After Lin'er left, Li Yan and Wei Liang walked around the city for a while and prepared to go back. Now that he has offended the righteous son of the cavalry general Liu Yu, it will be quite troublesome if he encounters it in the city.

"This is Wuyi Alley!" Li Yan looked at the street in front of him, there were high-rise mansions on both sides, and all kinds of gorgeous carriages and officials slowly passed through.

After the clothes crossed to the south, the Langya Wang clan and the Chen County Xie clan moved here, and now it has been nearly a hundred years, and the children of the two families have always been valued by Wuyi, and the people call this place Wuyi Lane.

Among the four major families of the Jin Kingdom, Wang Xie all lived here, and here came out of the prime minister Wang Dao, Wang Xizhi and Xie An, Xie Xuan and others of the Xie family. The Wang Xie family has developed to the peak here, especially the Wang family, there are rumors among the people that "the king and the horse share the world".

"General, what's wrong with you?" Wei Liang saw Li Yan looking forward motionlessly, and stepped forward and asked in a low voice.

"It's okay! Let's go back. Li Yan shook his head and walked in the direction of the inn.

Half an hour later, Li Yan and Wei Liang returned to the courtyard of the inn. Han Qian also breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Li Yan coming back.

"Childe, I heard some people in the inn who fled from Yuzhang say that five days ago, Jiangzhou Assassin He Wuji fought a big battle with Lu Dun in Poyang Lake, He Wuji was killed in an ambush, and now Lu Dun is marching to Jiankang with more than 100,000 troops, and the flags on the Yangtze River are covering the sky, and the warships are overwhelming." Han Qian said with palpitations.

"Huh. What are you afraid of! Isn't General Wei Liu Yi still having tens of thousands of troops? This Jiankang City will not be broken for a while. Li Yan poured a glass of water and drank it alone.

"Childe, what if the city is besieged and the Jin army drives us up the city wall to defend against the traitors?" Han Qian looked worried, once Jiankang was besieged, in order to defend the city, it was not a joke to levy the people in the city to go to the city to defend it.

At the beginning, Jiuquan City was besieged by the Huns, and all the young and strong people in the city were requisitioned as people to carry stones and garrison equipment, and if Lu Dun's army besieged the city, then all this could happen. Especially these blood wolf guards under Li Yan's command.

"It's not the way to be in a hurry now. Only take one step at a time. Li Yan sighed, if the Jin army wants to requisition, then there is no way for him, and now that the Jin Emperor has not been summoned, he can't return to Xiliang.

For many days, Li Yan has been in the inn, and now it has been half a month since he came to Jiankang, and since the last time he saw Meng Chang, there has been no news.

Liang Xing waited for Emperor Jin's summons day by day, but there was no news after half a month, and during this period, he also complained that Meng Chang was afraid that he did not submit Xiliang's documents to Emperor Jin.

Li Yan can also eat and drink every day, looking indifferent, Liang Xing shook his head again and again.

Jiankang Palace.

It is full of greenery, pavilions, exotic trees, birds playing among the flowers, and weeping willows fluttering in the wind on the surface of the lake like soft hair. Each pavilion is uniquely crafted, and the white jade pillars and the sparkling scenery on the lake are like a fairyland.

"Queen Mother, Lin'er wants to go out of the palace to relax. The queen mother, you will give permission. ”

On the pavilion, a girl in a long pink dress is burying her little head in the arms of a woman wearing a phoenix crown and wearing a gorgeous garment.

"Not really." The beautiful woman closed her eyes slightly, and let the girl drill in her arms.

"Queen Mother, the child must only be at his uncle's house this time, and he will never go out secretly again." The girl watched her tried and tested coquettish tricks suddenly fail, and shook her jade arm from the woman's arms with her wife's jade arm vigorously.

"The queen mother can't say it's not allowed. You, this kid, if Gao Gonggong hadn't found out in time, he wouldn't have known what would have happened. Fortunately, the man named Li Yan did not have malicious intent, and it is said that Xiliang came to meet your father. If you meet other people with bad intentions, if you have any accidents, how can the queen mother explain to your father? The showy woman said as she patted the girl's little buttocks.

"Queen Mother, is that Brother Li Yan here to meet his father? Great, the queen mother summoned him into the palace to be Lin'er's guard. When the girl heard that Li Yan was coming to meet Emperor Jin, a smile appeared on her face.

"Nonsense. The palace guards are up to your father, so how can you do whatever you want. ”

"Got it. Queen mother. The girl's face was sullen and her eyes were filled with tears, and for the first time in so many years, the queen mother refused herself in a row.

The gorgeous woman took the girl into her arms and let her cry in her arms.

This person is the queen of the Jin Emperor, from the Langya Wang family, the granddaughter of Wang Xizhi, and his father Wang Xianzhi. More than ten years ago, he married Sima Dezong, who had not yet become the Jin Emperor, and now more than ten years have passed.

