Chapter 113: Goodbye
"Captain Murong, in front of you is Shizi and his party."
The voice of the pro-soldier sounded behind him.
Murong Shen suppressed the surging agitation in his heart, hummed lightly, and rode forward without hurrying.
His gaze naturally skipped over the prince of Beihai, who was as dazzling as a peacock opening the screen, and landed on the luxurious carriage.
Zhao Xiyan, who was thinking about it all night, was in the carriage.
He had expected that as long as Xu Jing was forced into Beijing, Zhao Xiyan would definitely come with him. Now, she came, right within reach of him.
This time, no one could stop him.
Murong Shen didn't get off the horse, so he arched his hand on horseback: "The last general was ordered by the emperor to come here to welcome the prince of Beihai into the palace. ”
Xu Jing snorted coldly in his heart, pulled the corners of his mouth, and responded back with a smile: "Captain Lao Murong came to greet him." However, I always have to send my fiancée to the Zhao Mansion first, and bother Captain Murong to wait. ”
The three words of fiancée pierced Murong Shen's chest like a sharp arrow.
Murong Shen's eyes flashed, and his voice sank: "The emperor has an edict to order the prince to enter the palace immediately to meet him." Does the prince want to resist the decree? ”
Xu Jing's heart was on fire, and he sneered, and he was about to ridicule back.
A familiar gentle voice came from the carriage beside him: "Brother Chunsheng." ”
Xu Jing responded and turned his head to look. I saw Sister Yue'er lift the curtain of the car, and a smile on her lips: "The emperor has an order, you should enter the palace first!" Let the soldiers send me to the Zhao Mansion. When you are settled, come to the Zhao Mansion to see me. ”
was coaxed by Sister Yue'er to laugh like this, Brother Chunsheng's anger suddenly disappeared, and he grinned: "Okay! ”
From Murong Shen's point of view, he couldn't see Zhao Xiyan's face clearly, and could only glimpse Zhao Xiyan's side face slightly, as well as the smile on the corner of his lips.
He subconsciously stepped forward, trying to get closer and see better. Zhao Xiyan had already lowered the curtain.
Murong Shen: "......"
What's even more odious is that Xu Jing also glared at him with an unkind face: "In the carriage is the fiancée of this son." What is the reason for Captain Murong to peep like this? ”
Murong Shen shook the handle of the knife hard and slowly let go: "The last general and Miss Zhao Liu are also old acquaintances, I want to come forward to say hello or two, why should the prince be careless." ”
Xu Jing said loudly: "What is old and not old is in the past. Now, Sister Crescent Moon and Ben Shizi are married, and they will get married next year! This son is very small-minded and doesn't want to see any ill-intentioned man close to his fiancée. Captain Murong is better farther away. ”
There was a chuckle from the carriage.
Obviously, Zhao Xiyan was amused by Xu Jing's words.
Murong Shen's heart was on fire and burning. There was a flash of anger in his eyes.
At this moment, Meng Yushi got out of the carriage and came over.
Meng Yushi actually listened for a moment in the carriage behind, and had already vaguely guessed what was going on. Now he deliberately got off the carriage, and he came to play a round: "It turned out to be Captain Murong." ”
Murong Shen was in a bad mood, and he didn't want to pay attention to Meng Xizhi, who had a bad temper and was destined to be exterminated by the Nine Clans, and said coldly: "Meng Yushi has been working hard all the way, and since he returned to Beijing, he went to the palace to meet the emperor together. ”
Meng Yushi: "......"
The Great Jin Dynasty is noble and martial. In the officialdom, military generals of the same rank have to bow their heads when they see civilian officials. Among the civil officials, the low-ranking imperial historians have always been the most difficult and the least to offend. A high-ranking official like the Liubu Shangshu Shilang will also be courteous to three points when he sees him.
The Murong Shen in front of him is the former captain of the Fifth Rank Imperial Palace, and he has won the trust of the Son of Heaven, so naturally he can't take it lightly. So, he was already very polite.
Unexpectedly, Murong Shen didn't mean to appreciate it at all.
Look at that arrogant face!
Meng Yushi's heart was on fire, and his tone hardened: "This imperial history does have plans to enter the palace to face the saint. Captain Murong is invited to lead the way. ”
Murong Shen: "......"
Murong Shen was really choked up.
However, Meng Yushi's words were not wrong. He was originally sent by the emperor to welcome the prince and his party into the palace. Now, he is not the son of the new dynasty of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, but the former captain of the Yongming Emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty.
The former lieutenant of the Imperial Colonel, it sounds good, but in fact, he is just the Son of Heaven's own soldiers.
Murong Shen swallowed the anger in his heart, turned the horse's head, and "led the way" in front.
Xu Jing suddenly looked at Meng Yushi, and arched his hand at Meng Yushi, grinning.
Meng Yushi remained silent, and returned to the carriage with his head held high.
……
Xu Jing and his entourage, without queuing, followed Murong Shen into the capital from a wide and empty city gate.
The people in line only had envy, and no one dared to be angry and angry.
There are five gates to enter Beijing, and this one is the widest gate in the south, with a total of three gates. The peddlers' pawns walked through the gate on the left and right, and the gate in the middle was reserved for dignitaries and nobles.
Murong Shen was dressed in silver soft armor, and there were dozens of Praetorian Guards behind him. Xu Jing has a handsome face, a noble bearing, and hundreds of soldiers are all strong. Such a group of people know that the origin is extraordinary without asking.
When the city gate official saw Murong Shen, he didn't even ask, so he let the city gate open and let him go. He also came to greet Murong Shen.
The Murong clan is really majestic in the capital!
Xu Jing snorted coldly in his heart.
The city gate official was not blind, he saw Murong Shen, and immediately came to greet the prince of Beihai again.
Xu Jing was too lazy to deal with a city gate official, nodded slightly, and rode forward.
Zhao Xiyan, who was sitting in the carriage, did not lift the curtain and sat upright.
The customs of the Great Jin Dynasty have always been like this, and everyone is not showing up in front of people.
Inside the city gate, a man who looked like a butler was waiting. Seeing the carriage marked by the King of Beihai, the steward's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly greeted him and saluted: "The little one is the steward of the Zhao Mansion, who was guarded here ten days ago by the order of the master. Today is finally the time for the son and the girl. ”
The main reason is that Xu Jing easily exterminated the three bandits on the road and delayed the trip. According to the original foot speed, it should indeed have arrived ten days ago.
Xu Jing was much kinder to the Zhao family's steward, and said with a smile: "I want to enter the palace, and when I have time, I will go to the Zhao family to worship the elders." You came just in time, leading the way in front, and I asked my own soldiers to send my sister to Zhao's mansion. ”
The housekeeper of the Zhao family responded with a smile.
The huge convoy soon split into two columns.
Zhao Xiyan originally only had six carriages, and he bought more than 20 girls along the way, and he had to take them with him. Xu Jing specially instructed to bring the clothes and jewelry he had prepared before, so that there were more than a dozen carriages.
Xu Jing was still not at ease, and muttered non-stop beside Zhao Xiyan's carriage.
Such a mother-in-law and mother-in-law are simply not the work of a husband.
Murong Shen thought disdainfully in his heart. But for some reason, looking at Xu Jing's busy appearance, the sourness in his heart surged up irrepressibly.
