"Still stunned?" The senior female official lightly touched Lu Zhi's arm and said with a smile: "Niangniang is calling you." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Lu Zhi retracted her gaze and bowed down: "Courtier Lu Zhi, I have seen the queen's mother." ”

"Alright, don't ask for so many courtesies." Empress Xiao smiled and beckoned to her: "Come to the side of the palace, let the palace take a good look at you." ”

Lu Zhi got up, walked slowly towards the upper seat, she walked not in a hurry, every step looked very calm, just came to Queen Xiao's side, Queen Xiao took her hand and looked at it with a smile.

Lu Zhi lowered her eyes slightly, and did not look at Queen Xiao, but she never lowered her head, just stood like this and let her look at it.

Empress Xiao looked at it for a moment, closed her gaze, turned her eyes to the senior female official and said with a smile: "Look, it is really the same as in the portrait, but this bearing is three points worse than the portrait." ”

The senior female official smiled and nodded: "No, the portrait is just a portrait after all, how can it show Miss Lu's appearance in the dust." ”

Empress Xiao smiled and nodded: "This is indeed the reason." ”

After speaking, she turned her eyes to look at Lu Zhi again, and looked at her expression: "You are still the same as when you were a child, and you won't put anything on your face, haven't you ever wondered what the portrait that Bengong said is?" Where does it come from? ”

Hearing this, Lu Zhi raised her eyes and looked at Queen Xiao, but did not answer, but said something that seemed to have nothing to do with it: "The whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister." ”

When Empress Xiao heard this, she immediately smiled: "What a good one, it is not the king's land!" Come, give a seat. ”

The streets of the capital were crowded with people, and although there were soldiers to maintain them, they still could not resist the human affection of the people, and they either looked forward to it, or talked to each other, and all they hoped for was the triumphant person.

Duan Chen rode on the horse without squinting all the way, letting the people on both sides cheer. Although he has been fighting in the bitter cold for many years, it has not affected his appearance at all, but he feels more magnificent.

Wu Yi rode his horse to his side, looking at the boiling voice and frowning slightly: "Since ancient times, the soldiers returned to Beijing in triumph, and they should enter through the Yongding Gate, through the Zhengyang Gate, the Antian Gate, the Lutai Temple, and the Wumen Gate, but we entered the palace from the Desheng Gate and entered the palace through the Di'an Gate." ”

"Not really." Wu Er gritted his teeth: "But Taimiao, Sheji Altar, Your Majesty, what does this mean?!" ”

Duan Chen didn't squint when he heard this, as if he didn't hear their grievances, and said lightly: "Isn't it good?" Desheng Gate is the meaning of victory, and furthermore, entering the palace from the north gate is also less traveling. ”

Wu Yi is still angry: "This virtue is better than Peter'......"

"Alright, you can talk less." Wu Er interrupted him and glanced at Duan Chen, who was not squinting: "If the master says it's good, it's good." ”

Wu Yi glanced at Duan Chen, and sighed helplessly: "Okay, listen to the master." ”

Because of a holy decree, the 100,000 soldiers who returned to Beijing were left outside the capital, and only dozens of cronies followed Duan Chen into Beijing, but these cronies were stopped before they arrived at the palace gate, and it was none other than Fu Changming, the minister of the guards, who stopped them.

Fu Changming rode on horseback in military uniform, looking at these dozens of soldiers who had returned triumphantly and were rewarded for their merits, his mood was very complicated: "Pass on Your Majesty's message, all the soldiers stop!" Duan Chen, the prince of Zhenjiang, came to see him alone! ”

Hearing this order, the soldiers were stunned, and only after half a sound did they realize the meaning of this oracle.

These soldiers fought bloodily in the Northland, born and died, each of them was a bloody man, and when they understood the meaning of the message, they were immediately annoyed, and at that moment some people couldn't help but say angrily: "What does Your Majesty mean? Our soldiers fought bloody battles outside, and 200,000 troops went out to fight, and less than 100,000 returned! It's just that the soldiers are not allowed to enter Beijing for repairs, why can't even a few of us enter the palace to face the saints?! ”

"Yes! Isn't Your Majesty so chilling the hearts of our soldiers! ”

"Your Majesty is a generation of Ming Jun, how can you act like this?!"

Everyone spoke angrily, each with an angry expression, and the scene was about to get out of control.

Fu Changming was also born as a soldier, and he had been fighting for several years, how could he not know their feelings? But what does he know and understand, Emperor Zhengde dictates this, and he, as the minister of the guard, has to act according to orders.

Looking at these angry soldiers, Fu Changming was very worried, he turned his eyes to look at Duan Chen, who was speechless, with a hint of pleading: "Shizi, Your Majesty's dictation is like this, the subordinates can only act according to orders, if they continue to make such a fuss, I am afraid that it will be the soldiers who will suffer." ”

Duan Chen glanced at him, his face was pale, and Fu Changming couldn't help but call again with pleading: "The prince ...... the world."

Duan Chen turned his eyes to look at the palace gate, and slowly raised a hand, as he raised this hand, the soldiers who were originally excited and noisy suddenly fell silent, and everyone held the horse's belly between their legs and pulled the horse's reins, standing tall, and their movements were uniform.

Fu Changming looked at it and couldn't help but marvel in his heart, such an order was forbidden, even the Praetorian Guards could only be amazed.

Duan Chen lowered his arm and said loudly: "All the soldiers listen to the order!" Retreat to the palace gate for three feet! ”

With this order, I saw dozens of soldiers turn their horses' heads together, and the horses' hooves marched to three zhang away to line up simultaneously, no need for a password, no need to lead the army, neatly and neatly.

Fu Changming glanced at the neat dozens of soldiers, and then turned to Duan Chen and said, "Thank you for your understanding, please son!" ”

Duan Chen turned over and dismounted, dressed in a military uniform belt and sword, and walked towards the palace with his head held high.

Fu Changming followed behind him, glanced at the sword at his waist, opened his mouth but didn't say anything, and looked away as if he hadn't seen it.

"The prince of Zhenjiang met ......"

"The prince of Zhenjiang met ......"

With the announcement of the eunuchs, Duan Chen walked into the Taihe Hall step by step, wearing armor, and the sound of metal collision as he walked seemed extremely clear in this empty Taihe Palace.

He came to the hall, took off his helmet and knelt on one knee: "Chen Duanchen, I've seen Your Majesty!" ”

Emperor Zhengde on the dragon chair coughed lightly: "Hurry up." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Duan Chen got up and raised his eyes to look at this tall man, he hadn't lost a lot of weight for many years, his complexion was not as good as when he left Beijing, and his temples were almost completely white.

What is he worried about? When the old disease recurred and his life was not long in coming, who was he still worried about?

Looking at each other, Emperor Zhengde frowned slightly: "The prince has been fighting for many years, and this time he has contributed to the defeat of the Huns." I want to reward you, but I don't know what you want? ”

Hearing this, Duan Chen knelt down again: "Thank Your Majesty for your kindness, but this time you were able to defeat the Huns, and it was not the work of one minister." ”

"I naturally know that it is not your own work, your 100,000 soldiers who came back alive from the Zhenjiang Palace, I will be rewarded later." Emperor Zhengde interrupted him with some impatience: "I'm asking you now, what do you want?!" ”
