Yue Yang's injuries were worse than Xiao Ren's, and he was almost better at this time, but he couldn't dance the sword yet.

Hearing that Xiao Ren was going to enter Beijing to fight the front station, he went to Zhou Zheng and asked Zhou Zheng to tell King Qin for him that he was also going to the capital.

As soon as he entered the yard, he saw a basket on the ground, sprinkled with grains, and a group of sparrows were eating grain.

Yue Yang suddenly came in, and those sparrows flew away.

Boss Zhou Cheng was not happy, and Yue Yang asked, "You kid is this gluttonous sparrow?" ”

"No, my uncle and grandmother want to eat roast sparrows, and none of the people around her can catch sparrows." Zhou Cheng said.

Yue Yang didn't know what to say for a while, so he ignored him, and asked the inner servant to pass it on and go in to see Zhou Zheng.

Zhou Zheng immediately agreed, and said with a smile: "As long as your body can hold on, then follow Xiao Qi, by the way, if you talk to Zhou Zilong, just say that Zhou Cheng is here with me, let him rest assured." ”

Yue Yang didn't expect this matter to be so smooth, seeing Zhou Zheng's proud look, he couldn't help it, so he asked, "Is there anything happy about it?" ”

The smile on Zhou Zheng's face was even bigger, and he said, "Of course, I have to be a ......."

Before he finished his words, an attendant coughed dryly, and Zhou Zheng immediately swallowed the words behind him, and said with a smile: "Of course I'm happy, can I enter Beijing so soon, can I not be happy?" ”

Yue Yang felt that there must be something else, but looking at Zhou Zheng's appearance, he wouldn't tell the truth today.

When he went out of the yard, he saw that Zhou Cheng finally caught two sparrows, and the maid packed them in a cloth bag and took them to the kitchen.

Yue Yang felt funny and asked Zhou Cheng: "I only caught two, but they are not enough to stuff your teeth, are you lazy?" ”

Zhou Cheng touched the back of his head and said, "Isn't this a national funeral?" There was no meat to eat, and my uncle and grandmother wanted to eat meat, but Mama Fang said that two were enough, and she didn't let my uncle and grandmother eat more. ”

National funeral taboo slaughter, catching birds is not slaughtered? Yue Yang couldn't figure it out for a while, so he simply didn't want to.

Yue Yang shook his head and asked, "I'm going to the capital, the third prince asked me to bring a letter to your family, do you have a letter for me to bring with me?" ”

Zhou Cheng said: "No, my father and my mother must have been beaten again when they saw me, you tell them that I am not dead." ”

Two days later, Xiao Ren and Yue Yang led 5,000 elite soldiers into the capital first.

The second, fourth and fifth children of the Xiao family went out of the city together, Xiao Ren had a little impression of Xiao Ergongzi, and the other two were not familiar with each other, after introducing each other, Xiao Ren asked, "Is Uncle okay?" How did you guys get here? ”

The smile on Xiao Er's face faded, and he said solemnly: "Father is okay, it was he who told us to come and pick you up, and he asked us to accompany you into the city." ”

Between the lightning and flint, Xiao Ren understood.

He looked at the city gate not far away, on which his father's head once hung high.

That year, he hid in Zhou Zheng's carriage, and although the chamberlains didn't let them poke their heads out, the two of them still quietly went to see .......

Xiao Er stepped forward, patted Xiao Ren's shoulder, and said, "Xiao Qi, don't be afraid, my brothers are here!" ”

The seven brothers of the Xiao family, except for Xiao Yi who is still in Baoding Mansion, Xiao Laosan, who just arrived in Baoding Mansion yesterday to discuss family affairs, and Xiao Liu who is in Xi'an, the other four are all here.

This city gate is a sword and a hurdle in the hearts of the Xiao family, and today, they walked over together.

That night, Xiao Ren wrote a letter to Zhou Tong, in which he wrote: My father will be relieved that he is under Jiuquan.

