In March, the weather in the north is still a little cold, but the spring breeze is gradually rising, and it is much warmer.

On this day, the sky is clear, on the gallop road leading to Zhuo County, Hebei, a line of carriages and horses come in a row, and Jinyang City is already faintly in sight.

In the team, Liu Bin, a member of the Zhongshu House who was riding on a horse, was a little sluggish.

No way, not to mention the fatigue all the way, the mood is also quite gloomy, this trip to Jinyang, in his opinion, is not a good thing, Li Ding'an is a murderer, ruthless...... Well, everyone in Hebei and Shandong will be dwarfed.

It's not, don't talk about anything else, just say that you can move the people of Youzhou to Jindi, where can someone with a slightly softer heart do it?

When the envoy comes to such a person, his life is not his own.

Moreover, Empress Xiao was welcomed back to Jinyang by Li Ding'an, and when everyone in Hebei and Shandong talked about this queen, most of them smiled obscenely, and then coveted the queen's beauty.

But it was in their own place, and they could say whatever they wanted, but once they appeared in front of Queen Xiao now...... Liu Bin imagined it, but there was a faint chill behind him, and he felt that his own life was even more suspenseful.

At this time, he was also full of complaints, thinking that he Liu Bin had been fighting with the emperor in the south and north for many years, and his achievements were no worse than those of Tong Guangshou and others, but now he was sent to Jindi, no matter how you look at it, it looks like he came to die......

The Supreme doesn't miss the old feelings, I heard that it was Pei Ju's slander that the dog thief entered, he didn't do anything to the surname Pei on weekdays, and he was respectful, and often treated him with a teacher's courtesy, but Pei Ju was like this to him, his mother, if the envoy could survive this time, he would definitely make Pei Hong look good.

Well, this Liu Zhongshu's belly is not too big, and it is actually a bit inappropriate as an envoy, because he has never walked out of Hebei and Shandong, and he is not a disciple of the gate valve, so he has no acquaintances in the outside world, so he is not competent for the functions of some envoys.

Just like he thought, let alone welcoming back Empress Xiao, whether his own life can be saved or not depends on the will of God.

But as one of Dou Jiande's most relied on advisers, if he is even worse than Dugu Huaien, it is also wronged, just like now, although he is full of complaints, he still puts on his official uniform neatly and tries to sit up straight on the horse, because he knows that the person who welcomes them into Jinyang may appear at any time.

The first time he took a face-to-face meeting, he needed to leave the other party with an impression of not being afraid or arrogant, and then he could not speak, and welcoming back Empress Xiao was basically an impossible task, so he could only retreat and marry Li Ding'an, the main thing was done, and after he went back, he would not fail in his mission.

Thinking of this, he settled down, turned his head and looked around, looking at the Jindi cavalry who were cruising back and forth near the left of the team, and thought with envy again, if there is such a cavalry army on the side, what should Wang Shichong be afraid of? The counties of Hebei and Shandong may have been trampled under their feet a long time ago.

The terrifying thing about the Daizhou Iron Cavalry, they have already learned it, and since they crossed Taihang and appeared on the ground of Jindi, the Jindi Rangers have appeared near them.

After that, they didn't need to send people out by themselves, pass the horses, and the guards followed all the way, and there were two groups in the middle, all of which were cavalrymen wearing half-body armor, with strong bodies and skilled horsemanship, so that Liu Bin and others had a better understanding of the Daizhou cavalry.

On the way, I talked to a few cavalry generals who led the troops, and only one guy who looked obviously Turkic had a bigger mouth and said a few words to him.

The year before last, Li Ding'an led his troops to the north, defeated Ashina, who was about to ascend to the throne of the Turkic Khan, and killed him, capturing tens of thousands of Turkic tribes, cattle, sheep and horses.

Hearing this, Liu Bin was so shocked that he almost planted a war horse, and after thinking about it, he said in his heart, you are really good at bragging, how much wealth did Li Dingan give you, so that you can brag so hard?

For these words, he naturally doesn't believe it very much, everyone knows the strength of the Turks, and he is no stranger to who Ashina is standing up to Buddha, if you want to say that Princess Yicheng slaughtered the standing Buddha, then it's okay to say, you say Li Ding'an......

Well, some miraculous battles, if it weren't for the grand scale and everyone competing to praise them, the others would have a delay effect, and when it came to Li Po, the delay effect would be even better.

Because the battle took place in the steppe in the clouds, as long as the Turks did not expose themselves to their ugliness, most of the people in the south listened to it as a joke.

is still the same sentence, in the time period when Li Po did not have the right to speak, some of his great achievements will definitely not be recognized by the princes.

Just like Li Yuan often thought, if it weren't for Li Po dragging the Turks in the north, he would definitely not have been so smooth when he led his troops south to Chang'an, but he would never have talked about it to others.

This kind of thing that promotes the good name of others but does not benefit oneself in any way is something that a fool would do.

There is also a general sent by Yanmen, this is the general of Wang Zhibian, the head of the Daizhou march, who smiled all day long, his tone was very strict, and his mind was enough, but he told Liu Bin a very important news.

