Chapter 424 Leaving Beijing

In terms of origin, they were all children of princes and marquis. He Qi and Jiang Yao had made a marriage agreement, and Zheng Qinghuai and Ye Lingyun had not yet been engaged, so they were both in front of the emperor. The family had not been engaged to them for a long time, so it was probably just to wait for Emperor Xuanhe to choose the son-in-law for Princess Kangning.

As a result, Emperor Xuanhe chose Zhu Qijue.

What is better than Zhu Qijue?

There is only one answer!

Beautiful!

Zheng Qinghuai and Ye Lingyun were happy for Zhu Qijue, while secretly feeling sour in their hearts.

Ye Lingyun still wanted to have a little face and was embarrassed to show it. Zheng Qinghuai was born with a silly smile. Seeing Zhu Qijue's expression of a golden ingot falling from the sky, he couldn't help but jokingly.

Zhu Qijue quickly came to his senses, kicked Zheng Qinghuai bluntly, and laughed and scolded: "Go to you!"

Several people were used to laughing and making fun of each other. Zheng Qinghuai was kicked to the ground, and he turned around and deliberately showed a look of jealousy. He gritted his teeth and greeted Ye Lingyun: "Ye Si, let's go together! Beat the future second prince consort again."

Ye Lingyun was so happy that he rushed forward, screaming and shouting.

He Qi let them make a fuss for a while before laughing and saying, "You two are almost the same."

"Qi Jue was favored by the emperor and promised Princess Kangning. This is a great joy. Today we should have celebrated Qi Jue well. However, we will set off to leave Beijing tomorrow, so it is not advisable to drink. We can only use tea instead of wine."

Everyone agreed with a smile.

At noon that day, Zhu Qijue was fed several pots of tea and ran to the cottage several times. The bad friends were overjoyed and laughed loudly.

...

In the early morning of the next day, a carriage left the palace, left the palace gate, walked onto the official road, and headed towards the border thousands of miles away.

The Tatar Prince Yuan Silan sat in the carriage and did not show up. The carriage was Yuan Silan's personal soldiers.

These personal soldiers were imprisoned in the capital for more than a year, and each of them felt very frustrated. At this time, they were riding horses, carrying long swords around their waists, and their eyes were sharp and fierce.

Compared with the fierce and exposed Tatar cavalry, the imperial guards of Dachu were much calmer and calmer. These two thousand imperial guards were personally selected by Zhenyuan Hou.

The two hundred imperial guards were the list set by He Qi himself. Zhu Qijue and others were on the list.

In terms of military appearance and style, the imperial guards were better. They were all children of the generals of the Great Chu, who had been practicing martial arts since childhood, had a clean fortune, and were loyal to the emperor.

When it comes to employment, of course you have to choose what you can trust.

Pei Zhang originally intended to go to the border, so he went to He Qi privately, but He Qi clearly refused: "Pei Zhang, don't say secret words in front of the Mingren. This time, you and I can only go to one of you. The Prince of Tatar took the initiative to speak and let me accompany you. You can completely dispel this idea!"

Pei Zhang held back his anger and whispered: "This is what His Highness the Second Prince means. The Prince of Tatar is the cousin of His Highness the Second Prince and the fiance of Princess Shouning. He went to the border for thousands of miles away, and was to persuade the surrender of the Tatar cavalry. His Highness the Second Prince is worried about the safety of the Prince of Tatar, so he wants me to walk with him..."

He Qi raised his eyebrows and sneered, interrupting Pei Zhang without hesitation: "It's okay if you say these high-sounding words to others, you don't need to say more in front of me."

"I'm still saying the same thing. You and I can only go one. If I go, you can't go."

"If the Second Prince is angry and unhappy, let His Highness come to see me in person."

Pei Zhang was so angry that his face turned pale and he left with his sleeves.

I think the second prince was also very angry. He Qi clearly did not buy the second prince's account and stood firmly on the side of the sixth prince.

However, the second prince finally endured the suffocation and did not go to He Qi.

He Qi is the confidant of the emperor and the prince of the Pingguo. Both identities are of great importance. The second prince cannot win over and is unwilling to commit crimes on the contrary.

"Cousin!" Zhu Qijue came over and asked in a low voice: "The carriage behind has not been moving. Do you want to go over and take a look?"

While speaking, he nodded at the carriage that Yuan Silan was riding.

Since leaving the palace, Yuan Silan has been sitting in the carriage, never showing her face, and has gone too far. Zhu Qijue stared at Yuan Silan's carriage all the way, almost staring at him in a pair of eyes.

A hint of coldness flashed in He Qi's eyes and said lightly: "I just set off today and leave Beijing, so there will be no movement. Just stare at me in secret, so you don't have to go there, so as not to attract too much attention."

That's true.

Zhu Qijue nodded and responded.

He Qi glanced at Zhu Qijue, and suddenly pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled. Zhu Qijue was so angry that he was so happy: "Cousin, why are you watching me like this?"

He Qi whispered: "I suddenly remembered something just now. The emperor issued an order yesterday to marry you and Princess Corning. The Prince of Tatar is Princess Shouning's future son-in-law. Wouldn't you become a brother-in-law with him?"

Zhu Qijue: "..."

He doesn't want to be a brother-in-law with Yuan Silan!

Zhu Qijue complained silently in his heart, but he could not speak nonsense, so as not to fall into the ears of others and speak out right and wrong.

...

That night, the group rested in the inn on the official road.

No matter how big the inn was, it could not accommodate so many soldiers. Two thousand imperial guards and five hundred Tatar cavalry all set up camp tents outside the inn. Two hundred imperial guards were divided into two shifts, taking turns to guard the first and second half of the night.

When you go out, you can't be as comfortable as in the capital. The chefs in the inn are just cooking. However, everyone was hungry and tired all day long. At this time, there was a hot meal entrance and hot water to bathe, and there was nothing to be picky about.

Yuan Silan, who had been in peace for a whole day, finally started to make trouble. She sent the personal soldiers around her and asked He Qi to have a meal together, and discussed the next itinerary.

Those who come are not good, and those who are good will not come. Yuan Silan has a special identity and is posing as a prince of Tatar, but He Qi cannot refuse.

Zhu Qijue's heart tightened and he subconsciously glanced at He Qi.

He Qi raised his eyebrows and said lightly: "You go back to Your Highness and you don't have to have a meal together. So as not to face each other, it will be difficult to swallow the meal. After the meal, I will go to see Your Highness."

The Tatar soldiers who were proficient in the Great Chu dialect had long been secretly ordered to be executed by Emperor Xuanhe. Now the few personal soldiers around Yuan Silan are not so proficient in the Great Chu dialect.

However, He Qi's mockery was clear and he could understand it even if he couldn't understand it.

Tatars are naturally good at martial arts, and it is natural to show off their courage and ruthlessness. How can He Qi humiliate his master when he speaks out?

The personal soldier suddenly took a step forward, clenched his right fist and shook it in front of He Qi. A long list of Tatar words broke out from his mouth.

Zhu Qijue and others were confused when they heard this.
