Chapter 170: Entering Beijing
The movement in the inn alarmed several people resting on the second floor at the same time, they glanced at Shen Jiahe and the others, looked at each other again, and under the gesture of one of them, they instantly rushed towards Shen Jiahe on the first floor.
The commander arranged a few of them here, originally to deal with King Xian Pei Yuan, but he didn't expect King Xian to meet, but he met Princess Xian, whether it was to kill her or use her to threaten King Xian, it was a very suitable thing.
Yuan Yang and Yuan Xu are also secret guards, and they have long seen the small movements upstairs, and they also reminded Shen Jiahe early in the morning, and at the moment when the people upstairs jumped from the second floor, the four of them also made a defensive posture in advance.
A group of people were inseparable from each other, and at this time, Pei Yuan, who was supposed to be waiting for Shen Jiahe in front, rushed over with He Cong and the secret guards, so that in terms of numbers, he had already defeated these killers sent by the emperor.
However, after a cup of tea, the fight ended in the result of several people being tied up, but just as He Cong was about to uncover the ninja skin masks of several people, he saw that they had bitten the poison in their teeth and committed suicide.
He Cong's hand shook: "It's dead!" ”
Pei Yuan motioned to the few people behind him to carry the body out, and then instructed Yuanyang to negotiate with the owner of the inn, so that if someone died in public, there must be a reason that can convince them.
Pei Yuan took Shen Jiahe outside, and then took off the clothes of those dead soldiers, without imaginary marks, "It seems that the emperor has learned well this time and knows that he can't leave evidence." ”
Shen Jiahe clenched his fists and said resentfully: "You fought desperately for him in front, he was good, and he actually wanted your life afterwards." ”
"When I go back after winning the battle, he will be even more difficult to deal with, and this move has been expected for a long time." After Pei Yuan finished speaking, he ordered He to follow them, "Dispose of these corpses nearby." ”
Shen Jiahe couldn't be as light as Pei Yuan: "You mean that you knew early on that he would be poisoned, and even so, you are willing to go to the battlefield." ”
Pei Yuan looked at Shen Jiahe's face full of distress, and the pain in his heart was healed a little, he hugged Shen Jiahe and smiled: "I am for the people of Dawn, not for him, Jiahe, it is enough for me to feel sorry for you." ”
In order to catch up with Shi Xiangjie and them, Pei Yuan and the others did not stop, and immediately set off, but passing through the location where Pei Yuan received the news before, two ropes suddenly rose on the road, and Shen Jiahe and Liuzhen's horse couldn't dodge and collided directly.
The horse screamed directly and pounced forward, Pei Yuan flew in his arms for the first time, his toes lightly touched the rope, and the person sat back on his horse safely.
Fortunately, Liuyu himself will work lightly, and he will fly away at the moment when the horse has an accident, so that he can be safe and not injured, Pei Yuan looked at both ends of the rope coldly, and said in a deep voice: "You don't have to hide, come out!" ”
Just after more than a dozen black-clothed people jumped out of the grass, Pei Yuan looked at them coldly, and then raised his hand and patted them lightly twice, and another group of black-clothed people rushed over from all directions.
Shen Jiahe looked at the black-clothed man who was trapped in the inner circle and laughed lightly: "The praying mantis catches cicadas and yellow finches, no one tells you this truth, it's a pity for you good hands." ”
"Less nonsense, kill!" The man in black gave an order, and the two teams fought together.
But whether it is the number of people or the strength of martial arts, the emperor's secret guards are no match for Pei Yuan, this time Pei Yuan doesn't care if he still has to leave evidence, and directly gives a death order, leaving no one!
Shen Jiahe's horse was gone, so he naturally rode with Pei Yuan, while Liuyu took Yuanyang's horse, and the group continued to rush forward, they delayed for so long that it took a few days to catch up with the team, causing Shi Xiangjie, as the vanguard in the army, to enter the city one step ahead of Pei Yuan, the deputy general.
