Chapter 529 Departure for Beijing
On the third day of the ninth month, Shen Hongjun set off from the state city with a large army and marched all the way to the capital. That Master Hu did not set off with the army, but just sent someone to say that he would follow. Shen Hongjun didn't pay attention to it, and set off directly with the soldiers and horses. The 60,000-strong army was walking on the road, which was a very spectacular sight, and along the way, people from all over the country came out to watch it curiously.
Officials from various prefectures, prefectures and counties along the way also received orders from the imperial court to assist the army in solving problems such as food and housing. However, Shen Hongjun did not disturb the people along the way. He repeatedly stressed that the army should not harass the people along the route, and that if anyone violates the military order, he will not be pardoned and will never be spared. With such constraints, there really wasn't anything wrong on the road.
Because there were infantry, the road was not fast, Yun Xue and the others sometimes sat in the car, and sometimes they came out to ride horses and walked for a while, which also saved them from being too stuffy in the car.
Rushing is undoubtedly a very boring thing, Yunxia felt quite strange at first, and kept looking out. Later, I felt bored, pouting and unhappy. It was Tianfu, and he couldn't bear to look at Yunxia like this, so he hugged her and rode together.
The little girl was so happy now, riding on the horse, she clapped her hands happily. "Oh, it's so fun, Brother Tianfu, you're so good."
Tianfu hugged Yunxia tightly and said with a smile, "Be careful, this horse is very tall, if you fall, your life will be gone." "This little girl, the older she gets, the harder it is to serve. When I went to Anton to welcome my relatives last year, the road time was not short, and I heard that the road was quite honest. Not this year, it's only been two days, and I can't sit still in the carriage.
"Tianfu, you can get used to her, she has now become the overlord of our family." Yunxue rode a horse and said beside Tianfu. "With this temper, when you grow up, you are not delicate and willful, and you are unreasonable? Hmph, I think what if you are old in the future and can't get married? Even if you get married, can your in-laws still tolerate such lawlessness as you? ”
Yun Zhen smiled over there, "Eldest sister, Yunxia is only five years old, you just tell her about getting married, how can she understand?" ”
Yunxia was hugged by Tianfu, but she was very unconvinced, "Who said I didn't understand?" Isn't marrying someone like a second sister-in-law marrying a second brother, and cousin Yushu marrying Shen Zhong's brother? So what's the big deal? I don't want to marry someone else, I just need to marry Brother Tianfu. The little girl had big black eyes shining with an innocent light, but the words she said made the big guy laugh.
"Hahaha, Tianfu, let you get used to her again, okay this time? She's got on you. Yun Zhen pointed at Tianfu and laughed.
Yun Xue listened, but her heart chuckled. Yunxia has been close to Tianfu since she was very young, and when she is older, she has to say that she wants to marry Tianfu when she grows up. Yun Xue didn't know how strong the little girl's attachment would be, but according to her own personality, this matter might be really troublesome.
The girls of the Han family are actually very stubborn, and they admit death. If Yunxia really recognized Tianfu, what should she do? Tianfu is indeed a good child, if Yunxia is older now, Yunxue is also happy to see them succeed. But the difference between these two is eight years old, and the gap is a little bigger.
By the time Yunxia is fifteen years old, it can be said that when it is a family affair, Tianfu will be twenty-three. Can you really let Tianfu wait for Yunxia all the time? The Song family is such a lone seedling, they can't let Tianfu not marry a daughter-in-law, wait for Yunxia for five or six years, right?
Tianfu is now performing well in the army, and the last time he caught a spy, it was Tianfu's credit, and it is said that when he pacified Dongyi, this kid also made a lot of contributions. Shen Hongjun also said that this time when he entered Beijing, Tianfu's credit could at least get a six-grade captain.
Thirteen-year-old Tianfu, the future is still very long, and the future is limitless. Such a talent, others will not let it go easily, wait for another three or five years, I am afraid that I will be able to break through the threshold if I say that I am close. At that time, how old was Yunxia? It's impossible to think about this.
Yun Xue also understands that as long as she proposes it herself, let Tianfu wait, Tianfu will definitely wait. Because Yun Xue took in Tianfu, saved Tianfu from his ruthless relatives, and raised him for all these years. But Yunxue didn't want to use kindness as a pretense to let Tianfu sacrifice her happiness to fulfill Yunxia's ridiculous dream of a little girl.
Looking at the happy appearance of Tianfu and Yunxia around her, Yun Xue really didn't know what it was like in her heart. If Yunxia was born a few years earlier, no matter what, she would have helped Yunxia to fight for heavenly blessings. But that's the case, Yun Xue can't help it.
Yun Xue shook her head, I hope the little girl won't be really so persistent, maybe when she grows up in a few years, she will put Tianfu down. However, if she has the opportunity in the future, she will really have to separate the two. Children are greedy for freshness, and after being separated for a long time, Yunxia will no longer think about Tianfu.
