Chapter 1032 Outside Chang’an City
Those who can make Feng Junhou smile foolishly are either a peerless beauty or a peerless handsome man.
General Guan is one of the best. He can be a beautiful person or a handsome man, and he can satisfy the different appetites of Feng Governor.
Just because of this year of fighting, her face has become more weather-stained.
Holding the other person’s hand, Governor Feng felt the roughness of his hand. He felt a little distressed and a little guilty, and whispered:
“Why did you come here in such a heavy snowstorm?”
In front of Governor Feng, General Guan lost his usual coolness and coolness, his eyes flickered slightly, and an anger that no outsider had ever seen was revealed in front of Governor Feng:
"The Prime Minister's urgent order requires you and I to rush to Chang'an immediately. The messenger did not find you in Hedong, so I had no choice but to rush over to join you."
Governor Feng has been busy reorganizing Hedong these days, and has basically visited several major counties.
In addition, the Wei army has just withdrawn from Guanzhong, and it is inevitable that there are remnants of troops in various places or powerful locals who are loyal to Wei. The connections between the various Han armies in Guanzhong are not completely smooth.
So it is normal for the messenger sent by the Prime Minister to be unable to find Governor Feng for a while.
"Why did the Prime Minister want me to go to Chang'an?" Governor Feng didn't understand. "Didn't Jiang Boyue arrive in Chang'an a long time ago?"
“Hedong has just stabilized, and I’m still thinking of going to Bingzhou.”
“Jiang Boyue did not enter Chang’an City.”
General Guan and Governor Feng stood side by side on the ruins of Tongguan, and casually told Governor Feng the latest news about Chang'an, "but he was sent to Jingshui by the Prime Minister."
“Why is this?”
Feng Jishi didn't understand even more.
Jiang Wei led the Tiger Infantry Army and was taught the Eight Formations by the Prime Minister. Various signs indicate that he is one of the new generation generals trained by the Prime Minister himself.
After finally getting the first credit, the Prime Minister transferred him away from Chang'an. What was the purpose?
"It is said that there was originally a bandit army under Xiaoguan City. After the surrender of Qianxian County, the bandits fled along the Jingshui River. The prime minister sent Jiang Wei there just to stop this bandit bandit."
"Oh?" Governor Feng nodded, "It's probably Sima Yi's fault again. He cut off his tail to survive."
"Maybe." General Guan replied nonchalantly, "But these thieves are not simple. I heard that they wanted to sneak attack Jingyang City when they passed through Anding."
“Fortunately, the prefect of Anping is Liu Yin, and the city is heavily fortified, so the thieves did not succeed.”
General Guan said with a look of confusion on his face, "But it is precisely because of this that the Prime Minister specially sent Jiang Boyue there."
From her point of view, if this group of thieves had taken advantage of the chaos in Guanzhong some time ago, they might not have been able to escape.
Unexpectedly, the thief general didn't know what happened in Guanzhong, or he had other ideas. He failed to attack Xiaoguan by surprise. When he retreated, he actually wanted to attack Anding.
Don't you know that during the Battle of Jieting, Zhang He suffered a lot in front of the camp defended by Liu Yin?
“It’s the prime minister’s long-cherished wish to return to the past. The prime minister will not let anything happen to him, so sending Jiang Wei there may be just to be on the safe side.”
Feng Jishi thought that he could probably understand Zhuge Lao Yao's psychology.
Just why the prime minister asked him to rush to Chang'an, General Guan didn't know, and Governor Feng couldn't figure it out either.
Seeing that Feng Jishi was thinking deeply, General Guan thought he was worried about the newly conquered land.
"There are Huo Yi in Bingzhou and Shi Bao in Hedong. They are all talented people. With them here, I think there won't be any big problems in Bingzhou and Hedong for the time being."
Unexpectedly, Governor Feng shook his head: "I always feel that things are not that simple."
It’s hard to settle down in this newly arrived place, so it’s natural that every movement is worse than silence.
If you leave suddenly, although there may not be any big problems, it may not be misunderstood, and it will not be good if something unexpected happens.
It is impossible for the Prime Minister not to understand these principles.
Compared to Governor Feng, General Guan thought much simpler:
"It's useless to think too much. Since we are going to Chang'an after all, we will naturally know what happened when we get there."
“Besides, the overall situation in Guanzhong has basically been decided, and there shouldn’t be any major events in Chang’an.”
When Governor Feng heard this, he secretly thought...
As long as he can ensure that Tongguan and Hedong are not lost, and there is Zhuge Yao in Chang'an, what kind of trouble can the remaining thieves in the pass cause?
After thinking for a moment, Governor Feng asked, "Where's three thousand?"
General Guan was stunned: "Who?"
“Erlang…”
If it were not in front of everyone, General Guan would beat people if he had no choice but to do so.
"Erlang has already gone to Chang'an before me." Speaking of Zhao Guang, General Guan looked worried, "It may be related to Old General Zhao."
