827, sit in the house and wait for the oral order
After breakfast, the two groups of people separated outside the city.
The escorting emperor was Wu Fei and Hou Yuntian.
It was Luo Xiong and Hou Yunfei who broke into the Zhao family army at the beginning. Among them, Luo Xiong was appreciated by Zhang Mowu, and accompanied him to obtain first-hand information inside the Zhao family army, while Hou Yunfei was lurking in the army, looking for news about the low-level soldiers in the army.
Now that he was assigned other tasks, Hou Yunfei simply took the opportunity to leave his military membership and became a free agent. Together with Wu Fei, who was in charge of intercepting and searching letters, he escorted the emperor.
The emperor was also a good horseman and shooter, after saying goodbye, the three of them quickly disappeared at the end of the official road, leaving only Gu Qianxue and Chuyan behind.
Looking at the backs of the three of them, Qianxue sighed, her expression confused.
Chu Yandao, "Princess, are you embarrassed because you have to face King Li?"
Qianxue nodded honestly, "Will you be angry when I am like this?"
Chu Yan was surprised, "Why are the servants angry?"
Gu Qianxue turned her head and shrugged, "It's nothing, let's go too, you lead the way."
"Okay." Chu Yan knew the way.
Immediately afterwards, the two of them also rushed to the other end of the disappearance.
Guandong City is the easternmost of Nanyue Kingdom, and as the prince's fiefdom, it will not be at the border.
King Li's fief is in the hinterland of Nanyue Kingdom, not far from the capital, even if Gu Qianxue is not good at riding, three days will be up.
Not to mention how hard it was for three days, this is completely different from the three-day travel in modern times.
"How are you, princess? How about we take a rest?" Chu Yan worriedly glanced sideways at the pale Gu Qianxue.
Gu Qianxue shook her head. Fortunately, the horse could follow Chuyan's horse by herself, and she couldn't even see the direction, "It doesn't matter, how far is it?"
As soon as Chu Yan raised her head, she was pleasantly surprised, "It's here! Princess, look quickly, we have seen the city wall!"
Qian Xue also hurriedly raised her head, feeling mixed feelings.
The good news is that I really saw the city.
What is worrying is that I only see such a black shadow. As the saying goes, Wangshan runs to death, but I don't know if it will take an hour or two to chase this black shadow.
Chu Yan was still worried, "Princess, why don't we take a break, and I will see that you really can't hold on anymore."
Gu Qianxue nodded, "Okay."
After the two stopped their horses, they turned over and dismounted. As soon as Gu Qianxue dismounted, she ran to the side and vomited violently.
Under the governance of capable officials carefully selected by King Li, Pinglin City is stable and prosperous, and its faction is thriving.
The streets in the city are clean and tidy, the roads are orderly, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. From time to time, majestic government servants are seen patrolling, and the security is excellent.
The royal mansion in the city is magnificent and luxurious, and it is the mansion of his king Li Wang.
At this time, King Li's study room was overcrowded.
Because the prince avoided seeing guests and refused to deal with official business for more than half a month before, so many official tasks have been piled up until now. Now that the matter at hand has been settled, who knows the day when the prince will not deal with official duties again
Everyone dared to be angry and dare not speak out, but they had to keep smiling faces. Who made their immediate boss the scariest person in the entire Nanyue Kingdom.
Of course, what is said to be terrifying is his killing methods and rumors from the outside world. As his subordinates, everyone has no fear of King Li, only respect.
Seeing that the order was in chaos again, Jun An hurriedly shouted, "Line up, line up, line up!"
A group of people, old or young, dressed in military uniforms or civilian robes, hurriedly and stupidly lined up.
But after a while, the team was disrupted again, and a group of people squeezed in again.
There is no way, according to this processing speed, even if it takes a few days to process, it will not be finished. However, it is my own mistake that the work is on hand, and everyone can't feel at ease.
Jun An thought about it, and came up with a ghostly idea, he raised his voice, "Everyone is in a hurry, the line is so long, the prince is tired and you are tired too, the rest of you should go home and rest first, the prince does not only deal with official business today, Deal with it every day.”
Don't care when the prince is still willful, let's fool the officials first.
In fact, is it true that King Li willfully closes the door and sees no visitors? Only Jun An and Eunuch Shao knew that the prince had gone out, secretly.
The prince's secret was not told to them, so they didn't hear or ask.
They all know that the prince has secrets. If the prince didn't have these "secrets", he would have been swallowed alive by those people in the capital long ago!
Jun'an's words comforted everyone. However, the officials hadn't thought about whether to go or stay, so they heard a faint voice from the study, "I have to arrange for these two days. After two days, my king will go on a trip."
Wow!
Suddenly the crowd erupted.
Who cares whether to line up or not, they are all holding official documents and squeezing in desperately.
"..." Jun An on the side cried out in agony.
Eunuch Shao smiled and held the freshly cooked ginseng soup, intending to replenish the body of the prince who had just returned from a trip, but when he saw the study room that was tightly surrounded, he was instantly dumbfounded.
Jun An immediately stepped forward, "Grandpa Shao, you mustn't squeeze with them, don't let this group of old men with no strength in their hands be strong."
Eunuch Shao looked at the officials who were so crowded that their necks were thick and blushing, and he also shrank his neck, "Our family doesn't squeeze with them, it stinks." After a pause, he said, "Jun'an, you can't care Anyway, what should we do if our lord is exhausted?"
Jun An's face was broken, "I don't care? How do I care? The prince said that he will travel in a few days."
"..."
Eunuch Shao, who was holding the ginseng soup, sighed, "Hey, my lord is troubled by love, so it's good to go out and relax."
But at this moment, a faint voice came from the study again. "This king is about to receive the emperor's oral order, and it's not a trip to relax."
The sound is not loud, but because it is mixed with a little internal force, outsiders can hear it clearly.
Eunuch Shao immediately turned pale, "How did the prince hear that?"
Jun An also frowned and shook his head. He put his index finger on his mouth and made a silent gesture.
However, Jun An and Eunuch Shao were puzzled, would the prince receive the emperor's oral order? Isn't it the emperor's handwriting that the prince left Beijing to the fiefdom? Does the emperor have other arrangements
The two were suspicious in their hearts, but they dared not speak again.
In this way, King Li had been busy for a whole day, even at noon, he casually ate a few bites of snacks.
In the afternoon, King Li didn't wait for the emperor to give an oral order, but he unexpectedly waited for someone.
In the courtyard where the study is located.
Looking at the officials who looked like women in the vegetable market crowded to buy cheap goods, Eunuch Shao and Jun An were extremely calm. They sat down on a stone bench under the shade of a tree, made a pot of tea, and chatted while drinking tea.
Eunuch Shao sighed, "Hey, it's crowded like this, how can our family go in and serve... These people are real."
Even the lunch snacks are handed in through the window.
But suddenly, a guard quickly entered the courtyard, glanced at the crowded study room, and then walked towards Eunuch Shao, "Eunuch Shao, there is someone outside the palace begging to see you."
828, Gong Lingyan, do you want to resist the order
