Xiliang was defeated.

All that remains is peace talks.

Xie Jingyan did not need to worry about the peace talks. He was ready to have Xiliang hand over King Cheng to him and then set off for the capital.

However, King Cheng was only one of the conditions for Xiliang to exchange for General Zhenyuan. Before other conditions were reached, Xiliang refused to hand over King Cheng.

The negotiations were stuck there.

Xiliang did not care about the life or death of General Zhenyuan. It would be better if he died at the hands of the Great Chu. Xie Jingyan had no choice but to wait in the military camp for the Great Chu court to send people to the border for negotiations.

However, to Xie Jingyan's surprise, the person who came to negotiate from Xiliang was the Crown Prince of Xiliang.

And he also brought a generous gift to Xie Jingyan——

Xie Jingyin.

The prince of Xiliang captured Xie Jingyin and gave him to Xie Jingyan as a token of sincerity in the negotiations between Xiliang and Da Chu.

Xie Jingyan guessed that Xie Jingyin should be in Xiliang, and was still thinking about how to find him, but he didn't expect that the Prince of Xiliang had captured him.

This sincerity.

Full.

But no matter how sincere Xiliang was, Xie Jingyan would not agree to take back the two cities captured by Da Chu.

Those two cities were captured by the soldiers of the Great Chu at the cost of their lives. He would not be moved by such a small sincerity and give back the cities that the soldiers had exchanged their lives for.

He was quite kind in not pursuing the cause of the Xiliang prince's hiding, which led to the Xiliang army approaching the city and invading the Great Chu.

The Crown Prince of Xiliang also knew that Da Chu was not so easy to talk to, and Xie Jingyan was even less so.

But they have different positions. Even if they know it is impossible, they have to try their best. As the prince of Xiliang, he cannot watch the city of Xiliang fall into the hands of Da Chu.

The envoys from Xiliang waited for more than half a month, and the negotiations lasted for several more days, which aroused the temper of a certain gentleman.

He wanted to cut off King Cheng's head and use it to pay tribute to his mother's grave, but King Cheng's life was not enough for Xiliang to use to threaten him.

A traitor who surrendered to the enemy and committed treason, if Xiliang wants to keep him, then keep him!

He gave Xiliang one last day to negotiate.

If we still can't reach an agreement, let's see you on the battlefield!

Great Chu was ready for war. The Crown Prince of Western Liang knew Xie Jingyan's character, and he would do what he said. Although General Zhenyuan had ulterior motives towards the Western Liang court, when it came to leading troops in battle, no one in the Western Liang court could compare to General Zhenyuan. If it weren't for his eagerness to avenge his son, Great Chu would never have been able to capture General Zhenyuan alive.

Da Chu asked Xiliang to compensate for the war losses, but Xiliang disagreed.

The Crown Prince of Xiliang was also a victim of this war. If Xie Jingyan hadn't reminded him, he would have been more careful on the way back to Xiliang and asked the secret guards to disguise themselves as him. He would have been the one who fell off the cliff and died that day.

This war was jointly instigated by King Cheng of Great Chu and General Zhenyuan of Western Liang. Western Liang and Great Chu should each bear half of the responsibility. Not only do they not have to pay compensation, but Western Liang and Great Chu should clarify the cause of the war, shake hands and make peace, and Great Chu should return the cities in Western Liang that it had seized.

The two sides insisted on their own opinions and the negotiations failed after several attempts.

But under the threat of the enemy at the gates, the subsequent negotiations went much more smoothly.

This war was caused by the ministers of the two countries, so no one can blame anyone else.

Xiliang refused to compensate Dachu for the war losses it demanded.

Da Chu also refused to return the city of Xiliang.

Everyone should admit defeat.

Both sides will return those who have collaborated with the enemy and committed treason and deal with them accordingly.

This battle ends here.

Xiliang handed King Cheng over to Da Chu, and Xie Jingyan and the Prince of Yanping escorted King Cheng and Xie Jingyin back to the capital.

……

Mo Yuxuan.

Shen Wan was swinging on the swing.

Watching Jin'er stumbling as she walked.

The little guy learned to walk half a month ago, but he's not very steady yet, so we have to be careful to prevent him from falling.

Yin Shuang used a rattle to lead Jin Er to chase him. A little maid in a light green dress ran into the yard and said, "Princess, there's news from the palace saying that the prince and his companions will return to the capital in three days. The palace is holding a banquet to celebrate their success and welcome them back."

