Chapter 419: Sending Off
Coming to the inner courtyard, Li Yong asked with a smile.
"Princess Zhenzhu, what's wrong? I saw me just now, and I was blessed to call Hua Tinghou! ”
Princess Changle, Wu Cao and the others couldn't help but laugh when they heard this, of course they understood why Princess Zhenzhu was so polite when she saw Li Yong, and even called Hua Tinghou when she saw her.
"What are you laughing at? Is there something you're hiding from me? ”
Li Yong asked with some doubts, and Princess Changle hurriedly explained.
"What's there to hide from Lang Jun, it's also today that Zhenzhu came over and said that she wants to go south with you, let me help her beg you!"
"She said that she had always wanted to see the beautiful scenery of Jiangnan, but she didn't dare to go, and now she just followed Lang Jun to see it!"
Princess Changle explained.
"She wants to follow me south? What is she doing in the south? ”
Li Yong was very surprised, could it be that Tubo also wanted to go to sea? The problem is that Tibet is too far from the sea, right?
"She said that she had always wanted to see the beautiful scenery of Jiangnan, but she didn't dare to go, and now she just followed Lang Jun to see it!"
"Want to see the beauty of Gangnam? Just read more poems and texts, just look at calligraphy and paintings, don't you know that it is better to be famous when you meet? I'm on a business trip, not a pleasure trip. ”
Li Yong shook his head again and again. Li Yong was a little unhappy when he heard it, although Princess Zhenzhu was a big beauty, but it was inconvenient after all, and Princess Changle also had a headache.
"Then I'll persuade her tomorrow, see how much she wants to go."
After a few days of preparation, Li Yong was finally about to set off for the south. Li Yong and Li Lizhi walked out of the gate together, and Li Liqian's reluctant appearance made Li Yong feel a little distressed.
"Lang Jun remember to send a letter back!"
Li Lizhi said affectionately, and Li Yong smiled.
"Don't worry! I'll rush back non-stop when I'm done, if I'm bored, go out for a walk, or go to the palace to live for a while, don't think too much about me! ”
"Lang Jun has a good trip, go early and return early!"
Li Li's solemn blessing body, Cuimo and other maids also followed the blessing body.
"I wish Lord Hou a smooth journey!"
"Yes! I'm leaving! ”
Li Yong waved his sleeves, Li Yong got into the carriage, and Li Liqian's gaze seemed to be glued to Li Yong.
Fortunately, there will be post stations and various states and counties to provide grain and grass supplies all the way south, so it is a light car, Cheng Chuliang with three hundred infantry, Liu Renyuan with two hundred fine cavalry has already been waiting in Zhuangkou, three hundred musketeers are followed by more than a dozen carriages, which are some materials, in addition to a few carriages that sit on people, there are six or seven carriages are daily necessities prepared by Princess Changle, which can be described as readily available, Wu Cao went south with Li Yong to take care of Li Yong's daily life, accompanied by a few maids, responsible for pulp washing and other work. Li Yong even had a moment, he really wanted to turn the carriage back, no longer went south, the convoy went all the way to Zhuangzi, he could feel that the gaze stuck to him was full of love and reluctance, although Changle had been talking gently when he left, it seemed very calm, but Li Yong could perceive how heavy the lovesickness was suppressed behind Changle's calmness, and watched Li Yong's figure tightly until it disappeared from sight, she still didn't want to turn around for a long time, she knew that she would miss Li Yong until the moment of separation, She really realized the taste of this bitter lovesickness, Li Li's eyes were tightly glued to Li Yong's body, watching Li Yong gradually move away, her tears finally couldn't be suppressed, fluttered down, and the long convoy walked slowly.
"Presumably you and Princess Changle must be reluctant, so we didn't bother, and waited outside the village!"
Zhang Zhilong explained that although Li Yong had already gone to the prefectures to say goodbye, these guys still came early in the morning, the dawn broke, the sky was bright, and many people gathered outside Zhuangzi, Zhang Zhilong, Li Jingheng, Li Chongyi, Fang Zhizhi and others, although Li Yong asked them to go back, but they still followed with a dead face, all the way to Baqiao.
"Li Yong, give!"
Hearing a click, Li Yong turned his head to look, only to find that Li Jingheng had torn off a wrist-thick willow branch and was walking on his shoulder.
Li Yong's gaze also fell on the bare willow tree next to him, and he couldn't help but sigh.
"Just because of the homophonic word, the willow tree is innocent!"
Zhang Zhilong and others did the same, but they couldn't make a poem by scratching their ears and cheeks, and they wanted to fold the willows only to find that the buds on the willow trees were all gone.
