Li Zhiyun has not gone to the Imperial College for a long time. He formally proposed to his father that he would no longer go to school. The reason was that he was now a prince and no longer suitable to sit in the school with the students and listen to classes.

When he mentioned it, my father remembered it and said, "It's okay not to go to Guozi to study. However, several of your brothers are leading troops in the front to fight. You don't want to just sit back and enjoy your success in Chang'an City. Go to the front."

.”

When Li Zhiyun heard this, he regretted that he shouldn't have mentioned this matter. But then he thought about it, he might as well go to the front line, he could accumulate some military merits, so as to avoid others saying that he was a freeloader prince. So, he asked: "Abba, what about

Where are you sending me?"

"Go to your fourth brother's place and become the deputy general manager in Bingzhou."

The fourth brother is the general manager of Bingzhou. This official may not sound like a good one, but in fact he has great power. After Abba ascended the throne, he changed the Sui Dynasty's counties into prefectures, and Bingzhou was the former Taiyuan County. The Tang Dynasty was in remote or important areas

There is a General Administrative Office, which governs the military affairs of several states, similar to the Governor-General's Office in the Qing Dynasty. The Bingzhou General Administrative Office governs the military affairs of ten states in the Hedong region, and the army under its command has 50,000 or 60,000 troops.

When my mother heard that Li Zhiyun was going to Jinyang, she was a little worried. However, when the Tang Dynasty was founded, several of his brothers were leading troops to fight, so her son couldn't always stay with her, right? Fortunately, Jinyang has a big brother

There should be no problem with the safety of Tang's tens of thousands of troops. Therefore, it was inconvenient for her to object.

Li Zhiyun is not afraid of going to the front line. The only thing he worries about is his "great cause". However, he has laid a good foundation and told Wei Xiaobao all his intentions and plans. Wei Xiaobao only needs to follow the road map he set.

Just push forward. Besides, after arriving in Jinyang, he can also control remotely through correspondence.

Going to Jinyang, the guards along the way are a problem. There are too few guards in the Chu Palace, and half of them have to be left to guard the palace. He can only use more than a hundred people. If he encounters hundreds of thieves on the way, then he will

What a tragedy! He doesn’t have the ability of his second brother.

He went to ask his father for troops. His father said: "When you arrive in Bingzhou, the troops there will be under your command. I don't have any extra men for you now."

Helpless, he had no choice but to find the third sister. The "Women's Army" was resting outside Chang'an City. He found the third sister and said that he was going to Jinyang to take up his post, and hoped to borrow a thousand soldiers and horses as escorts. The third sister said: "The road from Chang'an to Jinyang

It’s far away and there’s no peace along the way. I’ll give you two thousand troops.

Okay. In addition, take Aunt Ying with you. This girl has been with me since she was a child and is very considerate. With her taking care of you, I can rest assured." When leaving, the third sister warned again: "Protect yourself outside.

When it's time to fight, be smart and if you can't win, run away quickly, don't fight hard!"

Li Zhiyun's chest puffed up and he said: "Sister, don't worry! When did I lose the battle and I wasn't the fastest?" After hearing this, the third sister smiled and said: "This sister believes..."

Since the third sister lent him two thousand troops, there was no need to bring the guards of the Chu Palace. They all stayed behind. After all, Wei Xiaobao also needed manpower here. He only brought two subordinate officials from the palace: Sima Zhang Zheng and Cai Cai who wanted to join the army.

Tiger.

Early that morning, Li Zhiyun, Zhang Zheng, and Cai Hu set out. Two subordinate officials, dressed in brocade robes and carrying Luan knives at their waists, stepped off Qiji and followed Li Zhiyun out of Chang'an City. They saw beside the official road outside the city.

Two thousand soldiers and horses were already waiting there in an orderly queue. There was a man sitting on a horse in front of the queue, it was Scarface. Yinggu also got off the carriage and waved to him excitedly.

Li Zhiyun drove his horse up to him and said happily: "Wang Baoqiang, is it you?" Scarface cupped his hands and said: "His Royal Highness, the King of Chu, by order of Princess Pingyang, will lead two thousand soldiers and horses to escort you to Jinyang."

Li Zhiyun nodded and said, "Thank you, General Wang. Let's set off."

So, the large group of people set off. Along the way, they traveled through mountains and rivers and stayed overnight at dawn.

At dusk that day, the team was walking in a mountain forest, with lush trees on both sides. The cool mountain breeze blew slowly, washing away the fatigue and fatigue of the journey. At this time, the scouts sent out drove their horses back to report: Xihe City is ahead.

Li Zhiyun turned to the scar face beside him and said: "Order the team to speed up and arrive at Xihe City. Let the brothers have a good rest for a day..." As he was talking, he suddenly heard the sound of swords clashing in front of him. Li Zhiyun Dingqing said.

