Volume 1 The Son-in-law Conquers the World Chapter 40 The Mysterious Eldest Princess
On the next journey, Zhao Xuanyi was very bored, either camping in the wilderness, or resting in an inn in the city, and Li Yukun kept his whereabouts secret, as long as he entered the city, he ordered everyone not to go out of the city, Zhao Xuanyi also guessed that it must be Li Hanyan who secretly went out to play that night and was caught!
After a twenty-three day trip, I finally returned to the capital on this day, and I saw the gate of the capital when I saw it from a distance, hundreds of soldiers lined up on both sides outside, and the merchants and merchants who came and went at the city gate were endless, and the people were countless, and the wide city gate became a congested narrow alley at the moment!
And those who want to enter the city must be inspected by the soldiers at the city gate, and if they carry any contraband, they will be arrested, and they will be questioned, and it can be seen that these soldiers are very serious, and everyone is carefully checked.
Zhao Xuanyi looked at Shen Wei on the side, "Brother Shen, what kind of contraband do these soldiers usually check?" β
"That's a lot, weapons such as knives, guns, swords, halberds, or some royal items, as long as they are not things that ordinary people should get, they are all contraband, and they will be carefully investigated!" Shen Wei is very excited at the moment, he is finally back, I don't know how the master is now? Seeing the second son who has been reborn now, he must be very happy!
Li Yukun looked at Li Hanrui on the side, "Who is on duty today?" β
Li Hanrui looked at it from afar and looked carefully, "Father, it seems to be the cold conscience of the Tiger Hunting Camp!" β
Li Yukun nodded, "In this way, let's go down in batches, don't cause a commotion, and leave twenty people outside the city, ready to stand by at any time!" β
"Yes!" Li Hanrui looked at Liu Bo, "You enter five people every half an hour, you don't need to make trouble innocently, after the capital, you will return directly to the General's Mansion, leaving twenty people outside the city to listen to orders, if anyone dares to pick quarrels and provoke trouble, they will be dealt with directly by military law!" β
"Subordinates obey!" After Liu Bo finished speaking, he began to arrange!
Li Yukun waved his hand, took Li Hanyan and Li Hanrui, the three maids and Shen Wei and Zhao Xuanyi, these people began to walk towards the city gate, Zhao Xuanyi was very curious, is this the capital of the Ming Dynasty? I want to open my eyes this time!
When a few people arrived at the city gate, a soldier stepped forward to stop them, "Guys, what's in your car?" β
Li Hanrui smiled: "The carriage is naturally filled with people!" β
"Let's take a look!" The soldiers defending the city were extremely arrogant, and as they spoke, they came over, intending to check the inside of the carriage.
Zhao Xuanyi didn't care, he was himself inside, he could see it if he wanted to, but at this time, Li Hanyan was unwilling, sat on horseback, raised Fang Tian's halberd, and waved his big hand, and the crescent moon of Fang Tian's halberd was directly lifted on the soldier's neck, "Bold!" Blind your eyes and don't see whose carriage this is? β
When the soldiers defending the city saw that this woman was carrying such a big weapon, their faces changed with fright, and they hurriedly shouted, "Big brother, there is someone making trouble here!" β
At this moment, Han Tianliang, who was sitting in the city gate cave drinking tea, heard that someone was making trouble, and quickly ran over with more than a dozen soldiers. Kneeling on the ground, "General? The guards guarding the city, Han Tianliang, greet the general! β
All the soldiers were frightened by one sentence, and they knelt down one after another, not daring to speak again! When the people looked at it, they didn't know what was going on, after all, there were not many people who knew Li Yukun, and they were all here to watch the excitement.
Li Hanyan looked at the famous soldiers beside her, her eyes widened, "Do you still want to check?" β
"No, no, no...... Small wrong! The soldiers defending the city hurriedly knelt down and apologized to Li Hanyan!
