A distance of one hundred feet was neither long nor short.
For the current Yang Wu, it was only a distance of one or two steps. Now, it took him a full quarter of an hour to get close to his parents.
Su Roumei burst into tears, and Yang Zhennan's face was already covered in tears.
"Wu 'er, quickly get up. Don't kowtow anymore. Mother knows that you are a good child and doesn't blame you." Su Roumei shook off Yang Zhennan's hand and threw herself at Yang Wu. She held her grown son in her arms and cried bitterly.
"Mother!" Yang Wu hugged Su Roumei like a child who had done something wrong and cried out with grievance.
That's right, he was really wronged.
Ever since he was a child, he was a naughty child. However, he had never made his parents feel bad about important matters. It was because he rejected the princess, Tang Jiaoyan, that the things that happened after that happened. This was something that he had never expected.
He felt wronged because he didn't do anything wrong, but he was framed and framed.
He felt wronged because he was handsome. Was it wrong to reject a woman's proposal?
He felt wronged because even if he was executed, he didn't want his parents to suffer any harm.
All kinds of grievances simply seeped into his bones.
"Child, don't cry. Don't cry. Let's go inside first. Don't let others see a joke." Su Roumei patted Yang Wu's back and comforted him.
No matter how high her son's achievements were, in her mother's eyes, he would always be a child.
Yang Wu stood up and wiped away his tears. He helped his mother wipe her tears and said, "Mother, don't worry. After crying this time, I won't cry again."
"En, Wu 'er has grown up and is sensible. Mother is relieved." Su Roumei said with relief.
Yang Wu pulled his mother's hand and walked toward Yang Zhennan. He called out, "Father, I'm back."
"It's good that you're back. How can a grown man like you be crying here? You've lost all the face of the Yang Family. Hurry up and get in the house." Yang Zhennan had already secretly wiped away his tears. He put on the look of a strict father and reprimanded Yang Wu.
Yes, it was good that he was back. No matter what happened to his son outside, as a father, as long as his son returned safely, he would be satisfied.
"I'm sorry Father, in the future I will definitely not lose face for the Yang Family." Yang Wu said solemnly.
"Alright, as long as you're safe, that's all that matters." Yang Zhennan sighed softly.
He looked at his son's appearance. Although he seemed to be doing well, he must have suffered a lot to be able to return to the Royal City in just a year.
Yang Wu turned around and beckoned to those close to him, "All of you come in together, the rest of you immediately guard my Yang Family Mansion, whoever dares to force their way in, kill without mercy."
"Yes, General!" The one thousand five hundred cavalrymen responded in unison. Their intimidating aura caused the surrounding people to retreat in fear.
Just like that, Yang Wu brought Meng Bingxue, Wan Lanxin, Shou Hou, and Lu Zhi into the house. The others stayed outside to guard, waiting for everything to calm down before making further arrangements.
When Yang Wu entered the house, the others saw that there was no more drama to watch, so they gradually dispersed.
They talked about what they had seen and heard today and talked about it after dinner. Yang Wu's name was known by everyone in the Royal City.
Inside the Yang Family Mansion, it used to be the Marquis' Mansion, and it occupied a large area. It used to be decorated elegantly, but after the Marquis' Mansion was confiscated, all the luxurious items, even the decorative rockery, were all taken away, leaving only the empty buildings intact.
Recently, many officials and nobles had sent a lot of gifts, but Yang Zhennan and his wife had rejected them all. They did not accept any gifts, even the gifts sent by Su Roumei's family were all returned.
After going through the disaster of being imprisoned, they understood that there were very few people who would send charcoal in the snow, and there were many people who would add flowers to the brocade. They had seen through it all, so they did not accept these gifts easily, and waited for their son to come back and make the decision.
Yang Wu looked at the desolate courtyard, but he did not care. He was back, and the Yang Family would become more glorious than before.
Before they reached the main hall, a maidservant came up to them and curtsied, "Welcome back, Eldest Young Master."
Yang Wu looked at her and immediately shouted with joy, "Sister Keren, you are fine, this is great!"
Before the Yang Family Mansion was confiscated, Yang Keren was out for some business, so she was not caught in one fell swoop, and she escaped.
"Thank you for your concern, Young Master. Seeing your glorious return, this servant is very happy." Yang Keren said with a smile like a flower.
Yang Wu said with emotion, "Sister Keren, you have been taking care of my parents these days. It has been hard on you."
"This is what this servant should do." Yang Keren's eyes fell on Meng Bingxue and Wan Lanxin, who were behind Yang Wu. Her beautiful eyes flashed with a complicated look.
"Don't just stand there. Keren is not an outsider. Let's go inside and talk." Su Roumei said while holding Yang Wu's hand and Yang Keren's hand respectively.
