Marriage is too common, family families, wealthy nobles, royal relatives and state relatives, will use the means of marriage to consolidate their power and status.

At the beginning, Xu Xiao wanted to marry Xu Weixiong, the lord of the Great County of Northern Liang, to Lin Xuan for marriage, but neither of them was willing and could only give up.

Yanzhou is in the north, and there is no doubt that it is in competition with Northern Liang.

The emperor's original intention in supporting Lin Xuan was to replace the position of the king of Northern Liang, and Lin Xuan wanted to grow, and he could not avoid conflict with Northern Liang.

At least not for a short time, his opponent will not be the imperial court.

The Liang Python plus the Huqiang tribes around the Shangdang in the east.

Therefore, Lin Xuan can accept this marriage and marry a princess back, which can not only enhance his position of power, but also increase his trust in the heart of the Son of Heaven.

Thousands of thoughts turned in his heart, and finally calmed down, and he was about to turn around and leave with Wen Wu Bai Guan.

but was stopped by Princess Lingxi.

"Yanhou, please stay."

The girl spoke, her voice pleasant, extremely beautiful.

"What's the matter with the princess?"

He stopped.

"I don't know if Yan Hou can appreciate the light today and have a light meal in the palace."

Princess Lingxi whispered.

"Oh, it's really a big girl."

The Son of Heaven on the dragon chair sighed deliberately: "I haven't married yet, and I think about others in my heart." "

"Father."

The girl was coquettish: "Isn't this why Yanhou is about to leave Beijing, so her daughter wants to have a meal?" "

"I don't know if the emperor can leave a pair of bowls and chopsticks for Xuan."

The Son of Heaven teased.

"Hee-hee, definitely."

The girl nodded.

"Marquis Yan, you wait in the palace for a while, change into civilian clothes, and go to the palace with you."

The Son of Heaven spoke.

"No."

Lin Xuan bowed.

"Yanhou, I'll go back and prepare first."

With that, Princess Lingxi left with Cui'er and another slave.

After the tea, the Son of Heaven changed his robe, and the two monarchs walked side by side to the Lingxi Palace, followed by Cao Zhengchun from a distance.

In early spring, the sky is full of sparse snowflakes, and the cold wind echoes, shining with biting cold.

"Is the form of Yandi grim?"

The Son of Heaven spoke.

"It's a little dangerous."

Lin Xuan smiled bitterly: "The year before last, he beheaded thirteen iron riders of the Northern Python in a battle, and last year he beheaded more than 100,000.

According to the nature of that female emperor, I am afraid that she will not give up. "

"It is estimated that in the future, the center of gravity of the northern python going south is likely to shift from the northern liang to the Yandi."

The Son of Heaven nodded slightly: "Especially in the area of Shangdang County, there were originally many grassland tribes that could be used as barriers.

Now that the grassland tribe has been cleaned up by you, if the Northern Python breaks through the upper party, it can go south from the boundary of the two Liao lands and approach the Jingshi division. "

"Your Majesty rest assured."

He said: "This autumn, the construction of Shangdang City will be completed, and then my Yandi army, relying on Shangdang City, will be solid." "

"With you sitting in Yandi, Xu Cai can rest assured."

The Son of Heaven sighed: "I'm afraid that when the news of your marquis reaches Northern Liang, your righteous father will have a hard time standing." "

"That old thing, why was he willing to let you go away from Yan County in the first place."

"The minister stays in Northern Liang, and it will be difficult for the son to take over in the future."

Lin Xuan did not make an excuse for himself, but told the truth.

"The?"

The Son of Heaven's eyes were contemptuous: "I heard that I recently stole chickens and dogs in Jiangnan." "

"The minister and he have never been at odds with him, and they have never cared."

Lin Xuan shook his head.

"Take good care of Yandi."

The Son of Heaven chuckled: "I know that if you didn't have ambition, you wouldn't have taken eight hundred horses away to Yandi back then."

A good boy should aim to be in all directions, make meritorious achievements, now he is just a marquis, can't say, in the future, you will be crowned a Yan king. "

"Do you want to be crowned king and worship the prime minister?"

"Think."

Lin Xuan nodded.

"Just think about it."

