Rebirth to Zero (MTL)

Chapter 42: The journey is a journey

The imperial edict was quickly transmitted to Jueling City, and Emperor Yanxi ordered Jun Lixuan to lead his army back to Beijing immediately. He also praised the second prince Jun Chengjing for his meritorious service in helping the battle. He will be rewarded after returning to his fiefdom.

Jun Lixuan arranged troops and horses, and after three days he broke camp and returned to Beijing.

Before leaving, King You came to see him off.

"Thanks to King Lin for helping me this time, otherwise the country of You would be in danger." Thinking of the twists and turns of the war in the end, King You had mixed feelings in his heart. Fortunately, everything was over.

"Your Majesty, you are welcome. The country of You is a vassal state of Daye, and it is necessary to help when there is trouble." Jun Lixuan said.

"In any case, King Lin helped the people of our country escape from the sea of ​​suffering. This kind of kindness will never be forgotten by me." The vicissitudes of life in King You's eyes have not disappeared because of the cessation of the war, which shows that he is still working hard.

"This is all the grace of my father. I am just obeying the decree." Jun Lixuan thought that he could not bear the praise of King You.

"Your Majesty is too modest. To be honest, if someone else had led the troops this time, they might not have been able to repel the Chize Army. Just look at your method of dealing with the Chize Vanguard Army." King You is also telling the truth. To be honest, I didn't mean any flattery at all.

"I just happened to have a way." After all, this credit shouldn't go to him.

King You smiled and said, "Sometimes I think it's a coincidence, but don't you know it's not God's will?"

Jun Lixuan didn't answer. Maybe some things were really arranged secretly.

King You took a step forward and said in a voice that only two people could hear: "If one day, King Lin wants to be the crown prince, I will definitely support him without any hesitation."

Jun Lixuan looked at King You and said, "I don't care about the throne. King You thinks too much." After all, he and King You were not familiar with each other, and he had to treat some things with caution even if the other party expressed his attitude. Besides, he really has no interest in that position.

King You looked at him in surprise, "You..."

"I accept the king's kindness. I hope that King You can restore You country to its former glory as soon as possible. This is the blessing of the people." Jun Lixuan said seriously.

King You stepped back to the original distance and said with a smile: "In that case, I don't have much to say. I will go to Ye State to pay tribute in a while, and then I will have three drinks with King Lin."

"Very good. It's getting late, so I'll take my leave." Jun Lixuan said, cupping his fists.

You Guojun nodded, "I wish you a safe journey, Your Majesty."

After that, the army left Jueling City in great numbers and embarked on the road back to Beijing...

After the army had left for a day, Jun Lixuan took advantage of the night when he was setting up camp to rest. He took Ling Qiyang with him, got on the carriage prepared in advance, left the army, and ran towards Jun Chengjing's fiefdom. In order not to arouse suspicion, Jun Lixuan asked two secret guards to pretend to be him and Ling Qiyang to fill up the army. And by leaving Ming Li there as a show, and with Ling Hongzhi's cover, it can be said to be foolproof.

The carriage was running on the small road, and the driver was Jun Lixuan's shadow guard. He usually only appeared when he was on the road. When the carriage stopped, he didn't know where to hide.
