He only prayed in his heart, the imperial court has received his documents from the imperial court, it is best to reduce the etiquette rules and drive away the gentry and common people, although it would be rude, but at any rate, during the first meeting between Tiansheng and Xiliang , so as not to lose face too much.
He was worried here, and she had already noticed Feng Zhiwei's eyes. In private, she quietly told the two deputy envoys, "Slow down, pay attention to observation, and be careful of the other party's tricks after entering the capital."
Deputy envoy Wang Tang was stunned: "Playing tricks? Why?"
"Commander Qiu lost more than half of his army in defeating Tengshan, and even lost his horses. It must have been reported to the Xiliang court." Feng Zhiwei said leisurely. The two times seem to be friendly, but in fact they are all striving together, and they must fight quietly in everything, and wait for the grand ceremony of Yingtian Sheng, if the thousand people suddenly shrink to dozens of people, what will happen That embarrassing look, where do you want the face of the Xiliang court to go in front of the people?"
The two deputy envoys were stunned, and while arranging people to pay attention, they also had doubts: "No, Bai Shilang must have already reported the defeat of Commander Qiu to Tengshan. If the regent is smart enough, he should reduce the etiquette rules. Arrange for the people to watch the ceremony, won’t it be all right?”
Feng Zhi smiled and said nothing, thinking to himself, let you Xiliang play tricks on me, and don't allow me to stab me back? Bai Shilang sent a letter through the post station, but it was a pity that it was stolen by our people before it was sent far. What the regent received was just a report of "everything as usual".
Of course, when she got to such a close suburb of Beijing, she couldn't hide it anymore. With such a short distance and such a short time, she would like to see if the regent's resilience and ability can really play some tricks. A trick to try to save the first round that Xiliang lost.
Tapping the horsewhip lightly, the corners of her lips smiled faintly, with a hint of anticipation. Commander Qiu looked at it from a distance, and she shivered...
According to the etiquette regulations, the Minister of Rites will bring all the officials below the third grade in Beijing to greet them at the Longjiang Station, which is six miles away from the capital. Now it is only two miles away from the Longjiang Station.
The long team of envoys meanders along the loess official road.
"There is an official team here..."
"Help..."
"Give me a way to survive, sir..."
"Wow..."
A sudden commotion erupted, with male and female voices, old people's and children's voices, and then a group of men, women and children in ragged clothes rushed out of the woods beside the road. They got off their horses, grabbed the saddle of the horses and did not let go, begging one after another, "Master... We are starving to death... Please give me something to eat..." There was also a woman hugging the wheels of the carriage and weeping for a while. The children were crying and the adults were yelling at the people running around in the line, making it a mess.
Feng Zhiwei ordered the two deputy envoys to wait vigilantly and nervously for the "enemy" to be stunned. They thought it would be robbers or something, but they turned out to be a group of hungry people. The guards were also stunned. They had already drawn their knives. Prepare for battle, how can this knife cut off the heads of those sallow and emaciated women and dolls? Looking at those dirty hands with blue veins, the guards also showed a look of unbearable.
Once they couldn't bear it, the refugees who were brave enough to die for a morsel of food immediately took an inch. Someone shouted, "There is dry food in the leather bag!" With a swipe, the leather bags hanging by the saddles of the guards were snatched away, and someone shouted: "These bridles are made of cowhide, they can be eaten!" Immediately, countless people tried to pull the saddle off, biting with their teeth if they couldn't pull it off, and some people took out blunt knives to cut, and more people climbed up. The carts at the back of the convoy were rummaging for food, and clothes were constantly being thrown out indiscriminately. People kept laughing and dancing with food in their hands.
Looking at the chaos, Bai Deshan was stunned. He thought that the regent would try to give Tiansheng envoys a blow, but he didn't expect it to be this way.
Among the mighty team, only Feng Zhiwei showed a faint smile, with a bit of ridicule and a bit of admiration.
What kind of refugees can intercept the team so cleverly
What kind of refugees can appear in the outskirts of the capital without restraint like this? Or is it when a foreign country comes to put the city under martial law
Are there any refugees who know who they want to eat when they come here, and they only look for people from Tiansheng, not Xiliang officials
The refugees were real, but they were organized and motivated. If she guessed correctly, there should be people from the local government in the woods on both sides.
The Prince Regent of Xiliang is indeed a formidable character.
It was obvious that he had received the news, and it was too late and inappropriate to do anything else at this time. He reacted quickly, and actually drove the refugees here!
You can't be beaten or scolded, you can only let others rob you into a mess, and then, immediately, the officials who "get the news" will lead troops to "relieve" the team of Tiansheng envoys, and then, the Xiliang people's attention The power will be transferred to the disconcerted team of Tiansheng envoys, and the missing guards in Xiliang will naturally be ignored.
Good idea, good abacus.
She sneered, and waved her fingers at an unnoticed angle.
There are a few figures, silently flickering towards the surrounding woods.
"boom."
Suddenly there was a muffled sound, and a figure flashed in a stalled carriage, and then a small figure flew up into the air. The person was in mid-air, still holding onto half a piece of pine flower cake.
The little figure landed on the ground, rolled quickly, and disappeared into the crowd. It seemed that he was not injured.
With a swish, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, revealing Gu Zhixiao's angry face, with half a piece of pine flower cake in his hand, screaming in a shrill voice: "Bastard! Steal my cake, go to hell!"
It's fine if she doesn't scold, but after she scolded, the refugees were stunned, and then they remembered the child who was kicked out just now, and they couldn't find where the child was. A woman by the side of the car scratched Gu Zhixiao's face with an "oh".
Gu Zhixiao lowered the curtain with a slap, quickly retracted his face, and shouted: "Father! Come on!"
The curtain closed and lifted, a snow-white hand shook, and the woman was thrown out in the air again.
