Outside the north gate of the capital, a group of people gradually approached.
There are cavalry, porters, and pawns. About three or four hundred people, the first horse, immediately planted a flag with the word "Yan" written on it.
In the middle of the line was a plainly decorated car. The people in the car raised the curtains and looked at the north gate of the capital. Seeing the tower of the north gate soaring into the sky, he was overjoyed and couldn't help but say, "We're here, we're here!"
The wind from the northern grasslands had blown his fair face hard and reddened, and the protruding bead of his face was flushed red, as if Indonesia had been pressed on it.
A pawn next to him, named Zhou Chao, also smiled and said by the curtain: "My lord, we have been going to the north for almost a year, and we are finally back!"
Sitting in the car was Yan Wang Yan Shijie.
Yan Shijie was old and not used to the dry and cold weather in the north, so he asked Yan Li to return to the capital. Yan Li didn't make things difficult for him and allowed him to return to the capital.
Zhou Chao said again: "I don't know if the emperor will wait for us at the north gate, set up a banquet for us, and wash away the dust?"
Yan Shijie said: "I didn't tell the emperor the date of return, so don't count on the banquet and hot wine."
It's so cold now, it's really comforting to have a cup of hot wine to drink.
A master and a servant were talking, and they came to the north gate. The guards at the gate knew that it was King Yan who had returned, so they immediately let him go, and sent someone to the palace to inform Yan Li.
In the grasslands in the north, what he ate was half-cooked beef and mutton, and what he drank was cheese. Yan Li especially missed the warm shredded pork noodles in the capital and the pastries in the south of the Yangtze River.
When the convoy entered the north gate, they saw a high-hanging Wangzi in front of it, with the word "face" written on it. Yan Shijie became happy again, and said to Zhou Chao: "How about we go to the noodle shop and have a bowl of noodles first?"
Zhou Chao walked in the snow for a day, cold and hungry, if there is a steaming bowl of noodles to eat, that would be great.
"My lord, let's eat a bowl of noodles before leaving."
Yan Shijie got out of the car, followed Zhou Chao, and brought two guards into the noodle shop. The others also got off their horses, those who sat down, and took out dry food to eat.
Seeing Yan Shijie with two eight-foot guards, the owner of the noodle shop hurried over to greet him.
"Guanjia, what do you want to eat?"
Yan Shijie patted the snow on his body, and sat at a table: "Just four bowls of noodles, and put more spicy peppers and soup. We have been driving for a day, if there is soup with spicy peppers in our stomachs, then Great!"
"Okay, I'll do it for you!" The boss happily agreed to go.
Yan Li pointed at Zhou Chao and the two guards: "Don't stand still, sit down and have noodles with me."
Zhou Chao scratched the back of his head, feeling a little embarrassed: "You are the king, and I am your servant, there is no difference between superiority and inferiority, how can I sit with you! Let's go to the side and stand to eat."
Yan Shijie tightened his face and raised his sword eyebrows: "This king told you to sit down, so you sit down! I treat you like family members, why do you have to distinguish so clearly! Now that you are not in the government office, don't have so many rules."
So Zhou Chao and the two guards had to sit next to Yan Shijie. After a while, the boss brought four bowls of noodles and placed them on the table, steaming hot and very attractive. Yan Shijie called out:
"Everyone eat!"
Then he pulled the noodles and ate them with a rustle, without the airs and majesty of King Yan at all. Yan Shijie is an elegant and open-minded person, he never cares about these red tapes, and the people around him are like a spring breeze, without any pressure.
The owner of the noodle shop wondered, Yan Shijie looked like a nobleman, and the servants called him the king, but he didn't know what kind of king he was? Now that he is a king, why is he still looking like a villager, eating noodles rustling, as if he hasn't eaten for a few days. I found it interesting, so I waited on the side:
"Dare to ask the official, do you want more wine?"
As soon as wine was mentioned, Yan Shijie's eyes lit up, as if it was freezing cold today, after drinking a cup of hot wine, his whole body became alive.
"Then heat me a pot of wine!"
The boss boiled another pot of wine for Yan Shijie.
The boss's busy schedule made the two people in the pavilion suspicious.
"Boss, come in!"
The boss suddenly heard someone shouting in the attic, so he opened the green cloth curtain, walked into the attic, nodded and bowed, and smiled:
"You two distinguished guests, if you need anything, just say it."
Li Hao took a sip of his wine, his eyes were sharp: "Who is coming outside, such a big show?"
The owner of the noodle shop: "I don't know, there are three or four hundred people! It looks like they should be officials." The owner came closer and whispered, "The servants all call that master the king. I think, our Great Jing King, Grandpa Yan, How can there be a brother who is king outside? And he doesn't have the majesty of a prince!"
As soon as Zi Yan heard the people outside called "King", she pushed Fan Yang's felt hat down.
"You see the convoy outside, is there any sign?"
The boss said: "Yes! There is a big flag with the character 'Yan' burned on it, which is the national surname Yan of our Dajing Kingdom."
The corners of Ziyan's mouth showed pride: "I know who it is!"
Li Hao asked, "Who is it?"
"Isn't it the Emperor Yan Shijie who came back from Jiangnan! Why did he come back? Strange!"
Li Hao waved: "Boss, get out!"
"Okay, if you have any orders, remember to call me!" The boss withdrew.
Zi Yan: "Yan Shijie is here, I have to be careful not to let him see it. Otherwise, let him know that I am with you, it will be terrible."
Li Hao took another sip of his wine, his eyes showing a cold light: "Yan Shijie has become the king of Yan, and the cavalry in Yandi has 100,000 armored soldiers. If I have the help of these 100,000 cavalry, why not worry about the country not being mine!"
Zi Yan snorted: "Don't dream! Such an important position, Yan Li must let his heart do it, how could it be used by you?"
Li Hao licked his teeth: "Do you know Yan Shijie? How is he?"
Ziyan suddenly looked at Li Hao: "What do you mean? You want to drive a wedge between Yan Shijie and Yan Li's uncle and nephew? I'm afraid it's unrealistic?"
"It's not alienation, I want to find out Yan Shijie's weakness, remove Yan Shijie, and replace him with one of ours to be King Yan."
Zi Yan pondered for a while, then smiled slightly: "This matter is on me."
"Oh?" Li Hao's eyes sparkled, "Have you thought of Yan Shijie's weakness?"
"No, but I thought of Yan Li's weakness."
Li Hao: "Yan Li's weakness? What should I say?"
Zi Yan curled her lips, pretending to be mysterious: "The heavenly secret must not be revealed, you just wait for my good news!"
Li Hao poured Ziyan a glass of wine: "If you can squeeze Yan Shijie out, I'll call you sister."
Zi Yan smiled seductively: "Then you will call me sister. I promised you to get rid of Rong Chang'an, and now it's almost done. You know, I never say anything without foundation."
Li Hao couldn't believe it: "You got rid of Rong Chang'an? I'm afraid it's an exaggeration? I haven't heard the news that Yan Li got rid of Rong Chang'an."
Zi Yan smiled complacently for a while.
"You're not in the palace, so naturally you don't know the current situation in the palace anymore. Now Yan Li has developed a suspicion of Rong Changan, and I'm beating the drums from the side. The day when Rong Changan is abolished is not far away!" Zi Zi Yan gritted her teeth, as if she had already seen the scene where Rong Changan was abolished.
Li Hao picked up his wine glass: "Once Rong Chang'an is deposed, and King Yan is ours, then the country of Dajing Kingdom is not mine, but someone else's!"
when!
The two wine glasses touched each other lightly.
