On the ninth day of August, Li Xuan and his entourage continued to hurry.

After crossing the Yalu River, they set foot on the land of the Ming Dynasty, and the largest city nearby was the station of Dingliaowei.

Daming is a state of etiquette, and now that Li Xuan, a distinguished guest, is here, it is natural to treat each other with courtesy, so the generals of Dingliaowei are responsible for greeting him.

Normally, this kind of greeting should be the responsibility of civilian officials, but Dingliao is too remote, and there are few people except military households, so no local government has been set up.

"I didn't expect it...... Those of us also have the opportunity to do things with His Royal Highness King Xiang! Ding Liaowei commander Shi Jun said.

He is only thirty-five years old, but his face is already full of furrows, and there are many gray hairs between his temples.

Obviously, in this bitter cold place, even as a commander, life is extremely difficult.

In order to ensure their safety and guide the way, a deputy Qianhu of Dingliaowei joined his team with two hundred soldiers.

Having been in the city of Golden State for a long time, these people are already familiar with the city, and they wander around the places of recreation every day.

Spying wasn't part of his job, so he didn't really need to explain.

And the people of Dingliao who escorted him were also arranged outside the city together, waiting for Li Xuan's return in a few days.

Ye Hemingen smiled and asked rhetorically: "Just because of you, you also want to hurt me?" ”

"Yes, there is such a thing!"

Now he understands that these people have really seen the world, so he has less respect for the royal family.

The words of the prefect of Jinzhou made Li Xuan's mood sink to the bottom.

Before the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet began, he was very eager to see Zhu Jinghong, in order to have a bottom in his heart.

Because he was in such a hurry, Li Xuan and his family were so tired that neither of them had a private communication.

This time Li Xuan traveled, and the attendants and guards added up to five or six hundred people, so it was more troublesome to settle after entering the city.

Zhu Jinghong glanced back, and then said, "Girl, how can you get in?" ”

The prefect of Jinzhou smiled and said, "The prince of the world and rest, if His Highness remembers, I will see you!" ”

"This is really a great beauty!" Ye Heming said with grace left and right.

Let you be proud for two days, and after the Mid-Autumn Festival, I will reason with you......

Knowing that these people were coming for his wife, Li Xuan asked Jin Youyan to go in first, and at the same time he turned to Ye Hemingen and scolded, "Who are you? How dare you be so rude! ”

Obviously, compared to Jinyiwei, North Korea's Zuo Yiwei is even worse.

In stark contrast, Li Xuan in the crowd did not move at all, and was looking at Ye He Mingen at the moment.

Reducing his speed, Ye Hemingen stopped in front of Li Hui and the others, and looked at Jin Youyan rudely.

By the time Shi Junying walked out of the city gate, Li Xuan's team had stopped there, and a North Korean official had come forward to negotiate.

"That's right, I didn't see it!" Baoqin was very unconvinced.

In addition to the attendants who took care of his food and daily life, and several accompanying officials, his guards had other arrangements.

After everyone chatted for a while, Li Xuan and his party appeared, and they were going to stop here for an hour, and then continue to hurry.

Li Xuan couldn't imagine how prosperous and prosperous the land of Suzhou and Hangzhou in those poems, or the divine capital in the middle of today, should be.

Of course, the replacement of equipment is also among the investigations, but Li Xuan, who is in charge of state affairs, has not received any news.

"If you can't see it, forget it, and you'll understand it later!" Zhu Jinghong said calmly.

"You're lying!"

"We have made arrangements, and the prince can enter the city to rest!" Shi Jun said.

There is a garden in the back house of the Xue family, and the fish in it are not only numerous, but also all of them are fed fat.

"This is the border army of the Ming Court, which is at the middle and lower level in its combat sequence, and it can have such a supply ......" Li Xuan was speechless.

Although Li Xuan was angry, he also knew that if he wanted to move Zuo Yiwei, he had to make a decision from his father, so he could only report the situation and opinions.

Fortunately, he has already arrived in Jinzhou, and he doesn't have to rush in the next few days, so Li Xuan can have a good rest, and the return journey can be slower.

Thinking like this in his heart, Ye Hemingen smiled, and then scolded his subordinates: "Come back, don't talk about beating at every turn, we are polite people!" ”

"Brother-in-law......"

"Brother-in-law...... I heard my father say that there is a will for you to control Yanliao's soldiers and horses? ”

"Those people in Zuo Yiwei are all rubbish!" Li Xuan scolded angrily.

But Li Xuan, who had settled down, was in a very bad mood at this time.

Because it is a border guard, the Dingliao guard is in a state of overstaffing, and there are a total of six thousand households under its jurisdiction, but only two thousand households are stationed in the city, and the rest are distributed in the border forts.

