Chapter 598: What I Saw and Heard in Beijing
The wooden wheeled car stopped in the post station on the outskirts of the capital, and the second dog carried the burden, and the last one came out of the wooden wheeled car.
Stepping on the ground, Ergou felt that his heart was steady, and the fatigue and irritability caused by the overnight car ride were swept away.
Following Zheng Kai and Suhar out of the post station, looking at the clear blue sky, the endless sweet potato fields, and the high city wall of the capital in the distance, Ergou's eyes moistened.
When will the peasants of Qi be able to live such a life?
The three of them entered the capital, Zheng Kai and Suharcha were going to their own mansions, and Ergou was going to Dingxiang Wei Yamen to meet Shangguan, and the three of them parted at the city gate.
Ergou walked slowly along Suzaku Street, looking at the rows of restaurants and shops, and the endless flow of cars, horses, and people, I only felt that this was the Heavenly Empire, and this was what a capital should look like.
The capital of Qi State, bullshit!
After walking for a long time, Ergou asked a few passers-by and arrived at the Dingxiang Guard Yamen.
The forbidden army on duty inspected Ergou's official certificate, returned the official certificate to Ergou, and gave him a military salute.
"The governor has already explained, Lord Chen is here, just go in directly."
Ergou returned a military salute at a loss, sweating a little on his forehead, thanked the forbidden army, and then entered the yamen.
Under the guidance of the forbidden army, Ergou walked through a few doors, and met Pingqi, who was hurrying out, leading himself to join the Dingxiang Guard.
"I've Seen the Governor"
The second dog simply nodded to the ground on one knee and saluted to Pingqi.
Ping Qi walked two steps briskly, helped up the second dog, and his face was full of smiles:
"Okay, good, our Han army's great hero who was able to defeat the Qi army is back, okay."
"Let's go, I'm about to see the prince, you can go with me."
Ergou suddenly became at a loss, "My lord, I, I just came, I sat on the wooden wheel last night, and I haven't bathed and changed my clothes yet, this can't work." ”
Pingqi strode out: "Let's go, the prince doesn't care about this, you don't have many opportunities to see the prince, let's go." ”
Ergou was a little at a loss, but Lord Pingqi said so, it should be, probably, the prince is not a big deal.
Xiang followed out of the yamen, turned around the large square next to it, and the two arrived in front of the palace gate.
Pingqi handed in the official certificate, and after being searched, he pointed to the second dog behind him.
"This is the commander of my Dingxiang Guard stationed in Qi State, summoned by the prince."
The captain of the palace gate glanced at Ergou, and with a wave of his hand, several forbidden soldiers surrounded Ergou, and divided five by two to grope for Ergou's baggage and armor.
"Let's go inside."
After the body search was correct, the captain of the palace gate waved his hand and let the two dogs enter the palace.
The palace was very large, and Ergou only remembered that when he passed through the twelfth porch, he finally saw a large group of guards with a green and crimson lake.
These guards were tall and had knives on their waists, all of them had the appearance of being arrogant, and the face of Lu Zhan led by them was gloomy and terrifying.
"This is the guard who stole the defense map of the Qi State, Chen Ergou, who was ordered to come to see the prince."
Pingqi explained to Lu Zhan.
As soon as Lu Zhan waved his hand, several more guards came over and searched Chen Ergou's body.
Seeing that there was no entrainment on the two of them, Lu Zhan waved his hand:
"Go, the prince has been waiting for you in the Imperial Garden for a long time."
Take the lead and walk towards the courtyard.
Ergou didn't dare to slack off, he chased after him quickly, looking at Zuo near from the corner of his eye, his heart was full of boredom, this yard is so big, how come there is no one to eat the things grown, and there is not a single apple.
"Pingqi has seen His Majesty and the prince."
The level in front of him has already knelt down.
The second dog stumbled and almost lay on his buttocks, but he also took advantage of the situation and knelt down.
"Chen Ergou has seen the prince."
After chanting, Chen Ergou suddenly remembered that he had an explanation before coming, and when he saw His Majesty and the prince, he had to see His Majesty first, and then the prince.
I was so excited just now that I forgot all about it.
Thinking of the fate of those bastards who offended His Majesty's face, Ergou was scared all of a sudden, would I be beheaded? The female guard who searched her salute at Shangshan Post Station will never be seen again.
"Get up, Ergou, who gave you this name?"
A gentle female voice sounded, asking the origin of the name of the second dog.
Ergou was stunned for a moment, His Majesty did not blame himself. After calming down his mood, Ergou said in a hoarse voice:
"Back to Your Majesty, Chen's parents died when he was a child, and he grew up with two puppies, so he named himself Chen Ergou because most of the people in the village were surnamed Chen."
Li Qing shook his head: "This name is dirty, and it is enough to be a nickname, but it is a little insufficient to be on the family tree and have a name on the official list." ”
"Lord Wang, this is your subordinate, what kind of name do you think is good?"
Li Qing asked Su Lu next to him with a smile, feeling a little strange in his heart, why was the prince in a daze.
Su Lu was not in a daze, but only slightly lost his mind.
Chen Ergou actually has a fate card on his body.
The generals under his command, except for the civil and military generals and the four generals of Zhongxing, have more than three fate cards on their bodies, but there are not many of the rest of the generals with fate cards.
Even if he is as brave as Zheng Kai, he only has two fate cards on his body, and as for Suharcha, who has just been crowned king, he doesn't have a fate card.
Elite Card: Chen Ergou
Fate Card: Level 2 Short Knife Soldier Card
Hearing Li Qing's words, Su Lu smiled.
"I think the name Ergou is very good, in the name of Ergou, who depends on each other, it shows that this child does not forget his roots, he is a good child, I believe that we treat him well, and he will not forget our good."
Ergou burst into tears when he heard this, only to feel that the words of the prince had gone to his heart, and the feeling of being depressed because His Majesty couldn't look down on his name was swept away.
"The prince is Mingjian, the ministers are full of liver and brains, and they are loyal to the Han Kingdom."
Su Lu motioned to Pingqi to help the second dog up, and said:
"I see your loyalty, well, how is your kung fu? Your knife skills should be pretty good, right? ”
Ergou was slightly puzzled, but he still said honestly:
"The minister's kung fu is not good, and the knife technique can only be said to be able to use a knife."
Su Lu summoned Lu Zhan and told him to fetch the saber he had used in his campaign against the barbarians.
Lu Zhan took the knife and handed it to Su Lu, Su Lumo rubbed the scabbard, if this knife was not given away, I am afraid that there would never be a chance to see the light of day.
"This is my saber from the old war, I give it to you, you should be good at using it."
Ergou took the knife in a daze, puzzled, why did the prince give himself the knife.
Su Lu encouraged Ergou a few words, asked him some about the situation in Qi, explained the military strategy that Dingxiao Wei was going to implement in Qi in the next step, and talked for a while.
Li Qing interrupted the two and said with a smile:
"Last time, the two dogs made meritorious contributions, and the reward couldn't be sent to the Qi country, so this time I will make it up for you."
A little eunuch unfolded a scroll of holy decrees.
Ergou and Pingqi hurriedly knelt down to receive the order.
Li Qing waved his hand: "I won't read this will, Ergou, you can take it back and see it yourself, this is the will of giving you a knight, and rewarding you for your great achievements." ”
"I promise you that the day he belongs to the Han Kingdom, you will be honored to return to your hometown."
The second dog burst into tears and knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
"Thank you for your grace, thank you for your grace."
