Changan
The snow had been falling for several days, and the snow was no longer up to the ankles. A large number of cattle and sheep have already headed south, and countless grain convoys have trudged through the snow and come towards the evil land.
The imperial court has decided that the original evil homeland will be divided into two and assigned to the two protectorates of Anxi and Beiting. The original Evil King Court was a place under the joint management of the two capital protectors, and two new festival envoys were stationed here to manage the evil homeland, and their positions were at the same level as those of the capital.
"Crowning Shengrui as the envoy of the North Court Festival ......"
"Crowning Lin Zhengang as the envoy of the Anxi Festival ......"
With the arrival of the edict, the end of the year is approaching.
This year was full of wars, the awakening of the Demon Emperor, and the fall of the Holy Realm, which were enough to have an indelible impact on the days to come.
The Qianyuan royal family was crumbling, the Shangjing royal family was still addicted to gentleness, and the dragon yuan of the dark world was also attacked by the Moon Swallowing Clan and several demon clans in the council. As for the Heavenly Saint Emperor Room, the battle for the position of Prince intensified with the return of Zhaoning.
At the same time as the two Shangdu guards were sealed, the edict asking Zhaoning to return to Chang'an was also sent to Zhaoning. Taking the invitation with both hands, Zhao Ning remained still for a few seconds. All this that happened in Anxi made Zhaoning feel as if Chang'an was too far away, but he didn't expect that he would have to go back now. Zhao Ning couldn't calm down for a long time, and hurriedly packed his belongings and prepared to return. Not only Zhaoning, but also the army will take turns on holidays, and there are many people who pack up with Zhaoning.
"Seventh brother, the Lord has asked you to come over." Zhang You knocked on Zhaoning's door and shouted into the house.
"Got it!" A shout came, and then the door opened, and a figure ran out.
Looking at the panicked, Zhang You thought, walked into the house, and saw if he had anything to help Zhao Ning clean up. As a result, all the items were put into a bag by Zhaoning, and there was an empty shell left in the whole room. Seeing this, Zhang You couldn't help but shake his head and laugh.
"I've seen Your Highness!" "I've seen Kamitogo!"
The two said hello, and Lin Zhengang smiled and asked Zhao Ning if he had almost packed his things, and the large army that had returned to Qiuzi was ready to set off to see if Zhao Ning was with them.
"Thank you for your concern, Zhaoning is going to go back to Qiuzi with them, and then the brothers will return to Chang'an together."
Lin Zhengang nodded and walked towards the interior of the palace with Zhao Ning. Walking outside a small room, Lin Zhengang sensed the surroundings, and after making sure that there was no one, he walked in. Closing the door, Lin Zhengang's face suddenly became serious.
Zhao Ning was already strange, but when he saw Lin Zhengang like this, he immediately guessed what the other party was thinking.
"Your Highness has returned to Chang'an this time, but are you mentally prepared?"
"It's done."
"Then is His Highness ready to return to Chang'an?"
Zhaoning understands that it seems that this Lin Zhengang is preparing to join his own Ziyang Wang Party. When he heard this sentence and was not prepared, Zhao Ning took a deep breath and replied calmly,
"It's a bit of a contradiction, but there's a plan."
Lin Zhengang nodded when he heard this, Zhao Ning had his own ideas, he was inconvenient to ask, and it was enough to hear a plan.
Thinking of this, Lin Zhengang knelt down towards Zhaoning, who didn't stop him, just watched quietly.
"Chen Lin Zhengang is willing to die for His Highness!"
Lin Zhengang has his own thoughts, his allegiance to Chen Hu is two different things, he looks at Zhaoning's identity and potential, and he plans his future. But it doesn't matter, since he has already boarded Zhaoning's ship, he is naturally tied to Zhaoning.
At least for now he is absolutely faithful. There is a heavenly realm, why don't you do it.
"Shangdu Hu is up quickly, I don't know what Shangdu Hu's wish is?"
"The minister wants to have a glance at the Jixian Palace, in order to go further, and he can enter the Marshal's Mansion."
Zhaoning nodded, when they reached the realm of Lin Zhengang, they couldn't go any further, looking at the four halls, and entering the Marshal's Mansion was the only thing they pursued in the rest of their time.
Jixian Hall is located in the Chang'an Palace, gathering the world's secret books and exercises, countless family secrets and ancient legends are here. If you want to enter the palace to watch, you need great military merit, at least you have to kill an enemy Heavenly Realm or Demon King, and although Lin Zhengang is a Heavenly Realm, he is the lower grade of the three grades of the Heavenly Realm, and this goal is probably quite difficult to complete by himself, but it is not impossible. As for entering the Marshal's Mansion, it would be impossible for Lin Zhengang himself.
And like one of the four halls, the Longtu Hall can only be entered by the imperial king and the holy king, like Lin Zhengang, it is impossible to enter the palace for a lifetime.