Emperor Jin is now nearly thirty years old and childless, and there is only a girl in the arms of a woman under his knees. The girl's crying became quieter and quieter in the arms of the beautiful woman, and soon she fell asleep.

"Father-in-law Gao, take Her Royal Highness the princess back to rest." The gorgeous woman commanded the eunuch beside her.

"Yes. Empress. ”

Soon. A few eunuchs carried the soft couch forward and gently put the girl down, and carried it towards the palace not far away.

Early morning!

Jiankang City was covered with a layer of mist, and Li Yan had the habit of getting up early every day, and he got up early in the morning.

Suddenly, there was a commotion outside.

Liang Xing hurriedly walked in, with an excited face.

"General Li, it's a great thing. Today, the court will summon Emperor Jin, hurry up and pack up and go with me to meet Emperor Jin. ”

"Oh? Lord Liang waited for a moment. Li Yan cleaned up a little and came. Li Yan got up and said.

After a while, a eunuch led Li Yan and Liang Xing towards the palace. Behind him, more than a dozen blood wolf guards led the tribute horses.

Outside the main hall, Li Yan and Liang Xing were waiting for Emperor Jin to summon them.

"The Holy Providence, Xuanliang Prefecture is coming to make an envoy." Just when Li Yan was standing and wanted to doze off, a sharp voice came.

In the main hall, it was magnificent, and hundreds of officials knelt in the main hall, and Li Yan could feel hundreds of pairs of eyes staring at him.

"Ministers Liang Xing and Li Yan knock to see Your Majesty." Liang Xing and Li Yan knelt down and kowtowed to Emperor Jin.

Seeing Emperor Jin nodding slightly, a eunuch said: "Your Majesty has an order, and the two of you will come to make peace up." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Liang Xing and Li Yan got up and said after kowtowing here.

"Liangzhou Li Wei has been loyal to the Jin Kingdom for generations, and now he is in Xiliang, worried about the saint, and he is always thinking about His Majesty sending troops to regain the lost land and expelling foreign races~~~, and today I am offering a pair of the best pearls, a high-grade Tianshan Snow Lotus, and ten good horses." Liang Xingyang spoke for a long time, and bowed down again.

"Holy will, what do you have to say to the envoy of Liangzhou?" The eunuch beside Emperor Jin said loudly.

"The minister has something to say, in the past, I heard that Li Wei of Liangzhou was a thief and paid tribute to the puppet Qin, such a disloyal and unrighteous person, please punish your majesty severely!" Captain Xie got up and spoke.

Xie Mingnai is the grandson of Xie An of the Xie family of Chen County, married Princess Jinling, and is also quite famous in the court.

Above the court, all the ministers heard that Li Wei had paid tribute to the Qin State, and they were all filled with righteous indignation.

"Your Majesty, the former puppet Qin attacked Hexi with hundreds of thousands of troops, and my lord couldn't bear the people of Hexi to suffer this great calamity, so he had to pretend to be a vassal to the puppet Qin. Over the years, our lord Li Wei settled the exiled people of Luoyang in Guanzhong and fought against the Hun thieves with all his might. It is in order to return the Great Jin Dynasty to clear out the thieves, and my lord Li Hui's loyalty to His Majesty is visible in heaven and earth, and the sun and the moon can be seen. Your Majesty, please be aware of it. Liang Xing oozed beads of sweat the size of beans on his forehead, and hurriedly knelt down and said.

"Your Majesty, I think the envoy of Liangzhou is reasonable. Now that the north has fallen, there are no one or two out of ten people. The Li family has adhered to Xiliang for many years, making me a great Jin Tianweien and the Western Regions, which is a great achievement. Shang Shu's left servant shot Meng Chang got up and said.

"Your Majesty, the people of Liangzhou are always looking forward to the Northern Expedition of the Wang Division, and at that time, the military and people of Liangzhou will fully cooperate with the Northern Expedition to regain the lost territory." Li Yan saluted Emperor Jin and said.

The civil and military officials above the court talked a lot, some shook their heads, and some closed their eyes and did not say a word. Xie asked again and again.

Half an hour later, Liang Xing and Li Yan felt soaked on their bodies, if they didn't answer well, let alone go back to Xiliang, it was estimated that their heads would have to be picked off today.

Emperor Jin sat on the dragon chair and said nothing. Seeing that no one in the hall asked questions, he looked at Sima Dewen, the king of Langya, who was the same brother of the lower mother. Over the years, Sima Dewen has assisted Sima Dezong in power, and it has been some years.

Emperor Jin saw Sima Dezong nodding and waved his hand to the eunuch beside him.

The eunuch began to read the edict of the Jin Emperor, and Li Wei was awarded the Liangzhou Mu and Jiuquan Gong, and the general of the west was added to supervise the military of Hexi.
