Nowadays, safe and smooth travel has become the greatest hope and the greatest luxury.

Han Xu stood on the side of the road, looking at the mountains in front of him with a solemn expression, and not far away there were two carriages and more than a dozen corpses.

The retinue was inspecting and simply burying the bodies.

"It's ordinary people, the car has been turned over, and most of the dead are young guards, as well as older men, women and young children." Zhongli came over and said to Han Xu.

Han Xu said: "If you can use a carriage and have so many guards, it must be a rich and noble family, and the dead are the older men and women, and the young men and women have been snatched away." ”

He shouted to a busy attendant, who hurried over.

"Didn't you say there were no rebels here? Therefore, I deliberately did not go from Jiangnan Road, but detoured to Henan Road and then to Shannanxi. ”

The attendant smiled bitterly: "My lord, there are no rebels here, but there are bandits. ”

Since the rebellion in Ankang Mountain, Great Xia has fallen into chaos, the government soldiers and horses are panicked, and the people are displaced, and at this time, the mountain thieves and horse thieves have also taken the opportunity to make trouble.

The horse's hooves sounded in front of them, and the retinue was immediately on guard until they saw that it was their own people who had returned.

"My lord, there are bandits on the mountain, about hundreds." The general of the Fengwei Army jumped down and said with an uneasy expression.

Uneasiness is not the fear of these bandits, these soldiers who survived several battles with Fan Yangjun in Xuanwudao are no longer as helpless as they were at the beginning of the troubled times.

There were more than 100 Fengwei troops escorting Han Xu, and there were more than 20 followers given by Mrs. Wu Shao, and the bandits who passed through here didn't want to hurt them, but it was not so easy to exterminate these bandits.

Han Xu looked ahead, the mountains were high and steep, and the forests were deep and dense.....

"My lord, this is the territory of the Loyal Army." The previous entourage said, "They may be busy guarding against the rebels and neglecting internal governance, and the bandits take advantage of the opportunity to cause chaos, and there are cities and soldiers and horses guarding in front, so we will tell them that the local army can use troops to suppress the bandits, so that the people's difficulties can be solved without delaying the adult's journey." ”

"Because the news of His Majesty's death spread, and there are soldiers and horses in the southwest and southeast who have descended to Ankang Mountain, and the small governor of Jiannan Province is still in the field, and Jiannan Road is managed by his uncle, but I am afraid that people's hearts will be in turmoil." Another attendant added, "My lord, we need to expedite our journey. ”

If you want to save more people, you have to plan the overall situation, Han Xu suppressed his anger at the bandits, killing the thieves didn't have to go in person, he looked further away: "Go to the city in front and tell the government to let them suppress the bandits." ”

It's just that he didn't expect that he would be locked outside the city gate this time, not to mention seeing the official mansion this time.

"We only let people in and out of the city every morning, and now it's overtime." The guards at the city gate said, looking vigilant, "And only ordinary people are accepted into the city, where are you soldiers?" ”

"We are the Fengwei Army, escorting the counselor Master Han to Jiannan Dao." The generals of the Fengwei Army introduce themselves.

Since leaving the capital, Han Xu has been traveling in micro-service, and has never been blocked from entering and exiting various places, and he also entered as a homeless person in Yingchen City, and stood up to stabilize the overall situation when the soldiers and horses of the government were panicking.

But now that he has directly reported his identity, the guards of the city wall still have no intention of opening the door.

"Feng Wei Army? Why come to us? They shouted even more vigilantly.

Han Xu was a little speechless, didn't he even hear the latter sentence? Or does the identity of the latter sentence irrespective of the official position?

The entourage stepped forward and said it again, introducing Han Xu's identity, and the guards at the city gate asked them to wait for instructions, but the officials who invited them didn't know anything, and after thinking about it carefully, the entourage had to say it in detail.....

Han Xu stood in front of the city gate a little stunned, did the events of a year ago seem like a world away? Have people forgotten?

The officials on the city wall finally remembered, but they still didn't mean to open the door: "Our city is small and remote, I don't know Lord Han, and I don't know whether it's true or not, so I can only offend, you bring soldiers and horses, and you can't let you enter the city." ”

What he said was also very reasonable, and Han Xu stopped the entourage who wanted to question.

"We don't go into the city, but there are bandits outside the city, and many passers-by are robbed and killed." He said, "You soldiers and horses go to suppress them, and these bandits are really harming the people. ”

The official sighed on the city wall: "Got it, thank you for the reminder." ”

This answer was very perfunctory, either he knew it for a long time and didn't care about it, or he didn't care about it now that he knew it, no matter which one was not the result that Han Xu wanted.

"What about your prefect?" He raised his eyebrows and took a step forward, "Let him come to see me, you don't recognize me, let him see the court documents and seals that he recognizes." ”

The momentum of the counselor did not panic the officials at the city gate, but he did not hide his perfunctory: "Lord Han, our prefect is busy, besides, His Majesty is gone, the court has also left the capital, the six yamen are empty, everyone in the capital can enter, who knows whether the court documents and seals are true or false." ”

Han Xu was furious: "You! ”

"Also, Lord Han." The official at the city gate raised his voice to interrupt Han Xu, "Now that the rebels are in chaos, we are under martial law in Henan Province, and other guards are not allowed to pass, Lord Han, please go back." ”

What the? Han Xu looked at the official angrily, and the official didn't give him a chance to scold angrily and threw his sleeves away.

