Chapter 18 Entering Beijing
The third prince is going to take the princess from Fengdu City into Beijing, a grand ceremonial ceremony, a beautiful horse team, a beautiful float, he sent someone to the capital last night to deliver a letter, and they set off early in the morning.
The team marched mightily on the official road, and the people of Fengdu City came out to watch and bid farewell.
The road was full of people, they all wanted to witness the heroic appearance of the three princes, it was because of his existence that the country had been stable in recent years, and the common people respected the heroes, not to mention their protectors. I also want to appreciate the demeanor of the princess, what kind of woman can get his favor? The princess, a mysterious woman, can shine at the demon capture meeting.
Xu Yao was dressed in purple, still so cold and handsome, still so domineering, and the respect of the king burst out. He rode the "Black Pearl", his good companion who had been born and died, and this horse was dressed in a black mane and shining light, and he walked in front of the group with his head held high, so he was very eye-catching. The crowd next to him all applauded him, and he smiled and waved in return.
People who want to see the princess are a little disappointed, Yuhan is sitting in the carriage, the green curtain is low, so that people can't see the face and figure, only the mystery that can't be seen.
yesterday
They talked alone in the room, and it was only then that the grand occasion of returning to Beijing was born.
Yuhan looked at Xu Yao and said, "Don't go back to Beijing quietly, it's better to enter Beijing with great fanfare, the bigger the action, the better." ”
Xu Yao asked, "Why?"
"Because no matter how stealthy you are, they know all your whereabouts, and even the common people know it clearly, is it necessary to hide and hide. ”
"That's the case, it's better to plan it, just say that I and the princess will enter Beijing, and let my father and the emperor prepare to welcome it. ”
"Hey, don't get involved with me. ”
"Hahaha! Wouldn't it be beautiful to kill two birds with one stone," he said and laughed and left.
"Whoa!" Yuhan glared at his back and wrapped himself in again.
The procession traveled slowly for a whole day, and in the evening came to the castle of Kyoto, where the buildings are magnificent, prosperous and noisy, but not comparable to ordinary cities, the simple and majestic city walls, the dark red and thick city gates, all show his majesty and greatness.
The welcoming procession went out of the city to wait, starting from the entrance of the city gate, the spacious main street was crowded with people, they came to greet the three princes and watch the excitement.
Leading the horse and waiting at the gate of the city were the second prince Ziye and the sixth prince Yichen, who received the emperor's dictation.
When Xu Yao and the others drove their horses to the city gate.
"Third brother," the second prince Ziye was the first to wave at Xu Yao with a smile.
Xu Yao glanced at him coldly, whispered "Second Brother", then jumped off the horse and went straight to the Sixth Prince Yichen, and hugged him with a smile: "Sixth Brother"
"Third brother" Yichen shouted happily.
The second prince looked embarrassed, looking at the intimacy between them, the corners of his mouth hooked, revealing a strange smile.
All of this was caught in the eyes of Yuhan, who just lifted the curtain behind him.
"Sixth brother, come, this is your third sister-in-law"
Yichen is a very gentle and cheerful teenager.
Hurriedly possessed and bent down in front of the car to salute, "Yichen has seen the third sister-in-law,"
Yuhan stepped out of the carriage to return the salute, her beautiful eyes swept over the young man's fair face, and she smiled slightly. He looked at Prince Ziye, who was already standing behind them, and bowed, "I've seen the second brother." ”
Yuhan thought to herself, since she became a princess, she couldn't be rude, and she couldn't be looked down upon.
Ziye smiled: "Okay, good, brother and sister, let's go into the city together!"
Only then did everyone get back on their horses and enter the city together.
As soon as he entered the city gate, the crowd began to boil, "Welcome the three princes back to the capital, the three princes are invincible, Chitose Chitose Chitose." People shouted.
The three of them rode horses side by side on the street, Xu Yao kept waving in the center, the second prince was on the left, the sixth prince was on the right, and Yuhan also rolled up the curtains, infected by this enthusiasm, smiling at the welcoming crowd, showing her politeness and respect for everyone.
In the noisy and chaotic crowd stood a gorgeously dressed, delicate, dignified, and wearing a large sunhat, her eyes fluctuated, and she never left Yuhan and her carriage for half an inch, until she watched them slowly walk away, and finally she held the brim of her hat and nodded to the two girls beside her, and the three of them suddenly disappeared into the crowd.
