274. Crowned

On the 25th year of Jing'an, on the second day of the second month, the barbarians and Dajingchao once again made a truce.

Mu Yunzheng, who was about to set off to continue looking for Rong Qiaoyan, was stopped by Duke Ping who rushed over.

"Crown Prince," Duke Ping quickly greeted him.

Duke Ping, who is over fifty years old, looks older than his actual age because he has been fighting for many years and is in the bitter and cold place of the north.

The Duke of Pingguo Mansion is a truly loyal family of military generals who charge on the front line.

Men at home can choose not to go to the military camp to experience after having their hair tied up, but after getting the crown, they will definitely go to the battlefield to kill the enemy.

Because the army of Zhenbei Army was stationed outside Xining Town and faced the barbarians the most, the direct men of the Duke of Pingguo's mansion had many casualties.

Four years ago, a snow disaster in the north, the barbarians who had already had no food or drink actually attacked Dajingchao.

Therefore, in that fierce battle, the Duke of Pingguo's Mansion suffered heavy casualties.

In the mansion of Duke Ping of the border, there is only a man like Duke Ping who can go to the battlefield.

At this time, there was only a five-year-old young male in the Duke of Pingguo's mansion in the capital.

In the court, all the ministers felt that the Duke Pingguo Mansion had already been exhausted.

After all, Duke Ping is fifty-two now, and that child is only five years old.

Children are prone to death. Who knows whether that child can live until he grows up and take over the power of Duke Ping?

Besides, even if that child can grow up safely, is he really capable of taking over the leadership of Zhenbei Army?

All the generals in the Zhenbei Army may not be willing to submit to Duke Ping, but they may not be willing to submit to a yellow-haired child.

However, Mu Yunzheng respects Duke Ping very much.

Who can disrespect a loyal and martyrdom of Sheng family?

"Mr. Sheng, I don't know what orders are there?" Since Duke Ping called him the prince at this time, it must be a matter of the army.

"The prince, May 16th is your birthday. The emperor's special order is to make you return to Beijing." Duke Ping said with a smile.

"It's just a birthday. If you can't pass it, it's not necessary."

Mu Yunzheng thought it was something important, but he heard that he was celebrating his birthday and said nothing.

"This year is the birthday of the crown prince's crown. The emperor has instructed me to let the old ministers go back." Duke Ping said with a wry smile.

Since the 22nd year of Jing'an, Mu Yunzheng has never returned to the capital.

When the emperor asked, he could only go there vaguely.

Fortunately, Mu Yunzheng was stationed outside Wang'an City, not under his nose. Therefore, when Mu Yunzheng ran out, he could also say that he didn't know.

However, this year the emperor issued a special order, so he naturally wanted to tell him.

Mu Yunzheng was stunned when he heard this.

Yes, this year is his 20th birthday, and it is time to win the championship. It seems that it is not possible to not return to the capital.

In this case, we can start from the prefectures and counties from the north to the capital.

Miaozhi, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but feel melancholy as she listened to the conversation between Duke Ping and Mu Yunzheng.

It's been two years since Prince Mu found a lady for two years, and her child is now over one year old.

After sending Prince Mu and Yan Wei away that year, she was unwell and hired a doctor to find out that she was one month pregnant.

At the beginning of last year, the child was born and was over one year old this year.

Time flies so fast, but where is the lady?

If the lady is alive, why don’t she come to find her? She has no family except Yan Wei and her children.

family....

Thinking of this, Miaozhi's thoughts moved.

She saw Duke Ping get the right words to Mu Yunzheng return to Beijing, and wrote a letter and replied with satisfaction.

Mu Yunzheng arranged for everyone to pack up and prepare to go to the capital.

So Miaozhi pulled Yanwei back to the house where they lived in the back alley.

"Husband, after you have been to the capital this time, if you don't have a destination, go to Haizhou to see Madam Yang and Brother Zhou. I have only written two letters to them because I was pregnant and took care of my son. However, I have never received a reply. I don't know if the letter was delivered to Madam Yang and the others?"

Miaozhi said with a sigh.

The north is bitter and cold, and there are frequent wars - even if there is a truce, there will be a small group of barbarians who will cause chaos from time to time, so communication is not so easy.

And her letter is also a letter from home, so it is difficult to walk through the post station.

In addition, she became pregnant and had a child, and she was full of panic as a mother at first, so in the past two years, she has only written two letters to Mama Yang and the others.

I don’t know if the letter was delivered, but she didn’t receive the reply anyway.

Now, Madam Yang and Zhou Lei are the ones she has been with for nearly ten years, and can be considered a family member.

If the prince is looking for a goal, it is better to let Yan Wei travel to Haizhou and visit him.

This matter is not a big deal, so Yan Wei naturally agreed immediately.

Miaozhi happily wrote a thick letter and handed it to Yan Wei.

"You should take good care of me at home, and I'll be back in winter."

Yan Wei said nostalgically at his wife whom he was about to not see for a year.

Looking for Rong Qiaoyan is the common wish of his master and wife, so even if he runs around and cannot stay with his family all the time, he will have no complaints.

"Well. Just find the lady soon." Miaozhi also said to Yan Wei with tears in her eyes.

Who doesn’t want your husband to be with you?

However, the lady who has been with her for nearly ten years also makes her worry.

*******

On May 14th, Mu Yunzheng arrived in the capital two days before his birthday.

This made Emperor Jing'an unable to help but feel angry, but also heartbroken.

"You are cruel. You have been there for almost three years and have not come back. This time, don't go again, right? You have enough experience."

Emperor Jing'an couldn't help but persuade the child when he was raised.

Mu Yunzheng left in August of the 22nd year of Jing'an, and it is now May of the 25th year. Isn't it almost three years?

"There are also many generals on the border who have not returned home for many years."

Mu Yunzheng, whose face was even colder and solemn, smiled and comforted Emperor Jing'an.

"You...you kid..." Emperor Jing An held his forehead helplessly.

"You have never understood me. Do you know that the Queen Mother and Mrs. Yang come to me all day long and say that I will send you to the border and not let you come back; and you will be crowned soon and never make a marriage for you; I say that I am not responsible for being an uncle; I say that I am sorry for your mother's life-saving grace, and say..."

Emperor Jing'an talked endlessly like a nagging old man.

Mu Yunzheng just smiled and listened to his uncle who was like a father, nagging, and did not refute.

Seeing Mu Yunzheng like this, Emperor Jing'an had to deflate and talk about his crown ceremony.

When Mu Yunzheng heard that the ceremony of adding the crown was actually held in the palace, he naturally refused to say that it was not etiquette.

It would be fine if the prince gave a crown in the palace, but the crown prince's ceremony of a prince would be held in the palace, which would be inconsistent with the rules.

"What's wrong with you being raised by the Queen Mother's knees and being taught by me, just like my own son?"

Emperor Jing'an said domineeringly.

After saying this, Emperor Jing'an began to talk about Mu Yunzheng and him and other words.

Mu Yunzheng was so angry that he finally agreed helplessly.

On May 16th, in the palace, Mu Yunzheng's crown ceremony was successfully held under the witness of everyone.

Among the princes, some are envious, some are jealous, and naturally some are happy.
