Chapter 45: The Castle Receives the Order


Xu Tianlin came out of the mansion and walked over to his war horse, and when he saw that Zhao Zhende was alone, he asked: "Why are you the only one Lingyun today?"

Zhao Zhende handed the reins to Xu Tianlin: "Lingyun is going to accompany the old lady to incense and repay her vows today, and by the way, choose a good day and an auspicious day."

Xu Tianlin took the reins of the horse, turned over on the horse, and teased: "You kid finally got what he wanted." ” Zhao Zhende was happy: "I am immortal in great calamity, and there will be blessings in the future." ” Xu Tianlin turned the horse's head: "Don't be complacent, get on the horse quickly." ” Zhao Zhende looked at the door of the mansion and looked puzzled: "Today, don't we wait for Xiaoyu to walk together?"

"She's not feeling well, and she's not going to the barracks today."

Xu Tianlin said, his eyes inadvertently flashed a trace of shame.

Zhao Zhende's eyes rolled: "Xiaoyu is unwell, how did the general know?"

Xu Tianlin's sword raised his eyebrows, his face couldn't help but turn red, and his voice was solemn: "How did General Ben know that he still needs to show you nonsense, hurry up and follow me to the barracks." ” Zhao Zhende didn't dare to say much, turned over on the horse, looked at the back of Xu Tianlin galloping forward, and muttered softly: "I just asked casually, why is my face still red?"

Xu Tianlin was looking through the paperwork in the camp tent, and Zhao Zhende was standing behind him.

"Report to the general," a soldier outside the tent shouted loudly.

Zhao Zhende walked to the tent door and raised the tent curtain: "What is the report?"

The soldier still knelt on the ground, and his voice was loud: "Report to the general, report urgently ahead."

His Royal Highness King Shu personally obeyed the emperor's holy decree, has gone to the Wuli Pavilion outside the city, and can enter Yizhou City in a short time, please hurry to the city to welcome His Royal Highness King Shu's decree. ” Xu Tianlin hurriedly got up when he heard this: "His Royal Highness King Shu came here in person, and I can't slack off."

Zhende, follow me immediately to the city to greet His Royal Highness King Shu. ” Under the city of Yizhou, the gate was open, and two teams of soldiers lined up on both sides.

Xu Tianlin was dressed in military uniform, standing majestically at the front of the team, his expression was solemn, looking into the distance.

On the wide mountain road in the distance, a team of chariots and horses came.

At the front of the procession were relying on the pennants fluttering, and the waiters on both sides were dressed in brilliant clothes.

What a solemn royal style.

A man dressed in a dark python robe, with an elegant temperament and a majestic bearing, rode a tall horse, and walked calmly in front of the chariot.

The canopy on the chariot hung low, the veil danced lightly, and there sat a young girl with a light figure and a gorgeous dress.

When Xu Tianlin was still a little away from the convoy, he bowed down and bowed: "Zhenxi General Xu Tianlin greets His Royal Highness King Shu." ” The man in the dark python robe grabbed the reins of the horse, showed a pleasant smile on his face, turned over and dismounted, walked to Xu Tianlin, and supported each other with both hands: "General Xu, don't be polite." ” Xu Tianlin got up and bowed and clenched his fists: "His Royal Highness King Shu came to Yizhou City in person, there must be something important to do, and the minister Xu Tianlin is willing to listen to His Highness's dispatch." ” King Shu was still smiling, and stretched out his hand: "This king does have something important, but this important matter is related to General Xu." ” Xu Tianlin was slightly stunned: "It is related to the minister" King Shu raised his right hand, and a eunuch approached with a tray of yellow brocade, bowed down and held the tray high in front of King Shu.

King Shu picked up the holy decree in the tray with both hands, and said loudly: "Xu Tianlin, the general of Zhenxi, take the decree" Xu Tianlin led his subordinates to kneel and receive the order: "Minister Xu Tianlin received the order" King Shu slowly unfolded the holy decree and read it aloud: "Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict says: Xu Tianlin, the general of Zhenxi, governs Yizhou and does his duty, and everything must be respectful."

