Following the northeast direction from Andong, riding horseback for a day and a night, we arrived at the border of Xuanwu Road.

This place is not as desolate as Anton, with undulating wasteland and rugged valleys. When they approached, soldiers and horses sprung up like bamboo shoots after rain.

Spring bamboo shoots turn into bamboo in an instant, and green bamboo is like an arrow, blocking people from thousands of miles away.

Fortunately, they both have the same military flag behind them, and there is also a big flag with the character "Li" here.

Seeing the big flag with the character "Li", the green bamboo folded its edge and turned into green grass. After receiving the news, the local garrison leader rushed over to pay homage to the eldest lady.

Li Mingqi only wore a thin veil, but these soldiers did not dare to look directly at the eldest lady, and they had never seen Miss Li living in a high-rise building in a deep house.

Li Mingqi is not afraid of being recognized, it's not her who is afraid.

Jiannan Dao and the Xiang family are still the ones who know her identity so far. They haven't said it out yet, which means they don't dare and can't say it.

"Having learned that Taiyuan Mansion has been lost, the Governor has sent a message, asking us to wait for orders to respond to the eldest lady."

"I didn't expect that the eldest lady has already come."

They were respectful and concerned, but when Li Mingqi proposed to enter Xuanwu Dao, they refused.

"Miss, Master Han has an order." The local garrison general said, "In order to ensure the stability of the capital, no other guards are allowed to enter the territory of Xuanwu Road."

Li Mingqi smiled: "Master Han, then I can't enter too? Am I another guard?"

The general saluted hurriedly: "Of course you are not the eldest lady, but your Majesty agrees with Master Han's approach, and the governor also expressed his approval in front of your Majesty."

"Master Han supervises our Jiannan Road, and the decision he makes is of course Mingyu's decision." Li Mingqi smiled, looked forward again, and shook the riding whip in his hand, "Now I will take a look at this for Mingyu.

Determine how well the decision is executed.”

The general stood motionless in front of the horse: "Miss, the governor has ordered that even if he comes, he is not allowed to enter. The military order is like a mountain, and the general will not dare to disobey it."

Li Mingqi laughed: "Why did Mingyu come here?"

Seeing what the general wanted to say, she smiled again and waved her hand.

"Okay, you guys just keep this place safe, I'm going back first."

She turned the horse's head, and Nian'er also rushed to the front of the horse. The soldier helped her onto the horse, and then bowed to the soldiers and horses standing there.

The soldiers and horses who stood in solemn salutes and shouted loudly.

"Congratulations, young lady."

Li Mingqi did not look back as she rode her horse and galloped away. Her clothes and shawl were flying among the green grass and wild flowers, and she quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.

Soldiers and horses are scattered around, and there are scouts in front. There are no rebels here in Anton, and there is nothing to fear from the bandits and bandits. Li Mingqi can walk in the wilderness as leisurely as in her own garden.

But her expression was not very happy.

Ever since she turned around at the border of Xuanwu Road, there was no smile on her face.

Nian'er was angry at the side: "Master Mingyu, why are you so stupid to listen to that Han Xu? Isn't the master in Jiannan Road? How come our soldiers and horses have become his? How dare you stop the eldest lady?"

Li Mingqi hummed and said nothing, twirling her horse whip not knowing what to think.

As the eldest girl of the eldest lady, Nian'er's vision was no longer what it was before, so she came up with an idea: "Miss, let's go in, can they still beat you, miss?"

Li Mingqi glanced at her: "Idiot, isn't this embarrassing Mingyu?"

Nian'er complimented: "The young lady is so kind to the young master."

"Isn't this nonsense? Without the young master, I will be dead." Li Mingqi rolled her eyes, "Of course I can break in, or I can be beaten by them, but the premise is that Mingyu needs me to do this."

Nian'er didn't ask for further explanation and just nodded.

Li Mingqi told herself: "My father has no official status. It doesn't matter if Han Xu doesn't come to Jiannan Road. Now there is Han Xu. That Han Xu is Cui Zheng's favorite. His Majesty favors Cui Zheng, so naturally he also favors Han Xu. Mingyu now

By His Majesty's side, I am still a child after all, and I can't compare to Han Xu."

She pouted.

"It just happened that Han Xu was so lucky that he gave his troops and horses to Mrs. Chu. Mrs. Chu actually captured the capital. With such great achievements, who can touch him?"

She looked back in the direction of Xuanwu Road.

Forget it, it seems that she has no chance to take Xuanwu Road as her own. She also thought that when she went to Huainan Road, she would pass by Xuanwu Road. Since there are soldiers and horses from Jiannan Road here, it is naturally the territory of Jiannan Road.

