The teaching team, which had recovered to 200 riders, stopped in the distance.
Chen Yougen gave an order to leave ten people to collect the horses, while the rest protected Shao Xun and headed towards the holy driver.
Fei Li hesitated again and asked, "Who is coming?"
"Lieutenant Sima Shaoxun of the East China Sea Kingdom, on the orders of Governor Mi Huang, is here to greet the Emperor." Shao Xun replied loudly.
Fei Li dismounted, bowed and said, "Please Shao Sima and his men stay away for a moment, so as not to disturb the emperor."
Shao Xun kept walking.
Chen Yougen snorted coldly, and led more than ten strong men with helmets and armors to step forward, squeezing and pushing Fei Li and his men aside.
Fei Li was furious and clenched the handle of the knife with his right hand, wanting to bite someone.
Chen Yougen didn't even look at him. His own teaching team member stepped forward and looked at Fei Li.
One side has no armor and incomplete equipment.
One party was wearing iron armor, carrying a crossbow and holding a heavy sword.
Fei Li didn't dare to take action after all.
Sima Ying opened her mouth and wanted to reprimand her, but when Shao Xun glanced at her, she closed her mouth again.
This young man had left a deep impression on him. If he went crazy, there would be many people here that he could kill.
"Your Majesty." When he reached the car, Shao Xun touched his head to the ground and paid homage.
Sima Zhong sniffed and said happily: "Get up quickly. What's your name? Can you bring wine and food?"
"My name is Shao Xun, and I am about to serve His Majesty for dinner." After Shao Xun stood up, he clapped his hands.
Soon, soldiers from the teaching team began to unload things from the pack horses.
Shao Xun took matters into his own hands, spread a blanket on the grass and put down the futon.
The soldiers brought a few small tables, food boxes and utensils.
Sima Zhong got off the carriage and looked happy.
"Your Majesty has been on a hunting tour for a long time. He ate in the open air and drank chicken soup first." Shao Xun took out an earthen pot and raised it above his head.
The waiter took the jar and wanted to taste it first.
Sima Zhong spoke to stop him: "Qingtian protects the heroes, how can you harm me?"
Although the emperor was called a fool in private, he could distinguish who were loyal ministers and knew who was good to him. In this matter, he has to surpass many people.
After Sima Zhong sat down on the futon, he took the chicken soup scooped by the waiter and swallowed it in big gulps.
Shao Xun took out another rice steamer and said, "This is the porridge made by Xincheng Rice. Your Majesty has been away from Beijing for a long time, so you should think about this."
The new city is near Luoyang and was famous for its rice cultivation during the Cao and Wei Dynasties.
Cao Pi once commented on Xincheng rice: "When cooked in the upper wind, you can smell the fragrance from five miles away."
As famous as Xincheng rice is Hanoi rice.
Yuan Zhun mentioned in "Recruiting Young Masters": "The green rice in Hanoi, the white rice in Xincheng, the weak green rice in Liang, the wet and slippery breeze."
It can be seen that there is still a certain scale of rice cultivation around Luoyang, but the price is high and it is not easy for ordinary people to enjoy it.
Upon hearing this, Sima Zhong quickly put down the chicken soup and urged the waiter to serve him porridge.
Sima Ying swallowed on the side.
Shao Xun signaled with his eyes, and another soldier from the teaching team unwrapped the package from under the saddle, took out the biscuits, and distributed them to everyone accompanying him.
The biscuits were hard and difficult to swallow, but everyone still devoured them and thanked them one after another.
"This is roasted goose." Shao Xun added, "I will cut and roast the goose for Your Majesty. You can eat it in a moment."
Sima Zhong nodded repeatedly in admiration.
Shao Xun just served the food in a leisurely and respectful manner.
In the end, he even poured some wine for the emperor.
Sima Zhong drank it all in one gulp. After he was full of wine and food, he grabbed Shao Xun's hand and choked with sobs: "There are so many ministers, but only Shao Qing came to greet me."
"Your Majesty, the governor Mi Huang, the imperial censor Shi Yuchen and others are waiting in Fupingjin to welcome the Holy Emperor." Shao Xun replied.
Sima Zhong thought for a while, remembered these two people, and said: "These are all loyal ministers. I will definitely be rewarded after I return the capital."
After saying that, he asked the attendant to help him up and said, "Let's go back to the capital now."
"I obey the order." After Shao Xun finished speaking, a cold wind blew. He immediately took off his cloak and said, "The cold wind is strong. Your Majesty, please wear this fake bell to protect yourself from the wind and sand."
Sima Zhong took it blankly, and his attendants quickly put it on him.
The fake bell is a cape or cape, so named because it is shaped like a bell.
Because most people in the north ride horses, fake bells are a very common clothing that can protect against wind and sand without hindering movement, so they are widely worn.
In the South, fake clocks are less common and are considered a form of informal dress.
During the Liang Dynasty in the Southern Dynasties, Liu Xian was about to go to Xunyang, and everyone agreed to see him off. He took out ten pieces of silk and said that if anyone came wearing strange clothes on the farewell day, these silks would be his.
On that day, Zhou Hongzheng, wearing green silk trousers and an embroidered aril (bell), arrived with great dignity and won the bid to get the silk.
The difference in style between the north and the south is evident.
After Sima Zhong put on the fake clock, he felt much warmer, possibly due to psychological effects.
