Chapter 109 Return
After Su Ye heard this, his heart moved.

He knew Li Jing's loyalty and feelings for him, and also understood Li Jing's concerns.

After all, it hasn’t been long since Li Jing was promoted by Su Ye.

Their relationship is definitely not as good as that of Zhuque and Yuwen Chengdu, who were brought up in the Yun Palace since childhood.

This would mean that most of Cangzhou’s current strength would be thrown to him.

If Li Jing had any intention of rebelling, it would be an absolute disaster for Cangzhou!
Su Ye sighed and said, "Pharmacist, I have seen your loyalty and bravery."

"It's just that the situation is complicated now and we have to make the wisest choice."

"I feel relieved if you stay and continue to attack Qizhou, so that I can return to Cangzhou without any worries."

After hearing this, Li Jing's eyes flashed with determination.

"Please rest assured, my lord! I will definitely live up to your expectations and trust!"

"As long as I am still alive, I will never let the enemy go beyond the Qilian Mountains!"

Li Jing stood up and knelt before his lord, swearing an oath.

Su Ye quickly helped Li Jing up, his eyes full of emotion and trust.

"With the pharmacist here, I feel relieved."

"It's just that pharmacists also need to be more careful."

He patted Li Jing on the shoulder and said.

"Thank you for your concern, sir."

"In the days ahead, please continue to assist the pharmacist in coming up with ideas and help us overcome the difficulties together."

Then Su Ye turned to Yao Guangxiao and said.

Although Su Ye decided to return to Cangzhou, he still kept Yao Guangxiao.

This is not just about An Li Jing's heart.

After all, he really had to let a newcomer who had just surrendered take charge of Su Ye's entire fortune.

He himself was always worried that he might become too successful and threaten his master.

Suddenly, I was scolded by my lord.

The presence of Yao Guangxiao also gave Li Jing peace of mind.

Sometimes people are just weird.

If you don't send someone to keep an eye on them, they'll become uneasy.

Only when they send people will they feel at ease.

"Please rest assured, my lord! Daoyan will do his best to assist General Li!"

Yao Guangxiao twisted the Buddhist beads and bowed.

Holding the Buddhist beads in his hand, every time he turned one of them, his thoughts seemed to flow with it.

Inside the Yaohua Pass, his heart was not at peace, although he appeared calm and composed on the outside.

He was thinking about the upcoming battle.

Each of the countless checkpoints in Qizhou's rolling mountains is a difficult challenge that requires clever strategies and firm determination to overcome.

He had to play it out in his mind again and again to make sure every detail was considered carefully.

The Buddhist beads slowly turned in Yao Guangxiao's hands, and every time he turned one bead, his heart seemed to find a moment of peace.

The setting sun was like blood, dyeing half the sky red.

Among the vast mountains, an army was standing quietly.

Their armor gleamed coldly in the afterglow of the setting sun, and their flags fluttered in the wind.

Su Ye's armor was carved with exquisite dragon patterns, and he wore an extremely sharp sword at his waist.

This return to Cangling City is not only to deal with urgent government affairs, but also to stabilize the morale of the army.

There is also the war between the Yellow Turbans in the Central Region and Daqian that requires special attention, as well as the three princesses sent by Daqian to form an alliance.

Also, with the joining of Temujin and others, the grassland gradually became chaotic.

Su Ye also needs to add fuel to the fire!

With thousands of thoughts in their eyes, the light cavalrymen who followed Su Ye back this time quickly got ready.

Their movements were swift and orderly, and everyone was full of fighting spirit.

The armor shone brightly in the sun, and his eyes were firm and sharp, as if he was ready to face any challenge at any time.

Su Ye mounted his warhorse and waved his hand to signal his departure.

With a burst of rapid horse hoof sounds, the light cavalry galloped away like arrows.

The team was in uniform formation, with horses' hooves flying and dust rising.

When the light cavalry arrived at Cangling City, the city gate had already been opened.

Li Shanchang and others appeared at the city gate again with their troops.

Outside Cangling City, a wide official road leads directly to the city gate.

The city wall is paved with bluestone, and the years have left mottled marks on its surface, witnessing the vicissitudes of the city's history.

On the city wall, flags fluttered in the wind, demonstrating the majesty and momentum of the capital.

As the sound of horse hooves came closer and closer, the city gate inside and outside gradually became noisy.

As everyone was eagerly waiting, a team of light cavalry gradually appeared at the end of their sight.

