Do you know: I am Xu Jiazi

Chapter 402: Wu Lang, come on, let's go beat him up! [Thank you! Goodbye! I owe you words]

In front of Jinglong Gate,

The Baigao surrendered people were already on their way to the palace.

The people on the street outside Jinglong Gate were also gradually dispersing.

In fact, earlier,
The people of Bianjing, who were keen on the hustle and bustle, had already taken a detour to the inner city through Anyuan Gate in the east or Tianbo Gate in the west when they saw the emperor's canopy on the city wall disappear, and continued to watch the excitement of Master Bai on the way to the north gate of the imperial palace.

When Bai Gaoren entered the palace,
The people who were watching outside the north gate of the palace also dispersed.

The people dispersed.

However, there were more and more carriages and horses outside the plain at the north gate of the imperial palace.

Xu Zaijing and other cavalrymen who set out from Baigao also stationed their horses under the imperial city. Their mission of traveling thousands of miles had been completed, and the rest of the matter was left to the imperial guards.

Xu Zaijing rode his little black horse and stopped beside Zhang Fangyan. Listening to Zhang Fangyan's words, Xu Zaijing nodded continuously.

Afterwards, Zhang Fangyan dismounted and entered the palace, while Xu Zaijing rode on horseback to convey military orders with several cavalry generals under Zhang Fangyan.

quickly,

The cavalry set out directly back to the camp,

Only a few sons of noble military officers who lived in Bian Jing, such as Xu Zaijing, stayed at the palace gate.

After watching my comrades go away,
Xu Zaijing then took Qingyun, Alan and others and rode towards the place where the carriage was far in the north.

There was someone waving at him.

Passing the guards who were keeping order,
When he came near to the people,

Xu Zaijing got off the horse swiftly.

Looking at the people in the crowd, Xu Zaijing hurriedly bowed and said, "Mother, eldest sister-in-law, brother, second sister-in-law, sister, brother-in-law."

As Xu Zaijing called for people, Qingyun and others behind him also bowed hurriedly.

I haven't called out much yet,
Sun and Pingmei walked quickly to Xu Zaijing, and one of them grabbed one of Xu Zaijing's hands and looked at him carefully.

"Uncle."

"Little uncle"

Xu Xingdai, who was held in Cuichan's arms, and Gu Shixing, who was held in Qingxia's arms, called out in crisp voices.

Xu Zaijing smiled and nodded at the children who were calling for help.

Sun looked at Xu Zaijing, whose skin was rough and dusty but still smiling, and said with a sour nose: "Jing'er."

"mother."

Pingmei stroked Xu Zaijing's rough, calloused hands and said, "Xiaowu, didn't you bring any moisturizing gel?"

"Sis, I'm going to the war! Why bring that thing?"

"Yes, yes."

Pingmei nodded.

"Oh, Anmei said she wanted to come! But it was her first child, and she was already too far along in the pregnancy, so her mother forced her not to come."

Pingmei continued.

Xu Zaijing: "Yes, mother did the right thing!"

As he said this, Xu Zaijing looked at the three maids in his courtyard who were laughing and wiping their tears in the crowd.

"Mom, there are Xiaowu's classmates behind us."

Pingmei whispered.

Sun nodded, wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and then let go of Xu Zaijing's hand.

The nanny and Hualan behind Sun hurried forward to support her.

Pingmei retreated to Gu Tingyu's side.

Zai Zhang didn't say anything. After seeing his mother and sister step away, he and Xu Zai Jing hugged each other tightly and patted each other on the shoulders.

When the two separated,
Zai Zhang glanced at Xu Zai Jing from head to toe and said, "Xiao Wu, have you grown taller again?"

Xu Zaijing was stunned and asked, "Is there?"

Just finished,
Gu Tingye walked over with his arms open.

"Clap clap clap!"

The two hugged each other and patted each other hard.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

The two of them started coughing after being hit by each other.

"Goro, next time something like this happens, I will definitely go with you!"

"A word is settled!"

"Wu Lang, thank you for your hard work along the way."

"Brother Jing, thank you for your hard work."

Changbai and Changfeng behind Gu Tingye bowed and said.

"Brother Changbai! Changfeng~"

Xu Zaijing grabbed Changbai's hand and hugged him just like he did with Gu Tingye.

