Chapter 826: Move to the Capital

After receiving permission, Hu Yu rubbed her head against Lin Jie. “Jie, you’re the best. What a good child.”
Lin Jie smiled and led General Black out.
General Black did not grow any taller. Lin Jie knew that it was not that General Black could not grow up, but in this world, he could only be so big.
General Black liked to be free and run around the mountains.
Hu Yu was different. She liked to lie in Lin Jie’s arms or on the grass, waiting for Lin Jie to find wild fruits for her to eat.
In autumn, there were many wild fruits in the mountains. They were sour and sweet, and Hu Yu liked to eat them.
When it began to darken, Lin Jie carried Hu Yu and led General Black back.
Liu Dalang and Liu Erlang had already decided to go to the capital to take posts.
Therefore, it was inevitable that the entire family would move to the capital.
Chu Yan and Liu Sanniang received a message from the secret guard sent by Xia Hongming. The Yan army had sent an envoy to the capital to negotiate and sign an alliance with the Xia Dynasty. If the agreement was reached, there would be no war for 50 years.
The Jin Dynasty had also sent envoys to the capital. It was said that both dynasties brought princesses, hoping to use marriage to exchange for peace.
Only after the envoys of the Yan and Jin dynasties entered the capital did they know the details of the peace agreement.
Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan were going to return to the capital.
Liu Dalang and Liu Erlang also wanted to enter the capital, so they moved their entire family to the capital. Mr. Chu also decided to follow Chu Yan into the capital under Madam Li’s instigation.
Mr. Chu thought that Chu Yan would object, but Chu Yan agreed readily.
At the beginning of August.
The Chu family and the Liu family settled down in the capital.
Chu Yan was conferred the title of the Mighty General and had a general’s mansion. Madam Li and Mr. Chu stayed in the side courtyard of the general’s mansion.
Liu Sanniang also had a mansion. She let the Liu family live there.
The two mansions were both very big.
Liu Sanniang handed the title deed to her parents. “Mother, if you don’t take it, I’ll be sad.”
With her saying that, Madam Wei and Mr. Liu couldn’t refuse.
Liu Sanniang was already the State Minister of the Xia Dynasty. The legend that she was the chosen one and was born to eliminate evil had long spread. She would go wherever there was evil.
As for Chu Yan, he was the god of war in the hearts of the people.
His achievements spread throughout the streets and alleys. Even three-year-olds knew that the Xia Dynasty was protected by a Mighty General.
Xia Hongming valued Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan very much, so after they settled down, he immediately invited Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan into the palace.
Xia Bingguang’s face was rosy. One could tell that he was in high spirits. He asked the palace servant to fill Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan’s glasses and toasted them. “Miss Liu, General Chu, let me toast you.”
After drinking the wine, Xia Bingguang got down to business. “A spy came to report that the Yan Dynasty’s and Jin Dynasty’s envoys have been in the Xia Dynasty’s territory for more than a month. They will reach the capital in less than ten days. Miss Liu, they brought a psychic with them this time and said that they are here to seek peace. However, I feel a little uneasy, so 1 took the liberty to disturb the two of you.”
Liu Sanniang looked at Xia Bingguang indifferently and said, “Your Majesty, don’t worry.”
Xia Bingguang was relieved. “With Miss Liu around, I’m not afraid.”
Xia Bingguang was very glad that such a god had descended on his Xia Dynasty.
However, looking into Liu Sanniang’s eyes, he felt guilty for thinking like that. Liu Sanniang didn’t care where she descended. What she had to do was get rid of those evil sources.
What she wanted to protect was not the Xia Dynasty, but the living beings of the entire world. What she wanted to balance was the Yin and Yang in this world.
Xia Hongming smiled at Liu Sanniang. He had given Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan a big gift when they got married. He had always wanted to rope Liu Sanniang in, but later, his desire to rope her in turned into respect.
After the battle, his mentality had changed even more.
The position of emperor did not seem to be that important to him anymore.
It was the same for Xia Hongyuan. After the war, the two of them met alone. Xia Hongyuan said bluntly that he wanted to travel around. He no longer had the desire for the throne in his heart.
The scheming in the past seemed to be gone. In the palace, it was unprecedentedly harmonious.
Xia Hongming found it unbelievable because even he wanted to give up the throne.
After the banquet, Xia Hongming became even more determined to do it.
Xia Bingguang held his forehead. After getting drunk, he was a little dizzy. Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan ate silently, drank wine, and enjoyed the singing and dancing in the hall. Xia Bingguang understood what Xia Hongming was thinking at a glance. Xia Bingguang felt complicated. Since when did everyone become so uninterested in this throne?
Not to mention others, even he was affected. Xia Bingguang said what was on his mind, “After the three countries reach a peace agreement, I will abdicate. Hongming is outstanding. Miss Liu, please see an auspicious day so that I can make arrangements to step down.”
Xia Hongming was immediately awake. He was already thinking about leaving the capital to travel to the north. He quickly stood up and said, “Father, you can’t. You’re in good condition. I’m still young and can’t take on such a big responsibility..”
