Chapter 7: Rushing into the city
On the way, Feng Tianwan suddenly remembered that today was the fifteenth.
She became anxious and asked the coachman to speed up, and he had to enter the city before the hour.
Two hours later, it was almost under the East City Gate.
The coachman suddenly pulled the reins, and the carriage stopped.
"Miss Feng, the Praetorian Guards have guarded the city gate and won't let people enter or leave."
Feng Tianwan lifted the curtain and looked out.
The people on both sides of the official road seemed to be prepared, carrying all kinds of things in their hands, staring at the distance with their eyes blank.
Who are you waiting for?
Seeing that it was about to be time, Feng Tianwan knew that if he went back late, he would definitely not be able to catch up.
She asked the coachman to drive over, and who knew that as soon as the Praetorian Guard who took the lead saw the carriage, he angrily scolded: "What are you doing?!" Don't you see the road being closed?! Idlers are not allowed to enter the city now! ”
Zhisu pointed to the sign hanging on the carriage and took the lead in speaking: "Open your dog's eyes wide, is this an idle person waiting?!" This is the carriage of Fengfu! ”
Although the carriage is simple, the phoenix character written on the sign is particularly conspicuous.
Feng family?
In the capital, the family surnamed Feng is the Marquis of Anguo, but even if it is the Feng family, they must give way at this time!
The Praetorian Guard snorted coldly, "King Chen has returned triumphantly, and he will soon enter the capital, and everyone must step aside and not enter the city!" This is the emperor's will! ”
Feng Qian frowned.
Unexpectedly, it happened to hit the time when King Chen returned to Beijing.
King Chen is the emperor's younger brother, and he has just won the battle to quell the border rebellion, he really deserves such a big line.
Feng Tianwan rolled up the curtain and handed over a piece of gold, "Please make it convenient for my lordship, I really have something urgent to enter the city." ”
The Praetorian Guard's eyes lit up and he reached out to take the gold, but in the end he held back.
His voice slowed down, and he said, "Girl, it's not that I'm not happy to make it convenient, but the emperor's will cannot be disobeyed, so the girl should wait." ”
Feng Tianwan's heart sank and asked, "How long will it take?" ”
"I don't know, but don't worry, girl, even if it's dark, the city gates will be open, and you will be allowed to enter the city no matter how late it is." Praetorian Guard said.
Hearing this, Feng Tianwan gritted her teeth, if she couldn't go back today, her brother's leg would be useless.
Even if it is the emperor's will, she must disobey it.
Her eyes lit up, and she said coldly: "I'm going to enter the city now, get out of the way!" ”
The Praetorian Guard raised his eyebrows, "Feng family girl, do you know what the end of the resistance will be?" ”
As he spoke, he moved the saber at his waist.
At that moment, a handsome, dark-skinned man arrived on horseback and blocked the way.
"Let this girl go." The man wears this strong suit, and his speech is also crisp and neat.
The Praetorian Guard directly drew his sword, "One or two who don't know whether they are alive or dead, dare to disobey His Majesty's will, and there will be no mercy!" ”
The first knife, he directly slashed at Feng Tianwan first.
With a sonorous sound, it was the moment the man raised his sword, not only picking off the blade of the Praetorian Guard, but also cutting a cut on his wrist, directly abolishing his hand.
The picture was bloody, and both Weaver and the coachman turned pale with fright.
Seeing this, the Praetorian Guards have already surrounded them.
Immediately after, the token in the man's hand flickered, "Look at what this is." ”
The other Praetorian Guards clearly saw that the token was inlaid with nine gems and carved with a Chen character.
Everyone panicked, and knelt down with weak legs.
The man's face was expressionless, and the token had been collected, "Can you let go?" ”
The Janissaries hurriedly retreated to make way.
The Nine Treasures Token was given to King Chen by the emperor, which means that King Chen and I are one, and seeing this token is like seeing me.
This person is holding the Nine Treasure Token, where does the Praetorian Guard dare to disobey.
Feng Tianwan looked at the man, and there were still a few scars on his face, which made him even more ruthless.
"Thank you." Feng Tianwan breathed a sigh of relief.
"There is no need to thank you, the prince knows that Miss Feng is a person who will repay her kindness."
Feng Tian didn't have time to ask more, and the man rode away again.
Although she had seen King Chen once or twice in the Queen Mother's palace before, she had no intersection, and King Chen's words seemed a little strange.
"It's King Chen's convoy!" The Praetorian Guard looked not far away and shouted excitedly.
Feng Tianwan looked sideways, and the mighty team slowly approached.
The people who came on purpose were also restless and happy, and shouted for King Chen's Chitose.
There were more than a dozen soldiers in front of him, and the chariot in which King Chen was sitting was pulled by four horses, and was protected by six golden armor attendants.
The breeze was gusting, the light gauze curtains on the chariot were fluttering, and she could vaguely see King Chen sitting inside.
Dressed in red, dazzlingly red, he sat lazily, supporting his head with one hand, and his wide sleeves falling at his feet, like a beautiful picture.
At this moment, King Chen's gaze seemed to fall on her.
"Girl, King Chen's convoy is almost here, you have to hurry into the city, you can't stay here any longer." The Praetorian Guard reminded her.
The driver drove back into town.
Feng Tianwan frowned slightly, she was obviously far away, how could his eyes seem to be able to hook people's souls?
Nan Xuanchen, the thirteenth son of the first emperor, was handsome and beautiful, unmatched, and the ministers at that time said that he had empty appearances, but he was useless, and he was not worthy of being a king at all, and he had a fief.
However, three years ago, he went to the northwest to repel the enemy soldiers and keep the border passes, and no one in the DPRK dared to say that he had an empty skin.
Just in a past life......
Feng Tianwan lowered her eyes, her eyes were gloomy.
Fengfu.
Today is the fifteenth, and the Feng family has always had a rule that they have to eat together on the fifteenth day of the new year.
Before it got dark, the maid had already prepared the dishes and waited for the master to take a seat.
Mrs. Feng naturally sat in the first place, Feng Hou Ye just went out on an errand, Feng Tian went to Tianfo Temple late, both of them were not in the house, and the seats were naturally empty, so only Feng Qingjing came to the long house today.
After the second room Feng Erye took Chen and a pair of children into the seat, he waited for a while, but still did not see Feng Qingjing coming.
Old Madam Feng was already displeased, and her face became deeper and darker.
sent a maid to summon people, but the people from Jinhuatang said that Feng Qingjing was not feeling well and could not come to the front hall to eat.
Chen smiled and said, "Qingjing is fine in the morning, why is he uncomfortable in the afternoon, I will let Dr. Hu take a look at him later." ”
Old Madam Feng lost her appetite, got up and took the cane, "Qingjing's body is not happy, can you still eat?" ”
Old Madam Feng was worried about her grandson and didn't even eat, so Second Master Feng glanced at Chen and followed.
When I arrived at Jinhua Hall, the main house was not lit, and the maid in front of me stopped people, and it seemed that there was something to hide.
Old Madam Feng sensed that something was wrong, so she asked her to kick the wooden door open.
Feng Qingjing slept in a daze, and faintly heard a woman's scream ringing in her ears.
He was dragged down from the warm bed, he had a splitting headache, and finally opened his eyes to find that the Feng family was there.
