Volume 3: Tempered into Steel Chapter 2: Controversy

After ending this episode, in order to ensure safety, Zhu Qizhen still decided not to camp in the wild.

All the way through Jingshi Baoding Mansion, Zhending Mansion, Shunde Mansion, Henan Zhangde Mansion, Weihui Mansion and finally came to the boundary of Kaifeng Mansion in the middle of the night on the sixth day.

"Why hasn't this arrived at Daliang Station yet?" Zhu Qizhen asked Guo Mao, who was driving, that Fan Zhong was sleeping in the car in shifts at this time.

"It should be soon, Your Majesty, we have been crossing the Yellow River for half a day, and it is indeed time to arrive according to the instructions on the map, or it may be that the Yellow River has been diverted, resulting in inaccurate map labeling! But it should be soon! Guo Mao also said with some confusion.

Zhu Qizhen couldn't help but yawn, the hurried road for several days had already healed his wind and cold, and also made his originally white and tender complexion closer to wheat and more manly.

As you can see along the way, the sorghum in the north has entered the harvest stage, and the area is larger and larger the further south you go, and when you reach the boundary of Kaifeng Prefecture, the heaven and earth are basically half of the grain, and the other half is ploughing the land with ox carts.

It is also strange to say, in the historical records, all kinds of natural disasters occurred frequently in various places during the orthodox years, and almost every year there were several places affected, but since Daizong ascended the throne, the natural disasters have gone, and it was not until the Chenghua period that they began to increase again, and I don't know if it is a whitewashed peace or what.

"Your Majesty, go to the city gate!" Guo Mao's surprised voice came, shocking several people in the car.

Zhu Qizhen hurriedly probed out of the carriage, and even Fan Zhong, who was snoring, was woken up by a word and rushed off the carriage in surprise.

As a few mermaids came out, what caught your eye was the Northern Song Dynasty city wall built 400 years ago, and the mottled wall seemed to be silently telling its own history.

Standing under the city wall, Zhu Qizhen was full of emotion, he couldn't help but think of Song Huizong, and thought of the humiliating experience that he should have experienced.

They had to pass through the North City Gate, which was nine meters high, and the gate had been closed in the huge gateway, and they could only wait to enter the city early tomorrow morning when the curfew was in place.

"Your Majesty, the minister will send a signal to the Jinyi guards in Kaifeng now, let them go out to greet them!" Guo Mao said.

The rest of the people also had hopeful looks on their faces, especially Jin Qi, who was castrated, his health was the worst among all, and he could not bear the hardships of the journey.

But Zhu Qizhen didn't think so, I secretly went out of the palace, how could I appear in Kaifeng in a bright way? I should still be in the palace, closed because of the cold.

"Any news on that?" Yu Qian stared at a pair of panda eyes and asked.

"Back to Yu Shangshu, it was still news a day ago, the emperor has left Weihui Mansion, and he is almost at the boundary of Kaifeng Mansion." Jin Yiwei commanded Tongzhi Bi Wang hesitated and said.

Yu Qian raised his eyebrows: "Want to come?" Should? You are the commander of the Jinyi Guard, responsible for the emperor's safety, do you think these two words should come out of your mouth? ”

That Bi Wang also has anger, he is the deputy of Jinyiwei second only to Guo Mao, and he is usually only dispatched by the emperor and the commander, what right do you have to order me, and let me tell the emperor's whereabouts?

"Lord Yu, please recognize your identity! Although you are a member of the second grade, you have no right to take care of my Jinyiwei's affairs, be careful that I am a saint and sue you for a crime of unauthorized power! ”

"Hmph, when the emperor leaves the palace, if you have this backbone, you will not be leaderless in the country now, if the emperor has a little damage, then you are ready to be punished by the nine clans!" Yu Qian said coldly.

"You!" Bi Wang was speechless for a while.

"Okay, okay, it's all about doing things for the country and sharing worries for the emperor, why did your own people quarrel first? Sit down and talk about it. "Zhu Qiyu, the king of servants, played a round game.

