Good news came from the frontier, and before the winter was over, the news of the victory of the war came.
The people of the capital were overjoyed, and the emperor was even more delighted, and in the courtroom, he kept saying that he would reward him. And the Ning Mansion was even more happy. Before the officers and men of the border had set off, she was already busy preparing for Ning Lang's return home.
It took a lot of time on the way from the border to the capital and the return of the soldiers.
On the day the soldiers returned, the people greeted him. General Lu rode on a horse, at the forefront of the team, followed by orderly soldiers. In this battle, both Yang Zhen and Ning Lang made great contributions, as did General Lu. The three of them rode on their horses and were all excited. Only Yang Zhen calmed down and watched the two keep turning around and facing the people on both sides. wave.
Ning Nuan heard that they were back, so she rushed to Ning's house early. Chu Fei went to Zaochao early in the morning, and before going out, he told her that he would go with Ning Yanting in the future, so he didn't have to wait for him, so Ning Nuan just went by himself in the carriage.
When they arrived at Ning's house, Jiang Yunlan happily went in and out. Even Ning Yanhai's family came, but they all hid in the old lady's yard obediently. , happy for Ning Lang.
"A Nuan, you're here." Jiang Yunlan said, "A Nuan, sit beside you, don't move, my mother has no shortage of people to call you, you don't need to be tired."
Even though she said that, Ning Nuan still walked over to help her.
"Mother has been waiting for so long, but my brother is finally back. When my brother comes back this time, he must have brought the Jiang family's old clan to the capital. How does Mom plan to know the Jiang clan's old clan?"
Jiang Yunlan said: "I have already planned on this matter. I still have a lot of idle houses in the capital, which can hold a lot of people. It's just that I haven't thought about their plans, I still have to When they come, I will ask them again. Uncle Wu sent me a letter earlier, and there are more people left in the Jiang family than I thought. If there are only a few, I will give them to them in the capital. Looking for a living, it happens that I also need a lot of people, but now there are so many people, I would like to ask them about their plans."
For so many years, the old Jiang family has developed on its own. After so many years of development, it naturally has its own plans. Now that the Jiang family is long gone, these people still think of her as the master, and Jiang Yunlan is also very moved, but she can't really treat these people as servants. Look at their own plans.
Ning Nuan said, "My lord told me last night that if the Jiang family members are willing to stay and help my brother, it would be very good. The Jiang family was found by my brother, and they are willing to follow my brother. They have already admitted my brother in their hearts. Mother, why don't you ask your brother for his opinion."
Jiang Yunlan was stunned for a moment, then replied, "I'll ask him again when Lang'er comes back."
The two just revealed the matter and did not mention it.
The soldiers must enter the palace and face the saint, and after the award, they can go home after the next court. Before Ning Lang came back, the emperor's rewards came first. Box after box of rewards were brought in. Jiang Yunlan stood in the front hall and paced back and forth anxiously. After waiting for a long time, he finally heard the rumor. to a familiar voice.
"mother!"
Jiang Yunlan's eyes lit up and went out immediately.
Ning Lang still had the imperial edict in his hand, and ran towards her as soon as he entered the door: "Mother! I'm back! Mother! I'm even promoted!"
"It's good to come back, it's good to come back." Jiang Yunlan nodded again and again, and when Ning Lang was in front of her, her expression changed, and she suddenly reached out and grabbed his ear. "You didn't say a word, just ran away. Did you put me and your father in your eyes? You came when you said it, and left when you said it. Do you still have me and your father in your heart?"
Ning Lang groaned and was caught in the face, and immediately begged for mercy: "Mother, mother, give me a face, mother, everyone else is watching."
Only then did Jiang Yunlan notice the person walking in behind him.
Yang Zhen coughed, Zhuang Ruo didn't see anything, and turned his head away. The few people behind them had red eyes and tears in their eyes. Uncle Wu, who was the leader, had gray hair. He was heroic and fierce when he killed the enemy on the battlefield. Now that Du Du was in front of Jiang Yunlan, his hands were shaking.
Jiang Yunlan was stunned for a moment, and quickly released her hand.
"Uncle Wu?"
"Yes... it's the old slave, miss, the old slave has finally found you." Uncle Wu lowered his head and wiped away tears, "Since the troubles broke out in the Jiang family, the miss has disappeared, and we don't dare to look for the miss. , Miss is also cruel, and she hasn't contacted us for so many years."
Jiang Yunlan opened her mouth, her throat seemed to be blocked by something, and she was speechless for a while.
Ning Lang rubbed his ears and came out to smooth things out: "It's a good day, I've been promoted. Mother, look at this, imperial decree! This is the first time I have received imperial decrees, you can quickly take them and put them in the ancestral hall. Let's take a look at the ancestors of the Ning family, what is this called... Oh! Honor the ancestors!"
