Chapter 69 Entering the City

Style: Historical Author: thunder runner stephenWords: 2462Update Time: 24/01/12 20:08:14
The closest ones to the palace are Jiahui Gate and Security Water Gate.

Jiahui Gate is close to the Qiantang River, but it is far away from the Three Provinces and Six Ministries... mainly because it is too far from the Privy Council and Zongzheng Temple, and everyone is taking the dry road, and the security water gate cannot be reached.

Therefore, Yue Jiajun chose to enter the city from Xinmenmen. Although Xinmenmen was far away from the bustling city, it was Lin'an after all, and there were bound to be many vendors along the way.

However, this is already their best choice at the moment.

For the rest, I just hope that the princess can take it easy. When she enters the palace and meets her brother, she will have everything she wants.

But don't want to...

Maybe the news from Xiuzhou spread, or maybe someone else recognized him.

Anyway, when they were still more than ten miles away from Lin'an, the Yue Family Army was already surrounded.

Of course, it's not anyone else, it's all common people who came from everywhere after hearing the news.

Everyone was surrounding them, just two or three at first, but by the time they got closer and closer to Lin'an, there were already four to five hundred people.

"General Yue! Well done! When can we fight back again?"

Lao Wang slapped Ji Wu on the head:

"Aren't you blind? Which general is following me? The one in the lead is Marshal Yue!"

"But that person..."

Ji Wu looked at Niu Gao, whose body shape and figure perfectly matched his imagination of Yue Fei's appearance.

If this person starts a fight with the legendary nine-foot-tall Wanyan Wushu, it is possible. As for the leader...

No matter how you look at it, it looks a bit like the masters in the temple.

"Marshal Yue, Marshal Yue..."

An old man was holding a crutch... It was much harder for him to follow, but he still managed to follow. Finally, he reached the front and quickly raised his head and asked:

"Marshal Yue, I heard that you have reached Kaifeng? Then can I return to Xuzhou?"

Yue Fei reined in the reins and asked the horse to walk slower: "Old man, are you from Xuzhou?"

"I'm from Xuzhou, and the tea shop outside Xuzhou North City belongs to my family..." The old man was a little cautious, "Can Marshal Yue see that tea shop? I don't know who it belongs to now?"

"At your age, you should live in Lin'an... Xuzhou, we have been there."

"Hehe..." The old man smiled, "My eldest son's family and my son-in-law's family are all in Xuzhou! I want to go, I want to go."

"Then it's time for them to come see you, why do you worry so much!"

The old man shook his head: "They can't see anymore. I piled the twelve graves behind the tea shop for them. My eldest grandson and granddaughter are all there. I can go see them!"

"Thanks to Marshal Yue, thanks to Marshal Yue!"

He stopped and kept bowing to Yue Fei... No matter how slowly the horse walked, he was still left behind.

When retreating south from Zhuxian Town, he saw many similar scenes along the way. Yue Fei thought he was used to it.

But when he experienced it again... he closed his eyes and endured it for a long time before suppressing his emotions.

The officials...we must fight!

The group of people finally breathed a sigh of relief when they could see the three big words "NEW OPEN".

In any case, Lin'an has finally arrived.

But when I entered the city, I got stuck.

Niu Gao was very dissatisfied. He pointed to the commander's flag erected behind him and said, "Do you know the characters? We are soldiers of the Yue Family Army! This is Marshal Yue!"

The guard quickly confessed, but still refused to let him go:

"Yue Shaobao has mercy. Something big happened in the city last night. This is really a helpless move."

There was no other way, so Zhao Mi issued a death order.

Yue Fei said to Niu Gao: "Business matters must be dealt with, don't say too much."

After saying that, he asked the guard again: "But you don't know what the big deal is?"

The guard looked around and said: "Eleven ministers...were killed! Even the Minister of Rites was not spared!"

Yue Fei was shocked... It was really a big deal, a big deal!

It was said that they were checking, but compared to checking other people, the people in the Infantry Division were already much more relaxed. They took a casual look and were ready to let him go.

"Marshal Han brought only five vehicles of military personnel. We were already extremely surprised. We did not expect that Yue Shaobao came all the way and only brought one vehicle with him."

This was meant to be flattering. After all, the journey cost a lot of money and they all had to eat public food. Yue Fei could be regarded as incorruptible... so incorruptible that he was a bit unorthodox.

Others may just laugh, but who is in the car?

She is the late emperor’s daughter, the emperor’s sister!

Yue Fei smiled and said: "But that's not the case. The officials are rushing me. My family is behind me. This person in the carriage..."

After a pause, thinking that it would be known sooner or later anyway, he explained: "She is Princess Roufu. Don't talk nonsense, so as not to ruin the princess's reputation."

It's okay if he didn't say it. As soon as he said this, the leader of the guard seemed to be a different person and shouted:

"Close the door! Close the door!"

Then he said to others: "Quickly go and inform Marshal Zhao... people are here!"

His change of expression only happened in a moment. Not to mention Niu Gao and Wang Gui's confused look, Yue Fei was also briefly confused.

He waited until the city gate was really closed before he asked:

"What... does this mean?"

The man hesitated for a long time. If it wasn't the Yue Family Army who sent him, they would have drawn their swords by now.

Now like this, Yue Feitian has lost his face.

"Don't blame me, Young Bao. Wait for the envoy from the capital of Zhao to come and explain all the reasons to you personally."

And after all, how could they know what Zhao Mi wanted to do.

Everything is just following orders.

Niu Gao heard clearly from the side and was extremely angry: "We came from Xiangyang, but now we are turned away! What a good envoy of Zhao! What a good infantry division!"

"When I get in front of the official, I'll ask him clearly!"

The guard sighed, but had no other choice.

I just hope that my commander will come faster. If it takes a long time... they can't always prevent the Yue family's army from entering the city.

Fortunately, Zhao Mi even left the guards today, so he was waiting for this job.

After receiving the news, he immediately patted the horse and came... He was a little impatient, and even the skin on the horse's butt was broken by him with his whip.

"Pengju is safe and sound!"

While he was still on the horse, he had already begun to say hello loudly. When he got out of the city gate, he reined in his horse and stopped, stirring up dust more than ten feet high.

Seeing so many people following Yue Fei, Zhao Mi sighed secretly:

If there were only a few people, I might still be able to survive if I did this, but with so many people watching...

Yang Yizhong is a loser!

"Pengju..."

Yue Fei followed him, now dismounted.

When Yue Fei got off his horse, everyone in the Yue Family Army also dismounted.

The people who followed didn't know what was going on and just looked at everything in confusion.

"Dad, when did our Infantry Division stop dealing with the Yue Family Army? Why didn't I know?"

What Ji Wu asked was what Lao Wangtou was thinking about. Since he had a son-in-law named "Xin Ciying", he is now like a god in front of Ji Wu, knowing everything.

Now I just thought about it for a while and then expressed my thoughts:

"I think it's Commander Zhao who came to ask Marshal Yue for the money to enter the city... Grandma, did you see that with Marshal Yue's status, Commander Zhao has to come in person to ask for money!"

"This is called the gap, you know?!"

Without thinking carefully about Lao Wangtou's view of judging others by oneself, Ji Wu just sighed:

"I wonder how big an official our brother-in-law will be when he comes to the city to ask for money!"

On the other side, Yue Fei cupped his fists towards Zhao Mi: "Uncle Wei, what do you mean?"

Zhao Mi looked at the carriage behind him and saw a woman sticking her head out from the side...

"Pengju will hand over the princess to me, and you will naturally be able to enter the city."