Since Zhu Qizhen left the palace, every time he went to a place, Guo Mao would use Jinyiwei's unique contact information to leave a mark. In order to facilitate the Jinyi guard to grasp the whereabouts and protect the emperor's safety.

But since leaving Henan Weihui Mansion, there has been no news, which cannot but worry several ministers.

Especially Yu Qian, although Zhu Qizhen asked him to act on his behalf for state affairs, Hu Hu and Cao Nai did not approve of it, after all, it was just an edict and had no legal effect. Fortunately, there is Zhu Qiyu, and there is also a precedent of King Yu supervising the country before, and he can still suppress everyone.

"What the hell is going on?" Cao Nai couldn't help but ask.

"Maybe the emperor is in a lot of interest, and maybe it's delayed on the road." Bi Wan said uncertainly.

"I hope it's what you say, or not." Cao Nai didn't say any more, but everyone knew what he meant, and their hearts sank.

Even Hu Hu, who was there with the old god, opened his eyes and asked, "It's already time, right?" It's almost dawn. ”

The misty morning light shone through the window, and the rest of the people were all nervous.

"The Queen Mother doesn't know yet, right? Rajah? Cao Nai asked.

"I didn't dare to let her old man know, after all, the imperial brother only ran away after he came out of the Queen Mother's palace, for fear that the Queen Mother would hurt her body by worrying too much." Zhu Qiyu shook his head.

"Hey! The royal brother is too stubborn and admits death! Isn't it just to give the Sun family a few official positions? Wouldn't it be nice to find a few inconsequential positions to prevaricate? As for ......" Zhu Qiyu said halfway through, and felt that it was inappropriate, so he hurriedly closed his voice.

"Henan Mansion Jinyi Wei urgent! The emperor was stationed outside the city last night, and he should enter the city at dawn! Jinyi Wei Shimen Da hurriedly came and said.

Henan Mansion is Luoyang, which is second only to Kaifeng and is also an important town through which the eight Jingshi Post Roads pass.

"Henan Mansion?" Several people looked at each other a few times, and they all saw surprise in each other's eyes.

"Didn't Commander Guo elaborate on the situation?" Yu Qian asked.

"It should be that the emperor didn't want to alarm the local government, and he didn't get in touch with Jinyiwei outside the city, and it was the news sent back by the brother who was secretly protecting."

Then Menda whispered again: "According to their judgment, the emperor, the emperor, they should be, they are on the wrong path......"

Several people looked wonderful, there were two champions in the line, two generals in the army, and the emperor was also a British lord who had gone out of the field and been on the battlefield, and no one expected to be affected by the direction.

In the silence of the scene, there was suddenly a more joyful atmosphere.

"Ahem." Zhu Qiyu coughed twice with embarrassment, and said: "Since the imperial brother is fine, then send the military reports from Guangzhou and Guizhou as soon as possible!" ”

Several people gathered here to find Zhu Qizhen, also because the thief and Miao had a major situation to report, at this time, King Yu reminded that everyone was originally a little relaxed and their expressions changed at the same time.

"Submit the previous treatment plan as well! can't be delayed any longer, since the emperor gave Yu Shangshu the right to make a decision, then Yu Shangshu should not refuse, make up his mind. Hu Hu said with his eyes half-open.

Zhu Qiyu also looked at him and said, "Yes, since the imperial brother has a life, then you can give an order to Yu Qian!" ”

Cao Nai, who originally wanted to speak, could only hold back the words back into his mouth, he is not a person who does not know the general situation, the military situation is urgent, so naturally he can't delay it any longer.

Yu Qian looked at a few people, his expression slowly became resolute, and he said in a deep voice: "Thank you, Lord Wang!" Thank you! Then implement the plan we have drawn up before and submit it to the emperor! ”

Henan Province, Henan

"Kaifeng? Is this Kaifeng? Zhu Qizhen pointed to the huge Luoyang on the city gate tower and asked.
