The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

Cheng Chumo was somewhat reluctant to go back.

In his own opinion, Songzhou has just been recaptured, and there will definitely be many battles to fight in the future.

If I go back at this time, a lot of credit will slip away from my hands.

It's really a pity.

But he didn't feel comfortable letting Zhao Chen return to Chang'an alone, so Cheng Chumo didn't say anything else.

As for Qin Huaiyu, this guy rushed into Songzhou City first and made great achievements. After returning, he will definitely be better than Cheng Chumo.

Niu Jinda was a little reluctant to give up.

But he also knew that Zhao Chen's stage would not be in the military.

The court in Chang'an was where Zhao Chen dared to stand.

There wasn't much to give to Zhao Chen. He just waved his hand and Niu Jinda said goodbye to Zhao Chen. .??.

The three of them left Songzhou, mounted their horses, and rushed to Chang'an City, where they had been away for two months.

…

"Zhao Da, you should get married this time when you go back. Otherwise, if you continue like this, my sister-in-law will die of worry."

Beside the bonfire, Cheng Chumo asked Zhao Chen with a smile.

Under the strong bonfire, the fragrant smell of barbecue filled both sides of the official road.

"I will definitely get the wedding done when I go back this time. When the time comes, Cheng Er and I will bring the other noble children from Chang'an City to make it a lively affair for you." Qin Huaiyu also smiled.

This expedition to Songzhou was a success, and his qualifications will look much better in the future.

Of course, Qin Huaiyu also knew that if it were not for Zhao Chen's help, he would not be able to say that he had made meritorious service now.

I still don’t know if I will be able to return to Chang’an.

"Of course it should be." Zhao Chen smiled and nodded.

I thought of Li Ruoshuang who was far away in Chang'an City, and I didn't know how she was doing now.

When leaving Chang'an, Zhao Chen didn't feel so reluctant to leave.

However, after experiencing the Battle of Songzhou and seeing countless lives passing away quietly in a blink of an eye, Zhao Chen's mood was no longer the same as before when he returned to Chang'an.

What a great blessing it is to meet again after a long absence

.

…

Three people and three horses rode fast all the way from Songzhou.

It also took a full twenty days for the three of them to stand outside the Chang'an city wall.

Looking at the various pedestrians passing by on the official road, and listening to the familiar Guanzhong accent, Zhao Chen's heart became excited.

It didn't take long for me to leave Chang'an, no more than three months at most.

But everything in front of me seemed to have such a strange feeling.

There is no such thing as being more timid than what others say about being close to home. Zhao Chen is very eager, eager to see everything in his memory.

It was a bit cold in Chang'an City in early spring, and the cold wind blew on my face like a knife.

The foal has grown up a lot, and even after running around for twenty consecutive days, there is no sign of any discomfort in it.

At this moment, the little pony seemed to have recalled the memories of the past. He snorted and followed the crowd into Chang'an City.

In Pingkangfang, Zhao Chen saw the familiar house on the corner in front of him from a distance.

Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu reined in their horses and watched Zhao Chen move forward.

"Da da da--"

The sound of the foal's hooves echoed loudly on the street outside the Wangyou Tavern.

Zhao Chen watched from a distance. On the steps outside the tavern, a man dressed in red stood in the wind, like a fairy who had been banished to the mortal world, looking dreamily in the direction of his return.

Zhao Chen reined in the colt, which snorted loudly and its big eyes twitched.

Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu turned their horses and left.

Zhao Chen dismounted and walked forward step by step.

He walked very slowly, so slowly that Zhao Chen could clearly remember how many steps he had taken.

Li Ruoshuang kept walking and trotted towards Zhao Chen.

In front of Zhao Chen, Li Ruoshuang stopped, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and looked at him with a smile.

Zhao Chen.

Zhao Chen also looked at her with a smile on his face.

"how are things?"

"fine!"

The two of them actually asked and answered themselves in unison.

Then the two of them were stunned for a moment, and then laughed.

"How did you know that I would come back today and come to the tavern first?" Zhao Chen hugged Li Ruoshuang and asked softly.

Li Ruoshuang's face turned slightly red, she shook her head, snuggled into Zhao Chen's arms obediently, and chuckled, "Did everything go well on the way back?"

Zhao Chen nodded.

Even though there are thousands of words in my heart, I can't say anything at this moment.

Any more words about the joy after reunion would ruin the atmosphere at the moment.

Tears fell again. Li Ruoshuang nuzzled into Zhao Chen's arms, sniffed heavily, raised her head and smiled with Zhao Chen, "It's always harder outside than at home. Come on, let's go home."

Zhao Chen nodded, took Li Ruoshuang's little hand, and the two of them walked side by side slowly towards home.

…

"Your Majesty, news just came from below that the Marquis of Zhao County...oh no, the Duke of Zhao County is back!"

In Ganquan Hall, Li Shimin was reviewing the memorial.

In a few days, spring planting will begin, and farming will begin in various places. Li Shimin is very concerned about Datang's farming activities this year.

Especially those seeds in Wannian County that produce three thousand kilograms per mu.

This year will be their first trial.

If it were feasible, Li Shimin himself could not even imagine what kind of changes it would bring to Datang.

Thinking about the day when Zhao Chen would return to Chang'an City, Li Shimin had many things that he wanted to ask Zhao Chen face to face.

Counting the days, Zhao Chen should be back in the next few days.

However, when he suddenly heard the news about the eunuch next to him, Li Shimin was still stunned, and then his face showed joy.

"Okay, just come back."

"Go, tell the news about Zhao Chen's return.

The message was passed to the Li Zheng Hall. "Li Shimin waved his hand and ordered.

Queen Changsun was very anxious after not seeing Zhao Chen these days.

The news of Zhao Chen's return must be told to her in time.

After the eunuch left, Li Shimin no longer thought about reviewing the memorial.

Now he wanted to go to Zhao Chen, but he felt something was wrong.

After all, he is the emperor after all.

How can a minister not come to see him, but go to see his minister first?

For Zhao Chen, Li Shimin already felt that he had no lower limit, but if there was no lower limit, he couldn't do this.

Otherwise, the officials in the DPRK will drown him tomorrow.

Suppressing his inner thoughts, Li Shimin took a few more steps and finally calmed down.

Just as he sat down and wanted to continue reviewing the memorial, Li Shimin looked up and saw Empress Changsun walking over quickly.

There was a deep joy on his face.

"Your Majesty, I heard that Zhao Chen has returned from Songzhou." Queen Changsun and Li Shimin asked.

His expression was filled with deep anticipation.

"Guanyin Maid, I will summon Zhao Chen tomorrow. Please don't go today. It's not appropriate." Li Shimin didn't know what Queen Changsun was thinking.

But no matter how much I missed him, I couldn't go over to see him at this time.

If this spreads out, not only the officials will go crazy, but even the prince and the king of Wei will have no way to explain it.

"My concubine is fine. If Zhao Chen's child can return to Chang'an City safely, then I will feel at ease. After your majesty asks tomorrow, can Zhao Chen come to the Li Zheng Palace?" Empress Changsun said to the emperor.

The emperor turned the brothel next to Zhao Chen's new residence into Chang'an Academy, which was also a mistake.

Now the prince, King Wei and other royal family members, as well as the sons of the Xungui family, are all studying there.

There is only a wall between the academy and Zhao Chen's residence. If you go there frequently, you will inevitably be discovered by those people.

It is very bad for this to spread.
