Chapter 105 Arrival in the Celestial Empire 2

At night, everyone lit a bonfire.

Chunyu, Xialu, Qiushuang, and Dongxue took advantage of the fact that their master was making arrangements and not sticking to the princess to pester An Yuanyuan to ask about Bai Zimo's background.

This man was the one who kidnapped the princess, but the master didn't punish him. Instead, the three of them came back together. Several people couldn't help but become curious about Bai Zimo's identity and his relationship with the master.

When I heard that he was the master's eldest brother, I was surprised but then I understood. This made sense. Otherwise, according to the master's character, he would not let him go so easily. There was only one possibility, that he was an acquaintance, and he had a good relationship with him and would not harm the princess.

This was the first time they heard that their master also had a senior brother after following him for so long.

"Princess, why did the master's eldest brother kidnap you?" Chunyu asked.

"Yeah, why don't we just stay and wait for the master? Why do we have to go through so much trouble? And we were scared." Xia Lu took over Chunyu's words. They haven't recovered from the punishment they received that day. But they can't show it in front of the princess. And they can't say it. If they say it, it will be the same as reporting the master. Unless the four of them don't want to get better.

An Yuanyuan: “…………”.

Why else? That guy just wanted to take her away as he said and see Leng Aotian get anxious.

I was kidnapped by him on a whim. There was no other special reason.

But An Yuanyuan couldn't bring herself to say it, it was too embarrassing, so she could only bite the bullet and play dumb and not explain clearly.

She also did not reveal that Bai Zimo was the miracle doctor of Yaoxue Valley. She felt that Leng Aotian and Bai Zimo did not want outsiders to know his identity.

So she only said that he was Leng Aotian's senior brother, avoiding the fact that he knew medical skills.

In order to prevent them from continuing to ask questions, An Yuanyuan quickly found another topic to avoid the question.

The next day, the day to enter the city, everyone put on armor and sat on horseback ready to set off.

An Yuanyuan and the other generals' wives could no longer go with them, because the emperor had already arrived at the palace gate to greet them, and they would also have to go to pay homage. These were the honors of the soldiers, and they were not allowed to be present.

When the three ladies arrived here first, they had already returned to their own residences privately.

Chun, Xia, Qiu, Dong, Bai Zimo and An Yuanyuan entered the city first, mingled quietly among the people, and watched the spectacular scene together.

The sun had just risen above the horizon, and the golden light was shining on the avenue of the imperial court, making it sparkle. A mighty procession was slowly moving along the avenue, which was extremely spectacular. Leading the way was a great general wearing golden armor, riding a tall horse, looking majestic, with a handsome face and a firm and deep gaze.

Behind the general was Ampereson and other officers, also riding war horses, looking very heroic. Behind them were densely packed soldiers, marching in unison, with clanging steps. Their armor reflected a dazzling light in the sun, like a flowing torrent of metal. On both sides of the team, colorful flags fluttered and rustled, like unyielding warriors in the wind.

People along the way flocked to the roadside, staring at the team intently, with admiration and joy written all over their faces. Children rode on their parents' shoulders, pointing at the majestic general, giggling, with reverence on their faces. The elderly, with tears in their eyes, stretched out their hands tremblingly, as if caressing the past years that had passed.

An Yuanyuan looked at the heroic man leading the crowd, feeling filled with pride.

I remembered that I was standing in the crowd to welcome him back two years ago. We had never met before and I just thought he was handsome. I didn't have any other thoughts. Now that the scene was re-enacted, my feelings were completely different.

This outstanding man is hers.

Leng Aotian, who was riding on a warhorse, seemed to have noticed something. He turned his head to look at the crowd, and his eyes were accurately locked on the little woman.

The two looked into each other's eyes, and at that moment, it seemed as if the noise of the crowd around them disappeared. Only the two of them were left.

Heaven and earth, a glance lasts a lifetime.

Bai Zimo rolled his eyes, speechless. These two were always together, and now they were doing something terrible.

The common people were all paying attention to the general's every move. They saw him staring at the crowd with a gentle look on his face. It was the first time they saw this general, who was known as the living king of hell, had such a tender side. They couldn't help but wonder who could have such great charm.

Everyone looked in the direction the general was looking at, and soon someone recognized her and shouted, "That's Princess Leng, the general's young concubine who married into the family a year ago."

The crowd immediately became even more excited.

It turns out that this great general loves his young wife so much.

Everyone knows that An Yuanyuan is a military wife. Because of this, more people envy the deep feelings between the two.

The affectionate gaze between the two across the crowd also became a topic of conversation among the common people after dinner. They all praised them as a couple made in heaven.

Because the crowd was probably very enthusiastic and out of concern for An Yuanyuan's safety, she was taken away from the crowd early.

An Yuanyuan kept her head down the whole time, her cheeks burning. I didn't expect that a glance could cause such a sensation.

I feel embarrassed to continue watching.

The four of them, Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter, saw each other off and left the crowd.

"Princess, let's go back to Prince Leng's Mansion first."

After leaving the crowd, Chun Yu asked.

"No, I want to go back to Prince An's Mansion." Anyway, Leng Aotian wouldn't finish so quickly, so she wanted to go back to Prince An's Mansion first.

"Princess, Prince An and the Emperor are at the palace gate welcoming the masters and their family. They are not inside the mansion." Xia Lu said.

"I know." An Yuanyuan seemed to have thought of something and continued, "By the way, is the scientific expedition over?"

"Princess, it's been over for a few days."

An Yuanyuan nodded. She went back to Prince An's Mansion first to meet Qingshan, Shishan, Second Prince, and Aunt Sun. But she thought that they should all be following their father to the palace gate to welcome the team by now.

No matter what, she would go back and take a look first. Anyway, she didn't want to go back to Prince Leng's mansion alone, as those women in the backyard were too annoying.

The wives of the soldiers also wanted to attend the palace banquet, but they had to wait until the evening.

An Yuanyuan turned around and said to Bai Zimo, "Brother Bai, do we call you Brother in the Celestial Empire as well?"

"Just put me back in the same position as them, as your guard."

"Ah? How can this be done?"

"It's fine if I say so. Saying I'm a guard is better than saying I'm Senior Brother Leng Aotian."

After listening to this, An Yuanyuan pondered for a while and said, "Okay, I'll inconvenience you, Senior Brother."

No one knew that Leng Aotian had a senior brother. Now that a senior brother has appeared out of nowhere, people who are interested will definitely investigate. If Bai Zimo's identity is found out, some people will come to him for medical treatment, and even people from the court may come. We will be caught in a dilemma then. If we cure him, everyone will be happy, but if we don't, there will be all kinds of bad voices. In short, it will be a thankless task.

An Yuanyuan got a headache when she thought about all these troubles.

It is better to keep a low profile in life.

Anyway, only Qiu Shuang and Long Si knew Bai Zimo's identity. They were all family members, so it didn't matter.

"Senior Brother, what should I call you when I'm around?" I can't just call him by his name, he's so famous.

As if thinking of something, he approached Bai Zimo with a smile and said, "Brother, can I call you..."

"No," Bai Zimo refused without any hesitation.

"I'm not done yet."
