"Your Majesty is almost here with people, it's really exciting to think about it. "Rongcheng is at the city gate, and two veterans on the city tower are talking, and one of the younger ones speaks.

It has been seven days since the death of Aguba, and all the soldiers and civilians in Rongcheng have heard about it, and only then do they know that their great emperor His Majesty actually took risks to prevent the desolate people from holding a fire worship festival, and even killed Aguba in one fell swoop, forever eliminating future troubles.

Everyone who heard the news was so excited that they shouted long live on the spot.

You must know that everyone who lives in Rongcheng, whether it is a commoner or a nobleman, a soldier or a general, is worried day and night, for fear that one day, the gate of Rongcheng will be knocked open by the desolate people in their sleep, and many people, their relatives and friends died at the hands of the desolate people, and all of them hate Aguba very much. Now that Aguba is dead, although their hatred has not been completely resolved, once a son of heaven and a courtier, now the barren clan is in charge of Cangyang, and has signed an alliance with the dynasty that will never be violated.

The covenant may not be broken, but the desolate clan has lost strong people such as the high priest and Aguba one after another, and even if they still have to go to war, they are by no means the opponents of the dynasty, so as long as they know a little common sense, they will know that the war is over.

The war is over, it's a magical word, it means no more fighting with other races, it means you can go home.

Many people cried when they heard the news.

Another veteran holding a spear also secretly shed tears, but now he looked light-hearted, and said: "Don't be excited, it's not the first day you have seen our majesty create a miracle." ”

A recruit next to him couldn't help but say: "I heard that His Majesty's assassination plan failed, and in the end, it was the students of the academy who killed Aguba, it seems that it was Yan Li?"

The veteran said with disdain on his face: "Hmph, if it weren't for Lord Huaibi beating Aguba to a half-crippled, how could he have a chance to succeed as a mere student." ”

The recruit hadn't yet appreciated Zhang Huaibi's power, let alone Zhang's status in Rongcheng, so he hesitated: "But I heard that when Ah Guba died, his whole body was intact, and he was beheaded by Yan Li's sword." ”

The slightly younger veteran said: "You don't understand this, Lord Huaibi has always been low-key, so he naturally disdains to stand up and refute the rumors, Yan Li's kid talks nonsense casually, and everyone only listens to him." Besides, after all, they are all His Majesty's subjects, although he killed Ah Cuba, it may not have been arranged by His Majesty a long time ago, otherwise how could he kill the master of the Shura List?"

"Not bad. The veteran nodded in agreement, "Your Majesty was far-sighted and arranged for him to make the final kill early, which is called knowing people and making good use of them." ”

Sometimes the truth is not important, people always like to worship the truth related to their own vital interests, and exclude all dissidents, even if Zhang Huaibi tells him the truth in person, he will definitely think that the former is modest, and it is a senior who is promoting the juniors.

Therefore, what matters is not what the truth is, but what people want.

It's like a civilian and a hero who says he has done a great thing, but people are more willing to believe in the hero, because it is more in line with their vital interests, only a hero can do a great thing, how can a civilian like himself do it? If they want to believe in a civilian, it is equivalent to admitting that they are incompetent.

It is not easier to get them to admit that they are incompetent than to ask them to die.

"Look, look. The recruit suddenly screamed excitedly.

The irregular sound of horses' hooves came from below the horizon, and the orange sunset sprinkled down from the right side of the horizon, as if to welcome it, paved with the golden yellow of the ground, and the elongated shadows gradually extended over the golden yellow of the ground.

The first to come out was a banner with the national emblem of the Great Xia Dynasty simply painted on it, which was an irise.

The iris is a symbol of light and freedom, so the first law that Taizu established was that slaves were not allowed to be bought and sold. Throughout the previous dynasty, there was no dynasty where the people were freer than the current dynasty, and all civilians could travel freely between states and counties, and only the consent of the government was required for migration.

The people who carried the banner high were originally slaves, but now they were holding their heads high and strutting for the sake of their status as subjects of the Great Xia Dynasty.

In the center of the long procession, there is a paper kite wearing a plain white robe, she is riding a horse, her eyes are looking straight ahead, naturally revealing a kind of peaceful majesty, and a constant realm of not being happy with things and not being sad about herself.

Shen Liuyun and Zhang Huaibi also rode their horses, walking on her left and right, acting like her guards.

Yan Li followed behind, lying very lazily on horseback, cocking Erlang's legs, snoring slightly, obviously sleeping soundly.

Li Rulong followed him on foot, because he felt that he did not contribute half of his strength in this battle, and he did not dare to ride a horse. While preventing Yan Li from falling off the horse, he whispered, "Engong, Engong wake up, we have arrived in Rongcheng, you are not good for people to see like this, you will say that you are arrogant and unruly......"

