***

The Son of Heaven returned triumphantly, and hundreds of officials came out to greet him; Nanjing's thousands of empty alleys are full of people.

Murder Yingye restores the city, and the meteor is used as a horse and the moon as a lamp. At night, he chased a single order in 80,000 miles and stepped on the first peak of Qishan. This imperial poem was once again passed down by mouth to praise the martial arts of the Son of Heaven.

The tens of thousands of newly victorious divisions that followed the triumph of the Son of Heaven were high-spirited, the army was neat, and the long banners were covered like clouds, and they accepted the warm cheers of the people who ushered in Daozuo.

Bouquets of flowers, baskets of fruits and vegetables, pots of water and wine, and the enthusiasm of the people of Nanjing made many soldiers burst into tears.

Warm drum music, blowing all the way, the willows on both sides of the Qinhuai River are gently blowing in the wind, like a beauty singing and dancing.

Qin Ye, the five-year-old crown prince, respectfully kowtowed to Qin Mu three times, and said in a elegant voice: "My father has returned triumphantly, and my sons are late, please forgive my father, and my sons congratulate my father, congratulate my father, pacify Qinghai-Tibet, recover the Hetao, and clear the desert." ”

Qin Mu jumped off the horse, went up to pick him up and said with a smile: "Ye'er, who taught you this?" ”

Qin Ye was a little embarrassed, but he didn't hide it, and replied in a low voice: "Imperial father, it was taught by my mother." ”

"Then do you know where Qinghai-Tibet, Hetao, and Monan are?"

"Back to my father, my son knew that my mother pointed it out to my son on the globe, and my mother said that those places were far away, far away, and my father was so hard"

"Hahaha, yes, in fact, it's not very far, when you grow up and learn to ride a horse, you will take you hunting for your father in the future."

"Father, really, will my father really take his sons?"

"Of course, you don't have any jokes."

"Thank you, thank you, thank you." Qin Ye was like a bird that had been locked up for a long time and was overjoyed when he saw the clear blue sky.

Yang Tinglin, who was standing in the front row of the ministers who came to greet him, saw that there was no one next to the emperor, and said so many things to the prince at once. looked like a father and a son, and couldn't help but secretly breathe.

Last time, Li Jiqing's sloppiness made him, the ruler of the country, really scared, but the Son of Heaven didn't ask, and with his character, he didn't bother to explain, and this kind of situation, taking the initiative to explain it would be suspected of being a thief.

But without explanation, this matter has been weighing on his heart like a boulder, making him almost breathless.

Actually, see this sight. Sima An and the others didn't secretly breathe a sigh of relief, especially on the way back to Nanjing this time, Qin Mu suddenly used the night not to collect, bypassed the normal judicial process, and questioned the local officials, which made them think of the Jinyi Wei of the former Ming Dynasty at once. Secretly worried that this was the prelude to a storm.

Of course, after all, the crown prince is still young, and it is normal that the emperor does not blame him, and then it depends on how the emperor deals with Li Jilong. If the emperor just cleaned up Li Jilong alone and didn't take the opportunity to make trouble, then this level would really be over.

Qin Mu took his son in his arms and rode back to the city together. The population of Nanjing has reached 2.6 million, and the prosperous scene is not comparable to Xijing, with clean and tidy asphalt roads and willows on both sides. Waiguo, which used to be relatively empty, has now built a large number of new houses, forming a lively street market.

What surprised Qin Mu was. Many of the newly built houses are two- or three-story buildings with mixed earth structures. Qin Mu didn't expect that after leaving for a year, Nanjing would have such a big change.

Jiangnan has always been the first to open up the atmosphere, and cement was first made and used in Jiangnan. The people of Nanjing are generally relatively wealthy, and it is reasonable to be able to build such a small building.

Different from the buildings of later generations, although these small buildings are made of concrete, each family is still accustomed to using reinforced concrete to make the appearance of cornices and arches, and the top floor is also inlaid with glazed tiles, and the style is still similar to the original wooden building, which is antique.

After returning to the Great Qin Palace, Qin Mu feasted the ministers, and rewarded the meritorious generals such as Meng Ke, Ma Yongzhen, Hao Shaoqi, and Qin Zuoming.

The ministers stepped forward to toast together, and then congratulated the Son of Heaven on his victory, and the scene looked very warm and festive.

After Qin Mu drank the wine toasted by the ministers, he said with emotion: "I am on a conquest abroad, and the government affairs of the DPRK and China are all carefully taken care of by the ministers.

