“Report of victory! Eight hundred miles urgent dispatch!”
On the seemingly winding official road, the ancient trees under the scorching sun were vibrant and lush. The pounding of hooves startled flocks of birds into flight on both sides of the road, the dust tumbling along the way.
A cavalry at top speed, an eight hundred mile urgent dispatch, rushed straight into Da Yan country’s forbidden palace, the Imperial City’s Jin Luan Hall.
“Announce! Quickly announce!” Da Yan country’s Emperor Zhu Yin Xi sat on top the dragon throne in Jin Luan Hall, waiting with anticipation for this moment of imperial elation.
Eunuch Xiao Lizi took the battle report, the lotus fingers cleverly turned over, a ringing voice read aloud.
“….our army after 30 days of bloody battle, finally captured ten cities, driving out the Liao dogs out of our Da Yan’s northwest border, returning in victory! You wang, the ninth lord, once again attained great merit, single-handedly beheading Liao General Tuoba Yi…Only, as our army returned to court, Commander in Chief General Linghu was attacked on the way and heavily injured…”
Emperor Zhu Yin Xi, hearing this, stood up from dragon throne. Gesturing at the ministers, with imperial might, declaring: “Hand down zhen’s decree! Civil and military officials follow zhen. Arrange to go out to Nantian City Gates! Zhen wants to go out of the city to welcome our heroic soldiers’ triumphant return, to show the infinite imperial graciousness!”
Nantian City Gates were opened. Da Yan country’s Emperor Zhu Yin Xi, for the first time as Emperor, brought along civil and military officials out of the city gates to welcome the victorious return of the soldiers.
The triumphant returning soldiers were arranged to camp outside the city. Only a small number of soldiers could follow the renowned “God of War You wang” ninth lord to enter the city to meet His Majesty.
However, the one with impressive military exploits, the one who always had the title of “Da Yan country’s unbeaten Divine General,” the legendary Linghu General, Linghu Zhao Ye, was lying on a stretcher to be carried back.
This time following Linghu General together in battling against the Liao, besides “God of War You wang” famously known as the ninth lord Zhu You Hong, there was also the one with “Virtuous Reputation Outside,” sixth lord Qi wang, Zhu You Chen.
Ninth lord Zhu You Hong was already 21 and has not yet been arranged marriage.
But sixth lord Zhu You Chen has been arranged marriage since young. His fiancé was Linghu General’s legitimate daughter, the eldest young miss, Linghu Shui Yue.
Yet sixth lord Zhu You Chen was already twenty-three but has not yet married in Linghu Shui Yue. Why was this?
This had to start from the day Linghu Shui Yue was born. Seventeen years ago, Linghu General’s first wife Madame Nalan Qing gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix, the son was named Linghu Huo R, the daughter was Linghu Shui Yue.
Giving birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix was a big happy event! However, when the twins were five years old, while Linghu General was fighting at war outside, his wife Nalan Qing took their son and daughter to attend a temple banquet. Upon their return, they were ravaged by an unprecedented catastrophe on the way.
In this catastrophe, not only did Linghu General’s first wife Nalan Qing passed away, Linghu eldest young master Linghu Shui Ri was seriously injured. From then on, he cannot practice martial arts. He can only cultivate literary pursuits.
Eldest young miss Linhu Shui Yue was even worse! From then on, she became an idiot and became mad! Even till today, Linghu Shui Yue who was already sixteen years old, she was still a crazy stupid girl!
This was why Qi wang sixth lord Zhu You Chen was already twenty-three, already took in two side consorts, but even now is not willing to marry Linghu Shui Yue.
This time, the one in command was still General Linghhu. He, in the thirty days of bloody battle with the enemy army, did not receive the slightest damage but was seriously injured in the triumphant return back. At this time, he was carried back.
The Imperial Majesty himself came to welcome! It can be seen how important this battle was. Liao army has always been harassing the northern borders of Da Yan, making Da Yan country’s Emperor keep himself awake up all night with worry. Defeating the Liao army, this merit was not a trivial matter!
