In the early morning of the third day, the guard of honor of the envoy of the Anxi Festival lined up at the root of the imperial city, and the front of the procession was facing the Jinguangmen Hengjie, orderly and solemnly waiting.

Fumeng Lingcha rode in front of the six rings, and the front door flags were lined up, and before the festival were several horizontal blowing teams, they had already put the bronze trumpets to their mouths, as long as Fumeng Zhongcheng ordered, they would puff up their cheeks and blow the horn and set off.

He frowned tightly, turned his head and asked Li Siye beside him, "Why hasn't there been any movement yet?" Still not coming?"

"Following the Khan's side, the last general has already sent someone to answer it, and it should be there soon. Long Wujun is here, and the last general is not clear. ”

Fumon Lingcha snorted softly in his throat, a situation that he could not control on either side. Ashina Xin is not only the protector of Mengchi, but also the ten surnamed Khan, according to his rank, he has to bow down and salute when he sees the other party. The Long Wu Army is the forbidden army of the saint stationed in the palace city of Beiyagong, so he can't control it.

The sun rose higher and higher, Fu Meng Lingcha's brows became more and more furrowed, Li Siye grabbed the reins of the horse and was just about to urge it, when he suddenly saw a small team turn out of the main street of Anhua Gate, and the Khan Daxu with a white leopard tail appeared in everyone's field of vision.

Fumeng Lingcha exhaled, put his hand on the pergola and looked into the distance, only to see that Shi Xin Khan's team was a little shabby, only a dozen Anxi soldiers carrying the Daxu Gate, a manned ink cart, a cargo ox cart, Shi Xin and Si Lu rode on horses, and the team slowly came to this side.

When the Khan's team came to the guard of honor of the Anxi Festival, Shi Xin was wearing a purple robe with a lack of hips, his face was sad, and he was still wearing his lapel beard suit, looking in high spirits, as if he was full of expectations for this long trip.

There is still to be respect for the superior in public, Gao Xianzhi, Li Siye, and Ma Phosphorus turned over and dismounted, stood aside and saluted with crossed hands, and Fu Meng Lingcha just bowed on the horse and crossed his hands to show respect.

"Fu Meng Zhongcheng, generals, don't be polite. In the future, Shi Xin will still rely on you a lot. ”

This guy spoke modestly, and he couldn't help but have some of the atmosphere of the city.

Li Siye's gaze went over his horse and towards his belongings. There should be a princess of Jiaohe and a personal maid sitting in the ink car, and a few maidservants in the house followed the car on foot, carrying a heavy burden. The old housekeeper drove the ox cart, and the cart was hoarded with wooden boxes, silk cloth, and some copper and iron cans, which jingled non-stop.

When the ink car approached, I saw several chicken coops hanging on the other side of the carriage, and as the vehicle bumped into a certain two chicken coops, the fighting cocks in the cage met the eyes, fluttered their wings and pecked through the cage.

Gao Xianzhi turned his head sideways and whispered to Li Siye: "Ya really brought the cockfight."

Li Siye smiled calmly, people who have not experienced the game will not know the allure of plaything addiction to people.

Princess Jiaohe lifted the curtain of Xuan and shouted to Shi Xin with a dark face: "Take away your dead chickens for me!"

Shi Xin turned around and smiled: "Don't worry, lady, they won't fight if they are hungry for a few meals on the road!"

Fumeng Lingcha couldn't help frowning, and began to doubt the correctness of the saint to crown Shi Xin as the tenth surnamed Khan, this is just a thought, just think about it. The right prime minister Li Linfu is shrewd and calculating, and he has long known Shi Xin's temperament, and the sage is afraid that he doesn't know it, so why should he bother.

The domination of the left and right compartments of the ten Turkic surnames is a problem, and the ten tribes such as the Turkish, the Ratnishi, the Yue, the Qarluq, the Mi, and the Yiwu all have great ambitions, and now the Turkish family is dominant, and no matter which one the ten surnames are handed over, there will be a fight due to dissatisfaction. The only advantage of Feng Shixin is that the surname Ashina still has a certain amount of authority in the grasslands of the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains, although this authority is decreasing year by year, hasn't the imperial court thought of a better way?