The soldiers in front of the battlefield are naturally meritorious. However, if there were no ministers in the rear to take care of government affairs and dispatch grain and grass, there would have been such a great victory. Therefore, your ministers are also indispensable. ”

On behalf of the ministers in Nanjing, Lu Zhenfei, a member of the Cabinet University, stepped forward and replied: "Your Majesty has praised it falsely, and the ministers are loyal to the king, but they have only fulfilled their own responsibilities, and they really dare not take credit."

His Majesty is the Son of Heaven, the royal driving is a personal expedition, the meal wind is dewed, the enemy is driven in thousands of miles, Bu Tianwei is in the universe, and the four Yi are not afraid of it, and they surrender to the wind. His Majesty's martial arts, chasing the three emperors and five emperors, and the ministers are His Majesty! ”

"The ministers are His Majesty!"

Hundreds of officials bowed down one after another, and from their attitudes, it could be clearly seen that Qin Mu's prestige was not comparable to the past, and that kind of awe-inspiring look was revealed on the faces of every minister.

Qin Mu also rewarded the ministers of Nanjing one by one, and everyone was very happy.

Taichang Temple and the Teaching Workshop Division came out to present songs and dances, and the main ones were the two large-scale songs and dances "No Clothes" and "Pu Jia", which pushed the atmosphere of the imperial banquet to a climax.

This grand royal banquet was dispersed until the evening, Qin Mu returned to the harem with three points of drunkenness, only to see the queen Yang Zhi and Gu Hanyan, Bian Yujing and other concubines, who were surrounding the red lady, listening to her talk about the Longyou war, and the palace maids around listened to it as if they were drunk.

The palace maid outside the Kunning Palace was just about to shout that His Majesty had arrived, but was stopped by Qin Mu, and as soon as he stepped into the threshold, a little girl about two years old suddenly rushed out of the door, with a little vermilion in the center of her eyebrows, beautiful like a porcelain doll, and almost hit Qin Mu's feet.

"Princess, be careful!" The palace maid next to her pounced in panic.

"Who is this, it's my baby Mingyue, right?" Qin Mu's face suddenly felt a clear breeze and moonlight, and his eyes narrowed with a smile.

The little girl looked up at him with her head tilted, and a pair of big eyes sparkled at him, very curious.

"Concubine to see Your Majesty" Yang Zhi and the others came up to salute, Qin Mu waved his hand to them, squatted down and picked up the little girl, pounced! Take a kiss.

The girl wiped the saliva from her face and asked in a childish voice, "Who are you?" ”

"Mingyue, don't be rude, this is your father, call your father!" Bian Yujing was in a hurry.

"Mingyue is good, call Daddy, call quickly, Daddy has something fun for you." Qin Mu said as he gestured to the female officer behind him.

"Are you really my daddy?"

The little girl blinked her eyes and asked this sentence, almost making Bian Yujing dizzy, and Qin Mu also choked.

When he went on the expedition, the little girl still couldn't walk, and in the past year, the little girl has been running all over the ground, which is really emotional.

"Tell Daddy, did my brother bully you, Daddy beat him for you." Qin Mu immediately adopted the strategy of encircling Wei to save Zhao, and it really worked.

"Daddy, my brother snatched my dog yesterday" The little girl immediately straightened up, her little hands pointed around, but she didn't find Qin Ye, she couldn't help scratching her head, that cute appearance made Qin Mu feel happy, the key was that Daddy made him smile from ear to ear.

After a while, several eunuchs carried in a cage containing two fluffy giant pandas, Mingyue was stunned when she saw it, and her father didn't want it, so he struggled down and ran over, and the crisp laughter resounded throughout Kunning Palace.

The second Qin Jing can also walk, and when Qin Mu went to hug him, he was already looking at the cute giant panda outside the door.

"Call Daddy, and Daddy will let you play with your sister."

"Daddy" The little guy is not allowed to have his hair in his hair, and it is weird to call his father, which makes Qin Mu laugh again.

His sister Mingyue was already outside the door, screaming and jumping excitedly: "Second brother, come on, come on, sister will give you one"

Ooh! Full of generosity.

Qin Mu now has three sons and two daughters, after letting the palace maid take Qin Jing out, Yang Zhi asked people to bring Qin Poyu and Qin Baguio, the two villains are only seven or eight months old, Qin Mu loves one when he sees one. Well, how to put it, the wife is the good of others, and the children are good of themselves. Holding his own child, it is naturally a heartfelt joy, and he is very busy after teasing this and that.

As a result, in a few clicks, the two villains were made to cry, and for a while, chickens and dogs jumped in Kunning Palace
