Hexi.
The small village that was looted by the Huns.
The originally empty land was now densely surrounded by countless people, just because His Highness the Fourth Prince was coming, bringing with him the Netherworld Iron Cavalry.
And also captured the Xiongnu Chanyu.
It is said that the Fourth Highness wanted to kill the Xiongnu Chanyu here to comfort the villagers in the small villages who died tragically due to the Xiongnu's looting, as well as the people in Hexi who died as a result.
Countless people came upon hearing the news, wanting to see the elegance of His Highness the Fourth Highness, wanting to see the majesty of the Netherworld Cavalry again, and wanting to witness this exciting moment in person.
So at this moment, the small village was already surrounded by a sea of people and it was suffocating.
Governor Xiao Shanhe has led a group of officials to wait for a long time. There are a large number of officers and soldiers around to maintain order. Although the scene is noisy, it is not chaotic. Everyone is looking forward to it.
With great excitement.
The few remaining female relatives in the small village were specially arranged aside by Xiao Shanhe at this moment, and they all looked extremely nervous and restrained.
At this time, a rumble of horse hooves came, and someone exclaimed: "Look! It's the Netherworld Cavalry. His Royal Highness is back. The Netherworld Cavalry is back!"
The huge crowd was in jubilation.
Xiao Shanhe looked nervous and quickly stepped forward to command the soldiers to maintain order.
When Lin Bai saw this dense crowd, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
Although all this was deliberately arranged by him and he asked Jue Wuyou to spread the news, the presence of so many people was still beyond his expectation.
I thought it was just the people nearby, which is good, but looking at the current situation, I am afraid that the entire Lanling people are here, so densely packed that it is impossible to see the end at a glance.
The Ganfanwang was also speechless, with a look of astonishment on his face.
As for Nangong Buhui, Ma Tashan and others, they looked arrogant because they could feel the extremely eager eyes of the crowd.
Those young soldiers who were far away from this land felt extremely proud when they saw this scene.
In fact, along the way, they have long felt the enthusiasm of the people in Hexi.
Just like at this moment, countless people came to deliver water, food, and even children to the soldiers. Of course, the children were allowed to experience the feeling of riding a war horse, and the soldiers were very happy.
The scene was extremely harmonious, with cheers coming and going, which was moving.
"Welcome to Your Highness the Fourth Prince."
Xiao Shanhe led a group of officials to rush forward to greet him.
The people around him also saluted, looking eagerly at the talented man and the Netherworld Cavalry.
The few remaining women in the small village looked very reserved at the moment. When they dared to scold the talented man, it was because they were ignorant and desperate.
It was naturally different at this moment, standing there at a loss.
Lin Bai dismounted directly.
At the same time, King Ganfan also walked up with a burly man dressed in noble clothes.
"Look! That's the Xiongnu Chanyu. Your Highness the Fourth Highness really captured the Xiongnu Chanyu alive."
"Damn the Huns, kill him!"
"..."
Seeing the Xiongnu Chanyu, the people were extremely angry. The Xiongnu had been causing trouble for a long time in Hexi. The Xiongnu came to harass the border, burned, looted, and committed all kinds of evil.
The people in Hexi hated them deeply.
Now the Fourth Highness has captured all the Xiongnu Chanyus, one can imagine.
At this moment, the Xiongnu Chanyu had been escorted by King Ganfan and knelt in front of the village and in front of the women.
Several women were very nervous, but they did not forget to express their thanks, "Thank you, Your Highness, for avenging our relatives."
They didn't know how to express their gratitude, so they could only kneel down on the ground and kowtow to Lin Bai.
Lin Bai quickly stepped forward and helped them up.
He said: "You don't need to thank General Ben. This is the responsibility of the Dali soldiers."
"Moreover, no matter how many Huns I kill, I can't bring back your relatives. They are no longer here. All I can do is try to prevent anything like this from happening again."
"General, I am here to offer sacrifices today not just to avenge you..."
Lin Bai glanced at the crowd as he spoke, and the loud voice continued to sound, "I want to warn the world and tell those jackals who try to offend my Dali that those who offend my Dali will be punished no matter how far away they are!"
puff! ! !
As soon as the words fell, the red eagle sword in Lin Bai's hand was already unsheathed, a bright red splashed out, and the Xiongnu Shanyu's big head suddenly rose into the sky.
"Anyone who violates our great distance will be punished no matter how far away!"
The loud voice of the Netherworld Cavalry echoed for a long time.
…
"Shocking news, His Highness the Fourth Prince has personally killed the Xiongnu Chanyu in Hexi, and is warning the world that anyone who offends our great separation will be punished no matter how far away he is!"
"The Fourth Highness and his Netherworld Cavalry are about to return to the capital."
"..."
Just because it’s so burning and inspiring.
He killed the Xiongnu Chanyu with his own hands and warned the world that who else could be there besides the Fourth Highness.
At this moment, the government and the public were shocked. The people of Lichao were all proud of being born in Lichao. The huge Lichao was unprecedentedly condensed, and the sun was at its peak.
Kunning Palace.
The queen's palace is deserted compared to the excitement outside.
I don't know since when, the maids and eunuchs here have dispersed one after another, leaving only a few people.
The queen looked into the distance with no big fluctuation on her face, as if she was used to this deserted scene.
"Mother!"
At this time, the seventh princess Zhu Ziyan walked in and said, "Mother, what happened to my father during this time?"
Her face was full of confusion.
During this period, something was obviously wrong with the father. His attitude towards his mother, his attitude towards himself, and even his attitude towards the Fourth Emperor Brother. Even though the Fourth Emperor Brother was not present at all, some of the things that the Fourth Emperor Brother had previously led were refuted.
She didn't understand why.
The queen looked at her without speaking, with a hint of guilt on her face.
Zhu Ziyan continued: "A while ago, my uncle asked for leave for no reason, saying he was sick, but I went to see my uncle and he was not sick at all."
"Moreover, all the guards of the Yang family have been changed, and there are also many imperial guards. What on earth did uncle commit?"
"Is it still what happened to the Four Emperors last time? But hasn't my father already forgiven him? He was also asked to take charge of the household department again, so why now..."
The queen still didn't answer, but just asked: "Did your father give another order today?"
Zhu Ziyan froze and said: "It is a matter of the Ministry of Commerce. When the emperor left, he repeatedly stated that listed merchants must be strictly reviewed. However, during this period, the emperor sent many people to the Ministry of Commerce. These people wanted to relax restrictions, but they were... Refuted."
"In the end, the trouble came to the father. The father reprimanded the son and told the son not to have to deal with the Ministry of Commerce's affairs in the future."
"Mother, what happened to my father? During this period, my father was still exchanging large-scale changes in the South Camp, North Camp and the Forbidden Army. What is my father going to do? Who does he want to deal with?"
"With all the peace and prosperity in Kyoto, who else deserves to go to war like this?"
"Brother Four Emperors will return to Beijing soon. Could it be that..."
…