After Li Yukun saw it, he smiled slightly, "Why bother?" How long has it been since Han Yan and left Beijing? I forgot the rules, I won't punish you when I go home, Han Tianliang, I haven't seen you for a long time! β
Han Tianliang smiled, but didn't dare to get up, "Yes, General, you haven't been back for five years!" You miss you so much, brothers! β
Li Yukun pointed to the carriage, "No matter what, the rules can't be broken, hurry up and check the carriage, I'll go home!" β
"No, no, no, how can the general's carriage be inspected and let it go directly!" Han Tianliang said with a smile.
"How's that going to work? If this reaches the emperor's ears, am I not asking for trouble? Don't waste my time, hurry up! Li Yukun said very kindly, and didn't seem to be angry because of the soldiers' obstruction!
Han Tianliang's face was full of confusion, and finally looked at the soldiers beside him, "Check it quickly, and then let it go!" β
"Yes!" The soldier got up, came to the carriage, and looked at Li Hanyan, who was holding Fang Tian's halberd. hugged his fist, "Third Miss, offended!" When he lifted the curtain of the carriage and took a closer look, he saw a man sitting inside, who looked a little familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was for a while!
"Check that it is correct, and let go!" The soldier shouted.
Han Tianliang hurriedly stood up and got out of the way, Li Yukun led everyone into the interior of the capital, and the people around him also dispersed!
When Zhao Xuanyi saw this scene, he couldn't help muttering in his heart, this Li Hanyan came here today, not to protect herself, but to deliberately give the soldiers guarding the city a dismount, but didn't Li Yukun secretly enter Beijing? Isn't this completely exposed? Li Yukun: What is this doing?
Li Yukun looked at Li Hanrui, "Hanrui, you guys go home first, I haven't been back for a long time, and I don't know if the teahouse in Lixia Lane is still there, I'll go drink a cup of fragrant tea, and I'll go back later, tell your mother, don't worry!" β
"Yes!" Li Hanrui didn't say much, as if he knew something, flicked the reins, and left with the others!
And Li Yukun walked in the other direction alone, watching the surroundings as he walked, and whether anyone was following! He didn't wear an armored uniform, he wasn't very conspicuous, and he quickly blended into the crowd and disappeared!
Zhao Xuanyi looked at the street outside, took a closer look, and was really surprised, only to see that the ground in the capital is not ordinary, the stone paving, the clear water sweeps the street, the ground is very clean, and the street is full of traffic, and the people are boiling, as far as this number of people can be said to be congested.
And not only the people of the Ming Dynasty, but also some foreigners can occasionally be seen, although they can't tell that they are from that country, but this bearded face and horizontal flesh don't look like Central Plains people!
Shen Wei looked at Li Hanrui who came to Li Hanrui on a horse, "Second son, since I have arrived in the capital, I will take the young master home, please report to the general, and I will definitely let the master come to the door in a few days to thank you!" β
Li Hanrui didn't stop him, and nodded lightly, "Okay, then let's go back, this is a year smaller, presumably Mrs. Zhao is also worried about Xuanyi!" β
"Thank you!" Shen Wei looked at the man who was driving the car, "Please follow me!" After speaking, he flicked the reins and led the way in front, and the carriage was also separated from Li Hanrui and the others, Zhao Xuanyi's eyes swept over Li Hanyan, and Li Hanyan shook his chin indifferently and did not look at Zhao Xuanyi.
Zhao Xuanyi was not angry, looked at the purple kite on the side, and tapped his lips with his finger, the purple kite seemed to remember something, and gave Zhao Xuanyi a beautiful smile, Zhao Xuanyi also smiled, and then put down the curtain of the carriage, sighed lightly, and sixty-two smiles!
Lychee looked at Purple Kite curiously, "Sister Purple Kite, what are you laughing at?" β
"Huh? Oh, it's been a long time since I've been back to the capital, and I'm so happy! Purple Kite said casually.
