Chapter 207: The Covenant of the Northern Kingdom

The young lady said: "These days are busy, I just thought about this, I don't think you have already done it, so good." ”

Now there were not many pedestrians on the streets, the roads were empty, and the procession gradually went faster, and after half an hour, the north gate was in sight.

The young lady has good eyesight, she has already seen the king, and waited at the north city gate with hundreds of officials. Li Er rode a green ox, followed by a group of inner government soldiers, who were also mixed in with the hundred officials.

Seeing this, the young lady said to her husband Huiwang: "When we arrive at the North City Gate, Yin Kang, Ying Ning and I will go to meet the king and resign, you take the team, don't stop, just go first, and arrive at Nankou Gang according to the plan today."

The husband returned to Wanglai and said in unison: "Order!" Wanglai came to the side of the road and waited to pass the word to the general managers behind.

Two moments later, the team arrived at the north city gate, and Ying Ning's carriage walked out of the convoy and came to the side to stop. Hua Bao and Fu Hui continued to move forward with the convoy and went out of the city gate.

Ying Ning got out of the carriage and came to the young lady and Yin Kang who had just dismounted, and the young lady hung the denim bag on the saddle and led the two to the king.

When the three of them arrived in front of the king, they bowed their hands and gave a salute, and the young lady said: "The minister is out of the customs, thank you for coming to see him off." ”

It has been a moment since the king arrived at the north city gate, and the chief of Yelu was not in a good mood at the banquet yesterday, and he only drank stuffy wine, and the king and the hundred officials wanted to see off the young lady, and they did not drink much. Seeing that the chief of Yelu was not happy, the king persuaded a few words, and the two decided to wait for the Yelu national teacher to be all right, and the king would feast on everyone of the Yelu tribe again.

The palace guard of honor was next to the north gate, carved out a martial law lot, set up a table, and poured three bottles of Zhuangxing wine.

The king and the hundred officials stood behind the table, and saw the young lady's procession from a distance, coming towards the north gate.

Yesterday at the banquet, the great chief of Jerod had delivered the parchment scroll from which the king had requisitioned two thousand slaves, and had not yet delivered it to the polymath. The king put the parchment roll next to the three bottles of wine, and waited for the polymath to come.

Neshi Jide was carrying a baggage, which contained the official hat of Ling Yin's official uniform, which had just been completed yesterday.

Xiangguo Jihei carries a bag full of various snacks.

Seeing that the young lady led Yin Kangying Ning to greet him and say goodbye, the king was very happy.

The king straightened his mood and said, "Aiqing doesn't need to be polite. Seeing that the three young ladies put down their hands, the king continued: "Aiqing went out of the customs before going out, alone with hundreds of officials, and gave Aiqing three bottles of strong wine, I wish Aiqing a smooth journey, show my benevolent government, and promote the prestige of our country." ”

After speaking, he picked up a bottle of wine on the table and handed it to the young lady.

The young lady took the wine bottle and said, "The minister will live up to the king's kindness!" After speaking, she drank the wine in the bottle in one gulp.

Put the bottle on the table, take the second bottle, and take a sip.

After drinking three bottles of wine, the king picked up the parchment scroll on the table, handed it to the young lady and said, "This is the document of 2,000 slaves sent by the chief of Yelu to Qing. ”

The young lady took the parchment roll and handed it to Ying Ning, who took the parchment roll and put it away.

At this time, Ji De took off the burden on his back, stepped forward, and said, "Please put away the official uniform of Ling Yin." ”

The young lady took the burden containing Ling Yin's official uniform and handed it to Ying Ning, who carried the burden.

After Ji De retreated, Ji Ping stepped forward with his baggage, and Yin Kang saw this and hurriedly stepped forward to greet his grandfather. Ji Ping handed the burden to Yin Kang and said, "It's all dried fruits here, you have not been in good health since you were a child, and you have taken it, it's okay to replenish some water." ”

Yin Kang thanked the eldest grandfather, took over the burden, and Ji Ping retreated behind the king.

