Dayu's Forbidden Army lined up neatly waiting for the Emperor to leave. Every Forbidden Army soldier was tall and majestic enough.
The common people watched from a distance, intimidated by the imposing manner of the Forbidden Army, and did not dare to get too close.
This forbidden army stands here, motionless as a mountain, but as long as it moves, it moves like a torrent.
The emperor came out of the courtyard gate, stood on the steps and looked around.
All the Forbidden Soldiers raised their right arms and spread them across their chests, and everyone's eyes were filled with fiery awe.
The people in the distance knelt down involuntarily.
The emperor waved to the people and then walked towards the royal chariot.
Wanyu Tower brought the remaining officials to send off the emperor, and everyone seemed to have very complicated feelings in their hearts.
What does it mean when the emperor goes to Guzhu?
I just heard that General Lin Ye and Northeast Commander Lue Ning Weiwei were attacked. Your Majesty will rush to Guzhu. This is your attitude.
This attitude is for the people of Guzhu, the people of Dayu, the civil and military officials, and even some people in Dongbo.
What the Emperor means is... the generals and local officials I sent to far-flung territories were all ambushed. The Emperor will have to deal with this matter.
I will support the people I send.
After boarding the royal chariot, the emperor waved his hand and all the officials kowtowed.
"saint."
Gu Xiujin said from behind the emperor: "The imperial concubine has already boarded the car and can set off."
The emperor hummed: "Then let's go."
Behind the imperial chariot was Concubine Wan Guifei's chariot. This concubine was always able to drive with her Majesty wherever she went, and her great favor was evident.
In the car, the emperor sat down, with only Gu Xiujin waiting on him, and two large boxes of books.
The emperor likes to read and has many interests. He can read any book.
This chariot is large enough, and there are enough places on both sides of the carriage for guards to stand. If it is full, more than twenty people can stand on each side.
But there were only four people on both sides of the carriage, and these four people had their own seats.
The two Ouchi guards, who were wearing soft scale armor, looked heavy-faced and unsmiling.
The other two are Shangyang Palace priests wearing red robes. You can tell how high their status is by looking at the embroidered patterns on the red robes.
At this moment, the people sitting in the third carriage behind Concubine Wan Gui's car did not expect that they would also accompany them.
One is Tuoba Lie's sister Tuoba Yunxi, and the other is Lin Ye's sister Xie Zinai.
I didn't expect it, but I saw it, so just now the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were very preoccupied and had to make various guesses.
Nowadays, there are two generals in the Northern Territory of Dayu, and both of them have a younger sister.
Now, the sisters of these two generals are traveling with His Majesty...
It is actually not difficult to guess why Lin Ye's sister accompanied him. Because Lin Ye was attacked, it was reasonable for His Majesty to take Miss Zina with him.
But with Tuoba Lie's sister, the meaning seems to become complicated.
In the carriage, Zinai carefully looked at Tuoba Yunxi's face. She was worried whether her aunt would be unhappy.
Even she could think that His Majesty brought Tuoba Yunxi to beat Tuoba Lie, but how could Tuoba Yunxi not think of it himself.
"People are as big as little devils."
Tuoba Yunxi suddenly said something. She looked at Zinai, squinted her eyes and smiled.
If Zinai is really a little fox as big as a brat, then in front of Tuoba Yunxi, her cultivation is really very different.
Tuoba Yunxi just glanced at her twice and could tell from Zinai's eyes what this little girl was thinking.
"Don't think so much."
Tuoba Yunxi smiled and said: "I heard that Lone Bamboo has the most beautiful beach in the world and the most beautiful bamboo forest in the world. These are places I have always wanted to visit."
Zina said: "Then I will watch it with my aunt."
Tuoba Yunxi said: "My aunt has experienced more things than you, and she has seen more changes than you."
She raised her hand and gently rubbed Zina's head.
"So, kids like you don't have to worry about my aunt."
She said: "I just feel a little sad for children like you and your brother. Because they have experienced suffering themselves, they can't bear to see others suffering. Compassion has long been lost on children like you who should not be sensible but are sensible."
On the body."
Her hands are so gentle.
Zinai felt like crying for a moment.
Tuoba Yunxi picked up the box next to him, handed it to Zina and said, "I brought some candies, I made them."
When she said these three words about what I did, her eyes were shining with a little pride.
Zina took it and opened the box as if she couldn't wait to open it. When she saw the candies, her eyes became bright.
Every one is so beautiful.
Tuoba Yunxi said: "I have always thought that if I can live the life I want in the future, I will go to a quiet small town and sell candy."
She looked out the car window.
"Candies are given out only during happy events, so people who come to buy candies are full of joy."
She said: "How wonderful it is to be happy."
She looked at Zinai and said, "When Zinai has a happy event in the future, Auntie Candy will take care of it."
Zina chuckled.
Tuoba Yunxi reached out his hand again and gently stroked Zinai's head.
She said: "At your age, you should be sweet. All children in the world should not be bitter when they should be sweet."
Zina raised her head to look at her aunt, and saw that her eyes were still sparkling, but at this time, their sparkling eyes were filled with water.
For a moment, she didn't know what happened to her aunt.
