Chapter 19 Yue Fei and Yue Wumu

Li Chengdao didn't know everything that happened in the imperial city.

Even though Li Yuan has announced to the world that Li Chengdao will be crowned the emperor's grandson, according to the current speed of information transmission, it will take some time for it to spread throughout the entire Tang Dynasty.

After Li Chengdao escaped from Chang'an City, he was escorted by seven thousand white-robed troops and headed all the way to Xingyang.

Fortunately, the white robe army brought marching rations, and there were towns along the way to provide supplies. Otherwise, whether they could survive to Xingyang would be a problem.

However, when the army was halfway on the way, there was a person blocking the army's progress.

"Your Highness, there is a person blocking the way in front of you. He is very powerful and wants to see you, Your Highness."

Feng Lizhi rode to Li Chengdao's side and reported to him.

"Oh? Who is this person?"

Li Chengdao raised his head and asked.

"This person's surname is Yue Mingfei. He said he came specifically to seek refuge with Your Highness."

Feng Li replied.

Li Chengdao's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard this, and he was very excited.

Yue Fei, it’s Yue Fei!

He had always been curious about how the system would reward Yue Fei to him, but he didn't expect it to be delivered to his door like the White Robe Army.It was not a flash of golden light that suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Take me to meet him!"

Li Chengdao said immediately.

Feng Li did not dare to neglect and quickly stepped forward to lead the way.

After arriving in front of the army, Li Chengdao saw Xue Wanche leading dozens of soldiers to surround a tall, resolute-looking civilian man holding a spear in the middle.

This man is none other than Yue Fei!
"Everyone disperse, your Highness is here!"

Feng Li stepped forward to clear the way, and the soldiers gave way one after another.

Seeing Li Chengdao, a flash of excitement flashed in Yue Fei's eyes, and he immediately knelt down and said: "Common Yue Fei, please see His Highness the County Prince!"

Li Chengdao focused his attention on Yue Fei, and then asked: "Since you know me, why do you want to block my army from moving forward?"

Blocking the march of the army is no small matter. Although Li Chengdao understands Yue Fei's identity, he always has to do some superficial things in front of so many soldiers.

"Please forgive me, Your Highness. The Cao Min family was favored by His Highness the Crown Prince in the early years. This time I heard about the rebellion of King Qin and the death of the Crown Prince. I am filled with anger but have nowhere to vent it."

"And Your Highness, as the only bloodline of the Crown Prince now, in order to repay the Crown Prince's kindness, the common people came here to look for His Highness."

"The common people still have some abilities. If Your Highness doesn't mind, the common people are willing to work hard for His Highness!"

Yue Fei said impassionedly.

These words moved many of the soldiers around him, and they all showed admiration on their faces.

He came all the way here just to repay his kindness, which can be called an amazing man.

Li Chengdao was stunned for a moment after hearing what Yue Fei said, and then he understood that the system had changed Yue Fei's memory and identity, so that he could reasonably arrange to work for him by his side.

Otherwise, it would be difficult for a Song person to integrate into the Tang Dynasty.

Thinking of this, Li Chengdao secretly gave the system a thumbs up, then turned over and dismounted, personally helped Yue Fei up, and then said with a sincere expression:

"I am just a lost dog now, but Your Excellency is willing to follow me, which shows your sincerity!"

"I now want to go to Xingyang to seek help from my mother clan. If you are willing, then go with me." "The common people are willing to go!" Yue Fei immediately clasped his fists without any hesitation.

Li Chengdao smiled, grabbed Yue Fei's hand and returned to the army.

Such a scene fell in the eyes of all the soldiers, and they felt very excited.

As the saying goes, those who have attained the truth will get more help. Li Chengdao is in such a desperate situation now, and there are still people who are willing to follow him thousands of miles away, he will definitely be able to return to Chang'an one day.

And Li Chengdao and Yue Fei held hands and laughed and talked, and their approachable appearance was even more impressive.

……

The army marched all the way, and finally five days later, Li Chengdao led the army to Kaifeng City, Xingyang County.

Kaifeng was one of the richest cities in the Tang Dynasty.

The local overlord of Kaifeng and even the entire Xingyang is Li Chengdao's mother clan, that is, one of the top aristocratic families of the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes - the Zheng family of Xingyang!
After Li Chengdao left Chang'an, the only help he could find was the Zheng family in Xingyang.

Outside Kaifeng City, the sky is filled with yellow sand.

The soldiers who defended the city looked at the more than [-] magnificent troops approaching the city, and they all turned pale with shock.

Kaifeng is located in the hinterland of the Tang Dynasty and is connected in all directions. It has been prosperous and less prone to disasters since ancient times. Military disasters basically cannot affect it here.

Therefore, there are only a few thousand soldiers in the city, and they are all skirmishers who have never been on the battlefield.

In contrast, the white-robed troops brought by Li Chengdao are all elites who have crawled out of the sea of ​​blood, and are extremely well-trained and follow orders and prohibitions. Just one look at them can make people feel awe in their hearts.

"Whose troops are you?"

On the city wall, the general on duty suppressed his fear and shouted loudly.

No matter when, it is very dangerous to lead a large army to the city without any notification. The defenders can launch a counterattack.

It's just that the number of white-robed soldiers was so overwhelming that the Kaifeng defenders didn't dare to act rashly.

Hearing the extremely rude words of this general, the soldiers who had been trekking for many days and were physically and mentally exhausted suddenly became a little commotion.

Just when Feng Li was about to curse, Li Chengdao stretched out his hand to stop him, then rode out into battle and said loudly:
"This king is Li Chengdao, the king of Anlu County. The defenders on the city must open the city gate quickly!"

After that, Li Chengdao threw the seal from his waist with all his strength, and it landed on the general on duty on the city wall impartially.

"Prince Anlu!"

The general was shocked when he saw the lines and words on the seal clearly.

He did not dare to offend this royal relative, but letting so many people enter the city was not something he, a small general on duty, could decide, so he immediately ordered someone to go to the governor's office with a seal to ask for instructions.

At the same time, he shouted respectfully: "Your Highness, please wait a moment."

Li Chengdao was also very patient and ordered the army to stay where they were and wait quietly.

……

In the Kaifeng Governor's Mansion.

"Prince Anlu!"

When Wang Xiuwen, the governor of Kaifeng, heard the report from his subordinates, he was so shocked that the cup in his hand fell to the ground.

He snatched the seal from his subordinates' hands, looked at it carefully for a few times, then walked quickly outside, and said anxiously:

"Immediately order officials at all levels in the city to prepare to leave the city to meet His Highness the County King!"