If it was the khans of the tribes, Ye Hu knew that the Khan sent by the imperial court was such a thing, and the expressions on their faces would definitely be wonderful, and they might curse the urine of the Tang Dynasty. From ancient times to the present, there has been such an embarrassment in employing people - capable people are too ambitious to use, and people without ambition are often incompetent.

Shi Xin rode on the horse and looked left and right, very concerned about the accompanying guards: "Didn't you say that I have a guard?" Why hasn't it appeared yet?"

No one answered his question.

"What about my guards, I won't go without them!"

Li Siye turned his head and replied to him: "Khan wait a little longer." ”

There was a sound of horses' hooves trampling in the Suzaku Gate of the Imperial City, and the crimson flying Lin flag of the Dragon Martial Army flashed, followed by the samurai who rode out on healthy horses and wore pill helmets and silver scale armor, and lined up around the honor guard of the Anxi Jiedu envoy, lying across the street.

This armed armor is bright, there are ten teams before and after, each team of horses is selected to distinguish the color of the horses, is the favorite of obsessive-compulsive patients, they have a horizontal knife on the waist and hips, the side of the horse hangs rhino skin bow sac, there are all equipped with a lance team, a spear team, a halberd commander also has nearly ten, four brigade commanders, two captains, led by a lieutenant.

The equipment of the Anxi Army is sophisticated enough, but it is dwarfed by the Longwu Army, which is fully equipped and can be called extravagant.

Li Siye stared at them for a long time, the other party's silver scales were really tightly protected, and there were no dead ends at 360 degrees, if an iron mask was buckled on his face, it would be really seamless.

The lieutenant of the dragon warrior army rode on his horse and asked them, "Which one is the Khan of the Past and the Dead?"

"I," Shi Xin rode on the horse and raised his hand, his expression was very surprised, he didn't expect the saint to be so interesting, and he really transferred the most elite Longwu army in the four armies of Gongwei Gongcheng Beiya.

Zhong Hou and several officers behind him turned over and dismounted, and took two steps forward to bow to Shi Xin: "Fan Shao, the middle candidate of the Left Dragon Wu Army, led five hundred horsemen to protect the Khan by His Majesty's order."

Several lieutenants behind him reported their names. Shi Xin rode on the horse and praised him again and again, he was originally worried that he would be in danger in the west and was not willing to take office, but when he saw such a well-armored Longwu army, the worry in his heart was swept away, and he faintly had a sense of heroism, with such a magnificent army escorting, he was not walking sideways to the west of the Broken Leaf River?

Fu Meng Lingcha crossed his hands on his horse: "Khan, it's not too early, we should leave as soon as possible."

Shi Xin turned around and asked with a smile: "Okay, let's go on the road." It's just that who's supposed to be in front and who's in the back?"

Fu Meng smiled faintly: "Since it is the first to move to the west, I will lead the Anxi army guards to open the way for the khan in front, and the Longwu army will escort the khan behind." How is it. ”

"Very good, very good."

The horizontal blowing team in front sounded the horn, dozens of large flags fluttered in the morning breeze, and the clatter of horses' hooves sounded. The people of Chang'an, who passed outside the imperial city, were no strangers to this scene, and today I don't know which Jiedu envoy left Chang'an and returned to the border town. Shi Xin rode on the horse, proudly puffed up his chest and looked down, this feeling was actually quite good. Yesterday he was just a nobleman fighting cocks in the West Market, and now he is a truly powerful khan.

The two armed forces are listed as one, with the door of the Anxi Jiedu envoy and the tooth flag as the forerunner, the mighty along the Jinguangmen Hengjie, through the tall city tower door hole, the Chang'an city tower and thousands of eaves tile ridges gradually receded and disappeared from sight.
