Chapter 309: Leaving Beijing and Leaving for Departure (Part II)

If it were someone else, in the midst of thousands of people, surrounded by the noisy cheers of the people, it would be impossible to hear the voice of the road greeting himself. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info But Yang Zhen is far more sensitive than others, and it is in this environment that he can still clearly distinguish this greeting that is extremely familiar with both the tone and the title.

Hearing the greeting, Yang Zhen pulled the reins slightly, and then turned his head to look to the side following the sound. Even though there were hundreds of people crowded over there at this time, he still saw his brother Yang Chen mixed in the crowd at a glance. In addition to Yang Chen, there are also several familiar figures in the list - Cai Yingyang, Ruan Tong, Wang Hai, and Master Zhuang Heng.

Looking at their dusty appearance and carrying a lot of luggage, it is obvious that this group of people has just arrived in Beijing. This surprised Yang Zhen slightly. Although it is not surprising that they know that their brother will come to Beijing in a short period of time, even if they happened to arrive today, it is a little strange that they appear here in Xizhimen.

Because whether they come to the capital by land or water, people from Zhejiang should enter the city from the east side of the city, but now Yang Chen and they have appeared in the west, isn't this the opposite direction?

With doubts in his heart, Yang Zhen said hello to Mo Chong beside him, and asked him to lead someone to take the first step, while he broke away from the team and walked to Yang Chen's side. When he came to Yang Chen, he reflexively dismounted and threw the reins of the horse to the guards who followed him - now his identity is different from before, and he naturally has guards on the left and right - he happily hugged his fist at his brother: "Big brother, I didn't expect you to come so timely." If it's another day, you and my brother will have to meet again in a few months. ”

As soon as the people beside them saw Yang Zhen's dress, and saw that he came out of the expedition team, they immediately flashed to the side and gave their brothers space to speak.

Yang Chen was looking at his brother with a puzzled face at this time: "Erlang, where are you going?" Why do you look like there is such a battle? ”

"Didn't the eldest brother hear that there was a mutiny in Shanxi all the way to the capital? Brother, I went to quell the chaos on the orders of the imperial court. Yang Zhen explained simply.

"Is that what happened? Then Erlang, you have to be careful when you go, Shanxi is a border pass after all, and there will be a few fights...... "Although Yang Chen came all the way, he still heard about the affairs of the court, and when he heard that Yang Zhen was going to Shanxi, he was immediately a little worried.

"Don't worry, brother, I will definitely pay attention to safety when I go." Yang Zhen nodded, and then asked his own question: "Big brother, why did you appear here?" Didn't you come to the capital to enter the city from the east? ”

"This ......" Yang Chen's face turned red, but he still explained truthfully: "Because we are not familiar with the place, we turned in the wrong direction for a while, and unconsciously ran to the west. But this is a mistake, otherwise I wouldn't have seen you. ”

Yang Zhen felt a burst of amusement in his heart, it seems that his brother who entered Beijing this time is also a little nervous, otherwise he would never make such a low-level mistake, you must know that Yang Chen had been to Beijing City when he participated in the scientific expedition before, and there was no such thing as being unfamiliar with the road. In order to alleviate his brother's embarrassment, he smiled and said, "But to be honest, your brother and I met here today are very similar to a pair of famous brothers, they are also a big man and a second lang. ”

"Oh? But which brother is it? Yang Chen subconsciously asked. immediately thought of the answer, and immediately snorted his brother: "You kid has learned to be clever, you are scolding me for being Wu Dalang!" ”

Wu Dalang and Wu Erlang Wu Song met for the first time in the Water Margin when the latter rode a high-headed horse and was surrounded by the people to celebrate after the tiger became a hero. It's just that the gap between the two brothers is far greater than that of the Yang family brothers.

Yang Zhen saw that his brother saw through his tricks at once, so he smiled: "The eldest brother is really knowledgeable, and the younger brother admires it." ”

"...... you" Yang Chen glanced at him helplessly, then thought of something, took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Yang Zhen: "This is what Miss Luo entrusted me to give to you before I set off from Hangzhou to Beijing." The girl is always thinking about you, and the two-year period that I said before has arrived, do you have any plans? ”

After taking the thick letter, looking at the familiar handwriting of Juanxiu on it, and listening to his brother's reminder in his ears, Yang Zhen's face suddenly stiffened, and he was ashamed in his heart. During this period of time, because of his good relationship with Zhang Jingyun, he did ignore Luo Yueying, who was far away in Hangzhou. Thinking of the woman who is willing to do everything for herself and is obsessed with herself, Yang Zhen just wants to give herself a big ear scraper who is not dedicated enough.

Yang Chen saw that his brother's face suddenly changed, and without knowing that he already had other women, he only said that he was sad because he couldn't fulfill his previous promise, so he comforted: "Actually, you don't have to be like this, Miss Luo is a good girl, he knows the difficulty of your career as a man, so he doesn't blame you for not being able to fulfill your promise." She once told me that as long as you can be safe and secure in Beijing, even if you let her wait a few more years, she will not complain. But Erlang, as an elder brother, I have to remind you, you must not be sorry for a person like Miss Luo, if you can marry, you should ...... earlier."