Chang'an customs, if friends go east, they will generally be sent to Baqiao for farewell, folding willows as gifts, at this time Li Jingheng shouted.
"I really want to go south with you! Staying in Chang'an is about to be stuffy! ”
"Yes, yes, we originally wanted to go south with you and help you share the burden, but the old man at home didn't agree, so we didn't say that we went to make trouble for you!"
Yes, they are very envious of Li Yong going south, Li Chongyi, Zhang Zhilong and others nodded again and again, their eyes were full of envy, so they also wanted to follow Li Yong to the south and help Li Yong inspect the Jiangnan girls together, but the old man in the family didn't agree at all, saying that he couldn't follow Li Yong to make trouble, Li Yong's southward journey was too beautiful, especially when they saw the five hundred elite soldiers of the Xishan battalion next to them, they were so envious that they didn't bulge their eyes, they were in power, and they were ordered to go south, what kind of fairy taste was that? Jiangnan is prosperous and picturesque, and the beauties are like clouds, so in their opinion, going south by order is simply going to a comfortable nest, and at this time Li Chongyi's discordant voice sounded.
"Although the women in the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River are as gentle as water, the more gentle and watery the women are, the more they can sell gold and iron, and even the men who beat the iron can't stand it!"
"Brothers go south this time, you must pay attention to your body, brothers have nothing else to grow, I have prepared some ginseng, deer antlers, tiger whips and other great supplements for you."
"Let me tell you, in order to get this tiger whip, we also wasted our boss's energy, this is a rare and precious thing......"
Li Yong's face turned dark when he heard this, what does it mean to pay attention to the body? What does it mean when you prepare ginseng, deer antler velvet, and tiger whip? Li Chongyi smiled, and then a few entourages stepped forward with their burdens, Li Yong was stunned, he thought that Zhang Zhilong was talking and playing! I didn't expect to really prepare deer antlers, tiger whips, ginseng and other big supplements, Zhang Zhilong shouted, anyway, these guys can't spit out ivory, originally these guys came early in the morning, Li Yong felt quite comfortable, but now, Li Yong waved his hand.
"Alright, alright, go back quickly!"
"You haven't taken our gift yet!"
Pick up the fart! The guards next to him are stupid, is this to pick up or not to answer? Li Yong's face is black, in front of so many people, can I swear? Li Yong was speechless for a while, and the guards hurriedly took over the baggage, forget it, take it with you, don't do it in vain, it's all precious things anyway, Li Yong waved his hand.
"Alright, I'm leaving!"
"Brother, when you go to Jiangnan Water Town, don't forget to bring us gifts!"
"Brother, have a good trip, take care of yourself!"
Li Yong waved his hand without looking back.
"Don't worry, I'll bring you some souvenirs!"
Zhang Zhilong and others listened to it and were happy in their hearts, what are the local specialties of Jiangnan? When I think about it, my mouth is going to water.
Li Yong waved his hand and directly urged the horse forward.
Li Yong just wants to get on the road quickly and stay away from these neuropathies now. The convoy slowly came to the Changsheng cement official road, the cement official road is full of traffic, Li Yong's line of people is too long, after a long time has not all walked on the cement official road, because there are many carriages, so the speed is much slower, there are a lot of cars and horses under the huge Changsheng Road archway, they are waiting for people, among them there are three horses like standing out, the team leader looked at the three people and let the team stop, Li Yong saw that the team stopped again, and opened the door to see.
"Princess Zhenzhu, why are you here?"
Li Yong asked suspiciously, could it be that Princess Zhenzhu is here to see her off? But if you see her off, shouldn't Princess Zhenzhu go to Lijiazhuang? How to see off here? Princess Zhenzhu said as a matter of course.
"I'm going south to play!"
Li Yong's gaze swept over her and the two maids, and then looked around again, surprised.
"You brought two maids?"
Princess Zhenzhu nodded.
"What? Can't you? ”
Li Yong said speechlessly.
"That's better than being disliked!"
Princess Zhenzhu snorted, she even held a grudge! Li Yong explained.
"It's not that I dislike you, I have something to do when I go south, and I go to the mountains and rivers as you think, I don't have time to go to the mountains and rivers, if you follow me south, you won't have the opportunity to travel the beautiful rivers and mountains, you are so beautiful, just take two maids to travel around, you are not afraid of being robbed to be the lady of the village?"
"Hmph, you are making this excuse, you don't want to do anything bad behind Changle's back, right?"
Princess Zhenzhu asked with a suspicious expression, and Li Yong couldn't laugh or cry.
