Now that he had speculated that this place might be a TV series or the splendid world of Geng Meixinghan, Xie Yu couldn't help but be excited.
Along the way, Xie Yu traveled very quickly, even though he had to eat and sleep in the open air without any delays.
When I first left the border county, someone learned from the gold and silversmith that Xie Yu had obtained a lot of gold and silver, and he was carrying it around with him.
Suddenly, he got jealous, and good people turned into robbers.
Xie Yu used their lives to teach them the principles of life, and paid for more than a dozen miscellaneous horses. After finding a nearby town to dispose of them at a low price, he got another piece of foreign wealth. Why bother!
Later, road bandits occasionally intercepted the road. A man dressed as a poor man gave them two arrows and fled in all directions.
Xie Yu didn't pursue him when he saw it, knowing that this was a special product of society and could not be killed.
After more than one day, Xie Yu finally arrived in the capital.
I checked the documents and looked at Xie Yu's large and small bags. Although he had some military rank, he was only a low-level officer in the end, and he had paid some high taxes for entering the city.
Xie Yu was too lazy to take a rest, waiting for Chen to take a good rest all the way!
However, I bought two meat patties and asked a few people who could complain about the hotel's accommodation, meal, and fodder fees.
Xie Yu comforted the three Longxi horses, which had lost a lot of weight, and secretly shouted: "It's not that I don't want to complain, it's really not easy living in Kyoto. Let's go, I will take you to eat free good food. I won't deal with it this time."
As the weather gets cooler, there is less grass and feed for the horses on the road, so Xie Yu has no choice but to lower their food standards.
No wonder the ancient Central Plains dynasty could not afford to support large-scale cavalry. The cost of fodder was a huge expense.
Compared with horses, people still prefer to raise cattle? Raise donkeys and mules.
Randomly "catch" a young man who is somewhat martial and elegantly dressed, and inquire about the residence of Major General Ling Buyi, the son of Lieutenant Guang Luxun and Marquis of Chengyang Ling Yi.
Now among the dignitaries in Kyoto, who doesn't know how much His Majesty the Emperor favors this adopted son, who originally looked down upon Xie Yu's savage attire.
When I heard that Xie Yu was an old subordinate of Ling Buyi, he not only left a name tag for Xie Yu, but also Cheng Song.
Xie Yu raised his eyebrows and secretly exclaimed: "How about such a coincidence."
He said: "Cheng Song? What is your relationship with the family of Cheng Shi, the Marquis of Xinfengguan?"
The noble young master obviously did not expect Xie Yu to ask such a question, which shows that this wild man does not keep a blind eye on matters in Kyoto.
"As expected, Ling Buyi's old subordinate."
Then he said: "That man is my father. If you have some free time, brother, you can come to Kaicheng Mansion to visit."
Xie Yu slightly cupped his hands and said, "I am Xie Yu. Thank you very much for the invitation."
Originally, Xie Yu wanted to ask the daughter-in-law of Guannei Marquis Cheng Shi, who should be Cheng Song's sister, if she was really called Cheng Shaoshang.
But then I thought, it would be too abrupt to ask this girl when we first met.
There is a long way to go, so there will definitely be opportunities.
So, following Cheng Song's instructions, the streets were deserted, with occasional sergeants patrolling the streets of the county. These should be the mansions of the high-ranking officials and nobles of the dynasty. Each one was built taller and more majestic.
Sure enough, it is the top zone that controls social resources.
After thinking about it, it would be great if I could buy a house in this place, but I don't know if the golden soldiers included in the package are enough.
In other words, if the gold cake is enough, the qualifications are not enough.
It seems that I will have to work hard to kill enemies in the future. I heard that when the military merits are enough, the emperor will reward him with a mansion.
By the way, I heard that this dynasty still places great emphasis on women. Not only can they be officials, but they also have the right to inherit.
Everyone also takes pride in seeking to marry women with the five surnames of Bohai Gao, Boling Cui, Qinghe Cui, Zhaojun Li, and Fan Yanglu, and to raise their family status.
Otherwise, let's have a soft meal and eat it hard.
But thinking about the slave scars on his body and his bald head with no hair or eyebrows, Xie Yu had no choice but to give up on this path.
Sighing…
"Ling Mansion..."
There was also a black-armored guard at the door, reminding Xie Yu that he was there.
After handing over the door sticker, the original gatekeeper thought that Xie Yu was just another one who wanted to make connections. Since Xie Yu was not on the right track, he was ready to press down on Xie Yu's door sticker first.
However, at this time, three black-armored guards who were out on business came out of the mansion.
One of them was in a daze when he saw Xie Yu, and then stared at it carefully.
Suddenly, he walked out.
This is too rare in the mansion of General Ling, who has a neat military appearance.
After all, Major General Ling Buyi manages the Ling Mansion according to the requirements of military law and discipline.
This Ling Mansion is just a small military camp.
Seeing that his teammates were so rude, the sergeant who was handing him a pass immediately wanted to stop him.
