Your Majesty, Please Stop!

Chapter 276: The Shock and Joy of the Jiang Family

The Second Young Master, who had matured a lot in the past few months, suddenly became unruly, causing dozens of managers in the Great Hall to be astonished and puzzled.

Li Yun also stopped in her tracks, furrowing her brows slightly.

What has gotten into the Second Young Master?

"Yugui!" Ji Yao Yue softly reprimanded.

As the eldest sister-in-law, she maintained absolute etiquette and showed great concern for her younger siblings. Whether it was Jiang Yugui, Jiang Yuqing, or the talented Jiang Nüying, they all respected her.

Sure enough, Jiang Yugui restrained himself a bit, but still behaved strangely. He casually picked up the tea next to him, took a big sip, and had the appearance of a carefree person. "From now on, let's see who dares to provoke my Jiang family? Damn, they should think twice!"

Before everyone could ask in confusion, his eyes gleamed mischievously, and he said like a thief, "In the Western Regions, in the Battle of Xiaofeichuan, my elder brother personally led the army. With 140,000 elite soldiers from Western Qin, he fought against a million-strong coalition army from the Western Regions. In one battle, he determined the outcome, annihilating the million-strong Western Regions army, completely wiping them out!"

"My elder brother is invincible on the battlefield. On that day, blood flowed like rivers, and the sun and moon lost their light. It can be said that he became famous in one battle, shaking the world!"

"Clang!" Li Yun dropped the lotus seed soup in her hand, splashing it on her leg, but she didn't even notice.

"Boom..."

More than twenty managers stood up one after another, first in a daze, then their eyes emitted a brighter light than Jiang Yugui's.

Ji Yao Yue blinked her beautiful eyes and a blush appeared on her face as she asked softly, "Has the news of victory in the Western Regions arrived?"

Before Jiang Yugui could excitedly answer, the elderly Grand Dowager, who looked much older in the inner hall, hurriedly walked out with the support of the North Sea Princess, her lips trembling. "What did you say? Say it again?"

"Oh no! Grandmother, I don't know!" Jiang Yugui jumped up. "My elder brother..."

"Grandmother! Sister-in-law!"

Just then, Jiang Yuqi ran in with red eyes, panting and excitedly said, "Great victory in the Western Regions! Waves of messengers have brought victory reports. In the Battle of Xiaofeichuan in the Western Regions, my elder brother completely annihilated the million-strong coalition army of thirteen countries! A complete victory!"

"And that's not all! With the prestige of his great victory, my elder brother dispatched capable generals under his command, leading a thousand elite cavalry to launch a surprise attack on ten countries in the Western Regions on a snowy night, capturing and destroying their imperial cities! Shaking the world!"

"Now the entire capital is boiling with excitement, hahaha..."

After speaking, she couldn't help but burst into laughter, completely losing the demeanor of a young lady.

It can be said that her mood had reached its peak. Just a moment ago, she was discussing the situation in the Western Regions with her five close friends, talking about martial arts and arguing with flushed faces.

Suddenly, the victory report came, and she still vividly remembered the stunned looks of her friends. That feeling... was truly priceless.

"This, this..." The more than twenty managers were flushed with excitement, and they even forgot about their status. They clapped their hands and rejoiced.

Even the usually calm Ji Yao Yue stood up, her face showing a strange surprise.

"My grandson, my grandson..."

The Grand Dowager was overwhelmed with joy and shock, her body swaying.

The North Sea Princess, with a stunned expression, almost forgot to support her. Seeing that the Grand Dowager was about to fall, she quickly held her up. "Grand Dowager, please don't get too excited. Maybe..."

Maybe what couldn't be said. The waves of messenger reports, major events in the court and the military, obviously couldn't be faked!

Moreover, both the North Sea Princess and the Grand Dowager were knowledgeable about military affairs. They understood too well the terror and shock of annihilating a million-strong army. It was simply a matter of life and death!

"Grand Dowager! Yao Yue!"

Princess Zhengguo, Princess Liyang, Princess Feihuang, and dozens of widowed ladies rushed in, their faces flushed with excitement.

Even Venerable Jiang Yong, who didn't know when he had arrived in the corner, quickly stroked his beard.

