"Everyone, go down." Jiang Cong felt weak all over and was already a little numb to the bad news.
"Your Majesty, I have one more question," Zhang Zhiren said.
"Say it."
"Xiao Xue's refusal to marry is all the fault of Wei Chen's negligence. Wei Chen has resigned from the post of Minister of the Ministry of War to fight on the battlefield as a crime. I hope Your Majesty will give you permission."
"allow!"
"In addition, Xu Qinghan's neglect of discipline has brought shame to the Zhang and Xiao families. I hope Your Majesty will expel him from the capital!" Zhang Zhiren said.
Jiang Cong said angrily: "Will you negotiate terms with me now? Okay, I promise you, Taicheng!"
"The old minister is here."
"Immediately remove Xu Qinghan from his position as a doctor in the Ministry of Industry and demote him to Ganzhou as a county magistrate. No, county magistrate, Zhang Zhiren, are you satisfied with this?" Jiang Cong asked.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zhang Zhiren thanked him. Xu Qinghan had just been released. Now the enemies and friends of the Zhang and Xiao families are unknown. If he leads the troops out again, it is estimated that the stupid son-in-law will be in trouble again, so he proposed to demote Xu Qinghan.
The proposal is an explanation to the Xiao family. Of course, this explanation is far from enough. It is not known how much price will be paid to make up for Xiaoxue's reckless behavior.
Seeing the three ministers kneeling down to resign, He Qizhou, who was still kneeling, said anxiously: "Your Majesty, the guilty minister is willing to join Lord Zhang in the crusade against the rebels."
Jiang Cong waved his hand and said: "It stinks! Go away. If you win, I will forgive you!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
…
"Thanks."
"No, you're welcome!" The Ouchi guard in underwear at the palace gate frowned and took the official uniform that He Qizhou had returned. He was neither crying nor laughing. He really didn't want to put on that sour and smelly robe.
"Master Zhang, I will accompany you to set off." He Qizhou followed to the gate of the Privy Council.
"Listen, I'll set off as soon as I finish drafting the military orders. You go to Xiaoxue's house tonight to clean up and have a good sleep, and go with Lu Zhenyao and the others tomorrow! The rebels won't surrender just because you arrived a day earlier.
" Zhang Zhiren said.
"I, is it inconvenient for me to live in Xiaoxue's house?" He Qizhou asked with a shy face.
"What do you think? You guys have completely humiliated my old face. Do I still care about what others think? Li Ruogu should wait outside the palace gate. You ask him to send someone to take you there, and then ask him to go back and pack your things immediately.
Bring all the experts in the palace and set off with me in an hour!"
"Oh." Thinking that most of Xiaoxue would also go west, He Qizhou felt that one day's delay would not be a big problem, but it was just that his eyes seemed unable to open all of a sudden.
…
Li Ruogu was not the only one waiting outside the palace gate. There were also many Tianshan sect disciples, including Wu Erhan, who wanted to go back for revenge and rebellion. Zhang Mufeng was also waiting outside. This was specially taken care of by Xu Muxue.
Zhang Mufeng was actually very happy to see a trace of sadness on his sister's frozen face.
Of course, it is a great joy for He Qizhou to come back alive. Therefore, despite the guy on his back, waves of stench penetrated his nostrils; swarms of flies surrounded him; and the ups and downs of snoring shook his head.
His head was swollen, but Zhang Mufeng was still very happy. He picked up the fallen guy from the entrance of the palace and never put him down.
"The internal injuries are not getting better. The new injuries are even more serious. I can't save my governor's veins. Fortunately, my energy is strong. It's best to wake him up and take some medicine later." Mo Lan followed him all the way to the palace after leaving the Xiao Mansion, and once again replaced him.
He Qizhou checked his pulse, but the situation was still not good.
"Well, I still need to take a shower." Zhang Mufeng said.
"Quick, quick!" He Qizhou on his back suddenly shouted twice.
Zhang Mufeng said: "It's already running very fast!"
"Eight hundred miles urgent!" After He Qizhou finished talking in his sleep, he snored again.
…
On June 27th, Kuocheng on the outskirts of Beijing was extremely busy. The Military Academy and the Four Schools began to select people in the early morning. Because of the urgent time, this time only the martial arts was used as the criterion instead of the academic year. Therefore, many of the Four Schools
All freshmen from Class A and Class B enthusiastically signed up, and together with the masters sent by the armament hall, the number of five hundred was quickly filled up, and most of them had the strength of three or more lines.
The most scarce thing was horses. The total number of horses available in the Arms Hall and various schools was only about 300. In the end, 200 spare horses were transferred from the West Camp of the Royal Guards. Half of them were given to the Wuchang Division.
Shi Lan sent one of his men from Qianhu to draw one hundred of the best from the capital to go with the students from the Armed Forces Hall and the four schools. The remaining four hundred would be collected when passing through Chang'an, Lanzhou and other big cities.
It was already past noon when He Qizhou woke up. Sitting next to the bed was Xu Mu, whose eyes were red and swollen but smiling.
"I've shaken you for a long time, get up quickly, we are about to set off." Xu Mu said softly.
"What time is it?" Seeing the strong sunlight outside the window, He Qizhou couldn't help but jump out of bed when he thought about setting off today.
"Ah!" Xu Mu screamed, and it turned out that the thin blanket was lifted up, and He Qizhou was only wearing a pair of underwear. He hurriedly escaped from the house, shouting as he ran: "It's just after noon, give you a moment, we will set off immediately.
"
Only then did He Qizhou remember that he arrived at the Xu Mansion yesterday evening and took Mo Lan's medicine. After taking a bath, he didn't even have the strength to pour water. He only wore a pair of underwear and fell asleep. The room belonged to Zhang Mufeng, and he didn't know it.
