Probably due to the influence of the Xiaoice River period, even in Fengyang Mansion a little south, the sky was gray, cold and damp.

Fengyang, outside the large-scale central capital, ushered in a grand occasion that had not been seen for a long time.

I heard that the Emperor of the Apocalypse was coming to Fengyang to worship the imperial tomb, and the dignitaries, scholars, merchants, and local civil officials and military generals in the world all arrived in advance and waited for the royal driver.

As the date of the emperor's arrival in Fengyang was approaching, the land around the route planned by the government was also turned over several times.

Rich masters, if they want to get close to the ruling group around the emperor and show their faces in front of them, they naturally have their own good ways.

The gentry and landlords rushed to Fengyang in advance and spent a lot of money to rent houses from ordinary people and small traders and hawkers on the roadside, and some of them were more wealthy, and directly bought a whole piece of land.

Since many people think so, many vassals are elegant, and the big foreigners who want to see the emperor's true face are also generous, so that the rent along the way has risen.

In a day's work, I turned several times.

Zhu Youxiao didn't expect that his trip down by himself would have such a significant effect on the economy along the way, and also made a group of poor people rich.

This is really, "unintentional fault"!

Some merchants were smarter, they befriended the local magnates in Fengyang, and they rented plots of land on the riverside side of the river, set up seats along the way, and set prices according to the number of seats and the distance between the front and back.

The seat closest to the emperor and his entourage often cost a high price of two pieces of silver, which was specially prepared for the children of large families.

Even some of the seats in the back are worth two or three thousand wen.

In such a situation, many originally poor people made a small fortune.

The small merchants and vendors rented out their stalls, and took advantage of the fact that the houses in other places near Fengyang were far below the market price, so they bought other houses and opened small shops.

With the bright yellow flags unfurled, the horses' hooves were in the distance, but it was the brave guard battalion in front of the Emperor of the Apocalypse who arrived first.

These cavalrymen were all sharp soldiers who had accompanied the emperor to the southwest, wearing eight-petal pointed hats and helmets on their heads, and the sabers hanging from their waists were also cold and light.

The most surprising thing is the stainless steel cavalry spear and three-eyed eye gun they carry on their backs, which can be described as fully armed.

This group of 2,000 cavalry troops, led by one of the generals, is Liu Yuanbin, the right-hand man of Chen Ce, the general of the Yongwei Battalion.

Perhaps because of the years of horse running practice, Liu Yuanbin's face looked darker than the last time he appeared in the Southwest War, but his expression added a bit of perseverance.

His appearance attracted many young and young girls.

Looking at the age, Liu Yuanbin is in his twenties, and many students at this time are still studying hard and have never achieved any fame.

But Liu Yuanbin, who has commanded 2,000 cavalry alone, has already made military exploits in the Southwest War, and he is also on the list of the list that proclaims the world.

At a young age, Liu Yuanbin was already an indispensable general of the cavalry team of the Imperial Brave Guard Battalion, and as a descendant of the emperor, his future was even more limitless.

Young and promising, good-looking, and not yet married, which young woman can not like it?

In the crowd, many students, seeing that Liu Yuanbin was the same age as them, but the status gap was so huge, they all clenched their fists and cursed secretly:

"Martial arts vulgar."

Out of indignation and jealousy, a certain student also said this sentence with the crowd, and no one spoke nearby at that time, and it happened to be heard by Liu Yuanbin, who was passing by.

Liu Yuanbin immediately looked at this person, and when he saw him dressed as a scribe, he knew that it was those who boasted of being high, and asked:

"What did you say?"

After he finished asking, the remaining few generals of the cavalry of the Yongwei Battalion looked sideways, turned their horses over, and saw these murderous generals, and the soldier was stunned.

He was silent for a long time, his face turned pale, and he did not say another word.

Liu Yuanbin turned around and saw that the infantry of the rear team of the Yongwei battalion was about to arrive, so he didn't say anything more to him, sneered, turned around and shouted:

"Team, forward!"

Under an order, the cavalry team of more than 2,000 people was rearranged into two columns, walked in front of the infantry army, carried the bright yellow flag, and slowly entered Fengyang City.

And the gentleman, listening to the sound of horses' hooves echoing in his ears, and then looking at the cavalrymen of his Yongwei battalion who were passing by, their legs were weak, and they almost fell backwards.

The sound of footsteps, galloping like thunder, an elite division, guarding the man in bright yellow armor in the middle, appeared in front of everyone.

Compared with the previous young general Liu Yuanbin, the Emperor of the Apocalypse is obviously younger.

Zhu Youxiao was dressed in bright yellow armor, and he carried the sword that was taken from the warm pavilion of the Qianqing Palace and accompanied him to pacify the southwest Zhuyi.

Chen Ce and Qi Jin, the generals of the brave guard battalion, were closely guarded on the left and right sides of Zhu Youxiao, and closely followed by Huang Degong, Sun Yingyuan, and Zhou Yuji, young generals who stood out with their achievements in the southwest.

The infantry of the Yongwei Battalion, all of whom were veterans selected from the three major battalions and the Beijing Army, quickly held their sabers and replaced the local officials, lining up on both sides along the way to keep the onlookers out.

If it is said that when facing Liu Yuanbin, those young scholars are still a little jealous, then in the face of Zhu Youxiao, they are completely unable to raise their anger.

No matter how young he is, he is also the Son of Heaven, the emperor of today.

Zhu Youxiao came to Fengyang, and none of the local officials were not frightened, and the older the official, the more powerful he was before, and now the more scared he is to death.

They were waiting for the royal driver at the south gate, nodding their heads on their faces, but their hearts were overturned.

Liu Chao, the eunuch guarding the imperial tomb, also came to greet him this time.

He is Wei Zhongxian's godson, and when Wang An's belly eunuch Wei Chao and Wei Zhongxian couldn't fight the law, he was assigned to the imperial mausoleum.

Liu Chao first refused to give Wei Dynasty food, wanting to starve Wei Dynasty to death and torture him, but a few days later, Wei Dynasty was still able to live by gnawing on turf and living tenaciously.

Liu Chao completely lost patience, on the other hand, he also felt that he could not delay any longer, and it was inevitable that things would change over time, after all, Wang An had not fallen at that time, and his power was not small.

So he didn't play any tricks, and directly strangled the Wei Dynasty to death in the imperial mausoleum.

Originally, in the area of Fengyang, the emperor was far away, and as the garrison eunuch of the imperial tomb, Liu Chao also had a high status, and dealt with many defeated opponents for Wei Zhongxian.

Now that the emperor is coming to Fengyang to worship the imperial mausoleum, although Liu Chao got the news in advance and has been prepared, he is still a thief after all.

Like him, Feng Yangwei's commander Meng Ran was also weak-hearted.

As the commander of Fengyangwei, he is in charge of the imperial mausoleum prison, and the people that Liu Chao has dealt with for Wei Zhongxian over the years have also been sent to the imperial mausoleum by him.

That strangulation of the Wei Dynasty was that in order to show goodwill to the garrison eunuch Liu Chao, he took the towering tree of Wei Zhongxian, offered it, and then sent someone to do it.

In addition to these two people, the civil officials in the Fengyang area, in addition to the eunuchs, the rest of the large number of people are also sweeping the snow in front of the door, and everyone has something to do.

In the past, no one cared, but now that the emperor himself has come down, can he not panic?
