Demon King and Concubine

Chapter 144 The Concubine Virtuously Pleases (3)
She felt that the pair of officers and soldiers who ran across the street just now were different from the ones she had seen in the capital before, with different decorations and a different aura.

Jun Xiuran also looked thoughtfully at the direction in which the group of people disappeared, and suddenly his eyes moved slightly, and he stood up.

"how?"

He stretched out his hand to pull her up, turned around and walked out the door, saying, "If I'm not mistaken, those people just now should be the Conglong Army from Northern Xinjiang."

As soon as he heard the word "Northern Xinjiang", Duanmu Tian's eyes lit up. It has been a month since his father went to Northern Xinjiang, and there have been only occasional battle reports back to the capital. As soon as he changed his previous weakness, he fought back brazenly under the command of Lord Duanmu, and took back a city in just three days.

But there are battle reports, but no soldiers from Northern Xinjiang have ever appeared in the capital. They came here in a hurry today. Could it be that something happened?

She couldn't sit still any longer, and instead pulled Jun Xiuran to stride out the door.

But as soon as he got out of the box, he first received all kinds of eyes from all directions, all staring at the two people who at least looked like they didn't get along at all.

The restaurant was quiet for a moment, Duanmu Tian remained indifferent, pulled Jun Xiuran and walked out of the lobby to the street.

It wasn't until the two of them left far away that the atmosphere in the restaurant became lively again, and groups of three and four gathered together, discussing a lot.

"It's unbelievable. Prince Duanmu was an extraordinary hero when he was young, and the concubine is the number one beauty in our Dayan. How could their daughter grow up like this?"

"Haven't you seen it? It's the first time I saw Princess Tian's real face?"

"Indeed, I just heard about it before, how could such a noble person as the princess be easily seen by me and other ordinary people?"

"This Princess Tian is notorious because of this birthmark on her face. If you ask me, the most unbelievable thing is that His Highness the Third Prince would fall in love with Princess Tian."

"Isn't it? Earlier I heard that Princess Tian forcibly occupied the Third Highness, and the Emperor thought of the face of the Duanmu Palace before he decreed the marriage. I also heard that the Third Highness announced to the world a while ago, saying that he really likes it. Princess Tian thought that the rumors were wrong, but when I saw you today, with the expression of the Third Highness just now, how can there be any unwillingness?"

"It's a strange thing, the third highness is a fairy-like person, but he ignores the most beautiful beauties in the world, and chooses the ugliest one."

"It's also the most honorable."

Suddenly a voice from the side interjected faintly, causing all the discussions to stop suddenly, and then everyone looked different.

Isn't it the most honorable?Apart from the princesses of the royal family, who could be more noble than the princesses of Duanmu and Feng of the North City?The Feng family has no princess, and even the inheritance bloodline is about to be cut off, leaving only the Duanmu Palace.

Even the princesses of the royal prince's mansion are probably inferior to the princesses of the Duanmu family who worked hard with the founding emperor of Dayan and were named princes in terms of honor.

The people here were discussing a lot, Duanmu Tian quickly chased after the team that had just disappeared from the Long Sergeant after leaving the restaurant, and this chase actually went directly to the gate of Duanmu Palace.

When she entered the Duanmu Palace, the sergeants who had just galloped past the street were standing in the main hall of the palace, reporting respectfully to the old princess sitting above.

"Don't worry, the old concubine, the prince is fine, and he will return to Beijing triumphantly soon."

The one in front couldn't hear it, but she heard this sentence first when she entered the door, and she couldn't help but be surprised.

Will he return to Beijing triumphantly soon?So fast?

The sergeants noticed someone coming in, turned around and looked over, then saluted Duanmu Tian, ​​and said: "See Princess!"

After glancing at Jun Xiuran next to him, he saluted again and said, "See Your Highness the Third Highness!"

Duanmu Tian didn't pay attention to the order of their salutes, and only asked: "You said my father will return to Beijing triumphantly in a few days? Is the war in northern Xinjiang over?"

One of the black-faced sergeants reported: "The princess, the lord is an incomparable talent. Since his return, he has led us to defeat Lianyue's [-] troops in one fell swoop, and took back a city in three days. After that, we continued to attack and plunder After a long battle, the prince's prestige caused the morale of Lian Yue's army to plummet, and he retreated all the way, so he sent a peace letter six days ago. The prince told me to go back to Beijing to meet the emperor in person, and report the matter to the emperor for a decision. The prince will stay in the army In the middle, continue to stare at Lian Yue to prevent them from making any changes."

Should she say "Daddy mighty"?

In less than a month, Lian Yue's attack, which had caused countless generals in the court to deal with it, was repelled by his father's counterattack and reputation, and Lian Yue sent him a peace letter on his own initiative.

With a certain mind, she noticed something strange, looked at them and asked: "Since father asked you to return to Beijing to report this matter to the emperor for decision, why did you come to Duanmu Palace first instead?"

"Before leaving, the prince handed over a letter saying that it was to be delivered to the old concubine, the prince or the princess. On the way to the palace, he passed the Duanmu Palace, and he delivered the letter first. I will go to the palace immediately. "

After speaking, he turned around and bowed to the old concubine, then exited the main hall, left the Duanmu Palace and rushed towards the imperial palace.

After Duanmu Tian watched them leave, he turned to look at his grandmother, and said, "Grandma, does Dad have any special instructions in the letter?"

The old concubine handed the letter directly into her hands, and said: "There is nothing special to explain, just a normal report of safety, and said that I am only waiting for news from the capital. If there is no accident, I should be able to return to the capital soon."

Duanmu Tian managed to suppress the joy in his heart, but the corners of his eyes and brows were raised slightly, and the corners of his mouth also outlined a gentle arc.

Jun Xiuran looked at her from the side with gentle eyes.

The news of the complete victory in the northern Xinjiang war quickly spread throughout the government and the public, and then spread to the people, which immediately caused the entire capital to boil, and this boiling matter is rapidly spreading in all directions.

In the inner courtyard of the palace, someone stood under the palace corridor, his face full of shock: "What did you say? Lord Duanmu defeated Lian Yue, the war in northern Xinjiang is over, and he will return to Beijing triumphantly after the aftermath is settled?"

"Isn't it? This matter has been spread for a long time. Miss, you are serving the concubine De in the harem, so you only know about it now. I said, Lord Duanmu is too powerful, and he defeated Lian Yue so easily." invasion."

"How could this be? How could this be?" She murmured to herself in a daze, "How could Lian Yue's army be so useless? The end of the war means that Prince Duanmu is about to return to Beijing? Then, wouldn't I Can't argue with Duanmu Tian even more? No, no, I have to tell my aunt about this right away!"