The Son of Heaven said, "But in this world, there are too many two kings with different surnames, and only one king with different surnames can exist." "

It was no longer a cryptic point, but it was bluntly said that if Lin Xuan wanted to be crowned king, he had to bring down Xu Xiao.

"You don't have to feel guilty."

Perhaps seeing that his henchman would be a little silent, the Son of Heaven said lightly: "It's that he is not benevolent first, you just take back what should belong to you." "

He did not continue to talk about this matter, but took the initiative to change the topic: "This year, do you still plan to continue to use troops against the Northern Python?" "

"Hmm."

Lin Xuan nodded: "Last year, I stormed Orange Prefecture, and this year I fought together with Xihe Prefecture, if I don't fight, the Northern Python people will also beat me."

It's better for me to strike first, beat them painfully, and be afraid, so that they don't dare to be unscrupulous. "

"Well said."

The Son of Heaven laughed: "The offensive and defensive momentum is easy to shape, in the past, the northern python went south every year, burning, killing and looting, and then it was our Central Plains Celestial Empire, going north every year."

Although you can rest assured, if you lack anything, you will give a fold, and I will try to help you get it together. "

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Lin Xuan said helplessly: "At the moment, there is no shortage of food, grass and armaments, but there is a lack of capable officials, especially the two counties of Xiaping and Shangdang."

The relationship between the ministers and those Confucian families in the Central Plains is clear to His Majesty. "

"When you and the emperor get married, Xu personally selects a group of capable officials to use as dowries and send them to Yandi."

Until dusk

Lin Xuan came out of the palace after eating, and the broken army who had been waiting for a long time at the gate of the palace saw his son and quickly greeted him.

"Didn't you go back to the house earlier?"

He said, "Wait outside." "

"It's boring to go back."

The broken army showed excitement: "Great General, I heard from the forbidden army guarding the palace gate that you have been crowned a marquis." "

"Sealed."

He nodded.

"Or the Yanhou of 20,000 households?"

"Your boy is quite well-informed."

"Let's go, go back to the general's mansion, pack your luggage, and let's leave the day after tomorrow."

Lin Xuan carried his hand behind his back and slowly stepped onto the long street, and the snow slowly increased, splashed and fell on the cloak.

Noon on the second day

The rewards in the palace were delivered to the general's mansion, and there were fifty or sixty carts of rewards, and each carriage was full.

These belongings were not unloaded, but directly in the courtyard, waiting to drive on the road tomorrow.

Every three forks and five days, some officials came to visit, but they were all sent by the broken army, and Lin Xuan did not see a single one.

Early morning on the third day

The sky is gray, not yet bright, the wind and snow are howling, overwhelming, and in the distance in the imperial city, the lights are bright.

Dozens of carriages stopped in front of the general's mansion, and the slaves in the mansion were busy packing up their things.

Lin Xuan got up very early, bathed and changed, and was drinking tea in the lobby.

"Hou Ye, Princess Lingxi's chariot is here."

The broken army came in from outside to report.

"Please come in."

He spoke.

This time, Princess Lingxi did not bring many people, only two strong and strong concubines and slave Cui'er.

The girl's face was a little tired, and her eyes were a little puffy.

"Didn't you sleep well?"

Lin Xuan frowned slightly.

"I didn't sleep well."

Cui'er said, "It's these two nights, I didn't sleep at all." "

"My princess Jin Zhi Yuye, Yi Lai reached out to open her mouth, but in order to sew a jacket for Hou Ye, I don't know how many needle holes were pierced on my hands, but it hurt me to death."

"Trix."

Princess Lingxi scolded, and Cui'er closed her mouth in aggrievedness.

"Yan Hou, don't listen to this broken mouth slave nonsense."

The girl said softly, "When I go back, I will punish her for not eating." "

"What a penalty."

Lin Xuan shook his head and glanced at her hands, and the originally white palms were indeed covered with some fine red dots.

The girl hurriedly retracted her hand into her sleeve and whispered, "Grandma, take out your coat." "

The burly grandmother behind her took out a white coat.

The broken army reached out and put it away.

"I heard that the snow in Yandi will not melt until March, and I think it will be colder after Yanhou returns.

It's just that the jacket is a little rough. "

Princess Lingxi pursed her lips: "I hope Yanhou will not be disgusted." "

"Don't dislike it."