That is naturally hers...

But it doesn't matter. Although she can't enter Xuanwu Road, the soldiers and horses belong to Jiannan Road, which is next to Huainan Road. In the eyes of everyone, they will be her soldiers and horses.

Li Mingqi held the horsewhip in her hand and held a flower in it, her lips filled with a smile again.

At that time, she will be the one with the most soldiers and horses in Huainan Road. No matter in the eyes of her husband Xiang Nan or the officials and people of Huainan Road, they will all look up to her.

What is there in Qia City?

"Oh, where is Qi Acheng?" Li Mingqi asked Nian'er, "We didn't see her when we came out."

Nian'er asked the soldiers behind him. After a few questions, the soldiers asked for the news: "Miss Qi has gone to Henan Road."

Li Mingqi frowned: "What does she want to do? Why go to Henan Road?"

Want soldiers and horses from Henan Province? Henan Province is not a fool.

Qi Acheng is not a fool either...

Does that mean we want to have good relations with Henan Province?

Even if she makes good friends, Henan Dao will not let her drive her...

.....

.....

"We wish the general was away."

A group of soldiers and horses stood in front of the valley, blocking the group of soldiers and horses on the opposite side, especially the woman leading them.

"Miss Qi, please come back."

Qi Acheng frowned: "Where is General Zhu? I have something important to discuss, please let me wait at my house."

But the opponent's soldiers and horses immediately prepared themselves and even drew their swords.

"This area is our Henan Road, and no idlers are allowed to enter." The leading general shouted.

Qi Acheng stopped the soldiers behind him who also drew their swords, and pointed to the flying Southeast Road and Qi flags behind him: "We are not just idle people, we are the guards of the Southeast Road."

Of course, the soldiers and horses of Henan Province knew who they were. They had become the masters here after Xiang Nan left. However, An Qingzhong led his troops to attack Linzhou, and Ande Zhong's troops and horses supported them. The number of troops passing by was large and frequent.

In order to avoid trouble, General Zhu who was stationed here returned to Henan Province with his soldiers and horses. After hearing that the capital was recovered, he asked his soldiers and horses to patrol here again.

The patrolling soldiers and horses found a group of people and horses pouring in, with soldiers and horses, and they were flying the flags of Xiang, Li, Qi, and the three parties. They were frightened to death, and they immediately retreated into the territory, preparing to wait for this group of gods to pass by before coming out...

..

Unexpectedly, a passing deity came to visit me.

"Guards, guards cannot enter other roads without orders." The general said, taking out the court decree.

The maid next to Qi Acheng couldn't help it: "What's the matter with you? Our eldest lady said that we have important matters to discuss. If you are afraid, is it okay for our eldest lady to go in alone without any troops?"

"

The general was not afraid of provoking the general and straightened his back: "Miss, I am alone. I am also from the Southeast Road. I am also a guard."

The maid stared: "You!"

Qi Acheng dismissed her and said to the general: "Then I will write a letter to Mr. Zhu. Is this okay?"

The general nodded, that's okay, and took the initiative to find pens, inks, paper and inkstones. Qi'acheng wrote a letter on a stone outside the valley and handed it to the general. Then under the general's watchful gaze, Qi'acheng

The city turned around and took the people away...

After walking for a long time, when I looked back, I could still see soldiers and horse scouts from Henan Road spying behind me.

The maid gritted her teeth angrily: "What's going on with the soldiers and horses in Henan Province? How about guarding against thieves? We are not rebels!"

Qi Acheng didn't care about a smile.

"Miss." The maid said, thinking, "Let's go in, can they really beat us? Even if they do, the master can come and ask us for the crime..."

Qi Acheng shook his head: "Of course I'm not afraid of being beaten, but it's useless to be beaten now."

She looked back at where Henan Road was.

"I want to help my father borrow the Henan Road. We can only make good friends, not enemies. In the past, it was nothing to make enemies, but now our Southeast Road just lost the battle in Linzhou, and Governor Xiang retreated behind closed doors to recuperate in front of the emperor.

I don’t have much confidence in what I say.”

"My lady is thoughtful," the maid said, looking behind her, "I wonder if they will agree."

Qi Acheng said: "I know that Henan Dao has always been timid and greedy for success, so I made it clear to them this time. I just used a way to let my father's soldiers and horses come over. When they attack Ankang Mountain, they will get half of the credit."

, who can not be moved by such a good thing?"

...

...

The small words Juanxiu disappeared into the brazier along with the flames and the letter paper, and General Zhu clapped his hands.
