The Right General had already arranged many people to receive the Crown Prince, but General Huangpu and Wu Leng both waited in the tent rather than going out. They were soldiers and they understood what was happening. The reason why Lord Huai was summoned back and the Crown Prince was here - they understood it.


    The reason why the soldiers were here was all because they cared about the civilians and the country, but they just could not stand in line with the King and the Crown Prince.


    Yet they had no right to say no in front of the King, and all they could do was show what they expected.


    When Lord Huai arrived here, they had no weing ceremony. It was just General Huangpu who took him into the city with a few soldiers, but the Crown Prince''s arrival required so many soldiers to be present.


    It was the border, not the capital!


    General Huangpu and Wu Leng were seated in the tent, and looked very angry, but they did not dare to say anything. They were going to follow Lady Chaoyan''s words - they were not going to put themselves into trouble just because they wanted to vent their anger.


    Zhou Huaijin looked outside.


    It was time.


    He put down the teacup, got up and looked at the two men in front of him. He said calmly, "Let''s get up. The Crown Prince should be here anytime soon. That is the etiquette and we have to follow it."


    "…"


    "It is a crucial time, and the civilians at Xinzhou and Ning County need you all. You better not forget about what is happening because of some minor things."


    "…"


    "Xinzhou is still under charge of the King," Zhou Huaijin said emotionally.


    Having heard that Gu Chaoyan got up too.


    The couple were ready to leave the tent.


    General Huangpu and Wu Leng followed behind as they started to walk outside.


    It was very quiet here.


    There were no soldiers, nor anyone who was practicing. They were queuing up to greet the Crown Prince.


    When Zhou Huaijin and the others arrived, the soldiers all looked at them.


    Zhou Huaijin and Gu Chaoyan nodded and waited at the gate.


    Right General was here and they did not look frightened.


    Far in the distance… the Crown Prince was approaching with the army.


    The Crown Prince only had 5,000 soldiers with him.


    Since no casualties happened at the battles against the North Qi Land, the King believed that the soldiers here at Xinzhou should be enough. So he had 5,000 soldiers arranged to apany the Crown Prince, making sure that they could keep the Crown Prince safe.


    The Crown Prince was not riding a horse.


    He and the Crown Prince Consort were in a very luxurious wagon, so they were dyed by a day


    Zhou Huaijin and Gu Chaoyan watched the wagoning towards them.


    When the wagon was pulled to a stop, Zhou Huailing got out of the wagon with a brocade robe, and then helped Gu Ruxue out too.


    Gu Ruxue was wearing a brocade dress with engraved gold thread buttons and peony patterns, as well as a fox fur cape. The hair essories on her head and the makeup on her face were all extremely delicate. She raised her head slightly, as if proudly like a peacock walking towards Xinzhou. Looking at the two rows of weing soldiers that were so ferocious, they were very satisfied.
