Yang Zhi's official identity was only to join the army in the five grades of the Great Xia Forbidden Army, and he did not represent the official recognized holy commander of Great Xia. The reason why he is willing to act as this messenger is entirely because of his spontaneous behavior in the face of Linglong, and strictly speaking, he can only be regarded as a friendly person among the people.

Whether the Northern Yan begged for tribute to Bactria or the Turks, it was not a glorious thing. So early the next morning, Linglong only used the county lord Yu Pei to go to the Erenyan army garrison and called two horses and some silver taels. Both of them changed into ordinary people's clothes, and still marched towards Yanjing as brother and sister. Linglong returned to her heart like an arrow, and endured the pain and just buried her head in the road, but Yang Zhi was worried that she couldn't stand it, so she slowed down her pace intentionally or unintentionally.

Linglong is the lord of the royal family of Beiyan, and he served Yang Zhi very considerately and thoughtfully along the way. From the time Yang Zhi left the inn where he settled every morning and went on the road, his clothes, shoes and socks were spotless from head to toe. In good conscience, as a man, Yang Zhi is not averse to the idea of male superiority and inferiority, but it is far from being as ingrained as other people in this world. He unconsciously gave priority to some of his habitual ladies, which often made Linglong feel a lot of emotion.

The news of the defeat of the Turks by Bactria and the assassination of Tuodu Khan and King Zuoxian on the same night had spread throughout Northern Yan. The people of Northern Yan hated the Turks far more than Great Xia, and they all rejoiced. When Yang Zhi and Linglong arrived in Yanjing seven days later, there was a rare scene of peace and tranquility in the city.

According to Linglong's casual conversation all the way, Dingbei Wangfu is a grand mansion integrating the Jiangnan garden and the northern architectural pattern, and its luxury is second only to the Dayan Palace. Linglong is back to her own home, so naturally there is no need to report. Before the two of them reached the main hall of the palace, they met a rich middle-aged man with two sturdy men in coarse cloth robes.

The rich middle-aged man immediately looked happy when he saw Linglong, and walked a few steps forward to salute: "County Lord, you can come back!" The prince is always thinking about you! ”

Linglong bowed her head slightly and said, "Butler, is my father in good health during this time?" I'll see you later. This son is a distinguished guest I invited, so don't slack off. ”

Seeing that the two sturdy men in coarse cloth robes behind him were still motionless, he frowned and asked, "Who are these two?" ”

The housekeeper glanced at Yang Zhi and said, "These two people are...... The merchants who came to purchase mountain goods from the Southern Tang Dynasty brought some high-quality tea and silk to honor the prince, and the villain was about to send them out. ”

Most of the goods in the North Yanshan are transported to Jinling by sea, and there are often merchants from the Southern Tang Dynasty in Yanjing City. Linglong wanted to report to his father the assassination of the Turkic Zuoxian King as soon as possible, and she knew Yang Zhi's intention, but she didn't have the heart to investigate it in detail, so she waved her hand and motioned for the housekeeper to take them away. However, Yang Zhi couldn't help but glance back, and the two sturdy men were talking to each other. Yang Zhi couldn't help frowning when he heard this.

Linglong personally took Yang Zhi to the guest room of the side hall and settled down temporarily, before going to meet the king of Dingbei. Yang Zhi paced back and forth in the room a few times, and muttered in a low voice: "Strange! ”

About an hour later, the father and daughter of the king of Dingbei came to the guest room of the side hall together. Linglong changed back into the palace costume of the county lord, and the cloud bun was lightly powdered, and it became more and more radiant. The king of Dingbei has sparse eyebrows and a long beard, which is quite chic and elegant. As soon as he entered the door, he was about to kneel with a solemn face: "This is General Yang who single-handedly killed the Tuodu Khan?" The general breathed a bad breath for the people of Dayan, please accept the worship of this king! ”

I met another acting master! Yang Zhi suddenly had goosebumps all over his body, and hurriedly helped him to deal with it: "The prince can't help it, the villain is ashamed!" ”

