Chapter Forty-Three: The King of the East and the West

Emperor Zheng's will has made earth-shaking changes in the pattern of Dazheng, and the originally tense northwest has temporarily calmed down, but the price is that the five states in the northwest are equivalent to giving them away. And the governor of Dazheng has reached an unprecedented number of eight people. Among them, there are three people in the northwest, and the three governors, including Xiao Yu, do not have the right to discuss the affairs of the five major governors, which is even more interesting.

In the eyes of those who care, the Northwest Army led by Xiao Yu and the Northeast Army led by the Shepherd have been disguised as acknowledging the fact that the feudal towns are being divided through this reward, and although both of them have been named the county kings, they are actually slightly different.

Northern capital.

A cavalry team came out of the gate of the northern capital and began to patrol the border of the northern capital.

"Congratulations to the Governor, congratulations to the Governor, this time I was named the king of Dongping County, which shows that Your Majesty is the governor of the capital, oh no, it is the prince, which shows that Your Majesty's reliance on the prince is really the blessing of the soldiers of the three armies of my northern capital. ”

A general with a bloated body like a pig sat on his horse and smiled flatteringly at the old man at the head.

The old man at the head is only in his fifties, but perhaps because of too many battles on the battlefield, his temples are already frosty, and his face is full of weather, and he looks older than his actual age.

The old man held the horsewhip and pointed at the fat general, and said with a smile: "You think this is a good thing? Your Majesty has a good calculation, and he named me the king of Dongping County, because he wants me to fight to the death with Xiao Yu, and then whether it is a victory in the Northeast or a victory in the Northwest, it doesn't matter to Your Majesty, it's just a dog eats a dog, if you lose both, it's even better. Do you believe it or not, if the northwest is pacified, we will definitely be next?"

The fat general smirked.

The old man who did not have much respect for Emperor Zheng between his words was the shepherd of the Northern Capital, who was named the king of Dongping County, and was also the current head of the Mu family. As for the fat general who looks very servile and condescending, he is the governor of the left capital of the northern capital, but people cannot be good-looking, in terms of the importance of the investigation of the recklessness in the herdsman, it is no different from Min Xing in Xu Lin, Sun Li in Xiao Lie, Zhuge Gong in Xiao Yu, and Qin Zheng in Emperor Zheng.

The shepherd continued to ride his horse forward, "Xiao Yu, the king of Xiping County, has never had the opportunity to see, and I am deeply sorry. At a young age, he divided one side, although it is because of the situation, but the situation creates heroes, and it is not simple. I once heard that Xiao Yu himself laughed and said that there is no hero at the time, which makes the shaft famous, and he himself is the shaft. Now it seems that he has laughed at us old guys. ”

Zha Mang said with a smile: "There are no heroes in the prosperous world, the prince doesn't have to be too humble, and now Xiao Yu is just on an equal footing with the prince, so why do you have to exalt him so much?"

The shepherd laughed and asked, "What were you doing when you were weak?" The king can also say that at that time the king was only a small captain. ”

Zha Mang rubbed his hands and said with a smile: "At that time, the little one had not yet joined the army, and he was a no. 1 character in the township, making friends with rangers from all walks of life." ”

The shepherd nodded at him with his whip and laughed, "There's a fart!"

Zha Mang was not ashamed, but proudly said: "The little one didn't tell a lie in this matter, back then in Nanlin Township, who dared not shout at the little one when he saw him?"

The shepherd laughed.

Although Cha Mang is flattering, his kung fu is average, and it is unbearable, not only will it not make people complacent, but it is a little greasy. Of course, he can firmly occupy the position of the number one henchman under the shepherd's hands, of course, not by this lame and uncheeked flattery, but by real military exploits. The older generation such as Shepherd Qi and Xu Lin will not be in the lead, but today's prime-aged generals have few opponents, and his ruthless and ruthless heart is even more terrifying. Treat his subordinates, the same is the strict military law, for those who dare to escape from the battle, like to use the skin punishment in the secret guard, so he is called the skin general.

Although it is spring, there is still heavy snow in the northeast.

The shepherd shook off the snow on the big cloud, revealing his inner robe, a dark black python robe, and the two dragons were particularly dazzling.

......

Since Emperor Zheng issued the holy decree, there are a large number of defenders, officials, and wealthy families in the five northwestern states to move to Guannei, and the mighty flow of people is not the end, and a convoy of 100 elite light cavalry guards at this time is against the current, from the Xiling Pass, into the northwest territory. What's even more strange is that this convoy went all the way through Shaanzhou and headed straight for Xihezhou.

This group of men and horses traveled all the way, and every time they passed a garrison point, a group of cavalry would be hung behind them, and when they reached the boundary of the central capital, there were already two thousand horsemen.