Li Ding'an is going to be king......

Liu Bin breathed a sigh of relief at the time, there was a happy event, okay, then you can't use a knife or a gun, otherwise, how unlucky.

But every time he thought of this later, he couldn't help but look back at the few carriages in the team, and sighed in his heart, you said that you want to be the king and don't tell us, otherwise how good would it be for us to bring more gifts?

Now, the gift is much lighter, only two carriages are "generous gifts" for Li Ding'an, and the rest are Queen Xiao's honor guards, as well as her belongings in Hebei, of course, the seal of the Son of Heaven is definitely not among them, the queen's seal was sent over, for this reason, Dou Jiande did not eat a few meals in distress.

Especially the tigress Cao in his family, when she learned that Dou Jiande gave away the queen's seal, she almost didn't use force with Dou Jiande.

There is no way, now Dou Jiande's family background is too thin, all the way over, busy with grain and grass, gold and silver are the most useless things in Hebei and Shandong, as long as there is a bite to eat, what can't be changed?

is actually similar to Li Po's situation at the beginning, but Li Po has recovered from it, but Dou Jiande is still struggling in the quagmire.

Liu Bin is full of heartache here, he doesn't want to throw his life in Jindi, and he doesn't want to return in vain, so he has to show some real skills.

What's even more annoying is that he doesn't have much to talk to.

One of the two deputy envoys shrank in the middle of the team, pretending to be cold along the way, and the other ...... is tied to the carriage, and has been turned upside down.

It must be Wang Bo who is tied up, and soon after the world's number one thief saw Dou Jiande, he got the news, saying that Dou Jiande wanted to send him to Li Ding'an for slaughter, well, Dou Jiande was ventilated everywhere, and there seemed to be no secret.

Liu Bin knew that it was Pei Jujin who asked him to send an envoy to Jindi, and it was not very strange for Wang Bo to get the news, everyone was reckless and heroic, and there were many of Dou Jiande's subordinates who sympathized with Wang Bo.

So, during Wang Bo's westward journey, he was ready to stage a Jedi escape again, but unfortunately, Liu Bin had already stared at him, and before he could escape, he was arrested and stuffed into the already full carriage.

Let's not talk about this first, the world's number one thief is like him, and he is unique, which is very embarrassing to the previous seniors.

Another deputy envoy, Yang Gongren, the servant of the ministry, was not far from Liu Bin at this time, and he was also looking at Jinyang Xiongcheng, which was gradually becoming clearer, and was stunned.

He hadn't been to Jinyang, and this northern Xiongcheng was much inferior to Chang'an, but he looked at the sun, moon and star flag on the head of the city, and gradually, there seemed to be water fluctuations in his eyes......

Yang Gongren is about fifty years old, not too young, Kankan has already passed the prime of life, he is not only the son of Guan Wang Yang Xiong, but also his official qualifications are very deep, even if Chen Xiaoyi is compared with him, he is a little inferior.

He was the first year of the emperor's reign, because he was the emperor's son, he entered the founding prince of Cheng'an County at the age of a teenager, and the general of Zuo Zongwei's chariot.

After that, he successively served as Ganzhou Thorn History, Zong Zhengqing, Ministry of Works, Ministry of Officials, Doctor, Justice Doctor, etc., in Yu Culture and there, and served as the secretary of the Ministry of Shangshu, to the rule of Dou Jiande, he was appointed as the Ministry of Officials.

The official position is not high to a certain level, but he is also an all-round player, who can not only lead the troops into battle, but also dismount and settle the people, with a strong legacy of the late Jin Dynasty.

This patriarch of the Sui family is almost the same as his younger brother Yang Xu, his appearance is not very outstanding, but he has thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a short beard, which is more thoughtful and solemn than Yang Xu.

Of course, what he thought about at this time was not related to Liu Bin, he had already met Pei Ju before the envoy, although he despised Pei Ju as a person, but he was still a little grateful for Pei Ju's help.

Everyone is a scattered person, living in a troubled world, what do the previous grievances say he did? As for the big festival...... Both of them suffered a lot of losses, and in comparison, he, a relative of the Sui family, was even more ashamed.

Therefore, Pei Ju's grasp of people's hearts is already perfect, and what Yang Gongren thinks is not what he expected.

Just like now, Yang Gongren is wondering whether to stay in Jinyang or go south to Chang'an?

Such a multiple-choice question actually didn't exist the moment he saw the sun, moon and stars flag, even if Li Ding'an was from a lower background, but now he is still wearing the sun, moon and stars flag, what about Li Yuan......

In fact, this is all an excuse, the reason why he doesn't want to go back to Chang'an is just because he doesn't want to see those old people, especially Li Yuan, one of them is a royal family relative, and the other is a relative of the Sui family.

Guan Wang Yang Xiong's lineage is highly used, but Li Yuan is the object of Yang's vigilance, so Li Yuan, the Duke of Tang Guo, will see him, the founding prince, but he wants to see it.

Now that there are already people in Chang'an City, when you get there, are you in a hurry to be ridiculed and insulted?