But it was already too late. The man shouted: "Yishi Xie, is it Yoshie Xie? You have come to the capital too. That's great, that's great."
Xie Yu hesitated and said: "You are!"
This person: "Have you forgotten, Mr. Xie, that you saved my life twice on the grassland, once with a barbarian arrow? If you hadn't kicked me, I would have been gone!"
"Another time, after I was stabbed, if you hadn't been a skilled doctor and used sheep intestines to make threads to sew me up, I might have suffered a puncture in my intestines."
Xie Yu: "Oh, my feelings are yours. Seeing that you look good, I feel relieved."
Xie Yu was in a daze, remembering that there was this person, but it was really a dangerous war at that time, and he was always being surrounded by enemies. There was no tomorrow for today.
In fact, Xie Yu couldn't confirm that he could survive. He remembered the names of a few people, and he should not be among them.
This person: "By the way, Xie Yishi, why are you coming to Ling Mansion today?"
Xie Yu: "The Major General wrote me a letter, and the Taiwei Mansion asked me to return to the capital to report on my duties, so I'm here now."
"A letter from the Major General? Taiwei's Mansion..."
"That's great, Xie Yishi, I think we can really work together in the future."
Xie Yu also smiled and said: "I have a good relationship and it is an honor for me to serve the Major General. I think if the Major General hadn't saved me from danger at that time, I might have died quietly as a slave!"
Unexpectedly, Xie Yu actually said that he had been a slave.
The other sergeants looked at Xie Yu with complicated eyes for a moment.
There is sympathy, ridicule, and contempt.
This man really admired Xie Yu's openness and directly handed over his hand: "Xie Yishi, I would like to be your messenger. Please wait for me for a while."
After saying that, he ran towards the Ling Mansion.
After a while, Lieutenant General Liang Qiufei walked out happily.
Seeing Xie Yu, she even smiled and said, "Xie Yu, you're here earlier than expected."
Then, he noticed Xie Yu's dusty career.
"What are you doing, idiot? Bring Xie Yu and his brothers to the house."
"Brother Xie not only saved me three times, but also saved a major general. I don't dare to neglect him."
Hearing what Deputy General Liang Qiufei said, other sergeants came over to help.
Thank you, I don't mean to use these sergeants in vain, but to be with them.
Mainly gold cakes and gold cakes.
It's not that Xie Yu doesn't trust people, money and silk can move people's hearts, but if he is a close brother, his plans involve aspects...
The human heart cannot be tested.
Drinking horse feed is worthy of the Major General's Mansion. This fine feed is definitely prepared for war horses.
The horse enjoyed the meal.
Liang Qiufei naturally knew horses. Looking at the three gluttonous and thinned horses, he couldn't help but said: "Xie Yu, you are abusing them. They are hungry. You don't even have money for horse feed." Bar!"
"I remember that the village chief's salary is two hundred dan. Are you getting married?"
Xie Yu: "It's better to be hungry. I'm walking alone all the way. They are hungry and thin, so the journey will be safe!"
Liang Qiufei: "Really?"
"Forget it, after the horses eat, people also need to eat. I asked the gang leader to arrange some food for you. After you eat, wash up well so that you can meet the Major General."
"This is in the capital, not on the grassland. The Major General is a strict man, you should know that."
Xie Yu: "I understand."
However, after eating a lot and freshening up.
I changed into a set I bought at a clothing store on the road. It was a second-hand piece of clothing that fit people from Guan Nei.
After all, the scenery in the capital is different from that at the border, so you should pay attention.
However, no one came to inform Xie Yu.
Xie Yu woke up and washed up again. After being tired for many days, he came to the house. He wrapped himself up and fell asleep on the small couch.
Xie Yu was very surprised when one of them was woken up by someone. He didn't expect it to fall asleep like that.
And being so close to someone, I don’t know, if..., I don’t know how I died.
Or maybe the person coming doesn’t have murderous intent!
Turning around, it was Liang Qiufei who was carrying the meal.
He looked apologetic and said, "Thank you, brother, let's eat something first. I'm sorry, the major general has something to do in the afternoon and was delayed. I just found time, so you can eat something to cushion your stomach."
Xie Yu: "Thank you very much."
I had a good sleep this time, and I was really hungry.
A puff of wind curls into residual clouds, a touch of lips.
Xie Yu followed Liang Qiufei out of the small room.
There are constant patrols of sergeants passing through, like a military camp in the Lingfu courtyard.
Xie Yu, a study style room.
Just then, he saw Ling Buyi staring at a map hanging on the wall, making gestures in his hands, as if planning something, and silently muttering: "Prince Xiao, Prince Xiao..."
The finger was indeed drawn towards the southwest of the capital: "Sichuan... Fan Chang..."
It seemed like he had figured something out, but he wasn't sure yet.
Seeing that Major General Ling Buyi was deep in thought, Xie Yu did not interrupt and waited for a while.
Soon, Ling Buyi turned around.
There is no embarrassment like those on the grassland. This is what a handsome, loyal young general with cold eyes should look like.