In order to show his attention, the emperor took hundreds of officials to the city gate early in the morning to welcome the return of the army, and Shen Jiahui also explained to Shi's mother, and temporarily handed over some of the feeds that needed to be dealt with to the maids in the room, and came out to pick up Shi Xiangjie himself.
Shen Jiahui knew that if he followed the emperor, he would definitely not have a chance to talk to Shi Xiangjie, and he would take the army to face the saint, and it was estimated that he would have to explain to the emperor for a long time.
So she took the guards in the house to greet her outside the city at the beginning, and when Shi Xiangjie was on the way, the guards from afar saw Shi Xiangjie who was taking the lead, and hurriedly shouted Shen Jiahui to take a look: "Young grandma, our young master is back." ”
Shen Jiahui waved happily but was a little strange, why she didn't see Pei Yuan's figure, if she hadn't arrived home early and said that everything was fine, she would have been anxious a long time ago.
Shi Xiangjie saw Shen Jiahui waiting at the intersection with the guards, hurriedly raised his hand and waved the whip, the horse ran faster, and stopped not far from Shen Jiahui in a moment, Shi Xiangjie got off the horse and ran over, hugged Shen Jiahui tightly in his arms, and said in a dumb voice after a long time: "Why don't you wait for me at home." ”
Shen Jiahui laughed first, but there were tears on her face when she smiled: "I miss you, I just want to see you soon, I can't wait for a moment." ”
Shi Xiangjie also laughed, and reached out to wipe away the tears on her face little by little: "Now that I'm back, I'll never leave you again." ”
"But father, he?" General Shi stayed at the border, and the family knew about the matter agreed by the emperor's decree early on, thinking of her mother-in-law's worried look, Shen Jiahui didn't feel good in her heart.
Shi Xiangjie's eyes were gloomy, but he still smiled and said, "Father has his own considerations, let's talk about this after a while." ”
Shen Jiahui hummed softly, and looked behind him again, the army was lined up for a long time, and he couldn't see his head at all, "What about Lord Xian?" And my sister, isn't she? ”
Shi Xiangjie nodded, signaling Shen Jiahui not to worry: "They have some things to delay, just behind, your sister's affairs can't be quiet, don't mention it in front of outsiders." ”
Shen Jiahui nodded, and then continued to walk towards the city gate with Shi Xiangjie, and when everyone saw that the leader was the striker Shi Xiangjie, they all began to talk for a while.
"There's no news that something happened to King Xian, what's going on?"
"Could it be that something happened on the way? I heard that General Shi forgave a lot of people from the Qin clan, and there must be remnants of the Qin clan lying in ambush on the road, they must hate us to the core, will they poison King Xian? ”
"No, as a deputy general, King Xian is said to have some ability, how can it be?"
"What's not, King Xian is just a scholar prince, even if he has two points of ability, I don't think it's as good as Shi Qianfeng's kung fu, but the army hasn't arrived yet, let's wait and see."
The emperor sat on top of Luanjia, listening to the discussions of the ministers around him, and couldn't help laughing, no Pei Yuan, no Shen Jiahe, it seems that the people he sent out have succeeded, maybe even the corpse is gone.
The smile on his face became bigger and bigger, bigger and bigger, and finally he laughed softly, and the chief manager next to him said at the right time: "General Shi won the battle, and we successfully incorporated the territory of the Qin clan into the Pei clan, congratulations to the emperor." ”
The emperor glanced at the chief manager with satisfaction, and his voice also carried a touch of joy: "I should be happy, General Shi is worthy of being the god of war of my Pei family, with General Shi guarding the border for the Pei family, I can sleep peacefully every night." ”
All the ministers reacted and returned, and shouted before Shi Xiangjie approached: "Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor, the territory of our dynasty has expanded again this time." ”
Pei Yuan took Shen Jiahe and Liuyu to follow at the end of the team, seeing that Shen Jiahe dressed as a man and a woman had no flaws, Pei Yuan whispered: "I will go to the front of the team now, you are still here, the emperor will definitely be shocked that I am still alive in this world, and when the time comes, while everyone's attention is all on me, you and Liuyu and them will hurry back to the palace, and I will arrange the rest." ”
Shen Jiahe nodded in response, Pei Yuan immediately stepped forward to catch up with Shi Xiangjie's pace, and the officials and emperors who were already very close were surprised.