On the afternoon of the sixth day of the ninth lunar month, the army came to the outside of Shenzhou. Among the 60,000 troops, 10,000 were transferred from Shenzhou at the beginning, and this time they happened to come back with Shen Hongjun and them.
Shenzhou is the largest city in the northeast, but it is not comparable to the capital city in other places, the city wall alone is much higher than other places, and it is much stronger. The prefect took officials to greet Shen Hongjun and his party outside the city and invited Shen Hongjun to enter the city, but they were refused.
"There are many people in the army, and it is inconvenient to enter the city, so it is better to be stationed outside the city. Thank you for your kindness, if it is convenient for you, you can provide us with some vegetables and other things. Shen Hongjun said with a smile.
"It's easy to say, the lower officials have already learned the news of the generalissimo's return to Beijing, and a lot of various items have been prepared, just to reward the soldiers." In fact, the prefect didn't want the army to enter the city, so many people entered the city, in case something happened, it would not be good.
So, the army was stationed outside the city, and the reinforcements originally borrowed from Shenzhou were 10,000, and then they entered the city and returned to the barracks. Outside the city, there were also 50,000 troops left, all of whom were going to follow Shen Hongjun into Beijing.
The soldiers set up camp very quickly, and within half an hour, all the tents had been set up, and the firehead army had set up pots and stoves and began to cook. It just so happened that the prefect sent someone to send a lot of meat and vegetables from the city, and the soldiers were able to eat some good food.
Yun Xue and his entourage have always been with the army, and many people also know that this is Shen Hongjun's family and entered Beijing together. Therefore, those soldiers have great respect for Yun Xue and others. Shen Zhong and the others helped set up the camp tents, and then the cooks and others in the courtyard began to cook.
Fortunately, when they passed through Shenxiang County, they bought a lot of food products, and they still had a lot to eat at this time. The skills of the cooks in the courtyard are very good, even if the ingredients are very simple and the conditions in the field are so simple, but the food made is still very fragrant.
The big guys were hungry, so they didn't care about them and hurried to eat.
"Girl, I'll take someone to the city to buy some more meat later. Along the way, you can't pass by the city every day. If we go to the wilderness, we are afraid that there will be nothing to eat. Fu Bo came to Yun Xue and said.
Yun Xue nodded, "Okay, Fu Bo will bring a few more boys and go into the city to buy more things." It is best to use dried meat, dried vegetables and the like, which are not easy to spoil and save too much money. "In a hurry, where is there such a convenient thing, it is better to be at ease with the encounter.
After a few days of travel, everyone was a little tired, so the army rested here today and set off tomorrow. After eating, Shen Hongjun came to find Yunxue and asked her if she wanted to go into the city for a walk. "Shenzhou is the largest city in the Northeast, the city is very prosperous and lively, if you want, let's go in and have a look."
Yun Xue thought about it and thought it was better to forget it. It was almost dark, and seeing that the gates were about to close, they went into the city, and it was just to make trouble for this side. Besides, they are going to the capital, is it possible that the prosperity here is comparable to the capital?
"When we get to the capital, you can take us for a good walk. In the past few days, I feel that I am not feeling good all over, so I should take a good rest. Yun Xue shook her head.
Shen Hongjun originally made such a proposal, but seeing that Yun Xue was not interested, he naturally forgot it. "Look at you, I didn't say I was tired and panicked when I worked on weekdays, why did I feel tired when I sat in the car?" Shen Hongjun said as he helped Yun Xue rub his shoulders.
"You don't know, it's so uncomfortable to sit in the car all day. I can't stand the back pain. If I hadn't been able to go out and ride for a while, I'd have gone crazy. Yun Xue wanted to wail when she thought that there were still more than ten days to go.
It's not like I haven't been in a hurry before, but I walked relatively fast, and I arrived in a few days. But this time, it will take them about ten days, and Yun Xue has a headache when she thinks about it. "I really don't know how Master survived when he entered Beijing. And Yunni, she is a girl, riding a horse for many days, and when she arrives in the capital, she can't walk tired? ”
When it came to Yun Ni and Dong Lao, Yun Xue was very distressed. This time, Qin sent a message, and several of the entourage were sent by the queen, and they specially sent a letter to Yun Xue, saying that Yun Lin was already well. After receiving this news, Yun Xue's heart that had always been hanging was a lot more stable. For Dong Lao and Yun Ni's ability, Yun Xue also sincerely admires it.
"Yes, it's incredible that Yunni was able to run to the capital in only seven days. That's really risking his life to hurry, Yunni arrived in the capital, but I was afraid that he would be tired and lie down. Shen Hongjun couldn't help but sigh, that time he learned that Yun Xue was seriously ill and came from the capital, but several horses died on the way.
"The girls of your Han family are all stubborn. Even if Yunni is as weak, it is powerful enough to initiate ruthlessness. Shen Hongjun said with admiration.
