Chapter 1180 - 1182: Triumphant Return!
The Commander laughed heartily and said, "Princess, you’re joking. If it weren’t for the arrangements you made initially in the Imperial Study Room, we wouldn’t have today’s success. The Eldest Princess has indeed made an invaluable contribution."
Mo Shu glanced lazily at him and snorted softly, "That’s not what you said before."
The Commander smiled somewhat embarrassedly, clasped his hands, and apologized, "Princess, please forgive me. At that time, it was really..."
"Enough," Mo Shu walked beside Yu Siqiao and said, "I have always been dedicated to this country. Moyan Country would never be harmed by me. Alright, let’s go, I’m tired."
The Commander hurriedly said, "Princess, please proceed!"
The entire procession grandly entered the Imperial City.
At the entrance of the Imperial Palace, the welcoming crowd was unprecedentedly massive.
The Emperor stood in the center, surrounded by attendants, like the moon among stars, smiling brightly. Standing beside him was Grandpa Shen and the concubines, each showing their most beautiful smile to welcome their return.
Mo Shu, disguised as a man, sat high on a horse. Although she appeared lazy, there was a distinct air of impressive heroism that was different from her usual self.
Looking at such a daughter, the Emperor couldn’t help but sigh with emotion, saying, "Shushu has truly grown up."
Hearing this, Grandpa Shen immediately said, "Naturally, Your Majesty, the Princess not only can shoulder burdens and solve problems for Your Majesty now but also cares for the country and personally went to the battlefield to assist and oversee. Truly, a woman not inferior to men, all thanks to Your Majesty’s excellent guidance."
The Emperor, entertained, couldn’t help but laugh heartily and went forward to welcome them.
Seeing this, Grandpa Shen knew he had flattered correctly and quickly followed with a smile.
The concubines dared not fall behind, so they all advanced in full force, in vibrant colors, crowding around the Emperor to welcome the return.
The Emperor’s gaze finally moved from his daughter to the leading General Song, smiling broadly, "My beloved minister, you have worked hard!"
Since entering the Imperial City, everyone had dismounted and walked energetically.
Now, seeing the Emperor, they were full of excitement and gratitude, all kneeling down in unison, calling out, "Greetings, Your Majesty!"
General Song, taking the lead, appeared the most excited, proclaiming, "Your servant has returned!"
As he spoke, he knelt down grandly.
However, just for a moment, the Emperor stopped him.
The Emperor was also very happy, laughing heartily, "My beloved minister, there is no need for such formalities. This time you’ve performed a great service, and I must reward you heavily!"
General Song also laughed, candidly saying, "Your Majesty overpraises me. The greatest contribution this time is from the Prince Consort. I never expected that such a gentle and refined young man could possess such strategic wisdom. If it weren’t for the Prince Consort’s repeated guidance, I might have caused a huge mistake!"
The Emperor was surprised and delighted, "Is that so?"
His gaze naturally fell on Yu Siqiao.
Yu Siqiao looked much thinner, and his skin had turned much darker.
The Emperor wondered if it was his illusion, but he felt Si Qiao’s appearance seemed to have changed, looking more handsome than before!
Noticing the Emperor’s gaze, Yu Siqiao stepped forward, bowed, and said, "Your Majesty, General Song overstates. I merely did my humble part."
"Enough, don’t be so modest," General Song laughed heartily, "Your Majesty, you should credit the Prince Consort with the highest merit!"