The two people's eyes met, and suddenly a light flashed in the eyes of Major General Ling Buji, as if he had an idea.
He took it casually and threw a book on the bookshelf to Xie Yu.
Xie Yu spread it out and saw that it was a transfer letter from the Taiwei Mansion, and he was appointed as the commander of the Black Armor Army of the Zuoqi Camp of the Yulin Guards.
There is also a seal from the Taiwei Mansion on it, which seems to have become a fact.
He immediately bowed down and said, "Xie Yu, the commander of the Black Armored Army, has met the military leader."
Major General Ling Buyi made a gesture of invitation, and Xie Yu took advantage of the situation and stood up.
Ling Buyi: "Xie Yishi, Xie Brother, no, it's time to be Xie Tuen Chief."
"You have worked hard on your journey. You should have been promoted to a military marquis based on your achievements. However, after all, your official joining the army was too short. Although you have killed enemies and made achievements, there is nothing to say."
"Although I, the general, have given me some support, those drunkards and ricebags don't agree with me."
"They have been using your background and origins as an excuse, so they can only transfer you first and then return you to the post of village chief."
Xie Yu quickly answered: "Thank you, Major General, for your concern. I understand that there is a big difference in rank between the commander of the county here and the commander of the imperial army in the capital."
"What's more, I am the commander of the Yulin Army who protects His Majesty. This dynasty uses imperial power and family to rule the world, and attaches great importance to family character and origin. I already feel lucky."
Major General Ling Buyi nodded and said: "This is indeed the case, but His Majesty is different now. He has no prejudice against the Han people. As long as he has the ability, His Majesty will promote him."
Xie Yu: "Young General, I was born a slave, so I can't even be considered a Han Clan!"
Ling Buyi smiled: "Your background is indeed lower, but I know your abilities from having experienced grassland wars."
"There is an opportunity right now. I don't know if you are willing. If you do well, I will be promoted and appointed again. I think the opposition will not be so loud."
Xie Yu: "How dare you disobey me."
Major General Ling Buyi said: "Okay, you have had a hard journey, go down and repair yourself first, and let Liang Qiufei take you around the capital in the past two days."
"From now on, it's time to live in this capital permanently."
Xie Yu: "Permanent residence? Speaking of permanent residence, my subordinate intends to buy a property in Kyoto and treat it as his own property. It's just a subordinate's status..."
Major General: "You go down and rest first. When you make new achievements, I will guarantee it for you. However, the housing prices in the capital are not cheap, so you should be mentally prepared."
Xie Yu said happily: "My subordinates have paid a lot of gold goods from the grassland, and they have been cast into gold cakes, which can be used as funds to buy a house."
Major General: "You, okay, later, you can give those gold cakes to the chief bookkeeper of the mansion, and the real estate matter will be taken care of for you."
It is said that Major General Ling Buyi was taught by the current Empress Xuan since he was a child, and also had the friendship of fighting side by side on the grassland.
Xie Yu believed that he would not covet the few gold cakes he had, and would arrange a good position for himself to retain his loyalty.
After Xie Yu resigned, Major General Ling Buyi turned around again and inspected the map.
At the same time, I also secretly thought that Xie Yu came at the right time and brought luck along the way.
Since the ordnance case is related to Xiao Shi and his son, and they were in the fiefdom and capital of Shu during this period.
Suddenly it became unstable, and various robberies occurred frequently.
Obviously, with his sense of war, this was not normal.
In this case, why take the initiative to clean it up?
As for this small-scale fierce battle to grab credit, no one does it better than Xie Yu.
Here, Xie Yu was assured that after sleeping soundly all night, he was pulled up by Liang Qiufei, who had changed into casual clothes, to go shopping.
In fact, while walking, I explained to Xie Yu the layout of the capital, its customs and customs.
He was still in various aristocratic families with various backgrounds, so Xie Yu must not be offended, especially since Emperor Wen, although he was also of the dynasty's blood, was a remote and declining branch after all.
In addition, he himself attached great importance to feelings and was loyal to others. After winning the throne, he knighted many of his neighbors.
His neighbors were originally poor families, but once they became prosperous...
I remember that in later generations, there was a rich second generation who drove a luxury car and killed a passerby during registration. I guess it was more like this!
It's just that people with noble titles are more able to bear the blame. I heard that in this dynasty, there were fines and nobles to bear the blame.
Xie Yu understood that he really couldn't afford to offend these people at the moment, so he had better look at them first and wait until he became familiar with the situation.
Keep a low profile now and try not to cause any trouble to Major General Ling Busuo.
Now, he is favored by His Majesty the Emperor, and everyone is jealous and wants to cause trouble for him!
Although the two of them are physically strong, they are indeed a little tired from walking all the way, and they want to drink tea in a teahouse first to quench their thirst.
Suddenly, Liang Qiufei saw a carriage and immediately became respectful. After thinking about it, he said to Xie Yu: "The horse carriage belongs to the young general's father, Marquis Chengyang. It's just that the young general has been raised in the palace since he was a child and has not been very close to him."
