A month and a half later, the victorious army returned to the capital of Chu.

People from all over the city lined the streets to welcome them.

When I left, it was still cold in late winter or early spring, and when I came back, it was already hot in midsummer.

The new emperor Chu Xin, Lord Lin and several important officials of the court personally greeted them at the city gate, which was enough to prove the importance they attached to them.

Of course, there are many familiar people.

Uncle Fu, Aunt Fu, Madam Lin, Madam Mu, the sisters in Yichun Building...

Regent Chu Yan was wearing armor and a helmet, still the same attire he wore when he went to war.

But the situation was completely different. What remained unchanged was his majesty and powerful temperament.

There is a carriage in the middle and soldiers on the sides.

Chu Yan, Mu Ningyuan, Yan Shu and others got off their horses.

Shen Yindi, Si Qi and others also got off the carriage.

"Your Majesty, your humble servant pays homage!" They saluted the emperor.

Chu Xin hurried over to help them up: "Third brother, Third sister-in-law, Lord Mu, please don't be polite!"

"Thank you for your hard work! Congratulations on your victory!"

"Everyone, go back to your house and rest first. I will host a banquet in the palace tonight to reward you all."

"Reward our brave and skilled soldiers tomorrow!"

Knowing that their journey was very tiring, Chu Xin didn't say much.

Shen Yindi looked at him. After not seeing him for half a year, he had grown a lot taller. He was already as tall as Chu Yan's shoulders, a boy of only twelve years old.

He also looks more calm and has a more imperial demeanor.

Chu Yao wore a veil and didn't want anyone to recognize her.

After all, she was married to the Kingdom of Nanyue as a peace agreement. It would not be good if she came back.

The soldiers went to the camp outside the city to rest.

The others returned to Chu Yan's palace. Lin Shuya returned home with her parents. She had been away for more than half a year, and she was on the battlefield. Mrs. Lin was worried.

She was finally relieved when she heard the news that they had won the battle.

Mrs. Mu felt relieved when she saw that her son and daughter-in-law were doing well.

Aunt Fu cried with joy when she saw Shen Yindi return safely.

Seeing this, Shen Yindi couldn't help but laugh, and hugged her to comfort her: "Aunt Fu, don't cry, haven't we returned safely? You should be happy!"

Si Qi also smiled and said, "That's right, and there shouldn't be any wars for at least fifty years! We can live and work in peace! We can also travel around! Aunt Fu, I missed your cooking so much in the past six months!"

Aunt Fu quickly wiped away her tears, a smile appeared on her face, and her voice was a little choked.

"I'm happy too! I'm glad to see you're all doing well!"

"Miss Qi'er wants to eat, I will make you a delicious meal later!"

It was noon when we returned to the imperial capital.

Aunt Fu was also surprised to see that Chu Yao, who had gone to marry a foreign prince, had returned. Although she didn't know what had happened, she was glad that she had returned.

"Princess Three, please live in this mansion from now on. This is your home."

"Okay, thank you Aunt Fu." Chu Yao's eyes were a little hot and she had a smile on her face. Uncle and Aunt Fu had not changed, and everyone treated her the same as before.

"I have packed up the room and have been waiting for you to come back. It is ready for you to move in any time."

When Aunt Fu learned that Chu Yun and Yan Shu were already together, she couldn't stop smiling.

Finally it came, otherwise she would have been anxious just watching it.

Chu Yue knew that they had returned today, so she quietly ran to the gate of the palace to see.

Seeing this, the sharp-eyed Shen Yindi told Chu Yun about it.

It just so happened that they were right at the door now, having walked all the way back from the city gate.

Chu Yun looked over and saw it too. She went over and pulled her over.

"Since Yue'er is here, why don't you come over? Why do you have to hide so far away and watch?" Chu Yun asked knowingly.

"Big sister, I..." Chu Yue didn't know what to say for a moment.

She actually thought that they probably didn't want to see her. She was very happy for their triumphant return, but she didn't want them to see her and spoil their fun.

"Okay, we are all sisters. Now that we are here, let's go back and have dinner together."

At this time, Shen Yindi also came over with a smile on her face: "Sister Yun is right, since we are here, we are all sisters, so don't be shy!"

"Come in, let's have lunch together," she invited warmly.

"Third Sister-in-law, I... am fine." Chu Yue was deeply touched.

They did not have any prejudice against her because of her mother and brother, and they still treated her sincerely and regarded her as their own sister.

When Chu Yao saw her, she also called out, "Second Sister."

"Yao'er, you're back too? That's great..."

When she knew that she was going to marry in her place and became a pawn, it was all her mother's trick.

Chu Yao smiled: "Yeah, I'm fine. How's the second sister?"

"It's fine now, I live a comfortable life. This is the life I want." Chu Yue said from the bottom of her heart.

"That's good."

Then they entered the palace together.

The originally deserted palace suddenly became lively because of their return.

Aunt Fu and Uncle Fu were preparing lunch.

Back in the familiar place, they relaxed instantly.

Before dinner started, Shen Yindi and Chu Yan returned to the room.

She helped Chu Yan take off his battle robe, thinking, he would probably never wear this robe again in his lifetime, right?

Chu Yan changed into casual clothes, held Shen Yindi's hand and sat down beside the bed.

Shen Yindi leaned in his arms, feeling really tired after all the traveling.

"My dear, are you going to the palace later?" She held his hand and played with it. It was rare for her to relax, and her voice became lazy.

"Yes. I have to report the situation in the northwest and everything I discussed with Nan Rufeng to the emperor."

"There is also the matter of Zhaoyue Kingdom. And let's take a look at what has been going on in the imperial capital of Great Chu over the past six months." Chu Yan did not hide anything from her and told her everything.

Shen Yindi pouted: "Alright, my husband is the regent now, and there are many things he needs to do."

"Don't worry. No matter how busy I am, I will make time to accompany you. Otherwise, my A Di will be angry with me. I'm going back. I..." His voice was muffled and aggrieved at the end.

Shen Yindi pushed him down on the bed and pressed down on him.

It’s starting again, right?

She held his face with both hands: "I have said ten thousand times that I will not leave! I am yours in life and your ghost in death. If you continue to act like a spoiled child like this, I will really be angry..."

A smile appeared on Chu Yan's lips.

He raised his head and kissed her lips: "Okay, listen to Adi."

"Hmph! Stop playing tricks!"

"Or I'll bite you—"

After all, he is the regent who is feared by everyone and second only to the emperor. How come he becomes a different person behind closed doors?

"Bite it, Adi, you can bite it as much as you want, or I can bite it too." As he said that, he turned over and pressed her down on him.

Without waiting for her to speak, he kissed her lips directly. Shen Yindi did not refuse at all, she closed her eyes and kissed him immersively.

The two of them stayed in the room for a while.

I only came out of the room during lunch.

Everyone sat together, talking and laughing. Mrs. Mu also stayed to eat.

Only Lin Shuya went back, after all, she also wanted to reunite with her family

Just now, while they were chatting with Chu Yue, they heard an unexpected news.
