671 Entering Beijing 2
A group of more than a dozen people ran all the way to the direction of the capital, during which no one came to assassinate, and there was no errand, because Xie Chuyao was pregnant, this distance could not be too rushed, so he walked for a while and stopped for a while, so that a few women had more time to see the scenery of this world.
In the early spring, the rainy season is more than a little more convenient, especially the more drizzly and rainy days the further south you go, which makes their journey much slower, and by the time they return to Kyoto, it has been almost two months, and this time, it is the end of April.
In recent days, the clothes have become more and more refreshing, this person has become more and more energetic, Xie Chuyao's belly is getting bigger and bigger, and the six months of pregnancy seem to be big-bellied, but it is a little more honest.
"Sister, you look so cute like this, what is the baby doing now? Did you sleep? Ah Yimeng sat next to Xie Chuyao, with a smile on her face, she had a very happy life along the way, not only had the scenery to see, but also had snacks to eat, it was really like playing.
Xie Chuyao showed a smile and said, "He's playing now, he should be learning to swim." ”
"Swimming?" Ah Yimeng found that this was a new term, but she could guess the general meaning, "Is it the meaning of swimming?" ”
"Yes, he's definitely swimming at the moment, swimming from here to there!" Xie Chuyao said, and put her hand on her belly, letting her feel the baby's activities.
"Wow, that's amazing, but, sister, do you have water in your stomach? Can babies live in the water? She was curious about them.
Xie Chuyao nodded and said, "That's for sure, there is amniotic fluid in the stomach, and the baby lives on it!" Seeing Ah Yimeng's curious look, her heart felt warm, this girl followed herself all the way from the border to the Jin Kingdom, she could feel her own emotions, she really treated herself as a sister.
Ah Yimeng let out an incomprehensible "oh", and then quietly felt the feeling under her hands, she felt that all this was so wonderful.
At this time, Qingying opened the curtain of the car and came in, and said to Xie Chuyao: "Chuyao, it will be there in another hour, if you feel sleepy, you can rest for a while." She had a happy smile on her face, after all, she had been out for so long, and she must be happy to return to a familiar place.
After Xie Chuyao heard what she said, she lifted the curtain and looked outside, and saw a piece of grass and fields, with fresh air in her face, and a faint smell of rice in the air.
There has been a lot of rain these days, since the day before yesterday it has been faintly sunny, today is a sunny weather, the sunset that has not been seen for a long time makes her feel very sad in her heart, finally back, some things have to be faced.
Xie Chuyao looked a little distracted, which made Qingying and Ah Yimeng a little worried, they found that the closer they were to Kyoto, the more she lost her mind, and they didn't know what she was thinking, and they refused to say anything when they asked her, and always covered up the past with other questions, which made them very worried, and they wanted to know what made her so worried, but she refused to say, and they couldn't.
"Sister, look, we're almost in Kyoto, you should be happy, you see, the scenery here is so beautiful, I finally came to my sister's hometown, it's really beautiful here, much more beautiful than our tribe." Ah Yimeng said with an extremely innocent smile.
Xie Chuyao came back to her senses at this time, she opened her lips, pulled out a smile and said, "Ah Meng, just like it." She seemed to be distracted again just now, since something happened in her heart, this distraction time has been more and more, she will always imagine all kinds of scenes in the ions, imagine the scene when the emperor forced Shang Jingcheng to accept a concubine, imagine the scene she had to accept for Shang Jingcheng, every time she thought of this time, her heart would throb uncontrollably, just thinking about that kind of scene, she couldn't bear it.
When I returned to Kyoto, I had to face everything, not only on the royal side, but also in the General's Palace, my grandmother was old, and her father's death was a terrible blow to her, as well as Xiao Yunyi, and the fifth lady, they are all part of the family, and I don't know what happened now.
The more she thought about it, the lower her mood became.
Seeing that her expression was not very good, Qingying said, "Chu Yao, what can you tell us?" ”
"It's okay, it's really nothing, you were outside just now, you must be hungry, there are some dry food and snacks here, you can eat." This man has the strength to think about things when he is full.
Seeing her like this, Qingying didn't say anything, just nodded slightly, picked up the dry food and ate it, Ah Yimeng also saw that she was in a bad mood, and remembered General Xie's matter, so she also shut up, just sat obediently on the side, and looked at her sister in a daze.
All of a sudden, the carriage was eerily quiet.
