After traveling to ancient times, I relied on my husband to win

After watching this scene of deep affection between grandparents and grandchildren, Li Dequan coughed loudly twice to attract attention, then said with a smile.

"The deep affection between the Grand Secretary and Miss Chen is touching, but the Emperor has given an oral order. Chen Ti accepts the order!"

Chen Ti pulled Chen Yuetong, whose eyes were slightly red, to kneel down and present the ring.

"The minister accepts the order."

"The Emperor issued an edict: Chen Ti's crime of disobeying the Emperor's will is one level higher, but considering that he had a reason for doing so and was concerned about the people in his hometown, the death penalty can be spared. However, he cannot escape the punishment of life and death. His position as Grand Secretary is revoked, and he is demoted to a commoner. He is to return to Shandong immediately and is not allowed to enter the capital for the rest of his life. This is my decree!"

"I obey your order." Chen Ti received the order tremblingly.

"Grandmaster, the emperor is tolerant. You should prepare to return home early. But don't anger the emperor again. If you do, it won't just be you who will suffer, but your granddaughter..."

Chen Ti naturally understood the unspoken meaning. He was indeed reckless this time. "Thank you, Eunuch Li, for reminding me."

Chen Yuetong took out her purse with great tact and handed it to Li Dequan, "Your Excellency, you have worked hard in proclaiming the decree. This is a small token of my appreciation. I would like to invite you to have some tea."

Li Dequan accepted it and looked at Chen Yuetong with admiration, "Grand Scholar Chen has a good granddaughter."

After hearing this ambiguous sentence, Chen Ti knew that his granddaughter could not stay in Beijing.

After Li Dequan took his men away, Chen Ti ordered his servants to pack up and prepare to return to his hometown in Shandong.

Let Chen Yuetong go back to her room and pack some valuables so that she won’t be missing anything when the time comes.

Chen Yuetong went back to her room to pack her things. She didn't have much stuff so she finished packing quickly.

Now when she has free time, she thinks of the person who made her feel fond of him. This separation may be forever.

She was about to leave, but she still had friends here. Finally, she told her grandfather that she was going to say goodbye to her friends and left the house with Hongyu.

Chen Yuetong held a banquet at Zuimanlou to bid farewell to them.

Qin Yan brought Jiang Zhi over, Cheng Ziyan and Rong Jiuxuan came from Ninglufang, and Lin Bingyuan was sent over by Gu Yanjin.

Li Chengze also came. He had been worried about Chen Yuetong. Now hearing that she was leaving, he felt very sad. However, he wanted to ask her in person, but he didn't know what to ask.

In the private room, Chen Yuetong said that she would leave for her hometown tomorrow. Everyone else at the table was reluctant to do so, but since this was the emperor's order, they could not say anything.

I can only wish her a safe journey.

Li Chengze drank silently throughout the whole process, and looked at Chen Yuetong sadly from time to time.

Chen Yuetong generously thanked Li Chengze for helping her when she was most helpless and for helping her find out about her grandfather. She was really grateful.

The gathering was very depressing, and the pain of separation was in everyone's heart.

After it was over, everyone said goodbye and left, and Chen Yuetong saw everyone off.

Li Chengze, who was standing at the end, wanted to ask Chen Yuetong after everyone had left, "Yuetong, are you here voluntarily? If you don't want to leave, I can ask my father, he..."

Chen Yuetong interrupted him and bowed slightly, "Your Highness, I would like to thank you for your help to Yuetong. Yuetong will leave with grandfather tomorrow and has no reluctance. Yuetong is very grateful that the prince cares about Yuetong, but Your Highness should not embarrass the emperor for Yuetong. I will be very grateful if the emperor is willing to release grandfather Yuetong."

Li Chengze took a step forward and said fiercely, "But Yuetong, if you leave, then we may never see each other again in our lifetime. You know how I feel about you. If you don't want to leave, I can ask my father to grant us a marriage..."

Chen Yuetong didn't want Li Chengze to become irrational, so she interrupted his unrealistic fantasy, "Your Highness! That's enough, stop talking. Your Highness, I am naturally happy that I like you, but we are not destined to be together, so let's stop here. I can't abandon my grandfather and stay alone in this huge capital. This place doesn't belong to me."

Chen Yuetong said her final farewell, "Your Highness, we will never meet again after this separation. I hope you are all well."

"From now on, please do not send me any more letters, as there is no proof of love and sex in the painted building."

That’s it!

Chen Yuetong left after she finished speaking, leaving Li Chengze with only a resolute back.

Li Chengze watched him go, feeling grief-stricken beyond words, and returned to the restaurant to drink away his sorrow.

Finally, she was brought into the palace. On the second day, when Chen Yuetong left, she looked back at her friends who were seeing her off at the city gate, but the familiar figure was missing.

Although there were regrets, regrets are common, so I said goodbye and got on the carriage to leave the place where I grew up.

It was already afternoon when Li Chengze woke up from the palace. He wanted to see Chen Yuetong off, but when he hurriedly stood up, he was told that she had already left.

The shoes in Li Chengze's hand slipped to the ground, and he couldn't even see her for the last time.

Li Chengze became depressed over the next few days, and the Queen, Li Qingyang and Li Runyan all came to persuade him.

The emperor was even more disappointed with the child.

But before the emperor could deal with this rebellious son, good news came from the border.

Report!

Emergency at the border!!

Emergency at the border!!

The imperial court, which had just breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly became nervous. It turned out that it was the Jin people that Qin Yan and his party had encountered at the border before. Their plan to seize fine salt had failed and they were beaten back.

Now they are advancing again, starting to frequently provoke the border defenses and challenge Tobu's bottom line.

The generals at the border had written a letter long before the Jin army was about to make a move, and had it delivered to the capital at full speed.

In the court, all the ministers were furious when they heard the Jin people's repeated provocations.

Cheng Lao Hu's eyes widened, and he gnashed his teeth. "How dare you, a savage little country, challenge Dongwu? It seems that I didn't beat them hard enough last time, you son of a bitch, this time I will beat you so hard that your mother won't recognize you."

The other generals also agreed.

"Yeah, I beat him so hard he was pissing and shitting himself, let's see if he can still act recklessly."

"Just do it to him. Whoever backs down is a bastard."

There was a commotion, all of which were officials cursing the Jin people. They were really looking for trouble, and they would feel anxious if they were not beaten for a day.

Cheng Lao Hu was even more direct, asking directly, "I, Cheng Lao Hu, am willing to lead the troops to attack the Jin people!!"

Other military officers also requested, "I am willing to go!"

Cheng Ziang also passionately petitioned to join the army.

The emperor felt very relieved when he saw the ministers petitioning below.

These are all his Dongwu soldiers, all men of blood.

"Good! You are all my good sons and daughters of Dongwu. I am very pleased!"

Finally, the emperor appointed Cheng Lao Hu as marshal, Ye Wei and Cheng Ziang as vanguards, and some veteran generals to assist Cheng Lao Hu.

After deciding on the candidates, they began to reorganize the numbers and the entire army set out.

The emperor came to the prince's palace after leaving court. Looking at the unkempt prince, the emperor was angry at his lack of fighting spirit.

The emperor thought that if he gave the prince a few days, he would grow up after this incident, but now he is a little disappointed.

He calmly said to Li Chengze, who was not sober yet, "You will also go on this expedition. You will not be treated as a prince, so you should start as a soldier. I was too lenient with you in the past, which made you indecisive now. Consider this as training."

After saying this, he waved his sleeves and left. He didn't want to see his prince in such a decadent state.
