The sky was gradually dawning, and the pale blue sky was inlaid with a few remnant stars, and the earth was hazy, like a light veil shrouded in silver-gray.

A cold wind swept across the earth, blowing a little cold. Xiu'er, who has been scared for a long time, spent the most stable night last night for most of the year.

Although she experienced the great change of her father's early death yesterday, she is still lucky compared to many people, at least she still has food and a place to sleep peacefully. As the mischievous cold wind blew into the humble marching tent, Xiu'er pulled the sheepskin coat covering her upper body, hoping to be warmer.

Xiu'er, who was tired from sleep, slept for a long time, and didn't wake up until she heard a rustling sound. Xiu'er, who was slowly waking up, rubbed her hazy eyes, and suddenly her mind was shocked, so she remembered her current identity, hurriedly got up and left the warm bed, dressed neatly and ran out of the tent.

Xiu'er was stunned when she came out of the tent, the lodging place that was still surrounded by yesterday was now empty, and in addition to more than a dozen bonfires with sparks, there were only two war horses eating hay and a knight waiting for them.

Xiu'er was dumbfounded in the face of the empty Sudi, and couldn't help pinching her face when she saw this, to confirm whether she was dreaming or not.

Facing the cold wind and feeling the pain of her skin, Xiu'er knelt on the ground weakly, she collapsed at the moment when she had found support yesterday, thinking of the tall and handsome Jiang Qi in her mind, and tears couldn't stop sliding down her face.

In this way, Xiu'er knelt on the cold ground and cried softly, and now it seems that this is the only way to express the pain in her heart, and she is so sad that she doesn't even notice that someone has walked to her side.

"Miss Xiu'er, are you alright??"

Hearing the inquiry, Xiu'er jumped up as if she had grabbed the last straw, looked at the guards in armor, and in her excitement, Xiu'er grabbed his arm and hurriedly asked, "Childe, my son-in-law !! ”

In the face of Xiu'er's actions, this young Qilin Wei, who was not more than a weak crown, couldn't help but blush, and said: "My father-in-law has returned to Beijing, and the main bus will let the villain escort the girl back to her hometown after she wakes up." If the girl is unwilling, she can also choose a place to settle down for the girl, and the lord left a sum of money for the girl, and asked the villain to tell the girl that she must live well. ”

"Childe doesn't want me anymore, Childe doesn't want me anymore??" Hearing the guard's words, Xiu'er looked into the distance stupidly and muttered.

Looking at the somewhat crazy beauty, the young Qilinwei didn't know how to persuade him, so he had to say: "Don't be like this, girl, in fact, my father-in-law doesn't dislike girls, my father-in-law wants the girl to live a normal life, not to be his slave." ”

However, in the face of persuasion, Xiu'er can still listen to it, and at the moment her heart is full of Jiang Qi, and she can listen to other things.

After sobering up, Xiu'er couldn't help but look in the direction of Luoyang and swore an oath: "Childe, Xiu'er said that she would serve you for the rest of your life, even if you are kind enough to let Xiu'er live a good life, Xiu'er will still return to your side." ”

、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、

After five days of continuous travel, Jiang Qi finally set foot in Luoyang, which had been parting for almost a month, and the cold wind that was blowing desperately was also slightly smaller when Jiang Qi arrived in Luoyang.

Perhaps it will indicate that the earth will begin to recover slowly in the new year, or it may also indicate that Jiang Qi will usher in a new self.

After these days of conditioning, Jiang Qi has completely returned to his former high-spirited appearance, and now there is only the bamboo flute around his waist that does not leave his body for a moment, which shows that he is not so strong on the surface.

Yan Ming stepped forward and reported back to Jiang Qi, who was looking from afar: "My lord, there is a convoy in front of the Malay report, three carriages, and nearly 100 horses. ”

Jiang Qi looked back at Yan Ming, who had a haggard face, and bowed his head slightly to show that he understood that he was still very satisfied with this conscientious guard commander.

A day ago, after leading the last Qilin guard to arrive non-stop, as the commander of the guard, Yan Ming guarded him all the time, and this loyalty was not in vain Jiang Qi's promotion of him.

Jiang Qi retracted his gaze from afar, waved his hand and said, "Order all the horses to pack up and prepare to return to the city." ”

In order to reduce trouble, Jiang Qi traveled quickly and simply, but now he was about to return to Luoyang, but he suddenly became high-profile, not only informed the military camp when he would arrive, but also specially asked people to drive him as a special carriage for the liehous.

At this moment, Jiang Qi seemed to be trying to explain to the world that he Jiang Boxiao was back, and he was coming back brightly.

Jiang Qi had already learned about the impeachment of hundreds of officials a few days ago through the letters sent by Xun You, and he had nothing to say about Cai Yong's impeachment of Jiang Qi. As for the others, he wouldn't have been so guilty of a trumped-up crime.

The reason why he came back with such a high profile today was that Jiang Qi wanted to let those Xiaoxiao jump out again, and then he would make an example of the monkeys.

Jiang Qi knew that although he couldn't shake Zhang Rang's big eunuchs now, as a horseman, he didn't have to worry about killing a few chickens.

Of course, Jiang Qi is not untargeted, for several big eunuchs in the DPRK and China, the reason why they can win in repeated struggles is not that they have a large number of troops in their hands, as for being so arrogant, it is completely because they have a trump card in their hands 'Liu Hong'.

With the support of the Son of Heaven, whether it is the former general Dou Wu or Taifu Chen Fan, even if it is the current He Jin, who is not in power, but can pick up the ability to influence the government, who is better than a few big eunuchs in the upper court, who is not male or female, against Dou Wu, Chen Fan and even died at the hands of these eunuchs.

