Chapter 46: Ambush
Four days later, the army led by Zhang Xunfu arrived in the capital, and Xuanyuan Kun led the ministers to greet him at the gate of the palace.
Looking at the team coming from afar, everyone was full of joy, only Lin Zhihuan, the general of the town army, frowned and looked unhappy.
He deliberately said that he was sick this time, and did not send troops, because he saw that this battle was bound to lose, but he didn't expect that Bai Chuxia's woman would be so arrogant, so that Zhang Xunfu's old horseman would win so gorgeously.
Thinking of Zhang Xunfu winning the battle again this time, he was really angry in his heart, he had also fought countless battles over the years, but he had always been committed to him, he was really unwilling.
Until the entire army arrived at the gate of the palace, Zhang Xunfu dismounted and walked in front of Xuanyuan Kun, knelt down with his fists clenched and said, "Minister, see the king." ”
Zhang Guodong in the back, the seven lieutenants, and the officers and soldiers behind all knelt down and bowed, "See the king." ”
Xuanyuan Kun hurriedly stepped forward to help Zhang Xunfu up, "Aiqing, hurry up." Then he said aloud to the group of officers and soldiers kneeling behind, "Get up!" ”
"Thank you, the king." Everyone thanked and stood up.
Xuanyuan Kun patted Zhang Xunfu on the shoulder and sighed, "Aiqing has fought this battle for nearly three months, and today I finally returned from a big victory, and I have prepared a banquet to celebrate Aiqing's achievements." ”
"Minister, thank you, Your Majesty." Zhang Xunfu hugged his fists and thanked him.
Xuanyuan Kun smiled at this time, looked at the generals and officers and soldiers behind him, and said in a deep voice, "Generals, I have prepared a banquet today, and I will celebrate your achievements and reward you for your merits on a later date." ”
"Thank you, the king." Everyone thanked them in unison, and then followed Xuanyuan Kun towards the palace.
Xuanyuan Ming glanced at the entire team, did not see Bai Chuxia's figure, looked at Xuanyuan Kun and Zhang Xunfu walking in front of him, paused, and waited for Zhang Guodong to pass by and said, "General Zhang." ”
Hearing Xuanyuan Ming call himself, Zhang Guodong clasped his fists and saluted, "Lord Ming." ”
"Why didn't you see Chu'er?" Xuanyuan Ming asked.
Hearing Xuanyuan Ming ask about Bai Chuxia, Zhang Guodong replied, "Back to the words of the prince, Chu'er couldn't ride a horse because she was injured, so she took a carriage back to Beijing, presumably she would be able to reach the capital in about three days." ”
"But it's serious?" Xuanyuan Ming frowned slightly.
"Although the process is dangerous, the good thing is that there is no obstacle now, but the wound has not healed and needs to be slowly recuperated." Zhang Guodong said truthfully.
"Okay."
Hearing that Bai Chuxia had already improved a lot, Xuanyuan Ming was also a little relieved, and walked quickly to his original position and walked towards the main hall.
Walking to the main hall, everyone sat down, the eunuch palace maid served the meal, Xuanyuan Kun got up from the dragon chair, held the wine glass and said loudly, "This defeat of the Yan army is really happy, I respect the generals, and celebrate your triumphant return." ”
The other ministers also picked up their glasses and said in unison, "I wish you all the generals a triumphant return." ”
Zhang Xunfu, Zhang Guodong and the seven captains stood up, neither humble nor arrogant, and said in unison, "Thank you, Your Majesty." Then he drank it all.
Putting down the wine glass, Xuanyuan Kun remembered Bai Chuxia at this time, looked at Zhang Xunfu, and asked, "Why didn't you see Bai Chuxia in the team returning to Beijing?" ”
"Back to the king," Zhang Xunfu got up and clasped his fists and replied, "Chu Xia's body has not recovered, and it is not suitable for riding a horse, so the minister asked her to follow in a carriage, and she will arrive in the capital in less than three days." ”
"Okay."
Xuanyuan Kun nodded and said in a deep voice, "She has made a lot of contributions to this battle, and when she returns to Beijing, I will definitely reward her meritorious deeds." ”
"Minister, wait for Chu Xia to thank the king." Zhang Xunfu hugged his fists and thanked him, his face was calm, but he was a little uneasy in his heart, he didn't want Bai Chuxia to get much reward, he was afraid that she would attract jealousy.
Hearing Xuanyuan Kun's words, a trace of strangeness flashed in Xuanyuan Ming's eyes, and it flashed.
On the day Bai Chuxia left, he was still thinking, could she, a woman, still make this war a victory? Although she was puzzled, seeing that her father did not stop it and sent secret guards to protect her, she should also have some ability.
I didn't expect her to give him such a surprise, such a great military feat, for her and for him, there is no harm.
Prince Xuanyuan Che frowned slightly, thinking about how to win over Bai Chuxia, although Bai Junxiong was his person on the surface, but Bai Chuxia had a marriage contract with the fourth child, if it was about distance and proximity, it must be closer to the fourth child.
Unexpectedly, she has been unknown, and there have been endless rumors since she was married, and this time she has won such a great military feat, Yu Laosi, he felt some pressure.
Thinking that Bai Chuxia would arrive in the capital in three days, Xuanyuan Kun announced that the celebration banquet was scheduled for four days later.
Three days later.
In the carriage, he had been walking on the road for seven days, Bai Chuxia's body was much better than before, and his wounds were no longer painful.
Thinking that she would arrive in the capital today, if she felt a little inappropriate to wear men's clothes again, she woke up from the inn in the morning and put on women's clothes, and so did Begonia.
Thinking that he was about to see Jinxiu, his father-in-law, and his mother-in-law, Bai Chuxia couldn't help but show a smile on the corner of his mouth. Seeing this, Haitang asked, "Miss thought of something happy and smiled so happily." ”
"Guess." Rare to be happy, Bai Chuxia blinked mischievously.
Haitang pretended to meditate, her eyes rolled, and the thief smiled, "Miss, didn't you think of Miss Zhang and Mrs. Zhang." ”
"Hey, hey." Bai Chuxia smiled but did not speak.
Haitang also smiled, in addition to Miss Zhang, Mrs. Zhang and Master Zhang in the capital, who else can make Miss so concerned!
The carriage moved forward slowly, and it would arrive at the gate of the capital in less than two hours, and at this moment, Yuan Yi looked at the surrounding forest, his eyes darkened, and he waved his hand behind him, with a cold face, "Stop." ”
Hearing Yuan Yi shout to stop, Zhang Huai looked at him suspiciously, and seeing his serious face, he couldn't help but look around, and suddenly felt that something was wrong.
The other guards immediately surrounded the carriage in a circle and protected it, and the vigilant surroundings maintained a state of battle.
Yuan Yi closed his eyes, his ears moved, listening to the sounds around him, his eyes became darker and darker, and there were so many people.
Seeing the carriage stop, Haitang lifted the curtain and asked, "What's wrong?" How did it stop? ”
"There's an ambush." Yuan Yi said coldly.
Hearing Yuan Yi say that there was an ambush, Haitang was suddenly startled, and hurriedly put down the curtains, with a nervous face, "Miss, there is an ambush, what should I do?" ”
Bai Chuxia's face was calm, and his lips hooked a disdainful smile, ambush? To whom? She?
Thinking that the person who shot at her at this time, in addition to Bai Wanxia and Xu, it was Lin Zhihuan, the general of the town army.
Who the hell is it? We'll see how many people are ambushed later.
