Chapter 784: High-profile, marry someone like Prince Xiao

Lin Chujiu returned to the capital one day later than Xiao Tianyao. Because she wanted to avoid being greeted by all the officials and enter the city in a low-key manner. After all, she left the capital secretly at the beginning, and even though she made a little contribution on the battlefield, she was embarrassed to come back with a high profile, but… …

She wanted to keep a low profile, but Xiao Tianyao didn’t allow her.

There was no crown prince to welcome her personally, no forbidden army to clear the way, and no one from the imperial court arranged for anyone to welcome her. But the news that Lin Chujiu was going to enter the capital spread throughout in the shortest possible time, attracting countless people to watch.

The cause of such a big commotion was all because Prince Xiao will personally welcome her!

That’s right, Xiao Tianyao, the god of war in the hearts of the Eastern Country people, has never greeted others. Even when the emperor came to Xiao Wangfu in person, he never came out to greet him in person. However, he personally waited for Lin Chujiu to enter the capital at the city’s gate.

From the opening of the city gate until noon, he waited for two full hours, but there was no sign of impatience.

“The rumors are true, Prince Xiao values his princess very much.”

“It’s a good thing that Prince Xiao and his wife are loving each other.”

“Prince Xiao will come to meet Princess Xiao in person, not just because she values her, but because Princess Xiao deserves it. I heard that Princess Xiao has made great contributions on the battlefield. Without Princess Xiao, our country may not be able to win this battle.”

“I also heard that the emperor wants to postpone the celebration banquet because of Princess Xiao’s great achievements. It can be seen that Princess Xiao has done a great thing.”

“I’ve heard this news before. I thought it was an exaggeration. Now that Prince Xiao came to pick up Princess Xiao in person, I believe it.”

“Princess Xiao is not inferior to men. Only a woman like Princess Xiao is worthy of Prince Xiao.”

“If you are a lady, when you marry someone, you should marry someone like Prince Xiao. And if you are a man, when you marry, you should marry someone like Princess Xiao.”

*

Rumors mean that no matter what the truth was if someone says it and someone believes it, it will be done.

Obviously, Xiao Tianyao didn’t say anything the emperor was forced to postpone the celebration banquet by Xiao Tianyao, but everyone didn’t know it, so naturally, they said whatever they thought was reasonable, but… …

Things in this world neither have to be reasonable nor true.

Truth and reasonableness don’t have to coexist. What was true may not be reasonable, and what was reasonable is not necessarily true.

However, these were not important. At least for Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu, what the people in the capital say or think, cannot affect their lives.

*Da da da…* Lin Chujiu was sitting in a carriage, under the protection of the Jinwuwei Army, and drove towards the city gate unhurriedly. When someone saw the carriage with the logo of Xiao Wangfu in the distance, he immediately avoided it and let it pass.

“It’s Princess Xiao’s carriage, it’s Princess Xiao’s carriage. Princess Xiao has entered the city.” The passers-by knelt aside and didn’t forget to remind the people in front loudly.

The Jinwuwei Army and Lin Chujiu who was sitting in the carriage were used to this.

Not to mention in this society with strict class, where everyone was not equal, with Lin Chujiu’s status, ordinary people have to avoid her when they see her. However, Lin Chujiu was close enough to the group of pedestrians but didn’t clear people or block roads in advance.

The carriage continued to move forward, and as they walked, Lin Chujiu and the Jinwuwei Army felt that something was wrong.

Why were these people so excited when they say “It’s Princess Xiao’s carriage, Princess Xiao has entered the city”?

“Go, find out, what happened.” This was the capital, a place full of yin and yang humans. Based on the principle of being cautious, Lin Chujiu felt that she needed to know the reason.

“Yes.” The Jinwuwei soldier also felt that something was wrong and hurriedly dismounted to find a passerby to ask. But before the passer-by could answer, he saw Prince Xiao riding his horse towards the outside of the city gate under the protection of the Jinwuwei Army, which seemed to be heading towards them.

“Wangye?” The Jinwuwei soldier was stunned for a moment, unable to understand why Prince Xiao appeared at the city gate at this time.

“It’s Prince Xiao. Prince Xiao is here to pick up Princess Xiao.” When passers-by saw Xiao Tianyao coming out, they were so excited that they knelt with a plop, regardless of whether Xiao Tianyao could hear them or not. They greeted him: “Prince Xiao may you live thousands of years!”

“Wangye came here to pick up wangfei at the city gate?” The Jinwuwei soldier who just recovered was stupid again!

Since when did their Princess become so…so proud that she would be welcomed by their Prince?

This, this is too, so… incredible!

It felt like it was not like their prince at all. As everyone knows, their prince was someone who wouldn’t even welcome or greets the emperor in person.

“Da da da…” When the Jinwuwei soldier was stunned, Xiao Tianyao had already arrived in front of him. The Jinwuwei soldier didn’t care to think much about it. He clasped his fists and saluted: “This subordinate sees wangye… ..”

Xiao Tianyao didn’t wait for his subordinate to finish speaking, he waved his hand to signal the other party to excuse him, then ignored everyone’s scrutiny. He walked straight to the carriage and got inside directly.

In the carriage, Lin Chujiu was hesitating whether to come out to salute, when she saw Xiao Tianyao get into the carriage, she was startled immediately, “Wang, wangye!”

“Benwang’s title is Xiao, not a prince.” Xiao Tianyao was very cold, with a hint of disgust in his tone.

“Go to the city!” After getting on the carriage, he didn’t care about Lin Chujiu, and sat down directly on the main seat, pushing Lin Chujiu aside.

The Jinwuwei Army outside the carriage was stunned again, but they were more puzzled.

Was their prince come here to pick up their princess?

Why didn’t he say a word when he came to pick up the person, and just got into the carriage?

If they hadn’t seen their prince coming out of the city, they would all have suspected that their prince happened to meet the carriage of their princess and didn’t want to ride a horse, so he hitched a ride back to the city with her.

“Don’t be complacent, benwang didn’t come to pick you up on purpose!” The Jinwuwei Army guessed right, as soon as the carriage moved, Xiao Tianyao poured cold water on Lin Chujiu.

Lin Chujiu was a little elated at first, but immediately froze when she heard this. In line with the principle of not losing the battle, she sarcastically went back: “I never thought about it, I knew you picked me up on purpose.”

“Well, it’s good you know.” Xiao Tianyao nodded, with a look of “I am very pleased”.

Lin Chujiu glared at him. For some reason… she had the urge to bite people!

This man deserves a beating.

But thinking of Xiao Tianyao’s force value, Lin Chujiu silently set it aside. The corner of her lips twitched stiffly and let out a smirk.

Xiao Tianyao raised his eyes, just in time to see Lin Chujiu’s stupid look who dared not speak out but could only smirk. The corners of his lips curved into a smile unconsciously and his smile was very—alluring!

It was just a pity, Lin Chujiu didn’t see it.

With the crest of Xiao Wangfu and Prince Xiao’s presence, the officers and soldiers guarding the city gate didn’t dare to ask the carriage to stop for inspection. The carriage didn’t stop all the way and drove directly into Xiao Wangfu.

In Xiao Wangfu, Housekeeper Cao, Zhenzhu, and Manao had already been waiting by the side. As soon as the carriage stopped, they stepped forward in an orderly manner to salute Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu.

Of course, Housekeeper Cao and Zhenzhu didn’t dare to get too close, especially Manao and Agate, who were far away from each other.

The servants did not dare to get close, so naturally, no one helped Lin Chujiu get off the carriage, and Lin Chujiu was also ready to get off the carriage by herself, but… …
