Three days later, everyone arrived in Yanjing. The God of War, King Yan, had returned, and the people of Yan were excited.

The streets were deserted, and people came to the outskirts of Yanjing City, carrying baskets filled with dried fruits and wine, to warmly welcome the triumphant soldiers.

The civil and military officials of Yan State also came out to welcome him. The God of War King Yan had returned, and this time His Majesty personally went a hundred miles away to welcome him. Everyone had to take it seriously.

Yan Longyi sat high on his horse with a dignified look on his face, waving to the people.

The King of Yan was dignified and handsome, and once again made great contributions to the State of Yan, which aroused cheers from everyone.

Mixed among the people were carriages, one after another. The curtains of the carriages were gently lifted, revealing many pretty faces inside.

These were women from the powerful families of the State of Yan. They came with their fathers just to witness the elegance of the King of Yan.

The King of Yan is the most prominent prince of the State of Yan. He is handsome and elegant, but he has never married. He is the dream husband of the aristocratic women of the State of Yan.

However, this time was different from the past. King Yan was no longer alone. A woman appeared beside him, walking side by side with him.

Si Yan and Yan Longyi sat on two tall horses respectively, walking forward side by side.

Everyone was wondering, who could be the woman who could ride a horse with the King of Yan?

"Ah! Could this girl be..." Someone suddenly exclaimed in the crowd.

"Who is it?" Someone asked casually without reacting.

Everyone's expression tensed, and they looked at the person who exclaimed with curiosity.

"This girl is a beauty of national beauty, she must be the number one female general of Daxuan, Miss Si Yan."

Suddenly, deafening cheers broke out in the crowd, and someone bravely shouted.

"Miss Si Yan!"

This shout reached Si Yan's ears directly.

Si Yan sat on the horse, smiled at the person who was speaking, and raised his hand slightly to signal.

The man's eyes suddenly widened, his face flushed, and he quickly lowered his head in embarrassment.

"Oh my God, it's really Miss Si Yan..." someone couldn't help but exclaimed.

The next moment, the people in the crowd suddenly shouted loudly: "Miss Si Yan! Miss Si Yan!"

Si Yan couldn't help but be a little surprised. She didn't expect the people of Yan State to be so enthusiastic towards her. She couldn't help but raise her hands and wave to the people on both sides of the road.

When the people saw Si Yan responding to them frankly, they became even more enthusiastic.

"Miss Si Yan, Miss Si Yan..."

Si Yan's name was heard everywhere, and even some people who didn't know Si Yan knew from then on that the woman their prince liked was the beautiful General Daxuan.

The news about Si Yan spread throughout Yanjing overnight.

In the crowd, a woman in purple gritted her teeth, staring at the man on horseback. She still imagined that Si Yan was a soldier who fought and killed, and his appearance would not be better than hers.

When I saw you today, all my dreams were shattered.

"Miss..." The maid beside her glanced at the purple-robed woman worriedly, "Shall we go?"

Rong Wan'er's face turned pale, and a terrifying expression appeared on her face: "Let's go and see Princess Yongning."

Princess Yongning is her best sister and will definitely help her find a way to deal with Si Yan.

All the women from aristocratic families had a consensus that the Princess of Yan could be any woman from the State of Yan, but she must not be a woman from Daxuan.

No matter how powerful Si Yan was in Daxuan, she had no control over the situation once she reached the territory of Yan State.

As the special envoy of Daxuan, Si Yan should live in the envoy's inn.

Yan Longyi took into consideration that the posthouse was simple and not as safe as Prince Yan's Mansion, so he arranged people directly to Prince Yan's Mansion.

A Yan has just arrived in Yan State, so no accidents can happen.

Si Yan presented the letter from Emperor Daxuan, stating that he came as a special envoy for the sake of peace and friendship between the two countries.

At the same time, we hope to further strengthen the ties and cooperation between the two countries.

When the king and his ministers of Yan heard this, they were all very happy.

Si Yan presented the state gifts brought from Daxuan, and also gave the Queen Mother Yan and the Emperor Yan thousand-year-old ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum picked from Mount Wujiu.

Everything went smoothly, but there were some minor disturbances.

The fact that Si Yan moved into Prince Yan's mansion greatly dissatisfied the women from the aristocratic families of Yan State.

Si Yan is not even the Princess of Yan, but she actually lives in the Prince of Yan's Mansion. She really has no rules.

Several women from powerful families discussed the matter together, and Princess Yongning took the lead in reporting it to the Queen Mother.

Several people found an opportunity to go into the palace to talk to the Queen Mother.

During the casual chat, Princess Yongning spoke up, "Empress Dowager, I heard that the special envoy from Daxuan, Lord Si Yan, has moved into Prince Yan's mansion?"

The hall fell silent, and everyone couldn't help but look at the Queen Mother sitting high on the throne.

The Queen Mother drank from the teacup, her expression calm: "Isn't this a good thing? Prince Yan and Ah Yan fell in love in a foreign country, and they were rarely together. Now is a good time for them to spend more time together."

A Yan?

Everyone was almost shocked. The Queen Mother actually called the woman Ah Yan, what an intimate name.

"But Queen Mother, this is against etiquette." Rong Wan'er felt a knot in her chest. "Ms. Si and Prince Yan are neither engaged nor married. If we do this, people might gossip."

"I'd like to see who dares to gossip about my future daughter-in-law."

The Queen Mother's expression turned cold, she placed the teacup heavily on the table, and swept a sharp gaze over the few people.

Several people looked at each other in confusion and fell silent. Even Princess Yongning did not dare to speak again.

The empress dowager's old eyes flashed with brilliance. As soon as Princess Yongning opened her mouth, she knew what these girls were thinking.

There is nothing wrong with them liking Prince Yan, but unfortunately Prince Yan doesn't like them, and there is nothing they can do about it.

Now that Prince Yan finally has a woman he likes, he will protect her no matter what she says.

After a while, the Queen Mother softened her tone and said, "From now on, you should all look more broadly and take a look at the other outstanding men in Yanjing City."

"Yes, Queen Mother." Several people's faces flushed and they walked away dejectedly.

The Queen Mother drank her tea slowly, looking at the portrait of Si Yan in front of her. "I used to think the painter had beautified this girl, but after meeting her, I realized that the painter didn't even paint half of her beauty."

"The Empress Dowager really likes Miss Si." Nanny Ji asked someone to change the tea for the Empress Dowager and stood beside her respectfully.

"You don't like it?" The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows.

"Miss Si is smart and clever, and I like her, but there is one thing I don't understand."

Nanny Ji is an elder who serves the Empress Dowager, so she is much bolder in speaking than others.

The Queen Mother glanced at her gently and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Nanny Ji said with a smile, "Isn't the Queen Mother anxious to have a grandson? Why is she not anxious about Prince Yan's marriage?"

When the Queen Mother heard this, her eyes became deep.

"What's the point of being anxious? Haven't you figured it out yet? My future daughter-in-law is someone who's going to do big things, not be trapped in a walled courtyard giving birth. Let the young people handle their own affairs."

If it were any other woman, Queen Dowager Yan would have discussed these topics: marriage, having children...

But Si Yan is the only one who can't do it, at least not now, the time has not come.

Queen Mother Yan had seen it clearly, and her prince had no intention of trapping this girl.

If that kid Long Yi had the intention of trapping this girl, I'm afraid he wouldn't even have the chance to be with her.

She had heard a long time ago that the new emperor of Daxuan also liked this girl. It was not easy for Long Yi to win her heart.

Since ancient times, heroes have loved beauties, let alone a stunningly beautiful woman, there is nothing anyone can do about it.
