Chapter 724: The Coachman Is Gone?
The subordinates quickly changed their clothes and came out, Lu Baichuan explained to the others, and then took his subordinates to ride to the city gate to wait.
Although it was still early for his daughter-in-law and son to arrive, it did not prevent him from coming over and guarding first.
It was not in vain to come here, and took his subordinates to inspect the city gate, and then everyone knew that He Jiuniang was coming to the national capital, and the general came to pick it up in person, what a big row!
Of course, Lu Baichuan didn't just come to show off his daughter-in-law, but by the way, he also asked about the recent situation, and sure enough, there was a new discovery.
Recently, there have been a lot of suspicious people at the gate of the city, most of them are in a hurry, they don't speak much, and when they open their mouths, they have foreign accents, not from Beiyan.
But the documents they took out could prove that they were from Beiyan, so it was inconvenient for the officers and soldiers guarding the city to strictly investigate.
Once the investigation is strictly carried out, it will cause chaos, affect the normal life of the people, and even startle the snakes.
However, not being able to strictly investigate does not mean that they will be let go, and the general guarding the city said: "The general can rest assured, the lowly officials have been sending people to keep an eye on them, and they have found that they are only operating in the city, and there are no other misdeeds." ”
"If nothing else, it should be all people from the Eastern Court, keep an eye on it, and report any abnormalities."
Lu Baichuan is not directly in charge of Dongting's affairs now, but as the initial contact person in this matter, it is still necessary to care about the follow-up development.
The three princes of the Eastern Court are still locked in Beiyan's cell, although Beiyan sent envoys out, but the Eastern Court still keeps making small moves, so it seems that they want to rob the prison.
In fact, Lu Baichuan can also understand the other party's thoughts, if he waits for Bei Yan's envoys to go over there, the three princes will become hostages, Bei Yan can make requests, and he can completely place some overlord clauses, after all, the lives of the three princes are still quite valuable.
What's more, the dirty things that Dongting did before made the people of Beiyan suffer so much, and if they didn't ask for more, they would seem that Beiyan was weak and incompetent, and they didn't dare to be tough when they were bullied.
"Yes!"
The general immediately stood up straight, responded with confidence, and then explained the matter again in detail, so that Lu Baichuan could understand more clearly.
After listening, Lu Baichuan felt that the people of the Eastern Court might not be able to hold it back, if nothing else, they would do it within a month or two, after all, the envoys sent out were already about to arrive in the Eastern Court.
The next period of time will be spent in a bloody storm, and tomorrow is just the right time to discuss the plan with the prince.
Thinking of this, he said to his subordinates: "I won't be going back to the barracks these days, you can take someone to watch it, don't slack off on training." ”
The eyes of his subordinates changed when they looked at him, and he said shyly: "General, don't you like this, my sister-in-law didn't just come here for a day or two, why are you in a hurry!" ”
"Get out of the way, Lao Tzu is on business!"
Lu Baichuan kicked him with a smile, but he wasn't really angry.
But his subordinates didn't believe it, after all, he told them every day how good his sister-in-law was, how much he liked it, and it was hard to meet, so the dry firewood couldn't be burned for three days and three nights?
So he laughed even more cheaply, patted Lu Baichuan's shoulder boldly, and said, "I understand, I understand!" ”
Lu Baichuan didn't bother to explain to him, glanced at him and didn't speak.
"Hey, here, here, isn't that the carriage?"
In the distance, the sound of horses' hooves could be heard, but because there were no oil lamps on the carriage, I couldn't see it clearly, and I could only barely see a shadow coming quickly by the moonlight.
A few people were standing on the city tower, looking farther, Lu Baichuan took a look, it was indeed his daughter-in-law who was driving the car, turned around and went downstairs to greet him.
The generals and subordinates guarding the city gate also followed, especially the subordinates, and the expectations in their hearts were overflowing.
The carriage was still some distance from the city gate, and after Lu Baichuan went downstairs, he stood at the gate for a while before the carriage came.
Lu Baichuan hurriedly greeted him, shushed for a while, and then took the reins and personally led the horse over.
The subordinates were stunned, their general had such a gentle scene, no, how could the general be so good to the woman who was driving the car, could it be ......
"Wow! Is that Madame? How do you catch a car by yourself? ”
The subordinates were in a hurry instantly, generally speaking, these ladies traveled in several cars before and after, with luggage, and they had to bring people to serve, not to mention the coachman who was in a hurry, why didn't his sister-in-law even bring a subordinate around him, and even drove the car himself?
Could it be that something happened on the road and the driver was gone?
At this moment, he didn't have the heart to gossip, so he hurriedly stepped forward and asked: "Mrs. Sister-in-law came alone, but something happened on the road, and my subordinates will take someone to investigate!" ”
When He Jiuniang heard this, she smiled and said: "It's nothing, I just didn't bring anyone when I went out, thank you for your concern." ”
The subordinates breathed a sigh of relief instantly, and then continued to be surprised how He Jiuniang was so brave, she was a woman with a child for such a long journey, and she came to the capital to find a husband by herself?
Sure enough, it's not unreasonable for the general to praise her, if it is replaced by other women, let alone driving a car, I'm afraid that I can be scared to cry even if I walk at night, right?
However, when I quieted down at this time, I realized that my sister-in-law was really good-looking, obviously she was plain-faced, and her hair was also pulled in a bun at random, fixed with a very ordinary wooden hairpin, but it gave people a feeling of a fairy descending to earth.
The subordinates were directly stunned, no wonder the general praised his sister-in-law's wife, and he never had the intention of going out to be chic, it turned out that his sister-in-law was so good-looking!
Not to mention the deeds of those sisters-in-law and wives told by the general, what a strange woman!
He Jiuniang saw this person looking at herself in a daze, and raised her eyebrows at Lu Baichuan: "Don't you introduce me?" ”
Seeing this, Lu Baichuan slapped the person back to reality, and then said: "Chen Bin, he is my general." ”
It's a small leader, but the position is not very high.
"Hehe, hello sister-in-law! How offended, I hope to forgive me, the main thing is that our general praises the goodness of my sister-in-law in front of us every day, we still don't believe it, but now I see it and feel that our general really didn't deceive people! ”
He Jiuniang glanced at Lu Baichuan meaningfully, and smiled at Chen Bin: "Really? Then if you have a chance, can you tell me how he complimented me? It's late today, so I'll invite you to dinner at home another day and talk slowly! ”
"No problem! We can say whatever Mrs. Sister-in-law wants to hear hahaha! ”
This Chen Bin is also a cheerful character, and he didn't say anything to excuse himself.
"Since you received your sister-in-law, the general and his subordinates will go back first."
It's the middle of the night, and I'll have to get up early tomorrow morning to train.
Lu Baichuan responded, then said a few words to the generals guarding the city, and drove to his mansion in person.
He Jiuniang didn't go in to find her son, she sat outside with Lu Baichuan, holding one of his arms and pillooning his shoulder, unprecedentedly calm.
"Did you miss me?"
"Do you need me to prove it?"