"Big brother, don't worry, little brother understands. As long as this Shanxi incident is over, I will take leave to marry Yueying back! Yang Zhen interrupted his brother's advice with a very resolute sentence, which was meant to be heard by Yang Chen, and also to himself.

"That's good." Yang Chen nodded and said no more.

Just when Yang Zhen was about to say goodbye to his brother and return to the team, Cai Yingyang, who had been watching from the side and had never spoken, suddenly interjected angrily: "Second brother, are you going to Shanxi to fight tartars?" ”

Yang Zhen was stunned for a moment when he heard him ask this question, and then laughed: "Maybe I can really meet the Tartar here." Why, you're also interested in this? ”

"Will you take me with you?" As soon as he heard that this was the case, Cai Yingyang suddenly became interested, and said eagerly: "I have always heard from people in my hometown how Mongolian Tatars bullied us Han people in the past, and I have thought since I was a child that I could kill a few Tatars to make us Han people angry." It's just that there has never been a chance. This time, second brother, you are going to Shanxi, so take me with you. As he spoke, he looked pleading.

Yang Zhen didn't expect him to make such a request, and he couldn't help but be stunned. But then, I thought that going to Shanxi is indeed in danger, and if I can bring Cai Yingyang, a person who is loyal and obedient, and has a lot of ability, I can indeed have a little more protection. He nodded and said, "If you don't feel that you are too tired to come to Beijing all the way from Zhejiang, you can go to Shanxi with me." "As a Jinyi Wei Qianhu, and the deputy who went to Shanxi on an errand this time, it is easy for Yang Zhen to arrange a few people to go to Shanxi together.

"Really? I'm not tired, not tired at all! Seeing that Yang Zhen agreed to his request, Cai Yingyang suddenly smiled, if it weren't for the people around him, he would have jumped up with joy.

"Big brother, you won't have an opinion if I take Yingyang to Shanxi, right?" Then, Yang Zhen remembered that Cai Yingyang was his brother's subordinate before, so he asked for his opinion.

Yang Chen shook his head: "I am no longer the county commander of Zhuji, and he is no longer a county officer, so naturally I will not hinder his development." Moreover, before coming to the capital this time, Patriarch Cai had asked me to find a suitable job for Yingyang. Now that he can go with you on an errand as soon as he arrives in the capital, how can I object? ”

"That's good, I'll take Ying Yang to Shanxi, big brother, as well as Ruan Wu and Wang San, you take care of yourself, and I'll have a good reunion with you after I come back from Shanxi triumphantly." Yang Zhen saw that the team had gone farther and farther, and knew that he couldn't delay too much, so he bowed his hand to Yang Chen and the others, and turned over and got on the horse again.

Cai Yingyang cheered, and also climbed on a horse prepared by Yang Zhen's personal guards, and quickly ran towards the team behind him.

Looking at the back of the two of them riding their horses away, Yang Chen's eyes showed a hint of worry: "If you go to Shanxi, you will definitely encounter a lot of dangers, I hope Erlang and them can go well!" After seeing the two of them completely integrate into the team and no longer see it, Yang Chen said to the people around him: "Let's go, let's go to the capital." The first task now is to find a place to stay in the capital. Obviously, Yang Zhen, who was in a hurry, completely ignored this point and did not arrange a place for his brother and them to live......

"Yingyang, why did you follow my eldest brother to the capital? Is your father so reassured that you will go a long way? After catching up with the team, Yang Zhen, who had slowed down his horse again, turned his head to look at the good brother beside him and asked.

Cai Yingyang scratched his scalp and said, "Although my father is a little worried that I will cause some trouble when I am out alone, he thought that there were adults and second brother you on the side to take care of, so he agreed to let me come out." And my dad said that a man should go out and have a good time, so that he can make a big difference. He also said that it is better to read 10,000 books than to travel 10,000 miles, and it is impossible for me to read 10,000 books in my life, so I can only travel 10,000 miles. ”

"Hey, I haven't seen you for a while, and my kid has really grown a lot, and he has spoken in a set of ways." Yang Zhen smiled unconsciously: "But there is one thing I have to remind you of, this is not a joke in Shanxi, there is a mutiny happening there, maybe there are Mongols or something mixed in with it, plus other accidents, it is very dangerous." As he spoke, Yang Zhen looked back at the carriage not far behind him as if he had a deep meaning.

Facing his words that seemed to be a reminder and a threat, Cai Yingyang didn't even frown: "What's there to worry about, don't you go too, second brother?" Moreover, I have always wanted to fight with those Tartars, so that they can know how powerful our Ming men are, and I am worried that they will not dare to come! ”

"You......" Yang Zhen patted him on the shoulder a little helplessly: "But this is what I admire about you." Let's let our brothers join forces and do something amazing in Shanxi! ”

"Okay!" Cai Yingyang symbolically agreed, and then let out a loud laugh, which caused the surrounding soldiers to look sideways, I don't know why this big man was so excited.

Seeing this, Yang Zhen beside him could only smile bitterly and shake his head again, this kid is really a confident optimist!
