After binding the mistress system, raise cubs and train husbands in the mansion

At this moment, a soldier came running to report.

"Report!"

"Come in! What's wrong?"

"Your Majesty, here is the letter of surrender sent by the Southern soldiers."

"Oh? Submit it."

Tuoba Hong opened the letter and read its contents with Xie Bochen.

"Master, is there any fraud here?"

"That makes sense. Let the soldiers prepare for battle. If the enemy shows any abnormality, just shoot them."

"Yes!"

When everyone learned that the Southern soldiers were going to surrender, they did not dare to take it lightly, fearing that there was something fishy going on.

Both sides gathered their forces at the border.

The southern soldiers laid down their weapons and surrendered willingly. The person who presented the letter of surrender was none other than the eldest prince of the Southern Kingdom, who was also the only son of the Southern Kingdom’s emperor.

"I am Ge Shuli, the eldest prince of the Southern Kingdom. I am asking for surrender to the Great Zhou and Dongyue Kingdoms in exchange for the peace of the people of the three kingdoms. This is my eldest son, Ge Shuming, who is willing to be offered to the Great Zhou as a hostage."

"I have a younger sister who is still unmarried. I am willing to send her to Dongyue to marry him. I hope Emperor Tuoba and Commander Xie will accept it."

Tuoba Hong and Xie Bochen looked at each other, nodded, and ordered the soldiers to bring Ge Shuming over. But they still did not relax their vigilance.

"Since Prince Geshu is so sincere, please go to Dongyue in person to make peace with the marriage!"

"I will take the princess to Dongyue. May I ask if the Emperor of Dongyue is willing to take the princess as his consort?"

Tuoba Hong smiled and refused, "Prince Geshu is joking. The winner is the king and the loser is the enemy. How can the princess of the Southern Kingdom be sent to the royal family? Wouldn't it make the people of Dongyue laugh at us?"

"You!" Ge Shuli was obviously unhappy. Letting his sister become a concubine was already enough of a concession. What else did he want?

"What does Emperor Tuoba mean?"

Before Tuoba Hong could speak, Yuwen Ge volunteered, "This general is willing to marry the princess."

He couldn't let the emperor and the queen suffer any injustice, as they were their family's long-term meal tickets. He would just endure a little injustice and marry the princess.

"Hahaha!" Tuoba Hong was very satisfied with this kid, so he said, "Prince Geshu, are you willing to let the princess marry General Yuwen? If not, I'm sorry Dongyue cannot accept your surrender this time."

Ge Shuli looked at these people with gritted teeth. If Dongyue and Da Zhou had not joined forces, they would not have been defeated so badly!

Just as he was hesitating, a soldier came over and whispered in his ear, "Prince, Princess Jinshan said she is willing to marry General Yuwen, but there is a condition, this man cannot take a concubine."

"Is this what my sister meant?"

"Yes, my prince."

At this time, Princess Jinshan was sitting in a bedroom not far away, observing everything outside.

When she learned that she had become a princess married to a foreign country, she felt very disappointed. She didn't want to share a husband with other women, especially since this man had a harem with three palaces and six courtyards and countless concubines.

She had been well protected by her brother and father since she was a child, and she accidentally found out about the palace fighting. Her mother was worried that she would not have a good life after she went there.

Now, if I could marry a general as his wife, wouldn’t that be better than being an insignificant concubine of the emperor?

After Geshuli put forward his sister's suggestion, Yuwen Ge agreed without hesitation.

After careful discussion, the three parties reached a peace agreement, agreeing that they would not resort to violence against each other for 20 years. They hoped that the people could live in peace and look forward to the arrival of the Kaiyuan Prosperity.

After everything was arranged, Xie Bochen and Tuoba Hong split their troops into two groups and returned to the capital.

"Master, I leave my mother and cousin to you, as well as my second sister's future life..." Bai Chen choked up instantly.

"Don't worry, Chen'er, I will never let them down."

……

Big week.

When Murong Yan learned the good news, the emperor was very pleased.

The ministers below the stage bowed and said, "Your Majesty is wise!"

"Hahaha! When my soldiers come back, I will definitely reward them handsomely."

At this time, he still didn't know the news of Bai Jin's death. Xie Baichen was afraid that the emperor would reject his approach, so he could only execute first and report later.

A month later, the Great Zhou army returned to the capital.

The people had already gathered in the city to welcome their arrival.

When Shiyun learned that her husband was coming back, she came with her two children and servants.

"Look! Commander Xie is back. Who's behind him?"

"I heard that he was the only legitimate son of the Southern Kingdom's eldest prince, and was sent here as a hostage."

"Thank you, Commander-in-Chief, for your ability."

"That's it."

When Shi Yun saw Bai Chen, he waved to him.

The two children also shouted excitedly, "Dad! Dad!"

Hearing this, Bo Chen finally showed a smile on his silent face, "Yun'er, why are you here? The streets are chaotic, go home quickly, I'll be back soon."

"Daddy, hug me!"

He held the two children in his arms, one in each hand.

"Where's Bai Jin?" Shi Yun looked around but didn't see her.

Hearing the name of the second sister, Bo Chen's face instantly fell, "Second sister, second sister, she is gone..."

Shi Yun opened her mouth halfway, tears welling up in her eyes. That was the sister she grew up with, and she was gone just like that?

"Okay, take the child back first. I'll go to the palace first."

"Okay." Shi Yun took the children and said nothing more.

Bo Chen asked the other soldiers to rest first and wait for news, while he and General Zheng went into the palace to meet the emperor.

"This general pays homage to His Majesty!"

"General Xie, General Zheng, please stand up quickly! Hahaha! You two have made great contributions to this great victory! Tell me, what do you want? I will satisfy you all."

"I thank the emperor for his grace!"

Murong Yan looked back, frowned, and asked, "Where is Military Advisor Xie? Why didn't she come with you two to the court to see me?"

When this question was raised, Bai Chen and General Zheng looked at each other and lowered their heads silently.

"Your Majesty, Military Advisor Xie...died in battle!"

"What?" Murong Yan was shocked.

Not only the emperor was shocked, but all the civil and military officials in the court were extremely shocked. This incident was not mentioned in the victory report.

Xie Boyuan, who was standing in front, looked at his brother in surprise. His sister was dead? This was impossible! She was the only one in the family with the strongest vitality. Didn't Yunyan say that she would protect her? How could this happen?

"What about her body? I want to check it myself."

Bo Chen knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I will make a decision on my own and send my second sister back to Dongyue to reunite with her mother."

"How dare you! Military Advisor Xie is a general of the Great Zhou, how could you send him to Dongyue? Who gave you the courage?"

"I am willing to accept the punishment. Please don't implicate the Xie family and other soldiers. This was done by me alone."

"presumptuous!"

Seeing this, General Zheng also knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, please calm down and listen to what I have to say."

"Say!"

"It was Military Advisor Xie's own decision to follow Emperor Tuoba back to Dongyue. She had already given the suicide note to Commander Xie before she left for the battle."

"Your Majesty, the dead are the greatest. Moreover, the military advisor is Commander Xie's biological sister. How can he not agree?"