The so-called monarch and ministers have to die, and now a few great eunuchs who can almost influence the thoughts of the Son of Heaven have basically mastered the imperial court, for those scholars and doctors who have long integrated the idea of loyalty to the monarch, etiquette, religion and benevolence into their minds, even if they clearly know that the decision of the Son of Heaven is intervened by their powerful eunuchs, but they will faithfully implement it, even if they let them die.

In their words, it is to exchange their lives for the awakening of the emperor. But that's just a good wish.

However, today, Jiang Qi will use a puppet to tell these eunuchs who have been powerful for many years that they are not afraid of them, and if necessary, he will even let these people see the tiger power of his Qilin general. At that time, Dou Wu couldn't complete the military advice, and Jiang Qi didn't mind completing it for him.

"Is the young master going to change his armor or official clothes?" Seeing Jiang Qi's somewhat uncertain face, Uncle Jiang Ren stepped forward with two guards holding trays and asked carefully.

Jiang Qi looked at the cowhide armor on the tray and said, "Wear armor, those bloated official uniforms are not very used to wearing them." ”

"No" Uncle Jiang Ren agreed, and hurriedly put on the armor for Jiang Qi in person.

Looking at Uncle Jiang Ren's slightly clumsy movements, Jiang Qi couldn't help but think of Xiu'er he met in Anyi, and sighed in his memory, thinking about it, he didn't know if she had settled down. If it weren't for the instability of the world now, he was afraid that he would be obsessed with beauty, maybe he would not refuse Xiu'er, a beautiful and well-behaved girl.

Thinking about the girl I met a few days ago, when Jiang Qi reacted, she was already dressed in light armor.

casually straightened out the purple armor spike on his chest, which was a little messy and represented his official position, and everything was quickly ready. At the end, he patted the finely made and luxuriously decorated armor, and he seemed to be a little unaccustomed to his current status.

Jiang Qi is now wearing this kind of leather armor, although it looks very good-looking and lightweight, but it is not practical at all, except for the heart armor with two thick points on his chest, the rest of the resistance is not strong at all, and it can be easily shot through with crossbow arrows within twenty steps.

Not only him, but also the thirty honor guards and cavalry guarding on the side are also average, the armor is very beautiful on the surface but not practical at all, and it is not as strong as the two-gear armor on the battlefield.

However, although these armors are useless in battle, it is more than enough to scare people, and when Jiang Qi, a murderous cavalryman wearing forbidden army armor and unable to even see his face, walked onto the official road, passers-by and pedestrians couldn't help but speed up their pace to avoid them.

Although this is the capital, there are countless dignitaries, but such a swaggering horse team is not often seen. Seeing this, people speculated that it was the official who traveled again.

Of course, the people living in Luoyang are very knowledgeable, after all, at the feet of the Son of Heaven.

When they saw the unicorn banner erected high in the team, as well as the handsome and mighty young man with different armor and a handsome face, people naturally knew which official had traveled.

It's just a little confusing, don't everyone say that this Qilin general was 'martyred' for Miss Cai's family? Why did he appear here with a swagger, and he was so flamboyant.

But despite this, the news of the return of General Qilin Jiang Qi to Luoyang spread all over the streets and alleys of Luoyang with this speculation.

When Jiang Qi and his entourage had just crossed the mountain, they saw the chariot and horse team that came to greet them from a distance.

It's just that the first one to come out to greet Jiang Qi was not his beloved sister, nor was it Zhang Fei, who was arguing all the way to speed up his pace, but a snow-white war horse, this war horse was no one else's, it was the mount that followed Jiang Qi all the way to the Quartet - Treading Snow.

Perhaps smelling the smell of its owner, before the people who came to greet him could react, Tayuki immediately broke free from the reins of the guard's hand, hissed and ran out of the hooves.

After nearly a month of recuperation, the snow treading can be described as fat and healthy, and the coat color is bright, and it can be said that the state of treading snow at this moment even exceeds the past.

If you look at it from the side at this time, the snow white body and the four hooves are pale yellow, just like stepping on a faint cloud in the air, and the four hooves seem to have no contact with the ground.

The speeding snow slowed down when he ran more than ten steps away from the flag, and suddenly became very docile.

What's even incredible is that Treading Xue, who is half a head taller than ordinary war horses, actually lowered his arrogant head after approaching Jiang Qi, and was rubbing his long horse face towards Jiang Qi's arms like a coquette. Maybe it's a good horse psychic.

"Okay, okay, isn't it a grievance that Qi didn't take you out with him、、、、、", Jiang Qi held the horse's head that kept rubbing into his arms, slowly and gently stroked, and then lowered his head as if he was intimate with someone, and slowly talked to his special brother, and after speaking, he also took the fried beans handed over by the soldiers and fed some food.

After chewing the food in Jiang Qi's hand, the psychic tread snow couldn't wait to hit Jiang Qi's foot with his head, as if he hoped to carry his master to run wildly.

Of course, after Treading Snow appeared, the mount under him was not very obedient, and in the face of the power of Treading Snow, he even retreated a little, accompanied by an uneasy low roar.

Slightly calmed down the mount, and then Jiang Qi used a force on his waist to complete the transfer directly on the horse's back, perhaps because of excitement, when he sat firmly behind the horse, Jiang Qi also came to raise by the way.

'Grey Rhythm 、、、、' raised his front hooves in the air with the same excitement, waved them a few times in the air, and then took four hooves and rushed forward like an arrow from a string.