"This king has nothing to do, maybe there is something to delay before."
"Yes, it's good to be able to come back, this Xianwang is also heartbroken for the court, and this war is also indispensable."
"The emperor should be rewarded this time, I knew that we should have asked for a war with King Xian in the first place, maybe we could be promoted to the next level."
The smile on the corner of the emperor's mouth froze there, and he stared at Pei Yuan deadly, hoping that someone would tell him that everything was an illusion at this time.
But Pei Yuan and Shi Xiangjie had already knelt under him together, shouting in their mouths: "The ministers see the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor!" ”
He grabbed the armrest of Luanjia, still wanting to tell himself that everything in front of him was a dream, and the chief manager saw that all the officials looked at the emperor strangely, so he had to remind: "Your Majesty, King Xian and Lord Xiao Shi are back." ”
The emperor came back to his senses at this time, he must not panic, he must be calm, he must not let Pei Yuan see anything, this time he did not leave any marks for those secret guards, even if he came back, he would never know that it would be the people he sent out.
"It's good to be back, it's good to be back, you have worked hard for the court, and I thank you on behalf of the tens of millions of people of the Pei Dynasty." The emperor resurfaced with a smile, "Let's all be flat, set up the Jinluan Palace, and reward the soldiers!" ”
Shi Xiangjie and Pei Yuan slowly got up and began to follow the emperor's Luan back to the palace, after passing through the city wall, Pei Yuan glanced behind him, and saw that the four people were sneaking out of the team, so he continued to move forward with confidence.
Shen Jiahe took the three of them back to the Xianwang Mansion first, this time they still didn't dare to go to the main gate, they still returned to the palace courtyard from the secret door, and when they pushed the door and saw Bai Ying standing behind, they jumped back in fright.
"Who are you, who are you!" Bai Ying pointed at a few people and shouted, seeing that several people laughed inexplicably, she came closer to look, "Princess, you are finally back!" ”
Shen Jiahe smiled and hugged Bai Ying, who rushed over, in his arms, and let go of the person after a while: "We were afraid of being recognized, so we made it like this, but why are you staying here?" ”
Bai Ying cried and laughed, and finally calmed down her emotions: "I heard that the army came back today, and the slave maid thought that the princess might still have to go through the secret door, so she waited here early in the morning, but she didn't expect to recognize you at the first time." ”
Shen Jiahe gently wiped her tears, "It's right if you can't recognize it, is everything okay in the house?" ”
"It's all good, Gonggong Fu takes care of the palace with his slaves and maids as before, but everyone is worried about you and the prince." Speaking of this, Bai Ying patted her head, "Look at the slave's memory, Madame sent someone to wait for your news in the palace day and night, and the slave and maid hurriedly went to say something." ”
Shen Jiahe watched Bai Ying hurriedly run away, laughed helplessly, turned around and ordered the three behind him: "You go back to rest, these days have been hard, you don't have to be on an errand these days." ”
"We didn't work hard, we didn't even go to the battlefield." Speaking of which, there are still some regrets.
The three of them thanked Shen Jiahe for his kindness and went back to the place where they lived, and Shen Jiahe went straight to wash up and change his clothes before going to see Father-in-law Fu.
"Princess, it's good that you come back safely. Next time, you can't go out without a sound, it really makes the old slave worry day and night. Father-in-law Fu gave Shen Jiahe a salute.
"I'm worried about you, but has my family Bai Ying arranged it?" Shen Jiahe asked.
Bai Ying walked in from outside the door at this time and replied directly: "I have already told him the news that the princess has returned safely, and this will already go back to the palace to reply, the princess doesn't have to worry about it." ”
