  Mr. Fang walked up respectfully and looked at the lady in front of him, who was becoming more and more elegant due to her confidence and joy. He said in a low voice, "Madam, would you like to start embroidering some wedding clothes?" Seeing Zhang Gui's initial stunned expression, followed by a blush that spread to her ears, Mr. Fang chuckled and said, "Chang Gong instructed me before he left. Baidu search [56 book library] The arrival of spring is near.

  Along with the good news of Langling Wang's return came the bad news of frequent defeats in this war.

  This time, the Northern Zhou joined forces with the three khans of the Turks, Mu Gong, Di Tou and Bu Li, and had 100,000 cavalrymen. On the other hand, Yuwen Hu, who recognized his own shortcomings, appointed an excellent general Yang Zhong as the commander-in-chief of the Northern Zhou in this battle.

  Yang Zhong used two months to break through the Northern Qi's Tongguan, and successively captured more than 20 cities of Qi. If it were not for a rare snowstorm in 563 that lasted for decades, which turned thousands of miles from south to north into an icy river, the state of Qi would have lost half of its territory.

  In this war, Gao Yan, who disliked the phrase "Under the sky, there are three kingdoms, and Lanling is unmatched", used false information to lure the King of Lanling to Beihuanzhou, where he was left to guard an empty city before discovering that the enemy's forces were too strong. Although Kulüe Guang and Duan Shao led a narrow defense against the enemy at the national gate, they also suffered heavy losses. Not to mention the large number of treasures taken away from the more than 20 cities captured by the Zhou people, but even the 50,000 cavalry troops trained by the King of Lanling were exhausted in this battle by Gao Yan.

  It can be said that after this battle, the military power and national strength of Northern Qi began to decline sharply, while the Turks and Northern Zhou formed a temporarily unbreakable alliance. The good situation created by Prince Lanling's recent campaign no longer existed.

  The triumphant return of the great army, the whole city has no joy.

  Zhang Qi sat in the carriage, looking up at the figure getting closer and closer. Just as the figure rushed out of the team and came over, Zhang Qi happily ran over and opened his arms to throw himself into his embrace.

  He hugged Zhang Qi and ordered as he sat in his carriage, "First return to the mansion."

  "Yes."

  The horse carriage soon entered the Langling Wangfu.

  Holding Zhang Qi, Lang Ling Wang jumped off the horse carriage and said in a low voice: "A Qi, accompany me to take a bath."

  Zhang Qihong blushed and nodded in agreement.

  After a while, the refreshed and spirited King of Lanling walked into the courtyard with Zhang Yi's hand in his. Seeing him come out, Old Fang hastily stepped forward, his eyes red with joy, saying: "Chang Gong, you're back."

  "Yes, I'm back." Lang Ling Wang Chao said with a smile. Fang Lao wiped away his tears and sighed: "Year after year of war, who knows when we'll have a peaceful day?"

  The King of Lanling fell silent for a moment, then said in a low voice: "In a few days, I will submit a memorial to ask for leave for half a year." He turned to Zhang Qi and smiled: "I'm tired, and I also have a big wedding coming up."

  Zhang Qian's eyes sparkled as she looked at him with a mixture of shyness and joy for a moment, then asked: "This battle?"

  The King of Lanling smiled wryly and said, "This battle, Your Majesty has teased me a bit." Seeing the uneasy expression on his face, he explained again, "But this is just right, I can take the opportunity to rest for a while. Anyway, he won't move my private army or remove my military post." With his current prestige, even if Gao Zhan wanted to muddle through, he wouldn't dare make fun of this matter.

  It turns out that Gao Zhan just felt that he rose too fast, had too much prestige in the state of Qi, and harbored a heart of jealousy. But this time's lesson is big enough, I think he will gradually understand.

  Hearing this, Fang Lao's heart settled a bit. The King of Lanling turned his head to look at him and asked: "Fang Lao, how is the repair of the mansion in Lanling going?"

  "Reported to the Duke, everything is ready."

  "It's all right." Langling Wang said with a smile: "I'm going to welcome Aqi from my fief, I couldn't let her lose face."