Yan Li rolled over, continued to close his eyes, and said lazily: "Don't they say this, I can be promoted and make a fortune?" ”

Li Rulong smiled bitterly and said: "If you kill Azari and Acuba, you will be invincible in the three armies, and it will not be a problem to worship the marquis, but you should also have a heroic consciousness and pay attention to your image." ”

Yan Li sneered: "A robber has been a robber all his life, no one will think that you are a hero, even if there is, it is only a small part, this very small part, there is not even room to speak." ”

Li Rulong sighed, not knowing how to answer.

To convince Yan Li, you must first have more than or at least the same experience, and in some ways, Yan Li is not sophisticated at all like a young man.

"If you don't sit up again, I'll cook for you every day. Shen Liuyun said lightly.

Yan Li immediately sat up straight, and said, "From today onwards, I decided to learn from Mr. Bigu's skills. ”

Li Rulong sighed again, it was really one thing and one thing.

Before the procession arrived at the main gate of Rongcheng, the soldiers and civilians inside had already cheered and poured out, and went straight out more than ten miles away, visiting their great emperor majesty.

From the moment the city gate opened, the cheers never stopped, and the noisy Yan Li wanted to plug their mouths with stinky socks.

At this time, he came to the gate of the city, Zhang Zhidong led dozens of soldiers, personally greeted him, and the people who carried the flag in front of their heads immediately divided to both sides, Zhang Zhidong led people to walk in front of Ji Paper Kite, and landed on one knee: "The old minister greets Your Majesty." ”

"Greetings to Your Majesty, the last general!" shouted the soldiers behind him in unison. There was a look of respect in everyone's eyes.

Ji Paper Kite got off the horse and walked up quickly to help Zhang Zhidong: "Zhuqing, please get up, if you have anything to say in the city." ”

Even she got off the horse, Yan Li had to get off the horse, and he suddenly found that Ma Guanshan and Lian Hai Changjin were also in the queue, looking at him with a strange and sad look.

From their eyes, Yan Li had a premonition that something bad had happened, and he had no bottom in his heart, but it was enough to start being vigilant.

The two of them will be here, indicating that the war in Bingzhou is going well, and Xiliang should have received the news to withdraw the army. What happened to make them go against the holy decree and come all the way to Rongcheng?

As he pondered, he didn't notice that someone's eyes were staring at him.

"This is the little brother Yan who killed Acuba, and he really deserves to be a rising star on the Tianjiao list, you and I had some misunderstandings before, so it is better to go to the cold house with Your Majesty to eat some wine and food, and solve the misunderstanding. Zhang Zhidong stood up and said with a smile.

Yan Lipi said with a smile: "I'm sorry for you, I just decided to learn the skills of Bigu from Mr. ”

"Yan Li, don't be rude to the marshal. Shen Liuyun frowned and reprimanded. Then he turned to Zhang Zhidong, "Marshal, my students are not very sensible, please don't be surprised." ”

Zhang Zhidong smiled gently: "You know, the old man especially appreciates talented young people. Isn't the wine in the old man's house enough to attract little brother Yan? ”

Yan Li said in surprise: "How did the kid hear that your old man is prejudiced against cultivators? It's better to be famous than to meet, don't you like it very much, there are always some people who like to create rumors, those people really should be caught and cut out their tongues, what do you say?"

His voice wasn't loud, but it was loud enough for everyone to hear.

The face of a general behind Zhang Zhidong changed, and he shouted: "What an arrogant boy, the marshal invited you to eat and drink, he gave you a few thin noodles, just a robber, you think you have really become a big man!"

Yan Li laughed and said, "What's the matter, you still want to tie me up?"

"No one can go against the marshal's wishes!" the general said coldly.

"Oh?" Yan said, "So your majesty doesn't want to go, can't you?"

The general's face immediately turned red, and he said angrily: "Your Majesty, what kind of identity, of course you can come if you want to, and leave if you want!"

Yan Li said: "Then what do you mean is that you have decided to eat me, a worthless little person?" He looked like he had made up his mind to make trouble to the end, and the atmosphere in the venue immediately stiffened.

Ji Paper Kite watched coldly, neither stopping nor participating.

"Brother Yan, long time no see. At this moment, Lian Hai Changjin and Ma Guanshan suddenly came out of the ranks, first saluted Ji Paper Kite, and then grabbed him and said, "I haven't seen you for so long, why don't you have a drink together." ”

Lian Hai Changjin secretly glanced at him again and again.

Ma Guanshan said in a low voice: "Yan Li, for the sake of classmates, you will save some face for my teacher." ”

Yan Li frowned, and then smiled: "Well, since everyone is going, if I don't go, won't I be disappointed?"

"That's very good. Zhang Zhidong smiled and stretched out his hand to let Ji Paper Kite walk in front, and then slowly paced to follow.

Yan Li followed, looked at Lian Hai and Ma, and said, "Aren't you in Bingzhou, why did you suddenly come to Rongcheng?"

"Ye Qing is dead. "Maguan Mountain Road.

Yan Li paused, and then continued to walk: "How did you die?"

Lian Hai Changjin said: "It is said that he was killed by assassins to protect the marshal. ”
