When they arrived at the outskirts of the capital, due to the law that troops outside the Nine Gates were not allowed to enter the city without orders, Yan Bing could only order the large troops to rest outside the city and wait for orders, while he led Sun Wu and twelve soldiers to push the "hot air balloon"
Entered the city.
The deflated hot air balloon was now placed on the cart. In the eyes of others, it was no different from a basket full of silk, so the journey to the Imperial City Gate was uneventful.
After a few brief greetings with Commander Zhang of the Vermillion Bird Sect, Yan Bing led everyone into the imperial city. Until then, Sun Wu on the side could no longer calm down. He approached Yan Bing and asked in a low voice:
"Ding Guo Gong, I shouldn't talk too much, but if I don't ask, I really feel uneasy! Are you trying to..."
"I will lead you to face the Holy Spirit!" Yan Bing put his little hands behind his back and added directly without taking it seriously.
Everyone was shocked immediately!!!
Yan Bing himself has long been accustomed to such scenes, but the people below are obviously not so calm. After all, this is a face to face!!! It may only happen once in a lifetime!!!
A small commotion ensued.
"What!!??"
“I really want to meet the saint!!”
"I am completely unprepared!!"
While the dozen or so soldiers were talking, they stopped pushing their carts and gathered together, arranging each other's military appearances so as not to leave a bad impression on the emperor.
"I didn't bring you here for the talent show!!! Why are you all more pretentious than me!!!" Yan Bing looked at the soldiers with a half-smile and shouted, but just this half-joking roar was not enough.
It was enough to act as a deterrent, and everyone immediately ran back to their original positions, looking like they were bowing their heads and preparing to be scolded.
But Yan Bing was a little surprised when he saw this scene, because this confirmed the level of leadership of Lao Wu and the others.
Orders and prohibitions, strict discipline!!
Yan Bing couldn't help but nodded and smiled happily.
"That's it! I'll give you a ten count! Hurry up and get it straightened out! Once you've got it straightened up, we're going to meet the saint."
After hearing this, a dozen soldiers looked at each other and smiled, and their original nervousness relaxed.

At the same time, Emperor Xuansi in the imperial study also received the news that Yan Bing had entered the palace. After learning that she had led a dozen soldiers to push a cart!! Long Yan was instantly overjoyed!!!
He threw the corrected memorial on the dragon table, stood up slowly, straightened the sleeves of his robe, and said with a smile: "This girl is here to "offer treasures" to me again!! Go!! Move the seat for her in advance
!!”
"yes!"
Since King Qi passed away, Xiao Zhezi rarely saw His Majesty smile. Now that he saw His Majesty in a good mood, he was also happy. He quickly moved behind the screen and moved a wooden stool out. But when he raised his head again,
Seeing that Emperor Xuansi was already sitting on the Arhat chair, he put down the bench, served Emperor Xuansi a cup of tea, and placed it respectfully on the coffee table.
Emperor Xuansi raised his sleeves, picked up the tea bowl, sipped the tea, looked at the main entrance of the imperial study, and looked forward to it with a smile on his face...
As a result, I never expected that... I had been looking forward to it for nearly half an hour...
Emperor Xuan Si's face had frozen with laughter, and Yan Bing was nowhere to be seen...
"Pah!" Emperor Xuansi slapped the tea bowl on the table, his face turned cold, and he said in a deep voice: "It's been half an hour!! Is my palace so big? It takes so long to leave!"
!!Go and see! What’s going on!!”
"Yes." Xiao Zhezi hurriedly bowed and agreed. Just as he walked towards the main door, Emperor Xuansi called out to him again.
"There's no need to go! I... I can probably guess what's going on! Come on! Xuandemen!"
"yes……"
………………
……………………
So where is Yan Bing at this time?
Emperor Xuansi guessed correctly...
She was really stuck at Xuandemen...
At the last post entering the main hall...
"Dong Dingguo! Your Majesty has told you this several times! His Majesty only allows you to enter and leave the palace at will! These soldiers! They are armed with weapons! They even pushed such a suspicious cart! I'm sorry that I dare not let you go!!
!”
"I have explained it to you several times!! These soldiers, their weapons and the things on the carts are all presented to His Majesty by the Lord of the country!!! Why can't you understand!!!??"
"In that case, please ask Duke Ding to go through the customs first, and ask for your Majesty's oral instructions. I will let you go immediately!!"
"If you want to go, send someone!!! I'm not going!!!" Yan Bing had been arguing with him here for almost half an hour. At this time, he was also holding back his anger and started to have sex.
Commander Liu, who was in charge of the last post, was also known as a "tough guy". He always only acted in accordance with the palace prohibitions and refused to sell anyone's face. It was precisely because of his temper that Emperor Xuansi deliberately placed
This last post, which is also the most important post in the palace, was entrusted to him.
"Xiaguan is only responsible for guarding the city gate! He has no right of communication! Please don't embarrass Xiaguan, Duke Ding!" Although Liu Jingyu was bowing to explain at this moment, his tone was still stiff and did not give any room for maneuver.
If it were normal times, Yan Bing would definitely not compete with him like this, but today is different!
Because the group of people she brought were none other than her own! They were all her own soldiers!
They are all watching her from behind!!! If she gives in today! If the news returns to the military camp, how will she establish prestige in the army in the future! How will she lead the troops!!??
This is no longer a simple matter of face...
This is about her military career!!!
What's more, she has already promised before! She will lead her group of people to face the saint!!
Then you have to do what you say!! There is no room for negotiation!!
Thinking of this, Yan Bing's face darkened, he looked at Liu Jingyu and said in a deep voice: "Okay! You have to admit death with me, right? Just watch!!"
