In May, Liaodi is a great spring scene, but the capital has already stepped into the summer with one foot, Fangfei has been Xie Qingxing, and the weather is getting hotter and hotter.

On this day, as soon as the Desheng Gate in the northwest of the capital was opened, more than a dozen horsemen and horses ran out of the city, all of them were dressed in brocade horses, young and young, full of vigor and heroics...... The proper sentence 'people are like tigers, horses are like dragons'!

It happened that Zhao Heihu, the commander of the Nine Gates, went to Deshengmen to inspect, and when he saw this situation, he was inevitably a little vigilant, and someone rushed to the door as soon as the city gate opened, in case it was to do a case in the city......

"Someone! ......" Zhao Heihu shouted in a low voice, and was about to order someone to let go of the horse to block, when an indigo-robed young man led by him suddenly took the reins of the horse, and the horse let out a long neigh, which happened to be five or six steps not far from Zhao Heihu.

Zhao Heihu was slightly stunned, the young man had already turned over and dismounted, bowed down and said: "The kid returned to Beijing because of his family's visit to relatives, and he was anxious to go out of the city to greet him, but I didn't expect that Lord Zhao was here, and he almost collided, and I hope Lord Zhao will be forgiving!" ”

Just now there were people on the horse, and everyone was crowded, and when the city gate was just opened, the sky was not bright, and the light was not good, Zhao Heihu only saw a group of people in fresh clothes and angry horses, and they were full of energy, but they really didn't recognize which family it was.

At this time, people got off the horse and came to the front to bow and salute, Zhao Heihu looked at it, couldn't help laughing, and hurriedly stepped forward to reach out to support the young man, and held the young man up, haha laughed: "I just said that it was such a tiger, it turned out to be the eldest prince...... Haha, sure enough, it's a tiger father without a dog, a young hero! ”

"Lord Zhao has won the award, where can the boy be a scholar who deserves such a reputation......" The eldest son of the Marquis of Jingbei, that is, Lin Xiaoru, the eldest son of the eldest princess of Anning, smiled slightly, greeted a few words, then took a step back, and said again, "Lord Zhao, the kid is in a hurry to leave the city today, I don't have time to apologize to you, when the kid comes back, he will definitely set up delicious food and wine to apologize to Lord Zhao!" ”

"Haha, since you have something important, don't delay here, go quickly! Another day, you don't need to post a post, Lao Zhao and I will come to the door by myself, you just need to move the wine sealed by Ling Zun out of the two jars! ”

"Hehe, since Lord Zhao said this, how could the kid not be? Then it's a word, the kid cooks wine and waits, waiting for Lord Zhao to arrive! Lord Zhao, the kid farewell! ”

"Farewell, farewell!"

The two parties hugged their fists and resigned, Lin Xiaoru took a companion as an entourage, and after recognizing and stepping on the horse again, he agreed with Zhao Heihu slightly, and then straightened the horse's head and went out of the city gate.

Seeing that this group of people walked out of the city gate for dozens of steps, they drove the horses to run again, and the sound of horses' hooves rolled up a puff of smoke and dust, and ran far away, Zhao Heihu retracted his gaze and ordered the general flag on duty at Deshengmen, and also took the horse brought by the entourage and got on the horse.

The soldiers guarding the city were without the big tiger, and immediately relaxed, and shrank to both sides of the city gate with their respective things in their arms, found a shelter from the wind, and started a gossip against the city wall.

"Hey, I said, who is it just now, why did Zhao Laohu laugh like that...... I saw it once a while ago, and he smiled when he saw the uncle of the dynasty! A recruit with a tender face is obviously not experienced enough, and when he saw the scene just now, he was inevitably a little surprised and confused.

A wrinkled veteran next to him, squinting at him, for a while, the little soldier begged for a long time, and then pretended to knock the little soldier and said, "Let you not help but look at it when you encounter trouble, and think about it with your heart......"

As he spoke, he poked his head out of the shelter and looked around, making sure that there was no one around, then he retracted, lowered his voice, and said mysteriously: "Do you know whose person that black tiger is?" ”

Several soldiers shook their heads in unison, and then, one of the soldiers hesitated and said: "I heard that those who can enter the Yamen of the Nine Gates Admiral must be the real henchman!" ”

As he spoke, the soldier clenched his fists and arched his hand in the direction of the imperial city, and everyone understood what he was referring to.

The veteran looked at him and smiled, nodded and said, "What you said is not bad, but it is not very accurate...... This tiger is naturally not bad at that person's henchman, but it is also a loyal subordinate of one person, from the north to the capital, from a border army to the current dignitary Jiumen Admiral, step by step, but he has never changed his original intention...... That master's name, I guess you also have something in mind, right? ”

This time, it was the little soldier who reacted the fastest, and his eyes lit up and said, "The northern border army...... What you said, but our Ming Dynasty's first foreign surname prince, the king of Jingbei who expanded his territory and established a prestigious name? ”

The veteran shouldn't be either, just a slight smile. Others, however, were already stunned.

It's not, speaking of which, there are few people in their eyes, but when it comes to the king of Jingbei who pacified Beirong and expanded the territory, there is no one who does not sincerely admire and respect! That is the hero of the Ming Dynasty, and it is also the god of war in the hearts of all Ming soldiers! Thou shalt not be insulted, thou shalt not blasphemy!

"Oh, it turned out to be the eldest son of King Jingbei...... No wonder! The little soldier sighed with envy on his face.