"If I want to do any bad things, I don't have to carry Changle on my back! Since you insist on going south, then come with me! We're friends after all, and I can take care of you. ”
He felt that since Princess Zhenzhu was waiting here with her maid, she had clearly made up her mind and followed him with a dead face, what could be the way? I can only bring Princess Zhenzhu, who expected Princess Zhenzhu to straighten her chest and say.
"Who said I was going to follow you? Don't! I'm going south on my own! ”
"It's too dangerous for you to go south by yourself, or you can bring a few more guards!"
Li Yong instructed with concern, and Princess Zhenzhu patted the exquisite waist knife and said heroically.
"Do you think I'm a powerless lady?"
"Yes, yes, you are a heroine in the middle of the women, and you invite the heroes in the middle of the girls to appreciate your face and go south with me, right? There is also a response along the way, how about it? ”
Li Yong knew that she was angry, so he smiled.
"Thank you Hua Tinghou for your kindness, don't bother!"
Princess Zhenzhu shook her head unknowingly.
"Alright then, be careful!"
Li Yong gave her a blank look and then instructed, and then urged the horse forward, the long line rolled forward and walked onto the cement official road of Changsheng Road, looking at Li Yong's back, Princess Zhenzhu was suddenly dumbfounded, do you want to persuade two more words? No, I'll say yes if I persuade me again! But if people don't persuade them, what can I do? Do you want to go home in a gloomy way? But Lu Dongzan had already set off to return to Tibet, and she had packed all her big bags and small bags, how could she go home?
"Princess, what shall we do now?"
The maid asked in a whisper.
"Let's go, keep up!"
Princess Zhenzhu said decisively, Princess Zhenzhu quickly overtook the soldiers, and soon chased behind Li Yong, Li Yong heard the sound of horses' hooves, looked back from the carriage window, his heart was not shocked, there was no look of surprise on his face, he knew that Princess Zhenzhu would follow, seeing Li Yong turning back in the car window, Princess Zhenzhu couldn't help but blush, but she still said strongly.
"Look, this is not your road, I can go if I want!"
All the guards of the calf next to him really want to tell Princess Zhenzhu that this road is really repaired by Huating Hou, and my aunt begs you not to say it again, shame!
"Go to Luoyang first, and then take a boat south from Luoyang."
Li Yong smiled faintly at the Princess Zhenzhu outside, what? Want to take a boat? Who's going to come with you on the boat? Princess Zhenzhu didn't dare to be reckless this time, so she said obediently.
"Oh, I've never been on a boat!"
After obediently agreeing, Princess Zhenzhu suddenly reacted and asked suspiciously.
"Why don't we ride horses? If we take a boat, what about our horses? ”
"The carriage is too slow, the boat is faster, the horses are carried by the cavalry, they don't get on the boat, they will follow along the way!"
At the thought of going south by boat, she was a little excited, because she had never taken a boat before, and sure enough, it was right to follow Li Yong south, and Princess Zhenzhu thought that there were also female dependents accompanying her, and they could not ride horses at all, so they could only sit in the carriage or take a boat, Li Yong explained.
"Don't worry, master, you can't be wrong, this is the most important point, the old slave has reweighted the bounty three times!"
"What the old man wants is alive, a living Li Yong, don't be mistaken about this!"
"If you go back to the master, it will have been spread a long time ago! A reward of 10,000 taels of gold! This is the biggest bounty ever, and the heroes in the green forest are crazy when they hear it! ”
"Has the news of the bounty been spread?"
"Master, Li Yong has already set off for the south."
"Thousands of calculations, I never thought that Li Yong, this kid, would dare to leave Chang'an and go south, in Chang'an City, at the foot of the Son of Heaven, there are countless elite soldiers, no one dares to touch Li Yong, but after leaving Chang'an, hey, isn't this self-defeating?"
"But isn't it, Li Yong doesn't know it, he's just a walking cornucopia, where he goes, he doesn't attract people's attention?"
In a winding garden in Chang'an, the nobles of Longxi, the gate valve of the Central Plains family, the Jiangnan Shi clan, roaring towards the sky, etc., have begun to act, on the bright side, secretly they have begun to test each other, especially Li Yong's intelligence bureau is simply overloaded, because they have to deal with the simultaneous attack of many forces at the same time, Li Yong's safety is particularly important, although Li Yong did not enter Chang'an City on the day he left, but went directly to Luoyang from Lijiazhuang on Yongsheng Road, but it was still rumored in Chang'an City, Li Yong's departure from Chang'an to the south was a big event for the people of Chang'an.