Changbai was stunned and patted Xu Zaijing on the back gently.

After Xu Zaijing let go of Changbai, he patted the shoulder of Changfeng, who was not tall enough.

The one behind is Qi Heng.

"Brother Jing, please tell us about the scenery of the northwest when you have time."

While Qi Heng was speaking, he bowed to Xu Zaijing, then smiled enthusiastically and nodded at Qingyun.

Many years ago, when Qi Heng was a child, he was almost bullied by Rong Xian with a ball. Qingyun's kindness in helping him that time is still deeply engraved in Buwei's heart.

"Okay, I'll talk to Heng-ge about it when I go to the academy tomorrow."

Liang Han and Qiao Jiulang, who were following behind Qi Heng, said, "Brother Jing, what about us?"

Just as Xu Zaijing was about to speak, Liang Han said, "Why don't you come to my house for the fireplace party in a few days and talk to us then."

Xu Zaijing looked at Madam Wu who was standing next to his mother and Lady Bai, the wife of Ningyuan Marquis, not far away.

Looking at the smile on Mrs. Wu's face, Xu Zaijing nodded in agreement.

When Liang Han saw that Xu Zaijing agreed, he smiled and looked at Qiao Jiu.

"Sworn brother!"

Accompanied by his nanny, Lu Zezong smiled and bowed to Xu Zaijing.

Liang Han and Qiao Jiu hurriedly stepped aside with a smile.

Xu Zaijing smiled and walked two steps forward, touched his head and said, "How is Zong'er's horse riding now?"

Lu Zezong smiled and said, “Brother, I have learned it!”

"Great!"

"Brother, the Spring Festival is still two months away. Will you come to my house to celebrate the New Year then?" Lu Zezong asked expectantly.

"You stayed at my house before, so naturally I have to go to yours this year!"

"Ok!"

Lu Zezong smiled and nodded heavily.

Outside the crowd,

Several fine carriages stopped.
Looking at the crowd outside the north gate of the palace, Wu Niang poked her head out of the carriage window and said, "We are not too late. The cavalry has just returned to the camp."

These noble ladies gathered together to watch the ceremony, separated from their mothers.

Gu Tingyi and Zhang's Wu Niang got off the carriage together. Wu Niang lifted the curtains and pointed to the other two carriages: "Don't you want to come down and take a look?"

Chai Zhengzheng hesitated for a moment and shook his head.

"Zhengzheng, my mother and several ladies are here, as are the maids and maids! Feiyan, your brother is standing on the palace wall! Let's go and take a look!"

Gu Tingyi said with a smile.

"Let's go!" Wu Niang stretched out her hand and said.

Chai Zhengzheng and Rong Feiyan hesitated for a while, looked at each other, and then got off the carriage.

Soon, the four girls held hands and walked out of the crowd, followed by the nanny and the maid.

"Mother, I'm back."

Gu Tingyi smiled and spoke to Mrs. Bai in the crowd.

The maids and nannies quickly stepped aside.

Mrs. Wu, who was standing next to Sun, turned around, glanced at Sun with a smile, and shouted with a smile: "Hey, Wu Niang, Miss Zhengzheng, Miss Feiyan!"

The four noble ladies quickly knelt down and bowed, while they bowed, they shouted in crisp voices: "Greetings to Madam Sun, Madam Bai, Madam Wu, Sister Pingmei Hualan"

The maids and nannies behind them were also busy performing the greetings.

"Fifth brother, I didn't expect you to come back so soon!" After performing the formalities and greeting everyone, Wu Niang said to Xu Zaijing with a bright smile.

Xu Zaijing looked at Wu Niang, who was dressed in style, and said, "I didn't expect it to be so soon. I thought we would spend the New Year in the north!"

Wu Niang smiled, looked at the little black colt behind Xu Zaijing, and said with some pity: "Your mount has become thinner."

"Sorry"

The little black colt snorted.

"When we get back, we'll take good care of it."

Xu Zaijing turned around and glared at the little black colt, then looked at Wu Niang and said.

Gu Tingyi, who was standing behind Wu Niang, waited for the two to finish talking before smiling and bowing: "Congratulations, Brother Jing, on your triumphant return."

Looking at Tingyi, who looked very similar to Mrs. Bai, Xu Zaijing smiled and said, "Thank you, third sister."