They were dressed in uniform armor, with sharp blades on their waists and longbows on their backs. Each of them was a carefully selected elite. At the front of the team, Su Ye, wearing gorgeous armor, rode on a tall horse, with his head held high and his chest puffed out, looking majestic.

His appearance immediately caused a stir inside and outside the city gate.

"His Highness is back!" Some sharp-eyed people recognized the leader Su Ye and immediately cheered.

"Your Highness is mighty!" The people shouted in unison, their voices shaking the whole area.

Finally, under the watchful eyes of everyone, the light cavalry team arrived at the city gate.

Li Shanchang led all the officials to greet him, and they all bowed in unison, shouting, "Welcome back, our lord!"

"Sir, please stand up quickly. You have all worked hard."

Seeing this, Su Ye quickly dismounted from his horse and went forward to help Li Shanchang and the others up.

"It is a blessing for Cangzhou that the lord can return safely!"

Li Shanchang stood up and said to Su Ye with a smile.

Afterwards, Li Shanchang led Su Ye and the soldiers into the city.

Among the jubilant crowd, there were three women whose temperaments were completely different from everyone else, yet each was unique.

The second princess, Si Luoying, was dressed in military uniform and looked heroic.

At this moment, she was among the people, but she still couldn't conceal her innate heroism and majesty.

The fourth princess, Si Luoshi, was wearing an elegant long dress. Her face was gentle and her eyes were filled with intellect and wisdom.

At this moment, she stood quietly in the crowd, gazing into the distance with her poetic eyes, looking forward to Su Ye's return.

The Sixth Princess Si Luoqing, dressed in a tight-fitting outfit of a chivalrous woman, had a cold and firm look in her eyes, and exuded a spirit of not admitting defeat.

Although the three princesses have very different personalities, at this moment their hearts are full of expectations and curiosity about Su Ye, their future husband.

"Second sister, what kind of person do you think this Prince Yun is?"

Si Luoshi couldn't help but ask.

Her voice was clear and pleasant, but in the noisy crowd, only the two sisters beside her could hear it clearly.

"It should be extraordinary. He was able to take over Cangzhou quickly and firmly control it in such a short time while Daqian was caught off guard."

"And seeing the chaos within Dayong, he did not hesitate to send troops to Qizhou."

"I think this prince of Yun must have extraordinary military strategy."

Si Luoying smiled slightly, and her smile revealed confidence and heroism.

"I once heard my master mention that this Prince Yun traveled around the martial arts world for several years."

"He has made quite a name for himself in the martial arts world."

Si Luoqing on the side also added softly.

Just as the three princesses were talking in low voices, the sound of horse hooves was heard from the street in the distance.

The three princesses couldn't help but stand on tiptoe and look into the distance.

I saw a group of cavalry escorting a team slowly approaching.

A young man in armor sat on the snow-white divine horse. He had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and looked very imposing. It was none other than Su Ye, the man they had been waiting for for a long time.

Su Ye walked slowly forward surrounded by the people, always with a gentle smile on his face.

When his eyes inadvertently swept over the three princesses, he was slightly stunned, as if he was attracted by their unique temperament.

But soon, he withdrew his gaze and continued walking.

Although Su Ye only took a quick glance, ripples appeared in the hearts of the three princesses.

They knew that this Prince Yun might be an existence that they could not ignore in their future lives.

As the lord's team walked away, the three princesses slowly came to their senses.

They looked at each other and understood each other's thoughts.

They knew that from today on, their lives would undergo earth-shaking changes because of the arrival of this lord.

"During the time when the lord was away, we have been doing our duty conscientiously and have not dared to slack off in the slightest."

"All is well in the city, the people live and work in peace, the shops are prosperous, and the warehouses are full."

Li Shanchang, who was standing aside, reported the situation in the city to Su Ye as they walked.

"I am deeply pleased that you have governed well, sir."

Su Ye nodded in approval.

As they were talking, the two of them had arrived at the parade ground in the city.

On the parade ground, flags were waving, gongs and drums were beating, and teams of elite soldiers were lined up waiting for inspection.

"My lord, these are the elite soldiers who have been newly trained in the city during this period of time."

"They train day and night, and are ready to go through fire and water for their lord at his command."

Li Shanchang pointed at the soldiers on the parade ground and said to Su Ye.

"Dashan, thank you for your hard work, sir!"

Looking at the spirited new soldiers in front of him, Su Ye said with some emotion.

As expected of a saint-level political talent, a new army that had just been trained not long ago was brought to Qizhou by Su Ye.

He immediately turned around and raised another army.
