Chapter 365 Return to the capital

But Dajin's people were nearby, so he didn't say much. He looked back at the carriages that had changed horses, and with a command, he set off towards Sui'an City.

The war horse is Daxing, and the person who controls the horse is also Daxing, so the speed is also decided by Daxing.

Twice among them, those who followed Dajin were more or less uncomfortable, but they did not stop the team. Instead, they left people to "take care of" at various inns and then left again.

It is really strange to say that the team that hurried eastward and brought a large number of congratulatory gifts should have taken about two months to arrive.

 But they arrived outside Sui'an City in mid-June.

Looking at the three large gilded characters hanging high above the city gate, the eldest prince and the ninth prince had complex and tired expressions on their faces.

They had thought before that it would be best to wait here and there for a while, but it would be best to delay it until August, so that they could see the harvest in Daxing this autumn, and when they returned to Dajin, they would be able to take advantage of it. In these situations, there is a basis for improvement and modification.

But now, their efforts to fetch water from the bamboo basket were in vain. Even if they had the intention, they could only see the bustle of the lotus pond in midsummer and the greenery.

“Eldest Prince, Prime Minister Guo is already waiting at the inn, let’s go over now.”

The eldest prince rushed all the way. Although he was also someone who had marched and fought, such a powerful rhythm was still a bit too much to bear. But when he saw Gu Shaoyu on the opposite side, and even the soldiers behind him, all of them were... Although he is dusty, his face and spirit are in good condition, and I am filled with admiration and fear.

 “Okay, please, General Gu!”

Having said that, the entire team marched towards the city. The Ninth Prince, who had been cursing and cursing, was now sleeping unconsciously in the carriage. The flesh on both sides of his thighs was peeled off and bleeding, but it never recovered.

 Because the weather was very hot, there was also a tendency to become inflamed. The pain was so severe that he could not ride a horse, so he could only sit in the carriage specially prepared for him by Luo Yuan.

It was true that he was upside down, but as soon as he got on the carriage, he fell into a deep drowsiness, as if someone had given him some sweat medicine, and he couldn't wake up even if he screamed.

 So, when he first arrived in Cezhou, he was as strong as a bear, but now the Ninth Prince was as weak as if he had been hung from a tree in the sun for three days.

This was the first time that the eldest prince appeared in the capital of Daxing, so their unusual clothes, hairstyle and team attracted the attention of many people.

Especially after seeing Gu Shaoyu, everyone in Sui'an City shouted.

“General Gu is back! General Gu is back!”

Hearing this, the eldest prince couldn't help but look sideways at Gu Shaoyu. It could be seen that he had a serious face from beginning to end, and he didn't say many words.

Walking all the way north, in the northwest, you saw a posthouse.

The Prime Minister Guo mentioned by Gu Shaoyu was also waiting here with several ministers from the court. After seeing Gu Shaoyu and the eldest prince, he took two steps forward and said with a smile that was neither humble nor arrogant.

 “I’m very happy to have friends from far away. Guo Rubin has seen the envoy of Dajin.”

When Guo Xiang was old, he would have been in all kinds of pain in Dajin. How could he have such charm and performance? The eldest prince saw it and knew that this was the Feng Shui nourishment of Daxing. People, so I have a lot more thoughts in my mind.

After dismounting, he followed Guo Xiang’s example, clasped his fists and lowered his head slightly before speaking.

 “Bacchus has met Guo Xiang and has been waiting for a long time.”

"Your Majesty, you're welcome. This is the courtesy of our Daxing Dynasty. You have worked hard all the way. Please come into the post house. Everything is ready. In addition, I have brought two imperial doctors with me this time. Let’s diagnose and treat the Ninth Prince later.”

The eldest prince was slightly stunned, but he quickly understood and quickly replied with a smile. "The ninth brother is a little acclimatized, which makes Guo Xiang laugh."

 “The eldest prince is very polite, please.”

"please."

Then Guo Xiang took the eldest prince and walked inside, followed closely by Gu Shaoyu. As for the ninth prince, he was naturally carried into the post house, and the remaining congratulatory gifts were from Wei Lun and Ni Yang watched as boxes after boxes were put into the warehouse and two hundred soldiers were sent to guard the place, and then he felt relieved.

 After these congratulatory gifts are recorded in the Ministry of Rites, their Tiger Guards will be considered successful in completing the matter, so no one will take it lightly at this time.

 Enter the post house, the familiar environment hits your face.

It can be seen that Guo Xiang has prepared it very seriously. The furnishings inside are unique to the Kingdom of Jin. Therefore, when the eldest prince saw it, his smile became much more sincere.

"It is said that Guo Xiangwen can rule the world. He is really powerful! I like this very much."

“As long as the eldest prince likes them, these two maids were sent from the palace. They used to serve the concubine, so they are very good at serving. If the eldest prince needs it, they can stay by his side to serve them.”

Gu Shaoyu looked at the two strangers in front of him, and was quite puzzled by Guo Xiang's move.

What are the slaves doing who are rushing to deliver two warm beds?

 Want to spy on the eldest prince’s thoughts?

Before he could figure it out, he saw that the eldest prince had accepted it happily and said with satisfaction.

 “Thank you, Prime Minister, for your consideration. I like it very much.”

The two maids stood there, as if they were not talking about them, with a very calm attitude. One of them even slightly raised her eyes with excitement, and looked at the eldest prince with tenderness in her eyes.

Seeing this, the eldest prince had not been with a woman for a long time, so he naturally had some reaction.

Guo Xiang said without changing his expression.

"In that case, the eldest prince should rest first. In three days, your majesty will naturally summon envoys to see him. However, the ninth prince's injury..."

Mr. Guo was not afraid of what would happen if the Ninth Prince didn't show up. After all, it was just a polite word, and he had to say a few words to show his friendship as a landlord.

"It doesn't matter. Ninth brother came with me to see the local customs and customs of Daxing. I have the full authority to make the final decision regarding the congratulations!"

“Well, then, the eldest prince, let’s rest first. I’ll come back to bother you tomorrow!”

 “Mr. Guo, go slowly, General Gu, go slowly!”

After the three of them said goodbye, Guo Xiang and Gu Shaoyu went out. Before they stepped out of the yard, they heard the sound of women and men laughing inside. Seeing this, Gu Shaoyu was even more surprised and looked at Guo Shaoyu. Xiang's expression was full of doubts.

Guo Xiangze patted the back of his hand and said.

“Let’s go, won’t you have to rush back to Jinling City after the congratulations are over?”

His words successfully diverted Gu Shaoyu's mind. Yes, what he is most concerned about now is his wife's pregnancy, so what the golden prince wants to do is not something he can pursue.
