Chapter 583: I Can’t See but I Can Hear

Half a month later, Ning Chen finally arrived in the capital with his army.

Outside the east city gate, flags were fluttering.

A three-mile radius was blocked by the Dragon Guard Army.

Because Emperor Xuan personally led hundreds of civil and military officials out of the city to welcome Ning Chen in triumph.

Emperor Xuan looked into the distance from time to time.

"Why haven't you arrived yet?"

Eunuch Quan had a smile on his face, "Your Majesty, don't be anxious. I just reported that Ning Chen is already five miles away."

"Five miles left? Why so slow?"

Eunuch Quan snickered, only Ning Chen could make His Majesty so concerned.

But they haven't seen each other for more than half a year, and he misses Ning Chen very much.

Just when Emperor Xuan was waiting impatiently, the sound of clanging iron cavalry and dust flying came from the distance.

"Your Majesty, here you come!"

"I saw it!"

Ning Chen saw Emperor Long Chu from a distance and couldn't help being surprised. He didn't know that Emperor Xuan would lead all the civil and military officials out of the city to greet him.

Tai raised his hand and the army stopped.

Ning Chen got off his horse and ran over quickly.

"My lord, see your majesty!"

Ning Chen knelt down and worshiped.

It didn't matter that he knelt down, Dubu jumped out from the bamboo basket on his back.

Dubu has grown very fast and now weighs about thirty-five pounds. Because of the good food, his hair is smooth and shiny, like silk and satin, and he is very majestic.

This frightened Emperor Xuan and all the civil and military officials present.

The imperial guards drew their swords one after another.

"Dubu, get down!"

Ning Chen drank lowly.

Dubu stretched, ran to Ning Chen and lay down next to him.

Everyone was shocked. Although the tiger looked like a cub, it was the king of beasts after all. How could he listen to Ning Chen so much?

"Ning Chen, you are so presumptuous that you dare to disturb the Holy Master. According to the law, you should be punished by a hundred rods."

A speaker jumped out and said loudly.

Dubu felt the malice and roared at the Yan Guan.

It's a pity that it is still too young and does not have the momentum of roaring tigers and frightened beasts in the mountains.

But he was the king of beasts after all, and his roar was mixed with the sound of milk, but it also frightened the horses around him to neigh and become irritable and restless.

Ning Chen ignored the commentator. These experts were all mentally ill.

"Your Majesty, don't be afraid. His name is Dubu, and he was picked up by me... It's just a cub, and Dubu is humane and won't hurt anyone."

Ning Chen put down the bamboo basket, "Dubu, go in!"

Dubu jumped into the bamboo basket, scratched the edge of the bamboo basket, and looked at everyone curiously.

It lives in a military camp and is not afraid of people at all, but is very close to them.

Emperor Xuan found it interesting and didn't care about disturbing the holy driver.

He waved, "Come forward and let me have a look."

Ning Chen stood up and stepped forward.

He stood up on the spot, walked up to him, looked him up and down, and patted his shoulder, "He's getting stronger and taller... He's taller than me now."

Even if Emperor Xuan didn't tell him, he didn't notice that he seemed to have grown taller again. He was not as tall as Emperor Xuan before.

Emperor Xuan is about 1.78 meters tall. He is a little taller than Emperor Xuan now, he should be 1.8 meters tall.

Emperor Xuan looked at Ning Chen with relief on his face.

"How's the journey going?"

"Your Majesty, everything goes well!"

Emperor Xuan smiled with a smile on his face, "That's good, let's go home with me!"

"According to the order!"

Ning Chen ordered the Ning'an army to return to camp.

Just as he was about to get on his horse, Emperor Xuan called out: "Ning Chen, come here... ride with me."

"This...I don't dare to overstep my bounds."

Emperor Xuan's face was stern, "Come here quickly."

Ning Chen had no choice but to hand Dubu over to Feng Qizheng, while he got on Emperor Xuan's carriage.

The emperor's carriage is called Tianzi Jialiu.

It is a carriage drawn by six horses. The carriage is like a small mobile palace.

The eldest prince leaned forward and asked for the order, "Father, I am willing to carry a whip and drive for my father and King Xuanwu."