Finally I'm back in Beijing.

Shen Wan was very anxious. If she came back a few days later, her child would be born.

Shen Wan felt a little disappointed when she thought about the palace celebrating for Xie Jingyan and others.

She had gained weight and her waist ached badly after sitting for a while. Moreover, she was about to give birth and could not enter the palace, so she could not attend the celebration banquet.

If she had returned a month or two earlier, she would have been able to go to the city gate to welcome their triumphant return.

……

Three days later.

Xie Jingyan, Shen Du, and the Prince of Yanping returned to Beijing.

In this battle, General Zhenyuan of Xiliang was captured alive. Xie Jingyan became famous, and many people lined the streets inside and outside the city gate to welcome him.

Cheng Yao, Xu Huan and others even made an appointment to meet them at the city gate with their children in their arms.

Xie Jingyan looked around but didn't see Shen Wan.

Fortunately.

Shen Wan didn't come.

You have to come to greet him with a big belly.

He still has to worry.

Well, the Prince of Yanping, Tang Ze, Lu Cheng and Xu Ji all had sons.

No one has given birth to a daughter in this generation.

The only daughter was Lu Cheng's younger sister, born to the wife of Marquis Xuanping.

The Prince of Yanping and his companions could not take their eyes off their wives and sons, but with so many people watching, they forced themselves not to dismount and went into the palace for the banquet first. Although they could not see their sons at the banquet, they could still see their wives.

Walking all the way to the palace, when they reached the palace gate, a certain gentleman couldn't help but said, "You go to the palace first, I'll go back to the mansion first."

Without waiting for anyone to answer him, he rode away on his horse.

The soldiers all laughed.

They saw with their own eyes that a certain man doted on his wife excessively and vomited to death at the border.

It’s normal to miss your princess after not seeing her for so long.

Not to mention Prince Ling, who among them doesn’t want to?

But after that gentleman left, he did not show up again until the end of the celebration banquet.

It’s not that Xie Jingyan was so busy being with Shen Wan that he forgot to go to the palace for the banquet, but that he couldn’t take care of it.

Shen Wan thought he would not come back until the celebration banquet was over. When she saw him for the first time, she was ecstatic. Maybe she was too excited, and then -

Started.

However, Doctor Tao also said that twins rarely carry to full term, so he invited a midwife into the house a few days ago, saying that she could give birth at any time.

But Shen Wan didn't expect it to be such a coincidence.

Xie Jingyan walked towards her and wanted to hug her, but Shen Wan suddenly gasped in pain and raised her hand to stop him, "Don't move!"

Xie Jingyan said, "What's wrong?"

Shen Wan gritted her teeth and said, "I'm about to give birth!"

Why not give birth earlier or later, at this time? You really choose the right time.

The maids in the yard suddenly became flustered.

Xie Jingyan quickly carried Shen Wan into the house.

The maids who wanted to ask for the midwife asked for the midwife, and those who wanted to ask for Doctor Tao asked for Doctor Tao.

Besides, the palace held a banquet to celebrate the victory of the soldiers, but the emperor had arrived and Xie Jingyan had not yet arrived, so he was the only one missing.

It's unacceptable if the person hasn't arrived after three rounds of drinks.

Even if he misses his princess, it won't hurt to wait for a while. Can't he wait until the celebration banquet is over and then go back to be with her?

Thinking of his son going to the battlefield and worrying about the princess's morning sickness, the emperor was speechless and said, "Send someone to invite him."

Eunuch Yuan quickly sent someone to invite Prince Ling.

After all, he made the greatest contribution.

As a result, the person sent returned after a while and said, "Your Majesty, Princess Ling is in labor and is about to give birth. Prince Ling has to stay in the Ling Palace and cannot enter the palace for the banquet..."

emperor,"……"

Baiguan, "..."

Isn't the timing too coincidental?

The Right Prime Minister smiled and said, "Congratulations, His Majesty, on having another little grandson."

The emperor's annoyance immediately disappeared when he heard these words.

If you can’t come, then don’t come. My grandson is more important.

Although Xie Jingyan was not there, the celebration banquet continued.

The celebration banquet lasted for more than an hour. The emperor was happy and his ministers enjoyed themselves very much.

When the banquet was almost over, a palace maid came in to announce the good news, "Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty! Princess Ling gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl!"