"This matter..."

The old lady took a deep breath and calmed down, but her body continued to tremble. She raised her old hand and said, "I want to know the detailed battle report!"

"Old lady!"

At this moment, Chanyi hurriedly walked in from outside. A trace of shock appeared on her originally stern face as she looked at the people in the hall. She bowed and handed over a letter, saying, "The Chief Commander of the Western Region Shadow Guards, Qingge, has sent a detailed battle report!"

Just as she said.

The old lady and Princess Zhengguo both stepped forward almost at the same time. The latter immediately took a step back, her chest heaving, unable to conceal her excitement.

The old lady's face was full of smiles as she handed the letter to Ji Yaoyue beside her and said, "My daughter-in-law, read it!"

Ji Yaoyue did not refuse and took the letter, opened it, glanced at it, and her beautiful eyes trembled slightly. Her pleasant voice said, "It's all true! It is indeed a great victory! However... my husband killed 650,000 surrendered troops from the Western Region, reorganized the elite forces of the Western Region, and now has an army of 500,000 and thousands of generals. He has also annihilated ten Western Region countries and expanded our territory for thousands of miles. He has shaken the entire Western Region and his name has spread throughout the world!"

"Good, good, good..."

The old lady said "good" nine times in a row. Her old figure straightened up a bit, her face glowing with redness, as if she had become a bit younger.

She had already overlooked the terrible atrocity of killing 650,000 surrendered troops.

Heaven is indeed merciful! This child surpasses his father by far. With just this one battle, the former Prince of Xiqin, Jiang Wen, and countless famous generals throughout the world pale in comparison!

Such tactics, such iron-blooded achievements, can be called glorious in history!

How can one not be excited? How can the Jiang family not go crazy?

Princess Zhengguo even had tears in her eyes and said, "Yuming has an army of 500,000 and controls the vast territory from Xiqin to the Western Region. His strength is second only to the three armies in front of the imperial court, surpassing the Southern Li army! From now on, the Jiang family will rise completely. Let's see who dares to provoke my Jiang family!"

Princess Feihuang's beautiful oval face revealed a trace of ferocity inexplicably. "Those who abandoned the Jiang family and changed sides, no matter how they beg, we will no longer accept them!"

This victory is truly satisfying!

"Old lady!"

"Yuming has won a great victory! Xiqin has won a great victory!"

"Yuming is truly a renowned general in the world!"

"Our Jiang family will restore the glory of our ancestors!"

A large group of young ladies and daughters-in-law rushed in from the direction of the main gate. They were the daughters of the major noble families in the capital who had returned to their parents' homes. Even before they approached, their excited voices had already reached the hall.

There is no room for them to be unhappy. A strong family brings face to oneself in the in-laws' family. Moreover, this time, it is not just about face. Even if they have suffered grievances in the past few days because of their parents' family, they will gain a hundredfold in return.

Who dares to look down on us? Just ask if our famous general brothers/nephews are willing or not. Are the million-strong victorious army under his command willing or not?

It is truly uplifting!

"Good, good, good..."

The old lady was full of joy. "All my daughters have returned. After the ancestral sacrifice, we will have a grand feast to celebrate the great victory of my grandson, Qilin!"

"Old lady." Ji Yaoyue, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke up. "Take this opportunity to request the emperor to grant my husband the title of a prince from a different surname!"

The old lady, the princesses, and the influx of daughters-in-law all paused for a moment and looked at her in surprise. It's good to celebrate by closing the door at home, but one must still maintain some dignity. Isn't this approach a way to threaten the emperor and test the bottom line of the prime minister and officials?

Ji Yaoyue seemed to have guessed what everyone was thinking and smiled slightly. "After such a great achievement, if my Jiang family remains silent, it will only make those with ulterior motives uneasy. Only by requesting titles and rewards can we reassure the emperor and the officials!"

The old lady understood and walked towards the writing desk, personally picking up the brush and writing a letter to the emperor.

The second young master, Jiang Yugui, was already impatient, constantly rubbing his hands. "We must celebrate! We must celebrate! The Jiang family will be unrivaled in the future!"

"Hehe..."

The women in the hall couldn't help but laugh.