Of course, the king of Dingbei would not insist on kneeling, so he got up and gave a big high hat: "This king has just listened to the little girl and General Yang's all-round talent in civil and military affairs, not only is he brave and invincible, his wisdom is outstanding, but he also has outstanding literary talents and beautiful appearance. It is a great blessing for this king to be able to see such a god-like man today! ”

Come and don't be rude, and the high hat needs to be returned. Yang Zhi said with a smile: "It's not enough to worry about the cheap name, which makes the prince laugh." The prince's dedication to the country and the people is really the source of the deep blessings of the people of Dayan! ”

"General Yang has an overreputation." King Dingbei brushed his long beard and said sincerely: "Because Dayan and the Turks have made peace first, it is inconvenient to openly receive the general. If there is any rudeness, it is a last resort, and I hope you will forgive me. The matter of peace between Dayan and Daxia is very important, and this king will enter the palace today to explain this matter to the imperial brother. After the imperial brother and the king discussed with several important civil and military ministers, they would definitely prepare a letter of state to the Great Xia Emperor and hand it over to the general as soon as possible. I had to aggrieved the general not to reveal his identity for the time being, and first went to the Chengping Pavilion to stay for a few days and wait for good news. ”

Linglong was stunned when she heard this, and interjected: "Father, since this matter cannot be publicized, wouldn't it be better to ask Yang Gongzi to live in the palace temporarily?" ”

Wen Yan, the king of Dingbei, explained: "The government and the opposition have been complaining about this king who has been in charge of the military for many years, and General Yang is a fierce general of Great Xia after all, and if he lives in the palace, he is afraid that he will give someone a handle." What's more, General Yang has a noble status and is here for state affairs, so it is unreasonable and too contemptuous to treat him as a private residence. ”

What kind of distinction between public and private is noble and noble, Yunyun is pure nonsense, it is nothing more than the fear of being suspected of "connecting with foreign countries". King Dingbei wants to be a bitch and set up a memorial arch, Yang Zhi can fully understand, he can live anywhere, anyway, he doesn't care. Linglong couldn't refute it, although she nodded yes, her expression was slightly melancholy.

Yanjing's Chengping Pavilion is equivalent to a state guesthouse, because it is related to the face of Beiyan, the quality of hardware facilities and services naturally has nothing to say, and the king of Dingbei arranged for Yang Zhi to stay here is not a grievance against him.

The tragic curtain call of the Raid Legion was a source of great sorrow for Yang Zhi, but the dead were gone, and his desert campaign was a thing of the past. The feeling of Chengping Pavilion is no worse than that of a five-star hotel in his previous life, and his identity as a messenger is not visible anyway, so he just takes this opportunity to rest.

The three sleepy intermission programs are that the caller carefully prepares breakfast, lunch and dinner according to the menu he prescribes. So much so that the official of the pavilion naturally thought of the happy life related to pigs, and muttered vigorously: The housekeeper of the Dingbei Royal Mansion repeatedly told him to be careful to serve good guests, and he would not be a swaggering and deceitful bachelor who ate and drank, right?

King Dingbei and Linglong have not heard from each other, surrender is a painful thing after all, and it is normal to discuss it for a few more days. After Yang Zhi was treated as his father for three or four days, although he slept so much that his bones were crispy, he gradually began to be a little impatient.

I just wanted to take a nap in the afternoon, but I heard a commotion outside. The official who summoned the pavilion asked angrily, "It can't be the Turks calling, right?" How do people sleep with such a noisy noise? ”

"Childe laughed." Guan Yilang Guan Bao explained with a smile: "The Turks came to Yanjing to ask for tribute, and that was three months ago. The Turks were newly defeated in Great Xia, and the Khan and King Zuo Xian were assassinated again, and now the dragons are leaderless and too busy to take care of themselves. A few days ago, the king of Dingbei played the emperor and took the initiative to request that the military power be lifted and gradually transferred to the crown prince. The generals who had just arrived at the pavilion were transferred back to Beijing from the Jingzhou border to take office. I don't want to disturb my son's good dreams, please forgive me. ”

"Oh." Yang Zhi faintly felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say why for a while. After all, those are people's own affairs, and he is neither interested nor careless: "You go." - Hey! Have a plate of pine nuts and a pot of good dragon wells before the rain! Still sleeping with a fart? ”