At this time, Li Xuan said in a gloomy tone: "General Zheng, you are from the army, whether you are a new armor or not, you can still see it when you think about it!" ”

"It's ...... There is some truth to that! ”

Bao Qin replied, "They didn't let me in, I said my brother-in-law was looking for me, and then they let me go!" ”

Even the armor, weapons, and food supplies of the Myeongjeongshousu army were no worse than those of the most elite army in North Korea.

At this time, Baoqin had already come closer, and she first looked at the bamboo basket, and then said, "After fishing for so long, there is not a single one!" ”

"Shizi, this is it, if you need anything, just send someone to tell me!"

Because Ye Hemingen knew that Zhu Jinghong's purpose in engaging in such a big battle this time was to clean up the North Koreans.

After staying in Dingliao for an hour and resting for a while, Li Xuan's team was able to continue on their way.

At this time, according to the flag, Ye Heming Encha knew that there were North Koreans in front of him, which made him have fewer scruples.

Li Xuan replied: "We can't hurt you, but His Royal Highness King Xiang can kill you!" ”

"Your king is bedridden, and his son is now down...... You Koreans are too weak! Shi Jun directly mocked.

Normally, such eunuchs should be punished, but Zhu Jinghong is not a ruthless machine, and he really has no incentive to punish these "empathetic" eunuchs.

At this time, his entourage was cleaning up the house, so he stood at the gate in a daze, and no one came to disturb him at the scene, only the princess Jin Youyan and several chamberlains accompanied him.

The Zuo Yiwei in his mouth is ostensibly a palace guard, but he is actually doing the errand of Jinyiwei.

Let's say that when Li Xuan entered the city, he found that even if it was a city on the border of the Ming Dynasty, its prosperity was no worse than that of Seoul.

The eunuchs accompanying Li Xuan blocked in front of the master one after another, and they were obviously scared like chaff.

Zhu Jinghong did not ask them to come to Jinzhou because he felt that it was enough to use the prefect to receive them.

From Dingliaowei to the southwest, the population gradually became denser, and the accommodation conditions were better during the period

And this walk is four days later, and the time came to August 13, and Li Xuan and his entourage finally came to the outside of Jinzhou City.

"The North Koreans have arrived, let's go and greet them!" Shi Jun said.

Counterintuitively, things in the world are often not better than good, but worse than others.

"Doesn't that mean that there are so many and so many troops that must be at your disposal!"

"I'm afraid of death, and I'm afraid of death!" Li Xuan replied.

Li Xuan is familiar with the Ming Dynasty rules and regulations, so he can see at a glance that the officials who greet him are only five grades.

In this way, it is necessary for North Korea to re-examine the balance of power between itself and the Ming Dynasty, and to redefine the relationship with each other.

So Li Xuan's choice is correct, he really shouldn't get out of the car, otherwise Shi Jun's choreography is indispensable.

"The son of the world is tired of driving and driving, and he is not well...... It's resting now! ”

North Korea also has its own intelligence agency, and its focus is on the Ming army, with a particular focus on the deployment and movement of border troops.

To the surprise of the North Korean army, these ordinary Ming soldiers ate well, such as three steamed buns per person for dinner, as well as two pieces of smoked fish and a bowl of soup.

Of course, Li Xuan didn't want to show up, because he guessed that he would be bullied, so it was better to hide and be clean, although it seemed a bit rude.

"Wild and barbaric, shameless!" Li Xuan sneered.

Fortunately, this was just a small episode, Shi Jun didn't have as much confidence as Yu Hai after all, and he was only allowed to leave after a few interrogations, and the North Korean team was able to enter the city.

"Thank you!"

Fortunately, there was a plan in advance, and everything was carried out in an orderly manner.

"Dingliaowei has changed his armor, and his musket has also been replaced...... No one reported it? Li Xuan was furious.

It's just that in this place, not only Li Xuan's family lives, but also people from the Jurchen tribes, but they are divided into different houses.

During this time, the Jurchen leaders, including Ye Hemingen, all stayed in Jinzhou City to wait, and they also participated in the Mid-Autumn Festival.

But under such conditions, Zhu Jinghong sat here for half an hour, stunned that not a single fish was baited.

The dozen or so soldiers who followed him laughed in approval, and some even commented.

In order to ensure that the people in front of him can understand, Li Xuan uses the official dialect of the Central Plains, and his spoken English is very good.

Compared to the life of the tribe, the life of the Golden State is equivalent to heaven, which has made these people feel happy.

In today's Ming Dynasty, Jinyiwei has continuous problems, and Zuo Yiwei has also learned these.

Ye Hemingen didn't speak, and his own soldiers on the left and right couldn't bear it, so they drew their knives and wanted to step forward.

Although there are many beauties in Jinzhou City, those daughters of the wind and dust can compare to the temperament of the princess of the Joseon Dynasty.

"Hmm!" Zhu Jinghong is still calm.

At this time, Li Xuan really had a need, so he heard him say: "I want to meet His Royal Highness King Xiang!" ”

But on the contrary, Li Xuan did not back down and scolded Ye Hemingen, which shows that he also has some courage.

