Chapter 287: Back to Beijing
Xia Jin hesitated, still uneasy, and asked, "What you said really counts?" β
Chesar was depressed, so he had to promise again and again: "Count, naturally count." β
Xia Jin pointed at Ayina again: "I can't believe in her character, she just promised me to challenge the conditions in the book, maybe she will have to rebel after a while." You sign the challenge now and pledge what she agreed. β
At this moment, Chesar's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. Aina's words just now were said in front of so many people. Now that he has been said to be despicable and shameless, he has reversed his word, if he doesn't admit it and sign it, won't the reputation of Beiliang Kingdom stink out of the sky?
Looking down at Aina, seeing that although her eyes were closed, her eyes were rolling there, she knew that she was ready to acquiesce, and Chesar had to say to Xia Jin, "I promise you." β
"Then you sign it first, and then I'll release them." Xia Jin said again.
The young man who was held to his throat with a gun by Xia Jin was so angry that his eyes were red, but the pain in his neck made him dare not speak nonsense. Although he is the son of the national teacher and has a respected status in the Northern Liang Kingdom, he is nothing in the eyes of the Great Zhou Kingdom. The defeated country can't beat others in a war, even if he dies, he will die in vain, and the people of Beiliang Kingdom will definitely not turn their faces with Da Zhou for his death and stumble to the end.
Therefore, he had to signal Chesar with his eyes and ask him to sign it quickly.
Anyway, it was Aina's savage woman who suffered, and it had nothing to do with him.
Seeing this, the attendant hurriedly took out the challenge book just now. In addition, the clever soldiers of the Great Zhou Kingdom took out the four treasures of the study room and brought a table over. Chesar sighed secretly, wrote a line on the challenge book, signed his name, and also according to Xia Jin's request. I pressed my handprint.
Xia Jin put the gun back, and pointed to Ayina who was sitting on the ground pretending to be dead, and said, "Let her also press a fingerprint." β
Ayina opened her eyes suddenly, glaring at Xia Jin.
"What? Still want to stage villain behavior? If that's the case, don't blame me for spreading the word about your Aina's ugly deeds today. Xia Jin threatened.
"You're ......," Aina trembled with anger. She has never been wronged since she was a child. Today, not only was she held a gun to her throat twice, but she also repeatedly said that she had a bad character, and she was so angry that she was angry.
The most important thing is that she thought that she could win against Xia Jin nine times out of ten. That's why I agreed to the conditions on the challenge. But I don't want to lose.
Thinking that she is a golden and noble princess of the Northern Liang Kingdom, how many heroes and heroes and wealthy talents can't look down on, but she wants to marry the thirtie-year-old emperor of the Great Zhou Kingdom. Be one of his little wives, thinking of this, she will vomit blood, and she will faint to death. Where would you put your fingerprints on that damn challenge book?
"If you want me to be your emperor's concubine, it's impossible." She finally decided to play tricks. Said coldly, "Either pick a young talent from your country to be a colt in our Northern Liang Kingdom, or cross over our corpse." Our good men in Beiliang are not afraid of death. β
This time, Xia Jin didn't speak, just looked at her coldly.
All the Great Zhou soldiers looked at her and Chesar silently. The school grounds, which were still a little noisy just now, were silent at this time.
Cesar coughed in embarrassment, feeling uncomfortable.
Xia Jin turned the horse's head. ran to Cen Yi and Zhang Dali's side, and said, "I don't think there is a need for peace talks." What's the use of talking? Even if you sign it, it can turn into a blank sheet of paper in an instant. β
Cen Yi nodded: "Makes sense." He waved his hand to everyone, "Let's all go back." As he spoke, he turned around and left. And the direction of departure is not the tent of peace talks.
Zhang Dali and other generals who participated in the peace talks followed.
Chesar panicked and chased after him and shouted: "General, General......"
Cen Yi ignored it at all, got on the horse and left directly.
Xia Jin, Su Muxian, and Luo Qian left behind him.
When they arrived at Cen Yi's residence, everyone dismounted. Su Muxian said to Xia Jin: "You go back first, I'll tell the general about something." β
Xia Jin shook his head: "No." β
She is really not afraid of Cen Yi's blame. Although she made her own decisions on the school field, the two countries intersected, and their attitude should be tough, rather than blindly retreating. The Great Zhou Kingdom is a victorious country, and she really can't understand why she was led by the nose by the woman Ayina. The defeated country offered the princess over and kissed, this is the right reason. With Ayina in hand, is the Great Zhou Kingdom still afraid that the Northern Liang Kingdom will be disobedient? At least when the current King of Beiliang is alive, for the sake of his daughter, he will obediently cooperate, instead of choosing to go against Da Zhou.