Shao Xun went to his horse again and took the horse stem from the soldiers who stayed behind. He stood next to the Holy Horse and said, "Your Majesty, please allow me to escort the horse forward. As long as I am here, no thieves will dare to rush into the Holy Horse."
Sima Zhong's eyes turned red.
With such loyal ministers, why worry about the world not being peaceful!
Seeing that the emperor acquiesced, Shao Xun winked again.
Chen Yougen understood, and before the driver could react, he seized the position first and drove for the emperor.
"Your Majesty, this is Chen Yougen, the leader of the building. He is loyal and brave, and he is the leader of the three armies." Shao Xun introduced.
"Chen Yougen..." The emperor thought silently for a moment and said, "There are strong men driving the chariot, and Shao Qing is the guard. I have no worries. Let's get on with the ride."
"No." Chen Yougen responded and drove the carriage steadily forward.
Shao Xun was wearing armor and holding a spear, and was escorting on foot.
The soldiers of the teaching team returned to their horses one after another, gathered around, and followed closely.
The accompanying officials, ministers, and princes looked at me and I looked at you, and couldn't help but take a breath.
This little lieutenant Sima is so good at it!
The emperor had a very good impression of him, and everyone also accepted some favors. He almost stole the limelight today.
Some well-informed people, thinking of Shao Xun's efforts to drive Zhang Fang away and protect Luoyang, knew in their minds that they began to quietly inquire about his family background.
Sima Ying had a stinky face and deliberately lagged behind, but there were still bursts of "noise" in her ears.
"How old is Shao Xun? What is his family rank?"
"Is this person married?"
"Does the King of East China Sea value this person?"
"If he can become the governor of the county, he can be my good son-in-law."
And so on.
"Brother, when you stay under someone else's roof, the most important thing is to be patient." Fei Li quietly came over and whispered.
Sima Ying nodded slowly, with a sad expression.
Just a year ago, he sent more than 200,000 troops to attack Luoyang.
At that time, the soldiers were marching in a meandering way, and the sound of drums stretched for hundreds of miles. The grandeur of the lineup has not been seen in a century.
Only a year later, the situation took a turn for the worse.
Yecheng was captured by Wang Jun, and the dead were not counted.
He took his family and fled in a hurry, with nowhere to go.
How did that happen?
After Sima Ying finished doubting her life, she raised her head again and looked at the armored general. This person is just like the rising sun, with a bright future, which is in sharp contrast to himself.
Things in the world are so confusing and confusing that it’s hard to keep track of them.
****
With no pursuers, the journey went fairly smoothly.
On the early morning of the ninth day of October, Sheng drove across the pontoon bridge to Fupingjin on the south bank of the Yellow River.
All of a sudden, the ferry was filled with drums and music, and it was very lively.
The emperor who had just got off the car was moved again.
Shao Xun squeezed in front of the attendant without leaving any trace, and supported the emperor.
"My lords...my lords..." the emperor choked and shed two lines of hot tears.
"I respectfully welcome the Holy Master." Mi Huang and Wang Yan took the lead and fell to the ground one after another.
"Everyone is safe." Sima Zhong shouted in a tearful voice.
Everyone stood up one after another.
Wang Yan gathered his emotions and said: "Your Majesty is hunting in the north, and the ancestral temple is shocked. I live in Luoyang, there are thieves outside, and there are rebellions inside. We fight hard and have a little peace of mind. Now that we welcome the Holy Lord back, we will surely revive the decayed gang." , ushering in a prosperous industry, leading to continuous bountiful harvests, and prosperity in Huarong. The Great Jin-Zhongxing is expected!"
"There is hope for the great rejuvenation of the Jin Dynasty!" Everyone congratulated one after another.
Shao Xun gained a new understanding of Wang Yan's "bullshit".
The whole world is behaving like this, yet he insists on saying that he wants to "ZTE", that's awesome!
Wang Yan was standing there calmly at this time, with no color on his face.
You are an old man, so what does shame mean? It is true to control the situation and gain benefits.
I coaxed the emperor a little today, and the emperor remembered it. Are you going to follow his instructions for the next government arrangements? At least until Sima Yue returns to Luoyang, he can steadily control the government.
Wang Yan was making plans here, while Sima Zhong over there calmed down and asked, "Where are Mi Huang and Yu Chen?"
Um? Wang Yan was slightly surprised.
"I'm here," Mi Huang and Yu Chen responded.
"Shao Qing has already described the merits of both of you in detail." Sima Zhong said, "I will be rewarded after I return to the palace."
Mi Huang and Yu Chen were excited and said in unison: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty."
Sima Zhong nodded and said: "Go back to Luoyang."
If you have the time, you might as well go to Hualin Garden to see frogs. Civil and military officials are really not as interesting as toads. They will even call out for me twice. What do you think? Hey, there seems to be no frogs at this time of year...
Sima Zhong's interest suddenly dropped a lot. After getting on the car unhappily, he suddenly waved and said, "Shao Qing and I are riding in the same car."
Um? Can I really drive a car with you, Your Majesty?
Shao Xun was overjoyed and said: "I obey the order."
After saying that, he got on the carriage and continued to wear armor and guard the emperor.
The corners of Wang Yan's mouth twitched slightly.
He looked at Shao Xun, and Shao Xun's eyes seemed to catch him.
The old and new generations of "actors" looked at each other with big eyes and small eyes, and they all smiled, and everything was clear.
After leaving Fupingjin, Shengjia headed south and arrived in Luoyang two days later.
The emperor of Jin Dynasty returned to his loyal Luoyang with his holy nature intact.
