The daughter of a general is reborn to save the whole family of the marquis

The emperor was in a good mood, and he highly recognized Chu Runxue, so he patiently answered her questions: "General Chu met a miracle doctor, and a miracle happened. His legs have been cured."

He added: "It is fortunate that General Chu's legs were healed, otherwise this battle might not be won."

He also said: "The Chu family is indeed capable. The lame old general was able to go to the battlefield and not be defeated; Shu Xiao, who was brought out by General Chu himself, captured the second prince of Northern Zhou alive; the weak fourth son was able to lead 5,000 soldiers across the desert and directly reach the enemy's rear camp."

The more the emperor thought about it, the more he felt that the Chu family was really powerful.

When talking about this battle, the emperor talked endlessly, as if he wished he could be there in person.

The resentment that had been weighing on my heart for more than ten years was finally released.

The emperor thought that in a few years, he might be able to destroy the Northern Zhou. Once the Northern Zhou was destroyed, the enemy countries in the south and west would not dare to act rashly, and might even come to congratulate Daqi.

"When General Chu and his men return triumphantly, I will reward them greatly!" The emperor spoke in a cheerful voice. He was immersed in great joy and did not notice the subtle expression on Chu Runxue's face.

Chu Heyi turned his head and looked at Chu Runxue.

The light in the yard was dim, and only half of Chu Runxue's face was hidden in the darkness, so her expression could not be clearly seen.

But Chu Heyi could feel that Chu Runxue's aura was very calm, and she seemed to have accepted this result easily.

Chu Runxue has been coveting the 300,000 troops in the northern border for a long time. When Dongfang Shuo was away on the expedition, he was determined to plunder the money of major merchants, just to feed the loyalty of the 300,000 soldiers to Dongfang Shuo in the future.

Now that things have taken such a huge turn, Chu Runxue can actually remain so calm. This level of composure is something that not everyone can achieve.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty. Congratulations, Your Majesty." Chu Runxue's voice rang out in the dim light: "This is a great victory, and we have captured the second prince of Northern Zhou alive. This will surely bring many years of peace to the northern border of Daqi."

Chu Heyi could tell that Chu Runxue's voice was filled with joy.

It seemed that Dongfang Shuo’s defeat alone would not affect the overall situation, and Chu Runxue would still be happy for the final victory.

The emperor was obviously pleased with her words and laughed out loud.

After he left, he sent people to deliver a lot of silks, satins, and jewelry to Changqing Palace, and everyone got a share.

The imperial physician had checked everyone's pulse and found no major problems, so he simply prescribed some prescriptions to dispel the cold and strengthen the body. The second lady also asked the maid to boil some ginger soup, and everyone drank it and went to sleep.

The next morning, the emperor arranged for the guard commander Yin Shao to personally lead the team to escort them home.

There were only three or five carriages when they went out, but there were more than ten carriages when they came back. Except for the first few carriages which were filled with people, the rest of the carriages were filled with rewards from the emperor. The scene was extremely grand.

Everyone in the street stopped to watch.

"The battle in the north was won. The emperor ordered people to escort the entire Zhenbei Marquisate back home. It was a grand scene."

"This is what the Zhenbei Marquisate deserves. The Northern Zhou has been rampant for a long time, and it took General Chu to lead the troops to defeat them."

"General Chu lost his legs earlier, and everyone said that Daqi would lose the battle in the northern border. Who would have thought that they would win in the end? After all, they are a member of the Chu family."

The discussion reached the inside of the carriage.

Chu Heyi and Chu Runxue were riding in the same carriage, and they could hear the sounds outside clearly.

"Hey, I heard yesterday that His Royal Highness King Cheng would lead the soldiers of the Northern Territory to victory this time. He was so sure of it, but guess what happened?"

"As a result, His Royal Highness King Cheng's entire army was annihilated, and the 50,000 soldiers who followed him all died tragically."

"What a pity! When this news came, my neighbor next door was worried that their child was in His Royal Highness Cheng Wang's team. Now the whole family is worried."

"Your Highness King Cheng is incompetent and has done great harm to others."

"The other teams were victorious, even the lame old general won the battle, but only His Royal Highness King Cheng, whose limbs were intact, was completely wiped out!"

"With this ability, you still have the nerve to spread false news, saying that he can win the battle? The people around His Royal Highness King Cheng are not good enough."

Chu Runxue clenched her hands into fists, hidden in her wide sleeves.

She had thought that Dongfang Shuo would return victorious in this war, so she had been building up momentum for him yesterday. However, she had never imagined that her actions would make King Cheng's reputation of defeat even worse.

Now, people on the streets are spitting on Dongfang Shuo for killing 50,000 soldiers, and are also mocking the people around him for spreading the news that he will win and building momentum for him. It is really disgusting.

Chu Runxue's heart seemed to be soaked in blood.

The carriage arrived at the Zhenbei Marquis' Mansion, and the wife of Anyuan Marquis, along with her entire family, were waiting at the gate.

When he saw them coming, he hurried forward to greet them, asked about their well-being, and personally took out gold ingots to invite Yin Shao and the others to have tea.

Yin Shao ordered his men to personally move the emperor's reward to the hall of the Zhenbei Marquis's Mansion. He bowed and left only after he was done.

"Sister-in-law, when I learned this morning that you would be returning home today, I came here early and asked the people in the mansion to clean and tidy up, and also asked them to prepare lunch." The wife of Marquis Anyuan was very considerate.

The second lady thanked him repeatedly.

The wife of Marquis Anyuan said, "We are all family, why should we be so polite? Besides, my second brother and two nephews won the battle, I am really happy, this is the honor of our Chu family."

The second lady responded with a smile.

After they chatted for a while, Marquis Anyuan came to Chu Runxue, held her hand and tried to calm her down. The mother and daughter didn't say much.

This lunch at the Zhenbei Marquis' Mansion was arranged by the wife of Anyuan Marquis, and she also stayed at the Zhenbei Marquis' Mansion for lunch.

After lunch, he helped the second wife sort out the emperor's rewards and record them in a book. He was very busy.

Chu Runxue made the excuse that she was not feeling well and went back to rest, so Lady Anyuanhou asked Hanlu to escort her back.

Chu Heyi told Nanny Rui something and went back to his room to rest.

After Lady Anyuan Hou and the Second Lady finished sorting out the things, they drank a sip of tea and prepared to go back to visit Chu Runxue and comfort her. After all, her fiancé Dongfang Shuo had suffered a defeat and now had a bad reputation, and Lady Anyuan Hou felt very sorry for her.

Rui Ma Ma came over at this moment and said, "Madam, Miss He Yi received the purple bamboo shoot tea personally awarded by the emperor in the palace. Please go and taste it."

When Lady Anyuan Hou heard this, she thought of what Chu Heyi had said to her on the morning they entered the palace, and her heart tightened. The tea tasting was fake, and what Chu Heyi had to say to her was real.

"I'll go right away." Anyuan Houfu stood up and followed Nanny Rui to Chu Heyi's room. Nanny Rui made a cup of purple bamboo tea and placed it next to Anyuan Hou's wife.

Mrs. Anyuan Hou held the tea, a little nervous, and her smile was unnatural: "The feng shui in the palace is good for health. Heyi looks much fairer and more handsome. I wonder if there is anything interesting in the palace. Can you tell me?"

This was a question to Chu Heyi as to what he wanted to say by calling her here.