After Yan Bing finished speaking, he turned around and gave an order directly to the group of soldiers: "Everyone get in the car!!!"
The soldiers hesitated for a moment, then began to strictly implement the order, and climbed onto the cart one after another. The weight of more than a dozen people pressed up, and the cart immediately made a huge "scream", "crack" sound, and "squeak" sound.
The sound came and went, as if the axle might break at any time.
But Yan Bing didn't care so much at the moment. When everyone squeezed into the cart, she stepped forward and raised her hand, pushing the cart to go in, and said plausibly: "Now this cart!!
This is the "treasure" that my Lord has brought to His Majesty!!! What else can you say now!!??"
"You!!!" Liu Jingyu's face turned green with anger. Are you just treating yourself like a three-year-old child?!??
He directly pressed the sheath spring, pulled out the sword, blocked it in front of the car, and whispered: "Please don't force me, Duke Ding!!!"
Yan Bing was immediately angry. It's obvious that you don't understand the situation! You don't know how to behave!! Now I'm forcing you!!!??
In anger, he raised the handlebars and shouted loudly: "Okay! My father-in-law will not force you today! My father-in-law will kill you today!!!" After saying that, he pushed the car forward and rushed forward.
!!It was also at this time that Emperor Xuansi arrived...
"Qihua, among these commanders, he is the one who suits me the most... You should spare his life!"
Upon hearing this, Yan Bing immediately recognized His Majesty's voice, quickly put down the car and went to greet him.
"Your Majesty——!!" Yan Bing walked closer, bowed and saluted, and winked at him crazily...
Emperor Xuan Si was an "old fox" with thousands of years of experience. He looked at the confused-looking soldiers on the cart, and then at Liu Jingyu who was standing with a sword, and immediately understood Yan Bing's dilemma at this moment...
I laughed directly...
I couldn't help but laugh...
While smiling, he patted Yan Bing's shoulder and whispered to her: "I never thought that a naughty girl like you has a hard bone that she can't chew!! Hahahaha..."
Yan Bing smiled bitterly and replied softly: "Your Majesty is the one who has the knowledge to dig out such a "big treasure"... I am really at my wits end..."
"Your Majesty..." When Liu Jingyu saw Emperor Xuansi coming in person, he quickly put away his sword, came over and knelt down on one knee to salute.
When Sun Wu and others saw the guards at the city gate, they all started to kneel down. Then they suddenly turned around and got out of the car, kneeling together.
Emperor Xuansi was stroking his beard, still holding back his laughter, and said to Liu Jingyu with a smile on his face: "Jingyu... your stubborn character really makes me happy and worried... That's all, too.
It’s not your fault, it’s me
I didn’t make it clear in advance. Please listen carefully. From now on, when Duke Ding enters the palace, no matter who he brings or what he brings, he cannot stop him. I... I trust her very much! I trust her as much as I trust you! You understand.
What?"
Liu Jingyu was stunned when he heard this. He slowly turned his head and looked at Yan Bing again. Then he lowered his head and said, "Master, take the order!"
Emperor Xuansi smiled and nodded, and said loudly: "Everyone, get up!"
Everyone then slowly straightened up.
Li Bing also stood up and secretly gave Emperor Xuan Si a thumbs up with a smile on his face.
Emperor Xuansi looked at Yan Bing and said jokingly: "Don't be so playful and smiling like me, tell me quickly what kind of treasures you have made in the past three days, and quickly take it out for me to see."
After saying that, he raised his hand again and waved it towards Liu Jingyu, signaling him to retreat.
Liu Jingyu nodded and returned to Xuande Gate.
Yan Bing still had a playful smile on his face and said to Emperor Xuansi: "Your Majesty, this thing is a bit big and it will take a long time to prepare. Why not take advantage of this time and send someone to summon He Shangshu into the palace to watch it together, so as not to prevent him from reacting to it?"
I have always had a misunderstanding..."
"Well," Emperor Xuansi smiled, raised his hand and waved it in the air. Xiao Zhezi immediately understood and muttered a few words to a young eunuch behind him. The young eunuch nodded and then quickly ran out of the palace gate.
.
Li Bing took advantage of this moment to turn around and come to the car, and began to give instructions to the soldiers about their deployment.
The soldiers took the order and pushed the cart to the square of the main hall. They unloaded the hot-air balloon. Following Yan Bing's instructions, they lowered the wooden basket, and a huge cloth made of silk and asbestos was slowly spread out.
On the ground, several people opened the mouth of the huge cloth bag. Yan Bing stepped forward and took out the fire stick, ignited the burner of the hot air balloon, opened the valve to the maximum, and the huge flames immediately began to spray hot air into the huge sphere of the cloth bag.
While the hot air balloon was starting to heat up and inflate, Yan Bing took out the "monocular telescope" from his pocket and handed it to Emperor Xuan Si with both hands, teaching him how to use it while watching the process of inflating the hot air balloon.
The guards at Xuandemen also turned their heads and secretly watched with curiosity. Only Liu Jingyu was the only one, leaning on the hilt of his sword, still staring outside the city gate.
"Tsk... If this person had a smarter mind, he should be a general... What a pity..." Yan Bing looked at Liu Jingyu's back and murmured in a low voice.
Emperor Xuansi was playing with the telescope and said in a deep voice: "Everyone has a position that is most suitable for him. Isn't this good? This is called "appropriate employment." After all, my palace also needs this.
Only when people look at me can I rest assured..."
Hearing this, Yan Bing turned to look at Emperor Xuansi, then smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Haha, being the emperor is so tiring..."
"Do you think I want to be that person!? Isn't there nothing you can do about it..." Emperor Xuansi replied directly.
After saying that, the monarch and his ministers looked at each other and smiled...