Following the voices of Wu Niang and Ting Yi, Chai Zhengzheng and Rong Feiyan bowed and naturally looked at Xu Zaijing who was speaking. Xu Zaijing looked at the two girls who rarely met and nodded in gratitude.

At this time, Xu Zaijing had already taken off his outer armor, leaving only a close-fitting waistcoat-style chain mail. At the same time, he also had a headband on his forehead that was made of very good material and had some... well... good embroidery skills.

"Mother, we still have to attend Miss Hai's poetry gathering. Let's go now."

Gu Tingyi said to Mrs. Bai.

"Go ahead, don't be disrespectful."

Bai instructed.

"Fifth brother, I'm leaving now."

As she spoke, Wu Niang waved to Xu Zaijing and walked to Ting Yi.

Chai Zhengzheng smiled and bowed to the ladies present, then shook the hand that Wu Niang had extended.

Gu Tingyi held the hand of Rong Feiyan who pretended to be calm.

The four people did not walk through the crowd as they did before, but walked around in front of the people to the side.

Before leaving, Chai Zhengzheng happened to see the sisters Qingcao, Qingzhi and Huaxiang standing here.

Chai Zhengzheng nodded to Qingcao and Qingzhi with a bright smile, then followed Wu Niang.

Yunmu, who was following Chai Zhengzheng, also smiled and nodded to Qingcao and Qingzhi.

in the crowd,
"Then, let's go back too! Let's take this opportunity to go to her house and have a meal." Madam Wu said, pulling Bai's arm.

"go!"

Bai smiled and looked at Sun and replied.

After her son returned safely, Sun was in a good mood and replied, "Come on! If you eat too much today, don't blame me for the delicious food."

Outside the palace gate,
Outside the crowd of Xu family members,
There were also many young men from Bian Jing like Xu Zaijing who were talking to their families.

Next to one of the carriages,

A well-dressed woman was holding the hand of a cavalry lieutenant with one hand and stroking the scar on the lieutenant's cheek with the other hand.

"Yue'er, you've suffered a lot in the north over the past year, right?"

"Mother, it's not bitter!"

"How did you get this scar? You didn't tell me in the letter!"

The young lieutenant touched his cheek, looked at the tearful little sister beside the woman and said, "I was riding a horse and was not paying attention, and was hit by a branch."

Looking at the scar, the woman shook her head and said, "That branch is really thick."

The cavalry lieutenant smiled awkwardly.

"Let's go home!" said the woman.

The cavalry lieutenant nodded and stretched out his hand to the little sister: "Meng'er, come here."

The girl smiled and held her brother's hand, then looked towards where Xu Zaijing and others were dispersing not far away.

Looking at the crowd over there, the girl tilted her head and asked, "Brother, do you know the Xu family's Wulang who beat up the Bai Gaoren?"

The lieutenant shook his head and said, "Your brother is under General Zhang, and that Wulang is under Lord Xu. We had only met a few times before returning to the capital."

"Oh!"

"So, brother, who is better, you or that Wu Lang?"

The cavalry lieutenant laughed at himself and said, "Little sister, your brother is just a competent cavalry lieutenant! Wu Lang is an elite scout in the front line, how can he be compared with him?"

"Do you know how many enemy troops he stopped in the mountains with his scouts?"

"I don't know! One hundred?"

Hearing the younger sister's unconfident tone, the lieutenant shook his head with emotion.

The woman walking in front also turned around and looked over curiously.

The lieutenant glanced at Xu Zaijing who was not far away, then exchanged glances with his mother. "When I went with the commander to receive the surrendered soldiers, the comrade in charge of the count said there were more than 7,000 people, not counting those who escaped in the dark."

"what???"

The teenage girl looked away in disbelief.

"Yue'er, why is the Xu family brother so powerful?"

“It’s because of the terrain.”

The woman nodded and said, "I thought so! It should be a terrain where one man can block the passage of ten thousand men, right?"

The captain shook his head and said, "Mother, I have seen it, it is not that kind of terrain. Without superb martial arts and outstanding courage, it is impossible to stop it!"

"In fact, reporting this enemy situation back to the central army would be a great achievement, but the brother of the Xu family blocked it."

"How amazing! No wonder he can fight five people alone!" exclaimed the little girl.

