Chapter 415 Good news arrives in Beijing
Xianyang City, as soon as the hour arrived, Xue Pinggui, Zhuang Ji, and Zhou Yan poked their heads out and looked at the city gate. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The place where the three of them met this time did not choose Qingyun Tower, but Xianyang North City, a restaurant very close to the city gate.
Although business is thriving here, it is a mixture of three religions and nine streams. In addition to some wealthy people from poor families, there are also many unidentified people.
Under normal circumstances, they would not set foot in this place under any circumstances. But today is different, Xue Pinggui had already booked a private room in this building, and then the three of them waited here at the beginning of the day.
And not only a few of them, but some powerful people in Xianyang City also set up a room in this vicinity early, just waiting for a certain moment to come.
Sure enough, just after the hour, the grand main gate of the North City slowly opened in a roar.
Xue Pinggui raised his eyebrows slightly, and his eyes showed joy: "It seems that the rumor is true!"
It is necessary to know that this 'Anyuan Gate' in Xianyang North City has four sides and five door openings. In normal times, no matter the nobles and ordinary people, they can only walk out of the side door to enter, which is a product of official residence, and it is no exception.
There are only a few situations where you can walk from the main gate - such as a suburban festival, such as an emperor's travel, a large army going on an expedition, and so on.
And Lubu Feijie is one of them.
"The main door opened, and it actually openedβ"
"Is it true? Could it be that the Huns were really defeated?"
"How is it possible, maybe there is another reason. β
"The news of my family is that the Anguo Gongfeng beheaded hundreds of thousands of Huns, I don't know if it's true or not?"
"That's a rumor, right?
"I don't know if it's true, but since the 19th, there has been a lot of traffic in front of Anguo Mansion-"
The environment of this wine is far inferior to that of Qingyun Building, and the sound insulation effect is almost equal to none. The three of them only heard the noise coming from all directions.
Zhuang Ji raised his eyebrows, but Zhou Yan was silent and didn't speak, looking at the gate of the city fixedly.
They didn't have to wait long, and only a moment later, eighteen knights dressed in black and black armor stepped in at a rapid pace along the gallop path.
They are all brightly armoured, using the best dragon horses, and each knight holds a flag high.
Xue Pinggui looked at it from a distance, and saw that on the flag, there was a line of words written like a dragon flying and a phoenix dancing-
"On May 18, the twenty-eighth year of the Heavenly Sage, An Guogong, the envoy of the Wanzhou Festival, supervised the military victory of the Wanzhu Dynasty, defeated the Huns in Hanquanyuan by 1.12 million, beheaded 790,000 people, and reduced the 120,000 people.
When these eighteen horses entered the city, Xue Pinggui could clearly hear the sound of inhalation coming from the upper and lower floors. After that, it was polarized, some people celebrated with each other, and some people scolded angrily.
"What an Anguo Gong! From now on, the four northern states will be fixed-"
"Sure enough, it's Jiangmen Huzi, it's good! This is really saving the people of Jizhou from fire and water!"
"Fortunately, fortunately, the Huns were defeated, and presumably not long after, Jizhou will be able to survey and pacify the war. We and the people of Jizhou can finally return to our hometown,"
"It's fake, isn't it? Don't you say that guy is a well-known straw bale?"
"Fake? The previous good news can't all be fake? Otherwise, the Lord of the Government Hall and the Privy Council, Anken will let that one go?"
"It's ridiculous! The head of the four evils of Xianyang has now turned the tide and become the pillar of the imperial court, which is really interesting-"
"I always think it's too unbelievable. If you want to say that An Guogong personally defeated the enemy, I will never believe it. Or his subordinates, who are not capable. β
"But it's good that he can do that. This person has such a sense of knowledge, and it is also my great Qin's luck!"
Xue Pinggui even heard a few girls' voices, which reached his ears.
