The princess is so powerful that the fish pond is full of people
Chapter 400: Tired
Liang Chongyue rode his horse all the way back to the capital, and when he arrived at the city gate, it was already three o'clock in the morning.
As soon as the horse stopped, the city gate opened from the inside. Liang Chongyue originally thought that the soldiers guarding the city were going to open the gate for inspection. However, the moment the gate opened, the one walking in front was his grandfather with gray hair.
The moonlight tonight is pretty good. It is snowing in the capital. The moonlight is shining on the white ground, and the night is not so dark anymore.
My grandfather is not wearing any armor today, his temples are gray, and you can see the fatigue in his eyes and brows at a glance.
The first time Liang Chongyue saw his grandfather, he wanted to get off the horse, but his lower body was frozen from the long journey, and he almost fell to the ground when he got off the horse. Fortunately, his grandfather arrived in time and helped him up.
"grandfather."
After Liang Chongyue stood still, he looked up and saw the bruises under his grandfather's eyes. One of his hands was still on Xiang Jingchuan's body. Liang Chongyue didn't know what to say for a moment.
"It's okay, it's okay, Grandfather knows everything, Chongyue has worked hard all the way."
Hearing his grandfather's comforting voice, Liang Chongyue felt a lump in his nose, his eyes reddened, and he almost burst into tears, perhaps because of the cold wind that had blown all the way.
When people meet their closest relatives, they always unconsciously take off their disguises and reveal their most vulnerable side.
Liang Chongyue turned her head, quickly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and helped her grandfather lift Xiang Jingchuan's body off the horse.
The corpse was almost stiff in this cold weather, but fortunately, it was protected by the golden elixir. After laying the corpse flat, it would lie flat in a short while.
Xiang Jingchuan's body was placed on the carriage. Liang Chongyue wanted to ride the horse directly back to the palace, but was stopped by his grandfather.
"Your Majesty already knows, so this night won't be a problem. Go back and have a good night's rest. Come back to the palace tomorrow. Your mother and grandmother are all well."
When her grandfather tried to persuade her, Liang Chongyue's trouser leg was bitten tightly by the system. The system followed her all the way back. She would change a horse every time she arrived at a place. The system only had four legs and it had been running with her for nearly a month. It was also very hard.
"Chongyue understands. Grandfather, don't worry. Chongyue will definitely let grandmother and my aunts return home as soon as possible."
Xiang Jinsong looked at Chongyue, who had suffered at the border for the past four months. Thousands of words were stuck in his throat. In the end, he could only pat her shoulder with relief:
"Although His Majesty didn't blame your mother and the Xiang family too much, it is still a crime of deceiving the emperor. You will inevitably be punished when you return to the palace tomorrow. Take it well, endure it, and this matter will be over."
Hearing the worry in his grandfather's tone, Liang Chongyue smiled and consoled him:
"Grandfather, don't worry. Father is reluctant to punish me severely. I will go back first. Grandfather, please take good care of my cousin."
After Liang Chongyue finished speaking, he glanced at the closed carriage, jumped on his horse, and drove ahead.
When Liang Chongyue returned to her princess mansion, she didn't need to knock on the door. The system stood at the door and called out. After a while, the door was opened from the inside, and the first person standing there was still Jing Suiyang.
Liang Chongyue was already extremely tired. He dismounted and was immediately greeted by a sedan chair. The horse was led away, and when Liang Chongyue sat in the sedan chair, he collapsed on it.
"Send someone to fetch Yunling and prepare hot water. This princess needs to bathe and change clothes."
After saying that, Liang Chongyue glanced at the messy haired system beside him:
"Give the puppy a good bath too. He's suffered a lot along the way."
The system was taken away. Liang Chongyue entered the bathroom as soon as he arrived at Changshengtian. The hot air in the bathroom was filled with a faint fragrance.
Liang Chongyue stayed in the bathroom for half an hour. When he came out, he felt refreshed and felt like he was alive again.
Looking at the table full of delicacies, Liang Chongyue always felt as if something was missing. Liang Chongyue thought for a while, then turned his head to look at Jing Suiyang who was standing by:
"Isn't the puppy finished his bath yet?"
"Your Highness, the puppy fell asleep halfway through the bath. Calculating the time, he should still be warming himself by the fire."
When they were in the tent, Liang Chongyue would share half of whatever he ate with the puppy. Now that it is not here, he is still a little uncomfortable.
"Remember to get some separate food for the puppy. It has lost a lot of weight recently."
Liang Chongyue quickly finished dinner tonight. When he looked at the time again, he found that it was almost dawn and it would soon be time for the morning court.
She didn't need to sleep, and when she went to the palace to listen to her scumbag father's criticism, she could close her eyes and catch up on her sleep.
Liang Chongyue stood on the second-floor terrace, admiring the heavy snow outside. The capital was so cold, and the border must be even colder at this time.
Tightening his cloak, Liang Chongyue looked longingly at the big bed he hadn't slept in for a long time. After traveling in the wind and snow for a month, Liang Chongyue could now fall asleep even if he lay on the floor.
But the fire jade is still in her body. When she falls asleep, she won’t know what time it will be when she wakes up next time.
There are lanterns hanging in every corner of the princess's mansion, which looks beautiful on a snowy night.
The lights in the Yangxin Palace were on. Liang Zhan looked at the man wolfing down his food across from him with an impatient expression. The meal that had seemed exquisite just now became messy after the man took a few bites with his chopsticks.
"I only sent you to secretly protect Chongyue. How long have you been there? Are all the rules you learned over the years gone?"
Liang Luan had just put a piece of meat into his mouth when he heard his brother's words. He was so unhappy that he almost couldn't control the urge to roll his eyes.
"It's snowing heavily at the border now, and Chongyue has to rush back with a corpse on his back. Most of the way here is through dense forests and high mountains. I can't move fast with the people following behind. We didn't even dare to light a fire along the way, and the food is colder than the snow. I'm so hungry and thin. Brother, don't you feel sorry for me at all?"
After saying this, Liang Luan stuffed another big piece of meat into his mouth. He felt that the hardships he had endured on this journey were more than what he had experienced in his entire life.
He didn't know how long His Majesty would test Chongyue. He thought Chongyue was much better than those disappointing nephews.
If Chongyue was a prince, His Majesty would have abdicated and become the emperor emeritus long ago.
"You insisted on going, did I force you to go?"
Liang Zhan glanced sideways at the burning incense with displeasure. The morning court session would begin in an hour. Chongyue was probably asleep by now. What a heartless little thing, just like her mother.
Liang Luan saw that he was not in the right, and since he had been talking non-stop, he really had no time to say anything more, so he just lowered his head and started eating.
The dishes in the imperial kitchen are really good. If the emperor’s brother wasn’t so fierce, he would definitely poach a chef.
After Liang Luan had eaten his fill, he put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth, and rinsed it with tea. He saw that his brother was staring at Xiang, and he was afraid that he was waiting for Chongyue to admit his mistake.
"Royal brother, there's no need to wait any longer. Chongyue has returned to the Princess's residence. She seemed sleepy all the way here. I haven't seen her take a proper rest. I'm afraid she's already fallen asleep. Otherwise, she won't have the energy to be punished tomorrow."