In the Yang Family, Yang Keren was already considered a child daughter-in-law. Yang Zhennan and Su Roumei treated her like their own daughter, and Yang Wu and Yang Wen treated her like an older sister. As she grew older, Yang Keren became more and more beautiful, and gentle. Who would be willing to marry such a woman? Su Roumei already had the intention to let her marry her eldest son, even if it was a concubine. Now that she was holding Yang Keren's hand, it was clear that she wanted to marry her eldest son.
Su Roumei was an experienced person. She had already seen Meng Bingxue and Wan Lanxin. She could see that the relationship between these two women and her son was not simple. However, now was not the time to talk about life matters. Her son had grown up, so everything was up to him.
After the group entered the Yang Family's hall, Yang Keren went to prepare the guest's room as the housekeeper. She also had to worry about the food for the Death Corps.
If it was before, she might not be able to do it alone, but now that she had another identity, such a small matter was not difficult for her. It was time for her to take the initiative to do something for the Yang Family.
Yang Wu saw that Yang Keren had changed completely from before, but he did not expose her. Everything would have to wait until everything settled down.
After arriving at the hall, Yang Wu introduced the people behind him to his parents.
After Yang Zhennan and his wife heard Wan Lanxin, they revealed a surprised expression, especially Yang Zhennan who asked, "Are you Wan Lanxin's daughter?"
"Yes, Uncle Yang." Wan Lanxin obediently replied.
"No wonder he suddenly came to drink with me a few days ago. I finally know what's going on." Yang Zhennan revealed a look of understanding.
Yang Zhennan and Wan Tianlong were old acquaintances. Later, when Wan Tianlong became the Mountain Prison's warden, their relationship faded.
Yang Zhennan still had a deep impression of Wan Lanxin. At that time, his son was always chasing after her.
"Is my father okay?" Wan Lanxin asked with a touch of guilt.
"He's okay. He said that after returning to King City, he can calm down and cultivate. In the future, it shouldn't be a problem for him to break through to the Earth Sea Realm." Yang Zhennan replied.
"Thank you for telling me, Uncle. I'll go back and see my father." Wan Lanxin said gratefully. She suddenly wanted to go home, so she immediately blurted out.
"Go back. We'll meet again in two days." Yang Wu looked sideways at Wan Lanxin and said.
Wan Lanxin looked at Yang Wu and nodded lightly. After bowing to Yang Zhennan and Su Roumei, she quickly left the Yang Residence and returned home.
Yang Wu sent Wan Lanxin off with his eyes and sighed in his heart, "Now that I've returned, I must give Big Sister Lanxin some additional compensation."
Back in the Mountain Prison, in order to take care of him, Wan Lanxin didn't hesitate to part with her father and accompany him to join the army. Yang Wu never forgot this kindness. Even if he gave her a lot of compensation, in his opinion, it was far from enough. Only by treating her well for a lifetime would it be enough to express his gratitude to her.
After that, Yang Wu chatted with his parents for a while before personally leading Shou Hou, Lu Zhi, and the others to settle down. His parents also cooperated with Yang Ke Ren to prepare for the reception.
Now, in the large Yang Residence, other than Yang Ke Ren, there wasn't a single servant. With so many people coming all of a sudden, they didn't know what to do for a while.
Yang Wu waved his hand and said, "Father, Mother, don't worry about it. Let's go to the Drunken Immortal Restaurant."
The Drunken Immortal Restaurant was the largest restaurant in King City. It was a place that only high officials and nobles could afford. The food there was all kinds of delicacies, and the price was very expensive. The number of people it could accommodate was also incomparable to other restaurants.
"Wu 'er, you've suffered a loss once and haven't learned your lesson. We should keep a low profile to avoid being caught." Yang Zhennan said earnestly.
"That's right. Wu 'er, you just stay at home. Your father, Keren, and I will go prepare some food. It's good to stay at home and have some fun." Su Roumei also agreed.
"Father, Mother, you can rest assured. I know what I'm doing. This time, I won't be as easy to take advantage of as before." Yang Wu said with a strong sense of confidence.
Thus, Yang Wu prepared to head to the Drunken Immortal Restaurant to book the place before welcoming his parents.
But before he could do anything, Yang Ke Ren had already taken over the job and said, "Young Master, I'll take care of this matter. You stay at home and accompany Master and Madam."
After saying that, she strode out of the Yang residence with Ana's figure.
Yang Wu looked at her back and didn't stop her. He was puzzled in his heart, "Sister Ke Ren is a bit strange. Could it be that she had another fortuitous encounter?"
While Yang Ke Ren was heading to the Drunken Immortal Restaurant, Shou Hou and Lu Zhi tactfully left the hall. They left some time for Yang Wu and his parents to catch up.
After there were no outsiders present, the family of three finally had time to talk to each other.
At this time, Yang Wu's matter was being debated in the Imperial Palace.
Most people suggested that Yang Wu disobeying the Imperial Edict in the streets was a disgrace to the Imperial Edict and deserved to be executed.
There were also people who suggested that they should first send people to capture Yang Wu and bring him into the palace for interrogation.