Fortunately, the atmosphere did not last long, and soon they came to the checkpoint of Kyoto City, and it was only at the checkpoint that they heard the sound of cheers outside in the sky.
"Congratulations to His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince for stabilizing the border and returning to Beijing with honor!"
"Welcome to the return of His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince to Beijing!"
The shouts of joy made Xie Chuyao open the curtain of the car in surprise, and when she saw the city's citizens kneeling on the ground, she was a little shocked in her heart. The leader kneeling at the front was a group of soldiers dressed in military uniforms, and it seemed that the emperor had asked them to come and welcome them back to Beijing.
Shang Jingcheng was riding on a high horse, but he frowned when he saw such a scene, he waved his sleeves and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, hurry up!" He has never cared about fame and fortune, and when he was bowed down by these city people, there was no trace of turmoil in his heart.
When the soldiers in the lead heard his words, they all stood up, and the leader hurriedly saluted Shang Jingcheng with a fist: "Fifth prince, the emperor asked the villain to come and welcome you back to Beijing!" ”
Shang Jingcheng only bowed his head slightly, and let them open the way in front, although he told the city's citizens to get up, but they still stubbornly knelt there until their convoy was far away, and then they stood up.
Everyone had a happy smile on their faces, they felt that this was the blessing of the Jin Kingdom, and the five princes were the generals of their Jin Kingdom.
The soldiers opened the way all the way to the front, and they soon came to the most lively city of Kyoto, where the people were also kneeling on both sides like those at the checkpoint, and the pious appearance was touching.
Suddenly, a red-clothed figure burst out of the crowd and stopped straight in the advancing ranks.
The soldier at the front immediately drew the long sword in his hand, pointed at the person who came, and shouted: "Who is coming, get out of the way!" ”
The woman in red just stretched her neck, wanting to look at the person behind her through the soldier in front, and she didn't know who she wanted to see, but she didn't pay any attention to the shouting soldier.
"Hmph, it's really deadly!" The leader's cold lips hooked and stabbed at her, but at this moment, the woman in red was taken away by the man who broke out next to her, so she avoided the sword.
The woman in red glanced at the person who saved her, and couldn't help but scold with a cold face: "What are you doing with you, go back and tell my father, I will not give up, today I must explain to the five princes in person, I Jiang He will not be a concubine!" Although her father always persuaded in her ear, saying that if the fifth prince became the emperor in the future, the identity of this concubine was expected to be a concubine, but she didn't want to, and she didn't want to be manipulated at all.
The man glanced at her with a calm face, and wanted to pull her with his hands, but when he stretched out his hand, he paused again and took his hand back, "Miss, don't be too excited, it is unseemly to do these things in public, it is better for Miss to go home first, and then find the right time to talk to the five princes." ”
"No, I'm going to say it in front of all of them today!" Jiang He pointed at him angrily, "If you stop me again, be careful that I break your dog's legs!" ”
She was originally the daughter of Jiang Shangshu, and not long after Jiang Cheng, the secretary of the Criminal Department, was just promoted, in order to tie up with the emperor, he sold her, and even asked her to be a concubine for someone, although that person is the fifth prince, and there is a better name called Ping Wife, but she doesn't like it, she doesn't want to marry at all, she just wants to find a confidant and live her life in peace.
She overheard her father talking to his subordinates today, saying that the five princes were about to return to Kyoto, so they stayed in this Kyoto city, waiting for this moment, she wanted to tell the whole world that she should not be a concubine, although this approach seemed stupid, but she didn't care, she just wanted the five princes to understand that it was impossible for her to be with him.
The soldier who was about to advance again saw her stop in the middle of the road again, and the anger on his face became even worse, and the tip of his sword pointed at her and scolded angrily: "Get out, if you don't get out, I'm really welcome." ”
"You're welcome, I'm here to find the Fifth Prince, not to you, what kind of posture are you? Are you trying to kill me in the street? If this is the case, then come, let all the people of Quancheng come and see how the guards in your palace kill the good people! Although Jiang He doesn't know any martial arts, her momentum is not inferior to that soldier at all.
The soldier was stunned by her words, to be honest, he really didn't dare to act rashly, even now those people who were kneeling stood up and pointed at him, as if they were accusing him, but it was obviously this woman who blocked the way first!
When Xie Chuyao saw that the carriage had stopped, she couldn't help frowning and asked, "What's the matter?" "This is already in the capital, there shouldn't be any more accidents, right?
The light shadow also sank his face, and he got out of the carriageway with his sword, "I'll go out and have a look." ”
