Chapter 1392: Welcome to the Sandwich Road
Liu Jinfeng's identity is different from that of ordinary generals defending the city, he is the eldest son and grandson of the Liu family, and Liu Shijun, the general of the camp in the eastern suburbs, is his second uncle. Therefore, the darkness only needs to keep an eye on Liu Jinfeng alone.
There was a lot of noise at the gate of the city, and from the first carriage of the Zhao family, there was a faint sound of coughing one after another.
Liu Jinfeng frowned, lifted the curtain, and saw an old man coughing breathlessly and his face flushed, coughing and bending down. And the old woman sitting next to him gently patted him on the back while wiping away tears.
Looking at the poor old couple in front of him, Liu Jinfeng couldn't help but envy their deep relationship between husband and wife, and couldn't bear to look closely, so he let go and lowered the car curtain.
Liu Jinfeng walked to the second carriage again, lifted the curtain, looked at the middle-aged couple in the carriage, and suddenly had a very familiar feeling, lowered his eyes and thought about it, and his eyes widened in disbelief, looking at the middle-aged man, and then at the middle-aged beauty.
It was Zhao Fengwen and Xing Xirong who were inside the carriage, and they originally wanted to pretend to be ordinary businessmen, but when they saw Liu Jinfeng's eyes, they knew that Liu Jinfeng had recognized them.
Zhao Fengwen couldn't help but sigh, and he didn't plan to cover it up anymore, he quietly looked at Liu Jinfeng, waiting for him to make a move.
However, he didn't expect that Liu Jinfeng only hesitated for a moment, then lowered the curtain, waved his hand, and shouted loudly: "Release!" Then, he turned around and strode away, as if he hadn't seen anything.
All the people in the Zhao family breathed a sigh of relief, no one thought that Liu Jinfeng would let them go so easily. Steward Wang was even more overjoyed, nodded again and again, and immediately waved his horsewhip and drove out of the city.
However, only two carriages of the Zhao family's convoy drove out of the city gate, when a loud voice was heard in the distance: "The eldest prince has a decree, close the city gate immediately!"
Immediately there was a commotion at the gates, and all the people crowded out of the gates, and the soldiers immediately rushed to stop them. Another lieutenant general walked towards Liu Jinfeng and asked anxiously, "General Liu, do you want to close the city gate immediately?"
Liu Jinfeng looked at the Zhao family's convoy that was about to leave the city gate, shook his head, and said, "Don't worry, let's see the holy decree first." ”
The lieutenant hesitated, but did not raise doubts, nodded, and frowned in the direction from which the voice came. I saw a Yulin soldier waving a token in his hand and galloping over.
Of course, the people of the Zhao family also heard the voice of the edict, and without saying a word, the horsewhip was raised, and they rushed out of the city gate at an accelerated pace.
Liu Jinfeng also looked anxiously at the Zhao family's convoy, and when the convoy all drove out of the city gate, he immediately shouted: "Close the city gate! No one is allowed to enter or leave!"
"Yes, General!" the soldiers replied in unison, quickly pushing back the people who were rushing out, and then pushed the heavy city gate "bang", the city gate closed again, and put down the thick and long gate latch made of dark iron.
After leaving the city, the Zhao family's convoy did not take the official road, but drove towards the mountains and forests. In the mountains and forests, everyone changed their costumes and planned to continue on horseback. gave up those ox carts, and only left two carriages, one carriage for Lin Huixin and Zhao Liniang, and one carriage for Wang Xinlian and Tong Xinyan.
Zhao Liniang was worried about her "Flower Language Valley", so she decided to go to the Medicine King Valley with Lin Huixin.
So, Zhao Qingpeng personally drove the carriage, and on the carriage sat Zhao Liniang, Lin Huixin, and the two personal maids beside Lin Huixin. Kapok, Fan Damiang, Cuihuan, Cui Pei and two secret guards followed on both sides of the carriage on horseback, and the group ran towards the Medicine King Valley.
And Dark, together with dozens of secret guards, escorted Zhao Zhengxiang, Wang Xinlian, Ma Huaiyu, Zhao Fengwen, Xing Xirong, Zhao Mingjin, Tong Xinyan, Caijuan, Chen's mother, Cuihu, Cuishan, Steward Wang and Shopkeeper Ji to Lianbi City.
There were brothers from the Shadowless Pavilion along the way, and five days later, when the Zhao family's convoy was about to arrive in Lianbi City, Qi Moqian personally brought three thousand soldiers to greet him.
Zhao Zhengxiang and General Qi have been friends for many years, and Qi Moqian is very respectful and polite to Zhao Zhengxiang and others. Qi Rubao, the city lord of Lianbi City, personally led the city officials to greet him at the gate of Lianbi City, and the people also welcomed him, which was very high-profile and extremely grand.
And when this matter reached Zhou Tianhong's ears, he was even more angry in the court, shouting that he would send troops to attack the Eastern Qi army, teach General Qi a lesson, and send officials from the Criminal Department to arrest Zhao Zhengxiang.
However, Zhou Tianhong just lost his temper and played the emperor's prestige behind closed doors. After all, he is not the emperor yet, and he wants to send troops to attack the Eastern Qi army, such a big thing, without Zhou Changan's will, no one dares to obey his fate, and no one dares to accept this will.
What's more, although Zhao Zhengxiang has resigned many times, Zhou Changan has not agreed, so Zhao Zhengxiang is still the secretary of the Criminal Department.
Now Wu Cheng is in charge of the affairs of the Criminal Department, Wu Cheng has been under Zhao Zhengxiang for many years, he has great respect for Zhao Zhengxiang, and he has always regarded himself as a disciple, so how could he accept Zhou Tianhong's words?
So, after Zhou Tianhong lost his temper, Liu Qingyuan thought that what Zhou Tianhong had just said was angry, and he comforted him a few words, put on a powerful relationship, and admonished: "Your Royal Highness, now that the emperor is seriously ill, the people in the court are unstable, and the people are also panicking. The relationship between the Nanyue Kingdom and our Great Feng Kingdom is so tense, the situation on the side of Xiling Kingdom is still unclear, and the Dongli Kingdom and the Northern Chen Kingdom are also on the side of Her Royal Highness Princess Wan. If we continue to mess with ourselves, the country of this great feudal country will be in jeopardy. ”
Zhou Tianhong looked at Liu Qingyuan and was so angry that he couldn't speak, but what Liu Qingyuan said was true, and it saved Zhou Tianhong's face.
If it was replaced by General Qi, he was afraid that he would snort coldly, and sneered disdainfully: "The old man only asks which army can you send to attack my Eastern Qi army? Who dares to come to Lianbi City to arrest the old man's friend?"
The court was silent, and even Zhou Tianhong's supporters couldn't say anything. Now that Zhao Zhengxiang's family has left, Zhou Tianhong sent someone to Xiling Kingdom to summon His Royal Highness King Ping and Her Royal Highness Princess Wan back, and the people who went out have never returned, and there is no news again. Even the eunuchs who were sent to Feng Nancheng to summon General Zhao back to Beijing disappeared again and again. Even if Zhou Tianhong wanted to send someone to correct the Fa on the spot, no one dared to go, and no one could complete this task at all.
Zhou Tianhong suddenly felt that he, the eldest prince who was ordered to govern, really had no soldiers and no power in his hands, not only was he bound everywhere, but also there was no one to use, and what he said was completely useless, it was really a wretch.
