In the 20th year of Jian'an, on the third day of August, King Liu Cong of Chu returned to Xiangyang with his army. The streets of Xiangyang City were empty again, and the people spontaneously went to greet him. All civil and military officials also went out of the city to welcome him, led by Shangshu Ling Jiang Wan and Zhongshu Ling Pang Tong.
"Have you heard? After Cao Cao was repulsed by the king, he went to Xiliang to fight against Liu Bei."
"Your news is out of date. Which day's newspaper did you buy? The latest news is that Liu Bei was defeated by Cao Cao's thieves and lost 80,000 troops!"
"Well, if you ask me, the one who can defeat Cao Cao and restore the glory of the Han Dynasty in this world must be our king!"
"Hey, this is wrong. Uncle Liu Huang is also a clan member of the Han Dynasty after all. He can work with the king to resist the Cao thieves."
"Bah! Not to mention that he originally wanted to split our Jingzhou, but this time he took advantage of the king's attack on Cao Cao to attack Nanzhong. Besides, Liu Bei has been chased and beaten by Cao Cao all his life, how can our Chu country count on him?"
…
Listening to the discussion of the people, Pang Tong smiled leisurely and said, "Gong Yan, the people of Xiangyang support the king. This is all due to you, the minister."
"Hahaha..." Jiang Wan pointed at Pang Tong and laughed, "Shi Yuan, you, the Zhongshu Ling, are also teasing me. With you fighting abroad and resisting foreign enemies, we can manage the rear with peace of mind."

Pang Tong suddenly felt regretful, "It's a pity that Chu did not fight the Wei army this time in Wancheng."
"Okay, don't be sorry. Cao Cao and Liu Bei are both here, and you, Pang Shiyuan, will have the opportunity to make contributions in the future." The one who spoke was Ma Liang with a serious face.
"Haha... borrow Ji Chang's auspicious words!"
"Hush!"
"Herod!"
While several people were talking, Xu Feng led his men on horseback and said breathlessly, "The king will be here soon, please evacuate the people first!"
Pang Tong, Jiang Wan and others looked at each other with doubts and worries, "General Xu, has something happened to the king?"
Xu Feng smiled bitterly and said, "Don't worry, the king is just eager to return, so he abandoned his chariot and rode back."
"Eager to return?"
Jiang Wan, Pang Tong and others were all smart people, and they figured it out immediately. Then Jiang Wan organized people to command the people.

Although Liu Cong had been left with a path to move forward, no one could bear the burden if anything happened while the horse was galloping without a chariot. He had to order the onlookers to stay away.
"The king has arrived!"
Dozens more knights came on horseback.
Not long after, a big flag appeared in the distance. More than a thousand knights separated on both sides, and Liu Cong rode at the forefront.
"Hush!"
"Herod!"
"I will pay my respects to the king!"
Liu Cong did not dismount, but waved slightly to everyone on horseback, "Gong Yan, Shi Yuan, Wen Wei, Ji Chang... I haven't seen you for a long time. I miss you very much."
"I also miss the king!"
Liu Cong laughed and said, "We, monarch and ministers, will reminisce about old times later. I will go back to the palace first to have a look."

"drive!"
After that, Liu Cong didn't wait for anyone to reply, clamped the horse's belly, tightened the reins, and rushed straight into the city!
"Wen Wei, why are you pulling me? Your Majesty, you ignored all the officials and welcomed the people and rushed straight to the palace. Your Majesty is being ridiculous!" Ma Liang looked at Fei Yi and others with some reluctance.
Jiang Wan smiled bitterly at Ma Liang's hasty temper, "Ji Chang, the king has not seen the queen and princes for more than a year. The king is eager to return, isn't it just to see his family as soon as possible? You, just accept it first You must be so hasty."
Hearing this, Ma Liang didn't say much anymore. The people also started talking one after another.
"Why is the king riding a horse?"
"Yes, why did he leave like that?"
"You two idiots, the king has been away on war for more than a year, why can't he go back to see his family first?"
"It should be, it should be so. The peace and stability in Dachu today are all due to the king."