The lieutenant smiled and nodded.

At this time, the girls from the Zhang, Gu, Chai and Rong families happened to walk near this family.

Seeing the well-dressed woman in front of me,
Wu Niang, the leader, smiled and bowed. Zheng Zheng and the other three also stopped and squatted slightly, saying, "Greetings, Madam."

The woman smiled kindly and nodded.

The girl the lieutenant was holding also smiled and said, "Hello, four sisters."

"Meng'er, I'll play with you when I have a chance."

"Um!"

After the ceremony, Wu Niang and the other three nodded to the captain and got on the carriage.

"Little sister, I know the girls from the Zhang, Gu, and Rong families. Whose family is that girl from?"

"That's Sister Zheng Zheng from the Chai family."

"Oh! Chai family."

While talking about the Chai family, the captain's eyes involuntarily looked at Ting Yi's figure.

After a while

The lieutenant mounted his horse by the roadside, and his mother and younger sister also got on the carriage.

At this time, there were quite a lot of people, horses, and carriages from the Xu, Gu, Wu and other families who had already set out, and they were already walking on the road next to this family.

So this family waited by the roadside and set off after Xu Gu and a few others had passed by.

The streets outside the north gate of the imperial city were a bit crowded, so the convoys of Xu, Gu and others inevitably stopped.

in the carriage,
The lieutenant who was stationed beside the carriage saw his mother's eyes widened in surprise at first, and then turned into a look of some loss and regret.

He looked at his younger sister with a questioning look.

The girl also shook her head regretfully.

Soon, the Xu family's convoy drove away.

The family's carriage also started moving.

Walking onto the street,

The cavalry lieutenant looked down at his mother and sister in the carriage and asked, "Mother, what happened to you just now?"

The lady sighed and said, "Nothing!"

After saying that, he shook his head regretfully.

Looking at her son's eyes outside the car, the lady said, "Don't let your imagination run wild. It has nothing to do with you! I just saw the second lady of the Xu family."

"She's pretty! She's well-educated, and I heard that she's also very capable and dignified in managing the household! She's a good girl who will bring prosperity to three generations!"

The lieutenant thought for a moment and said hesitantly, "Mother, is it the girl from the Sheng family that my second cousin was almost going to marry?"

"Ugh!"

The woman sighed heavily.

In the convoys of Xu Gu and others,
The carriage where Lady Sun, the wife of Marquis Xu, was sitting,

Mrs. Wu sat by the side of the carriage, pulling the curtain with her hand and looking sideways towards the back of the carriage.

"Sister Wu, what are you looking at?"

Bai asked.

Madam Wu glanced at her old friend Sun and said with a smile, "Sister Bai, do you know whose carriage we just passed by?"

Mrs. Bai thought about it and shook her head.

"That was the carriage of Shoushanbo Huang's family. His eldest son had previously joined the Zhang family's eldest son and just came back today."

"The younger brother of the wife of Marquis Shoushan is the original Marquis Zhongqin."

Bai suddenly realized: "Oh!"

Sun looked at the two marquises who were looking at her and asked, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Bai said, "Sister, tell me, how do you choose your daughters-in-law? Both of your sons married such good wives!"

Sun: "There is a good matchmaker!"

As he said this, he looked at Mrs. Wu.

Mrs. Wu gave Sun a blank look, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

Suddenly, Madam Wu was stunned. After thinking for a moment, she said hesitantly, "Sister Bai, speaking of this, the wife of the Marquis of Shoushan is a decent person! Over the years, few people have talked about the affairs of the Marquis of Shoushan's family!"

"I heard from the Lady of the Duke of Ying that this Yue brother is very good. He has been in the army for more than a year and is highly valued by the eldest son of the Zhang family."

Bai also understood what Mrs. Wu meant, and asked carefully, "What's his brother's name?"

"My brother is called Qingyue and my sister is called Qingmeng"

Bai nodded.

Sun understood Bai's feelings, leaned forward and patted Bai's hand and said, "Don't worry, sister. I will ask the old lady of Duke Lian's family to go to the Zhang family and ask about the child. She will definitely find out the situation of this child."

A few days later,
Gu Tingye, who was leaving school, pulled Xu Zaijing and said, "Wulang, come on, let's go beat him up!"
