Chapter 583: Expedition
Finally, the day of the expedition has arrived. {}
On the last night, Xiao Mo spent the last night in Yu Niang's room, and Yu Niang also tried her best to cooperate with Xiao Mo this night.
The next day was the day of the expedition, and before the sky was completely bright, Xiao Mo was woken up by the jade girl beside him.
Yu Niang freshened up Xiao Mo and changed him into the robe made by Yun Xue herself.
"How? Isn't it handsome? Xiao Mo asked with a smile.
Yu Niang nodded and said, "Handsome, my father-in-law is the most handsome......
After that, Yu Niang leaned on Xiao Mo's arms and cried.
Xiao Mo didn't say anything, just quietly hugged Yu Niang.
Yu Niang cried for a while before leaving the room with Xiao Mo.
Outside the room, Mingyu was holding her daughter, Xie Yunjing and Xu Zhilan were accompanying Mingyu's side, and the three girls all looked like pear blossoms and rain.
"You guys are ......" Xiao Mo's throat was a little dry, and he lost his voice halfway through speaking.
"Official......" Xie Yunjing shouted, then Mingyu and Xu Zhilan, everyone came to Xiao Mo's side.
Xiao Mo wiped away their tears one by one, and then said with a smile: "Don't cry, the official will come back soon!" ”
In the tears of the women, Xiao Mo went out and was sent outside the palace by Xiao Yi's carriage.
Outside the palace today was different from usual, hundreds of thousands of forbidden soldiers stood straight outside the palace, they stood quietly without making the slightest sound.
After entering the palace, Xiao Mo came to the Jinluan Palace, and then found that in front of the Jinluan Palace, the Red Turban Army was also standing straight under the leadership of Yan Xilian, but he didn't see Yang Yanqi.
Xiao Mo wondered, and when he arrived at the Jinluan Palace, he saw Yang Yanqi still standing in front of the palace with a golden gun in his hand, and he was a little relieved.
Finally the emperor came out, Zhao Quan's body became more and more bad, and he even had to be supported by someone to walk.
"Go to court!"
The old eunuch helped Zhao Quan sit down, and then came again.
The early dynasty was still played by Ji Ping first, of course, today's highlight is Xiao Mo's expedition, so Ji Ping can't linger for too long.
However, Ji Ping didn't plan to play to Zhao Quan today, when it came to the end, Ji Ping could still tell the priorities, how could he say some trivial things at this time?
Anyway, the emperor has been in the capital, if you have an advantage, when can't you report to the emperor?
So Ji Ping said to Zhao Quan: "Your Majesty, today is the day when the army will go out, God blesses, there is no change in all parts of the country, it is the people who rely on Tiande, and Tiande is in my ......."
Later, Old Man Ji simply shook his head and read the article of worshipping the heavens, everyone could only listen to him quietly, and finally the civil and military officials came to the outside of the Jinluan Palace.
The chamberlains began to slaughter cattle and sheep, and before setting out on the expedition, they had to sacrifice to the heavens.
The process of sacrificing to the sky is very cumbersome, and there are many rules, Xiao Mo finally got to the end of the ceremony of sacrificing to the sky, and then saw Liu Yuzhi come out with a long bundle of bamboo silk.
Then Liu Yuzhi began to read the text! Xiao Mo almost fainted on the spot.
You don't have to toss people like that, do you? How long has this been going on?
Just when Xiao Mo felt that he was about to be tossed and vomited blood, Xiao Mo saw the figure on the side of the Jinluan Hall move.
Xiao Mo's eyes were sharp, and he could see at a glance that it was Yun Xue and Zhao Yao, just the two princesses in the palace, even if Xiao Mo didn't recognize them, he could guess who they were.
The process of sacrifice is serious, and the process of reading the text is also serious, Xiao Mo can't move, and his boss is also the most eye-catching, so he can only look at Yun Xue and Zhao Yao from a distance.
Yun Xue and Zhao Yao couldn't get too close either, because this was the rule of the sacrifice.
Yun Xue looked at Xiao Mo, she was so anxious that she was about to cry, and Zhao Yao was also standing by Yun Xue's side leisurely, constantly looking at Xiao Mo.
Finally, the text was read out, and then it was Zhao Quan's turn to step forward and lecture the soldiers.
Zhao Quan sat on the dragon bowl, he slowly stood up, and then the soldiers all knelt down in unison, shouting long live!
"Good!" Zhao Quan nodded, this is the word, anyway, what he said, the soldiers would definitely not be able to hear it, after finishing speaking, Zhao Quan said to Xiao Mo: "Qing does not live up to me, I live up to Qing!" ”
After saying this, Zhao Quan seemed to be very tired, so he waved his hand to signal that he wanted to go back to rest.
The soldiers knelt down again and shouted long live, this time to send the emperor to him.
In the end, it was Xiao Mo's turn, Xiao Mo turned over and got on the horse, and then he didn't say anything, just raised his arms and shouted.
"Hey!"
After the soldiers saw Xiao Mo, they were all excited, even more excited than seeing Zhao Quan.
Because in their eyes, Xiao Mo is hope, representing the hope of defeating the Liao State!
After Xiao Mo raised his arms and shouted, he glanced back at Yun Xue and Zhao Yao, and then smiled at them.
Finally, the army began to march, Xiao Mo walked in the front, and Yang Yanqi also followed the Red Turban Army with the army.
Out of the palace, to the streets of the capital, the people spontaneously crowded on both sides of the street, most of them have a bowl in their hands, the bowl is water and wine, they want to pay tribute to the heroes in their hearts, but also a kind of reward for these soldiers who defend their homes and defend the country!
The soldiers took the wine from the hands of the people, took a sip in a hurry, and caught up with the footsteps in front, Xiao Mo saw it, for fear of causing panic, so he deliberately slowed down the pace of the march, and Xiao Mo also dismounted and came to the side of the people.
"Marshal Xiao, drink a bowl of bar!" An old man hurriedly turned around and scooped a bowl of wine from the wooden barrel behind him, and then handed it to Xiao Mo.
Xiao Mo took the wine bowl, then came to the front of the crowd, and said with a smile: "Thank you fathers and fellow villagers for your love, Xiao Mo must drink this bowl of wine, and he must drink it all!" But before drinking, Xiao Mo has one more thing to do! ”
In the surprised eyes of the people and soldiers, Xiao Mo leaned over the ground, then pinched the soil on the ground, put the soil in the wine bowl, and then shook it well, and then drank it all!
"The soil of the capital, the people of the capital, the wine of the capital!" Xiao Mo shouted, as if he wanted to sing, which also caused the soldiers to follow suit. After Xiao Mo finished drinking, he said, "Brothers, let's go!" ”
The people and soldiers were stunned by Xiao Mo's actions, they really had never seen such a boss!
But at the same time, people faintly feel that this time the coach seems to love this land and this country more than them!
After drinking the wine of Zhuangxing, the army began to march all the way north, and in the next few days, they had to march more than 1,000 miles to the front line in Taiyuan, and then turn with Li Zhun's army to fight against the Liao army!
Their mission is to drive out all the Liao people who dare to invade! Drive out of the An Dynasty!