"Eat."
Tuoba Yunxi smiled, but when he smiled, his eyes narrowed, and when he narrowed his eyes, tears fell down.
"Aunt..."
Zinai stretched out her hand and helped Tuoba Yunxi wipe away those two tears.
"The wind came in the window."
Tuoba Yunxi turned his head.
She said to herself: "You said that the wind and sand blew into the window and blinded your eyes. Should you blame the wind and sand, or should you blame the window for not closing it? Both sides are right, and both sides are wrong...
Who is to blame?”
Zinai couldn't understand, even though she was as smart as ice and snow, she didn't understand, or maybe she felt that Jin Zi shouldn't understand.
On the other side, inside the royal chariot.
Emperor Yu asked Gu Xiujin to unfold the map. He sat leaning on the chair and his eyes slowly moved across the map.
Gu Xiujin asked: "The sage is watching, how many days will it take to get to Guzhuyangzicheng?"
The emperor shook his head: "I am looking at how many days it takes to travel from Xiantang City to Yangzi City."
Gu Xiujin thought that the saint should not be thinking about the distance, but the distance.
Journey and distance are different. The journey is in your feet, but the distance is in your heart.
"Send a message to Yangzicheng to ask Ning Weimo not to go out of the city to pick me up, and to recover when he needs to."
After Gu Xiujin heard this sentence, he immediately understood what His Majesty meant.
Your Majesty wants to deal with the matter of Mr. Northeast Manager being assassinated and injured. If Mr. Ning manages to run out far away to pick him up, what will happen to him?
So Gu Xiujin said with a smile: "Master Ning is smart. Even if the saint doesn't explain, he will probably think of it." The emperor smiled and said: "Have I ever told you that you are a talented person who can be a high official in the border areas."
Gu Xiujin said: "The sage has said it several times, and the sage always said that I will make the saint happy, but I feel that your majesty is really kind to me..."
Before he finished speaking, the emperor smiled.
"Are you saying that I am coaxing you to play? Are you trying to draw a pie for you to eat? Are you lying to children?"
He said: "If you think so, I might really release you to be a local official one day. I can make so many useless idiots marquis, duke or even king, so why don't I dare to release you to be an official?"
?”
These words frightened Gu Xiujin and he quickly knelt down.
"I don't dare, I never have such intention, I..."
"Get up, you."
The emperor smiled and said: "There are not many interesting people around me. If I scare you to death, I will be even more boring."
He paused for a moment and then said: "Send someone to Xiantang City and tell Yun Guhong that the report of the Dongbo battle should be sent to Guzhu Yangzi City for me to know."
Yun Guhong is another general of Dayu.
This time the emperor mobilized heavy troops to fight in Dongbo, and it was this man who led the troops there.
The emperor had previously decreed that the Northern Expedition would be led by General Tuoba Lie of the Beiye Army and Yun Guhong would be the deputy commander.
Although Yun Guhong brought an army of 500,000 people, and the Beiye Army only had 100,000 people, Tuobalie's position was still there, and it would not be a shame for Yun Guhong to be his deputy.
However, the emperor's words just now made Gu Xiujin keenly aware that the emperor beat Tuoba Lie harder.
Yun Guhong was asked to deliver the battle report to Guzhu. Tuoba Lie's name was not mentioned in this order.
The emperor sat there, looked at Gu Xiujin who was deep in thought, smiled and said, "Are you speculating on my thoughts again?"
Gu Xiujin quickly said: "I am guilty, I am out of my mind."
The emperor asked with a smile: "Tell me something unrelated to court affairs. I remember that you are from Lanzhou, your hometown? You followed your parents to settle in Geling. You entered the palace because of family circumstances."
Gu Xiujin replied: "The saint has a good memory. I am indeed from my hometown of Lanzhou. I left when I was seven years old and walked for more than a year before arriving at Geling."
The emperor asked: "Do you think this journey is interesting?"
Gu Xiujin said: "At that time, I felt that it was boring. I was on the road every day. At the age of seven, there was no way I could suffer. I always felt that I would never want to live a day like that."
The emperor nodded.
He said: "Do you still remember what interesting places and beautiful scenery there are in your hometown?"
Gu Xiujin said: "I don't remember much, I just remember that there was a river and my home was by the river. My father would always chat with people on passing merchant ships, and the one he talked about the most was Geling."
"My father said that after I save enough money, I must go to Geling. No matter what, I have to go."
When he said this, he fell silent.
His father kept his promise and took him and his mother to Geling. However, not long after arriving in Geling, his father fell ill.
In order to treat his father, just in time for the palace to accept people, his mother cried and sent him to the palace in exchange for twenty taels of silver.
"In the future, I will take you back to my hometown of Lanzhou to see you."
The emperor looked out the window again.
He said: "I have always had two great ambitions in my heart. One is almost successful, and the other... is about to start."
Gu Xiujin leaned over and said: "Therefore, Lanzhou is incomparable to Geling. I can still remember that life there is hard."
The emperor said: "Everyone has to see it."
At this moment, several loud eagle cries were heard in the sky, as if to demonstrate to the huge army marching on the ground.
