Chapter 318 Another person comes
As for the identity of Cao Yuan, Shen Chenli did not have much thought.
"He is my mother's grandfather. Although this general is indeed loyal to his country as a military commander and is worthy of admiration, he does not seem to be qualified as a father.
I heard that my mother's mother, my grandmother, was forced to enter the palace. In order to make his position more stable, he chose to send my grandmother to the palace in an extremely undignified way. Fortunately, the emperor did not care and was considerate to my grandmother. That's how my mother came into being."
After this explanation, Yu Tingwan finally understood the matter between him and General Cao.
However, seeing his indifferent look and tone when he talked about these things, as well as his fight with General Cao when he was young, it seems that he doesn't care much about this matter.
This was good. She didn't have to worry about whether they needed to meet or give special treatment to General Cao.
The two talked for a while, and seeing that it was almost dawn outside, Shen Chenli took Yu Tingwan to the Beidi Palace and took away most of the gold, silver and jewelry inside.
Only the things in the national treasury were left, waiting to be used to further develop the Beidi area.
No, it can’t be called Beidi now. When everything is on track, Shen Chenli will plan this place out as a prefecture and county.
Taking advantage of the slight dawn, Yu Tingwan returned to the military camp with the valuables in the space.
Not long after resting, there was a noise outside. Yu Tingwan simply got up and went outside to check, and found that Song Shixu, the Duke of Fuguo and others had already arrived in the military camp!
Yu Tingwan hurried forward to greet him.
"Old Duke, Old Madam, Lord Ruyang Marquis... Princess?"
Yu Tingwan, who was about to say hello, looked at the person coming out of the carriage in surprise.
She didn't expect that even the eldest princess chose to follow the Duke of Fuguo to the border, which was enough to show how bad the actual situation in the capital had become!
When the people who got off the car heard the voice, they looked forward. When they saw Yu Tingwan among the soldiers, they were all surprised, especially the female relatives.
Before Yu Tingwan got close, a figure suddenly jumped out from the eldest princess' carriage. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Zheng Anhe.
She got off the carriage and ran straight to Yu Tingwan, then threw herself into Yu Tingwan's arms and screamed.
"Wanwan, Wanwan! I miss you so much, Wanwan! I miss you so much that I can't sleep, Wanwan!"
Yu Tingwan was left speechless by the ghostly howling in her ears.
"Uh, An He..."
"Humph!"
Suddenly a cold snort came from the other side. Yu Tingwan looked up and saw the eldest princess looking at Zheng Anhe hanging on her with a look of dismay on her face.
"I don't know who slept the whole way in the carriage, except for eating, drinking, defecating and urinating, and didn't wake up until we reached the border!"
"Mother!! Please don't say it!!!"
Zheng Anhe was exposed in public by the eldest princess. He immediately jumped off Yu Tingwan and screamed to stop his mother from continuing!
Yu Tingwan was stunned for a moment, then suddenly laughed out loud. It seemed that they had a safe journey.
"Late night!"
There was another voice, and another figure got off the carriage, looking a little weak.
Yu Tingwan looked over and saw that the person coming down this time was actually Lin Shutong, but judging from her appearance, she didn't look good!
Seeing this, Yu Tingwan hurried forward and looked at her worriedly.
"Shutong, what's wrong with you?"
"This was her first time away from the capital, and Lord Lin refused to come with us. Shutong was worried about her parents and fell ill on the way."
It was still the eldest princess who answered her question. Hearing this, Yu Tingwan looked at her worriedly, but Lin Shutong shook her head at her, with a hint of happiness in her eyes, and said:
"It's my own problem. I feel much better now. Thanks to the Princess and the old lady for helping me along the way. Otherwise, I would not have made it to the border!"
Yu Tingwan walked forward and took her pulse. Seeing that she was just worried too much, he felt relieved. Then he just looked at her and said:
"Live here peacefully. I'll arrange for someone to secretly look after your uncle and aunt."
After hearing Yu Tingwan's arrangement, Lin Shutong looked at her gratefully. He also knew that now was not the time for him to talk too much, so he waved at her and asked her to get busy first.
Yu Tingwan didn't say anything else. She just patted her hand soothingly and then looked at the Duke of Fuguo and the others.
"Old Duke, Princess, and Lord Ruyang Marquis, you are all exhausted from the journey. Let's take a rest in the military camp before going to the border town. There are accommodations prepared for everyone there."
Upon hearing this, Marquis Ruyang did not say a word, but Duke Fuguo was just like Old Master Jiang before, waving his hand and not even entering the military camp!
"We just came here to take a look and see if you are okay. The military camp is a restricted area, so we'd better not go in!"
Yu Tingwan glanced at Song Shixu and saw that he was also shaking his head, so she had to give up.
Then he looked at the Duke of Fuguo and said, "I'm sorry, Duke. The prince is still in Beidi and can't come back for a while. When he comes back, let him come to you."
This made the old Duke even less concerned.
"We all know it!" The Duke of Fuguo looked at Yu Tingwan with interest, shook his head and sighed:
"Now the whole world is saying that the Princess of Chen led 200,000 soldiers and horses to fight against the 500,000 troops of Dongqi, captured hundreds of thousands of Dongqi prisoners alive, and won a great victory. She is truly a heroine!
Prince Chen led his army all the way north, straight to the heartland of Beidi, and took Beidi into his possession. His name as the God of War was so majestic and impressive that it was admired by everyone! "
Hearing what the Duke of Fuguo said, Yu Tingwan's mouth twitched slightly, and he turned around to look around. As a result, even Lin Shutong, who had already entered the carriage, lifted the curtain and looked over.
Zheng Anhe went even worse. He just held her arms tightly and looked at her with a teasing look.
"Wanwan is really amazing, it's a pity that I didn't get to see your heroic performance!"
Hearing her teasing voice again, Yu Tingwan helplessly tapped her nose and looked at the Duke of Fuguo:
"Please forgive me, Duke. At that time, there was a general commanding the entire scene. The rumors spread by the world are so bizarre and unbelievable!"
"Hahahahaha!" The Duke of Fuguo laughed loudly upon hearing this, and looked at her helplessly and said:
"I know you keep a low profile. I know my son well. Those magical weapons are definitely not his work. Princess, you are too modest!"
A few people joked for a while, but they were all very tactful and didn't ask what the "magic weapon" was. Even though the rumor outside was very detailed and probably true, everyone present was smart and wouldn't ask anything that shouldn't be asked!
Finally, Yu Tingwan thought about the fact that he had not explained to the Jiang family about his return, so he suggested going to the border town together. The happiest person among them was Zheng Anhe, who happily invited Yu Ting to take a carriage in the evening.
Unexpectedly, Yu Tingwan rejected him.
"I won't take the carriage. I'll just ride on horseback."
"Then I want to ride a horse too!"
Seeing her daughter's willful behavior, the princess felt helpless and could only nod to Yu Tingwan and said:
"I'm sorry to trouble you, Princess!"
"No, An He never makes anyone worry, he is very sensible."
After Yu Tingwan explained the matters in the military camp, the group was preparing to leave, but unexpectedly, Ji Yunhui and Fang Heci also walked out of the camp together.
"We haven't been back for a long time. Let's go back and take a look."
These words were specifically said to Yu Tingwan. Yu Tingwan looked at the two of them without saying anything, nor did he stop them.
See what they are going to do when they get back!
