Lin Jinxiao looked down at the most dazzling and spacious carriage at the foot of the mountain with burning eyes, and asked dully.
"They've all been dispatched."
He Ying replied carefully: "The general has sent out ten sentries along the Donghua River and Rongjiang River according to His Highness's instructions, and asked the troops stationed along the way to take precautions."
"We must be more careful and safely escort the convoy to Langzhou before returning secretly."
Lin Jinxiao warned seriously: "Right now, there is a riot in Changning County, and the hearts of the southern counties are unstable. If the Dongsang people know that the princess and the princess are going north, they will go west along the Donghua River and Rongjiang River and take the opportunity to cause chaos. Commander Ji
The envoy left the cavalry in the palace. If there is a sudden attack by Dongsang people or grass bandits, this infantry force alone may not be able to cope with the enemy in a hurry."
"Please rest assured, your highness, I will protect the safety of the princess and your highness and the princesses to the death."
He Ying and Zhang Yu answered almost in unison.
"Well, after the car successfully enters the boundary of Langzhou, you must rush back to the state capital within ten days."
Lin Jinxiao's dark eyes suddenly flashed with a hint of cunning: "At that time, I will leave important matters to you two to handle."
"The last general takes orders."
He Ying and Zhang Yu looked at each other and probably guessed that His Highness might want them to go to Changning County to quell the rebellion.
Regarding Tang Ru's personal expedition this time, those who were most dissatisfied were the leading generals of the palace.
Although the Tang family's army was said to be brave and good at fighting, in their opinion, Tang Ru was just a dude in the capital and had no experience in facing the enemy at all.
We have to rely on veterans like them who have returned from the North to fight the war.
It's just that Tang Ru took the initiative to ask for help, so the two of them couldn't say much. Now they just hope that His Highness will really arrange for them to put down the rebellion in ten days.
Seeing that the team at the bottom of the mountain was about to pass Cangshan Mountain, He Ying raised his eyebrows and looked at Lin Jinxiao, suspiciously saying: "Your Highness, the princess's car is about to leave, won't Your Highness go see the princess off in person?"
This time, he had put a lot of thought into the arrival of the princess and the young princess in Beijing, and made very careful arrangements. Before leaving, he was still worried. Early in the morning, he secretly mobilized the palace guards to patrol various key locations to protect the convoy.
, but he didn’t want to go and see him off in person, which is puzzling.
Lin Jinxiao waved his hand reservedly: "No need."
"But I don't know when the princess will be able to come back after visiting Beijing this time."
He Ying curled his lips with a grimace: "Your Highness cannot leave Pingning Prefecture without authorization."
Hearing this, Lin Jinxiao could no longer remain calm and urged Zhang Yu, the commander of the army, in a hurry: "Hurry, Zhang Yu, go and stop the horses and horses."
Seeing that the long cavalry was about to disappear at the corner of the official road, Zhang Yu quickly mounted his horse and led a few cavalry down the mountain quickly.
Lin Jinxiao could only think of that pretty little face at this time, but he was worried about not letting his leg disease be exposed, so he had to use crutches to slowly sit back in the carriage, and then ordered the groom to speed up to catch up with the master's men.
Chu Nanzhi was sitting in the spacious carriage. Although she had comforted several babies, she had not seen the pretty boy since last night, and she still couldn't let go.
I cursed the pretty boy a thousand times in my heart, and when I was feeling relieved, the sound of horse hooves suddenly came from behind, accompanied by a high-pitched shout: "Commander Ji and the soldiers, please take a break for a while.
The princess sends you off."
"It's Dad."
The little ones couldn't help but cheered excitedly when they heard the sound. They lay down at the back of the carriage, opened the curtains and looked out.
"Speed up."
This pretty boy had come earlier and was late, but at this moment he pretended to catch up. Chu Nanzhi shouted with joy and anger to Ji Cen'an outside the carriage.
Ji Cen'an glanced at the chasing carriage behind him with an embarrassed look. He was really in a dilemma.
Lin Jinxiao and himself have a deep brotherhood, and he cannot disobey his brother's wishes.
She just thought about going to Beijing and letting her brother and brother-in-law compete against each other without conscience. Then she might cause a lot of unhappiness to her brother-in-law. At this time, she could only obey her more and feel better in her heart.
After all, the three thousand personal guards he led were all infantry. Even if he tried his best, he could not catch up with his brother's cavalry.
Thinking of this, he pretended to shout to everyone: "Listen to the princess and move forward at full speed."
Sang Qi was driving the lead carriage, totally confused about her master's thoughts.
Today, the master did not come to see me off, and the master was depressed all the way. Now that the master has arrived, the master wants to speed up.
She guessed that the master did not really want to abandon the master's carriage and deliberately tightened the reins of the horse, but was just shouting in vain to prevent the horse from running wildly.
As a result, the speed of the entire cavalry did not increase much.
There was quite a commotion, but after walking for a long time, Chu Nanzhi felt that Qingqi and Lin Jinxiao's carriage behind him were approaching, and Chu Nanzhi immediately realized that something was wrong.
Listening to Sankino's loud voice and the plaintive neighing of the horse, Chu Nanzhi angrily opened the curtain and glared at the little girl, watching her forcefully tugging on the horse's reins, her whole face turned red from holding back the horse.
The child was even strangled to the point of almost suffocating.
This made her very angry, and she asked in a coquettish voice: "Sang Qi, what are you doing?"
"Master, slave"
Sang Qi turned her head in confusion, not knowing how to explain.
Liu Yun and several little treasures looked at it blankly.
"Da Zhi, what are you doing?"
Liu Yun also asked back and immediately told Sang Qi to stop moving forward.
Chang Yanjue and Nie Huaian didn't know what the quarrel between the young couple was, but they couldn't let the two of them get into trouble at this time. They hurriedly poked their heads out of the carriage behind them and signaled to Ji Cen'an: "Let everyone
Rest where you are for a while.”
Nie Huaian added: "Cen An, please send more people to inquire around. Pingning Prefecture is not very peaceful at the moment. Be careful of thieves and bandits."
"yes."
Ji Cen'an followed the instructions of the two elders and asked the sergeants to stop advancing, and sent several groups of people to go ahead to check the road conditions.
Zhang Yu caught up and said happily to the carriage: "Princess, Your Highness has come to see you off. Please move on."
Chu Nanzhi buried his head and did not answer. The quadruplets did not dare to move rashly. Their clear and translucent little eyes looked at the carriage chasing behind them from time to time. They were surprised and timidly looked at their mother in the car.
"Lin Ruiwen."
Suddenly, a low and gentle voice came from outside the car. Dabaolin Ruiwen hesitated and looked at her mother, looking at a loss.
Looking at the expectant eyes, Chu Nanzhi nodded after a long time and said: "Go ahead."
When the little ones saw their mother relaxed, they jumped out of the carriage and shouted: "Abba, Abba."
Through the gap, he saw the tall and straight figure behind the carriage. The breeze blew on his face, and the way his clothes fluttered made Chu Nanzhi's hard heart soften again.
The separation was about to take place. At this time, how could she bear to quarrel with him again?
Liu Yun saw that her daughter was showing signs of loosening, so she gently held her hand and hurriedly ordered: "Go quickly, don't keep everyone waiting for too long."
Then he asked Shen Yunqing to help his daughter out of the carriage.