As soon as he was interrupted, Jiang Yunlan's heart disappeared at all.
Uncle Wu looked at Ning Nuan on the side again: "Is this the little miss?"
Ning Lang replied, "Yes, this is my sister. Look, have I always been exactly the same as you said?"
Uncle Wu and the others nodded again and again.
Ning Nuan smiled and said hello, then looked at Ning Lang, wondering how he was talking about himself. It's just that Ning Lang didn't catch her sight, so he handed the imperial edict in his hand to Jiang Yunlan, and then handed over Yang Zhen's imperial edict, and then quickly dragged Yang Zhen into the house.
"Mother, I'm starving to death. I haven't eaten for most of the day."
Jiang Yunlan responded angrily, turned her head and asked the servants to put away the imperial decree, and then followed in.
Coincidentally, Ning Yanting and Chu Fei also came back, and they sat down after meeting with the Jiang family's former department.
During the banquet, Ning Lang really boasted about his "heroic" demeanor in killing the enemy on the battlefield. Several people in the capital listened very seriously. Only Chu Fei and the few people who went to the battlefield bowed their heads and thought they were nothing. I didn't hear it, but I echoed Ning Lang from time to time, making Ning Lang full of confidence.
"Speaking of which, I've been away from the capital for so long, and I haven't seen Zhu Hanshan since I came back." Ning Lang turned back and said to the Jiang family's former minister, "He's the one I've always mentioned to you, my friend from Lianzhong Sanyuan."
Everyone in the Jiang family nodded.
Ning Lang turned his head and asked again, "How is Zhu Hanshan doing recently?"
"Okay, you sneaked into the battlefield, and Zhu Hanshan didn't even say anything, but he was startled, and he didn't know what to say about you when he looked back."
Ning Lang was instantly proud: "But now that I have been promoted, his official position may not necessarily be as big as mine."
Jiang Yunlan smiled: "Zhu Hanshan is also promoted, do you think it is only you who is promoted?"
Ning Lang's complexion suddenly changed, and the meat in his hand suddenly fell into the bowl. After a long time, he recovered and calmly said: "I almost forgot, I wish Hanshan is not a rude person and will not fight with me. ."
He was frightened in the barracks.
Although he is from Yang Zhen, he is guarded by the old Jiang family behind him, and his good brother is the son of General Lu. It's just that the barracks are filled with men with strong vigor, and there is friction when they disagree with each other. When they move their hands, Ning Lang is the one who suffers every time.
After the meal was over and the joy was over, everyone talked about the plans of the old Jiang family.
After asking them, everyone in the Jiang family glanced at each other, but Uncle Wu came out and said, "If the young lady and the uncle don't dislike it, we want to stay in the capital and continue to serve the young lady."
"You shouldn't be like this." Jiang Yunlan said, "The Jiang family has long since disappeared. Over the years, you have also been freelancers. I am no longer your master. Why do you serve me? It's not worth it."
"Miss, don't say that." Uncle Wu panicked: "This old slave's life was saved by the master. If there is no master, we people don't know where we are. When the master was injured, we can't do anything about it. , Over the years, the young lady has been left alone, and the young lady has no idea how much she has suffered. The old slave is already very sorry to the master. The young lady does not know, I have been outside the gate all these years, because I am worried about the enemy of the Jiang family. We will go to the capital to find the young lady, but that person is already dead, and we have nothing to worry about, even if we don’t meet the young master, we will come to find the young lady.”
"Dead?" Jiang Yunlan couldn't help but be surprised.
Uncle Wu nodded: "Before we met the young master, we finally found the murderer who killed several members of the Jiang family. We have already avenged the master. We have already spoken to the master at the master's grave. On the way back to Shu, we just happened to meet the young master. Miss, it is God who wants us to continue to be loyal to you, miss!"
Jiang Yunlan was speechless for a while.
Ning Lang has heard this many times these days, so he nodded in agreement: "Mother, don't persuade me, I have already said what I should persuade, and I'll be dry. But these people still don't change their minds, you still agree, and then we think about how to arrange them."
Uncle Wu hurriedly said: "This matter does not bother the young lady and the young master. We have accumulated a lot of things. Before returning to the capital, we have already asked someone to buy a property in the capital, and now we can live directly."
Everyone behind him nodded.
Jiang Yunlan: "..."
It turned out that she had already made all the plans, and she did not even give her a chance to hesitate.
Come to think of it, even if she doesn't agree, Uncle Wu will take someone to live in the capital directly, and grind her down until she agrees.
What else can Jiang Yunlan say? Only nodded in agreement.
Chu Fei watched the whole process beside him, looked up, his eyes swept across the faces of everyone in the Jiang family's old clan, and seeing everyone's joy on their faces, he touched his chin and suddenly said, "You have nothing to do. , why don't you come and do things for this king?"
