After a month of stationing, everything was done, and the holy car set off to return to Beijing. At this point, the ministers understood that the so-called Northern Tour was actually for the Northern Expedition. But anyway, there was a big victory, and the ministers all looked like they had already known that the emperor was going to the north, and they were going to crusade against Zeng Xian, and the emperor would definitely win a big victory.

The army returned to the division, and where it passed along the way, the magistrate greeted him fifty miles. However, Zhou Heng often did not meet them, but sent people to secretly investigate their various behaviors like going north, and if they encountered those who were corrupt and bent the law, they would be dealt with by Yousi.

And Cui Keyin is much easier. This ease of relief is not to say that she used to have a lot of things to do, or how busy she used to be, and now she is relaxed. This kind of relaxation is heartfelt, as Zhou Heng's pillow person, when the army goes north, she is the only one who knows the purpose of going north and what the army is going to do. After the change of Sheephorn Fort, everyone felt that the Tatars and Zeng Xian were invincible, although they were defeated and fled by the 200,000 miscellaneous troops led by Zhou Heng under the capital, but Zhou Heng relied on the fortified city to hold on, and even used cannons.

This time the labor division went on an expedition, but it was necessary to fight encounters and field battles with the Tatar iron cavalry, there was no fortified city, and I did not know where to find the enemy, so I had to face the Tatar iron cavalry flying head-on. In such a battle, there is no chance of victory at all. Cui Keyin knew that Zhou Heng had been fighting hard for more than a year, and for this day, she could only stand beside him and fight side by side with him. This kind of invisible pressure is not something that ordinary people can afford.

Moreover, she also had to cooperate with Zhou Heng and pretend to travel along the way. The love between the two is naturally true, but it is also true to confuse the enemy, and even the ministers. The ministers were unknowingly tied to Zhou Heng's chariot, and it was not until Zhou Heng released the bait of 200,000 stone grain to attract Zeng Xian, and the generals did not understand that Zhou Heng wanted to use troops against the Tatars. But during the more than a month of marching, Cui Keyin has been cooperating with Zhou Heng in acting, bearing the notoriety of confusing the emperor.

These, with the arrival of the great victory, are all over. Some courtiers even wrote to praise the emperor for strategizing and winning a decisive victory thousands of miles away. He said that he was the reincarnation of Emperor Qin and Han Wu. didn't mention Cui Keyin, the queen, at all, as if everything she did should be.

All right. She doesn't want the praise of the courtiers, as long as the husband is happy and the child grows up healthy and healthy.

Cui Keyin relaxed, adjusted her mentality, and sometimes confronted Zhou Heng along the way. Sometimes in the same car with Shen Mingzhu, there is talk and laughter.

When I went out of Beijing in spring, it was now the harsh winter season, and the charcoal basin in the car was burning vigorously, Shen Mingzhu said: "How do I feel that the road back to Beijing is much shorter than when I went out of Beijing?" Aren't we on the same path? ”

Cui Keyin smiled: "Of course it's not the same road." We went north from Luoyang, but now we are back to the capital. ”

While speaking, Huanxi stopped the car and saluted outside the car: "The emperor invites the mother to change her clothes and pay a private visit together." ”

After the battle was over, Zhou Heng's mood was relaxed. Whenever I go to a place, I often take Cui Keyin into the city to see it. The army was stationed outside the city.

Cui Keyin asked, only to know that he had arrived in Shijiazhuang.

Shen Mingzhu returned to his carriage, Cui Keyin changed into men's clothes, and Zhou Heng also came over. The two got into a nondescript horse-drawn carriage and drove into the city, stopping in front of a three-story restaurant.

Xiao Er greeted customers in front of the store, and just welcomed the three nobles who got down from the luxury carriage into the restaurant, and when he came out, he saw an ordinary carriage parked at the foot of the steps. Although the eight guards on the side of the car were all extraordinary, some of their temples were bulging high. Some of them bulged out under their cloaks, as if they were carrying weapons, but the carriage was so inconspicuous that he naturally despised it.

If it's a guest. Before the carriage had stopped, he had already stepped forward and bowed to make contact. At this moment, he stood still, just staring coldly. I saw a tall guard open the curtain, put down the pedal, and got out of the car a ten-year-old boy who was so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off it. The boy helped a fairy-like seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl from the car.

Xiao Er said "Huh" lightly, but he didn't expect the men and women who got out of the ordinary carriage to look very good.

"Guest officer, please." Xiao Er changed his smiling face. stepped forward and bowed, and said: "There are still some vacant seats on the first floor of the shop, the second floor is now reserved by distinguished guests, and the third floor is a private room, which floor do you always want to go up to eat?" ”

Hua Shixun is the commander of the forbidden army, and before he made a move in the distant mountains, he pulled the little second who grabbed it away, and said with a cold face: "The third floor." ”

Xiao Er was dialed around three or four times before stopping, only to turn dizzy, jumping to his feet and saying, "Why are you so rude?" ”

If it weren't for the handsome men and women, like fairy-like figures, just such a broken carriage, wouldn't he rarely step forward to take the ballast?

Zhou Heng took Cui Keyin's hand, ignored the dispute between Hua Shixun and the bartender, and walked straight to the door.

The entrance path is winding and quiet, and the seats are hidden in the middle of various flowers and trees, but it is also quiet. There is a high platform in the middle, and the sound of silk and bamboo on the stage is endless, and two girls in revealing clothes are singing small songs, which attract a burst of applause from time to time.

Zhou Heng swept around and saw that there were five or six seats. It's daytime, and fifty or sixty percent of the seats are considered good business.

When the bartender saw someone coming in, although he wondered why Xiao Er didn't come in, he still came up and saluted: "Do you want to listen to songs on the first floor or go up to the third floor to drink." ”

Zhou Heng said lightly: "It's too noisy here, let's go up to the third floor." ”

The bartender glanced at Zhou Heng's body was pitch black without a trace of impurities, and he didn't know what kind of cloak made of fur, thinking that if the wine was not enough, this cloak would be enough to cover the wine money, so he restrained his hands and said, "Come with me." ”

The handrails of the staircase are made of rosewood, the workmanship is fine, and on each platform hangs a picture of a beautiful woman with her breasts exposed, and it is difficult to say that this is not a place for pleasure. Cui Keyin glanced at it and frowned.

Zhou Heng saw it in his eyes and deliberately asked the bartender: "Is there a clean room on the third floor?" ”

The bartender glanced at Cui Keyin along his eyes, thinking that such a beautiful woman was really hard to find, and couldn't help but glance at Cui Keyin again.

Zhou Heng was furious.

The bartender was about to open his mouth to answer when he suddenly felt the temperature plummet and couldn't help but sneeze.

Zhou Heng didn't want to listen to him anymore, so he took Cui Keyin's hand and went upstairs.

The passage on the third floor was covered with a thick carpet, and people walked on it without sound, the doors on both sides were closed, and there was a faint sound of laughter in some rooms.

Cui Keyin said in a low voice: "What kind of place is this?" ”

If you want to say that this is a restaurant, she won't believe it.

Zhou Heng gritted his teeth and said, "Wait for the distant mountains to come up and see how I clean him up." ”

Who told him to find such a place? He also said that he would definitely be able to enjoy the best scenery, I really don't know what he was thinking in his head, what kind of beauty is there in such a place? (To be continued.) )