Lin Xuan ridiculed: "In this world, there are not many people who can wear the coat sewn by Princess Lingxi herself." "

Princess Lingxi's nervous mood eased down, and her eyes shone with a little brilliance: "Yandi fights a lot, Hou Ye is happy to kill the enemy again, charging into battle, and the ancients are speechless." "

After that, she took a wooden box from another grandmother behind her, placed it on the table, and said softly: "Inside is a piece of gold silk soft armor that my father gave me, and it is invulnerable to swords and guns on my body."

I don't need it, so I give it to Yan Hou, and when I go into battle, I must dress well, don't worry me. "

For a cardamom woman who has never been out of the cabinet, it is extremely humiliating to be able to say these words. (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) )

What's more, the girl is a princess, growing up in the deep palace, and the law is extremely strict.

"Trix."

She spoke.

"Hou Ye, this is the snack and dry food prepared by the princess."

The slave took out a baggage: "They were all made by the cooks in the palace, extremely attentive, and Hou Ye brought them to eat on the road." "

A jacket

A pair of gold silk soft armor

A box of snacks and dry food

When it was really difficult, Lin Xuan did not refuse, and accepted all three things.

In front of the General's House

Hundreds of forbidden troops had already escorted dozens of loaded carriages towards the north gate.

The broken army very consciously walked into the distance, leading two war horses and waiting.

Princess Lingxi's chariot stopped on the other side of the gate of the mansion.

Cui'er and the two aunts also followed from a distance.

"Yanhou, take care."

The two walked out of the mansion, and the girl's eyes were a little reluctant: "If you encounter a problem, you can let people come into Beijing to find me in the princess's mansion in the city."

I will definitely help. "

"Thank you, Princess."

Lin Xuan hugged his fists: "This is a long way to the mountain, and I hope that the princess is in the capital and don't worry." "

"Farewell."

With that, he walked towards the broken army, took the reins, turned over on his horse, and chased after the convoy.

Long

Watching Lin Xuan's back completely disappear under the gray sky, the wind and snow were long.

"Princess, don't look, it's all gone."

Cui'er leaned over and gently shook the girl's arm, and Princess Lingxi came back to her senses.

"After a few more months of lovesickness, you will be able to meet Yanhou."

She pursed her lips and smiled.

"Good you girl, your guts are getting fatter, even Princess Ben dares to ridicule."

The girl scratched the itchy flesh around Cui'er's waist angrily.

After fighting for a while, the second daughter got into the carriage, and the two grandmothers drove to the imperial city.

The curtain opened, and Princess Lingxi poked her head out and took a deep look in the direction of the north gate.

"Princess, don't worry too much."

Cui Wei comforted: "Hou Ye's martial arts are rare in the world, even Cao Gonggong is not as good as it, and there are so many elite soldiers and strong generals under his command, it will be fine." "

The carriage entered the palace gate and gradually drifted away until it completely disappeared in the wind and snow.

After showing the token, the north gate of the capital opened, and dozens of carts and hundreds of horses slowly went north,

Lin Xuan and the broken army walked in the forefront.

Day and night, rushing to Yandi, although there are many carriages and horses, but the speed is much faster than when they came.

In just half a month, he will go out of Qingzhou.

"Hou Ye, there are another thirty or forty miles away, it is Qingyu Pass, let's speed up and strive to arrive before dark."

The broken army spoke: "It's still comfortable to stay in Yandi." "

"Good."

He nodded slightly, and as he was speaking, suddenly there was a low roar in the distance, which was the movement generated by the cavalry running wildly.

At the end of the line of sight, snow is flying, and snow and dust are rising into the sky, like a white curtain.

"'.alert.'."

The expression of the commander of the forbidden army in charge of transportation changed slightly, and under the heavy drink, hundreds of forbidden troops rushed out from both sides of the convoy, holding their knives and guns flat, and looking ahead with solemn faces.

The warhorse in the crotch neighed restlessly.

"Take it easy."

Lin Xuan spoke, a smile on his face: "That's Yandi's iron horse coming to greet General Ben." "

The words fell, and the originally low roar became more and more high-pitched, like thunder, the end of the realization.

