After the "Draw lots" ceremony, the servants put away all the things, and then came the victory feast. After Liu Wenan announced the imperial edict and awarded the generals who had performed meritorious deeds in the battle, music started. In such a grand ceremony, festive songs and dances were inevitable.
Seeing the excitement on Bao'er's face had gone, and that he looked sleepy while yawning in her arms, Yun Shang asked Qian Zhuo to take Bao'er back to the Weiyang Palace.
After three rounds of drinking, the generals became a little excited. Lin Shen took a glass of wine and stood up, "Thanks to her majesty, we can make a great victory this time. Her majesty carefully explored the terrain and found the stone forest. She set an all-sided ambush array." As Lin Shen spoke, he laughed and looked at the people in the hall, "I'm afraid you don't know that the all-sided ambush array relied on some stones and trees only, but it caused the troops of Yelang to lose more than 70000 soldiers. Our army was at a disadvantage in the number of soldiers. Even after the reinforcements arrived, we were still fifty thousand soldiers fewer than the enemy. Relying on the all-sided ambush array, we suddenly became the one who had the advantage out of the disadvantage. "
Lin Shen raised his glass and said, "If it weren't for her majesty, I don't know how many more generals and soldiers from the State of Xia would have been killed or wounded by the enemy. I'll thank her majesty on behalf of all the soldiers and their families."
Hearing Lin Shen's words, the generals who had participated in the battle of the Lingxi City in the palace all stood up and said, "To the Empress."
Yun Shang's nose twitched slightly. Sh
palace."
Qian Zhuo replied softly and left.
The party didn't end until the evening. Yun Shang was a little drunk. They went back to the the Weiyang Palace. Luo Qingyan was led to the study by Liu Wenan. Yun Shang asked Qian Zhuo to open the window. Along the way, Yun Shang was much sober. Now the night wind outside blew, and she was almost completely sober.
"Bring them in," Yun Shang whispered.
Qian Zhuo ordered servants to bring them in. Yun Shang heard a woman's voice coming from outside, which sounded very unhappy. "Let go of me. Do you know who I am?"
Yun Shang smiled and looked up at the two people who came in. They were both dressed as maids, but the clothes were not the clothes of the servants in the palace. They should be the family members brought in by a master.
Qian Zhuo sneered, "No matter who you are, you should salute the Empress."
Hearing this, both of them raised their heads to look at Yun Shang. Qian Zhuo snapped, "How dare you! Can you look directly at the face of the Empress?"
The woman standing on the left ignored her and ran to Yun Shang in a hurry. "Your Majesty, I'm here to see you."
