Chapter 18 Like Entering a Land Where No Man's Is

Now the unified theory of this expenditure levy is that Liu Yongxi is going to Linqing to collect debts and grab a beauty by the way, so there are already many small stories about this beauty inside and outside Liu's mansion, and some stories can even be described as vicious, all of which were specially brewed by those who had a heart to attack Liu Yongxi.

Only a very small number of old people from Zhejiang, Nanjing and Kaifeng knew that Liu Yongxi's destination this time was not Linqing but Nanjing, but no matter whether the destination was Linqing or Nanjing, after the departure, the huge team of more than 200 people was all relieved.

Now Li Zicheng's hundreds of thousands of army thieves have already passed the real determination, it is said that the thieves may kill the city at any time, and a military disaster may immediately befall the capital, everyone can't help but think of the killing catastrophe in the second year of Chongzhen, and it is naturally a very lucky thing to leave the capital at this time.

And unlike ordinary caravans, Liu Yongxi commanded a team of more than 200 people at least seems to be "elite", although there are many slaves, maids, family members and other idle people who can only cause chaos when they encounter a strong enemy, but there are more than 100 soldiers who can fight, and there are many outlaws and horse teams to suppress the formation.

Although the vicinity of the capital has not been peaceful in recent years, bandits are infested with impermanence, and there have even been many cases of official silver being robbed and stolen, but with such an "elite" looking combatable soldier escort, as long as it does not run into Li Zicheng's millions of thieves, it should be guaranteed to be foolproof.

What everyone is worried about is another question, that is, whether such a huge team can walk out of Beijing safely.

Before going out, Liu Yongxi said that he had settled everything, but the civil and military officials who set up blocks all the way were not blind, not to mention that there were still Jinyiwei, Dongchang and Criminal Department officials who patrolled the city at that time.

Although Liu Yongxi stated that he was going to Linqingzhou to collect debts this time and grab a beauty by the way, but anyone with a discerning eye knew that this was just an excuse to flee without a fight, and as long as Liu Yongxi could get out of Beijing City, he would definitely not come back in a short time.

As long as these civil officials, military generals, clerks, Jinyi guards and eunuchs guarding the checkpoint have a little sense of responsibility, then Liu Yongxi's team will be blocked immediately, and it may even cause an earth-shattering disaster.

Although it is really a last resort, you can indeed invite Taikang Hou and Empress Zhang, maybe you can get unexpected results and solve all problems.

But these are the last two trump cards, it is impossible to play them until the last resort, and it will cause unforeseen consequences after playing, so the reason why Liu Yongxi led the horse team to press the formation at the end is really ready to let the horse team rush, at least to fight head-on.

But things went a little smoother than Liu Yongxi imagined.

Although Liu Yongxi has been rampage everywhere in the past few days under the banner of Taikang Hou and Empress Zhang, I don't know how many big people have been forced to bow their heads and admit their mistakes, give gifts and make amends, and settle all the procedures for leaving the city by the way, but now it is too sensitive to go out of the city in such a mighty way.

However, the checkpoints along the road were only symbolically inspected and then released, and the petty officers in charge of guarding the checkpoints even waited there to say hello to Liu Yongxi: "Little uncle, can you take care of us next time you go to Linqingzhou to rob women?" Our brothers also want to make a fortune with you, as long as the money is enough, you say to rob whichever girl you want, you must not forget us then!"

One level after another was easily broken through, Liu Yongxi originally thought that he would encounter a lot of unexpected troubles, but Liu Fu can be said to be in the limelight in the capital now, and there is no injustice at all, even several assistant Beijing affairs Hou Ye, Jinshi, and eunuchs all bowed their heads to Liu Mansion, so now no one dares to provoke Liu Yongxi, and the whole convoy is like entering a no-man's land.

The biggest trouble was just a small civil official who stood up and asked to check the luggage of their convoy, but Shi Chaoli came forward to negotiate and said two cruel words, and this little civil official couldn't resist it and let him go directly, but Shi Chaoli still unceremoniously continued to reprimand: "Our family remembers you, and let Dongchang clean you up when you turn back!"

As soon as he heard the prestige of Dongchang, this little civil official hurriedly caught up with Liu Yongxi to admit his mistake and make amends, although Liu Yongxi did not care about him a lot, this little civil official still did not dare to be careless: "Since the little uncle is going out of the city, the following matters will be negotiated by the lower officials to ensure that there is no difference in the pool!"

With him in charge of negotiating with the checkpoints along the road, there was naturally no obstacle all the way, and now Zhang Guoji is full of praise for Liu Yongxi: "I originally thought that I was going to do my best to fight my way out of the encirclement, but I didn't expect things to go so smoothly, no wonder Mr. Berwyn would deliberately give his dream to Xiao Chengyibo!" ”

If yesterday he was skeptical of Liu Bowen's statement that the dream and the sun and the moon were suspended, now Zhang Yan is half-convinced of what Tuo Mengzhi said, and feels that Liu Yongxi has a great chance of success in escorting this Nandu: "It's still my father's discernment, although this little Chengyi Uncle is less than twenty years old, but he is indeed a rare talent in this dynasty, but I still have a deep feeling." ”

Zhang Guoji attaches great importance to Empress Zhang's thoughts: "Yan'er, what other feelings do you have?" ”

Zhang Yan sighed faintly, and hugged the little palace maid who was sleeping on her side: "My Daming is indeed exhausted in Beijing!" ”

According to the rules and regulations of the Ming Dynasty, under the current situation of the great enemy, Liu Yongxi's army is definitely difficult to move an inch, and they can't even get out of Liu's mansion at all.

But in fact, it was Liu Yongxi's team that drove all the way into a no-man's land, especially after seeing the horse team led by Liu Yongxi himself, the checkpoints along the road did not even have the courage to check.

The civil and military officials in charge of guarding the checkpoint all nodded and bowed their heads to move away from the blocking horses as soon as possible, and even those Jinyi guards and Dongchang detectives who patrolled the city did not dare to offend Liu Yongxi at all, and they had already avoided it far away before they met.

But this also shows that the rules and regulations of the Ming Dynasty have completely saved their names, and everyone has completely disregarded the orders of Emperor Chongzhen and the imperial court as the same thing.

Zhang Guoji didn't expect Zhang Yan to say such a meaningful word, but what he saw along the way was not much different from Zhang Yan, and he couldn't help but sigh long: "If I knew this, I shouldn't have let you read so many books!" ”

The little palace maid in Empress Zhang's arms is sleeping soundly now, so she can only lower her voice: "I think this little uncle should have read more books than me!" Besides, if we don't study, I'm afraid we will already be buried in the belly of the fish, and we don't know what Kaifeng City is like now. ”

Zhang Guoji couldn't help but be silent, Zhang Yan has had a very unsatisfactory life over the years, but this does not mean that she can live happily without entering the palace, because now is the real troubled times!

What is the current situation in Kaifeng City? It should be what the book says, "There is no rooster crow for thousands of miles, and the white bones are exposed in the wild"!
