"Father, it's getting late, and the celebration of the commemorative ceremony is also a waste of time. Why not send my father back to the palace to rest?" After the celebration of the commemorative ceremony, it was time for the palace to light the lights.

"Yun Qi, do you think I am old?" Before King Yu could react, Emperor Liang immediately said: "I am old. Now that you have entered the palace, I will go see your mother. I haven't reunited for a long time."

King Yu was originally listening to Emperor Liang's words, but when he mentioned the Virtue, King Yu could no longer refuse. So he accompanied Emperor Liang from Chengyuan Palace to Qingzhi Palace. Along the way, the father and son were talking and laughing, but the scene was indescribable.

With Eunuch Cui informed in advance, Concubine Du had already changed into Concubine Xian's clothes and led the palace servants to wait outside the Qingzhi Palace. When he saw Emperor Liang, he immediately performed a palace ceremony and said, "I will meet Your Majesty."

"Plain, don't be too reserved tonight. It's our family to reunite." Emperor Liang held Du Xianfei with one hand and King Yu's hand, and walked into Qingzhi Palace very comfortably. Qingzhi Palace was as usual. It was not because of the rush of time, but Concubine Du Xian politely rejected the decoration of the Interior Office and kept the palace as it was. Emperor Liang did not feel the abnormality, while King Yu felt the warmth of the home. The three of them sat around the table. Concubine Du Xian poured tea before looking at her son carefully, with a face full of pride and gratitude, "Yun Qi, are you injured?"

"Report to my mother, my son is safe and sound."

"That's good, that's good!"

"I'll make some of your favorite pastry co-stars tomorrow to send you."

"As long as it is made by my mother, I love to eat any pastry!"

This scene of a loving mother and filial son also moved Emperor Liang. "Will Yun Qi leave after returning to Beijing for a while? I can stay by your side for a long time. You can make pastries for him every day!" Emperor Liang said this but did not relieve Concubine Du Xian's feelings at all, but instead made her feel a little unnatural. Her expression changed without escaping King Yu's eyes, but did not attract Emperor Liang's attention at all.

"Yun Qi, you are not young anymore and are the only one who is unmarried among all my princes. This is your mother's heart disease! I think it's a chance for you to return to Beijing this time, and getting married will make your mother feel at ease."

King Yu did not realize the seriousness of the situation, but refused as usual: "What the father said is, but my son has become accustomed to being single in the military for a long time, and has not yet thought about getting married."

Emperor Liang had long expected the remarks of King Yu, and was not surprised at all, "You are already the Prince of Five Pearls. If there is no princess on your side, how do people in the world think of my Daliang royal family? It is precisely because of your destruction of Hu, Tang has sent a request for marriage to marry the princess to you. I have read the picture. Princess Tang is as beautiful as a fairy and deserves you!"

"Father!" King Yu hurriedly lifted his seat, lifted his skirt and knelt down, "Please think twice! My son, a rough man from the army, may not match the princess!"

"Nonsense! You are the Five Pearl Prince I personally enthroned. How can you be a rough military man? How can you not match the princess? You must have been on the border for a long time, and the rough wind and sand have worn away the nobleness of the royal family in you!"

"Father, I just want to guard the border for my Daliang. As my father said, I have become accustomed to the wind and sand of the border. The tenderness in the palace is for fear that it is not suitable for me!"

"Yun Qi! You have just returned from triumphant battle and have experienced a fierce battle. I know that you have not completely calmed down. I don't blame you, and I don't rush to force you. However, this marriage involves the prospects of both countries! If you are not used to life in the capital for the time being, then stay for a while." Obviously, King Yu's words angered Emperor Liang a little.

"Your Majesty" Concubine Du Xian filled Emperor Liang again without waiting for King Yu to speak, and advised with a gentle voice: "Today is a festive day in Daliang, and Yun Qiding has not been able to recover from such a heavy honor and favor. Speaking of which, I am the same, so I should not blame you. I have been in the palace for many years and I am also hoping that Yun Qi can have a son and a half daughter, so that I am very happy." While speaking, I looked at King Yu with affectionate feelings.

