The sun is getting higher.
Knowing that the march was slow, Jiang Suizhou sat in the carriage and waited. Fortunately, Lin'an is near the water and there are many trees outside the city. Even if the sun is shining, it will not be too hot.
It wasn't until noon that soldiers rode far away to report, saying that General Lou was about to arrive.
Jiang Suizhou quickly got out of the carriage and walked to Daozhong and stopped.
As Lou Yue's class returned to Beijing, the army had to stop outside the Nancheng Gate, so the entire Nancheng Gate was under martial law. At this time, the guards of honor were rigorous everywhere, and officials from the Ministry of Rites headed by Jiang Suizhou were listed. Looking from a distance, they were solemn and solemn.
After a while, the sound of horse hooves was faintly heard. Jiang Suizhou looked towards the end of the road and saw the army coming from far away.
The leader was a general riding on a tall horse. He looked very tall and his shoulders were as heavy as a mountain. He was wearing silver armor and a scarlet cloak behind him hunting up. At a glance, he knew that this was General Lou Yuelou.
Jiang Suizhou was a little nervous, holding a thin sweat in his hand.
Lou Yue must have met the original owner, but he has only seen this person's name in history books. It was the first time to see him in person.
Although he is now familiar with King Jing’s identity, no one can tell the difference when he waits, but he does not rule out that this general has a torch-like eye and a rough and thin, or that the original owner has had any contacts with Lou Yue, but he doesn’t know it. It was exposed in front of Lou Yue.
Jiang Suizhou took a deep breath and waited quietly for Lou Yue to walk a few feet in front of him.
Seeing Lou Yue stopped the horse, Jiang Suizhou smiled slightly and bowed to salute him: "This king welcomes General Lou, congratulates General Lou on the triumphant victory, and raises my grand prestige!"
Seeing Lou Yue laughed loudly, he turned over and jumped off the horse, and bowed to Jiang Suizhou with a fist.
"Finally, thank you prince!"
Seeing this, Jiang Suizhou also guessed that the two had nothing to do with each other before, and they were very familiar with each other. Even looking at his attitude, I'm afraid that he was focused on the battlefield, and he still didn't know how Huo Wujiu married him as a concubine a few months ago.
Jiang Suizhou breathed a sigh of relief. The smile on his face couldn't help but became a little sincere, and a few steps forward, he held Lou Yue's arm.
At this stall, he looked at Lou Yue quickly.
The tall and strong one looks a bit like the portraits in the history books. He was in his forties at this time, in his prime of life. Although the perennial wind, frost, rain and snow made the wrinkles on his face deeper, he did not appear old, but added a bit of fortitude.
"The general doesn't need to be polite." Jiang Suizhou retracted his gaze and smiled. "The boat and car are exhausted, the general has worked hard, right?"
Lou Yue saw that he had a gentle expression, and his speech was not like a civilian officer holding a gun and a stick. He also laughed and greeted him, "It's not hard! The end general Su Ri is used to staying on horseback, this time. I didn't rush back to Beijing, so I was very relaxed."
Jiang Suizhou followed him with a few words of greeting, and praised him with great emphasis.
"This king is here today to welcome the general into the city." After the greeting, Jiang Suizhou said. "The emperor has hosted a banquet in the palace, waiting to reward the general. As long as the general has arranged the three armies here, we can enter the city."
Lou Yue nodded repeatedly, and then asked: "I just don't know, the emperor has said that what will happen to my soldiers from now on? It's no way to stop outside the city with so many people."
Jiang Suizhou paused.
According to his knowledge of history books, after returning to Beijing this time, Lou Yue was cut off his military power step by step. All the soldiers and horses in his hand went into the hands of Pangdang after passing through the Ministry of War.
After that, the Lord had made such a plan a long time ago when he asked him to return to Beijing with his soldiers to receive the reward.
Jiang Suizhou was silent for a moment, and said vaguely: "The emperor said that after the Ministry of War counts, the rewards will be discussed."
At this moment, he has no evidence at all, and he can't prove it only by the memory of his previous life. What's more, when he and Lou Yue met, they immediately contacted each other, which caused the other party to be suspicious.
Thinking of this, he smiled and nodded to Lou Yue, then looked behind him.
The army was moving slowly, and it was Lou Yue who had come first because he was anxious.
At this time, the army marched to the edge of Lin'an in a mighty force. Lou Yue had 50,000 soldiers under his command. Although they were not too many, it seemed that they still had a sense of grandeur.
At this moment, a white horse came lightly in their direction.
The people on the horse did not walk in the team, but rode the horse all the way to raise the dust, like a knight who was watching. But the man was clearly wearing armor, and it was faintly visible when he walked closer. This man was slender and slim, like a woman.
... woman
Jiang Suizhou's fingers moved slightly, and his eyebrows couldn't help but curled up by two points.
If you talk about the women in this army... there will be no others.
