Xingqing Mansion, summer palace.
Li Liangzuo was reviewing the folds in the imperial study, and Xiao Zhuozi came to Li Liangzuo's side and said, "Your Majesty, I just got an eight-hundred-mile expedited to say that Yang Kai is back." ” "What are you talking about, Yang Kai is back," Li Liangzuo said with some shock; "It's been four years, I thought this kid wouldn't come back, but I didn't expect to come back today, it's great, it's really good; What else was said in the newspaper, and the express report was for me to hear. ” "Your Majesty, the newspaper also said that there was also a Roman missionary from Europa who came back with Lord Yang, saying that he had come to spread Catholicism with the death of the Pope."
"Catholicism, it's good to think about it, do you think he can spread Catholicism in my Great Xia Empire," Li Liangzuo said with a smile.
"We don't even know what Catholicism is, so naturally no one will believe in Catholicism."
Xiao Zhuozi said.
"Okay, don't say these useless words, go and call Li Yue to me."
"Yes, Servant Command."
Soon Li Yue came to the imperial study, bowed to Li Liangzuo and said, "Erchen see Your Majesty." ” "Yue'er, let's get flat," Li Liangzuo got up from the dragon chair, walked to the map and said to Li Yue; "I just got the report, Yang Kai's kid has come back, is rushing here, the southern areas of Xizhou Province and Hexi Province have not been very calm recently, especially the map bordering Tubo, there are often horse bandits, I am worried about Yang Kai's safety, I want you to lead a cavalry force to meet it, Yang Kai is carrying something as important, be sure to bring it back to me."
"Yes, the retainer is commanded."
Li Yue immediately took over the military order.
After finishing the business, Li Liangzuo asked Li Yue again: "How is Xin'er doing, and I don't have time to see her." ” "Ever since the princess became pregnant, she has been vomiting and can't eat anything, so she can only take some supplements."
"During the time you left, I sent someone to take Xin'er back to the palace to live for a period of time, let the concubine and the queen help take care of it, you can lead the troops well, and complete the task I gave you."
"Then Xin'er will leave it to Your Majesty."
"What are you talking about, Xin'er is a real daughter, I feel more sorry for him than you."
Li Liangzuo said; "Go ahead, as for how many soldiers and horses you will bring, you can just watch it yourself."
"The retainers retired."
After leaving the palace, Li Yue returned home and said goodbye to Li Xin, and then went to the camp to order a thousand elite cavalry and left, although this mission is not very difficult, but Li Yue can feel that he is very valued by Li Liangzuo, so the soldiers and horses selected by Li Yue are the elite of the elite; Li Yue didn't know that the reason why Li Liangzuo attached so much importance was because the map in Yang Kai's hand was not very peaceful at the junction of the Great Xia Empire and Tubo in recent times, and Li Liangzuo had to be cautious.
However, this mission was relatively smooth, Li Yue led the army in Suzhou to meet Yang Kai and his party, at this time they were protected by a team of Anxi army to the east, after the meeting, the Anxi army handed over Yang Kai and his party to Li Yue, and then returned, the next journey was all handed over to Li Yue, under the protection of Li Yue, the mission smoothly passed through the Hexi corridor, to Xingqingfu, the capital of the Great Xia Empire.
Lang Weiping saw the most elite army of the Great Xia Empire for the first time, excellent war horses, unparalleled armor, coupled with sharp weapons, this is definitely the most elite cavalry unit in the whole world, Long Weining wrote such a paragraph in his memoirs: On the way to China, we met the army sent by the Great Xia Emperor to meet us in Suzhou, which is one of the most elite Praetorian Guards of the Great Xia Empire, and the duty of this army is to defend the capital and emperor of the Great Xia Empire.
Each of them is the best of the best and the bravest of the brave; When we were about to reach Xiliangfu, we came across a group of horse bandits, and later I learned that they were from the Tibetan people on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in the southern plateau, and it was a very wonderful battle, it was a one-sided massacre, and I believe that even the bravest knights in the West could not fight such a battle; The Xia army annihilated more than 500 Tibetan cavalry with 1,000 elite cavalry, but the Xia army did not suffer any casualties; After the victory in the battle, they brutally cut off the heads of the enemy and put them all in the shape of pyramids, they called it Jingguan, in order to deter the Tibetan people who went north, they were calm and terrible about killing, they were not human at all, they were a group of devils from hell Under the protection of the Great Xia cavalry, Yang Kai and his party finally came to Xingqing Mansion, after entering the Ningxia Plain, Lang Weiping finally saw the prosperity of the Great Xia Empire, Lang Weiping wrote in his diary: "Most of the people here are wearing silk, the commerce here is very developed, the people's lives are very rich, I don't want us to have many people in the West to go hungry, their city has a large population, there are hundreds of thousands of people, I can't imagine that there is such a big city in this world" "Weichen greets Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live" In the Hanyuan Palace, Yang Kai bowed to Li Liangzuo and bowed.
Long Weiping followed behind Yang Kai, and also knelt down and shouted with a strange accent: "Long live, long live" "Let's all be even, Yang Aiqing has worked hard all these years; Yang Kai took the order. ” "Wechen is here."
"From now on, Yang Kai will be crowned as a first-class earl, and the official will worship Honglu Temple, and he will be here."
"Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live" Yang Kai knelt on the ground and saluted.
"Hurry up and tell me and Zhong Aiqing, what you have seen and heard all the way to the west" Yang Kai reported what he had seen and heard along the way to Li Liangzuo one by one, which made all the ministers present very surprised, they didn't expect that this world would be so big, it was beyond their imagination, after Yang Kai finished speaking, Li Liangzuo said to the ministers: "Today I want to be in this Hanyuan Palace, for Yang Aiqing, all Aiqing must participate."
"Obey the Order" "Let's retreat" "Your Majesty has a will, retreat from the court," Xiao Fuzi shouted loudly.
"Greetings to Your Majesty" After Li Liangzuo left, the ministers were slowly leaving; Long Weiping still stood there dumbfounded, and the magnificence of the summer palace completely shocked the missionary from the West; At this moment, Xiao Fuzi came to Yang Kai and Lang Weiping and said, "Lord Yang, Your Majesty declares that you will see you in the Imperial Garden. ” "There is a father-in-law, please ask the father-in-law to lead the way" Lang Weiping later wrote in his memoirs: "This is the first time I met the emperor of the Great Xia Empire, and I participated in the court meeting of the Great Xia Empire, and the whole process was as if the emperor had not noticed me, until the end of the court meeting, the emperor summoned me and Yang alone in his imperial garden, and the journey from Hanyuan Hall to the imperial garden was not short; There were palaces and pavilions all along the way, and I realized that this was the royal palace of the East; Compared to this palace, the Anxi Imperial Palace that I saw in Hu Si's ears is not a grade, it is not many times larger than our western palaces, compared to here, those palaces are like village mansions, I really admire the wisdom of the Easterners" Today's first update is presented, and there will be a more one later, please support us:
