Chapter 1166: Chapter 1158: Official Departure, Returning to the Duke of Zhen’s Residence_1 Chapter 1166: Chapter 1158: Official Departure, Returning to the Duke of Zhen’s Residence_1 Lin Jinyun’s response arrived quickly, expressing her joy while also attaching a detailed distribution plan.

Without any delay, Lin Jinyu immediately arranged for caravans, pulling a portion of old troops from within the valley to join with three thousand mansion soldiers, delivering vegetables to various counties in batches.

Lin Qingluo and the two little elves trudged around the various vegetable fields, harvesting crops.

The two treasures frolicked in the fields, working while they played, their cheerful laughers adding to the joy around them.

Jin Jing often came to help, experiencing the joy of the harvest, and the cheerful laughter of the two treasures, which made her feel unusually refreshed.

The day of official departure arrived.

Lin Qingluo took Huya and his wife, Huniu, Leibao, and kept them in the Primordial Orb, escorting her family back to the Capital City.

The old troops in the valley lined up for a farewell, some humming the northern folk songs, eliciting a group of rugged men to join in the chorus, shedding tears at the scene.

The Old Master and Duke of Zhen wiped their reddened eyes, waved farewell to their subordinates, flashes of their youthful days galloping and fighting in battlefields surging in their minds, adding a touch of fearlessness and heroism.

*
Three days later, Capital of Liyang.

In the beginning of winter, clusters of dark clouds suddenly surged in the sky, with rolling thunder that hinted the upcoming snowfall.

The horses neighed loudly, startled by the sudden thunder, and snorted irritably.

Lin Jinyun, cloaked in black armor, on horseback, faced the chilly winter wind and led his troop, the Lin Clan soldiers, waiting outside of the southwest gate that leads to the Foshou Temple.

Thousands of spirited light cavalry, neatly arranged in a rectangular formation, filed in behind him.

The southwest gate, wide open, at a distance of several tens of meters in front of the city tower, three Great Commanders of the Imperial Court, both officials and warriors, stood at the forefront.

Xu Ruyun looked out in the distance, her fine brows revealing an unmistakable excitement.

The scene of their first meeting, nine years ago with Lin Qingluo, still vivid in her mind.

Back then, the little girl who fearlessly ran through the bloody battlefield, has now grown into an invincible God of War.

And today, with the full support of the people, she was about to ascend to the throne.

Snowflakes began to fall from the sky, the hurried hoofbeats growing closer from afar, the messenger soldier approached speedily from outside the city, dismounted and knelt on one knee before Lin Jinyun to report.

“General, the convoy is at the one-mile slope, it will reach the city gate in half an incense stick’s time.”

“Half an incense stick’s time? I’m already so tired.”

“We’ve been standing here since morning till noon without even eating, my legs are about to break from standing so long.”

“It’s just receiving Duke of Zhen, what’s the big fuss about?”

“Exactly, officials and warriors, regardless of rank, are all out for the reception. People know this show is for Duke of Zhen, those who don’t would think it was the Emperor himself!”

“Shush, keep your voices down. Don’t you want your heads? We’re talking about Duke of Zhen here. Remember what happened to the Monarch of Beiqi, one hundred heads wouldn’t be enough to compensate for critiquing him.”

“You guys are dumb! Is this really for receiving the Duke of Zhen? Let’s use some common sense, there’s someone else they’re welcoming here.”

The snow fell harder and amid the officials, a quiet murmur of discontent spread.

Lin Jinyun’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, tightening his grip on his horse’s reign, a flicker of displeasure in his eyes.
