Chapter 111 Please Take Back the Tiger Tally
As the army entered the city, the people on the side knelt down and shouted in a loud voice, "Congratulations to King Anding for his great victory and triumphant return."
"Everyone, please stand up quickly. No need to be polite!"
Seeing many people kneeling, Shen Yu's eyes fixed and he shouted for the people to stand up.
After hearing the prince's order, the people all stood up. Unlike before when they watched from afar, they now looked closely at the soldiers entering the city.
The generals who entered the city after taking a special rest outside the city gate were all in high spirits, dignified, with serious expressions and no smile on their faces.
The first important thing after returning to the court is naturally to go to the palace to meet the emperor.
Shen Yu did not linger on the main street for long. He leaned into the horse's belly and said softly, "Gee!"
The horse sensed its owner's anxiety and quickened its pace.
Shen Lingge and Shen Yu came to the gate of the imperial palace.
After a night of falling snow, the glazed red tiles were covered in silver, which was very beautiful.
Anyone entering the palace had to dismount and walk into the palace. Except for the imperial guards, no one else was allowed to enter with weapons, and Shen Yu was no exception.
All the soldiers and he took off their weapons, followed Shen Yu closely, and entered the imperial city together.
Palace servants were sweeping snow on both sides of the road, and it looked much more lively than usual.
As the sound of mighty and orderly footsteps came, the palace maids who were sweeping the snow looked up, and those passing by all bowed to Shen Yufu.
These palace maids sweeping the snow were all new arrivals this year. They had never seen Prince Anding before and were arranged to sweep the snow at the palace gate because of their low status. Unexpectedly, they were the first people in the palace to see the true appearance of Prince Anding.
After they left, they whispered in private, "Prince Anding is so handsome!" The palace maid who spoke first blushed, and it was not known whether she was cold in the winter or embarrassed by being immersed in Prince Anding's face.
"I heard that the late emperor and his wife were both very handsome, so their children will surely be good-looking. Your Majesty is handsome, and our Majesty and the prince are born of the same mother, so they will certainly be good-looking."
"If I marry such a person, I would be happy even if I am just a concubine." The person who said this knew that her status was low and she did not even dare to ask for the position of a concubine. Looking at this beautiful face, she would have no regrets about being a concubine.
The palace maids sweeping the snow on the palace road were in groups of two. The two young palace maids who were talking stopped their work, leaned on their brooms, and stood close together, talking without deliberately lowering their voices.
The two were so engrossed in their conversation that they didn't notice the head nanny approaching from behind.
"How dare you! The prince is a noble, how can you, a mere palace maid, discuss his affairs? Drag him away and give him twenty slaps!"
"Mammy, we were wrong!"
The voice gradually faded away, and the head nanny looked around, trying to see if there was anyone else secretly talking about the master behind her back.
Shen Yu and his group were unaware of the little episode behind them.
After passing through the corridor and entering a red door, you will reach the Xuanzheng Hall where the emperor held political meetings.
Everyone came to the front of the Xuan Zheng Hall. Three thousand elite soldiers were waiting in the small square outside the hall, while Shen Yu and Shen Lingge went into the hall to meet the emperor.
Silver charcoal was burning in the Xuanzheng Hall. It was not only warm, but no ash was produced even if more was burned. It was the best charcoal fire. Perhaps only Emperor Showa and the Imperial Concubine could use it in the entire imperial palace.
Inside the hall, a handful of people, wearing golden dragon robes, sat on the high steps. Brothers in the past, now rulers and subjects.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you and wish you the best!"
"My son, please see your father!"
The uncle and nephew knelt on the ground and bowed deeply in unison.
"No need to be so polite! Stand up!" Emperor Showa raised his hand while sitting on the dragon throne.
The Yue Kingdom defeated Mobei and signed a ceasefire agreement. It could obtain exquisite war horses from Mobei every year. Emperor Showa was very pleased and naturally looked good.
The uncle and nephew stood up with humble expressions.
Emperor Zhaohe looked at his brother, "Wu Jue, you have become more mature, your skin has become darker, but you are stronger!"
Wu Jue is Shen Yu's courtesy name. Only his father, the emperor, and his mother, the empress, called him that when he was a child. No one had called him that for many years, except Shen Lingge. This was the first time he knew the courtesy name of his uncle.
The younger brother in Emperor Showa's memory was thin, small, and fair-skinned. He went to the battlefield at a young age. Except for returning when his father had just passed away, he never returned to the imperial city since then.
Now that I think about it, it’s been ten years since we last met.
Emperor Zhaohe frowned and feigned anger: "If it weren't for Mobei asking for peace, would you have planned not to come back?"
"Brother I don't dare."
When they were young, their elder brother was the crown prince, and they were very friendly and respectful to each other. On weekdays, they were like ordinary brothers, talking and laughing. Now everything is different. When facing the emperor, there is a distinction between the monarch and the subject in their words.
"When I was young, I was stationed at the border to protect the territory of the Yue Kingdom from being invaded by the Mobei Kingdom. Now that the war between the two countries has ended, I will return to report."
As he spoke, he knelt down and said, "I have fulfilled my mission and lived up to your trust. I have successfully brought the friendly agreement between our two countries back to the Imperial City."
"Good! Good! Good!" The emperor was delighted and said three "good"s in a row. "Stop kneeling now! Think carefully about what you want. I will reward you."
Emperor Zhaohe's gaze fell on Shen Lingge again, "Qinghe, I haven't seen you for a few years. You've grown a lot taller."
He looked at Shen Lingge's features. The fifteen-year-old boy had lost the immaturity of his childhood and looked just like the hazy figure in his memory.
Qinghe looks more and more like his mother, and if you look closely, he looks a bit like him too.
"Father, I have grown up now and can help you share your worries."
"Good boy, the imperial concubine has been talking about you for a long time. Go see her later."
"The eldest prince has returned. I'm sure the Imperial Concubine will be overjoyed. I'll go and report this to the Imperial Concubine right away."
The person who spoke was Eunuch Chen, the chief eunuch who had served Emperor Showa for many years.
After Eunuch Chen finished speaking, he saw Emperor Zhaohe nod and hurriedly retreated.
"Yes, I miss my father and the imperial concubine at the border."
Shen Lingge lost his mother at a young age, and was raised by the Imperial Concubine with all her heart and soul. In the entire palace, if you were to say who he has the best relationship with, even his father would be ranked behind the Imperial Concubine.
"Wu Jue, have you thought about what reward you want?" Emperor Showa brought the topic back to Shen Yu.
Upon hearing this, Shen Yu took out a small box from his pocket, raised it above his head with both hands, and knelt down. Without first saying what reward he wanted, he said, "Your Majesty, please take back the tiger talisman. I have guarded the border of Yue Kingdom for more than ten years, and now I want to take a break."
Worried that his brother might overthink things, he added, "If war breaks out again, as long as my brother needs me, I will go to the battlefield at the command of my brother to protect the peace of the Moon Kingdom."
Since ancient times, those who have achieved greater success than their masters have always ended up in a miserable state, not to mention that he is the younger brother of the current emperor. His majesty has been wary of his existence since he was a child. That is why he has to hand over the tiger talisman and stay away from the court, maybe he can live longer.
What's more, before parting with Xu Zhao, Xu Zhao whispered the word "tiger talisman" in his ear, so it seems that they were thinking the same thing.
