Chapter fifty-eight

After sending the two, Yang Tian no longer left the mansion frequently. He mostly practiced martial arts at the Duke's Mansion. Occasionally he would go out to see Mr. Hao, and basically he would take Yang Ying with him. Sometimes he went to Qinghouer's original yard to see Yang Shi and Yang Miao and others, and left some money for the three injured to continue treatment. When he went to see Yang Shi and the others, Yang Tian went there alone.

In the blink of an eye, a month had passed. Yang Tian had not received a letter from Sun Qing. However, Emperor Wu of the Great Zhou returned to Chang'an. The beginning of this attack on Qi was extremely smooth. The Zhou army successively seized several cities. Cui Jingsong, the governor of Jinzhou of Qi, directly asked Emperor Wu of Zhou to surrender. With Cui Jingsong's response, the Zhou army also took Pingyang.

After taking Pingyang, Qi State finally reacted and Emperor Gao Wei of Qi personally led reinforcements to Pingyang. Emperor Wu of Zhou Yuwen Yong saw that the Qi army was in full swing. Despite the opposition of the generals, he withdrew the main force from Jinzhou, leaving only 10,000 people to defend. He led the army back to Chang'an to prepare for rest.

However, Emperor Wu of Zhou quickly realized that he had made a big mistake. After the Zhou army retreated, the Qi army began to siege Jinzhou, Pingyang and other cities that the Zhou army had newly captured. Emperor Wu of Zhou stayed in Chang'an for less than half a month and had to lead the army to attack himself. This time the two sides no longer gave in. On the periphery of Pingyang, the 80,000 Zhou troops fought with nearly 10,000 Qi troops. The Qi army was defeated and was beheaded and retreated to Jinyang. The Zhou army took advantage of the situation to advance to Jinyang.

When the news of the Zhou army's victory reached Chang'an, it was almost the end of the year. The people of Chang'an who received the news were all enthusiastic, and the market in Chang'an became prosperous.

However, in the battle of Pingyang, although the Zhou army won a great victory, thousands of troops were inevitably damaged. Many people in Chang'an, who were on the front line, began to secretly pray to God and Buddha to bless their relatives with safety.

As the commander of the three right armies, Yang Jian certainly did not need to worry about the safety of his relatives like ordinary people. However, as the end of the year approached, the male owner of the family was far away on the battlefield, and he couldn't help but miss him. He paid more attention to Yang Tian, ​​Yang Ying and his brothers.

On that day, Yang Tian had just finished practicing swords, A Xiang, the maid next to Dugu, hurried over: "Young Master, my wife, please hurry up and go to the hall."

Yang Tian put away the sword and threw it to Sun Er beside him, saying, "Sister Axiang, what's the matter?"

A Xiang laughed: "It's a good thing to go back to the prince. The prince's mansion sent someone to pass on the message. The eldest prince's mansion would go back to the prince's mansion to visit relatives in three days."

"Three days later, what will that mother asks me to go over and do now?"

A Xiang exclaimed: "Grand Prince, the Crown Prince loves you the most. Every time I go back to the house, I will reward the Crown Prince with a lot of things. Your red shadow is given to you by the Crown Prince. When you heard that the Crown Prince was coming, you would jump three feet happily. Why is it so peaceful this time?"

When Yang Tian woke up, he only knew that he had this sister. He had never met before, and of course he had no family affection. Seeing A Xiang's doubts, he had to say, "I used to be young, but now I'm grown up, of course I can't be like before."

A Xiang looked up and down Yang Tian: "Well, the eldest son has grown a lot taller. The princess must be happy when he sees it. I don't know what rare things he can reward. Let's go quickly. Maybe the prince will come this time, and the lady must have many things to explain."

Yang Tian shook his head: "Your Majesty is not here, and the prince is the governor, how can he move lightly?"

A Xiang said: "No matter what, it's already a big deal for the Crown Princess to come. Come with me."

Yang Tian had to follow A Xiang and came to the hall in the middle. Yang Ying, Yang Jun, Yang Xiu, and Yang Liang were also brought one after another. The guards and servants of the Duke's Mansion were all gathered together, and a large area of ​​people stood in the yard, with hundreds of people.

The guards and servants were whispering in the courtyard, with joy on their faces. It was obvious that they had received the news that the Crown Princess wanted to return to her parents' home. For them, it was obviously a good thing for the Crown Princess to return to her parents' home. The food in the past few days will be much better immediately. After receiving the Crown Princess, each person can get a red envelope.

Seeing that everyone was here, Dugu began to call the servants and the guards in one by one, and told them to do what they would do in the past few days that all courtyards must be cleaned thoroughly, and no dirt should be left behind. All kinds of red cloths and lanterns should be purchased and sold... At that time, the entire Duke's Mansion would be arranged in a festive mood, the Crown Princess would stay for a lunch, and all kinds of rare dishes should be prepared one by one.

Dugu's arrangements were made one by one, in an orderly manner. A Xiang and Alan acted as general managers and prepared money and supplies for each staff. Yang Tian was bored and calculated roughly next to him. In the blink of an eye, the expenses of the Duke's Mansion were no less than 1,000 guan.

After the dispatch was made, Dugu encouraged the entire Duke's Mansion and let everyone disperse. Only the two girls Yang Tian, ​​A Xiang and Alan were left in the hall.

Dugu turned around and instructed Yang Tian: "You are the boss. When the crown princess comes, you must set an example for your brothers and not lose etiquette."

"Mom, I understand, I will definitely behave properly then."

Dugu nodded: "Don't be too restrained. The Crown Princess is your sister. She loves you the most. You just need to make the Crown Princess happy."

The royal family has no affection, not to mention that Dugu is not the biological mother of the Crown Princess. In the past, the Crown Princess returned home and was greeted by the couple. This time, Yang Jian was not at home, and everything was pressed on Dugu. Dugu inevitably seemed cautious and tried to make people unable to find out.

Dugu turned to Yang Ying again: "Amo, the Crown Princess is back. No matter what you reward you, you are not allowed to pester the Crown Princess for things."

Yang Ying pouted, feeling unhappy, and reluctantly agreed: "Yes, mom."

When the Crown Princess returned, he was the happiest person in the family. When the Crown Princess got married, Yang Jun was still young, Yang Xiu, Yang Liang and others were not born yet. Although they were in the capital, they could not meet once a year, so naturally there was no reflection. Only Yang Ying remembered that every time the Crown Princess came home, the eldest brother and him could get a lot of benefits.

However, the Crown Princess still has a deeper relationship with her elder brother. If he didn't bother with her, the rewards he received were far inferior to those of her elder brother. When Yang Jian was there, he naturally wouldn't care about these things, but Dugu could not ignore them.

Dugu's family gave another instructions before they let their brothers leave. In the past three days, the entire Duke's Mansion was in full swing. The Duke's Mansion was cleaned and newly arranged.
