Chapter 6443
In this way, the female thief did not appear again, and the situation in Kyoto was still tense, especially at night, when everyone closed their doors tightly and patrol soldiers could be seen everywhere.
In the blink of an eye, it was ten days later when King Yi and Zhao Xiang returned to Beijing.
Ping An has been looking forward to their return recently. When this day came, she immediately took Shui'er and the guards in the house to pick them up.
Meng Huo also received the emperor's order and went with several princes to greet the victorious general and soldiers outside the city.
King Yi and Zhao Xiang came back on horseback. When they arrived outside the city gate, they saw the prince and common people who picked them up.
Several princes immediately got off their horses and came to King Yi to salute him and say hello. King Yi asked them to get up.
Zhao Xiang had been craning his neck to find peace, but he was still a little disappointed when he didn't see her.
Just as he lowered his head and muttered, suddenly a group of girls rushed out, each holding a bouquet of flowers in their hands, and someone behind him held up a red cloth with white words on it.
"Welcome the soldiers to return in triumph! Bring glory to the country!"
Pingan stood among the girls. She looked particularly eye-catching in her red dress, with a lily wreath on her head.
The soldiers were stunned by this operation, but then they became excited.
The soldiers who went to the battlefield to kill the enemy all narrowly escaped death. It was considered good if those who went there could come back 80% of the time, so many of those soldiers lost their companions.
Shengli and them were very happy, but their hearts were still empty, as if they had lost something.
They never imagined that they would have such a special welcome ceremony when they came back.
Moreover, some of them also saw their family members.
"Present flowers to the soldiers who have contributed to our country!" Ping An gave the order, and the girls and the people behind them all ran towards the soldiers and handed the flowers in their hands to the soldiers.
Ping An gave the flowers to Zhao Xiang.
Zhao Xiang was so happy that he got off his horse and quickly took her hand and retracted it.
However, Ping An directly took his hand and frowned, "Where are your fingers!"
Zhao Xiang, "..."
He didn't want her to see it, who knew it was so easy to observe so carefully.
"I accidentally got hurt and one of my fingers was chopped off." Zhao Xiang looked at her and smiled stupidly.
Ping An took his hand and saw that he was missing a little finger on his right hand. She felt uncomfortable. Since the two of them cooperated, she had regarded him as her best friend and confidant, so when she learned that he was going to go on an expedition with the army, she would Worried about his safety, I would write out the Art of War to him, hoping that he would come back safely.
"It's nothing. My little finger is useless. If it's gone, it's gone. It won't affect my daily life." Zhao Xiang looked at her and quickly comforted her.
"Why accept Yihe? Why not just destroy the Yi Kingdom!" Ping An's eyes suddenly became sharp, and his eyes were directed towards the carriage not far away.
All the people sitting there were Yi people!
"Don't be impulsive. This is not up to us. Don't worry, I'm fine." Zhao Xiang said quickly.
But, no matter what he said, Ping An looked at the carriages of the Yi people and looked at them very unkindly. Meng Huo came over. He was jealous at first, but when he got closer and heard what the two said clearly, he couldn't eat anymore. .
He didn't expect that Zhao Xiang could work so hard and come back even though he was injured. Moreover, he still lost a little finger.