Yuhan followed Xu Yao back to the Zhewei Palace, because when he was a child, the emperor divided Xu Yao as the king of Zhewei, and gave him this name by dividing the area of Zhewei City, Zhewei City is north, close to the barbarian country of Horlock, they are harassed from time to time, coupled with the sparse population of the vast land, and finally completely occupied by the Horlock State.
The king of Zhewei became a real existence, Xu Yao grew up and wanted to send troops to fight several times to take back the Zhewei area, but the results were all put aside, one is that other events are more important, and the other is that the city of Zhewei is really not easy to fight, not only the location is difficult, but also the country of Holo has become very strong in recent years.
The emperor asked to cancel the title of the king of Zhewei and seal other places, but Xu Yao refused, and was determined to take back this place and be a real king of Zhewei.
The emperor had no choice but to let him.
The palace of the three princes is very magnificent, the building is tall, surrounded by rockery and woods, revealing majesty, the palace wall and the house are in accordance with the architectural style and color of the palace, it is the palace of the capital in addition to the palace, it can be called a unique mansion.
The palace housekeeper Jin Bo and the three princes' personal guard leader Wo Longsheng, the six divine dragons guarded Kun, Ze, Cang, Dian, Chou, and Mei, as well as hundreds of palace maids and domestic servants greeted them outside the palace gate, which made Yuhan really surprised.
Everyone was very happy to learn that the prince had returned home, but for the suddenly extra princess, they were confused for a while, and it was strange to look at Yuhan's eyes, their prince never loved women, he was only concerned with the country, this is not the emperor to see that he was old, and he chose a princess for him, but he refused on the spot, how to go out alone, and brought a princess back, it is really puzzling.
However, when everyone sees Yuhan's beauty and temperament, everyone has indescribable comfort and love, that weak and light demeanor, that humble and noble demeanor, that graceful voice, and a plain dress like a fairy in the sky, no wonder a hero like the prince is also tempted.
Xu Yao arranged for Yuhan to sleep in his inner bedroom, and let the dragon guard Mei to protect Yuhan's safety at all times.
The second prince Ziye sent Xu Yao to the palace and went to the palace to resume his life, while the sixth prince Yichen stayed in the palace to have dinner with them.
Yichen quickly became acquainted with Yuhan, and after a few conversations, they were completely subdued by Yuhan's profound knowledge, wit, and beauty and generosity, especially Yuhan's performance in Fushi Castle, which simply made him impressed and admired, and he had only worshiped the third brother before.
secretly admired the third brother's good eyesight. He is one year younger than Yuhan, six years younger than Xu Yao, and there are two elder brothers in the middle, the fourth prince Shen Inferior and the fifth prince Yongcong, and he only walks closest to Xu Yao on weekdays.
Yichen's mother is the concubine of Emperor Naqi, and she is also the mother of Princess Jiayi, and now she is very favored by the emperor.
Empress Zheng has no children for life, but Xu Yao was brought up by her, she loves her very much, and she is like a mother and son. Xu Yao's mother died of illness when he was three years old, and the emperor entrusted him to Empress Zheng.
Over the years, the emperor stayed in the palace and lived in a simple house, except for the daily court, he rarely appeared, he fell in love with writing poetry and painting, simply fascinated.
On weekdays, the general affairs of national politics are handled by agreement between the eldest prince Yongchun and the ministers of the upper house led by the prime minister Liu Lanfeng; The ordinary military affairs are fully responsible for the three princes Xu Yao, Li Anquan, and the second marshal Busu. When encountering major issues, they will be resolved when they go to court.
The heroes of Fushi Fort were kidnapped, 800 people suddenly disappeared, and they were involved in the Utopian country, this kind of major event must be decided by the emperor before he can act.
Overnight, Xu Yao re-wrote a book of notebooks and prepared to hand it over to his father tomorrow, asking to act quickly and send troops urgently, otherwise the lives of these 800 people would not be guaranteed.
Also, let his father withdraw from the marriage, and let Yuhan go to the main hall to see his father, so that he will completely die. He wouldn't marry a woman he didn't love as a princess, he wouldn't want any princess, and he didn't have time to fall in love. His plan is to rescue everyone as soon as possible, send everyone home, and then he has to complete a major heart disease for many years, and fully prepare to recover the land of Zhewei, which is his fiefdom and his sad place, because it is still his mother's hometown.
Because Yuhan slept in the inner room, Xu Yao put the quilt in the coat and slept in order to let everyone confirm their relationship on the surface.
Nothing was said all night.
