Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The reward came faster than expected. Ming Zhiyan sent to deliver the gift had exhausted three horses to rush to the Capital, after the Emperor had seen it, he discussed with all the ministers for a day and decided on the reward for Jian Qingqing, after that, the person who delivered the reward also rushed to Shifeng County.
Therefore, on the day of Jian Qingqing’s birthday at the end of October, a group of people appeared in Shifeng County in high spirits. They first went to the county office.
The leading general, Shi Ancheng, stepped down from his horse and greeted Ming Zhiyan, “Crown Prince Ming.”
Ming Zhiyan had already been waiting here, so he replied, “Left Guard General. ”
He was a little surprised. He did not expect that the person who sent the reward this time was the leader of the imperial guards, the Left Guard General. The leader of the imperial guards usually specialized in protecting the safety of the Emperor and did not leave the Capital easily, it seemed that the reward this time was bigger than he had imagined.
Looking at the generals who followed behind him, there were two eunuch eunuchs among them. The group of people were dressed lightly and did not bring anything. It was impossible to tell what the reward the Emperor was going to give them.
Ming Zhiyan had suppressed the emotions in his heart, he asked, “Left Guard
General, what do you want to do now?”
Left Guard General looked at the travel-worn crowd behind him and said,
“Let’s go wash up first and then go see Miss Jian. Where is she now?” Ming Zhiyan had ordered someone to prepare something for them, he said,
“She’s at home.”
Because it was Jian Qingqing’s birthday today, the whole family was at home in the county town. Ming Zhiyan was going to go, he suddenly received the news that the Emperor’s people were coming, so he stayed.
Left Guard General did not know that it was Jian Qingqing’s birthday today. He looked at the sky and saw that it was almost noon. He wanted to meet the legendary Miss Jian before noon. Thus, he gave an order, “Hurry up! After you’re done packing, we’ll leave!”
“Yes!”
After they all entered the county office, someone not far away quietly poked his head out to take a look before retreating.
At the corner of the street, there were more than ten teenagers standing there.
“How is it? Did you see anything?”
That person shook his head. “They all went in. I don’t know what they’re doing.”
“Then let’s wait and see.”
They were all at the age of idleness. They did not do anything every day. They just wandered around the street with their friends. Just now, when they were playing on the street, they saw a group of people riding their horses and speeding past the street in an awe-inspiring manner, they had never seen these people before. They looked at each other as if they had found something interesting. The few of them followed quietly and only then did they realize that they had entered the county office.
However, they had a natural fear of the county office, so they did not dare to follow and look. They could only hide in a corner and watch quietly.
They had not come to a conclusion yet, so they did not want to give up at all.
Because they were anxious to complete the emperor’s mission, they all washed up very quickly. In less than fifteen minutes, they were all packed up.
Everyone changed into a very formal outfit. After washing up, everyone was in high spirits and looked extraordinary.
Ming Zhiyan asked expressionlessly, “Left Guard General, I Want to know what His Majesty’s plan is.”
Left Guard General was a middle-aged man with a full beard. He had watched Ming Zhiyan grow up. He laughed and said, “Crown Prince Ming, don’t worry.
His Majesty values Miss Jian more than you think. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have sent me..”