Emperor Liang was obviously very helpful, and his tone became gentle, "Fu'er, you are the most considerate, so let Yun Qi stay with you for a few more days, and you can also enlighten him. Today, I am here with you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Concubine Du Xian looked at King Yu, who tactfully performed the palace ceremony. "Father, mother, son, have surrendered."

Three days after the celebration ceremony, the "Military Merit Book" completed by King Yu was presented to Emperor Liang. After a brief reading, the Liang Emperor was approved by the other emperor except for the promotion of King Yu's military merits, and at the same time ordered a letter to the world. In the "Military Merit Book", soldiers who died in battle were given double pensions and exempted from the family's taxes for five years; all surviving soldiers were promoted to two levels of the enemy's head;

King Jin of Henan was the second-rank general of the army;

Yang Zhongjin was the third rank of General Guide;

Shen Yongnian was the fourth rank of the rank of the chief general - General Zhongwu;

He Yunke, Lu Wenxuan, Feng Chu, Gu Hongxuan, Geng Yan, Jiang Xiaoyu, Xia Junmaojin was the fifth rank of General Dingyuan;

Miao Wei and Gu Junyuan were ranked as the fifth rank - General Ranger;

Xuan Shaoning, the army Gong Zhengyuan, Siheng, and Ling Feiyan had outstanding achievements. Xuan Shaoning of Jin was the sixth rank of chief ministers——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

Cao Tie, Xinggang, Qingcang, Meng Kebao, Xie Yi and Xie Yu were the seventh rank of Zhengguo.

If the unprecedented military merit book inspired the military and civilians of the Liang Dynasty, then the wedding of King Yu was the hottest topic of conversation among the people in the capital after dinner. Just the day after the military merit book was issued, the rumors about the wedding of King Yu spread throughout the capital with lightning speed. A hundred people said that Princess Tang was in a foreign color and looked different from the women of the Liang Dynasty. However, she was the most beautiful woman in the Tang Dynasty. Her figure was even more exquisite and beautiful. She was a partner who was harmonious with the Liang Dynasty General Wang Shi.

"Now this rumor is so rampant that it is obvious that I have never agreed to this marriage!" King Yu couldn't sit still. He stood in front of the window of Qingzhi Palace and complained loudly. Whether in the court or in the army, because of his identity, King Yu must always maintain the majesty of the prince and the aura of the general. Although he loves the army like his son and rarely involves the government affairs, he cannot vent his temper at will. If there is a place in this world that can make him irresponsible and completely release his inner emotions, then it is only Qingzhi Palace.

"Look at your temper, you are so old!" Concubine Du Xian gently placed plates of pastries and a pot of tea on the stone table from the food plate in her maid. "Don't you understand the truth that there are ears in the partition walls? You are so popular now, but the clouds and hell are often only one step away. Didn't your mother listen to the words at all?"

"Mother, how can I not understand the truth you said? But I really don't want to. I have never seen the Princess Tang before, so how can I talk about the emotional foundation?"

"How many royal marriages are based on emotions?" Du Xianfei sat on the stone pier, raised her hand, lifted her sleeves, and filled a cup of tea for King Yu. As the tea spreads out, the rich fragrance of osmanthus began to spread throughout the room. It was refreshing to hear them. "In accordance with the mother's opinion, you still agree with this marriage."

"Mother?"

Concubine Du looked at her son with a smile and looked surprised and said, reaching out and holding him and sitting beside her, "Yun Qi, when will your father have any room for improvement in the matter that has been decided by you? What will happen if you anger the Dragon's Reverse Scale? I don't need to say more. Mother asked you, have you ever met a woman who made you moved over the years?"

King Yu thought about it seriously for a while and finally shook his head. Could it be that he had been in the military for too long and could not contact the woman so that he became interested in the woman? King Yu shook his head and immediately denied himself. So is anyone particularly concerned about? As soon as this question came out, a human face slowly came together in his mind. Is that? The man looked so familiar, and the more he looked at it, the more he looked like...