"Cut those two lengths of red satin shorter and hang the lantern higher. Wang Gong, take your people to spread out more red carpet, and..."
In front of the Zhengyang Gate of the palace, Sun Shangxiang led Liu Cong's female family members and children to wait for Liu Cong. Sun Shangxiang has become more and more mature. It seems that he has the majesty of a queen and the charm of a young woman, and is still noble. With a bit of unruly nature.
"Quick, quick, quick! Follow the Queen's instructions and do it quickly!" After hearing Sun Shangxiang's instructions, Wang Gong quickly called a group of palace people to take action.
"drive!"
"drive!"
"Crack!"
At this moment, the sound of horse hoofbeats sounded, and the sound of Liu Cong scolding the horses and whipping the horses with a whip could be heard!
The Chu Palace in Xiangyang is located in the southernmost part of the city. It was expanded based on Liu Biao's Prefecture and Mufu Palace. To put it bluntly, Liu Biao originally arranged it this way to avoid the sharp attack from the north.
The streets near the palace were deserted. Sun Shangxiang, who heard the sound of horse hooves, looked back and saw hundreds of knights first.
Then, she saw Liu Cong surrounded by everyone. When she got closer, she could see clearly that Liu Cong was wearing armor and had an unshaven beard.

"I, my concubine/concubine, respectfully welcome your Majesty!"
"My child welcomes his father!"
The female family members led the children and palace people to kneel down one after another. Liu Cong slowed down his horse and walked straight towards the crowd.
"Pingshen!"
Liu Cong, who was riding on horseback, looked at Sun Shangxiang, whom he had not seen for more than a year, and his grin never closed. For some reason, he always wanted to smile when he saw Sun Shangxiang, it was the kind of happiness that came from the heart. Especially when we meet again after a long separation.
Sun Shangxiang suppressed his excitement and forced himself to speak, "Didn't you say you can't come back until dark?"
Seeing Sun Shangxiang's body trembling with excitement, Liu Cong smiled even more happily, "I miss you so much that I get sick, so I'll take the Clippers and go one step ahead."
These words immediately made Sun Shangxiang blush, and also caused the other women around to cast envious glances at Sun Shangxiang.
"ha!"
"Herod!"

"ah!"
Liu Cong suddenly tightened his grip on the horse's belly, and at the moment when the horse was just buffering, he leaned over and hugged Sun Shangxiang onto the horse's back.
"Go back to the palace!"
After leaving a few words, Liu Cong dragged Sun Shangxiang's slim waist and whipped the riding crop hard.
Finally, he threw away the riding crop, put one hand around Sun Shangxiang, grabbed her chin with the other, and gently smelled the fragrance in Sun Shangxiang's hair, "Xiangxiang, I miss you so much. Do you miss me so much?"
Sun Shangxiang couldn't hold back any longer. He smiled, but tears fell on his cheeks. He gently hit Liu Cong's chest with his elbow, "The children and sisters are all watching the death scene."
"Hush!"
"Herod!"
"This is the main hall where you discuss politics, why did you stop?"
Liu Cong didn't say anything. He pulled Sun Shangxiang off the horse and hugged him horizontally. At the same time, his four lips had already closed together.

The surrounding guards and maids quickly turned around.
Feeling that Sun Shangxiang no longer struggled in his arms, Liu Cong hugged her and almost felt no weight as he quickly climbed up the steps.
The maid guarding the door could still see the queen burying her head deep in the king's chest.
"Back off!"
After Liu Cong entered the main hall, he had already begun to pull Sun Shangxiang's clothes. The maids quickly closed the door of the main hall. After a while, a blushing voice came from inside.
"Liu Xiye, there is a bed in the side hall!"
"Bang!" It seemed like something was swept off the desk!