  "I understand."

  Just as they were chatting and laughing, a familiar, deliberately gentle voice came from the garden gate, "Chang Gong..." The voice was trembling with suppressed excitement.

  Everyone turned around at the same time. Appearing at the garden gate was Zheng Yu, but after not seeing her for several months, Lang Ling Wang suddenly discovered that she had become even thinner. The clothes on her body were loose and empty, and the beauty in her expression had faded away. Although she had applied a thick layer of powder, it could not conceal the fatigue and frailty in her expression.

  Zheng You walked over, seeing Lang Ling Wang's gaze on her lady's hair bun. Zheng You lowered her eyes and bowed to Lang Ling Wang, saying softly: "Chang Gong, I've always wanted to wait for your return, unfortunately, I didn't get to."

  Unfortunately, she didn't wait, meaning Zhang Qi hurriedly sent her away, right?

  The King of Lanling glanced at her and said in a low voice, "Have you signed the divorce papers?" During wartime, no one dared to use carrier pigeons for family matters, so Zhang Gui only found out now that she had been busy with joy after returning.

  "Yes." A simple word, Zheng Yu replied with a hoarse voice, holding back tears.

  The King of Lanling sighed and said, "Are you okay now?"

  "Not good." Zheng Yu replied straightforwardly, she smiled slightly, "I'm old and not as pretty as before. Yang Jing and Luo Yuanzhao got married early, so until now, no one has been willing to marry me." The Zheng family is still not declining, there are many who are willing to marry her, but for some unspeakable reason, she has never accepted those suitors.

  Hearing this, Langling Wang asked: "What do I need to do?"

  Zheng Yu's eyes lit up at her words, and she curtsied to him with a smile. "Brother," she called out sweetly, looking up at him with an innocent face. Although there wasn't much laughter in her eyes, Zheng Yu spoke softly, "Chang Gong, you once said that after the divorce, you would acknowledge me as your sister. Now I've come to ask you to fulfill your promise." The clan leader had said that the Zheng family couldn't survive without the protection of the Prince of Lanling. To be sure, they had specifically requested that the Prince cultivate ten young men from their family, but eight of them were still just low-ranking officials, and the two strongest ones had only recently been promoted to company commanders. In this great war, four people had died, including one of the two company commanders.

  Moreover, when Gao Jie took away the 50,000 cavalry this time, he also took them away. It was a huge loss for them to no longer be under the command of Langling Wang, who had always been known for his fairness and loyalty. It is likely that they will stop at this point in their lives, and the Zheng family will not produce another great general again.

  At the same time, Zheng Yu's stepmother also said that even if they couldn't get married, being siblings would be fine. As for Zheng Yu herself, she felt that this move was unavoidable, so she rushed over hastily.

  When Zheng Yu spoke, Lang Ling Wang smiled slightly. He was about to respond when Cheng Shi suddenly called out, "Prince." He walked over to Lang Ling Wang's side and whispered something in his ear. Those standing nearby could vaguely hear the words "colluding with He Shuang... deceiving him into the imperial palace... almost causing a great disaster..."

  Listening, King Langling's face changed greatly. He suddenly turned his head and stared at Zheng Yu, staring for a while before closing his eyes and waving his hand: "Get out."

  "But Chang Gong..." Zheng Yu hastily called out in a soft voice.

  Before she could finish, Langling Wang had already smiled wryly and said slowly, "Ayu, leave some face for me and myself, don't make a fuss anymore." In the blink of an eye, he added, "If it were someone else, they would have died under my sword by now!" Looking at Zheng Yu's face, which seemed to have aged greatly, he felt a pang of reluctance in his heart, but more so, disappointment.

  In response to Zheng Yu's pale face, the King of Lanling suddenly turned around and took a step forward before stopping. He looked back at Zheng Yu and slowly said: "Past events are in the past. You're now free, why not find a simple husband and live a down-to-earth life? All this scheming is exhausting, isn't it?" After speaking, he strode away!

  Watching Langling Wang leave, Zheng You's face turned pale. She shot a venomous glance at Cheng Shi and stormed off.
