The journey from Beijing Wudu to Tongguan was long and arduous. Even with the fastest horses pushing forward day and night, it would take at least three to four days to reach their destination. The roads were rugged and uneven, causing the carriages to jolt violently. Several elderly physicians were left feeling dizzy, as if their very bones might come apart.
Despite their fatigue and discomfort, they were solely focused on arriving at Tongguan as soon as possible. After a lengthy and challenging trek, they finally reached the magnificent Tongguan. This fortress stood like an indestructible barrier against the earth.
When the group saw Lin Feng awaken from his coma, the heavy weight that had been pressing on their hearts finally lifted, and they breathed a sigh of relief. Immediately, the accompanying physicians rushed forward to examine Lin Feng's condition closely.
After a flurry of activity, the physicians were delighted to discover that Lin Feng was not seriously harmed; with some rest and care, he would gradually recover. Without wasting a moment, they arranged for riders to swiftly convey the news of Lin Feng's safe condition back to the capital, reporting it to the current Emperor Wu and Lin Zhen.
To ensure everything was secure, they decided to remain in Tongguan temporarily until Lin Feng fully recovered before heading back. Time passed swiftly, and before long, half a month had gone by.
Now, Lin Feng's health had improved significantly; he could walk freely and even the once agonizing wounds no longer tormented him as before. However, during his recovery, Lin Feng received some heartbreaking news: only a handful of soldiers returned from the expedition. The fierce battle had nearly led to the annihilation of the entire army!
As for the one who dared to ambush Lin Feng, although he felt a lingering resentment about it, he chose not to pursue the matter further. Instead, he specifically instructed Lu Yong beside him not to let this information spread.
Lin Feng had his own plans regarding how to handle this situation. A few days later, after careful recuperation, he was finally fully recovered and set off for Wu City with renewed vigor. Accompanying him were Mardu and others; they traveled together in good spirits.
Mardu's family and clansmen were safely settled in Tongguan, where the environment was pleasant and life stable, allowing them peace of mind. The journey back went smoothly without any unexpected incidents or obstacles.
Lin Feng and his companions traveled day and night until they quickly arrived at Wu City. From a distance, the towering city walls loomed high into the clouds; the gates stood wide open with people coming and going, creating a lively scene.
As Lin Feng approached the city gate, he suddenly noticed a few people standing ahead. Upon closer inspection, he recognized that the leader was a eunuch dressed in luxurious robes. The eunuch had a stern expression and held a whisk, exuding an air of authority.
As Lin Feng drew near, the eunuch quickly stepped forward with a beaming smile and greeted him, "Fourth Prince, you have finally arrived! We have been waiting for you for quite some time."
Lin Feng hurriedly returned the greeting, anticipating the eunuch's next move. The eunuch leisurely pulled out a yellow imperial edict from his bosom and began to read aloud in a loud voice: "By the decree of the Emperor, it is commanded that Fourth Prince Lin Feng shall enter the palace to attend court without fail. Thus it is decreed!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Feng did not dare to delay. He immediately knelt down and respectfully replied, " Your son humbly obeys the imperial will."
After Lin Feng received the edict with both hands, the eunuch nodded slightly in acknowledgment before turning around with his subordinates to leave. Lin Feng watched their retreating figures, lost in thought.
After a brief pause, he took a deep breath, striving to adjust his mindset and gradually calm the surging emotions within him.
