Chapter 627 Zhang Julu’s true feelings are revealed, the old emperor patrolled the Yanbao at night
The leader among the seven or eight riders had a strange face, with a pale face, looking like he could not bear the cold winter in the north, and was wearing a thick fox fur from the Liaodong tribute. He was probably older and had already warmed his brilliance to a very restrained look, without any sense of dominance. Except for Li Chulin and Li Yuanya, no one in Yanbao knew the identity of this graceful man, but others still saw clues through the brilliant lights and the corner of their eyes. The cavalry that served as a servant behind the man turned out to be the only Dazhu Kingdom in Liyang – General Gu Jiantang.
The members of the Li family kneeling on the ground, except for the ignorant boy and the ignorant child, all guessed the identity of the man. For a moment, their eyes were awe-inspiring but also hot and proud. What a great honor to let this distinguished guest visit, and how glorious it is perhaps because he was mentioned by Gu Jiantang before, Li Chulin and Li Yuanya just knelt down to greet him, without adding anything to his name. The man turned over and dismounted, and Wen Yan smiled and said, “The sky is cold in the north, and the earth is cold. Moreover, the “Book of Rites” says ‘Eighty sticks in the court’. The old castle lord quickly get up, and no one else kneels.”
Six cavalry behind him dismounted at the same time. General Gu Jiantang, who was wearing light armor and sword, silently stepped forward to help the man lead the horse.
Li Chulin stood up carefully, and his withered and majestic vicissitudes of life were like every wrinkle gap, emitting a strange brilliance. The particularly tall old man still bent over after getting up, probably not daring to let the man who was five steps away raise his head and speak. Just in terms of physical condition, Li Chulin, who is still strong even though he is 80 years old, is really more like a “young man” than the man in front of him. At least Li Chulin will give outsiders a heroic momentum that is not less powerful than the past, and the guests who visited Yanbao late at night seemed to be tired, especially against the invisible backdrop of the great martial arts master Gu Jiantang, he became more and more dull.
As the man moved forward, the team began to break down and there was also suspicion of being the leader. The man in the fur walked in front and called on the old fortress lord Li Chulin to walk together. Gu Jiantang held a horse in one hand and followed him, then Li Yuanya. The four of them slowly walked in the front, then the five cavalry each holding heavy troops on the northern line of the dynasty, and finally the old and young Li family.
Because the five people led the horses were separated from their sight, the Li family, who had no choice but to join in the fun and familiar faces, began to look at these backs. The old man from Yanbao, who had a sharp vision, recognized most of the time and guessed the rest, was inevitably shocked. All of these five people are military figures called the General of Real Power, and the lowest official position is also the fourth rank. It can be said that if these five people died in Yanbao, then the two Liaobei lines would be half paralyzed, but Gu Jiantang, who has the best sword in the world, is the best sword in the world, and these five generals should be able to die.
In addition to being high and powerful, these five cavalry have another common point, which is that they compare with Yang Shenxing and Yan Zhenchun.Although some veterans in the Spring and Autumn Period were slightly inferior in combat and even less famous, they were better than young, and the oldest was less than fifty years old, and the youngest was only in their early thirties. The border battlefield is much less important than the dynasty officialdom, relying on age and qualifications, so it can be said that these five people are destined to become the future pillars of the Liyang court in the future. Maybe the next Minister of War in Tai’an City will stand out from among them.
The man walked on a flat road paved with large bluestone slabs, looked up at the several fire dragons stretching up the lanterns and torches, and sighed softly: “This is the first time I have entered Jizhou in my life, and I should have come earlier. My Zhao family won the world immediately. I go to the diligent room to teach the Zhao family’s children, and always say that I can’t slack off and not be misled by the ancients. I believe that after winning the world immediately, I will dismount and defend the world, and continue to govern the world on the back of the horse. I said that, but I don’t seem to have done a good job, and I teach by words and deeds. I think some Zhao family’s children are more difficult to attach importance to military and border affairs like the ancestors of the family.”
The old fox Li Chulin, who has cultivated into a spirit, dare not interfere in the emperor’s housework. He can only prick up his ears and miss a word. As long as the emperor who visited privately, he will not ask questions, he will insist on listening and not talking.
This man who was so at ease that Gu Jiantang led his horse to guard was Zhao Dun who quietly drove to the border. However, when His Majesty the Emperor did not issue an edict to let His Highness superintendent over the country when he left the capital, he asked the eunuch Song Tanglu, the chief eunuch in charge of the Secretariat, to Bai Guo, to make a secret edict public. The samadhi of this can make the big men in the officialdom chew a lot.
This is the first time that the old man has seen the emperor with his own eyes, but his heart is very palpitations. The Han family was executed and caused turmoil in Jizhou, and the Li family in Yanbao, which had married the Han family, was also affected by Chiyu. Li Chulin, who had not yet made a position for Li Yuanya to be the head of the family, was ruthless. Not only did he let the younger couple tie up the court in Jizhou Prefecture City, but his young children were not spared. In the end, the two children who should have been surnamed Li and their parents were together. Thinking about it so far, although Li Chulin felt a little guilty, he did not regret it at all.
