In this way, Gui Yunzheng not only borrowed tens of thousands of elite soldiers, but also unexpectedly brought back a beautiful woman. After the two returned to Jincheng, they held a grand wedding under Ma Yue's personal auspices. There was a big banquet in Jincheng for three days, and the soldiers and the people enjoyed themselves.
Five days later, Gui Yunzheng took Ma Zijin, ordered all the soldiers, escorted several carts of gold and silver treasures, and rushed back to Chang'an.
These days, Chang'an City has also undergone great changes.
City Patrol Captain Li Xin, with the help of Long Wu, the former leader of the Chang'an Beggar Gang, once again cleaned up the remnants of the Loyalty League in Chang'an City. It is estimated that only a handful of small shrimps could escape.
Lin Zhijing and Xu Lang were not idle for a day. They had to take care of the security of Chang'an City, keep an eye on the movements of the newly surrendered soldiers, and assist He Huairen in recruiting troops. Fortunately, everything went smoothly. In less than half a month, 30,000 people had been raised. A group of Tongguan surrendered generals also had a place to use, and they were dispersed into the military camp to train new soldiers.
Both of them knew that no matter what the outcome would be, the day Gui Yunzheng came back would be the time to mobilize troops and raise righteousness. The two of them were looking forward to it, but also worried. When great ambitions are unfolding, people's moods are always so contradictory.
Su Hejing and Prince Fu, on the other hand, stepped up their preparations while waiting. King Fu and Gui Yunzheng had already written a joint response to the rebellion, and the civil and military officials of Chang'an City also conducted another secret investigation, and dealt with those who were related to the imperial court or Prince Jing's palace. Chang'an City has even started a retreat mode. In particular, be careful not to go out.
This series of actions made the people of Chang'an vaguely guess that something big was going to happen in Chang'an.
"Report——"
As several riders stopped in front of Prince Fu's Mansion covered with dust, the interior of Prince Fu's Mansion began to boil.
"Your Majesty, Master Su, the young master has led tens of thousands of troops and has passed Xianyang and is heading towards Chang'an!"
The one who spoke was none other than Cang Long.
Seeing that Chang'an was close, Gui Yunzheng sent him and several of his men to report to the palace first.
"Haha, Canglong, with that said, it's done!"
When King Fu heard this, he forgot the majesty of the prince and laughed loudly with joy.
"Exactly, exactly! The young master's entry into Longyou went quite smoothly. General Anxi is really a trustworthy person. The young master not only borrowed tens of thousands of elite soldiers, but also formed a good relationship with the granddaughter of General Anxi. It is really a double happiness. Ah! Hehe!"
Canglong couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart.
"Haha, Canglong, please take a drink of water and tell the prince carefully what happened along the way."
Su Hejing was still calm. He knew that Ma Yue was better than him. If he had not kept his word, the city of Chang'an would have been occupied by him long ago. However, it is somewhat unexpected that the young master and his granddaughter become a good match.
"Thank you Master!"
Canglong took the bowl, took a sip of water, and then recounted his knowledge and experiences during the trip.
While he was talking, Prince Fu's Mansion became busy again like a festival.
Soon, the news that Gui Yunzheng was returning to Chang'an spread throughout the military camp. Those who have never seen him are eager to see this legendary young hero, and those who have seen him are even more eager to know his new story.
Naturally, the people also reacted.
"The young man who defeated Tongguan, I heard, showed his might again in Jincheng and conquered tens of thousands of elite soldiers!"
"I heard that he seems to be King Cheng's grandson!"
"It seems that this time, the commotion in Chang'an is going to be big!"
…
As the saying goes, there is no airtight wall in the world. Everything seems to be obvious. But the best news is that all the winds are blowing in your favor.