Cen Yi let everyone into the tent, but stopped Xia Jin and said, "Xia Langzhong, you wait a minute." β
Xia Jin stopped.
Su Muxian also stopped and stood beside Xia Jin.
Luo Qian hesitated for a moment, and finally did not stay, but entered the tent.
Seeing this, Cen Yi glanced at Su Muxian angrily: "You go in first, I have something to say to Xia Langzhong." β
Su Muxian said lightly: "She is my fiancΓ©e, and her business is my business." β
The three of them stood not far in front of the tent, and their conversation was heard by the people in the tent.
Everyone looked out in amazement. Some people suddenly realized: no wonder Xia Langzhong is going to give a war letter to Aina. His fiancΓ© was about to be snatched away, so he naturally wanted to beat his rival away.
Luo Qian stood behind everyone, his eyes full of bitterness.
Cen Yi didn't expect Su Muxian to say this in public. After being speechless for a long time, he said to Xia Jin: "Come here." As he spoke, he walked some distance into the distance, enough to keep their conversation unheard.
Xia Jin glanced at Su Muxian and walked towards Cen Yi.
This glance was overflowing with tenderness, Su Mu was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed and followed upside down.
Cen Yi shook his head helplessly and said to Xia Jin: "Have you thought about it?" If you force Aina to enter the palace, she will hate you very much. In the future, she will be favored in the palace, and it is very likely that she will take revenge on you and the Shao family. Now that she has been forced by us to be ruthless, she no longer dares to point out that she must be an idle brother to be a colt, and send another good-looking young talent to her, and she will also push the boat to deal with the matter. I'll talk to Yun Zhou in a moment and ask him to make a colt for Aina. β
"Not necessarily." Xia Jin said very simply, "I'm not afraid. β
At this time, she could understand why these people didn't propose to let Ayina marry the emperor. It turned out to be for this reason.
However, this can't be blamed on everyone for protecting their lives, it is really important to be convicted in ancient times. In ancient times, they were all big families, and there were hundreds of people at every turn. Cen Yi these people. I also have to think about the lives of my relatives and clansmen. It's not something you can do by yourself without fear of death.
However, she is really not afraid of Aina's revenge.
Su Muxian listened to Cen Yi's words, and his first reaction was to worry. However, after hearing Xia Jin's two words, he immediately came back to his senses: If Ayina fell ill as soon as she entered the capital, and she had been lingering on the sickbed, it would be difficult for her to be favored. As for how to make Ayina sick all the time, isn't it simple? Liang Wenyu and Jia Zhaoming are now their own people. To drug Aina. borrowed their hands. The custodian is not even known to them. God doesn't know it, with the means of he, the imperial guard and Xia Jin, he won't leave a handle at all.
So. I'm really not afraid of Aina's revenge.
Xia Jin smiled again: "Besides, even if there is no such thing, do you think that the people of Beiliang Kingdom will not hate me?" β
Cen Yi and Su Muxian glanced at each other, and couldn't help laughing.
Really.
There are some things that others don't know. He and Su Muxian were clear.
I think that at the beginning, Bei Liangguo finally managed to get a cup. gave a cup to the Great Zhou Emperor, but was cured by Xia Jin. Later, there was another plague, which was also cured by Xia Jin. In the end, it was Xia Jin who got the drug out and turned the evenly matched tug-of-war into a one-sided battle. directly led to the defeat of the Northern Liang army.
Xia Jin was really right. Even if there is no Ayina thing, she is the one that the people of Beiliang hate the most.
After laughing, Su Mu said casually: "Uncle grandfather." Don't worry, Sister Jin has a lot to do. She said she wasn't afraid of Aina's revenge. Then I'm not afraid. Besides, Brother Cen is your beloved grandson, so you can't bear to let him leave his hometown and send someone to the fence? And his temperament, do you think he can control Aina? β
Cen Yi probably only considered the overall situation, and did not consider Cen Yunzhou's ability. When he heard this, he stared at Su Muxian with his eyes, and said for a long time: "It's really true." That stinky boy is a tendon, his mind is full of martial arts, where is Ayina's opponent? β
Saying that, he sighed, thought for a while, and said, "It's Luo Qian's kid who still has a bit of brains." β
Xia Jin shook his head: "Grandpa Cen, you don't understand women. Ayina likes Su Muxian, not Luo Qian. Even if Luo Qian went to be the Beiliang Horse, the relationship between the two of them was not necessarily harmonious. β
Cen Yi agreed with this statement.
Ayina likes Su Muxian, and Luo Qian has Xia Jin in her heart. Even if the two become relatives, they are in the same bed and have different dreams, so it's no wonder that the relationship can be harmonious.