Han Xu looked at his entourage: "There are no rebels, and the road here is not easy to walk." ”

His voice was angry and tired.

Compared to the cowardly officials of the Yingchen Mansion, and even the officials who colluded with Fan Yangjun to rebel, the officials here made him even more angry, although he was sure that this official had no intention of rebelling.

Refusing to allow other guards to enter and pass, this official is in the land for king!

Han Xu knew that Yu Fei had the idea of accumulating strength, so he didn't take the initiative to attack the rebels, but at least he had to save face, and now this official in Henan Province was already naked and undisguised.

When the emperor died, the hearts of the people in the world would be scattered, but I didn't expect it to disperse so quickly.

The entourage sighed lightly: "My lord, the rebels have no conscience at all, and at least they are still their own people here, and their own people will always have ..... with a conscience."

Before he could finish his words, a voice sounded from the already quiet city wall: "Where did you come from?" It's Fengwei Army, why are there two military flags on the car? Bah, is that the flag of the Zhenwu Army? ”

The attendant straightened his back: "Your Excellency, you see, conscience has come." ”

Conscience? Han Xu didn't quite understand looking up at the city wall, and there were several officers and soldiers on the city wall who were looking out.

"It is the military flag of the Zhenwu Army, Lord Han passed by Xuanwu Dao, and got acquainted with the wife of the military general of the Zhenwu Army, and the young lady of Wu personally gave the chariot and horse entourage." The attendant said loudly.

What's the use of saying this, it has been said before .... If the Zhenwu army comes, it may be of some use, the general of the Fengwei army muttered in his heart, but after hearing this, there was a commotion on the city wall.

"Ah, it's the Zhenwu Army."

"Look up for a long time, look up for a long time."

"Open the gates! Open the gates! ”

The footsteps were chaotic, and the heavy city gate creaked and really opened, and the generals of the Fengwei Army muttered in their throats, a little surprised and a little acetic, is a banner of the Zhenwu Army so useful?

......

......

"My lord, it's not good." A small official rushed in, "The city gate opened, and that Han Xu came in." ”

There were four people sitting in the study behind the palace and laughing, three of them were wearing official robes, and the other was wearing a green shirt, a scribe, and they stopped laughing when they heard this, and looked surprised.

One of the officials put down the tea in his hand: "Impossible, I have already told them to let them go." ”

This is the official on the city wall.

"Who opened the gates?" The prefect who was sitting in the middle asked, with a solemn expression.

The little official who came in looked hesitant: "It's a middle ......"

Before he finished his words, someone walked in, and his voice was crisp and loud: "My lord, it's me." ”

A young general in his twenties walked in, his face was delicate, he had two dimples on his face, and he seemed to be smiling when he spoke.

Seeing this young man, the prefect's face softened slightly: "Zhongqi, what's the matter?" ”

The young man who was called Zhongqi looked a little frightened: "My lord, that Han Xu was actually escorted by the Zhenwu Army. ”

The previous official frowned: "No, it's the soldiers and horses of Xuanwudao, I asked." ”

Zhong Qi gestured his hands and said this, and the officials in the room looked at each other, Zhenwu Army, indeed, a little scary.....

"Your Excellency, you don't know, it's scary." Zhong Qi continued, as soon as he spoke, he moved, and seemed to be easily frightened, "A group of Zhenwu troops just passed through Xuzhou, about one or two thousand people, Xuzhou said no according to the general's request, and as a result, they almost burned down the city....."

"It's too bold," the prefect was startled.

"The Zhenwu army doesn't think it's bold, they have even broken through the gate of the imperial city in the capital." Zhong Qi patted his chest and felt palpitations, "And they said that they were ordered by the emperor to dare to block and kill." ”

On the emperor's order, it is indeed true that Zhenwu Jun Wu Ya'er is protecting the court to save King Lu, King Zhao is dead, King Lu is the new emperor, if anyone dares to stop them, there is really a reason to kill them.

Several officials in the room stopped talking.

Although they made up their minds not to let the other guards set foot, they could not stop the emperor's order.

"So I asked Han Xu to come in, in case Han Xu invited Zhenwujun here, then we will be in big trouble." Zhongqi's dimples were full of uneasiness, "This Han Xu is passing by, so the adults will follow him and compliment him a few words, and I will let someone escort him away from our Henan Road." ”

The prefect nodded: "Then so be it." ”

Zhong Qi responded and withdrew, and the scribe sitting on the side looked at the back of Zhong Qi leaving, and asked in a low voice, "Is this from Jiannan Dao?" ”

.....

.....

Han Xu was invited into the room, and the idle people in the room retreated, and Zhong Qi stood in the courtyard and looked at the scribe who was led towards the back house by a small official.

"Go, and ask him who he is." He whispered to a small official beside him.