This time, an epidemic suddenly appeared in the military camp, and Xu Tianlin did not mess up in the face of danger, and took the opportunity to do so, and the results were remarkable.

This move is really an example of the first army, and it has won the hearts of the people.

Give 1,000 taels of gold and 10,000 stones of military rations as a reward.

Chin this" Xu Tianlin once again led the crowd to bow deeply: "Long live Emperor Xie Wu, long live, long live, long live" King Shu put the holy decree back away, and handed it to Xu Tianlin with both hands: "Congratulations to General Xu." ” Xu Tianlin took the holy decree with both hands, raised his head high, and saluted King Shu again: "Thank you to His Royal Highness King Shu."

After speaking, he handed the holy decree to Zhao Zhende, stretched out one hand to the city gate, and turned his head to look at King Shu: "His Royal Highness King Shu, the minister has already arranged the post house, please enter the city." ” King Shu showed a mysterious smile: "General Xu, don't worry, there is still an old man who wants to meet you."

As he spoke, he turned around and whispered to the girl in the chariot: "Hey, your Tianlin brother is here, and he hasn't come out to see him yet."

The veil of the chariot was slowly picked open by the maid standing next to the car, and a girl with a beautiful appearance and a dignified and elegant temperament was sitting in the car, looking at Xu Tianlin with a sweet smile on her face.

After Xu Tianlin saw the appearance of the girl in the chariot, he stepped forward and knelt on the ground: "Minister Xu Tianlin meets Her Royal Highness Princess Yidu." ” Princess Yidu raised her jade hand: "Brother Tianlin, you don't have to be polite." ” Xu Tianlin got up and looked at Princess Yidu: "Princess, why don't you work hard and come all the way to Yizhou."

King Shu didn't wait for Princess Yidu to answer, so he quipped: "As long as I can see you, no matter how far away she is, she won't be disgusted." ” Princess Yidu pursed her lips and looked at King Shu with an impatient look in her eyes: "What's the matter, I haven't seen Brother Tianlin for half a year, can't I come to see him?"

"Brother Wang, do I dare to say no" After King Shu finished teasing Princess Yidu, he turned his face to look at Xu Tianlin: "As soon as Yi'er heard that I was going to come to Yizhou to announce the decree, she stalked me to death, and I had to bring her to come with me to congratulate you."

You know, I love my sister the most, and I can't resist her, so I brought her with me. ” Xu Tianlin bowed and saluted: "How dare the minister bother His Royal Highness King Shu and His Royal Highness the Princess, I am really flattered." ” King Shu waved his hand: "This king came in person this time, in addition to announcing the decree, there is one more thing I want to ask General Xu for advice and verification." ” "His Royal Highness King Shu has any matter, please give me the instructions, and the ministers will follow the work of dogs and horses."

King Shu pointed to the city gate: "General Xu, let's talk as we go." ” Xu Tianlin accompanied King Shu and Princess Yidu to ride slowly in the direction of the post house.

King Shu looked at the sky in the distance and asked: "General Xu, you have been in this southwest frontier for several years, and you have dealt with the Nanzhao people for several years, what do you think of Nanzhao?"

Xu Tianlin was slightly stunned: "Is His Royal Highness King Shu asking how the military defense of Nanzhao is doing?"

King Shu shook his head slightly: "No, I want to hear what you think about the matter of Nanzhao's envoy to my Tang Dynasty this time."

"Nanzhao sent me to the Tang Dynasty and didn't understand what His Royal Highness King Shu meant."

King Shu had a meaningful smile on his face: "The prince of Nanzhao came to Chang'an with his envoys and met the emperor.

He expressed to the emperor that he had rebelled against the Tang Dynasty, and Cao Yuanyi also tried his best to protect it.

The emperor cares about the world and society, and also has the intention of re-entrusting Nanzhao as my Tang Dynasty's vassal country.

But I was afraid that Nanzhao would be treacherous and changeable, so I was specially sent to Yizhou.

A commendation for General Xu as a sign of grace.

The second is to investigate whether the heart of Nanzhao is unswerving. ” King Shu looked at Xu Tianlin: "General Xu, what do you think of Nanzhao's intention to belong to my Tang Dynasty this time?"
