After 10 years of sharpening my sword, I can finally wave

After all, let's not talk about those who came with Bai Li, the soldiers sent by the Marquis of Zhenbei are not easy to mess with at first glance.The imperial court alone has already cleaned up the road, either overtly or secretly.During the itinerary, there were people from the Department of Arch Guards or the Department of Huangcheng secretly guarding the left and right.

It would be a strange thing if someone who was not a good or bad person came out again.

As a feudal vassal with the same rest as the country, there are naturally houses and manpower left in the capital, so when we get the news that the second son of the lord's family is coming, we naturally send people to observe the main roads around the capital early. , ready to welcome anytime.

So when Bai Li and his party saw Lili at the gate of the city again, they saw a steward of the Marquis Mansion leading his men and horses to greet him directly. After identifying himself, he came to Bai Li and greeted him respectfully.

Seeing someone come to welcome Bai Li and escort Bai Li all the way, Qiu Ju, who has to always consider Bai Li's safety, is naturally happy, so after a simple greeting from Bai Li's side and the manager, he smiled at the side He opened his mouth and said: "Since the Second Young Master is being picked up here, then the Miscellaneous Family will not bother you. It happens that Your Majesty is still waiting for the Miscellaneous Family to reply, so the Miscellaneous Family will not accompany you first. The Second Young Master only needs to reply and wait for His Majesty's call." .”

"Thank you, Eunuch, to see you off all the way," Bai Li covered his mouth with a brocade handkerchief and coughed a few times, then waved his hands.Bai Si, who was behind him, immediately took a step forward when he heard the words, presented a box that Bai Li had prepared a long time ago, and then said: "I have been taken care of by my father-in-law on this journey, and I can't repay you. I heard that my father-in-law Such a beautiful jade, such a mere courtesy is not a respect, but I hope my father-in-law will not take it too lightly."

"This...how can this be done?" Qiu Ju glanced at the flawless jade bi that shone with a faint halo in the opened brocade box, a hint of greed flashed unconsciously in his eyes, and he wanted to refuse but greeted him. : "The miscellaneous family didn't do anything, how can this be a great gift from the second son."

"It's right, it's right," Bai Li coughed a few times again, showing that he was a patient with his actions all the time, and then said: "It's still some time before the Queen Mother's birthday, and Bai Li may still be here in Beijing." Stayed for a long time. In the future, most of them will need the care of Eunuch Qiu, a celebrity in front of His Majesty, and I just hope that when the time comes... Eunuch just don't want to make troubles."

"Hahahaha, how could it be?" Qiu Ju calmly looked at the little eunuch who followed him, put away the beautiful jade, and then said enthusiastically: "When the miscellaneous family first met the second son, they felt close. Like the second son Don’t give up, but you can come and walk around often, the Zajia’s side will definitely welcome you and wait for you at any time.”

"Then it's settled, Bai Li will definitely trouble you," Bai Li said with a smile on his hands.

"Then our family is waiting for you at any time."

……

Seeing Qiu Ju's group get on the carriage and headed away towards the city gate, the spring-like smile on Bai Li's face slowly restrained himself.Covering his mouth with a brocade handkerchief and coughing a few times, he turned to the steward in the capital who was waiting on the side, "Okay, let's go back to the mansion, I'm afraid we'll be staying for a while this time."

"Yes, Second Young Master." Hearing this, the steward naturally didn't dare to be negligent, and hurriedly arranged for Bai Li to get on the carriage, and then led someone to lead the way towards the city gate.

But at this time, on the other side, Qiu Ju, who was out of Bai Li's sight, got on the frame and opened the brocade box Bai Li had given him.After calmly looking at the priceless piece of jade, he closed the brocade box and threw it aside like trash.The corners of the mouth were slightly raised, full of sarcasm.

At the same time, the carriage representing the Zhenbeihou Mansion accompanied by Bai Li entered the gate of the capital.Soon, the news that the Second Young Master Zhenbei had arrived spread throughout the capital by those who had been waiting at the city gate for a long time.

Zhenxi was waiting in the mansion in the capital, two young men in luxurious clothes were playing chess in a gazebo of the mansion squadron, black and white were intertwined on the chessboard, obviously it was indistinguishable to kill.

And it was at this time that a servant appeared and quickly came to the two of them and said: "My lord, according to the news from the gate of the city, that Mr. Bai has already entered the capital, and is now heading to the capital. Zhenbeihou Mansion."

"It's finally here," one of the young men in a bright red brocade robe first put down the chess pieces in his hands, and said with a light smile, "It really made us wait."

"He's different from us," another young man in black clothes said lightly, "He's delicate and frail, so it's impossible for us to be able to travel without hindrance like us."

"That's right, as the saying goes, it's a blessing in disguise, but how can you know it's not a blessing? It's good to have this disease sometimes." After joking, the young man in the red robe tapped the chessboard and said, "Should we still play?"

"Let's be like this today," the young man in Xuanyi certainly understood what the other party meant, so he put down the chess piece very simply and said, "The princes of the four towns are united, and now there are only three left, so we must watch and help each other. It's all here, if we don't go to see him immediately, it would be too impolite. When the news is heard by our father, I'm afraid we will be punished when we go back."

"Then let's go," the red-robed young man stood up, and said calmly, "There are some things that need to be communicated earlier."

Not to mention, the subsequent actions of the two young nobles on the side of the Zhenxi Hou Mansion, and the Changsun Mansion on the other side.Changsun Wuji and Changsun Wugou also got the news of Bai Li's arrival.Then after the screen retreated left and right, Changsun Wugou took the lead and said: "Brother, people are here, how is your arrangement going?"

"It's already been arranged," Changsun Wuji said while holding the tea in his cup expressionlessly, "Just wait for the people from Jingzhao Mansion to come to the door tomorrow, and the show will begin."

