The concubine is soft and charming, and the prince is willing to seduce her

Chapter 227 Good News
Half a month later, the sky covered by dark clouds in Jingzhou City welcomed the long-awaited sunshine.

"Report - eight hundred miles urgent!"

Inside the Qianqing Palace, the battle report sent urgently from Xijing City was presented on Wei Qingye's desk. The soldier who delivered the message knelt below and spoke excitedly:
"General Shen led his army to fight several battles with the Xirong tribe, and finally pretended to be defeated and fled to the snowy mountains. The Xirong tribe was in high spirits, and they took advantage of the victory to pursue and fall into a trap.

General Shen and his men ignited the explosives that had been wrapped in oil paper, causing an avalanche that buried two-thirds of the Xirong alien army in the snowy mountains. The remaining Xirong alien army was beaten back step by step, and finally fled to the east of the Tianshui River in a panic..."

Wei Qingye flipped through the battle report, his eyes flashing with joy, "General Shen personally led the team to detonate the snow mountain. Was he injured?"

The soldier said, "Your Majesty, General Shen and his men found a cave in the Tianshan Mountains to hide. They were not injured and escaped almost unscathed."

Wei Qingye finally breathed a sigh of relief after learning that everyone was fine.

If Shen Hongfeng was injured, I'm afraid Zhizhi would be worried again.

"Send Zhang Fenghe and Zhang Qiufeng to the emperor for an audience."

Zhang Fenghe is a veteran of two dynasties in the Southern Qin Empire. He is old and is respected as the Old Grand Tutor. Zhang Qiufeng is the Minister of War. It is said that the two of them came to discuss the cession of territory and payment of compensation after the defeat of Yuewei Kingdom, Yueshi Kingdom and Xirong.

The two ministers were waiting outside after hearing the summons. Chai Hui came out from inside and greeted them according to the etiquette, "Please come in, two ministers."

"Thank you, Mr. Chai."

After some politeness, Zhang Fenghe and Zhang Qiufeng followed Chai Hui inside.

The meeting was held in the Qianqing Palace, while Chai Hui went to the Weiyang Palace in person.

Shen Zhiyu was copying the Heart Sutra. After hearing Fu Zhu's message, she put down the brush in her hand and said, "Please ask Eunuch Xiao Chai to come in."

Chai Hui smiled and said, "Congratulations, Imperial Concubine. Congratulations, Imperial Concubine."

Shen Zhiyu stood up and took two steps forward, wondering, "Eunuch Xiao Chai, I wonder where this joy comes from?"

"The victory report from Xijing City has reached the Qianqing Palace. Your Majesty is busy summoning ministers to discuss the affairs of the defeated country, so he asked me to come first to report the good news." Chai Hui grinned, and his smile became more festive.

Shen Zhiyu turned to Lianyue and said, "Go and fetch me the box I use to reward people."

The small box was filled with the gold melon seeds given to her by the emperor. Shen Zhiyu happily grabbed a handful and put them in Chai Hui's hand, "Let little eunuch Chai share in the good fortune."

"Thank you very much for your reward, Your Majesty."

Chai Hui smiled happily, and after saying a few more words here, he got up and returned to the Qianqing Palace.

Shen Zhiyu did not even copy the Heart Sutra and ordered someone to go to the Marquis' Mansion to report the good news so that Shen's father would not worry anymore.

Qingdai was also happy and specifically asked for this job. Shen Zhiyu did not stop her but ordered people to escort her all the way.

Qingdai wore a veiled hat and rode her horse straight to the marquis's mansion.

The guards at the gate of the Marquis' Mansion all knew Qing Dai and hurriedly saluted her, "Greetings, Aunt Qing Dai."

Qingdai responded, took off the veil on her head and threw it to the guard behind her, then she walked into the mansion with her skirt lifted.

The old housekeeper was a little skeptical when he heard the report, until Qingdai appeared in front of him, then he asked curiously: "Girl, you are not serving the queen, why are you back?"

