Since Li Jiancheng personally went to Li Haochen's mansion to pay respects to the commander, in just one day, Li Haochen ordered all his soldiers and horses, led the army out of Chang'an City, and went straight to Tongguan.

It is worth mentioning that Li Haochen actually played Li Jiancheng in this sensitive period when he and Li Jiancheng were played, and let Fang Xuanling be the marching military division. If there is merit, the reward will be awarded after the triumph.

At the same time, Li Jiancheng sent Wei Zheng as the supervisor of the army to supervise military affairs on his behalf, Li Haochen knew that this was the act just now, so that Li Jiancheng had doubts in his heart, and he did not stop it, and readily agreed to this appointment, which made Li Jiancheng, who was still hanging in his heart just now, feel a lot more relieved, Wei Zheng has been following him since he became the prince, Wei Zheng's loyalty, Li Jiancheng is 100% assured, of course, he is not worried about Li Haochen, but because of Li Haochen's strong recommendation, he is afraid that Li Haochen will be bewitched by Fang Xuanling, and he will fight back, At that time, Li Jiancheng will really be powerless. At this time of life and death, Li Jiancheng had to act carefully.

On the first day of his expedition, he marched 100 miles, and in the evening, he arrived at the boundary of Xinfeng County (today's Lintong District, Xi'an City), 5 miles below Xinfeng City, Li Haochen ordered to set up camp, and did not enter the city to harass the people of Li.

After finishing the camp, Li Haochen also felt a little tired because of the day's march, and wanted to rest early. Tomorrow can also be rushed earlier, to support Tongguan, who knew that when he was sleepy, the herald outside came to report that the Xinfeng County Order came to visit, Li Haochen secretly slandered himself, this Xinfeng County Order did not take the wrong medicine, this obviously did not want him to sleep well, and he actually came to visit him so late. It's really a superb.

Although Li Haochen thought so, although his grade was much higher than that of Xinfeng County, he marched through other people's places and did not give face to Xinfeng County, which was the local governor, which was obviously inappropriate, after all, the strong dragon did not suppress the truth of the snake, Li Haochen still knew, he would still give face, with the herald's report, he dragged his tired body up, and instructed the herald: "Bring people into the big tent!" The herald took the order.

In fact, what Li Haochen didn't know was that the Xinfeng County Commander had long known that Li Haochen was going out on behalf of the Son of Heaven, so he naturally didn't dare to slack off, and had been waiting for the arrival of the army under the city for a long time, but he didn't dare to come forward to ask if he couldn't wait for Li Haochen's army to advance, until the army set up a tent and set up a rejection horse, this Xinfeng County Order understood that Li Haochen didn't plan to enter his Xinfeng County, thinking that he couldn't prepare in vain for so long, he was really a little unwilling, so he took his entourage and went to the barracks to meet Li Haochen.

After Li Haochen sat down in the Chinese military tent, the herald entered the big tent with the Xinfeng County Order, and before Li Haochen could speak, the county order knelt on the ground and said: "Xiaguan Xinfeng County ordered Du Zhong to meet the Shangcha!" ”

Seeing this, Li Haochen hurriedly stood up and said, "Why did Du County Order make this big gift?" Hurry up, Ben Shuai can't afford it! You must know that in the Tang Dynasty, this kneeling ceremony can only be used for "heaven, earth, king, parent, teacher", this heaven and earth refer to the time of worshipping heaven and earth, Jun refers to meeting the emperor, pro refers to seeing parents or direct relatives, that is, refers to the parents of parents, the teacher refers to the master, and the rest of the bowing is to give a salute, and there is no need to bow down, and this Xinfeng County Order and Li Haochen only saw that there was obviously no one of the five relations, so Li Haochen had this question.

This Du Zhong stood up after listening to Li Haochen's words, and said without humility or arrogance: "The lower official knows that the marshal is going on the expedition on behalf of His Majesty, and the lower official naturally wants to pay homage to the marshal to meet His Majesty, and the marshal does not need to be confused!" ”

Li Haochen was not in the mood to discuss any etiquette with this Du Zhong, he was tired now, it was like a good sleep, so he didn't bother with this Du Zhong, but said directly: "Du County Ling, I came to see Ben Shuai so late, I don't know what to say?" Ben Shuai was very tired after a day of marching! Saying that, Li Haochen yawned, and the meaning of Li Haochen's words was already obvious, that is, he was a little impatient and ordered to expel the guest.

This Du Zhong listened to Li Haochen's words as if he didn't understand, and said with a haha: "Marshal, you passed by Xinfeng County, and you took the Son of Heaven on the expedition, and the people of Xinfeng County all want to meet the marshal, and they have prepared wine and food in the city to wash the dust for the marshal, and I hope that the marshal will not shirk and go with the officials." ”

Li Haochen knew that the so-called Xinfeng people in Du Zhong's mouth were referring to those gate valve clans, and the real Li people would not care about him, the marshal who went out on behalf of the prince, but it was difficult to shirk because these people were basically 80% of the factors that the entire Tang Dynasty could stabilize, and he did not dare and could not snub these people.

Li Haochen did not reply to Du Zhong in a hurry, but asked directly: "These people of Xinfeng are really enthusiastic, dare to ask the county order, did the people of Xinfeng only invite Ben Shuai himself?" ”

Hearing this, Du Zhong saluted and said, "Don't blame the marshal! It's the negligence of the lower officials! At the same time, the people invited Lord Wei, the prime minister of the prison army, and Lord Fang, the commander of the marching army! Please take two people with the marshal and go into the city with the subordinates, don't take away the kindness of the people! ”

Li Haochen laughed when he heard this, he looked at Du Zhong deeply with a look that made Du Zhong feel very strange, and then said: "The county order is enthusiastic, the people love it, how can Ben Shuai not go, the county order will be later, Rong Benshuai will personally invite Lord Wei and Lord Fang, and then enter the city with the county order!" Do you think so? ”

Hearing this, Du Zhong nodded with a smile and said, "This is very good, then there is Marshal Lao, and the lower officials are waiting for the marshal here!" ”

Li Haochen left the big tent with a smile, Du Zhong looked at Li Haochen's back and his eyes showed a fierce light, not at all as gentle and elegant as just now, but like a poisonous snake waiting to catch its prey.

Li Haochen left the big tent for about half an hour, and then returned to the big tent, and at the same time he was followed by two people, it was Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng, after several people introduced each other, they greeted each other, and followed Du Zhong to Xinfeng County.
