Chapter 296: The Post Station Hears the News

When King Teng was planning to lead a large army out of Shuzhong, the four Yudong were on their way from Qingzhou to Runzhou. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The four of them have never been to the Northland, but Yuxiu has walked this road in her previous life, but at that time she was taken by Jin Yuanzong, and her mood is not as happy as it is now.

The further north you go, the flatter the terrain becomes. When you go from Yanshan to Qingzhou, you can still see mountains on the road, and from Qingzhou to Runzhou, you can only see the shadow of Yanshan in the distance on the road, just like the mound of soil on the ground.

There were no towns on this road, and they had encountered caravans heading south on the way, and they were the only ones heading south.

Zhao Quansheng has been to the north, and Yudong four mentioned, this way to the north, only Qingzhou and Runzhou are on the side of the official road, after Runzhou, there is no big city on the side of the official road, only scattered villages and towns.

The weather was hot, and the four of them were not in a hurry, so they simply hurried every morning and evening, and found a place to rest during the hottest day of the day.

In this way, the four of them are very much like an outing, and it is more comfortable.

The three of Yuxiu sat in the carriage and had nothing to do. Yuliang slept for a while and ran out to jump Yudong on the horse, and asked Yudong to take him on horseback for a while.

Yuxiu and Yushu wanted to do some needlework, but the carriage was too bumpy, so they simply took the colored rope out to tie the rope and twist it to pass the time.

Seeing that he was getting closer and closer to Runzhou, he encountered several teams of officers and soldiers who were rushing to Qingzhou in light cars on the road.

Hong Bo said that it may be that the army is changing guards, and Yudong has not seen the officers and soldiers so close, which is very interesting. Pulled Humber and asked a lot about the army.

Yuxiu looked at these officers and soldiers with solemn expressions, and every time they met, they ran in teams. She wanted to inquire, but she didn't meet anyone along the way, and she couldn't inquire about anything.

When staying overnight, someone heard that they had come from Qingzhou, and asked them what was wrong.

After traveling for more than half a day, Yudong happily went to the carriage and said, "There will be a post station after ten miles of walking, so let's just hurry up and stay at the post station tonight, right?"

Yuliang couldn't help cheering, and although Yuxiu and Yushu didn't cheer, they couldn't help laughing.

By the time we arrived at the station, it was dark.

This post station is between Qingzhou and Runzhou, and many houses have been built for pedestrians to stay.

On this hot day, there are not many people going out, and the post house is very empty.

Zhao Quansheng took the name card given by Li Chengyun, and the people at the post station saw that these people were actually holding the name card of King Jing's Mansion, and then asked Yan Erye, who was ordered to enter Beijing by order from Mingzhou, and the post guards were a lot more attentive.

The Yan family can be regarded as a big family, and if they serve well, they will definitely be rewarded with a lot of silver.

Therefore, when they entered the post house, they immediately had a post guard to take care of the carriages and horses, prepare hot tea and hot meals, and give them a clean separate courtyard.

After the post guard brought them tea and dinner, he walked to the courtyard and saw Hong Bozheng coming over, and politely accosted him, "How many of you came out of Qingzhou a few days ago?"

From Qingzhou to their station, there is a distance of four or five days on the road.

"Yes, I've been on the road for seven days, and I didn't dare to rush in broad daylight when it was hot. No, I'm just here now. Hong Bo said and handed over some silver, "It's going to be hard work tonight, so I'm going to rush over all the way, and I'm going to boil more hot water." ”

"Let's just say, your luck is good, this will drag on in Qingzhou for a few days, and you will be allowed to be trapped in the city, and you won't be able to get out. ”

"Can't you get out?" Hong Bo was a little surprised, "Why can't you get out?"

The post guard saw that he didn't know at all, and after he learned the news in the past few days, he couldn't hold back and had nowhere to say, and the conversation started, "How many of you still don't know? It's been a few days since we got here. ”

"In order to prevent the careful work from coming, Qingzhou is under martial law, and it is only allowed to go south, not to the north. ”

No wonder there were no pedestrians except them along the way.

"This ...... Is this going to war?"

"There's going to be a fight. After all these years of peace, the prince of Nateng heard that he had raised hundreds of thousands of troops in Shu, and he was going to fight, hey, it was terrible. I heard that King Teng dared to rebel because Prince Cheng couldn't fight, and no one was his opponent now. ”

"Haven't you heard of it before?"

"If you want to say this, it's all to blame for the short-lived Yan family...... Oh, look at me, I don't mean your master's house. It's Shuzhong, what is the name of a person surnamed Yan Jincheng, his ancestors have been Hanlin, and he has dedicated the will of the first emperor......" The post guard lowered his voice and babbled a lot.

"But there's nothing to worry about, I heard the officers and soldiers passing by say that King Teng's people can't pass Qingzhou City. Their generalissimo, I heard that they are all old men, how can there be young people brave in battle?"

The old man is the generalissimo? Humber immediately thought of the old master.

After the post keeper finished speaking, he took the reward and went out to boil hot water.

Hong Bo hurriedly ran into the hall, walking so quickly that he almost tripped over the threshold.

The four of Yudong were eating, and they saw that Hong Bo's face was a little pale and his steps were unsteady.

Yudong put down his rice bowl and came over to support him, "Uncle Hong, what's wrong?"

"Da Lang Jun, Er Lang Jun, Da Niangzi, Er Niangzi, King Teng...... King Teng is the opposite!"

Humber told him everything he had heard from the post man.

In mid-April, Yan Jincheng found King Teng's mansion in the name of Yan Zhao's descendants and took out the will of the first emperor. In the will, it was written that the first emperor was going to pass on the throne to King Teng, but he was forced by Emperor Wu and had to pass on the throne to Emperor Wu.

In the will, the first emperor wanted King Teng to avenge himself and kill Li Shixun, a rebel.

King Teng knew that the first emperor was killed by Emperor Wu, and he was filled with righteous indignation, and swore an oath five days ago, vowing to raise troops and go straight to the capital to avenge the first emperor.

He exhausted the young and strong in Shu, claiming to have an army of 500,000. He led the army to go east along the Lanjiang River by boat, and after waiting for the shore in Yanshan, he planned to take Qingzhou to the north.

"Uncle Hong, is this true?" Yuxiu couldn't believe King Teng's rebellion.

In his previous life, King Teng did not rebel. At the beginning of this year, King Teng, like in his previous life, sent three sons to Beijing. And among these three sons, there is the little emperor who succeeded to the throne in the previous life - Li Xin.

Why did all of a sudden, the news of King Teng's rebellion came?

And the source of the rebellion was actually Yan Jincheng's holy decree!

In the name of unfilial piety, they have written to the county government and expelled Yan Jincheng from the clan.

But when they heard this name at first glance, they couldn't help but be shocked, they rebelled, and they wanted to kill the Nine Clans! Even if they made arrangements to leave the clan, if Emperor Wu became angry without saying anything, they would still be implicated.

The post guard said that the imperial court had issued an edict, saying that Yan Jincheng was faint and deceived the world. After Hong Bo finished speaking, he looked at Yudong with his eyes blank, lowered his voice and said, "Da Langjun, I heard that the commander of King Teng's army is surnamed Hong, and his name is Hong Dian!"
