On Chinese New Year's Eve, Zhoujia Village, forty miles outside the capital. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Taking advantage of the hustle and bustle of the continuous sound of firecrackers, Li Yuanche and a few people quietly infiltrated the team entering Beijing.

In the main tent in the line, as soon as Li Yuanche appeared, the shadow guard gray San changed out of the main general's outfit and retreated to the shadows.

"Please come here, Mr. Fushiyama and the others." Li Yuanche commanded while changing out of his night clothes.

After a while, Mr. Fushan, together with Zhou Ping, Zhao Lin and others, hurried over.

"Lord, you're back, and the road is going well?" Although Zhao Lin didn't know where the master who grew up with him had gone, he couldn't help but care when he saw that Li Yuanche's face was full of exhaustion.

"Well, things are going well." Thinking that the woman finally nodded and agreed to give each other a chance to get along and get to know each other, the corners of Li Yuanche's mouth rose, "How are things going here?" ”

"This afternoon, the people from the Ministry of Rites and Dali Temple have come, and the arrangements for entering the city tomorrow have been determined."

"The army set out at three o'clock, arrived at the north gate of the capital at three o'clock, and the officials of the Ministry of Rites received the barbarian prince and his party first, and told them the rules of the court. At the right time, His Majesty will lead the civil and military officials to celebrate the New Year with the people on the tower of Xuanwu Gate, and then we will escort the barbarian prince and his party to Xuanwu Gate in front of the people of the city. ”

"yes, got it." Li Yuanche nodded, "What is the imperial court going to do with the soldiers we brought back from Northern Xinjiang this time?" ”

Li Yuanche returned to Beijing this time, and in order for the prince of the barbarian tribe to enter Beijing smoothly and without fail, he brought a total of 5,000 elites from northern Xinjiang to accompany him. And the total number of Gyeonggi guards was only 50,000 Imperial Forest Army. Besides, those Royal Forest Soldiers who have never been on the battlefield, although they look majestic, how can they compare with these good sons who have struggled out of the dead on the battlefield that they have brought.

I'm afraid the imperial court won't let it go, and it won't dare to let its own team enter the city like this.

"The official letter from the Ministry of War was issued yesterday," Mr. Fushiyama said, his face a little heavy. "You are only allowed to bring two hundred guards into Beijing with you, and all long-range weapons such as bows and crossbows must be disarmed."

"The rest of the soldiers, after requesting the disarming of weapons, will all return to their hometowns, and the military department will issue travel expenses."

Returning to your hometown? A gleam flashed in Li Yuanche's eyes. These 5,000 soldiers are all elites selected from the front line in northern Xinjiang, and each of them can be ten at a time, and if they are placed on the front line, they can completely defend a city. Now that the imperial court has let them all return to their hometowns, it seems that the imperial court has taken precautions against their Li family.

"It's better to go back to your hometown." Li Yuanche sneered, since the imperial court was not worried about his Li family, then he would make a good show for the imperial court.

"Lord, how can this be?" Zhao Lin snorted, "These five thousand sons are all the elite of the lineage that we brought out from Taiyuan." ”

"What are you anxious about, since the Lord said so, it naturally has the Lord's intentions." Zhou Ping opened his mouth to interrupt Zhao Lin's shouting.

"Rumor Li Biao will come over." This Li Bi general is the defender who was besieged in Valenburg, and since the battle of Valenburg was rescued by Li Yuanche, this person swore to follow Li Yuanche to the death.

…………………………………………………………………

On the first day of the first lunar month, early in the morning, all the people in the capital flocked to the front of Xuanwu Gate, wanting to seize a good position as soon as possible.

The reason why there is such a scene of thousands of empty alleys is because today His Majesty the Emperor will bring hundreds of civil and military officials to the gatehouse of Xuanwu Gate to celebrate the New Year with the people. Moreover, news came a few days ago that at this year's court, the second prince of the barbarian clan will also pay homage to His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty.

In recent years, the barbarians have often infested the border gates, and although everyone has talked about it, they have never seen anyone from the barbarians. The people of the capital who have never been to the northern Xinjiang want to take advantage of today's opportunity to take a good look at the fierce appearance of this barbarian people.

As soon as the time arrived, with the sound of the whip of the opening of the road, the people under the Xuanwu Gate knelt down one after another. In the sound of "Long live Your Majesty", Emperor Qing and a cadre of court officials ascended the gatehouse of Xuanwu Gate.

"Get up," Emperor Qing, dressed in a golden dragon robe, looked peaceful, "Today is the New Year, and I will celebrate the New Year with everyone." ”

"I wish my Dajin a smooth season and happiness for the people!"

"Long live Your Majesty!" The people fell to their knees again, and the shouts of the mountains and tsunamams spread far away.

At this time, Li Yuanche and his entourage escorted the barbarian prince to the Xuanwu Gate.

"Minister, the prince of Tang Guo, Li Yuanche, see Your Majesty." Li Yuanche, who was dressed in silver armor, knelt on one knee.

"Li Aiqing, hurry up and excuse me." Emperor Qing stretched out his hand, as if he had a false hand. "Aiqing has worked hard to protect her family and defend the country on the frontier. I am comforted. ”

When the people under the city gate heard that this was the young general who had angrily beheaded the enemy, they turned their heads to look at him.

Li Yuanche slowly stood up, his posture straight. In the early morning glow, the silver armor reflected a little golden light, setting off his already resolute face even more powerful.

"Li Aiqing, where is the barbarian prince?"

Li Yuanche turned around and glanced behind him. Several guards escorted one person and rode over. The one sitting right away was none other than the second prince of the barbarians, Anton Zan.

"Anton Zan meets His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty." Antonzan, dressed in a strange suit, did not kneel, but only crossed his hands in front of his chest and bent down to salute. Before entering the city, they had repeatedly told this barbarian prince that when he visited His Majesty, he must kneel down and salute, but this person promised well at that time, but at this time, he put everyone together.

Emperor Qing was a little dissatisfied in his heart, but he was just a prisoner under the ranks, and he dared to be so presumptuous, but he smiled on his face, "The prince came from afar, and he worked hard." I have already prepared a reception banquet in the palace to wash the dust for the prince. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Anton Zan saluted again, and was taken down by the officials of the Ministry of Rites.

Next, the officials of the Ministry of Rites read out a memorial to the heavens, and those profound sentences made ordinary people feel like falling into the clouds and looking dazed. Not long after, the cabinet announced some tax cuts this year, and the people came back to their senses and cheered. The New Year's greetings ended with the cheers of ordinary people.

Li Yuanche looked at the people who were scattered in all directions, and frequently looked back at themselves, nodded with a smile, then turned over and followed the officials of the Ministry of Rites to the newly built Tang State Mansion.

Coming to the mansion of Tang Guogong not far from the palace, Li Yuanche just looked at the people kneeling behind the gate, and went straight to the inner courtyard. In this house, I don't know how many other people's eyeliner there are! Don't worry, since I have entered Beijing, I naturally have time to rectify this "home". When he came to the inner room, he hurriedly looked at it a few times, then took off his armor, changed into a regular robe, and headed for the palace.
