C643 Attack Preparation
Yang Guang was furious and said loudly: "He returned with great achievements, am I not the same? Why did he receive me within five kilometers, while I gave way to him! "2
Although he said that, he knew clearly in his heart that if it was his contribution, it would be extremely prominent. However, compared to Shen Muqing's contribution, it was not even worth mentioning.
He had no choice but to keep the resentment in his heart. He shouted hoarsely, "Take the route! Take the route!"
His voice was laced with grief and indignation, and this feeling was heartbreaking.
On the other side, Shen Muqing and Zhao Kuangyin were having a conversation at the banquet.
Wu raised his glass and said, "This toast to Ninth Brother for the destruction of the Kingdom of Liang and for the expulsion of Ta Lu. I am the hero of Huaxia."
Shen Muqing smiled, "They are all working for the imperial government. Fourth Brother is too polite!"
Liu Che said, "Ninth Brother, why are you so modest? This time, the credit for your hard work is hard to come by. You actually left your name on the history book, no one can challenge it. Otherwise, do you think Second Brother and Third Brother would easily agree to meet you? It wasn't that they didn't want to! but rather, you don't dare to do so at all! "
Zhao Kuangyin suddenly thought of something.
"In the past, the Governor of the 72nd region, Ninth Brother and Feng Prince of Yan were almost certain of winning. Who would have thought that Second Brother, Third Brother, would interfere! Drag this matter down! I wonder what they are plotting! "
Liu Che scoffed coldly, "No matter what they are plotting, all they want is to struggle for a bit! If I want to catch Ninth Brother's weakness, I can guarantee that they will definitely attack Ninth Brother tomorrow at the assembly! "
Shen Muqing sighed, "The trees desire peace but the winds never stop. What can I do? It's just a show of force. I can take it with a clear conscience! It's not up to the words of others! "
Liu Che said, "Ninth Brother, I'm relieved for saying that. We'll definitely do our best to help tomorrow."
The three of them began to talk again. The banquet had just ended at dusk.
Zhao Kuangyin said, "It's getting late, so it's better for Ninth Brother to return early. Otherwise, sister-in-law will be worried again —"
Shen Muqing smiled and did not act like a manly man.
After bidding farewell, the two royal brothers and Shi Yaozhong and Sunflower returned to the palace.
At this moment, Zhangsun Wugou from the Wu Steel Manor was already waiting with the crowd. When she saw Shen Muqing, she immediately greeted him, "Greetings, husband! We welcome you, my husband, back to your residence! "
Just as she was in the middle of kowtowing, Shen Muqing had already helped her up.
He glanced at the imperial concubines and said, "All of you get up. Why are you all being so restrained at home?"
Everyone returned to the manor happily. Usually, Shen Muqing wasn't here either. Zhangsun Wugou was in charge of the manor, and the rules were strict. Everyone was in awe and could not help but be restrained.
Only when Shen Muqing came back, Zhangsun Wugou didn't have too many rules under Shen Muqing's request.
This gave everyone a chance to catch their breath.
On the other side, Shen Muqing chatted with everyone.
Not long after, a person came in to report that someone in the imperial court had heard that Prince of Ning had returned. Many ministers came to meet him.
Shen Muqing casually said, "Let them leave their gifts behind!"
However, Zhangsun Wugou said gently, "Husband, you should put more emphasis on national affairs! We all know that our husband is a man of his word. "He doesn't like to form alliances and engage in private relations, but in the imperial court, even if the waters were clear, there would still be no fish in the water, and in the long run, it would inevitably spread that his husband's reputation of being proud and aloof did not have a good effect on his husband."
Shen Muqing said casually, "This King has no regrets. Whatever you say, let them be!"