Shi Jun asked, "Where is your son?" Why didn't he show up? ”

Hundreds of meters away, in the heavily guarded courtyard of the Xue family's house, Zhu Jinghong was sitting on a chair at this time, holding a fishing rod and facing the pond.

has such a powerful brother-in-law, and has such a good relationship with herself, she is bragging to her sisters when she goes back, and her waist is a lot harder.

"I am the prince of Joseon, invited by His Royal Highness King Xiang, to the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, you hurt me before the banquet, and it is His Highness's face that falls!"

At this time, Jin Youyan also looked at this side, just opposite Ye Hemingen's eyes.

He had already understood Zhu Jinghong's intentions, so he would not show a hospitable attitude to this guest who came from afar.

Ye Heming's eyes were sharp, and in the crowd in front of him, it was easy to notice Jin Youyan.

"Where?"

Along the way, the ordinary soldiers of North Korea had contact with the border troops of the Ming Army Guard Station and gained some understanding of each other.

"Far away, close in front of you......"

Li Xuan's words, Ye Hemingen couldn't disagree, he really didn't dare to do anything to Li Xuan.

Hearing him say this at this moment, the rest of the generals laughed, so they talked about the old things in the northwest battlefield.

Zheng Quanzhi really saw that what he said just now was just to play a round, and at this time he only hated himself for not talking too much.

Hearing this crisp voice, Zhu Jinghong's originally heavy heart immediately felt like being watered by a sweet spring.

This Mid-Autumn Festival banquet will probably be a Hongmen banquet...... Li Xuan was very worried.

Outside Jinzhou City, I learned that Li Xuan came and was responsible for greeting the prefect of Jinzhou, after all, he was the highest-ranking civil official here.

For Zhu Jinghong, there are simply too many things to consider.

After everyone retreated, Ye Hemingen didn't stay any longer, and led his men to another mansion.

Although the language of the two sides was incomprehensible, just from the demeanor and tone of these people, Li Xuan knew that they definitely had no good words.

Watching them walk away, Li Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, and then turned around and entered the mansion, and then he had to comfort his wife.

He knew it was depravity and that it would be difficult to save himself.

Since it was pointless to be angry, Li Xuan didn't want to talk about anything that he didn't have, so he exchanged a few polite words with the officials who greeted him, and then returned to the carriage and entered the city.

He found that he had come to the right place this time, and his impression of Daming was very vague in the past, but now it is more real to see it with his own eyes.

Hearing this undisguised disdain, Zhu Jinghong said: "Who said that he didn't take the bait? ”

At this moment, he finally understood why those officials who had been to the Ming Dynasty, especially those who had taken the Ming Jinshi exam, always had an indescribable arrogance.

Zhu Jinghong knew that this was a lie, and the eunuchs guarding outside also knew that those "smart people" were the best at figuring out the master's thoughts, so they simply pretended to be stupid and let Baoqin in.

"Perhaps...... After King Xiang arrived, he changed the weapons and armor for the border army! Zheng Quanzhi, the commander of Shizi Yiwei, explained.

There is a prince and son-in-law in the family, and he is also the famous Ming God of War, and now this re-commander of the army may make new achievements, Baoqin feels excited just thinking about it.

Ye Hemingen also has some official words, but he only listens to him and says: "I look at the beauty, what does it have to do with you?" ”

"Beauty!"

Faced with the questioning, Baoqin said frankly: "Now that I have told you, it is not a lie!" ”

Looking back on the recent past, he had to admit that all the actions of the Ming Dynasty or the King of Xiang were aimed at North Korea.

This made him very unhappy, but the North Korea behind him was not strong enough, which caused his waist pole to be not hard enough, so he could only hide his anger in his heart.

"Oh?"

What is Yan Liao's next move, how to grasp the proportions, how to deal with changes in the court, and how to balance the relationship with the crown prince......

At this time, there were only eunuchs around Li Xuan, and all his guards were placed separately, and in the face of more than a dozen people in Ye Hemingen, the combat effectiveness was almost negligible.

When what she wanted was confirmed, Baoqin immediately became excited, so she said, "Brother-in-law, you are so powerful!" ”

Ye Hemingen's burning gaze really frightened Jin Youyan, so she immediately looked away and hid behind Li Xuan.

He didn't really care about it, so he was thinking about it.

"The prince is here, the journey is tiring, and the city has prepared a building for the prince to rest!"

At this time, Ye Hemingen led a group of personal soldiers, beat horses and approached the box, laughing and scolding between words.

"You're not afraid of death?" Ye Heming asked coldly.

The girl's smile is like a flower, and her youthful and beautiful state really has a strong healing effect, making Zhu Jinghong feel much younger, although he is only eighteen years old now.

Sighing, Zhu Jinghong looked stunned and said, "Girl, in fact, I have nothing!" ”
