Victorious return from the 71st battle

  The matter soon reached the ears of the madam.

  The madam found it strange that it was precisely Cuiju. Could it be that Song Lingyu had already discovered the truth and then killed her to avoid trouble?

  In short, no matter what, we can't let Cuiju say another word, Cuiju must die!

  Song Lingyu also sent a message over, telling Lian Le to send someone in his own name to protect Cui Hua, and absolutely could not let her die.

  Afterwards, Lian Le sent a message back to report that the big madam had sent someone to kill Cui Hua, but was rescued by the person she had sent. Now everyone has retreated and it is unknown where Cui Hua will go.

  It has been three months since the war ended. The weather is also warming up a bit, and on this day, a hazy drizzle fell.

  Three days ago, scouts reported that the war had been won and the enemy had even ceded a city. The Fifth Prince has led his troops back to the city, and he brought someone with him.

  March 25th. The fifth prince returned to the imperial capital, bringing a person back from the battlefield.

  The emperor's eyes nearly popped out of his head as he looked at the man. Wasn't this the person who had proposed a plan for disaster relief?

  Lian Ziyu saw the emperor and said, "I suppose Your Majesty has already recognized him. This is Mu Xian Shi, who proposed a plan to provide disaster relief. This time, he helped our army repel the enemy, his merit is indeed not small!"

  The emperor smiled so much that his mouth couldn't close, and since the last time he came back from disaster relief, he hadn't seen his shadow, and he had been regretting it, saying that he didn't leave a single usable material. Today, I saw him again, and he even helped our army repel the enemy. This time, we must keep him!

  "Mu Xian, I didn't get to see you last time, and I truly felt regretful. This time, you've helped me greatly once again. As for this appointment, you can't escape it again."

  Mu Xiao nodded with a smile, then clenched his fists and said: "Yes."

  The emperor laughed haha, apparently he was very happy.

  Lian Ziyu glanced at Mu Xiaoqiu and smiled slightly. This person was brought back by him, so naturally he would be used for his own purposes!

  This time, they not only repelled the enemy but also captured a city. The emperor was overjoyed and held a grand banquet the next day to celebrate with his generals.

  The rain has stopped, and the air is filled with the sweet scent of mud and flowers.

  This dust-settling banquet, Song Lingyu naturally didn't need to attend. However, that early morning, Song Lingyu was summoned by the Sixth Princess into the palace, and Song Lingyu also took the opportunity to pay her respects to Empress Dowager Jiang.

  After leaving Jiang Taohua's palace, the Sixth Princess suddenly became enthusiastic and said she wanted to take a look at the people brought back by Lian Ziyuan from the battlefield, who would also be granted official titles.

  Song Lingyu couldn't outdo her and had no choice but to follow her.

  Lian Ping and Song Lingyu went up to a higher pavilion in the imperial palace, where they could see every single person clearly, even their faces, and expressions were all visible.

  Everyone took their seats, and Song Lingyu, who was sharp-eyed, saw that one position was empty, so she asked Lian Ping: "Why is there an empty seat? Is someone daring to be absent from the royal banquet?"

  Lian Ping stretched his neck to look in the direction Song Lingyu was pointing, then explained: "You mean that one? That position seems to be someone brought back by Fifth Brother from the border, and is also a great meritorious official."

  "Is it?" Song Lingyu asked back, her eyes never leaving that spot from start to finish.

  Since she was the one who brought Lian Zhen back, she naturally had to worry that he might become an obstacle for her in the future!
