Chapter 342 The Empress Arrives in Shengjing and the Couple Meets
The next day, the team set out again in heavy snow.
They don’t have much time left, as the Chinese New Year is less than two months away.
The empress didn't want to celebrate the New Year on the road, she had to celebrate the New Year in Shengjing.
When the time comes to offer sacrifices to heaven and ancestors, they must also be held in Shengjing to report the results of the battle to the ancestors and let them see her achievements.
Although she is not the first female emperor, she wants to be the only one in history, the first emperor in history to unify the world!
As we approached Yaoguan, the amount of snow on the ground had obviously decreased.
But the cold air is moving faster than they are.
The weather got colder along the way, even though they were heading south.
They entered Kun Country and arrived at the county seat of Yangbei County, where there were still traces of the last war.
Then they headed south and entered Qiuxin County. Here, the empress saw the man-made gullies in the hilly areas.
The empress knew that it was dug out by Nie Bei in order to resist the artillery of the Yan army.
As she walked along, she felt like she was reading a thick history book, seeing with her own eyes how the Yan army fought their way forward.
It was a pity that she didn't take a detour to Ziyang County, otherwise she would have had the opportunity to see what the battlefield where millions of troops were fighting looked like.
Every time they arrived at a place, Fairy Meiyan would tell her what had happened there.
Upon entering Fenglu County, the empress was stunned by the endless plain.
Living in the mountainous area of Northeast China, this was the first time she had seen such a large plain. It was flat and the ground connected to the horizon, without a single undulating hill.
Fenglu County is the granary of the entire Kun land.
Fairy Meiyan told her how the Yan army looted food and supplies here and how they transported them to the camp.
When we were in Fenglu County, it was already the coldest time of the year.
Shengjing of Kun Kingdom is still located in the very north of the world, and the weather is still very cold.
After walking for another half a month, the majestic and tall city wall finally appeared on the horizon.
The sky was dim and snowflakes were floating down.
The empress sat at the entrance of the dragon chariot, opened the curtain, looked at the huge city wall that could not be seen on both sides, and sighed,
"Shengjing is ten times better than Yanjing. This is the capital of a country, this is the city of a great country!"
"Your Majesty, this will be our home from now on. We will not move."
Jiang Ruoxue took the empress's hand and smiled.
The empress rubbed her little face lovingly.
The team in front gradually stopped and moved to the sides. The carriages of the empress and the officials moved forward and arrived two hundred meters north of the city gate.
stopped.
The empress tightened her cloak and said to the two women beside her,
"Come on, follow me to meet the man you've been thinking about day and night."
"I didn't miss him."
Jiang Ruoxue's pretty face turned slightly red, and she followed obediently, and Fairy Mei Yan also followed.
After getting off the carriage, they saw the tall and handsome man in the wind and snow. He was wearing a thick white cloak and was looking at them with a smile against the cold wind.
The man was also accompanied by several women, as well as some civil and military officials.
The empress walked forward with all the officials.
"Greetings to Your Majesty, long live my emperor!"
Everyone behind Shen Changgong knelt down, including all the soldiers and the common people of Kun who came to greet and catch a glimpse of the empress.
"Everyone is safe!"
The empress's domineering voice reached everyone's ears.
Then, all the officials behind her clasped their hands and bowed in salute.
"Meet Prince Lanling!"
"Everyone, please stand up."
Shen Changgong led his men forward and was about to hug his wife when a figure ran over from behind him and threw himself into the empress's arms.
"Your Majesty, Wan'er misses you so much."
Gongsun Wan'er hugged the empress and acted like a spoiled child.
The empress smiled and patted her on the back and said,
"Have you been doing your job properly and not being disobedient during this time?"
"I was very obedient and had made many contributions, but he still beat me. This bastard, let's beat him to death together?"
"hehe."
Yan Fuyao covered her mouth and chuckled, then let her go and walked in front of Shen Changgong.
The two were very close, holding hands and looking at each other.
A few months ago, when Shen Changgong went to war, the two of them did the same thing, looking at each other and then parting.
Now, they finally meet again, and everything is still the same.
Shen Changgong took his wife into his arms, wrapped her in his cloak, hugged her tightly, and said,
"I miss you."
"I miss you as well."
The two of them didn't say anything, didn't do anything, just hugged each other.
One action, one word, is worth a thousand words.
Yan Fuyao did not call herself "Zhen", but "I". This was not said as an emperor, but as a wife.
After a moment, the two let go.
Shen Changgong took her and walked over and introduced her.
"Your Majesty, this is Tang Xinyi, the former queen and now the Right Prime Minister of Dayan."
"Greetings to Your Majesty."
Tang Xinyi knelt down nervously.
"Don't be so polite, what a beautiful lady."
Yan Fuyao smiled slightly, there was a new member in her harem.
"This is the Left Prime Minister, Lord Yuan Chuyuan. He has made great contributions."
"This old minister greets Your Majesty!"
"Old Prime Minister, please get up quickly. I have heard of you since I was a child."
"This is Nie Bei, and that's Yu Huatian. You already know each other, so I won't introduce them."
"General, I will pay my respects to Your Majesty!"
"Please stand up, my dear. You have all worked hard."
I won’t introduce the rest of the people one by one.
Shen Changgong said,
"Let's go in first. It's too cold. We'll introduce everyone to each other at the morning court tomorrow."
"it is good."
Shen Changgong and the Empress got into the carriage hand in hand. Standing on the carriage deck, he pointed at the city and said,
"His Majesty."
"Ah."
"Look."
"What are you looking at?"
"Look... the world I conquered for you!"
Shen Changgong suddenly felt heroic, his eyes full of confidence and arrogance.
Yan Fuyao took Shen Changgong's left hand, and they both raised their hands high and shouted,
"Long live Dayan!"
"Long live Great Yan! Long live His Majesty!"
All the ministers, officials and soldiers shouted in unison!
In the cold winter, everyone has a fire in their heart, burning with blood boiling.
Shen Changgong said to Wang Anqing and other generals,
"Everyone, this king has already arranged residences for you all. Que Ling has brought a group of people to guide you to your new homes. If your name is called, just follow the guide.
See you tomorrow morning!"
They got into the carriage, and Gongsun Wan'er and Tang Xinyi followed.
Including Fairy Mei Yan and Jiang Ruoxue, there were a lot of people sitting in the dragon chariot.
To be precise, it was Shen Changgong and his five wives.
He and the empress sat at the innermost seat, flanked by Fairy Meiyan and Jiang Ruoxue, and further out were Tang Xinyi and Gongsun Wan'er.
The empress patted her side and said to Tang Xinyi,
"My queen, come and sit beside me."
