The horses and deer antlers blocking half of the road under the city gate did not move away due to the rampage of the carriage. Instead, the soldiers who rushed through the gate raised their big guns on the antlers, pointed directly at the carriage, and shouted loudly.【】
"Damn it!"
The man on the handlebar is a big man in his late forties, with a green cloth headband and a beard. The strong and knotted muscles on his body seem to be about to burst his shirt. He shook his long whip and made a "pop" sound.
He whipped up a whip in mid-air and cursed angrily: "Have you blinded your eyes? Didn't you realize that this is the carriage of Prince Ning's Mansion?"
"Prince Ning's Mansion?"
Xia Xun couldn't help but become curious about the person in this carriage.
"What's going on in Prince Ning's Mansion? Currently, the Yan clan is in rebellion and the northern part of the Great Wall is in turmoil. In order to prevent spies from sneaking in, I have been ordered by the commander of the guards, Mr. Zhu, to strictly interrogate everyone who has passed the customs. Do you hear me clearly? It's everyone who is waiting!"
What came up was a small flag with a sword. Facing the carriage of Prince Ning, this man was fearless and arrogant. When Xia Xun saw it, he couldn't help but secretly praise him. This man really has the demeanor of a strong command, but he knows military law.
I don't know about the royal power, and I don't know what a great person the commander of the guards is, Master Zhu. He actually brought out such subordinates. He really has strict military discipline.
But the driver was so angry that he was so angry. The boy guarding the door was called Xu Jiang. In the past, whenever he saw the driver of Prince Ning's Mansion, he would have moved the barrier at the door, nodded and hunched over, eating the dust from the back of the car, and sent them into the city.
Now, it's great, he actually used all kinds of things to act as a character. He opened his eyes angrily, raised his whip and cursed: "You are a dog that relies on human power! I'll give you three points of honor, and even Prince Ning's Palace won't take it seriously."
Is it in?"
As he said that, the big whip was whistling towards Xu Xiaoqi. Xu Xiaoqi didn't expect that he would dare to make a move. He had no time to dodge and hurriedly rolled like a lazy donkey to avoid the whip. However, the movement was too difficult and attracted people aside.
The people roared with laughter.
Xu Jiang got up covered in dust and said angrily: "You bastard! You are just a carriage driver in Prince Ning's palace, but you dare to attack me! There are people coming, use your bow and gun. If they dare to take another step forward, we will kill them without mercy!"
"kill!"
Xu Xiaoqi gave the order, and the soldiers under his command shouted, and took a step forward with their spears. The soldiers behind also opened their bows and arrows with a creaking sound, and sharp wolf-tooth arrows that could penetrate heavy armor were aimed at the carriage and
Several knights guarding him.
Xia Xun was standing aside, with an intriguing smile on his face. He didn't expect to see such a scene as soon as he arrived at Daning City. It seemed that Prince Ning's current situation was not that good either.
"Who is going to be shot to death? Who is going to be shot to death?"
The clear and delicate voice was very pleasant, but it was vaguely filled with irrepressible anger, and then he opened the sedan curtain with one hand. As soon as Xia Xun saw the catkin coated with pink cardamom, his heart was shocked:
"It was indeed her, the woman I met on the hillside outside Liujiakou. Who is she from Prince Ning's Mansion?"
That spring onion jade finger is wearing a emerald green ring on the catkin like an orchid!
Then, a beautiful girl of seventeen or eighteen years old, wearing a green Sichuan brocade jacket and a green skirt, walked out with a jade face and a frosty face.
Xia Xun stood to the side, and saw her as white as gelatin, with a hint of coldness and anger on her beautiful dimples, which were as pure as snow. When Xu Xiaoqi saw the person being sent out by the car, his arrogance suddenly dropped by three points, and he hesitated for a moment.
, cupped his hands and said: "Xu Jiang, a humble official, has met your empress!"
"Empress?"
Xia Xun felt secretly in his heart: "Princess! Princess Ning? Then... what about brother Kui on the hillside of Liujiakou?"
I saw the beauty shouting coldly: "Move the antlers to resist the horse and make way!"
Xu Jiang hesitated for a moment and said: "I forgive you, I humbly accept the orders of Master Zhu, the commander of the guards, to check the passers-by. No one is allowed to enter without checking."
The beauty said sternly: "How brave, do you want to investigate me too?"
"this……"
"Of course we have to check!"
With a decisive answer, a military general who was over forty years old and had a thick black beard walked out of the city gate step by step. Xu Jiang and the surrounding soldiers all clasped their fists at him and saluted him: "See you there."
Pass the command, Sir!"
The beauty in the car smiled coldly and said: "Zhu Jian, you are just a guard commander, how dare you block my princess's way?"
Zhu Jian smiled faintly and replied: "Your Majesty, I only have eyes for the imperial court and the king's law. At present, the Yan clan in Beiping is rebelling, and the northwest and Liaodong are under strict vigilance under the orders of the imperial court. Your Majesty is from Prince Ning's house, and I recognize him."