At this moment, Jiang Suizhou heard Lou Yue's smile on his side.
"The prince laughed, this is the last little girl, whose name is Wanjun." He said.
Jiang Suizhou sighed softly in his heart.
It really was her.
But somehow, the sigh he sighed didn't relax him a bit, but instead grabbed his chest. There was an inexplicable dullness and discomfort that made his breathing a little dull.
Xu was because... Hearing that name, he immediately remembered that Huo Wujiu who always appeared with her in history books.
For Huo Wujiu, he is the evidence that the later master humiliated him and the stain in his life that cannot be ignored, but Lou Wanjun... is a rare romantic and heart-stirring goddess couple in historical records.
Jiang Suizhou's eyes couldn't help but fall on Lou Wanjun.
To be fair, the girl is really beautiful. She should be born to follow her mother, not like Lou Yue, who is five big and three thick, on the contrary, she is handsome and heroic, with a bit of feminine sophistication.
Xu Shi was not raised in a boudoir, and her skin was not white, it was a light wheat color tanned under the sun. This actually made her beauty show healthy spirituality and a little more tenacity.
Especially in her body, there is a kind of wanton and unrestrainedness cultivated on the battlefield. This kind of demeanor is actually two different from Huo Wujiu, and it must be extremely eye-catching for these two people to stand in the same place.
Jiang Suizhou looked away strenuously.
… what happened to him.
Originally, his current mind was wishful thinking, he knew it. Huo Wujiu has his own life trajectory, and he will also meet people he should have met, and he is just an ordinary person who inexplicably travels from the future and hopes to cling to him to survive in troubled times.
But now, the person Huo Wujiao should have met is coming, but he can't be happy.
Jiang Suizhou knew he shouldn't think so, but he couldn't help feeling uncomfortable.
He had never experienced this kind of discomfort. He felt extremely tormented, but he didn't know who he was fighting with, and he just didn't want to retreat.
After a while, he smiled and reluctantly said: "Sure enough, the tiger father has no dogs, and General Lou's daughter is also a rare female hero."
Lou Yue was careless and didn't feel that something was wrong with him. He waved his hand and said with a hiatus, and said, "What female hero? It's all because the Madam General went early and was raised in the barracks. Now he is watching Seventeen Eighty Eight. But I can’t even tell anyone! At the end of the trip back to Beijing, I was thinking about detaining this girl in Lin'an and learning something about female embroidery, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, she looks like a girl anyway."
As he said, he smiled, and said: "Please also ask the prince to help pay attention. Prince princes and young talents in Beijing, if there are unmarried, I am not too picky..."
Jiang Suizhou smiled reluctantly.
He wanted to tell Lou Yue that there is no need to worry, that fate is here, and that there is no need for others to match up. But he opened his mouth, but couldn't make a sound. On the contrary, Meng Qianshan next to him saw something was wrong and hurriedly stepped forward to support him.
"The prince?"
Jiang Suizhou lowered his head and smiled, letting Meng Qianshan support him, pushing the boat along the water and saying: "The king is not in good health, the general laughed."
Lou Yue waved his hands again and again: "It's okay, it's okay! It will take a while for the soldier to do so. If the prince is unwell, you can go to rest soon!"
Jiang Suizhou smiled and nodded, and Meng Qianshan helped him away.
While he admitted that he was wishful thinking, his mind became smaller, and he couldn't even meet that Miss Lou face to face.
He is really an uncountable magpie's nest owner.
On the other side, there was a clear sound of a horse neighing, and the woman in armor turned over and got off the horse, clapped her hands, and passed the reins to the guards next to her.
She walked to Lou Yue's side, and then wondered: "Huh? Father, how did the young man go?"
With that said, she also glanced in the direction of Jiang Suizhou's carriage.
"It looks pretty, why, looking unhappy, is it your father's enemy in Chaozhong?"
Lou Yue gritted her teeth, raised her hand and poked a finger on her forehead.
"What are you talking about! People just don't feel well, so I went back to rest!" As he said, he didn't forget to warn. "Don't you think about him? He has a broken sleeve."
Lou Wanjun smiled and said: "What are you thinking about, so you look good, so I can't praise it?"
"What are you boasting about, you don't look like a girl!" Lou Yue hated iron for not making steel. "You can speak carefully! The capital is no better than a barracks, so you can say what you want to say! What will happen to you in the future if you speak so improperly..."
"How to find a husband-in-law!" Lou Wanjun interrupted him and said what he was going to say later. "I know I know, my ears will have calluses."
Lou Yue stared with anger: "Don't take Dad's words as a joke!"
Lou Wanjun sneered, raised her hand to pat his shoulders casually, and said perfunctorily.
"I know, I didn't treat you as a joke." She sluggishly, with a disapproving smile, and the tail sound floated upwards, like a geese flying across the desert sky.
"Okay, hurry up, don't let that delicate and weak young man wait for a long time."