"Where are the hands and tails?" Changsun Wugou continued to ask: "Have you collected all of them? This is not the time for benevolent women."

"...Of course," Changsun Wuji couldn't help but raised his head, seeing that the once gentle and virtuous sister, Lan Zhihui's heart, became so cold, treating human life as nothing.I couldn't help but feel pain in my heart, and it took a long time before I said: "Brother is doing business, don't worry."

"That's good. If that's the case, we'll have to wait until tomorrow," Changsun Wugou nodded and murmured coldly, "I've never been so looking forward to tomorrow's arrival!"

Chapter 70 Arriving in Beijing Trivia

In the imperial city, in the Xuanzheng Palace.

The emperor was receiving the prince of the Imperial City Department, and it was at this time that Qiuju, who had gone to Zhenbeihou to preach the decree, returned, and after listening to the announcement, the emperor directly summoned him into the palace.

"How is it?" Although he had already received the detailed report of Qiu Ju's trip, the emperor obviously wanted to hear Qiu Ju's answer with his own ears, so after Qiu Ju kowtowed and greeted him, he spoke first: "Is the trip going well?"

"Go back to Your Majesty, and thanks to His Majesty, you will be safe and sound on the journey," Qiu Ju replied hastily.

"Well," the emperor continued with a slight nod of his head, "how is the second son of the Marquis of Zhenbei?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, you can be regarded as a wonderful person," Qiu Ju said, and opened the Jinhe gift given to him in front of the emperor, and said with a smile: "I still know that this old slave is so beautiful. And specially gave the old slave a priceless jade bi."

"Oh?" The emperor calmly glanced at the priceless and flawless beautiful jade in the box, and said with a light smile, "It seems that the second son thinks highly of you, you can inquire about such things as beautiful jade, then From now on...you have to get close to that."

As the emperor's close servant, every move is of great importance.Things like liking should at least not be something that ordinary people can inquire about through normal means, so it's no wonder the emperor speaks like this.

"Zunzhi," Qiu Ju heard the elegant meaning of the words, and quickly responded, "This old slave will definitely get closer to him in the future...closer."

"Well," Tianzi nodded calmly, and continued, "Zhenbei Army, why don't you go see it this time, how about it?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, he is indeed a leader in the world's army," Qiu Ju quickly replied, "But...it's a pity that he didn't accept Wang Hua, and he only knew Zhenbeihou, but not His Majesty. It's really a pity."

"No surprise, there is a saying that it is better for the county magistrate to take care of it now. They eat the food of the Bai family, and of course they want to work for the Bai family." After the emperor smiled lightly, he murmured: It is precisely because of this that the land of the princes must be taken back as soon as possible, the longer it is delayed... the more troublesome it will be!"

"By the way," seemed to think of something, after a long silence, the emperor spoke again, turned his head and said to the prince beside him: "I remember that the two younger generations of the eldest grandson's family and my emperor's son seemed to be worried about our second son. Has the young master prepared some gifts?"

"Return to Your Majesty, that's right," the prince quickly replied. .

The Son of Heaven picked up from a pile of memorials at the side, flipped through the memorial that Wang Gonggong submitted before, and said with a light smile: "The method is really immature, no wonder, I and the eldest grandson really protected them. That's great. I don't know how many people died in my hands at my age and my eldest grandson's."

"Then...Your Majesty, why don't I...send someone to stop them?" The prince asked carefully.

"No need, let them beat and beat this second young master." The emperor chuckled lightly and said, "People around me dare to get close to him. If you don't beat him, I'm afraid he will go to heaven in a few days."

"Yes," the prince replied quickly.

"By the way, help him deal with it at the end of the hand." The emperor glanced at the memorabilia in his hand again, and then said lightly: "The eldest grandson is loyal to the country, and I can't look at his children because of such a trivial matter. trap."

"Yes!"

It seems that there are other things to deal with, so the emperor didn't stay with the prince, and Qiu Ju also wanted to wash off the dust on his body.So soon, only the emperor and the eunuch who waited on him were left in the Xuanzheng Hall.

"It's too tender, and it's too urgent," the emperor continued to look at the melody in his hand and murmured, "Eldest grandson, your pair of sons and daughters... still need to be honed."

On the other side, Qiu Juzai left the Xuanzheng Hall and returned to his own residence. After bathing and cleansing himself, he brought the beautiful jade that Bai Li had sent to him again, smiled lightly, and stuffed it to his side to take responsibility. In the hand of a young eunuch who was serving, he said lightly: "I give it to you, be careful not to damage it, the second young master Bai's kindness is worth a lot of money."

"Yes, thank godfather for the gift."

Not to mention these little things in the palace, on the other side, Bai Li finally came to the mansion that Zhenbei Hou did not buy in the capital, and after washing up the dust, he called Bai Er who had been waiting in the Hou's mansion for a long time. , Asked about what he explained before.

And Bai Er is worthy of being one of the few Bai Li who is able to take charge on his own. He has done all the things Bai Li asked in such a short period of time, and Bai Li can't help but nod in praise.

"Okay, that's it." Bai Li seemed to have remembered something, and continued: "By the way, I heard you mentioned earlier that some people seem to have prepared gifts for me."

"Yes, my lord," Bai Er replied, "It's a coincidence that ours happened to be among the people they arranged, so..."

"It's a coincidence," Bai Li said with a light smile, "Who's here?"

"Master Hui," Bai Er said, "It's the late Da Xingsi, grandson Wuji, son of the eldest grandson Yan, and the seventh prince of today's son, Zhao Heng."

"The prince is involved," Bai Li raised his eyebrows and said, "Then you have to watch this play, you have to watch it."
