Parents are busy farming

The darkness before dawn enveloped the earth, but the soldiers of the vanguard camp had already stood up and silently began to pack up their tents, preparing to embark on their journey home.

They were dressed in heavy armor; the cold metal texture blended with the chill of the early morning to form an indestructible line of defense.

Although the sky was not yet fully bright, the army already exuded a solemn and cold atmosphere, as if they were not afraid even when facing tigers and wolves.

As the sun gradually rose, the soldiers of the vanguard camp began to march towards the capital in an orderly manner.

Their steps were in unison, and each step was full of power, as if the whole earth was shaking under their feet.

Although they have not yet seen the shadow of the capital, they remain highly vigilant, not missing any details to ensure that their actions are flawless.

Ye Zifen got up in a hurry, without even having time to enjoy breakfast, and couldn't wait to put on a clean white suit, ride a horse, and gallop towards the north gate of the capital.

When she arrived, soldiers from the camp outside the capital were already on full alert, guarding the city gates tightly.

The soldiers were puzzled as to why such a beautiful woman would appear at the north gate in the early morning.

They received orders from the general to welcome the triumphant return of the vanguard battalion here today, and no one was allowed to approach.

An armored soldier walked up to Ye Zifen and said kindly, "Miss, no one is allowed to approach the North Gate today. Please leave as soon as possible."

There was a hint of curiosity in his eyes, but more of it was a firm determination to carry out the mission.

Ye Zifen nodded to the man and said, "I did come here on the orders of the Emperor to welcome the victorious return of the Vanguard Battalion."

When the man heard this, a look of doubt appeared on his face.

He didn't believe that such a matter would be handed over to a young girl, but he didn't dare to easily question whether there was a possibility of a false imperial decree.

After all, if the imperial edict was falsely conveyed, it would be a serious crime.

Moreover, this girl actually knew that the vanguard battalion would enter Beijing today, which shows that her source of information was very accurate.

Even if the order was not from the emperor himself, it must have been from a bold young lady in an official's family.

However, if it is the latter, the girl will probably have to suffer some hardships.

So, the man said to Ye Zifen, "Since the young lady is following the emperor's order, please wait for a while. The emperor and the civil and military officials will take some time to arrive. If... the young lady can leave on her own, we will just pretend that we have never seen her."

Ye Zifen smiled and nodded to show her agreement.

Then she sat quietly on the horse, looking north through the city gate.

Although there were only rolling hills in the distance and no other special scenery, she still stared intently in that direction, as if waiting for something important.

Seeing that Ye Zifen had no intention of leaving, the man believed what she said.

Time passed slowly, and before one knew it, an hour had passed. The entire capital city gradually came back to life, and the people of the capital city began to move around.

However, people are not allowed to walk freely on the main street of the capital today, and soldiers are guarding both sides of the road.

These soldiers blocked the people on the roadside, and the people curiously asked what had happened.

The soldiers did not hide anything and told them directly that the vanguard battalion had returned victoriously and that the emperor had come in person to welcome the vanguard battalion.

As a result, more and more people gathered on both sides of the road, and everyone was waiting together with anticipation.

They were eager to witness the victorious army, and some of them had never seen such a grand scene in their entire lives.

In order to witness this spectacular sight with their own eyes, the people would rather stay here and go hungry.

The place was crowded with people, but everyone's face was filled with excitement and anticipation.

I don't know who proposed to the Ministry of Rites that the triumphant army should circle most of the capital to show off the results of victory.

So, instead of originally expecting the army to march along the main road from the Archway to the North Gate, people now began to expect them to encircle most of the capital.

But unexpectedly, they actually entered from the North Gate, passed East Street and then went to South Street, and finally went back to the gate of the palace from West Street.

This disappointed those who had originally planned to watch the fun, but it also made more people excited.

For Fokel, this is undoubtedly a huge business opportunity.

We were ready to welcome the army, but found that the route had changed.

Therefore, the people at Fu Ke Lai, who originally had nothing to do and wanted to watch the army march into Beijing, had to continue their work.

Because all the rooms on the second and third floors near the windows were booked, and by powerful families, and the guests were female, they had to entertain them well.

In order to express his congratulations to the army and his respect for the country, Xiang Zhibo decided to take some special actions.

He took a piece of cloth that had been in stock for a long time from Yuanhang Cloth Shop and wrote these words on it: "Congratulations to the army for its triumphant return, and enhance the prestige of our Great Xia nation!"

Then he hung the cloth under the window on the second floor of the Fukelai so that people passing by could see it at a glance.

This action not only expressed Fukelai’s good intentions, but also attracted the attention of many people and became a beautiful landscape.

The red cloth was printed with black and gold words, which was dazzling and amazing.

How did Xiang Zhibo create such a unique ink?

The font was sharp and powerful, as if it was written by a master calligrapher.

Everyone was guessing, which master wrote this?

When Ye Zifen learned about this, she was speechless and didn't know how to express her feelings.

Finally, she decided to go back to the store and reward Xiang Zhibo handsomely. At this moment, Xiang Zhibo was working hard to coordinate everyone's room arrangements.

He knew very well that when the army arrived, all the guests at the Fukelai would witness the spectacular spectacle.

Therefore, he tried his best and used the internal relationships between the families that he had learned in advance to cleverly arrange several families with good relationships in the same room.

Of course, during this process, he also spoke a lot and said nice things.

Because Xiang Zhibo's arrangements were very appropriate, after today, Fukelai's status in the circle of these girls has risen to a higher level.

Originally, Fukelai mainly received noblemen, but from now on, noblemen and ladies like to go to two places: one is Wang Chuanjia’s horse farm, and the other is Fukelai.

Ye Zifen also made a lot of wealth from them, it can be said that she made a fortune.