"This An Guogong is so powerful, he is less than sixteen years old-"
"It is said that he is very handsome, and he is not lost to the prince of Xiangyang. β
"I heard my father and mother say. They especially admired this one. Five years of forbearance, debauchery. After the time came, the sword was cold in all directions! Not only did he sweep away his enemies and destroy the Wuyang Ying clan, but now he is turning the tide and ruling over hundreds of thousands of rabble, pacifying the chaos. It is the so-called once spread your wings for 90,000 miles, and you will win the good news and play a triumphant song. β
"It is said that Yingchong does not have a concubine yet, right? I heard that in the past few days, many matchmakers have been waiting at the door of Anguo Mansion. β
Xue Pinggui couldn't help twitching the corners of his lips slightly, thinking to himself that they had indeed been acting nonsense in the past few years, but in the mouths of these noble women, they had become debauched.
It seems that there are quite a few people who are devoted to Yingchong. That guy actually became a character like a king.
Zhuang Ji had already returned to his seat, and while pouring wine, he smiled hesitantly: "I know, how can Yingchong lose! Come and have a drink, it's rare to be in a good mood today!"
Zhou Yan glanced at this guy's naΓ―ve state, then snorted softly, and turned his gaze to the window again: "I said Pinggui, when you intersected with Ying Chong, did you think that he would have today?"
"Nope!"
Xue Pinggui admitted frankly: "But a long time ago, I already felt that Yingchong was extremely wise and had an extraordinary mind. In particular, his views on current affairs are unmatched by anyone I know. β
Among the four, he actually only felt that Ying Chong was his kind. Full of talent, but nowhere to show.
"And what about you? Why did you intersect? It can't be because of the fight you fought in the horse market in the past?"
"Me?"
Zhou Yan's eyes were blank, remembering the past scenes. He and Ying Chong don't know each other, and five years ago, Ying Chong forcibly snatched a good horse from him, and the two got married.
But there was a **** who was kidnapped, and those bandits planned to use his life to extort money from the Zhou family. But because of Yingchong's clever tricks, he finally turned the corner and escaped from the tiger's mouth.
You need to know that among the bandits that time, there were several heavenly positions, but Ying Chong still helped him, and even almost put his own life on the line.
Since then, he has felt that Ying Chong is a friend to make.
"It's because of righteous anger, right? Don't look at that guy every time he gets into trouble, he is the fastest runner, but in fact, he cares about his brother's righteousness the most. β
"I see!"
Xue Pinggui bowed slightly, and then the eyes of the two turned to Zhuang Ji.
That Zhuang Ji continued to laugh heartlessly: "Ask me? Anyway, since I got mixed with him, I have never suffered a loss! Now my mother also said that it is always right to continue to follow Ying Chong in the future." β
Xue Pinggui shook his head slightly, thinking that he shouldn't count on this guy. Then he saw Zhou Yan's eyes on the other side, with a complicated expression, envy, hesitation, and helplessness.
He knew in his heart that the Tianshui Zhou family and An Guofu had different positions. Ying Chong won a big victory in the north, and a few of them were happy to see it. But for the Zhou family, it was real bad news.
But he didn't worry about it, this guy is not as simple as a gentleman. Although he could not inherit the title of Marquis of Pingliang, in fact, over the years, Zhou Yan had also gathered nearly one million gold and silver money in private.
"Zhou Yan, if you really feel embarrassed, why don't you talk to your uncle in detail? I don't expect you Zhou to put your eggs in the same basket. β
The Tianshui Zhou family has always been friendly with several Confucian families in the Qin realm. But whether the Zhou family will gamble everything on the side of Confucianism, I'm afraid it may not be-
The big valve of the family has always liked to bet on both sides. In this way, even if one side loses, it will not damage the foundation of the clan.
When Zhou Yan heard this, he couldn't help frowning slightly, glanced at Xue Pinggui carefully, and then shook his head: "I know about this matter, but I still hesitate for a while,"
ps: There is one more update, around 10 o'clock (to be continued.) )
