Chapter 298: The Imperial Capital
The beacon fire lasted for three months, and the family letter was worth 10,000 gold, and even Song Weicheng couldn't put down the letters of his son and daughter-in-law, which was enough to show the general.
"Well, the little couple has made two big deals, and they are expected to come to the town's supply of goods, and they really don't worry about buying and selling, but that Wuhai is a little dishonest, Old Tang, how did you beat it in the first place?"
Song Weicheng couldn't hide the smile on his face, since he returned to the border army, he can be said to be unofficial and light, and his mood has changed greatly, Tang Wenyuan saw that it was not good to eat and not good at sweeping face, and he replied: "The beating must be strong enough, but you also know what kind of character he is, we are far away from the emperor of the mountain, it is better to let Ye Chen take someone to take him to the nest, so as to completely save worry." ”
"Farewell, don't you kill a little demon pig, let's go back, I'll ask Brother Tiger to get more piglets to send to him, and resolve the grievances as soon as possible."
That's the lord of a city, Ye Chen is not stupid to think that he can handle it casually, since the last war has been quiet for a month, even those teams of the Templar Academy have not come forward, and in their spare time, they can only mix in the daily drills to kill time, fortunately, the veterans have a lot of goods hidden in their stomachs, which is really insightful and interesting.
"Can you two be uncles a little righteous, that Wuhai has coveted the Ye family's fiefdom for a long time, and he is bound to go toe-to-toe with his ministers in the future.
It has to be an aunt who knows that she is distressed, Mu Caifeng pointed at Song Weicheng's nose without being polite, Ye Chen laughed when he heard it, but Mu Lao couldn't sit still: "Ahem, or I will let the Xuan Ming Python freeze him for a headless unsolved case, and the old man will come to the top at every turn, are you embarrassed?" ”
"Chen'er, the old man is old, you are not allowed to give him any more wine in the future, remember."
Mu Caifeng came casually without thinking at all.
"Follow my aunt's teachings."
Ye Chen immediately got off the donkey, and Tang and Song hurriedly turned their heads.
"Actually, it's not impossible to let the Xuanming Python go."
Mu Lao spoke in a low voice, revealing helplessness.
"Report, the military department is urgent."
The herald ran into the tent with the iron scroll of the fire paint military seal, everyone immediately stood upright, Mu Caifeng stepped forward to take it, and after confirming that it was correct, he peeled off the fire paint military seal and leaked out the secret lock, and Mu Lao took out the secret key to open it, and waited for the urgent edict to pop up ten lines at a glance.
"The military department ordered me to rush back to the imperial capital as soon as possible, and in the near future, I will accept the special invitation of the Beast Master Guild in public and hire me as an honorary advisor and honorary leader."
"Whew!"
Hearing what Mu Lao said, the three people except Ye Chen breathed a sigh of relief, although no one mentioned it for several days, but the clouds brought by the two guilds really suppressed their hearts, and now they can finally slow down.
"The old man will definitely be pushed to the forefront when he goes, I suggest that Wen Yuan go with him."
Song Weicheng took the lead in proposing, Mu Caifeng nodded and acquiesced, Tang Wenyuan continued: "If this trip goes well, it is estimated that the border pass will be calm for the time being, I think Ye Chen should also go together, just let him hand over the head of Pang Lao Er to the military department, the credit for the last time to the town of Yiyi is all attributed to Qin Wu, and now that his uncle and grandfather are around, he can no longer be cut off, and this credit is very important to his future actions." ”
At the mention of Qin Wu, the eyes of several people converged together, Mu Caifeng frowned impatiently, and snorted coldly: "If the old man meets him, please ask on his behalf, his nephew's credit, he deserves it." ”
After that, Mu Caifeng turned to leave, and it wasn't until the back was far away that Ye Chen showed curiosity: "Aunt Caifeng is very familiar with Qin Wu?" ”
"Qin Wu is the old man's former pro-battalion general, and Caifeng is the guard's personal entourage."
"If it weren't for someone's eagerness, maybe you'd have more than one uncle by now."
Song Weicheng and Tang Wenyuan explained the stakes quite thoroughly, Ye Chen pouted when he heard it, and secretly praised in his heart that there was indeed a husband and wife, Mu Lao saw that it was almost over, so he said with a straight face: "Wenyuan and Ye Chen went to the imperial capital with Ben Shuai to resume their lives, and set off an hour later, during Ben Shuai's departure, the affairs of the Acropolis were managed, and Caifeng assisted in the management, focusing on stepping up the training of the recruits who were replenished in the rear, so go and prepare." ”
The three of them nodded silently and left together, not far from the handsome tent, Tang Wenyuan suddenly spoke: "Ye Chen, going to the imperial capital here is bound to be stormy, multiple helpers have a lot of strength, you must be prepared when you go back." ”
"Well, as for your squadron, you can rest assured, I will help you take care of it, Shen Huaizhong's kid is really good, and if you sharpen it, it is enough to take charge of it alone."
Song Weicheng followed closely behind, and the tacit understanding was not inferior to his own brother at all.
"Didn't you just try to bring Granny Li and Tu Sihai, my nephew understood."
As soon as Ye Chen's voice fell, the two uncles all showed their faces to teach, and when they parted, Tang Wenyuan added: "The Jiang family has been an orthodox Jiangmen family since the Holy Kingdom, and it has been in decline since the beginning of the Holy Kingdom, but his father and grandfather are mediocre in qualifications, and Jiang Lie's performance is quite similar to his grandfather Jiang Laoshuai, who will definitely shine in the future, as well as criminal benefits, the swamp tribe is generally down-to-earth, and it just so happened that both of them had the merit of killing generals in the last war, so you might as well bring them together this time, the door of the military department is really not easy to enter." ”
Seeing the two leave, Ye Chen returned to his big tent in the greeting all the way, Granny Li and Yan Lingfei were on the left, Tu Sihai and Bao'er were on the right, and Shen Huaizhong was greeting Khan on his forehead.