When Governor Feng heard this, he was immediately surprised: "Old General Zhao?"
Logically speaking, Governor Feng knows best how many more years Mr. Zhao has lived, so he shouldn't be surprised by any news that comes to him now.
It’s just that people are greedy.
Over the years, the Jiangwu Hall has sent many students to the Liangzhou Army.
Feng Jishi is Mr. Zhao who really can't bear to sit in the martial arts hall.
General Guan looked at Governor Feng: "Have you guessed it?"
Governor Feng sighed:
"I'd rather I guessed wrong. You must be tired from rushing here in the snow, so take a rest tonight and we'll set off tomorrow."
General Guan nodded.
From Tongguan to Chang'an, it's about three hundred miles. If you ride along the Wei River, you can reach it in three days if you don't spare the horsepower.
It's just Guanzhong's initial decision. Even if you take the official route, if the number of people is too small, you will inevitably encounter rioters or strongmen blocking the road.
However, for Feng Jishi, this issue was nothing at all.
Because this time, General Guan led the Liangzhou cavalry to personally **** them, so the safety could be said to be foolproof.
The Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty sent an order for General Guan to go with him. I don’t know if he also took this into consideration.
But regardless of whether the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty meant this or not, his regard for Feng Jishi was real.
When Governor Feng rushed to the gate of Chang'an City, he saw someone sitting in a wheelchair in front of the gate of Chang'an City from a distance, as if waiting for someone.
“Prime Minister?”
Feng Jishi was so frightened that he rolled over and dismounted from his horse, ran all the way over, pushed the gold mountain, toppled the jade pillar, and knelt on one knee in front of the prime minister:
“The weather is cold, why is the Prime Minister freezing here?”
As he spoke, he wiped away the tears and snot blown out by the cold wind because he was in a hurry to get on the road.
Dahan Xiangxiang's body was already a stubborn, wearing a crown, his twins are all white hair, sitting on a wheelchair, covering a fine velvet blanket on his knees to prevent cold.
He looked at Feng Jishi, with a smile on his face, and stretched out his dry hand, as if he wanted to touch his face. Then he felt something was wrong and patted his shoulder instead.
"I am here to welcome the heroes of the Han Dynasty, and my heart is as hot as fire. Why should I be cold?"
The sunken cheeks made the Prime Minister look like candles in the wind. Only his eyes that were still shining showed his excitement at this time.
Governor Feng was on his way from Tongguan. He was almost freezing to death along the way. Now he was just wiping his nose randomly, but he didn't react for a while:
“Huh? The Prime Minister is waiting for someone?”
Who can be called a hero of the Han Dynasty by the Prime Minister, who knows how much contribution he has made?
Zhuge Liang looked at Feng Jishi's confused face and suddenly laughed loudly, his laughter full of joy.
Feng Jishi felt the hand on his shoulder holding him down hard, and heard the prime minister saying in his ear:
"Planning to establish Nanzhong, planning to prosper Hanzhong, managing Xiliang, traveling across the northern region, annexing prefectures, and eyeing Luoyang. The thieves were frightened when they heard about it, and they were defeated when they saw it. Can this be called a hero?"
Huh?
Does this sound familiar?
Feng Jishi looked up at the prime minister, blinked, and then a gust of north wind blew by.
It was bad, and tears flowed out habitually.
Seeing his appearance, the Prime Minister couldn't help but smile lovingly:
“I didn’t cry…”
Governor Feng wiped his tears and muttered in his heart, what do I deserve? Just these few compliments?
“You said you’re not crying yet!” The Prime Minister looked at him with a smile, patted the wheelchair and said, “Come on, push me over.”
"What?"
The governor Feng was a little confused.
I saw the Prime Minister gently waving his hand,
The soldiers behind him got out of the way as if they had received a military order.
However, in the rear area that was originally blocked, there were soldiers holding halberds lined up on both sides of the road, extending all the way to the towering Chang'an City Gate.
A safe carriage had been waiting in front for a long time. The prime minister motioned to Governor Feng to help him get on the carriage, and at the same time said:
"I have received the late emperor's edict, and I have been lamenting all night, lest I should fail the late emperor's trust. I can enter Chang'an today, and I will have no regrets even if I die!"
Hearing this, Governor Feng was greatly surprised:
“Prime Minister, what you mean is that you haven’t entered Chang’an yet?”
"Without the Liangzhou army fighting thousands of miles away, it is still unknown whether I could have returned to the old capital this time. How could I have been the first to enter Chang'an?"
As the Prime Minister spoke, he sat down on the An car and patted the seat next to him, "Sit with me."
Governor Feng looked around subconsciously, feeling the burning gazes around him, and couldn't help but squirm:
“Prime Minister, is this not good?”
“I just want to enter Chang’an with the heroes of the Han Dynasty, what’s wrong with that?”