Miss's exit team has already gone out of the city gate at this time, and has walked out for a while.

The young lady arched her hand and said to the king: "Thank you for sending the king." After speaking, he said to the hundred officials behind the king: "Thank you, thank you." ”

The king said, "Send you a thousand miles, you need to say goodbye in the end, Aiqing just go!"

The young lady arched her hand and said, "See you next day, farewell!"

The officials also bowed their hands one after another: "See you in the future, farewell!"

Miss turned back to the carriage and helped Yin Kangying put the burden in the carriage, and was about to get on the horse, Ying Ning said: "Miss, I want to learn to ride a horse, you can take the carriage." ”

The young lady had already taken the tiger tail whip on the saddle and was about to get on the horse, when she heard Ying Ning say this, she handed the tiger tail whip to Ying Ning, took off the denim bag on the saddle, and said, "You can try it." ”

Ying Ning has the ability to communicate with animals, took the young lady's tiger tail whip, circled around the horse, patted the horse's head and body, and turned over on the horse.

Seeing that Ying Ning was riding a horse, the young lady was not unfamiliar at all, so she relaxed and said to Yin Kang: "Why don't you take the carriage with my sister." ”

Yin Kang said: "It's easy to get out for a walk, I don't want to hold back in the car." After saying that, he turned over and got on the horse.

Seeing this, the young lady came to the carriage and stepped into the carriage with her baggage. The coachman flicked his whip, and the three of them headed for the north gate.

When the three of them got on the horse, Li Er had already said goodbye to the king, rode his oxen, and walked out of the city with twenty inner soldiers.

The young lady rearranged her denim bag in the carriage and put the parchment rolls of the requisitioned slaves in it.

When the carriage passed in front of the king and the hundred officials, the young lady removed the window and bowed to everyone.

The hundreds of officials behind the king also returned the salute one after another.

When the carriage passed in front of the king, the king said: "If Qing Ruo governs the northwest land outside the Guanwai, he will also go to enjoy the scenery of the northern country when he is alone." ”

The young lady bowed her hand to the king again and again, indicating that she knew.

The twenty inner soldiers who followed Li Er did not have horses, and followed Li Er to walk in a leisurely manner, and the three young ladies quickly caught up with Li Er and his party.

The two parties merged into a team and continued to walk forward, the young lady opened the curtain in the car and said to Yin Kang and Ying Ning outside: "You two are riding horses, you don't have to follow us, and you also go to the front of the horse convoy to help Hua Bao and Fu return to Wanglai, and by the way, see if there is anything special in the team."

The two of them answered the promise, beat their horses and went out to chase after the team that was in sight.

Yin Kang followed the young lady out of the far door twice, riding on a horse, and liked the feeling of being unrestrained and traveling in the world, thinking that the later the autumn came, the better, and he could play for more days.

The young lady saw that the two of them were chasing after the front team and went away, so she took out the jade flute and played. The young lady was in a good mood, and the tone she blew was cheerful and distant.

The king took the hundred officials, watched the young lady's carriage go away, listened to the melodious sound of the flute, and did not want to leave, and said in his heart: "When the customs are settled, I will definitely go to the customs for a visit." Until the sound of the flute could no longer be heard, the king announced the disbandment and returned to his own house with the hundred officials.

The sun was rising, and by noon the young lady's party had arrived at Machigang. This way, Ying Ning did not go to the front of the team, but followed Zhao Er and a few people, and walked forward with the team of slaves on foot. Ying Ning rode on a horse and followed Wang Lu, always paying attention to Wang Lu beside him.

The team rested at Machigang for two minutes, continued to set off, and arrived at Nankou Gang at three minutes.

Nankou Gang is the closest and largest military post in Juyong Pass. Ji He defended three passes and two stops, and the national lieutenant Ji used the front to live in the Nankou Gang, and led a thousand permanent soldiers to garrison Juyong Pass.
