The main city of Jinzhou, Liaoning, since Wang Mang made a plan on the day he made a plan to leave Liaoning and go to Qingzhou to become an official. After five or six days, he had already taken care of some follow-up matters.

The generals unanimously did not have any objection to Wang Mang's decision to send troops, and they all agreed very much.

This situation arose precisely because of their blind worship of Wang Mang. Because they found that it seemed that any of Wang Mang's decisions were correct, and there were basically no mistakes.

It seems that Wang Mang wants to do something, even if the process is tortuous, but in the end, it will still succeed.

Under Wang Mang's orders, the generals began to send troops, and passed the news to their subordinates, so that they could be mentally prepared.

On the seventh day, he and Wang Jingyan boarded the carriage and headed for Qingzhou.

With him, there were hundreds of martial arts masters and battlefield generals to escort him, and Qiu Tong was also among them.

This woman seems to have become a two-faced character, on the one hand, she protects Wang Jingyan for Wang Mang, and on the other hand, she reports to the queen and delivers news.

Hundreds of guards rode tall horses on both sides of the road, vigilant all around, hugging the carriage and moving slowly.

After more than a month of travel, Wang Mang set off from the main city of Jinzhou, successfully passed through Chaoyang County, Qingzhou Chengde County, Beiping County, Baoding County, Xingtai County, and arrived at the gate of Yuancheng City, Handan County.

When he came here, Wang Mang took the lead in getting out of the carriage.

He looked at the pedestrians on the road, and he sighed with emotion.

Seven years ago, he escaped from here to avoid Huo Jiawei's family seeking revenge. Now that I'm back here, it's like revisiting the old place, and suddenly a strange thought rises.

"Chang'an, Shaanxi, Chang'an, Hebei, hehe..."

"Xianggong, what's wrong?"

Wang Jingyan saw that Wang Mang was in a daze again, and said puzzledly: "Xianggong, aren't you thinking about what happened back then?" ”

Wang Mang shook his head and said, "No, I'm not thinking about what happened back then, I'm thinking about the imperial capital." Jingyan, I remember telling you before. Historically, the imperial capital of the Western Han Dynasty was in Chang'an, Shaanxi. But now, the imperial capital is in Handan, Hebei. And this Handan Yuan City has been built exactly like Chang'an, Shaanxi, and I am sighing for this. ”

"What's there to feel about this?"

Wang Jingyan said with a smile: "The imperial capital was originally in Chang'an, Shaanxi, but when it came to Emperor Xiaocheng, I don't know why, he moved the imperial capital here. According to the appearance of Chang'an City, the three palaces of the Han Dynasty were rebuilt here. And strictly the people are not allowed to call this place Handan, only Chang'an.

Xianggong, the discrepancy between reality and the history in your mouth is probably due to the impact of your inexplicable appearance. And the architectural pattern here is exactly the same as Chang'an City, so it doesn't matter if this place is Chang'an, it's just a place name. ”

"Having said that, every time I think about these deviations, I feel a little uneasy, and I always wonder if this is a dream. When I wake up, will you suddenly disappear? Wang Mang frowned.

"Nonsense, how can any dream in this world be so real? Don't you see that our daughters are all six years old? ”

Wang Jingyan replied: "Xianggong, don't worry, even if this is really a dream, I will not disappear, I will always grow old with you in your dream." Now you don't think about these nonsensical things, it's better to think more about the things in front of you. ”

When Wang Mang heard this, he was stunned for a moment, nodded and said: "You are right, it doesn't matter if he deviates or not, whether he is a dream or not, the most important thing is to do the things in front of him well." ”

After speaking, he didn't think much about the imperial capital, and led everyone to march towards Yuancheng.

When he had just crossed the gate of Yuancheng, a group of soldiers came in the distance, and one of the generals asked Wang Mang, "Dare to ask if you are Lord Wang Mang?" ”

Wang Mang nodded and said, "Yes, I am Wang Mang, I don't know if you are?" ”

The general replied, "Lord Qiyu, I am Daniel Zhang of the Thousand Households of the Tiger Camp of the Royal Forest Army. Your Majesty has learned that you will arrive in the Imperial Capital in the next few days, so he specially ordered me to meet you at the door. My lord, do you want to see Your Majesty immediately, or do you want to go to General Wuhou's Mansion first? ”

"General Wuhou Mansion? How do you say that? Wang Mang said strangely.

Daniel Zhang explained: "Lord Wang, you don't know, a few days ago, Your Majesty issued an edict to crown you as the Great General of Wuhou and the Great Sima of Qiping, in order to show your merit in pacifying the barbarians in Liaoning.

Your Majesty's edict may have been slightly deviated from the route, so it has not yet reached your lordship. In addition, the General's Mansion is close to your former residence in the royal family, and it was built by His Majesty himself. ”

"I see, Your Majesty has a heart. It is my fault that I, as a courtier, have made His Majesty so troubled. General Zhang, you should first return to Your Majesty for me, and say that I will go to face the saint again when the next routine morning pilgrimage is held. In order not to meet at this time, because the wind and dust on his body disturbed His Majesty's dragon body. ”

"Yes, sir!" Daniel Zhang received the order, gave the seal of General Wuhou's Mansion to Wang Mang, and then turned around and went to Weiyang Palace to restore the order.

Wang Mang shook the sword at his waist and said to the many soldiers around him: "Everyone, we have arrived in Yuancheng at this moment, and we have no worries, you can go to the General's Mansion to rest first." I'll walk around with Jingyan for a while, and then we'll go. ”

When the generals heard this, they hesitated, and one of them said: "Young Master Wang, before leaving, the old lady explained, let us be sure not to leave an inch." Although it is now in Yuancheng, it is still not safe. Young master, you just have to go shopping with peace of mind, I will follow from the back from afar, and the custody will not hinder you, young master. ”

Wang Mang shook his head and said, "No need, if so many people follow me, the people on the street will also be worried." Don't you see that the people are now turning away from us? That's not good. And I have Qiu Tong to accompany me, and the general idle people are helpless. ”

"I'm right when I say it." Wang Jingyan nodded and said: "Generals, there are still many Shangguan masters lurking in this Yuan City, if there are really wrongdoers, I think these Shangguan masters will come to help as soon as possible." ”

When they heard this, they all nodded.

Later, Zhou Yuanjie, the leading master among the generals, selected a few quite clever characters and let them blend into the crowd to act as plainclothes to secretly protect Wang Mang. After that, he led the remaining masters towards the General's Mansion.

When all these hundreds of soldiers dispersed, the city gate was also loosened all of a sudden, and there was no more congestion like just now.

However, pedestrians on the road know that Wang Mang must be a big man, otherwise there would not be so many soldiers to follow and protect him.

They all had a question in their hearts, and they wanted to know which young man's son and young master of a big family this young man was.

Of course, although they had questions, none of them dared to come forward and ask.

Wang Mang and Wang Jingyan didn't care about this, held hands, and wandered around the street generously.

Qiu Tong followed behind, a pair of phoenix eyes scanned the four directions, observed the movement of the four directions, and made the security measures very thoughtful.