The Prime Minister, who was always cautious, was unusually arrogant at this time. He glanced at the people under the car with a look of disdain and domineering.
Wei Yan groaned and turned his head.
Yang Yi’s face was expressionless, and her eyes were gloomy.
Guan Xing and Zhang Bao looked at Feng Jishi in the car with complicated eyes, with a mixture of love and hate, but the same thought in his mind:
How great would it be if this guy were just my brother-in-law?
Then, as if they had a telepathic connection, their eyes drifted toward each other subconsciously, and then looked away guiltily.
Meng Yan showed a complimentary smile.
Only Wu Ban and Li Feng had the simplest moods, and their smiles were sincere and sincere.
The prime minister noticed everyone’s expressions and spoke again:
“General Huwei has done a great job this time. I wonder if you can condescend to drive into Chang’an with me?”
Being able to accompany the Prime Minister to Chang'an for the first time is not a condescension.
General Guan, who accompanied Governor Feng, heard this, looked at Governor Feng, then scanned the crowd, and raised his eyebrows:
“If the prime minister gives you an order, how dare you disobey it?”
She was not as hypocritical as Governor Feng, who took the position of charioteer without ceremony.
If anyone is not convinced, please stand up if you have the courage.
Anyway, on this trip, I, the general, must advance and retreat together with Alang.
Wei Yan groaned heavily again.
Just as General Guan thought, even if he was not convinced, he had to hold it in.
In the army, military achievements speak for themselves. The Guan family's tiger cavalry swept across the Northland and became famous in the Central Plains. Who dares to look down upon it?
“Let’s go.”
The Prime Minister ignored these people's little thoughts and ordered.
General Guan shook the horse's rope lightly, and the wheels began to roll, carrying the three people in the car and galloping towards the Chang'an city gate.
The generals could only follow on foot.
"After this battle, your position in the court will be easy and unshakable."
Amidst the sound of the wheels turning, the Prime Minister looked ahead and said slowly, "I can see the return of the old capital, but I'm afraid I won't be able to see the restoration of the Han Dynasty."
“But luckily I still have you, I can barely explain to the late emperor even when I’m underground.”
Feng Jishi was startled and almost stood up in fright: "Why did the Prime Minister say this?"
The Prime Minister, however, stretched out his hand and spoke calmly, as if he was not talking about his own business:
"Sit tight and don't act too frightened. You are the one who treats me. Don't say you don't know what's going on with my body."
“I failed to fulfill the late emperor’s will, but I am very relieved to have finally found someone who can continue to fight against thieves and rejuvenate the Han Dynasty.”
Feng Jishi opened his mouth, but he didn't know what he wanted to say.
At this moment, he clearly realized that he was experiencing history.
This feeling is very strange, like passing on the fire from generation to generation, and it also gives people a heavy sense of mission.
It reminded Feng Yong of the oath he made when he was on the flood frontline in his previous life.
Presumably the prime minister also felt this way when he accepted the imperial edict at the bedside of the late emperor, right?
“I’m afraid that I will fail the Prime Minister’s trust.”
Feng Jishi whispered, this was the first time he felt a serious lack of confidence.
Even if the back roads to Jieting were cut off, the back roads to Jincheng were cut off, and the back roads to Xiaoguan were cut off, in the face of many dangers, Governor Feng had never been so unsure.
The prime minister saw Feng Jishi's rare reserved look and smiled:
"I know how you feel, because I was just like you back then, and I was afraid of betraying the late emperor's trust."
“Actually, don’t be afraid, just get used to it slowly. I believe you will do better than me.”
"After all, many times, the emperor only respected me and respected me, but he was very close to you and kept you in the palace for the night many times."
Feng Jishi smiled slightly awkwardly: "The Prime Minister has given me the reward."
The Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty glanced at him with something meaningful in his eyes:
"Excuse me? Isn't it true that the fourth lady of the Zhang family has been following you for so long without any name or status?"
"when!"
The car suddenly shook, and then there was the sound of stones jumping and hitting.
It is probably because the wheel is pressing on some pebble.
General Guan, who was sitting in the position of the charioteer, did not move at all.
Although he could not see General Guan's face, Governor Feng suddenly felt on pins and needles.
Prime Minister, don’t offend the driver when riding in a car, you know?
Now our two lives are in the hands of General Guan.
But I saw Feng Jishi stuttering a little and said:
"Prime Minister, this..., Si Niang, she is just... uh..."
“I have received news that the Feng Mansion has had three sons in the past two months. Feng Zhengxi, not many people would envy you for your ability!”
Um?
Sir Niang and the others have given birth?
Feng Jishi couldn't help being surprised and happy when he heard what the prime minister said.
Then there was another "clang" sound, and the car shook again.
Shaked Governor Feng out of his surprise and made him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave again.
He was seen wrapping up his coat and murmuring:
“This winter is so cold...”
PS: Starting from tomorrow, we will take wedding photos for three days.