Look, I saw four in front of me

Five men were chasing a woman with swords. The woman fought and ran. However, she seemed to have been injured on her leg and did not run fast. When she reached an open space in front of her, she was finally caught up by the group of men.

. They surrounded the women in the middle.

The woman wore a tight-fitting robe and held a sharp sword in her hand. The injury on her leg seemed to be quite serious. She finally couldn't support it anymore and knelt on one knee, but she still stubbornly resisted the opponent's attack with the sword in her hand.

And those men were uniformly dressed, as if they were the nursing home of a wealthy family.

Li Zhiyun frowned and said loudly: "A few grown men are bullying a weak woman. Why are you still standing there?" Upon hearing this, Scarface and Zhang Zheng and Cai Hu, who were standing beside him, immediately pulled out their respective sabers and jumped.

He dismounted and rushed forward.

Scarface used his knife to block a sword strike from one of the guards, and kicked him to the ground. Zhang Zheng and Cai Hu also knocked down one of them each. Seeing that the woman had help, the guards climbed up from the ground.

After getting up, he ran away in a hurry.

Li Zhiyun also dismounted and walked towards the woman. However, before he could reach him, the sword in the woman's hand was pressed against his chest, and she said sternly: "Stop! Don't come over!" Scar on the side

His face became unhappy at the sight, and he said loudly: "Hey, girl, we just rescued you! Why are you so lazy and ignorant?"

Li Zhiyun smiled and said pleasantly: "I just want to check the wound on your leg." The woman was pretty, but nervous, and her big eyes were wide-eyed. She seemed not to have heard Li Zhiyun's words and kept talking.

Said: "Don't come over! Don't come over!..." She was obviously a little exhausted, and she couldn't hold the sword in her hand steadily, shaking constantly.

Li Zhiyun thought for a while, turned to Aunt Ying who had just got off the carriage and said, "Go and get a roll of bandages." Aunt Ying immediately returned to the carriage, took a roll of bandages and handed it to him. Li Zhiyun threw the bandage next to the woman.

, said: "The wound on your leg is still bleeding, tie it up quickly, otherwise you will lose blood." The woman glanced at the bandage on the ground and pointed with her sword: "You, all of you, stand back!"

Li Zhiyun waved everyone back. When they retreated ten feet away, the woman felt relieved. She picked up the bandage with her other hand, then sat on the ground, put the sword aside, and began to tie the wound. She was vigilant while tying it.

He stared at them carefully, fearing that the other party would rush over when he was not paying attention.

After the woman tied the wound, she immediately picked up the sword, struggled to stand up, cupped her hands to Li Zhiyun and said, "Thank you!" After saying that, she turned around, limped away, and disappeared into the forest after a while.

.

Seeing the woman walking away, Li Zhiyun turned to Scarface and said, "Do you think she can be a heroine?" Scarface curled his lips and said, "Just martial arts? A heroine!" Li Zhiyun

Said to himself: "I think it should be. It's amazing for a woman to be able to resist four or five men..."

The team continued to move forward and walked another mile or two to the foot of Xihe City. Xihe City is the seat of the state government of Haozhou. Li Zhiyun asked the team to stay outside the city. He took Scarface and Zhang Zheng and Cai Hu into the city and came to

Governor's Yamen.

After the guard went in to report, not long after, two officials came out. One of them, an official in his forties, smiled and cupped his hands and said: "His Royal Highness the King of Chu has come a long way. I am sorry that I missed you. I hope you will forgive me."

"Li Zhiyun quickly returned the gift and said: "Who are you two adults?..."

"I am Liu Fan, the governor of Haozhou, and this is Sima Huangqi."

"Thank you, my lords."

Liu Fan invited Li Zhiyun and his entourage into the lobby. After the guests and hosts sat down, the servants served tea. Liu Zhan said: "The official has received a decree from the court, saying that His Royal Highness the King of Chu is going to Jinyang for his appointment, and ordered all the states and counties along the way.

Be a good receptionist.”

Li Zhiyun smiled and said: "Master Liu, I am accompanying the king with two thousand troops. They are still outside the city. I hope you can arrange them." When Liu Fan heard this, he turned to Huang Qi and said: "Huang Sima, hurry up and bring the troops into the city.

, placed in the military camp, so I can take good care of you!" Huang Qi quickly stood up, bowed his hands and said he obeyed the order, turned around and walked out.

Li Zhiyun chatted with Liu Gan for a while, then stood up to say goodbye and left the Governor's Mansion. They found an inn where Li Zhiyun, Ying Gu, Zhang Zheng and Cai Hu stayed at the inn. Scarface mobilized a group of soldiers to move the inn