My Majesty, there is no need to search, but... if I let your Majesty pass today, the laws and military disciplines of the country will be gone. Please get out of the car and allow the guards to inspect it carefully. It will not be too late to enter the city again!"
The woman in the car was so angry that her delicate body was shaking, she pointed at him with a livid face and said: "Okay, hello!"
Zhu Jian smiled slightly and stood proudly, obviously no longer paying attention to Prince Ning's Mansion.
The two sides faced off for a long time. Seeing that more and more people were watching, but the soldiers on the opposite side showed no intention of giving way, the woman in the car bit her silver teeth and suddenly pulled out the saber from the handlebar waist standing beside her. Zhu Jian's expression changed.
As soon as he changed, he pressed the handle of the knife and shouted: "What are you going to do?"
The woman in the car did not answer. She rolled her sword like a sword and cut the reins of the horse pulling the cart with a single stroke. She jumped forward and landed on the back of a horse lightly and deftly.
He yelled: "Follow me and rush through, who dares to stop me?"
After saying that, she galloped forward. When the knights under her heard this, they took off their big guns from the winning hooks, shouted, and flew the antlers of the horse to the side. Several soldiers on the opposite side were afraid of being hit by the horse.
Backing away in embarrassment, the fiery beauty thrust her legs into the horse's belly, the fiery red horse's mane flying like flames, the maroon horse and the man in white, galloping towards the city gate.
"Bold! Do you regard the laws of the country as nothing? Stop him!"
Suddenly there was another thunderous shout from under the city gate, and a group of soldiers rushed out. They stood up their large shields as tall as a man in a row, forming a shield wall. The shield edges collided with a clanging sound.
Long spears protruded from the gaps, like sharp thorns growing out of the shield. Just as the horse was about to hit the wall of thorns, the beauty in white suddenly grabbed the horse's mane, causing the horse to feel pain.
, Xi Yuyu let out a long hiss and stood up.
The horse did not have a saddle, but the beauty's riding skills were obviously very good. Her long legs held the horse's belly tightly and did not slip off. As soon as the horse's hoof hit the ground, the beauty held the knife with a dangerous look.
And looked sharply ahead. The highest general of the Daning City garrison was the Guard Commander Zhu Jian, but this man was even bolder than Zhu Jian, and he dared to issue orders above Zhu Jian. She really couldn't think of anyone else.
Because it was almost dusk at this time, the light in the city gate was dim, and when the two people in the city gate had not completely walked out, the outline of their faces was not clear. When the two people completely walked out, the beauty on the horse let out a slight sigh and said coldly.
Authentic: "Dudu Chen, General Liu!"
She recognized both of these people. One was Liu Zhen, the commander-in-chief of Jizhou. He was the one who transferred the three guards of Prince Ning's palace. The other was Chen Heng, the commander-in-chief of Xuanfu in Jizhou. He was transferred when the imperial court decided to reduce the vassalage.
Xibei became the military leader here. He was the one who took over all the troops under Prince Ning's command. Both of them had been to Prince Ning's Mansion, so of course she recognized them.
Chen Heng was less than fifty. Although his figure seemed a little thin, he frowned and had an air of calmness and authority. He stared coldly at the female knight on the horse, and his voice was neither fast nor slow, but extremely calm.
, solemnly: "The governor and General Liu inspected the border defense and came to Daning. They saw that everyone here obeys the rules and military laws are strict. It is the princess who does not want to violate the laws and regulations.
Your Majesty, the safety of Da Ning is not only related to the court, but also to Prince Ning and your Majesty, right? If your Majesty violates military discipline and national laws, where will His Highness Prince Ning be? Please listen to the advice of this Governor and dismount your horse for inspection, otherwise
, Don’t blame me for reporting the matter to the court truthfully. If the emperor blames me, he will not punish the empress, but will definitely scold His Highness, so... please don’t embarrass me..."
"you……"
The beauty on the horse's face turned blue and white, white and red, and after a long stalemate, she finally felt that she might not have to force her way through, and once the trouble was caused, it would be King Ning who would be unlucky in the end. Now is not the time when Emperor Hongwu is alive.
The princes were not as favored as outsiders, so they just gritted their teeth and turned the horse's head in shame and humiliation.
"Sha Ning! Don't move! Which turtle bastard dares to block the way of my beloved concubine!"
There was a roar in the distance, and the beauty on the horse couldn't help but light up her eyes and said in surprise: "Your Highness!"
I saw a black horse galloping in the distance like an arrow. On the horse was a young man wearing arrow sleeves and carrying a two-foot-long stick with copper hoops at both ends. There were a group of guards behind him, but no one ran as fast as he did.
That black-collared horse is as fast as a horse.
The Princess Ning named Shan Ning's nose quivered a few times, and her tears of regret could not help but roll down. She saw the black-coloured horse swept by the wind, roaring between Chen Heng and Liu Zhen
Then, the front finger of the copper stick hit a large shield with a bang. The soldier holding the shield couldn't hold it, and with a cry, the large shield flew out. Then the knight tugged the horse's head and swung the large shield.
