The Myth of Daqin: The Soul of Yi Xiaochuan

Meng Yi rode his steed with a dashing presence in front, while Lü Su rode in a carriage behind him. To their left and right, Ying Bu, Xiao He, Han Xin, and other brothers accompanied them. The entire group slowly rolled forward towards Jiuyuan.

Along the way, they crossed the vast grassland, climbed over steep mountains, and crossed the turbulent Yellow River.

Time flies, and before I knew it, a whole month has passed.

Finally, on this day, they saw the majestic Jiuyuan City from afar. The city walls soared into the clouds, like a giant dragon entwined on the horizon, exuding a majestic and solemn aura.

As they approached the city gate, they saw a well-organized group already waiting there. Leading the group was none other than Meng Yi's second brother, Meng Yuan. Clad in armor and carrying a Qin sword, he rode majestically, his eyes revealing a resolute and courageous spirit. Seeing Meng Yi return, Meng Yuan smiled with relief.

Everyone dismounted in unison, their movements uniform, as if they had been well-trained.

Meng Yi walked forward steadily with a smile on his face. When he reached Meng Yuan, he bowed slightly, clasped his hands together in a bow, and said loudly, "Greetings, second brother."

Meng Yuan's face lit up with delight upon seeing this. He quickly stepped forward, stretched out his hands and firmly grasped Meng Yi's arms. Then, he patted Meng Yi's broad shoulders vigorously and said with a smile, "Brother Yi, it's been a long time since we last met! Look at you! You've become even taller and stronger in these few years!"

His words were full of satisfaction and appreciation for his younger brother's growth.

At this moment, Lu Su, carefully supported by her maid Xuemei, also slowly walked over. Although she was pregnant, she still couldn't hide her elegant and refined temperament. Lu Su was about to greet Meng Yuan, but was quickly stopped by Meng Yuan.

Meng Yuan said hurriedly, "Sister-in-law, you're pregnant now, so please don't be so polite! We're family, there's no need for such formalities. Come on, let's hurry back home. Maybe my brother and sister-in-law are already waiting anxiously!"

After saying that, Meng Yuan waved his hand, signaling the people behind him to go into the city together.

After hearing what his brother said, Meng Yi nodded repeatedly in agreement, then turned around and carefully helped Lu Su get into the carriage.

Afterwards, a group of people followed Meng Yuan in a mighty procession, filing into the prosperous and bustling Jiuyuan City.

The streets in the city are wide, flat, clean and tidy. There are shops on both sides of the road, and there are many pedestrians and cars, creating a prosperous scene.

Meng Yi and Lu Su sat in the carriage, looking through the window at the familiar yet unfamiliar street scene in front of them, and couldn't help but feel an indescribable emotion in their hearts.

Before long, they arrived at the gates of the Meng residence. The guards, seeing their young general return from afar, were overjoyed and rushed forward to greet him. For a moment, laughter and joy filled the entire residence.

Meng Yi ordered his servants to move the luggage into the mansion, and then took Lu Su into the hall.

At this moment, Meng Tian and Yu Shu had already been waiting in the spacious and bright hall for a long time. Meng Tian was wearing a long gown as black as ink, his sword-like eyebrows were as bright as stars, his eyes were even more piercing, and his figure was tall and straight, like an indestructible mountain.

When he saw his brother and sister-in-law returning safely, an expression of joy that was difficult to conceal instantly appeared on his originally resolute and calm face.

Looking at Yu Shu again, she was dressed in a light, fresh, light blue dress that flowed naturally like flowing water, perfectly framing her graceful figure. Her face was incredibly beautiful, like a fairy descending to earth, captivating and captivating. Even more striking was the fact that, in her arms, lay a mere six-month-old baby.

"Brother Yi, sister-in-law, you are finally back!" Meng Tian couldn't contain his inner excitement. He strode forward and tightly grasped Meng Yi's broad and powerful hands.

"Hehe, yes, brother, I'm sorry for causing you and sister-in-law to worry and care about us this time." Meng Yi responded softly with a smile on his face.

Yu Shu also walked over with a gentle and amiable smile on her face, and said softly to Lu Su: "My sister-in-law, you have been traveling all the way and you are really tired."

Lu Su smiled slightly and shook her head gently, indicating that she was not tired. Then she replied, "Sister-in-law, you are too kind. This is just my duty."

As she spoke, Lu Su's eyes inadvertently fell on the delicate child in Yu Shu's arms, and she couldn't help but exclaimed: "Oh my! Xuan'er has grown so big!"

Then, Lu Su turned to look at Meng Yi beside her and said happily: "My dear husband, look at this Xuan'er. He is so cute and well-behaved! And his appearance is simply a perfect combination of all the advantages of his elder brother and sister-in-law!"

After a round of warm greetings, Yu Shu's face was full of concern, and she asked softly: "Sister-in-law, are you in good health recently? Don't sit still all the time on weekdays, you should go out and walk around more often!" Her words were full of concern.

Lu Su raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile, and nodded gently in response: "Thank you sister-in-law for your concern, I am fine." As she spoke, she subconsciously reached out and gently stroked her slightly bulging belly, and a hint of maternal light flashed in her eyes.

Just at this moment, Meng Yuan and his wife, holding hands, carefully led their little daughter and walked slowly into the house step by step.

Seeing this, Meng Yi and Lu Su hurriedly stood up and shouted in unison, "Second brother, second sister-in-law!" Their voices were full of affection.

Meng Yuan's wife, Bai, smiled slightly, gently pulled the little girl beside her, and introduced her to Meng Yi and Lu Su in a soft voice: "Brother Yi, sister-in-law, this is my little girl Meng Xue." After that, she looked at her child with loving eyes.

I saw the little Meng Xue, with a pair of big, watery eyes on her delicate face, like two bright gems. She was wearing a light pink dress and had two cute little braids on her head. She looked like an elf that had walked out of a painting.

At this moment, little Mengxue was imitating the adults, holding her fists in a serious manner, and said in a baby voice: "Greetings to uncle... mother, greetings to uncle... uncle and aunt... aunt." Although her words were a little unclear, her seriousness really made people laugh.

For a moment, bursts of cheerful laughter filled the room, as if a spring breeze had blown through everyone's heart. Everyone was amused by this clever and quirky little Meng Xue, their faces filled with joyful smiles.

Meng Yi quickly walked to the side, bent down, and gently held little Meng Xue in his arms. Then, with a smile on his face, he asked, "Xiao Xue, tell your uncle, how old are you this year?"

Little Mengxue blinked her bright big eyes, still making babbling sounds, trying hard to express herself clearly: "Uncle..., I'm one and a half years old." After she finished speaking, she stretched out her chubby little hands and made the shape of the number "one", looking very adorable.

As night fell, the whole family gathered together, sat around the dining table, and enjoyed this sumptuous dinner together.

The table was filled with all kinds of delicious food, with tempting aromas that made people salivate.

Meng Yuan's wife, Bai, smiled and gently picked up some fresh green vegetables and put them into Lu Su's bowl, saying softly, "Sister-in-law, eating more vegetables in moderation is good for your health." Her tone was full of love and concern.

Lu Su smiled gratefully, nodded again, and responded, "Thank you for your concern, second sister-in-law." Her words were full of sincerity.

The family sat around the table, enjoying the delicious meal while chatting and laughing. It was a lively scene. Laughter and joy echoed one after another, and the whole room was filled with a warm and harmonious atmosphere, making people feel warm and comfortable.