However, everything has taken a turn for the better for Lin Zhengang. As long as Lin Zhengang helps Zhaoning seize the throne, with the vast exercises of the imperial family, he can always help Lin Zhengang break through the limit!
"Shangdu Hu, Lone has a question."
"Your Highness, please advise."
"Why doesn't Shangdu Hu consider considering the lonely imperial uncle? Why Lonely? ”
Lin Zhengang's face was bitter, and he said,
"Your Royal Highness, although the prince is noble, the only person the prince trusts is the twenty-four scholars and ministers of the East Palace, and he can't get into the eyes of the prince. It is also that His Highness's power has just extended to Anxi, and the ministers can enter His Highness's eyes. ”
Zhao Ning has always known that his imperial uncle is stubborn and paranoid, and he knows that he has always attached great importance to the eighteen scholars of the East Palace. The eighteen scholars could be said to be loyal to the prince, but on the contrary, the prince's power had not grown for so many years: no one else was taken seriously in the East Palace, so naturally no one joined the princelings. Although the princelings are powerful, the centrists are even more powerful!
This is the opportunity of King Liang, and it is also the opportunity of King Ziyang!
Which one makes people remember that Lin Zhengang knows it, and he can't add flowers. Although the Ziyang King Party is weak now, Lin Zhengang knows that King Liang has King Liang on the King of Ziyang, Gao Ding Wu Weibo in the back, and the infinite favor of the Holy Emperor! An overseer of the Eightfold Realm, but unheard of!
After chatting with Lin Zhengang for a few more words, Zhaoning left the palace. Lin Zhengang is already an envoy of the Anxi Festival, and he wants to go further, it is really a human desire without limits!
Zhao Ning thought as he looked up at the sky.
"Pray that everything goes well when I go back to Chang'an this time!"
In the early morning of the next day, the gate of the Evil King's Court slowly opened, breaking the silence of the morning. Figures came out of the city and rushed towards Qiuzi.
After a few days of running in the snowfield, Zhaoning and his gang arrived in Saibei City. Looking at the majestic city wall of Saibei from afar, it looks like a giant standing in the snowfield, protecting Anxi.
When you arrive in Saibei, you will leave the evil homeland, leave the grassland, and enter the desert.
In the desert, there is either a long stretch of yellow sand or snow, and Zhaoning gallops on it with a large army.
"Zhaoning, what did you say happened to the second and sixth brothers?" Peng Feng said with some expectation that he and Li Daoke hadn't seen each other for a long time.
"In my opinion, the second brother still doesn't dare to confess his heart to Miss Zhao!"
"Then he's really ...... It's really timid. Peng Feng thought for a long time before saying a cowardice.
Nangong Xu was also smiling, chatting with Peng Hou about how to go to Changyuan Lake to meet a beautiful woman after returning to Chang'an. ✪ω✪。 `)。
By the time we got to Qiuzi, it was already dusk. Before the city gate was closed, Zhaoning and his gang entered the city, and after entering the city, Zhaoning and the others rushed to the residence of Li Daoke and the others.
Just seeing Li Daoke and Yue Dan hooking their shoulders and preparing to go back to the house, Zhao Ning shouted excitedly,
"Second brother!! Sixth brother!! ”
Then the five of them rode their horses and ran to the two with smiles on their faces. After a long period of hugging and greetings, everyone tied their horses into the house. Almost sleepless all night, everyone shared their experiences, especially Peng Feng, when he talked about the focus of the battle, he roared out all of a sudden, causing the surrounding people to knock on the door countless times, if it weren't for how early the people in the house rushed in and scolded Peng Feng angrily.
With the east spitting white, the light snow welcomes the day, and the seven people officially embark on the road back. Before leaving, Li Daoke went to Lao Zhao's wine shop and chatted with Zhao Lao, and finally saw the two of them walking out happily.
At this point, seven people set off!
Seven fast horses, all the way to the dust. Laugh into your arms, embrace the mountains and rivers with dreams. When you are in a good time to return to your hometown, how can you go all the way without singing!
The guards were left far behind, and Ma Liang was alone and far ahead.
In this way, the seven people of Zhaoning approached Lanzhou.
"Forget it, Zhang Ziliang won't be able to make sense in a day and a half, it's better to go back to Chang'an as soon as possible!"
When Peng Feng heard Nangong Xu's plan to ask Zhaoning to enter Lanzhou to see Zhang Ziliang, he immediately became anxious.
"What do you know, the reckless man returns to his hometown, he really doesn't know the severity!"
"Who do you say is a reckless man!"
"I said you were a reckless man!"
All of a sudden, Peng Feng Nangong Xu fought, and everyone who watched cheered!
In the end, the six people unanimously decided not to enter Lanzhou and go back to Chang'an directly! The angry Nangong Xu scolded and scolded for a long time.
"Third brother, don't be angry, although Lanzhou is important, I want to go back to Beijing to meet Shen Guogong as soon as possible."
"Shen Guogong in Chang'an?"