Qing Dai pulled the old housekeeper's sleeve affectionately, "Can you guess?"

The old housekeeper smiled until his face was full of wrinkles. "How could I guess that?"

"Good news came from West Border City. The young general won the battle!"

The old housekeeper was full of surprise. He pulled her to the main courtyard, shouting breathlessly: "Master, Master, we won, we won~"

Shen Hui, who was pruning the branches of a potted plant, was so frightened that his hands trembled, and the branch he wanted to keep was cut off by a pair of scissors. "What's the matter? Is Zhizhi going to give birth again?"

The old butler quickly waved his hands, "No, no, it was the young general who won the battle. We won!"

Shen Hui put the scissors in his hand aside and said with a smile: "Reward, all the servants in the mansion will be rewarded, and two more months' monthly salary will be added."

Qing Dai asked coquettishly, "Master, is there any place for me?"

Shen Hui nodded, "You came to report the news, I'll give you a credit and give you a big red envelope."

Qing Dai bowed and said, "Thank you, Master~~"

Shen Hui did not stay at home to cultivate his character, but started to visit the homes of his old friends. He talked about how great his son was every other sentence, and his face was full of pride, which was unmatched.

When Shen Zhiyu learned that everything was fine in the Marquis' Mansion, the pressure in her heart was finally relieved.

Wei Qingye came back specially at noon to have lunch with her and the others. Suisui and Zhaozhao went to Qingning Palace to make trouble for the Queen Mother in the morning, and when they saw their father, the Queen, they started clamoring for a hug again.

Wei Qingye held Sui Sui in his left hand and Zhao Zhao in his right hand. He hugged them and rocked them a few times, making the two little kids laugh even more happily.

Zhao Zhao hugged Wei Qingye's neck and kissed him hard on the face, "Father is so kind."

Sui Sui also imitated her sister and kissed him on the face, "I like father, father is awesome."

Seeing the two little ones clinging to Wei Qingye, Shen Zhiyu smiled and said, "Come down quickly and let your father have a good rest."

After Suisui and Zhaozhao were put down, they sat on their small wooden armchairs and ate the soup and rice in their bowls with spoons. They didn't cry or make a fuss and were very well-behaved.

Sometimes when Sui Sui looked up and saw food on the corner of his sister's mouth, he would pick up his handkerchief to wipe her mouth.

Zhao Zhao curved her big eyes and said in a milky voice: "Crab, crab, pot, pot~"

Shen Zhiyu found this scene very interesting. Just as she was about to turn around and talk to Wei Qingye, she discovered that there were already several pieces of selected fish in the bowls and plates in front of her.

"My face is so handsome that it can make Zhizhi feel full just by looking at it?" Wei Qingye joked.

Shen Zhiyu blushed and glared at him, "Changying really loves looking at himself in the mirror more and more now!"

"Am I not handsome?"

"My husband is very beautiful, please eat quickly before it gets cold."

Shen Zhiyu picked up a piece of lotus root and placed it on the plate in front of him. "Changying, how does this taste?"

Zhao Zhao imitated her mother's actions, picked up her small bowl, and pointed it towards Shen Zhiyu, "Liang dear~ Eat~~"

Wei Qingye hurriedly put the bowl back for her and explained gently, "This is for Zhao Zhao to eat. Mother eats what Daddy gave her."

Zhao Zhao seemed a little confused. He tilted his head to glance at the two of them and continued to eat happily.

Sui Sui ate his meal in an orderly manner. With the care of his mother, he subconsciously looked at his father, and then said with a smile: "Liangqin~ Send me some paper."

The cricket said with grievance in his heart: Woo woo, the way my father looked at me just now was so scary~~
Shen Zhiyu just felt that Suisui was sensible and well-behaved, which made her feel a little distressed.

"Sui Sui, you are still young, you don't need to restrict yourself like this."

Sui Sui nodded. He didn't dare tell his mother that his father would only show that gentle look when facing her.

Poor little Sui Sui discovered the truth~~