"Ye Chen."
"Eh, wait, I said in advance, Huaizhong, go and call Jiang Lie and Xing Li, this time they also have a share."
As soon as the two girls spoke, Ye Chen hurriedly seized the initiative, waited for his ass to sit firmly and continued: "In less than an hour, I will accompany the old man back to the imperial capital, I will ......." ”
"I'm going too."
"I'll go with you."
didn't wait for the words to finish, the two women rushed to say their words at the same time, this time Tu Sihai would definitely follow, and turned to secretly look at Granny Li, who was sitting firmly drinking tea, but the next moment was broken up: "Don't worry about any ghost ideas, I don't worry about the safety of Ling Fei's girl to others." ”
"What my mother-in-law said is very true, this tea is really good."
It's really embarrassing to go too straight, Ye Chen didn't know what to say, fortunately, just half a cup of tea was eaten, and five people came together, and as soon as he entered the account, Jiang Lie immediately said: "Courtier, if you have something to say, you haven't sweated a little yet, do you want to come along." ”
"Come on, you and Xing Li hurry up to wash and tidy up, wait for me to escort the old man to the imperial capital, and go to the military headquarters to report his military exploits when he returns, it's best to be a little prepared."
Just took the opportunity to express himself, and then took a sip of tea after speaking, Ye Chen was much more comfortable.
"Well, can I not go."
Xing Li suddenly opened his mouth and became the focus, and everyone cast their eyes as if they were looking at monsters, Jiang Lie's eyes lit up when he saw this, and he took the opportunity to slip away: "I said Xiaoli, go back first to receive meritorious service, and then come back to love your children, how can a man start a family if he doesn't start a business." ”
"Yes, I'm really reluctant to bring it with me, that courtier, I just happened to have something to report to the eldest lady, you don't care about bringing one more."
Su Xiu took the stubble just right, and resolved a lot of embarrassment, so that when Pang Aoxue's raised foot should kick to the side, Xing Li couldn't help but tremble, and hurriedly said: "Then I also want Aoxue to go along." ”
"Hey, Lao Li, you started fast enough, this is all Aoxue?"
Ye Chen really didn't notice these details.
"What's that, even the flying snake picking stars has been handed over to others."
Jiang Lie has never been afraid of big things.
"I heard that I carried everyone into the forest on my back."
Su Xiu seemed to have no intention of leaving, and his face was full of apologies.
"Damn, what do you like, I'm convinced."
With a little envy and a little sourness, Ye Chen waved his hand again and again to drive people away, all because of the two piercing gazes and the fact that it was really uncomfortable, but who knew that Granny Li and Tu Sihai also got up and left silently, which directly led to the next time, there was only pure torment left, until the herald came to give the order, and the whole person was numb.
Three days later, as soon as he arrived at the east gate of the imperial capital, Mu Lao immediately announced the temporary dissolution, and left quickly with Tang Wenyuan without waiting for everyone to speak.
"It's the first time I've come to the imperial capital, and it's really magnificent, even the people who watch the gate are wearing second-grade standard armor."
As soon as he said that, Ye Chen immediately received the hostile gaze of the guards, which made Su Xiu shake his head, and secretly brightened the hanging on his waist, Jiang Lie hugged his shoulders and whispered: "Courtier, the imperial capital is deep and the king is more than eight, you can take it easy, don't talk about the side, Han Xinghe is the second smallest in the imperial capital, and there is no water at all, as for me, it's okay to fight, it's not as good as Su Xiu to eat, and he hasn't gone home for a long time, go first, you must go to me if you really have no place to stay, you can invite you to drink flower wine at night, that punishment, My family has fewer people and more houses, so I don't care about food or fruit, can I go or not? ”
"Go, I'll go with Aoxue."
"Let's go, then."
"Okay."
After a few words, Jiang Lie and the three of them went into the city side by side and left, Su Xiu just came back after talking a few words with people, sent an invitation and a waist card with his left hand, and handed over a bunch of keys and notes with his right hand, and waited for Ye Chen to take it before speaking: "The note is written about a secluded courtyard, which has everything except for the next person, and the invitation must be collected, and someone will come to pick you up when the time comes. ”
After that, Su Xiu turned around and got into a simple and solemn carriage, picked up the curtain and waved his hand and quickly went away, Ye Chen looked left and right and raised his hand to lead forward, who knew that the two eldest ladies were also newcomers, just when he was embarrassed, a young man with Wu characters embroidered on his chest happened to come towards him with a portrait, looked up and down a few times and hurriedly asked: "You are Young Master Ye Chen, right?" ”
"Yes, I'm Ye Chen, who are you?"
"Hey, I'm finally waiting for you, the younger one is the young master Xiaotian's scholar, called Xiao Liuzi, and I specially waited for you to act as a guide, all arranged by the two young masters of my family."
"Ah, there is work, there is work, then let's find a place to eat first."
"Okay, I don't know how Ye Shao pays attention to eating."
"I'm going to eat something lighter, not dry food, just roast meat and stew, I'm almost tired of Miss Ben."
"Steamed fish, stir-fried bamboo shoots, stuffed flowers and fruits, I want these three."
Yan Lingfei and Bao'er consciously spoke, Ye Chen Ma threw out ten gold coins, Xiao Liuzi's heart was bright, and he hurriedly stepped forward to lead the way, and under the angry eyes of the guards, the four of them went straight to the Xiangya Pavilion in the west of the city, while appreciating the gorgeous style of the imperial capital, while listening to the authentic explanation, all the way to the good and happy, and took out a lot of envy and jealousy.