……

Like the last time, Emperor Chongwen's Zigong was parked in the Shouhuang Hall of Coal Qingshan, and it could not be officially buried until the imperial tomb was completed.

The civil and military palaces and the people are forbidden to sing silk and bamboo music within 100 days, and slaughter is forbidden within 7749 days, and marriage is prohibited within a month. The major temples and Taoist temples in the capital ring the bell 30,000 times, the Great Xiangguo Temple as a royal temple, 9981 monks chant the scriptures for the Daxing Emperor in the coal Qingshan.

Xiao Ren entered Beijing this time, in addition to his own people, Zhou Tong allocated him another twenty Tartar troops, including Lao Ke and his two apprentices Dahua and Ersan.

The three of Lao Ke's apprentices arrived in the capital two days earlier than Xiao Ren, and Xiao Ren had just settled down after entering Beijing, when Xiao Ren came in and said, "Seven Shao, Ke Lao is here." ”

Lao Ke was dressed in coarse cloth clothes, with a dry tobacco stick on his waist, and at first glance he was a country man who came to the capital to beg for a living.

"Seven Shao, the Tibetan scripture building of the Great Xiangguo Temple can't be mixed in, but the second and third and Dahua went to Coal Qingshan, thanks to the help of Li Houye, they were mixed in the Flying Fish Guard stationed in Coal Qingshan, and the eighty-one monks sent by Daxiangguo Temple have confirmed one by one, and there is no pair of masters and apprentices that Miss Tong said."

The pair of master and apprentice that Zhou Tong said were the two monks who had appeared in the Shouhuang Hall when Emperor Chongwen faked his death last time, and the younger one of them also dug out the head of the fake Yang Jincheng and put it on the offering table.

Because the little monk in it has no incense scars, and the person who said to the concubine happens to be able to match.

"No?" Xiao Ren asked.

"Sure no, and the monks who went this time, whether they were old monks or young monks, all had scars. The old man came over, just to ask Qishao, do you want to keep an eye on the coal Qingshan? Lao Ke said.

Xiao Ren pondered for a moment and said: "Don't keep an eye on the Great Xiangguo Temple, withdraw Dahua and Ersan as well, the three of you will go around the capital to see if there is anything suspicious, and I will ask Feiyuwei to give you a copy of the situation of the True Immortal Sect in the capital that they currently have." ”

After Lao Ke left, Xiao Ren thought for a while, and said to Xiao Lizi: "You send a post to Zongren Ling for me, just say that I want to visit his old man's house." ”

The next day, when Xiao Lizi went to the clan camp, he happened to meet Yueyang's little servant Baoping.

Baoping went to Zhou Zilong's house, Zhou Zilong was not at home, all the men in the family were not there, Mrs. Zhou had just quarreled with the concubine, and was scolding the street in the house, and the maid ran in: "Big lady, someone outside asked to see the old lady, saying that it was sent by General Yue under the prince of Qin, and he brought a message to the old lady for the third son." ”

Mrs. Zhou didn't make the names of these people clear for a while, and asked impatiently: "What Qin Wangye, what Yue Xiao General, which third prince?" ”

As soon as the words fell, she jumped in from the kang with a bang, pointed to the little maid and said, "What are you talking about?" Lord Qin? Lord Qin sent someone to find the old lady? ”

"It's not Prince Qin, it's the person sent by General Yue under the command of Prince Qin, he is a message to the old lady for the third prince." The little maid was startled by Mrs. Zhou and said timidly.

"The third son? Wednesday Childe? Isn't he dead? "Mrs. Zhou has finally sorted it out, and the son of Wednesday should be Zhou Zheng, the son of Prince Qin.

The little maid looked ignorant: "The slave doesn't know either." ”

"Change your clothes, change your clothes, I'll meet you!" Mrs. Zhou put on her shoes and shouted loudly.
