Chapter 105: Why bother
Zhang Zheng and Li Chengqian, who had drunk enough of the stream, collapsed on the edge of the stream.
Lying upright, he couldn't see the dignity of the prince and the county man at all, like two beggars.
Zhang Zheng tore off the strips of cloth stuck to the sides of his thighs, and the inner thighs had been worn out by the saddle, and at this time, bursts of heart-piercing pain came.
Li Chengqian was the same, seeing Zhang Zheng tearing the strip of cloth stuck to his skin, there was a disgusted look in his eyes.
Zhang Zheng looked at Li Chengqian's disgusted eyes, returned a sneer, and secretly said in his heart that you will know that it is terrible when your wound scabs.
didn't say anything to remind him, just waiting to see Li Chengqian's jokes.
Unexpectedly, the old eunuch often said that it was appropriate to jump out and dismantle the stage.
sat next to Li Chengqian and began to clean the rags on Li Chengqian's inner thighs.
Zhang Zheng turned his face and said, "Why do you think we are here, is it uncomfortable to walk slowly with the large army, why do you want to suffer this crime?" ”
Why did Zhang Zheng turn his face away, it was really a picture of an old eunuch cleaning the wound on the inner thigh of a young man, too spicy eyes.
Zhang Zheng shouted that he didn't dare to look at it, he didn't dare to look at it, it was bad moral, bad morals.
"Hey, this is the first time my father asked me to go out of Beijing to do business, I want to do this beautifully, I don't want to disappoint my father."
Li Chengqian sighed and replied with a wry smile.
"So you're going to pull me to suffer with you?"
"Hehe, Brother Zheng'er, you are the prince's attendant, a close minister of the East Palace, you can't run away from this kind of thing."
"Timid, the prince is still studying, and I went to class for a day in total." Zhang Zheng pouted and said.
The two chatted with each other, enjoying a rare leisure time in the past three days.
Zhang Zheng and Li Chengqian both knew in their hearts that rushing to Pingyao to transfer troops was only the first step.
Next, everyone still needs to continue to run more than 200 miles, and rush to Jinyang to join Wei Zheng and others.
"Alright, let's get some sleep now."
Zhang Zheng didn't want to talk to Li Chengqian anymore, so after saying this, he lay on his side and began to close his eyes and recuperate.
Zhang Zheng didn't want to do this beautifully, this was also the first time Li Shimin sent him out to do something.
It can also be said to be a test for Li Shimin to Zhang Zheng.
It's just that I really didn't expect Li Chengqian to be so crazy before I came.
This is the patrol of the two roads, this is to Hedong drag racing.
The Qincha of other dynasties of the people, wherever they go, is not the local government to serve with good food and drink, lest they be inadequately entertained.
When you meet a low-level official, you can also arrange a few little ladies who warm the bed.
When he arrived at Zhang Zheng, Wen Xiang nephrite did not say anything in his arms, and he had to accompany His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to walk on the horse.
Zhang Zheng himself felt that he might be the worst minister in the history of the entire feudal dynasty.
"I'll sleep for a while, and wake me up in an hour."
Li Chengqian didn't have any interest in talking, he was too tired.
At the command of the common saying, he also closed his eyes.
As the saying goes, he didn't show any tiredness, and he didn't even have a hairstyle.
Perhaps, this is the difference between martial arts masters and ordinary people.
Seeing the two of them falling asleep, the old eunuch showed a rare look of distress on his face.
As the saying goes, as a eunuch, it is definitely impossible to say that it is an heir.
Before entering the palace, all the relatives also died in the war.
In the past month, Zhang Zheng has respected him a lot, and Li Chengqian has not called him as a slave.
Chang Yan felt that the days with Li Chengqian and Zhang Zheng were the easiest period of his life.
The three of them get along day and night, and they are also teachers and friends, which makes Chang Yan feel that his mentality is much younger.
The relationship between the three is no longer a simple master-servant relationship.
On the contrary, the mode of getting along is more and more like that of elders and juniors.
The old eunuch, who had been lonely all his life, looked at the two teenagers, and felt distressed and regretful in his heart.
I thought in my heart that after going back this time, it might be time to say goodbye to His Majesty, and I don't know if Zhang Xiannan is willing to take him in.
In fact, when Li Chengqian's plan was first proposed, he often disagreed.
The reason is the same as Zhang Zheng, it is not worth it.
A thirteen-year-old prince and a fifteen-year-old county man.
They have great years and an infinite future.
They were supposed to live a life of pampering and pampering in Chang'an, with excellent clothes and food, and occasionally breaking into goods.
There is no need to run 800 miles in three days for some people who will die sooner or later.
Looking at the two teenagers who were frowning in their sleep.
Chang Yan paused to kill, and muttered to himself: "A group of clowns who jump off the beam, we want to see what other means you have." ”
……
An hour is an hour, no more, no less.
Chang Yan woke up Zhang Zheng and Li Chengqian who were asleep.
Zhang Zheng buried his head in the stream water again and sobered up.
When he got up and wanted to turn over and get on the horse, he only felt dizzy and couldn't help but stumble under his feet.
The leader of the trusted guards was quick-eyed, grabbed Zhang Zheng's hand and lifted him onto the horse.
Zhang Zheng gave him a grateful smile.
Then he got used to it, and rode his horse behind Li Chengqian.
In fact, in the past three days, the most difficult thing for Zhang Zheng and Li Chengqian is not horseback riding.
It's a mental state of being in a hurry at night and under a high degree of tension.
In order to hide his whereabouts, he took the path.
The path was not easy to walk, and if you didn't pay attention to a pothole, it was easy to break the horse's leg, and then it was trampled to death by the cavalry soldiers who were difficult to slow down behind.
Fortunately, this group of people, including thirteen-year-old Li Chengqian, were very skilled in riding.
Fortunately, the large plains formed by the alluvium of the Fen River are relatively flat.
Therefore, a group of people can see the boundary monument of Pingyao smoothly without danger.
Of course, the Tang Dynasty people are martial arts and are literati, and being skilled in bows and horses is only the foundation.
Therefore, the three-day rapid march can be regarded as a kind of exercise for Zhang Zheng and Li Chengqian.
After entering the territory of Pingyao County, everyone slowed down their horses, although they were still running, they did not care about the horsepower like the previous three days.
In the afternoon, everyone had seen the city wall of Pingyao County from afar.
Pingyao is an ancient city, and Jindi, since ancient times, has been the heart of the Central Plains, and has experienced countless wars.
Therefore, the city wall of Pingyao is also built quite magnificently, and it is full of traces left over from various wars.
Of course, the high-atmosphere style is also relative to other counties, if you compare Chang'an Luoyang, it will definitely not be comparable.
Li Chengqian and Zhang Zheng did not have the idea of entering the city, and the station of Pingyao Zhechong Mansion was in the Pingyao Teaching Field, thirty miles north of Pingyao County.
Theoretically speaking, Zhang Zheng and Li Chengqian came from the south, entering from the south gate of Pingyao County, and exiting from the north gate, which was the closest distance to the Pingyao Teaching Center.
However, Li Chengqian still ordered not to disturb the people and bypass Pingyao County.