Emperor Xuan nodded slightly, "That's right!"

The prince drives and sits with the emperor. This kind of treatment is unique in the entire history of Daxuan. Ning Chen is the first.

All civil and military officials in the dynasty, even the prime minister, could only stand on their knees in front of the emperor.

In the carriage, Emperor Xuan looked at Ning Chen. His eyes were clearly that of an old father looking at his son, and he was extremely satisfied with this son.

"Ning Chen, I haven't seen you for more than half a year. Do you miss me?"

Ning Chen nodded seriously, "Of course I have. I miss His Majesty so much that I no longer have the style to dress, no longer have the passion to walk, and I no longer have a relationship with anyone!"

Father-in-law Quan's mouth twitched...Flattery!

Emperor Xuan endured it for a long time before he could laugh out loud.

He said with a straight face, "If you miss me so much, why did you write to Quan Sheng and the others instead of me?"

"Well!!!"

Everyone is stunned. I didn’t expect that Your Majesty still remembers this matter?

Ning Chen laughed dryly, "I don't dare!"

"Um?"

Ning Chen lowered his eyebrows and said submissively: "I have disappointed Your Majesty with the matter between me and the Empress of Wu Kingdom... I have no shame in writing to Your Majesty."

Emperor Xuan snorted, "It's good to know!"

"I know the crime!"

Emperor Xuan glared at him, "Have you written any new poems recently?"

"Uh...yes!"

"What poem? Tell me quickly."

"When I was attacking Linhai City, I was inspired by the idea on the beach and wrote a masterpiece."

In Emperor Xuan's expectant eyes, Ning Chen said: "Ah... the sea is full of water, the horse has four legs, woman, you are so beautiful, you actually have a mouth under your nose..."

Father-in-law Quan really couldn't hold it back and burst into laughter.

The corner of Emperor Xuan's mouth twitched, "Is this your masterpiece? What a piece of junk, you dare to fool me, believe it or not, I will punish you for a great disrespect?"

Ning Chen looked innocent, "This poem of mine is mainly realistic!"

"Turn around... I asked you to be realistic, I asked you to be realistic..."

Emperor Xuan asked Ning Chen to turn around and kicked him in the ass.

All the eunuchs were dumbfounded!

Ning Chen quickly reminded, "Your Majesty, pay attention to your manners!"

Emperor Xuan said, "It's okay, they can't see it."

The eldest prince who was driving the car had a black line on his forehead. The civil and military officials couldn't see it, but they could hear it.

The civil and military officials looked at each other.

Is this still the steady and virtuous Emperor Xuan they know?

After entering the city, Emperor Xuan asked the eldest prince to drive directly into the palace.

"I have already asked people to prepare a banquet to welcome you."

Ning Chen: "..."

He really didn't want to eat the food in the palace, or to be more precise, he didn't want to eat with Emperor Xuan.

After that set of procedures, the hot oil can be cooled down, and you can't eat a single hot dish.

It's okay if it's cold, the key is that you can't eat more than three bites of each dish... you can't be full at all.

"Your Majesty, can we not go to the palace? I want to eat the roast duck at Tianfulou!"

The Emperor thought for a while, "Okay, then I'll do as you say... I haven't eaten it for a long time."

As soon as he finished speaking, he lifted the curtain on the small window of the carriage.

Nie Liang, who was accompanying the guard, hurriedly approached.

After the Emperor Xuan gave a few instructions, Nie Liang and his men galloped away.

Ning Chen asked Feng Qizhen and others to go back first.

The Emperor Xuan couldn't let others eat at the same table with him.

"This is the first time I've seen the current emperor."

Yue Congyun said as he looked at the emperor driving away.

Feng Qizhen looked at her, "How do you feel?"

"More kind than I thought."

Feng Qizhen smiled and said, "Your Majesty is indeed a benevolent emperor throughout history, but your Majesty's kindness is limited to Ning Chen... Everyone says that your Majesty gives all his favors to you, Ning Chen."

Yue Congyun was silent for a while, and suddenly said, "The prince deserves favor... With him, Daxuan has no worries!"
