Chapter 423: Travel a hundred miles a day and arrive at Lingbi
Chapter 423: Traveling hundreds of miles a day, arriving at Lingbi
"Meet uncle!"
The two people came to Zhang Jun's room. Zhang Jun got up early under the service of his old servant and waited for their arrival.
Zhang Jun had no heirs in his life. Otherwise, he would not have only an old servant by his side at such an old age.
However, Zhang Jun in this life is also quite prosperous!
To be able to be at the top of the imperial court, and to be able to control an army of hundreds of thousands, he can be said to be an extremely human minister.
If there is only one regret, it is not that he has no descendants, but that he did not see the prosperity of the rich country. This is why, after Zhao Shen ascended the throne, Zhang Jun couldn't wait to launch the Northern Expedition with Zhao Shen, and he did not hesitate to sacrifice his life at the age of sixty-three Take charge of the army yourself.
Because he was afraid that if he kept waiting, he would not be able to reach the border of the Song Dynasty.
Although the Northern Expedition was very hard, what surprised him was that not only generals like Xin Qiji emerged, but also great talents like Shen Tang emerged.
Although, this time the Northern Expedition ended in vain.
However, he was extremely pleased, at least he could see hope.
Now, being able to watch Shen Tang grow up has become the happiest thing for him.
"Tang Shen, I am extremely happy to be able to do something for you with my own hands, and to be able to watch you take further steps.
I wish you a long life together and always be united."
Although Zhang Jun had a lot to say to Shen Tang, this was not the time to talk about it now.
Therefore, he was just like an old father, giving some earnest instructions, and then waved to the old servant beside him.
The old servant also had a happy face, and first handed the banknote wrapped in red silk to the two of them as a meeting gift.
Then, he took out a small silver box and opened it. Inside, there was a pair of bright silver rings.
"Shen Tang, Wan Yan Yue, although I am a very human minister, I don't have anything valuable! My Zhang family is not a wealthy family, and my father is just a minor official, so naturally it is impossible to have anything valuable. .
In terms of value, this pair of silver rings is probably only a few dozen taels, but this was given to me by my mother before she died, and it can be regarded as an inheritance."
"I have no children, and after the death of my wife, I did not remarry, so I kept these silver rings.
Now, I will give you this pair of silver rings. It is fate that we meet each other. I hope you will not let down your deep love for each other."
Shen and Tang did not refuse, but solemnly took the silver ring and kowtowed to the ground again.
Although Zhang Jun is not their closest relative, the things Zhang Jun has done for them and his feelings for them are enough for them to worship Zhang Jun as their closest relative.
"Okay, it's time for you to meet Wanyan Yue's mother.
When you get bored, just come back and accompany me."
Shen Tang and the others retreated.
Wanyan Yue's mother and Zhang Jun also lived in the second courtyard and were not far apart. Therefore, when the two of them left the room, they came to Wulin Dashanmei's room soon.
Entering the hall, the two of them still knelt down and worshiped.
And Ulinda Shanmei felt both happy and sad when she saw her delicate daughter looking shy.
Now this scene is undoubtedly what my daughter is looking forward to.
However, this cannot change the origin and future of the two people.
Soon, Shen Tang will return south, and by then, only his daughter will be left alone!
Maybe, this wait will last a lifetime.
But if this is not the case, is it necessary to break the most beautiful wish of my daughter?
But she couldn't bear it!
After a long while, she finally came back to her senses, took the tea cup held by Shen Tang and took a sip, but then she didn't know how to speak.
People say that the mother-in-law looks after her son-in-law, but I am not familiar with this son-in-law and I don't know what to say.
In this silence, Shen Tang suddenly kowtowed and said: "My dear mother, Xiao Xu Shen Tang swears here that he will not make Yue'er sad. Although I can't always be by Yue'er's side, as long as I have time, I will definitely come to the North to accompany Yue'er."
After pondering for a moment, Shen Tang said in a solemn voice: "Yue'er and I will not interfere with the affairs of the two countries. Whether the two countries are in harmony or enemies, Xiao Xu's feelings towards Yue'er will never change in any way."
In life, there will eventually be some things that cannot be perfected.
If that's the case, then just do it according to your heart.
Although he had various national hatreds with the Kingdom of Jin, this was not the reason for him to let down Wanyan Yue.
If such a woman fails, she will be punished by God.
Hearing Shen Tang's words, Wanyan Yue's face was moved, and Wulin Dashanmei also sighed and nodded.
"Shen Tang, since Yue'er accepts you, then I will naturally comply with your wishes. I just hope that you will remember your words and choices today, and don't have any regrets in the future!"
After the two visited Zhang Jun and Wan Yan Yue's mother, they visited He Shi Liezhining, Bian Xi, Xin Qiji and others in turn.
Naturally, everyone congratulated each other and gave gifts...
The army stayed here for three days, and then finally moved forward again. However, after traveling ninety-nine miles in one day, they came to the second camp again.
The etiquette of the last time was naturally gone, but there was still a red carpet greeting them. On the plaque on the door, the four words changed from 'destined for three lives' to 'a match made in heaven'.
I have to say that although time was tight, Zhang Jun and He Shiliezhining were extremely attentive.
Although each of these camps is not large in area, it is particularly exquisite.
The first camp was built according to the regulations and style of the Song Dynasty, but this second camp is as unique as the original camp of the Jin Dynasty!
They also stayed in the second camp for three days. Then, at this rhythm, this huge team traveled ninety-nine miles a day, and then stayed in a new camp for three days, and then continued. Forward……
A thousand miles away, there were eleven camps, but it took more than a month to finally arrive outside Lingbi City.
And the last eleventh camp is also located in Lingbi City.
Just when they were thinking about Lingbi City approaching, suddenly, a long honor guard procession walked out of Lingbi City.
The leader, Bian Xi, couldn't help but be surprised, "Is this...his Majesty's Luan Jia?"
Although it's a little far away, it's a bit hard to see clearly.
However, the canopy in the distance and the honor guard, each wearing red and yellow clothes, are obviously not ordinary Luanjia.
Immediately, he asked people to rush back and invite Zhang Jun to come.
Of course, Zhang Jun also noticed the anomaly ahead. He walked in front of the team and said to Bian Xi: "Bian Xi, go and find out quickly to see if it is His Majesty's chariot coming."