"It should still be there!"
"Then what are you waiting for, big brother, hurry up!"
With that, Nangong Xu galloped out of the horse and single-handedly accelerated the speed of the seven people.
There is also light snow fluttering near Chang'an, and the ground is muddy. The slippery and muddy ground slowed down the crowd.
However, Chang'an is almost here.
Feeling cowardly in his hometown, Zhaoning actually felt nervous. I don't know if my family has been okay since the spring, and I don't know if Li Ji is okay. I was about to see each other, and there was an indescribable panic in my heart.
Looking at Peng Feng, he didn't shout, but just rode quietly. For a while, the team could only hear the sound of snow falling and the wind blowing.
Suddenly, a fast horse came towards the seven people, and it seemed that it should be Ma Liang.
"Your Highness!"
Ma Liang shouted as he ran to Zhao Ning,
"Your Highness, Chang'an is almost here, and you can see it when you turn over the mountain in front. The subordinates specially came to report. ”
"Let's go, then." Zhao Ning looked at the excited Ma Liang, and his emotions gradually became high.
I'm home!!
Climb over Xuecen and look at Chang'an. I saw the lights of thousands of homes, the city gate was full of cars and horses, and pedestrians came and went.
The wind swept, the bamboo moved, and a horse rushed out.
Staying outside Chang'an City, Zhaoning looked at the majestic city wall, and the haze of war seemed to be far away for a while, and all that was left was the expectation of home and the expectation of the year.
Now Zhaoning feels that he is no longer the King of Ziyang on the front line, but the Saint Zhaoning of the Liang Palace.
When they entered the city, they were separated, and each went in the direction of his home.
The big tree in the middle of Qinglong Street has long been bald, only a bare piece remains, and the stalls below are lit on fire in the light snow, which looks a little dazzling. The wine shops and temples on both sides have not changed, as if they were the same as before leaving.
Walking around the corner and walking to the familiar street corner, Zhao Ning dismounted and led the horse to walk slowly.
The brocade hat and ermine fur were draped on his body, and Zhao Ning didn't feel cold, but felt the throbbing again.
Knocking lightly on the door of King Liang's Mansion, Zhao Ning stood at the door and waited. The three big characters of Liang Wangfu were infinitely enlarged in Zhaoning's eyes, and the dragon pattern on them seemed to have come to life, flying and swimming in Zhaoning's eyes......
Just as Zhao Ning was in a daze, the door was opened. The subordinate was listless, holding his hands and sighing, but when he saw that the person was a little familiar, he wiped his eyes in disbelief, and shouted after being sure.
"Your Highness has returned home!! His Royal Highness has returned home! Come on!! ”
In an instant, a bunch of people surrounded them, their eyes full of concern. After the salute, everyone was busy asking if everything was okay with Zhaoning.
Zhao Ning replied yes and handed the horse to the next person.
"Shh
Zhao Ning made a gesture and signaled not to tell Princess Liang.
"Can my father, mother, and concubine be together?"
"Your Royal Highness, King Liang and Princess Liang are all enjoying the snow in the lakeside pavilion."
Lake refers to the small lake in the Liang Wangfu, listening to the rain lake. Zhao Ning said a word clearly, and quietly walked over.
From a distance, he saw the two of them standing by the lake, with their backs to themselves. Zhao Ning went up and sent a maid and took the fruit bowl and stood behind him. Looking at the seven or eight maids standing in brocade, Zhao Ning secretly complained about luxury. But immediately I heard the voice of King Liang,
"Some fruit."
Zhao Ning walked up with the rest of the maids smiling and brought the fruit up. The princess was stunned when she turned to take the fruit, and then the wine glass fell to the ground.
"Ning'er?"
When King Liang heard this call, he hurriedly turned around and saw Zhao Ning looking at the two with a smile on his face.
"Father, mother, I'm back."
"Ning'er!" The mother concubine stepped forward and slapped off the plate, hugged Zhaoning, and instantly cried for no reason.
Zhao Ning patted the princess while comforting, and at the same time looked at King Liang with a smile. King Liang also had watery eyes, looking Zhaoning up and down.
"Ning'er, you're dark!" King Liang spoke slowly, with a hint of choking.
"Also, I'm still thin." The princess cried and added.
"Don't, mother, I'm still fat! It's black, but it doesn't affect my son's handsomeness! ”
Princess Liang burst out laughing. King Liang scolded the stinky boy with a smile, and also stepped forward to hug Zhaoning. The three of them felt the happiness that had not arrived for a long time by the listening rain lake.
At this moment, in the Pengchenghou Mansion, Pengchenghou was resting, and suddenly the door was kicked open, which frightened Pengchenghou, who was dreaming, immediately woke up and jumped up from the bed.
"Dad, Peng Hou and I are back!"
Peng Chenghou was about to get angry, and when he saw Peng Feng and Peng Hou standing at the door, he suddenly fell asleep and stepped forward.
