Chapter 1536 Return to the Imperial City

On that day, Yun Zheng sent someone to deliver a letter to Dugu Ce.

After the autumn harvest, it’s time to close the net!

However, Yun Zheng was so far away that he didn't know which ones should be killed and which ones should be kept.

Look at Dugu Ce himself!

In addition, the imperial court also needs to send some people to conduct secret investigations.

This net may not catch all the fish, but at least it should catch most of the big fish.

In the next few days, Yun Zheng continued to be busy.

Emperor Wen continued to inspect various construction sites from morning till night.

A few days later, the envoys from Nanzhao and Yunan finally arrived in Xindu under the escort of officials and soldiers.

Emperor Wen received the two envoys at the government office in Guangling, and told them with a smile that he was planning to go to Linjiang to test Daqian's new weapons before returning to the imperial city, and asked the envoys of the two countries to accompany him.

Looking at Emperor Wen's appearance, Yun Zheng and his brothers couldn't help but secretly complain in their hearts.

It sounds like it’s true!

This old guy just loves to show off!

The next day, they set out for Linjiang.

Before setting off, Emperor Wen kept Yun Ting and ordered him to supervise the construction of the new capital.

A few days later, they arrived in Linjiang again.

As expected, the envoys of the two countries were stunned by the power of the naval guns. They were still in a daze until they left Linjiang.

After setting out from Linjiang, they walked for another twenty days before finally returning to the imperial city.

A group of officials went to the outside of the imperial city to greet them.

After several months, Yun Zheng finally saw his children again.

As soon as he approached, Yun Zheng saw Yun Cang and Yun Jin holding Xiao Jie'er and standing in front of the team.

The two of them, one on the left and one on the right, protected the little sister like bodyguards.

Yun Zheng looked at this scene in surprise.

After taking a walk outside, Xiao Jie can now walk?

But if you calculate the time, Xiao Jie is almost old enough to walk.

Yun Zheng was about to step forward, but Emperor Wen arrived in front of the three children before him.

"Can our Jie'er walk now?"

Emperor Wen squatted down and extended his hand to Yun Jie.

Yun Jie let out a chuckle, opened his arms, and staggered towards Emperor Wen.

Emperor Wen hugged Yun Jie and stroked his little head, "Jie'er, be good and call me Grandpa."

Shen Luoyan smiled gently, "Father, Jie'er still can't speak..."

"Oh, look at my memory, our Jie'er isn't even one year old yet!"

Emperor Wen chuckled and waved for Yun Cang and Yun Jin to come over.

Yun Cang and Yun Jin had been with Emperor Wen in the palace for a long time and had become familiar with them.

As soon as Emperor Wen waved his hand, the two children ran towards him happily.

Emperor Wen was like an old hen protecting her chicks. He held all three children in his arms and asked with a smile, "Cang'er, Jin'er, do you miss Grandpa?"

"miss you!"

The two children answered softly.

"Very good! If you think of Grandpa Emperor, you will be rewarded!"

Emperor Wen was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling, "Mu Shun, bring it here!"

Mu Shun took the order, quickly handed over a box, and squatted beside Emperor Wen to open it.

As the box was opened, Yun Zheng discovered that it contained candied haws.

Yun Zheng was surprised.

They followed Emperor Wen all the way.

When did he ask someone to buy the candied haws?

Emperor Wen took out three strings of candied haws from the box with a smile, "Here, this is for Cang'er, this is for Jin'er, and this is for Jie'er..."

Emperor Wen handed the candied haws to the three children one by one, then turned back to look at the second and fifth children, "I have also prepared candied haws for your children, you can take them back to your children later."

"Thank you, Father!"

The two of them bowed quickly to express their gratitude.

To be honest, they were surprised that Emperor Wen would think of preparing candied haws for their children.

As for having Emperor Wen personally deliver it to their children, they didn't dare to hope for that.

They originally thought that their own children had no chance of getting it!

Although they also understood that Emperor Wen would definitely favor Yun Zheng's three children, and they did not expect Emperor Wen to treat them equally, they would still feel a little disappointed if their children did not get a share of the candied haws.

A string of candied haws may seem worthless, but it can actually mean a lot.

"OK OK."

Emperor Wen stood up and said, "Let's go back to the palace first!"

After Emperor Wen spoke, everyone set out again and headed for the palace.

And Yun Zheng finally had time to hug his child.

"When did Jie'er learn to walk?"

Yun Zheng held the youngest Yun Jie and asked Shen Luoyan.

Shen Luoyan smiled and said, "Just a few days ago, I was playing in the yard and suddenly I could walk. But now I can only walk with difficulty. If I walk a little faster, I will fall over."

Yun Zheng was about to speak when Yun Jie slapped him in the face with the candied haws in his hand.

Yun Zheng had candy all over his face, but he didn't care at all and turned to look at Yun Cang and Yun Jin.

However, the two little guys were enjoying their candied haws and had no time to pay attention to him at all.

Seeing this, Yun Zheng couldn't help but curse these two heartless people in his heart.

Everyone chatted and laughed all the way and finally returned to the palace.

"Are you thinking of slacking off once you return to the Imperial City?"

As soon as he entered the palace, Emperor Wen asked Yun Zheng with a smile.

“Isn’t this lazy?”

Yun Zheng grinned, "Father, look, I have been fighting wars and inspecting the new capital in the past few months, and I have arranged so many things. It's not too much for me to take a break for a while, right?"

"Then you might not be able to rest."

Emperor Wen showed a shrewd smile, "You were the one who brought up the issue of the special examination! Now that the autumn examination is approaching, shouldn't you take charge of it? In addition, you will also preside over the subsequent palace examinations!"

"no……"

Yun Zheng was speechless.

The machine also needs to be repaired, right?

Can't you take a break?

"Ok, deal."

Emperor Wen did not give Yun Zheng a chance to shirk his responsibility. "I am exhausted after all this trouble! I want to live longer and need to rest for a while. If it is nothing serious, then you are bothering me!"

As he spoke, Emperor Wen rubbed his old waist and left with the help of Mu Shun.

"..."

Yun Zheng looked at Emperor Wen's back with a dark face.

Why did you complain of being tired when we went to inspect Xindu?

Are you complaining of being tired now that you've returned to the imperial city?

It's obvious that he wants to be a hands-off boss!

Damn it!

I wanted to pass the blame to this old guy!

As a result, this old guy actually took the initiative!

It's so fucking depressing!

Fortunately, there are still two prime ministers, Tang Shu and Tuohuan.

Let these two take care of things!
