Chapter 79: The War King Rages into the Palace

In Weicheng, after arranging all the follow-up matters, Feng Zhaoyun ordered the army to set off back to the capital.

This time, the Duke's Mansion and the War King's army returned to the capital together with great momentum, so the march was slow.

Halfway through, we rested in the woods.

Feng Zhaoyun and Duke Feng were sitting in a makeshift pavilion. Jiuyi stepped forward and whispered to Feng Zhaoyun.

Feng Zhaoyun frowned slightly. There was no news from Nangong Shang yet. Jiuyi looked hesitant at this moment.

"Your Highness, there is one more thing..." Jiuyi had received intelligence about this matter when he was in Weicheng, but he dared not report it.

Feng Zhaoyun took the fragrant tea brewed by the servant. He had taken this tea from Bai Mohan himself. He blew on the tea soup without looking up. "What's the matter?"

"Young Master Xiao...will marry into the Yue Kingdom shortly after you leave the city." After Jiuyi finished speaking, only a sound was heard.

The teacup that Feng Zhaoyun picked up fell to the ground, and the freshly brewed fragrant tea spilled everywhere, and the tea splashed on the corner of Duke Feng's clothes.

Duke Feng looked up and saw Feng Zhaoyun's face pale with shock. "What did you say?"

Jiuyi looked embarrassed. Duke Feng glanced at Feng Zhaoyun with disdain. "Your Highness has only just learned about this. I already knew about it in Weicheng. Well, that's good. I heard that the young master of the Xiao family has been discredited. Being able to marry into the Yue Kingdom royal family is a blessing in disguise. We will pay our respects to you whenever we meet you in the future."

Feng Zhaoyun stood up suddenly, "Prepare the horses!"

The first time Xiao Siying saw Feng Zhaoyun's panicked expression, she was delighted. Something must be happening again! She hurried forward excitedly, "Your Highness, I'll go with you!"

Jiuyi hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Xiao Siying, shaking his head.

Bai Yun had been led over by his subordinates. Feng Zhaoyun jumped on her horse and rode away. All the soldiers stood up and stared at her back in amazement.

Duke Feng calmly drank his tea and sneered, "Royal women are so heartless..."

Feng Zhaoyun rushed back to the capital with Jiuyi's fast horse. At this moment, she felt extremely guilty and anxious. She had promised Xiao Qingyue that she would help him.

He calculated in his mind that he had been away from Beijing for a month. If Qingyue had married into the Yue Kingdom just after he left Beijing, he would probably have made it too late.

After a day of riding, it was already dark, and Feng Zhaoyun stopped. Jiuyi hurried forward to persuade him, "Your Highness, even if you rush over now, it's too late. Let's find a place to rest first."

Feng Zhaoyun nodded. It was already dark and it was not suitable to travel quickly, so Feng Zhaoyun and Jiuyi went to a nearby official inn to rest.

When the official post learned that it was Prince Zhan who had arrived, everyone hurriedly lit the lights and got busy, creating a chaotic scene.

The official had prepared the meal and everything, and was kneeling on the ground, while Feng Zhaoyun sat at the table without saying a word.

The officials at the official post station were so frightened that they knelt on the ground and could not get up. It was not until Jiuyi waved his hand to signal them to retreat that everyone felt relieved.

Jiuyi looked at his master, sighed, picked up the ceramic teapot, poured a cup of tea for Feng Zhaoyun, and gently pushed it in front of her, "Your Highness, if you don't want to eat, have a cup of tea."

Feng Zhaoyun finally came to his senses and took the tea that Jiuyi had poured. He stared at the pale yellow tea and said, "I am now the War King, second only to the emperor and above everyone else, but I still can't protect anyone..."

Jiuyi felt inexplicably sad after hearing this. She had followed His Highness since she was a child. His Highness lost his father at a young age. Although he was loved by His Majesty, he grew up alone and faced many conspiracies and intrigues. She knew that His Highness had a hard time.

"Your Highness, perhaps this is Young Master Xiao's fate." Jiuyi could only comfort him in this way.

Feng Zhaoyun smiled, "Fate?... I don't believe it. Everything depends on human effort. If I were here, I wouldn't have this fate."

Before he left, he had already sent people to secretly protect Xiao Qingyue, but he didn't expect that these secret guards disappeared like air. This could only be done by his mother.

In just two days, Feng Zhaoyun and Jiuyi arrived in the capital. At this time, officials received the news from the official post station and were already waiting outside the city to welcome them.

When Feng Zhaoyun arrived outside the city, Prime Minister Jiang and his men knelt together, and everyone shouted in unison, "Welcome His Royal Highness the Prince of War!"

Feng Zhaoyun said coldly, "Get out of the way."

Everyone was stunned. This is...

Prime Minister Jiang and others knew Feng Zhaoyun's temper very well, and also knew that His Majesty doted on Prince Zhan, so they did not dare to stop him and quickly stood up and stepped aside.

Feng Zhaoyun rode into the imperial city and headed straight for the palace...

Behind the palace gate, the Royal Guards saw that it was Prince Zhan and stepped forward to salute, "Your Highness, but you want to enter the palace? Do you have the Emperor's order today?"

Feng Zhaoyun had a cold expression throughout. Jiuyi looked at his master's face, hesitated for a moment, and then stepped forward to persuade him, "Your Highness, why don't we go back first? Young Master Xiao has left, and it's too late. If you go in now, you will surely incur the wrath of His Majesty."

Feng Zhaoyun glanced at Jiuyi and turned his head, but did not dismount. "Get out of the way!"

Seeing that the War King had come with ill intentions, and not having been informed in advance that he would be entering the palace today, the Imperial Guard stepped forward, bowed their heads, and clasped their fists, "Your Highness... Please wait here. I will go in and report to His Majesty."

Feng Zhaoyun remained silent, and the commander of the Imperial Guards sent someone in to report.

In the imperial study, Zhou Fuhai sighed when he heard that the imperial guards were coming. What was going on?

Then he entered the imperial study and said, "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Prince Zhan is waiting outside the palace and wants to come in to see you."

The Empress was currently reviewing documents. Upon hearing Feng Zhaoyun was at the palace gate, she said calmly, "You! Go there yourself! Tell her to go back and rest, and come back when she's thought it through."

Zhou Fuhai bowed his head and saluted, "Yes, I understand."

Zhou Fuhai brought his men to the palace gate in person. At this time, Feng Zhaoyun was riding a white horse and still standing in the middle.

Zhou Fuhai looked up and saw Feng Zhaoyun's face was extremely bad. He was really afraid of both mother and daughter, and neither of them was easy to serve...

Zhou Fuhai put on a fawning smile and saluted Feng Zhaoyun, "Your Highness, His Majesty said that you have just returned from suppressing bandits in the south. You have made great contributions. Go back and rest first. If you have anything to do, come back tomorrow after you have thought it through."

Jiuyi hurried forward after hearing this, "Your Highness...please go first, don't provoke the wrath of the Holy Lord."

After hearing this, Feng Zhaoyun knew that her mother would not see her again today. She looked deeply into the palace, ignored Zhou Fuhai, and turned around on her horse to leave the palace gate.

Seeing that His Royal Highness Prince Zhan had left, Zhou Fuhai picked up his sleeve, wiped the sweat from his face, sighed, and said, "Let's go, let's go back." He left the palace gate with the eunuch and went back to report.