In the carriage from the Great Zheng Neiting, a middle-aged man with a brocade robe and a flower belt sitting, with a white face and no beard, sitting cross-legged, and a brocade box was placed on his lap, which was the holy decree of Emperor Zheng this time, and this middle-aged man was the eunuch Song Bao, who was second only to the eunuch Sun Shilin, the eunuch of the palm print.

The closer he got to the central capital, the more uneasy Song Bao's heart became, although he had been by Emperor Zheng's side for a long time, not to mention the prince of the county, it was not uncommon for him to be a prince, but such a county king with an army of 400,000 people, looking at Dazheng, there was a second one? Not to mention, not long ago, His Royal Highness the county king was still named Xiao Wei!

Towering in the capital.

Without any hindrance, Song Bao came all the way to the door of the mansion, which was located at the highest point in the central capital.

Seeing this mansion, Song Bao couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, he was born in the inner court, he could naturally see that the mansion in front of him was overdone, not to mention the prince of the county, even the prince didn't dare to live, in other words, this was the emperor's palace!

Today, the Xiao Mansion opened its door.

The generals of the central capital were lined up on both sides, and on the steps in front of the door stood a man and a woman.

After seeing the two of them, Song Bao didn't dare to take it as big as before, walked two steps quickly, and said sharply: "Song Bao, the eunuch of the celebrant and the eunuch, has seen His Royal Highness the King of the County and His Royal Highness the Princess. ”

Xiao Yu and Lin Yinping did not return the courtesy, still standing on the steps, Xiao Yu raised his hand and said calmly: "As an angel, Zhongguan Song doesn't need to be polite, please announce the decree." ”

Originally, the eunuch announced the decree, and the person who received the decree not only had to kneel three times and knock nine times, but also put an incense case, but when he arrived here, Xiao Yu not only did not put the incense case, but also asked Song Bao, who was an angel, to salute him. And Song Bao didn't dare to have a little mustard in his heart, in his opinion, Xiao Yu was able to open the middle door to greet him in person, which had already given him a lot of face, if it weren't for him as an angel and representing Emperor Zheng's face, it would be okay to kneel down.

It's just that at this time, Song Baoli is also OK, although he did not kneel, but he also lost the momentum of the angel, if it was a serious decree, it would be nondescript, so Song Bao simply took out the holy decree directly, and read the holy decree in his hand in the "gentle" tone when he recited the chapter for Emperor Zheng on weekdays.

“...... He crowned Xiao Yu as the king of Xiping County, awarded the special Guanglu doctor, added the honor to the Zhuguo, and was awarded the rank of the governor of the first product of the capital, and hung the title of secretary of the military department, and led the military and political affairs of the northwest, and controlled the five northwestern states of Zhongdu, Xihe Prefecture, Shaanzhou, Hanoi Prefecture, and Xiliang Prefecture. Chin this. ”

After reading the holy decree, Song Bao didn't dare to ask Xiao Yu to receive the decree and thank him, so he immediately walked in small steps, bowed his head and took the holy decree in his hand, and handed it to Xiao Yu with both hands.

Xiao Yu took the holy decree and said calmly: "There is a lieutenant of Lao Song." ”

Song Bao hurriedly said: "Your Highness is serious, this is the old slave's internal business." ”

At this moment, Song Bao also lamented in his heart, reading the holy decree to this part, I am afraid that he is also the first one.

Xiao Yu turned his head to Lin Han beside him and said, "Zhongguan Song has come all the way to my northwest, and he will definitely entertain him." ”

Lin Han said solemnly: "No." ”

Xiao Yu took the brocade box in his hand and turned around with Lin Yinping to go home.

In the mansion, Xiao Yu opened his arms, and Lin Yinping took out a python robe from the brocade box and put it on for Xiao Yu in person.

Outside the mansion, someone took off the plaque on the door of the Xiao Mansion.

When the plaque of the Xiping County Palace, which was visible to everyone, was replaced on the middle door of the Xiao Mansion, the whole middle school suddenly became excited.

The generals and officials are all listed outside the middle gate according to their official positions.

Half an hour later, the middle door opened again.

Xiao Yu walked out of the middle door wearing the robes of the county king python and stood on the steps.

Xu Lin, the governor of the central capital, led the generals of the first series of the central capital to stand on Xiao Yu's left hand, and after a moment of silence, Xu Lin knelt down on one knee and said in a deep voice: "The last general, Xu Lin, will see His Royal Highness the King of the County." ”

The sonorous sound was endless, and the long street in front of the palace was all under black pressure and fell to their knees.

"See His Royal Highness!"

"See His Royal Highness!"

One after another, endlessly.

Xiao Yu stood with his hands in his hands, and the seven eastern pearls on the crown shone brightly.
