Chapter 76 The Tragic Baoyu
"Oh, how ugly!" Xiangyun opened her eyes wide and watched, "Look at how miserable these people are. No wonder they are no match for my third brother!"
"Sister Yun is wrong!" Baochai shook her head and laughed, "This Luosha country is the great enemy of our Daqian. They have been invading the border since the time of Taizu. During the time of Taizong, we fought with them for decades. Now they are invading the border again. Although our Daqian is also strong in military and horses, we have won and lost half of the battles. It's not that these Luosha ghosts are too weak, but that Brother Cong is too strong."
"Girl Yun, you are such a small person, you can't defeat any random Rakshasa ghost!"
A group of people were quietly bickering in the colorful tent, but they knew they couldn't make a fuss.
It took less than half an hour for all the prisoners to pass by!
Afterwards, another long congratulatory message was read, and the emperor then ordered that some of the captives be taken to the Taimiao to be presented as captives, and the rest be sent to the Beijing camp for detention.
"Generals, come forward and listen to the order!"
Following the order, the generals in the army began to move forward! This time, the team was naturally much better looking than before, at least their armor was neat and their spirits were far superior to those of the captives.
"Is third brother coming?" Xichun asked curiously.
Daiyu nodded, "Third brother has made great contributions this time, so of course he will not be left out!"
After several waves of people passed by, a group of black-armored cavalry slowly came. What was different from the others was that most of the people who had just passed by had only ten or eight soldiers behind them, and many of them were even walking alone. But this one had a full fifty cavalrymen following him! In this entire team, he stood out.
This team actually stopped right in front of the Jia family’s colorful tent!
Xiangyun looked out curiously, and the next moment, she exclaimed, "Oh, it's the third brother!"
All of a sudden, all the women who were sitting upright stood up and looked out through the curtain. Sure enough, the young general wearing a black helmet and black armor riding on a war horse was none other than Jia Cong.
Baochai's beautiful eyes were fixed on the figure; not even the curtain could block her view. She suppressed the urge to rush out, but two lines of tears rolled down her face unconsciously!
He...is back.
Daiyu's eyes burst into light. At this moment, Jia Cong's image gave her a huge shock! Before this, she thought that a man like Baoyu was a good man. With the rise of Jia Cong, Baoyu's image gradually collapsed. Now she finally knows that not all men are like Baoyu, Jia Lian, and Jia Rong. This third brother is obviously different.
Thinking about the contents of the letters she had written to herself before, Daiyu couldn't help but blush suddenly.
Xiangyun shouted excitedly twice, but then Li Wan covered her mouth. However, her eyes were still staring outside without blinking, as if she could be a part of this mighty team.
The three sisters were all happy, especially Yingchun, who also shed tears. Her third brother had finally returned, and returned in such a glorious manner.
Wang Xifeng's eyes opened wide. Normally, the most impressive thing she did was to help suppress petitions through the clerks in the yamen. But now, seeing such an armored army that was like a black torrent was beyond her imagination.
There was also great joy in the other colorful tents of the Jia family!
When Grandmother Jia looked at her grandson riding on the tall horse, it was as if she was seeing the Duke when he was still alive, just as majestic!
Jia She and Jia Zhen were both shocked. Was this really the sullen Jia Cong from before?
Jia Zheng was so happy that he almost pulled his beard off. With such a nephew, how could he not stand up straight? He looked at Baoyu beside him and frowned.
Baoyu looked depressed at the moment. According to him, men are made of mud and smell the most. Officials are traitors and greedy people in his eyes, and economic career is nonsense. And now these people outside have obviously taken all of them! How can these stinky men be as comfortable as kissing with sisters?
He had been living a very hard life in the past two months! He had to go to the clan school every day, and was tested on his knowledge by Jia Zheng every now and then.
He finally had some time to visit his sisters, but few of them paid any attention to him, let alone playing around like they did before. All the sisters were busy decorating the Chenwu Academy, so how could they have the energy to pay attention to him?
Fortunately, Qin Zhong in the school was on good terms with him, which became his only motivation.
Today was the day he saw the light of day again. He had thought of taking the opportunity to get close to his sisters and have some fun, but he never expected that he would be detained by .
"You rebellious son, look at how majestic Congge is, and then look at what you look like!" Comparing the two, Jia Zheng wanted to strangle his son to death directly to save himself from being an eyesore.
When Jia Cong heard the voice from the colorful tent nearby, he immediately turned around to look. Although he couldn't see clearly through the curtain, he knew that it must be a group of sisters.
Although it was inconvenient to speak, he immediately bowed!
"Third brother must have seen me!" Xiangyun said in a low voice. Daiyu raised her eyebrows slightly and Baochai smiled. It was obvious that everyone had their own understanding.
In a colorful tent nearby where the maids were, Xiao Que'er also jumped for joy. If Qingwen and Xiangling hadn't been holding her back, she would have rushed out.
The other maids in the colorful tent looked at Qingwen and the other two with envy. Now that Jia Cong, the master, had been awarded a title for his military merits, the maids in the room naturally rose in status as well.
Many maids also had their thoughts. With Jia Cong's status upgraded, the treatment in the mansion was naturally very different. In fact, Qingwen was the only proper maid in Jia Cong's room.
Although Xiao Que'er was the head maid, she was still young after all, and Xiangling was sent by the Xue family. Apart from them, there were only two second-class maids, Zhuan'er and Zhui'er.
In other words, Jia Cong's room must have at least one or two regular maids, as well as five or six second-class maids.
Nowadays, Chenwuyuan is obviously the best place to go. The master is kind to the servants and the treatment is not bad. If the master takes a fancy to me and I become his concubine in the future, it will be a pleasant surprise.
Just when everyone had different expressions, the generals in front of Jia Cong had already been .
"First-class scholar Jia Cong, come forward and listen to your title!"
"I obey your command!"
Jia Cong bowed and dismounted from his horse. Almost at the same time, the fifty knights behind him also dismounted!
Wang Xifeng, who was already looking eager, felt her whole body go limp. She tightly grasped Li Wan beside her. The majesty of being in the room with eight people following her was a little too much for her to bear!
Afterwards, Jia Cong strode forward and left everyone's sight. However, after just a moment, he heard a voice coming from the front!
"…Jia Cong, the first-class son, is promoted to the second-class earl. I decree this…"
