Chapter 136 Returning Heart Like an Arrow

"Great victory! Our Southern Expedition army wiped out the rebels, and captured the bandit leader Chen Jikuo alive!"

"Great victory..."

From south to north, the entire Ming Dynasty was detonated by successive good news.

"Did you see that, the one just now is the messenger of the victory, even the county elders dare not stop him, otherwise he deserves to be killed!"

An old man was drinking counter wine, squinting his eyes to show his insight.

The shopkeeper said with a smile on his face: "Is the Southern Expedition coming to an end? Then our life will get better and better."

The old man took a sip, then licked the corner of his mouth with his tongue, and said reluctantly: "There are still those foreigners from the north, these days! As long as they don't come in like the former Song Dynasty, it will be Taiping Prosperity!"

The good news reached Peking all the way, and Zhu Di, who was preparing to return to Beijing, immediately ordered to speed up the process.

After arriving in the capital, Zhu Di didn't bother to check the prince's actions during the period of supervising the country, and directly ordered people to prepare for the prisoner offering ceremony.

In the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Di's face was still a little flushed, and he said: "I have already agreed with Zhang Fu's idea. Since the intercourse is repeated, let it sink!"

Although Jiaozhi pays tribute every year, that little tribute is nothing compared to the annual military expenditure, and everyone will calculate this account.

Yang Rong came out and said: "Your Majesty, Mahamu of Wacha is now strong and strong, and Alutai is already a little bit powerless. Once Mahamu dominates Mengyuan, there will be another big enemy in Ming Dynasty. Therefore, Jiaozhi can be calmed down as soon as possible. most."

Hu Guang also agreed: "Your Majesty, Mahamu is ambitious, but Arutai is ambitious and talented, and Wacha is my Ming's heartache!"

Zhu Di glanced at it and saw that everyone supported the end of the Cochin War as soon as possible, so he said: "Then it's settled like this, I will immediately transfer someone to replace Zhang Fu, and prepare to train for the Northern Expedition!"

Hu Yan praised: "Your Majesty is wise."

There was a sudden looseness on Zhu Di's stern face, "I won't say whether I'm wise or not, but that Fang Xing made the first contribution twice, and he has already escorted Chen Jizuo to his destination. How can I reward him? There is not a single case yet, let's discuss it."

...

Fang Xing led his team and showed that Chen Jikuo all the way, and finally saw the city wall of Jinling.

Thinking of Zhu Zhanji's letter sent by someone, Fang Xing said to Xin Lao Qi: "Lao Qi, greet the people in Fangjiazhuang, let's go back first."

Dong Pi was in a hurry to watch the people from Fangjiazhuang come out of the team, and under the leadership of Xin Laoqi, they packed up the special products brought from Jiaozhi, then took Fang Xing in the middle and walked away.

"Mr. Fang! Me, what should I do?"

Dong Pi didn't play a central role in this Southern Expedition, he was used to Fang Xing calling the shots, but Fang Xing just walked away without saying hello.

What should I do?

"My lord, the officials from the Ministry of Rituals are here!"

"The Ministry of Rites? Why is the Ministry of Rites here?"

"What! You can't go to the city yet, you have to take a bath first, and you have to change clothes for Chen Jikuo?"

After learning that he would lead the prisoner offering ceremony, Dong Pi had enshrined three big pig heads to Fang Xing in his heart.

Good man!

Fang Xing, who didn't know that he had been issued a good person card, was already looking forward to returning home.

It was the beginning of July, and the rice in the field had already begun to drop heavy ears. The farmers in Fangjiazhuang were all happy to see the harvest, but it was a pity that the young master was not here.

Boss Li gently touched the ears of rice in his house, and said with emotion: "I don't know when the young master will come back. The rice is about to be harvested, so I have to let the young master eat the first bite of this rice!"

His wife also frowned and said: "I went to Nengren Temple yesterday and burned a few sticks of incense for the young master, and asked the Buddha to bless the young master to come back safely."

Boss Li wanted to say that his wife was too wasteful, but when he thought that Fang woke up and didn't come back for a long time, he fell silent.

"There are big horses!"

At this time, a child who was running wildly in the field suddenly pointed in the direction of entering the village and shouted.

"It's the young master! The young master is back!"

The farmers who were inspecting the field heard the shout, and all ran from the field to the main road to meet them.

A group of knights ran over like a whirlwind, and then slowly slowed down.

Fang Xing sat on the horseback, looked at the farmers with fiery eyes, and waved: "I'm back, everyone, please rest assured."

The farmers crowded around and saw that Fang Xing had no signs of injury, so they all cheered and went home to announce the good news.

"Young lady, the young master is back!"

In fact, Zhang Shuhui had already heard the cheers outside, but she couldn't believe it. The letter I received half a month ago said that there was going to be a big war, so why did you get home today?

Seeing that she was not moving, Xiaobai stomped his feet and rushed out.

Zhang Shuhui felt that her calm heart gradually began to fluctuate.

"Master!"

"Wow woof!"

Zhang Shuhui felt that her eyes were a little hot, she turned around slowly, and saw a man with disheveled hair and a gray face, holding a much bigger bell and looking at her.

"Husband... Husband..."

As soon as Fang Xing saw the tears on Zhang Shuhui's face, he immediately raised his hand and said, "Don't cry, I'll be back after taking a shower."

The person who had just arrived disappeared in a blink of an eye, Zhang Shuhui couldn't help but chuckle, and then called Xiaobai to prepare a change of clothes together.

"Go and inform Hua Niang to prepare the food and drink, oh no, she must know the news of your husband's return."

The two took their clothes and walked outside the bathroom, Zhang Shuhui was a little shy and embarrassed to go in.

"...The feeling of going home is not far ahead, the old songs are singing childhood dreams, no matter how vast the world you have traveled, the longing in your heart is still the same place..."

Just when Zhang Shuhui was hesitating, there was a burst of singing from inside.

In the end, Zhang Shuhui still didn't dare to go in, so she pushed Xiaobai and said, "Hurry up and send the clothes to my husband, and wipe his back by the way."

After more than ten minutes, Fang Xing came out with wet hair. Zhang Shuhui paid special attention to Xiao Bai, but when she saw that Xiao Bai hadn't changed her clothes, she felt relieved for no reason.

The bell wagged its tail in circles under the kang, Fang Xing immediately threw a piece of dried meat down.

This is dried crocodile meat, which Fang Xing brought back for Ling Dang to eat.

Bell lowered his head and sniffed at Fang Xing's feet, before lying on the side with the dried meat in his mouth.

Looking at Zhang Shuhui with a slightly flushed face, Fang Xing wished it was night now, Zhang Shuhui was looked down by those fiery eyes.

"Master, the food is ready, do you want to serve it now?"

Only then did Fang Xing look away, looking at the smiling Hua Niang outside, he coughed dryly, "Hua Niang has worked hard, let's go."

A table of dishes is very rich, and there is actually a bowl of fish soup, which tastes very good.

Xiaobai squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "Master, this fish is raised in our field, and it is just waiting for you to come back and start catching it!"

The rice is already harvested, and water must be released.

Fang Xing felt that although the fish was not big, the meat was sweet and delicious, much tastier than the ones sold in the market.

"That's two days."