A black line appeared, and it expanded rapidly, and after a few breaths, the commander of the forbidden army saw it clearly.

It was a cavalry, numbered on the left and right, covered in black armor, and each with a narrow chopping knife.

The war horses became more and more restless, and the furious anger came to them, and thousands of troops and horses ran wildly, like mountains, and the terrible oppression made these forbidden troops who guarded the capital almost breathless.

"Such a strong murderous aura."

Qianfu's face was solemn: "Is this Yan Riding?" "

Even if they were far away, the bloody murderous aura made them terrified, as soldiers.

They knew very well that only the kind of elite of a hundred battles, who crawled out of the pile of dead people, could have such a fierce aura.

I knew that those more than a thousand Yan horses would not charge towards him, but these hundreds of forbidden troops were still a little frightened.

One by one, they were extremely nervous, and the hands holding the spears trembled slightly, and their palms were covered in cold sweat.

A thousand horses galloped, the war horses were majestic, and the armor was burly, like iron towers, with a hideous mask on their faces, revealing only two dark eyes.

Thunder shook the sky, the earth trembled, and snow rumbled.

The first rider was even more burly, like a small giant, holding a giant chopping knife in one hand.

Charging on horseback, like a humanoid beast.

"Boom"

"Boom"

Heaven and earth were colorless, and more than a thousand Yan rode fifty zhang away from the convoy, and they never stopped.

The commander of the forbidden army instinctively raised his spear, his expression was nervous, and his heart was even more raised to his throat.

"Tame"

With ten zhang left, the vulture bone violently pulled the reins, and the war horse's four hooves slid forward for several zhang, stopping steadily in front of Lin Xuan.

"Despise the bones, come to meet the great general."

Behind him, thousands of horses lined up, neatly and uniformly, armor and knives and guns lined up, black wolves fluttering in the wind and snow, and the grinning wolf heads exuded a terrible aura.

See the Great General. "

All the knights dismounted in unison and got down on one knee.

"Shouted wrong."

The broken army's face was indifferent: "It should be called Yanhou." "

"Despicable Vulture Bone, I have seen Yan Hou."

The vulture bone's eyes were feverish, and those warriors riding wolves were also extremely excited.

"Get up."

Lin Xuan waved his hand and grinned.

"Brother, I don't need you anymore."

The vulture bone got up and patted the shoulder of the forbidden army thousand-year-old, the fan-like palm, and the thousand-year-old grinned, only feeling that the bones all over his body were about to fall apart.

Hurriedly said, "There is General Law." "

These Yan horses are too fierce, and the thousand soldiers are weak in their hearts, and they dare not stay for a long time, so they will summon the forbidden army to leave.

But he was stopped by Lin Xuan: "Don't worry. "

"What is Hou Ye's order?"

A thousand men hugged their fists.

"This half month, you brothers have worked hard."

Lin Xuan shouted: "Everyone go and pick a jade piece to take away." "

The broken army rode over, dragged five boxes down from the car, put them on the ground and opened: "Yours." "

"Thank you Hou Ye."

The Thousand Soldier looked ecstatic.

The rest of the forbidden sergeants were also excited.

"Go."

Lin Xuan laughed loudly, and the horse rode away, and the pawns riding the wolf escorted dozens of carts of goods, followed closely behind, and went straight to Qingyu Pass.

"Congratulations to Hou Ye."

Hundreds of forbidden troops drank in unison.

The commander looked at the sluggish soldiers around him, took a box from the ground and put it away, and said to them: "For the rest, the brethren have divided the pool." "

In the midst of the wind and snow

The majestic green pass looms, war drums roar, trumpets loud, thousands of horses galloping, and the earth trembles.

Finally, before dark, he entered the Qingyu Pass.

Breathing the air of Yandi and feeling the biting cold wind, Lin Xuan only felt refreshed.

After temporarily resting in Guanxi for the night, the next morning, he continued north and went straight to Yanzhou City.

meanwhile

The news of Lin Xuan's marquis also spread back to the Zhenbei General Mansion.

Inside the hall

Mu Qing'er, Meng Jiao, Tian Hu, Hu Yanlie, Xue Toutuo, Jia Xiong, Zhuge Qing, Wang Qing, Lin Ruhai, and other henchmen are there.
