Chapter 146: Entering Beijing
Chapter 146: Entering Beijing
Only two days after returning to Huyang, Li He had to leave again.
This time it was Shangjing to be sealed, and the road was not dangerous, so Li He wanted to take a few lesbians there, and the road would not be so boring. But when I went to the capital, I had to marry Miss Hua, and it was not good to bring all the women in the family. Who to bring? After thinking about it, he still decided to bring Xiangxiang and Qianqian, after all, they were his maids.
Although the other women also want to be with Li He, they are not unreasonable people, which is also the most fortunate thing for Li He, his women are everywhere from his point of view for his sake, thinking about it, I can't help but feel a little guilty in my heart, compared to what they paid for him, his love for them is really too meager.
Outside the Governor's Palace, Qingqing still caressed a parting song to see Li He off, the song was sad, and his relatives were in love; Ziyan made a lot of dry food and pastries for him, enough to eat all the way to the capital; Yue'er made several sets of armor and robes and boots for him, some of which he did when he was away, and some of which he stayed up late to do in the past two days, seeing Yue'er's bloodshot eyes and calloused little hands, Li He was really distressed, he was now used to wearing her clothes, and he felt awkward when he wore someone else's clothes.
Sister Yun Lin still told him a thousand times, told him to be careful all the way, and asked Xiangxiang and Qianqian to take care of him. After a while, she will also go to Beijing with Li Sihong to participate in Li He's wedding.
"Brother, what should Erfei feed it? It hadn't eaten for two days, and it squatted in the backyard every day and didn't move. Lianqing asked.
"Don't worry about it, it doesn't have to eat anything, just let it lie there." Li He said. Now that fire unicorn has been completely subdued by his silver might, let alone resisting, he doesn't even dare to escape. If it weren't for his father not to be too arrogant and low-key in Beijing this time, he would not have left such a good mount in Huyang and rode to Beijing by himself.
After saying goodbye to Ling'er again, and explaining that the girls took care of her, Li He slowly drove to the gate of Huyang City with his five hundred light horsemen and guards and a carriage carrying Xiangxiang and Qianqian.
The road was very simple, Li He rode on a horse during the day and hurried with everyone, and at night he went into the carriage to enjoy the fragrance and gentleness of Qianqian. When he is hungry, he has the pastries prepared by Ziyan, and when he is tired, he has Xiangxiang and Qianqian to massage him, but he is also relaxed.
After more than a month of travel, they finally arrived at the political and economic center of the Xia Kingdom, the capital.
From a distance, the majestic and towering city wall alone is much taller and wider than that of Huyang. There is a lot of traffic outside the city, a main city gate and three auxiliary city gates on both sides are people coming and going, in and out, more lively than Huyang, the largest city in the south of the Yangtze River.
Li He first led 500 guards to report to the camp of the Praetorian Guard outside the capital and assigned the camp, and then took Xiangxiang, Qianqian, Yang Jin and ten selected soldiers of the Guards to the capital.
Although the traffic volume of the capital is large, the inspection of entering the city is also quite strict, all swords, guns, swords and halberds are not allowed to be brought in, and everyone who enters the city must have a document issued by the government to prove their identity. Those who carry burdens must inspect their burdens, those who push carts must inspect the carts, those who drive carriages must inspect the carriages, and even the burdens they carry must be pinched and figured out, and it is forbidden to enter Beijing with prohibited items.
"You guys, leave your weapons behind." The soldiers of the Yulin Army in the capital outside the city gate actually stopped Li He and them, pointing to the notice posted on the city wall and said: "The capital is important, and it is forbidden to bring swords and guns into the city." And your carriage, too, need to be checked. As he spoke, he was already walking towards the carriage.
Yang Jin hurriedly stepped forward to stop the soldier, revealed his identity, and said, "This brother, we are from the Northern Expeditionary Army, and we are back to participate in the emperor's celebration ceremony." ”
The soldier glanced at Yang Jin's waist card, and saw that it was written as a deputy commander, and couldn't help but sneer: "There is an explanation above, except for the generals with the rank of general or above and their ten to twenty personal guards who can be equipped with weapons, other generals and soldiers are not allowed to enter the city with weapons, and those who violate the order will be taken on the spot." "These forbidden troops and defenders in the capital are somewhat resistant to those soldiers who have returned triumphantly from the grassland, feeling that they are not remarkable, and if they go by themselves, they can also come back with meritorious service, so they are especially unaccustomed to the soldiers who returned from the Northern Expedition, and always feel that they seem to be arrogant.
"Hugh is rude!" Yang Jin saw that the soldier stretched out his hand and was about to lift the curtain, and his heart was anxious, and the spear in his hand immediately crossed his neck.