The old soldier smiled again and said, "You are wrong again...... That son is not bad from the Jingbei Palace, but he is not the eldest son of the King of Jingbei! The prince of Jingbei was married in the twenty-sixth year of Jingshun, and when he went south to Pingman in the second year, he had the eldest son, and at this time, the eldest son of the king of Jingbei was only eight years old! ”

"But I know the allusion to this." The soldier who had just spoken out smiled, "This is the son brought by Princess An Ning, surnamed Lin, who can only be called the eldest son of the Jingbei Palace, but not the eldest son of the King of Jingbei!" Yes and no? ”

"Ah, King Jingbei and other characters actually married a widow and brought a child...... "Xiaobing is young and unfamiliar with this old year's public case, so he will inevitably be surprised when he hears it!"

"Hey, don't just see other people's widows remarry, that one is not simple, with his own ability, he was awarded the first princess with a foreign surname, such an honor and respect, not to mention a civilian woman with a foreign surname, that is, a noble daughter of the clan, a high-ranking lady, and there is no one who is not!"

Seeing that the little soldier was still not convinced, the veteran still wanted to argue, raised his hand and grabbed the little soldier's arm, patted him on the shoulder that was still too thin and said: "Young and inexperienced, the most important thing in case of trouble is not to be in a hurry." ”

When the little soldier puffed out his mouth and reluctantly quieted down, the veteran sighed and said: "Speaking of which, that one can't help but have a foreign surname, and he was just the daughter of a Zhuang family, married to a civilian village man and had children...... If it weren't for the later events, it would have been like this husband and son for a lifetime, and no one would have imagined that the village Han was conscripted and went to the north to transport grain and grass for the border army, and he never looked back. The woman with her young children waited so hard for such bad news that she almost lost her life in a serious illness. After recovering from a serious illness, he actually opened his mind, went up the mountain to dig medicine and make medicine, steamed wine and made soap, and gradually earned a huge family business...... If it was just like this, it would only be on the rich side, but the woman made meritorious deeds several times and saved King Jingbei twice...... At that time, the king of Jingbei had not yet been crowned king, and he was only a young hero of the general of Jingbei...... Later, there was a major epidemic in the Qinghe area of Huixian County, and there were many dead households, and it was not uncommon for a village to have no mouthful...... Under such circumstances, the yamen in various places had to use soldiers to blockade various places to prevent the spread of the epidemic...... In that case, today's Princess An Ning was nothing at that time, just a weak woman who had just accumulated some family resources. It's a weak woman, who only brought a mother-in-law and a guard, and then entered the epidemic area......"

"Ah......" Everyone was shocked, especially the little soldier, whose face turned pale with nervousness, and pulled the old soldier's sleeve and asked, "After that?" So what did the princess do in the epidemic area? ”

"The reason why the princess sells medicine is because she has learned some medical skills before and has a medical secret book in her hand...... This time I entered the epidemic area, which is the prevention and treatment of the epidemic...... Countless Langzhong doctors were helpless with the plague and poison, but they were really restrained by the princess, and the princess entered Qinghe County for more than a month, and there were no dead people in Qinghe. Subsequently, the princess entered Pi County...... She also offered the prescription for curing the plague without reservation, so that the imperial physician sent by the imperial court and the local Langzhong could use it to control the plague in Huixian and several southern counties...... After that scene, there were countless living people, and the court rewarded her with meritorious deeds and awarded her the title of a third-grade lady...... Married into the capital Qin State Mansion, called Mrs. Jingbei Hou, the princess offered three kinds of Jiahe from overseas...... Anything else is far away from us, but if we don't have the corn, sweet potatoes, and potatoes, how can we people have a full meal......

The veteran soldier told the legend with a solemn face, the legend that could almost be called unprecedented, the life story of the strange woman, the little soldier, and a few other soldiers, whether they had heard of it before or knew nothing, they all listened to it with great devotion, and no one remembered the woman's 'widow' identity anymore, some just sighed and admired, and some only sighed and admired......

Not to mention how these soldiers were, but also to say that Lin Xiaoru took a cadre of people out of the capital, Pegasus went all the way to the northwest to meet out, went straight to a hundred and ten miles, and went north to the capital to go out of the customs After all, a town Guanting Town, because most of the customs officials stopped here and stationed in the sedan chair and got its name. After here, walk more than 100 miles, is the endless pass ancient wall, and then pass the pass, it is the place outside the pass. Lin Xiaoru got the letter, yesterday Man'er followed Chengzi to the pass to stay, and this morning he looked at the capital...... Look at the sky, it is almost noon, they have been running for a long time, people are sleepy, and they should rest and eat. Chengzi and Man'er and their entourage, it is estimated that they will be there soon, they order good food, just waiting for the two of them to arrive and eat together!

Thinking of that eccentric girl, Lin Xiaoru's face involuntarily flashed a doting look.

The little girl is wild, she has been going for nearly a year, and she hasn't even returned to Beijing for the New Year, this time somehow, she is willing to come back with Chengzi!

"Hey, Xiaoru, it's still early, why don't we go ahead and greet you!" A man in his early twenties next to him looked eagerly at the end of the official road and tried his best to persuade him.

Without waiting for Lin Xiaoru to speak, the young man on the other side smiled and said, "Hehe, he is anxious every day, so naturally he can't wait...... Not...... Hmmm......"
