  Chapter 298

   King Jing would not be overwhelmed by the sight of victory, even if Emperor Tai'an's voice was choked, he didn't believe that the emperor could really cry with excitement.

   "It is the duty of the ministers and younger brothers to share the worries of the emperor."

   King Jing's performance made Emperor Tai'an quite satisfied. The two brothers had a warm and friendly chat, one got on the dragon chariot and the other got on the war horse, and the mighty team walked towards the city.

  The wide streets were swept in advance, and the streets were crowded with ordinary people welcoming the triumphant soldiers.

   Accompanied by the festive drum music, the team is getting closer.

  The people cheered, and countless flowers were thrown at the soldiers who were either serious or proud or smirking.

   The yamen who maintained order did not forget to remind: "Don't throw plums and melons!"

   In a teahouse facing the street, Qi Qiong put his hands on the railing, trying to find his brother.

   "Alright, did you see my big brother?"

   "I see." Lin Hao stretched out his hand and pointed his eyes firmly on the tall and straight figure, "Where is it?"

   "It's still your sharp eyes." Qi Qiong covered his mouth and chuckled, "Ah, do you have a good relationship with my elder brother?"

  Lin Hao smiled: "It mainly depends on where the flower rain falls the most."

  Qi Qiong was stunned for a moment, and when he reacted, he was greatly shocked: "Ah, although that is my eldest brother, let's not be like this...cough, bragging, right?"

Lin Hao put one hand on the railing at will, and explained with a smile: "The first thing people notice are people who ride cars and horses. The higher the status of these people, the higher the status, and they are often not young. Ah Shuo is just young. Chic and romantic, it is reasonable to attract more flowers and fragrances."

   Qi Qiong shook his head: "With your analysis, no matter how elegant it is, it becomes boring."

  Lin Hao chased his sweetheart with his eyes, but sighed in his heart: Love poems are all deceptive, if he really has a heart, why doesn't Ah Shuo take a look here?

  Thinking like this, the young general on the horse looked over.

  Xu was guilty because he suddenly realized that his complaint was wrong. Lin Hao didn't know what he was thinking when his eyes met, so he was short and hid.

  The young man on the horse's back turned from nervous to shocked.

  What are you doing!

   Until Ma'er went all the way, Qi Shuo still looked back to look for Lin Hao, so that some little ladies misunderstood and threw all the objects that could be caught screaming.

   "What about the eldest sister throwing a hidden weapon? Don't throw the hairpin!" The yamen who found it warned loudly.

   The girl standing beside the woman covered her hair and stomped her feet: "Sister, what you threw is my hairpin!"

  In the teahouse, Qi Qiong was no less shocked than his brother: "Ah, what are you hiding?"

  Lin Haomian regained his composure: "I didn't hide, my mask fell off."

   Qi Qiong: "..." Her upbringing did not allow her to expose it on the spot.

   "I'm thirsty, let's go back to the room for tea." The person who wanted to see walked away, and Lin Hao lost his interest in standing outside and basking in the sun, so he took Qi Qiong back to the elegant room.

   And until Qi Shuo entered the hall where he entertained the officials, his heart still fell on the teahouse facing the street.

   Is it because he didn't reveal the plan in advance, which made Ah very worried, so she was angry?

   Apart from this, he couldn't think of the reason why Lin Hao hid as soon as he saw him.

   "Prince, prince—"

   Qi Shuo came back to his senses and looked at a general holding a wine glass.

   The general's surname was Zhu, and he was a person who returned to Beijing on behalf of General Xu. As for General Xu, he stayed in the north to deal with post-war affairs, and could not return for a short period of time.

   "The Northern Qi can die so quickly, thanks to the heir, I'll give you a cup of honor to the heir." General Zhu looked at Qi Shuo with excitement.

  Prince Jing's contribution was unknown to many soldiers, but General Xu only revealed a thing or two to him before he left. Looking at Prince Jing again, his feelings are completely different.

   "General Zhu is overrated." Qi Shuo raised his glass and touched General Zhu's glass.

   Emperor Tai'an sat on the high platform and had a panoramic view of the interaction between Qi Shuo and the general next to him, his eyes flashed.

  The palace maids in high buns and robes swayed and revolved in the hall to the sound of drums, and everyone's faces were filled with joyful smiles.

  The atmosphere is in a controlled enthusiasm.

   When the feast was over, Emperor Tai'an kept King Jing and Qi Shuo behind.

   "I really didn't expect that the fifth brother fought so beautifully in this battle."

   King Jing didn't drink too much, and said hurriedly: "It's all thanks to the emperor's brother, and General Xu and other soldiers who gave up their lives and forgot to die."

   Emperor Tai'an glanced at Qi Shuo and said with a smile: "In my opinion, Shuoer's design to take Wuye's life is the key to quelling the war so quickly. How could Shuoer's great contribution be ignored?"

   King Jing laughed and said, "Isn't it supposed to be my nephew to solve the troubles for my uncle? What is there to say?"

   Emperor Tai'an looked at Qi Shuo: "Don't listen to your father. Now that you are back in Beijing, let me know if you have any errands you like."

"My nephew is a lazy person. I finally came back from the north and wanted to take a good rest. If the royal uncle wants to reward my nephew—" Qi Shuo paused, and with King Jing's sharp eyes, he smiled, "Wait for my nephew. During the big wedding, it would be great if the royal uncle could give him a generous gift."

   Emperor Tai'an was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "This is natural, my nephew is getting married, and the uncle should have prepared a generous gift."

   "The nephew thanked the royal uncle in advance."

   Emperor Tai'an asked about something he had been curious about for a long time: "Fifth brother, Wu Ye's nephew, Wu Li, was captured alive at that time. How did you come up with the idea of ​​700 horses?"

   Really dare to speak, he is not so arrogant as an emperor.

   Hearing Emperor Tai'an mention this, King Jing glanced at his son vaguely.

   This number was estimated by Shuoer, and he was actually very nervous at the time. But in front of the emperor, there is no need to mention Shuo'er's participation.

   Shuo'er is still too young, it is not a good thing to give the emperor the impression that he is good at guessing people's hearts.

King Jing smiled and said: "My younger brother has been in the north for so many years, and I have met Wu Ye many times, and I still know a little bit about him. This man has always treated Wuli Xiaoer as his own son, and he has seven hundred war horses. In exchange for the life of a nephew who is better than a parent, he will definitely be willing."

   "How did the three thousand war horses become five thousand, plus two horse farms?" This is what Tai'an was even more curious about.

  The previous seven hundred war horses could still be said to be Kuro's selfishness, but this time later, it could not be selfishness anyway.

   "This is easier."

   "Simple?" Emperor Tai'an became more and more curious as he looked at Prince Jing, who had a strange expression.

King Jing blinked and lowered his voice: "My brother told the envoys of Northern Qi that they can send more war horses, so they can return the child. The Northern Qi army was defeated like a mountain because of this son. So I agreed to…”

   Emperor Tai'an couldn't hold back, and burst out laughing.

   Of course he knew that the "Wei Li" who killed Wu Ye was actually Qi Shuo's disguise.