"Huh? Still hands-on? The soldier was also on fire, and shouted behind him, and immediately more than a dozen soldiers of the Yulin Army drew their knives and rushed over. The ten guards behind Li He also raised their spears and escorted him and the carriage, these elite warriors who had just come down from the battlefield followed Li He to death several times, whether it was rushing into the Huaping Wilderness or attacking the various departments of the grassland, they all followed him around, and they never blinked their brows after experiencing life and death in the rain of swords, guns and arrows, how could they be afraid of these guys who may not even kill people?
Seeing that a conflict was about to break out, Li He rode his horse to the side of the soldier of the Yulin Army as if nothing happened, took out a bronze medal from his arms, and shook it in front of his eyes.
The soldier's eyes lit up when he saw the blue ribbon on the bronze medal, which was only available to the identity card of a general. Sure enough, the card was engraved with the words "General Pingyu", and in the lower left corner were the four small characters of "Tiger Army Li He".
General Pingyu? Tiger Army Li He? The soldier was stunned in his heart, and suddenly remembered that the world-shaking "General Huwei" was not exactly the title of "General of Pingyu" received by the imperial court? Isn't he the leader of the Tiger Army?
"Little ...... The small one has eyes and no beads, but I don't know if it's a tiger...... No, General Li is a big driver, there are many offenses, and I ask the general for forgiveness! The soldier quickly knelt down on one knee.
When the other soldiers of the Yulin Army heard that it was "General Huwei", they also knelt on the ground with their fists clenched, gave the highest salute in the army, and said, "Please forgive the general!" ”
Their reverence for Li He was not because of his rank as a general, not only because of his outstanding military exploits, various legends, and illustrious family background, but mainly because he suffered thousands of military staff for the soldiers in his battalion when he was in Mamenbao. Since that incident was reported, Li He's status in the hearts of the low-level soldiers in the Xia [***] team has risen to a height that no one has ever reached.
Such a general, who can fight, is very brave, and regards his subordinates as brothers and is willing to stand up for them, is the most respected by the soldiers.
As soon as the people next to them heard the word "Huwei", their eyes were immediately attracted, and they exchanged their heads and ears, and they couldn't help but wonder if Li He was the mighty general of Huwei. After all, the Tiger General rode a fire unicorn and held a black battle axe, and he only rode a war horse, his hands were empty, and he was even wearing an ordinary gray robe, although he looked mighty and extraordinary, he didn't look like the legendary Tiger Wei General.
Li He didn't embarrass the Yulin Army soldiers, put away his identity cards, and continued to ride his horse forward, and Yang Jin and the carriage immediately followed.
After Li He walked over, the kneeling Yulin Army soldier stood up, grabbed the clothes of another soldier next to him, and said excitedly: "Damn, I saw General Huwei, I saw the real General Huwei!" ”
"I know, I know, I see it." Another soldier said, "Although he didn't ride the Fire Qilin as rumored, the kind of momentum on his body would definitely not be able to be practiced if he hadn't been killed for a long time." ”
"yes." The soldier sniffed and said, "I just smelled the blood on the battlefield." ”
"That...... Is it really Huyang's Huwei general? An old man who came to be examined said.
"That's it! can't be fake, the identity card of the 'General Pingyu' can't be faked. Besides, in the Xia Kingdom, who dares to pretend to be General Huwei? The Li family is all over the world, and they are not afraid of being pinched to death. The soldier said and pinched the burden under inspection, and suddenly he was stunned, opened it and took out a cold sharp weapon, threw it to the old man, and said, "This thing can't work!" Not allowed in the city! ”
"This ...... These are scissors......" The old man said with a bitter face: "The villain is a tailor, and he can't live without scissors." ”
"Fuck you, do you have such long scissors? It's long enough for you to cut your neck, this is a murder weapon, you can't bring it in, don't talk nonsense! The soldiers of the Yulin Army brutally pushed him away and said to the back: "Next, hurry up, hurry up!" ”
Besides, Li He and his entourage, after entering the capital, walked directly along the main street.
This street is really wide, the street in Huyang is already wide, but this main road in the capital is more than twice as wide as the one in Huyang. But even so, the pedestrians above still seem a little crowded, and it is really crowded.
The shops here are really big, almost every door is twice as wide as the normal store, and it seems that the business is thriving.
The buildings here are also higher than those in Huyang, but they are high, and there are almost no elegant and luxurious restaurants like Piaoxiang Lou and Wangque Lou.
Li He came to the capital for the first time today, which couldn't help but give him a feeling like he had traveled from Hangzhou to Shanghai in his previous life. Compared with Huyang, the capital is more lively, prosperous and spectacular.
"By the way, where does the eldest brother live?" Li He suddenly remembered that when he entered the capital, he was going to his brother Li Ming.
"Let's go, go to Suzaku Street!" Li He waved his hand and said to Yang Jin.
Seeing that Yang Jin was still stunned and looked at herself still, she couldn't help but say, "Why are you staying there?" Let's go. ”
"General, where are we going?"
"Suzaku Street."
"Where's Suzaku Street?" Yang Jin asked, this is the first time he has come to the capital.
"You're not going to ask!"