Where did that guy sleep? There were actually several guests staying in the small Xu family.
The bathtub in the room was gone, and a change of underwear and outerwear was hanging on the hanger. The unicorn armor had been washed and dried, and was neatly stacked on the table. There were also daggers and other items that he carried on it.
There was also an extra baggage, which contained a change of clothes and socks, and the Frost-defying Sword originally left at Xiaoxue's house was also placed next to it.
He Qizhou put on his clothes. He was just the right size, but a little too short. They should be Zhang Mufeng's clothes. After hurriedly washing up, he packed his things and went out quickly. He saw many people waiting in the backyard: Xu Qinghan's family of five, Li Jichen
, Moran, took another look and saw the snow dragon horse that he had not seen for a long time.
Xue Longma also discovered He Qizhou, and suddenly neighed, no longer enjoying Xiao Ping's touch, and rushed towards He Qi Zhou, which frightened Xiao Ping so much that he screamed strangely, and cursed unwillingly: "You heartless thing!"
The snow dragon horse raised in the Xu Mansion originally only recognized Xiaoxue. Xiao Ping finally spent two or three months getting to know it. Unexpectedly, when she saw her owner, she immediately turned against him and stopped recognizing him.
"Zhongxue, you have become whiter and fatter!" He Qizhou stroked the horse's cheek happily and found that the green color on this guy's body had become lighter, the white spots were much larger, and he looked more like a white horse, and his physique
Also stronger and stronger.
"Hey Qizhou, have you got everything? Let's go now." Xu Qinghan said. Although he received a degrading imperial edict early in the morning and was strictly ordered to leave the capital that day, his heart was extremely happy. His daughter's
Marriage is more like a transaction. These days, the pain in the hearts of the couple is not necessarily half less than that of Xu Muxue. Although there are still many headaches now, their daughter is happy, and their mood will naturally be better.
The two-horse carriage outside the gate belongs to Zhang Zhiren's house. Xu Qinghan, his wife and Xiao Ping are sitting in it. The others each prepare a horse and go to the west gate of the outer gate. There will be nearly a thousand people gathered there, and the deputy of the Military Preparatory Hall will offer wine.
Lu Zhenyao led the team, and it was determined that they would set off at the wrong time.
Last night, the post cavalry sent by the Privy Council was the first to take action. Zhang Zhiren took the supervisory army sent from the palace and Li Ruogu and other Tianshan sect students to take the first step. Because there was an urgent need to recruit people, the time for the large group of people to set off today was postponed.
It's late afternoon.
Xu Mu and He Qizhou walked quickly side by side on the street in front of the house. It seemed that all the passers-by were pointing at the group of people walking out of the Xu Mansion. Within half a day, the news about last night's wedding banquet had spread throughout the city, and
It has become the best talking point for everyone from the palace to the common people.
Xu Mu was not satisfied with this and said: "There are two bamboo tubes in the snow dragon horse's backpack. Inside is boiled medicinal porridge. It is very thin. You can drink it while walking." If it was not about to set off, Xu Mu would have thought.
Let He Qizhou sleep a little longer.
"I'm really starving to death." He Qizhou took out the bamboo tube, pulled out the stopper, took two sips and said, "This is too thin, it won't satisfy my hunger."
"Professor Mo said that you haven't eaten for several days, so you can't eat much today, and you can only eat thin food. Originally, I wanted you to stay in the capital to recuperate for a few more days, but I know that you are a monkey butt and can't sit still, so
I still decided to let you go together." Xu Mu said.
"I'm strong, it's okay!" He Qizhou drank up a tube of two kilograms of medicinal porridge in one sip.
Moran, who was walking in front of the two of them, turned back and said angrily: "We won't stay for more than two hours a day, so you go to sleep in the car whenever you have the chance. Did you hear that?"
"How?" He Qizhou asked.
"If that doesn't work, go back to Shiqu Town and work as a postman!" Moran said angrily.
"If you don't take a good rest, the Du Meridian will be dead!" Li Jichen interjected: "You have had seven meridians running together since you were a child, but only the Du Meridian has never been touched. These injuries are also the most serious for the Du Meridian. You must know that in our practice
Those who have great merits value the Du Vein the most, so if you want to go further, stop trying to be brave!"
"Did you hear that?" Xu Mu said angrily.
"I heard. Are you going too, Mr. Li?" In fact, He Qizhou had something to eat and now wants to sleep.
"Master was worried that something happened to us, so he had to go to Tuyuhun. The emperor was very happy and even rewarded us with a horse. Hey, tell me how you escaped from danger and why it took you so long to come back?" Xu Mu asked.
"Shi Lan also sent someone to inquire last night. He said that it was a serious case ordered by the emperor and that he needed to hear your explanation. However, he was blocked by his sister." Zhang Mufeng followed closely and interjected.
"A cat cries like a mouse!" He Qizhou muttered and said:
"Jumping from high places into water has been a method of physical training for me since I was a child, so when the assassin struck his final blow, I had no choice but to jump into a deep gorge to protect myself. This way I could also take away part of the opponent's strength. My
Half of the new injuries were from being beaten, and the other half were from falling into the water.
At that time, it was a hundred feet from the shore to the water, and the bottom was full of waves crashing against the rocks. I had only jumped from a height of more than twenty feet at most. I had no confidence at all. When I fell, I found that one of my arms was broken.
, and then saw the assassin floating down after him.
The other party is in the wind control realm, and he doesn't feel at ease even after I was beaten like that, so he thought as he fell, this is really the end, and the reason why I can survive is thanks to your blessing."