"But King Beiliang only has one child, Aina, and it is very likely to inherit the throne, so I don't think I will agree to marry her far away."
"It's up to him." Xia Jin said.
Cen Yi nodded: "That's okay." I will do my best to facilitate this. He said to Xia Jin again, "Now that there is no war, the conditions at the border are difficult, so I should have let you go back earlier." But no one knew about it when you came, so it wasn't much of a danger. Now the people of Beiliang regard you as a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh, if you go back, I am afraid that it will not be safe on the way. So you stay here patiently for a while, and when our class teacher returns to the court, you can go back with us. β
Xia Jin didn't have anything to do when he returned to the capital. Although the conditions here are more difficult, I can't take a shower for a month, and I eat all meat. But Xia Jin can survive well in any environment, and this hardship is nothing to her.
She said cheerfully, "Okay, I'll wait for you to go together." β
"It's okay now, you guys go back." Cen Yi made things clear, and waved his hand to drive people away.
Xia Jin saluted and took his leave.
As soon as they rode their horses away, they heard a soldier riding over to report to Cen Yi: "General, Prince Chesar of Beiliang asked the general to come over to discuss the matter. β
Xia Jin and Su Muxian glanced at each other, smiled, and rode away quickly.
In the next half month, Cen Yi had an unusually tough attitude and talked with Chesar and Ayina about the verdict, and finally Beiliangguo finally agreed to be a vassal to the Great Zhou Kingdom, and sent the princess Ayina to the Great Zhou and relatives, and entered the palace as a concubine.
Half a month later, Cen Yi left some people to garrison the border pass, and returned to the capital with his army. Accompanied by not only Xia Jin's team and Li Xuanming's entourage of imperial doctors, but also Chesar and his bride Ayina who went to the capital to get married.
Luo Qian is naturally also in the army on the return journey.
I don't know if he really wants to open it, or if he cares about Su Muxian's blood flowing in his body. When he was stationed along the way, he often sent Le Shui over and asked Su Mu to go over and drink. Su Muxian has been on duty in the palace for two years, but he has also learned a little bit of long-sleeved dancing. He knew that Xia Jin's friendship with Luo Qian was different, so he intended to make friends. One has a heart, the other has an intention, and before they arrived in the capital, the two of them are as good as brothers.
Xia Jin was naturally very happy when he saw it.
However, to her regret, Luo Qian was always reluctant to see her. When I saw her, I pretended to be detached. He couldn't let go of his heart, and he couldn't be friends with her.
In the golden autumn season, when the osmanthus flowers are in full bloom, everyone returns to the capital with the army.
It is still the same restaurant where Cen Yi was sent on the expedition, Mrs. Xuanping and Mrs. Shao are waiting on the second floor with a group of female dependents, and downstairs are the men of the two families. Mrs. Luo fidgeted and kept looking at the window, and the handkerchief in her hand was twisted like a pickle. She wished that the next moment, the army would appear at the end of the road.
Xiao Shi looked amused and called her, "You better sit well." I've been waiting for most of the year, and I'm not in a hurry for this time. β
Mrs. Luo smiled and replied, "Okay." β
But she didn't sit for a while, and then she ran to the window to look around.
And like Mrs. Luo, there is also Shu's performance. It's just that Mrs. Luo is happy, and Shu's is worried. Thinking about the hardships her daughter endured, thinking about how she would be black and thin, she felt sour.
"You go back and see, is the tonic stewed?" She called Aunt Lu and instructed her.
Aunt Lu smiled: "How dare you slack off in the kitchen about what you ordered?" We stewed it before we came out, and we won't put out the fire halfway. β
Shu, who has always been good-tempered, lost his temper this time rarely, and said with a sinking face: "If you ask you to go and see it, you can go and see it, what are you talking about?" β
Aunt Lu only responded, called Uncle Lu to open the way, and the two of them squeezed out of the crowd with great effort, went back to the house to see the stew, and then squeezed back covered in sweat.
Their daughter is also in the army, so naturally she has to come back and wait.
Old Lady Xuanping Hou and Old Lady Shao were the most experienced in this matter, and they sent their subordinates to Shili Pavilion early to wait. As soon as you see the figure of the army, you will report it quickly.
From morning to afternoon, a fast horse galloped from afar, and when it came to a halt in front of the restaurant, the man turned over and cried out, "The army has come." β
The crowd downstairs suddenly stirred.
Mrs. Luo and Shu Shi, who were looking forward to penetration, each occupied a window, and they had already stretched their necks to look out.
"It's coming, it's coming." The sharp-eyed man pointed into the distance and shouted.
I saw a group of people galloping towards this direction on horseback at the intersection in the distance. (To be continued)