Li Hongtian looked at Li Hanyan, "Go home first, wait for your father to come back, if there is nothing else, you are coming out to play!" β
Li Hanyan pouted, "Do you think my father will let me go out to play casually?" Must tell me that the eldest girl should not go out of the door, and her husband and children at home are annoying! Shall I go play now? I'll go back when my father comes back? β
"Nonsense? If Father had known, he would not have broken your legs? Could it be that you don't want to be a mother? Li Hanrui asked.
One sentence made Li Hanyan dare not have the slightest sense of playfulness, flicked the reins, and ran towards his home, Li Hanrui smiled, and slowly walked towards the general's mansion with the other three maids, after all, you can't ride a horse quickly when you enter the city, there are too many people on the street, and if you hurt someone, you will have to eat a lawsuit!
And Li Yukun appeared outside a secret teahouse at this moment, and handed the horse to Xiao Er, "Xiao Er, do you have any good tea recently?" β
Xiao Er smiled, "Guest officer, we have new famous teas from all over the world here every day, I don't know what kind of tea you like?" β
"Naturally, it is the smoke and rain of Jiangnan green willow tea!" Li Yukun said.
When Xiao Er heard this, his eyes became very serious, he looked left and right, and no one seemed to be following, so he hurriedly smiled, "Yes, I just arrived this morning, you come with me!" β
Xiao Er said and led Li Yukun into the teahouse, in the hall on the first floor, there were more than a dozen people drinking tea, they were dressed very ordinary, they looked like a group of ordinary people, but their eyes were sharp, they didn't talk, they sat quietly on the stool and drank tea, it looked very weird!
Li Yukun was taken to the second floor, Xiao Er hurriedly retreated, Li Yukun saw that there was only one table on the second floor, a woman wearing a veil and a white dress was sitting there drinking tea, and there were four beautiful women standing beside her, two in red and two in green!
Li Yukun came to the outside of several women, picked up his clothes and knelt down, "Minister Li Yukun meets the eldest princess!" β
And the one Li Yukun met was the eldest princess of the dynasty, and the sister of a mother of the emperor, ranked seventh, Princess Yuechen, Zhu Yuejun!
When Zhu Yuejun saw Li Yukun, he didn't move, but raised his jade hand, "General Li, please hurry up, you have guarded the border for me for so many years, and you have worked hard and made great achievements, you don't need to be polite, come and give you a seat!" β
"Yes!" A woman in a red dress stepped aside and took a wooden stool and placed it beside Li Yukun.
"Princess Xie!" Li Yukun stood up and sat lightly on the stool, "Eldest princess, after receiving the secret decree of the saint, I began to rush to the capital, I don't know what the saint means?" β
Zhu Yuejun turned his head to look out the window, as if he was thinking about something, and only spoke after a long time, "How is the matter that I ordered you to investigate?" β
"Yes, the minister is incompetent, and I haven't found too much, but according to what I have checked, it is said that the Tatar chief received a letter from the city, and then suddenly withdrew his troops, what exactly is said on it, who wrote it, I don't know, the letter has been burned!" Li Yukun said with a regretful face.
"How was the injury of our Ming soldiers this time?" Zhu Yuejun asked softly.
"No bones and muscles were injured, only fur was broken, and the total loss of soldiers was less than 6,000, but more than 10,000 were wounded by the enemy!" Li Yukun said.
"Not bad!" Zhu Yuejun smiled and said, "I heard that you also picked up a piece of treasure this time?" β
When Li Yukun heard this, a happy smile appeared on his face, "It's my third daughter's fiancΓ©, Zhao Mingqing's second son!" β
"Hmm!" Zhu Yuejun nodded lightly, "I've heard of it, leading eighty people to fight against a thousand people, in the case of an urgent shortage of weapons, he can still kill more than half of the enemy, and the loss is very small, the third prince of the fire and live birds of Tatar, Latu, this kid is really surprising!" β
Li Yukun's heart sank, and he saw sweat on his forehead, and said in his heart, how could this eldest princess know in such detail? What do she know? This is to establish yourself in authority! Li Yukun still smiled on the surface: "Yes! I heard that this person's reputation was not good before, but this time it is enough to prove that the rumors are not credible! β