The stick was smashed, and there was a loud bang and clang, and the soldiers holding shields were beaten so hard that they abandoned their shields and fled.
Immediately, the young man put his stick on the saddle and glared at the few guards who were still outside the city gate with lingering anger: "You bastards, you are escorting the princess, but you let the princess suffer such a shame and humiliation. I, the king, raised me."
What's the use of trash like you?"
At this time, Xia Xun saw what he looked like, and saw that this man was only about twenty years old, with hair tied in a ponytail and a black forehead, sword-shaped eyebrows and bright eyes, full of heroic spirit, wearing light clothes with arrow sleeves, a Qibao jade belt around his waist, and a
He dismounted the black horse and held a black iron rod in his hand. There was a copper hoop more than a foot long at each end, which looked like a golden hoop. That murderous aura and majesty!
Several guards from Prince Ning's palace around the carriage slipped off their horses, knelt down on the ground, and begged for punishment: "I am incompetent, your highness, please punish me!"
Xia Xun and Saihazhi looked at each other and thought: "This is King Ning! No wonder even King Yan spoke of him with a hint of praise. The twenty-six sons of Emperor Hongwu, if we only talk about
Brave and domineering, Ning Wang Zhu Quan and Xiang Wang Zhu Bai are probably still above Yan Wang!"
"Your Highness is so majestic..."
Liu Zhen, the commander-in-chief of Jizhou, said something equivocal. Before he could finish his words, Ning Wang Zhu Quan turned his head and stared at him with bright eyes, shouting: "Kneel down!"
Liu Zhen was startled, and his face suddenly darkened: "What did Your Highness say?"
Zhu Quan pointed the big stick at the tip of his nose and shouted: "I want you to kneel down!"
Liu Zhen said angrily: "I am the commander-in-chief of Jizhou..."
Zhu Quan sneered: "You are not the guard dog of my Zhu family!"
Chen Heng on the side was very unhappy when he heard this, and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness..."
Zhu Quan intercepted and said, "Kneel down too!"
Chen Heng raised his eyebrows, but before he could speak, Zhu Quan shouted sternly: "In the "Huang Ming Ancestor Instructions", the vassal princes' clan residences, clothing, carriage flags, and ceremonial systems are only inferior to the emperor.
You dare not to kneel down? I will smash your dog's head with a stick, and the emperor will not be able to say anything!"
Chen Heng's expression changed. He saw Zhu Quan gritting his teeth, holding the iron rod tightly, with a cold smile on his lips, but his eyes were full of murderous intent. He couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. He knew that this prince was really hairy. How dare he not
Kneel down, I am afraid that this prince really dares to strike him down with a stick. In desperation, I have no choice but to lift my robe and kneel down in the dust: "I... Chen Heng, I have met His Highness Prince Ning!"
Zhu Quan turned to the commander-in-chief Liu Zhen coldly. Chen Heng knelt on the ground and gently pulled the train of Liu Zhen's robe. Liu Zhen had no choice but to run away.
Zhu Quan held the stick in both hands and laughed up to the sky. The laughter made Chen Heng and Liu Zhen's faces turn red and white, and they were so embarrassed. After Zhu Quan finished laughing, his face sank and he snorted: "Zeng Er!"
One of the guards of Prince Yan's Mansion who had been kneeling on the ground and did not dare to raise their heads hurriedly crawled forward two steps, kowtowed and said, "I am here to serve you!"
Zhu Quan said sternly: "You good-for-nothing, just listen to me. If you let the princess be insulted in front of you again, you don't have to live anymore and come to see her yourself!"
Zeng Er knocked his head heavily on the ground: "I humbly obey my orders!"
Zhu Quan snorted and said: "One of you counts as one. After returning to the palace, you can go to the court to receive the military law. Each of you will receive twenty military sticks!"
Zeng and others kowtowed heavily and said in unison: "Thank you, Your Majesty for your grace!"
Zhu Quan glanced at the officers and soldiers with a murderous look, and snorted coldly: "Daning is my vassal, my concubine, and I have to accept your inspection before entering my own house? Ridiculous! Ridiculous!"
After saying that, he immediately stepped forward and said to the woman in white: "Sha Ning, let's go back home!"
After saying this, without looking back, he and his concubine Shaning rode forward, heading straight for the city. The palace guards who caught up quickly dispersed to guard them.
Chen Heng and Liu Zhen got up angrily and looked at each other with shame and irritation on their faces.
Xia Xun burst into laughter. This scene was really interesting! He was more confident in his trip to Daning. But... looking at the charming back of Shan Ning who was driving away with Ning Wang Zhu Quan, Xia Xun
Suddenly he remembered the sweet and crunchy "Brother Kui" on the hillside of Liujiakou. If he wanted to live a good life, he had to wear a little green on his head. Xia Xun seemed to have a green hat, wearing it upright.
On the head of Prince Ning...