"How, answer Mother's Mother!" Du Xianfei saw her son thinking for a while, then shook her head and nodded, as if he was a child. Du Xianfei couldn't help but smile, "It seems that there is no, otherwise it will definitely appear in your mind as soon as possible. Yun Qi, when you are really old, your mother naturally hopes that you can be happy. Since you have never seen him before, why don't you want to fall in love with Princess Tang after getting married? Think about everything better, this is how Mother's mom has come here for years."

"Mother!" King Yu held Du Xian's hand. She knew her hard work best to be a son. She had not been favored by Emperor Liang since she was born, so that her mother still had a low status. Seeing that other women had been promoted to the palace by virtue of their sons, she had never made any further progress for many years. How powerful is the people in the harem? Every lonely night she spent over the past thirty years, every pain and grievance she had eaten, she never said half of her son. "What the mother said is that the son minister has always lived too much and never considered the situation of the mother in the palace."

"Mother's mother doesn't need you to consider my situation. What Mother's mother needs is that you think about your own situation carefully. You become the Prince of Five Pearls through war and killing. This status is achieved by you and your soldiers under your command with flesh and blood. Mother's mother doesn't want you to ruin your future because of momentary intent. Not only is it irresponsible for yourself, it also lets down the expectations of those who died in battle and those who are determined to follow you! In Daliang, only those who ascend the throne are qualified to do things as they please, but you are not yet able to do it!"

"Mother, do you want..."

"How? In terms of rank, among the five adult princes, you and King Xiang are both Princes Five Pearls, Prince Ling is Prince Sanzhu, and King Zhuang is Prince Zhuang is Princes. Prince Zhuang is Princes. Prince Zhuang is Princes. Prince Zhuang is also a prince. In terms of military merit, who can compete with you. Only in the court are you at a disadvantage. Although the mother is just a female, she also knows that the prince is mediocre and cowardly, King Xiang is deeply scheming, and Prince Ling is ruthless. When will your father be on the throne? Any of them inherits the throne, it is rare for you and my mother to die well."

When Du Xianfei said these words, his tone was plain, as if the things he said were all the things of others, but the connotation revealed in the semantics was enough to shock King Yu. He never expected that his mother, who had been at ease for many years, had such ambitions in her heart, had such ambitions!

Seeing her son's surprise, Du Xianfei knew that sooner or later she would have such a chance. She picked up the jade chopsticks and picked up a piece of several pastries she made by herself and put them into the plate in front of King Yu. Because the shapes of the pastries were different, the flower-shaped and round pastries were placed at the bottom and the square pastries were placed at the top. Because of the uneven force, the top pastries fell down soon and fell to the ground from the stone table, falling into several petals. Because of the red appearance, the broken pastries looked particularly cruel in King Yu's eyes.

"That is rose honey cake. It uses rose petals that have not been opened. After mashing, it is extracted with nectar, and then mixed into Qingzhou glutinous rice juice. Finally, it is steamed on the steamer for two hours. Because the red extraction technique is extremely difficult and it is difficult to mix well with glutinous rice juice, it is also difficult to mix evenly. If you want to make this square, a complete pink pastry, you can get one out of ten. Unfortunately, this piece is still two in the plate. You have to be extremely careful when you pick it up again. When the pastry is broken, the mother can still do it again. Many things in the world are difficult to reverse once they happen." Concubine Du suddenly changed the topic and began to describe the production of pastry. In the eyes of others, she was puzzled. King Yu had already understood his mother's intention.

"Mother, I understand your good intentions." King Yu picked up all the pastries in the saucer and stuffed them into his mouth. After chewing them, he drank the tea soup in the cup in one gulp. "Mother, I'm leaving first, you can rest soon."

King Yu stepped out of Qingzhi Palace. Concubine Du Xian looked at the window, and her inner struggle and pain finally showed on her face: her lips kept trembling, tears began to roam in her eyes, and her hand holding the window edges put her nails into it with force. Since she was promoted to Concubine Xian, the Qingzhi Palace, which had not been visited for a long time, was full of cars and horses, and the crowds came to congratulate her were wave after wave, regardless of day or night, but she refused the gifts and did not say much. Everyone gave her the pastries she made with her own hands. In addition, she was settled in the morning and evening, and asked for peace and service as usual, which also made the harem that was full of discussion gradually quieted down.
