Chapter 343 Returning to Beijing
The eleventh year of Hongde calendar, winter.
This year's winter wind is much earlier than in previous years.
At the end of October, a rare heavy snow fell, which directly turned the entire Kyoto into a world of ice and snow.
The next morning.
The soldiers guarding the city shrank and fought against the cold, and soon opened the gate of Shenjing City.
A convoy arrived in the distance.
Several huge military flags embroidered with the word "Jia" are particularly conspicuous in the distant silvery white area.
Just as the soldiers guarding the gate were concentrating on checking, the convoy stopped not far from the city gate, and a cavalry in front of him was constantly heading straight to the city gate.
It's Lai Fu, it's Lai Fu.
Amid the crisp sound of horse hooves, Lai Fu quickly rushed to the front of the door.
Then he took out a bronze waist card the size of a palm from the thick leather jacket and threw it directly into the arms of the commander guarding the city.
"General Jia Jing, the general of Zhenxi, returned to the capital with his order, please let it go immediately!"
After the sergeant took the waist card and identified the authenticity, he hurriedly ordered his soldiers to "Come away from the door and ask the nobleman to enter the city first!"
"yes!"
Many soldiers naturally did not dare to neglect these situations.
More than a dozen soldiers worked together to quickly move away the objects blocking the road, such as the horses and other objects. Then several people were assigned inside and outside the city gate, asking the civilians waiting to enter the city to lean on the side for the time being, so as not to bump into the nobles.
In a short while, everything was arranged.
After taking over the waist card that the commander respectfully returned, Lai Fu immediately ordered the convoy to start entering the city.
The first to take the lead were heavy cavalrymen with thirty or forty men and horses, with more than ten archers and cavalrymen on both sides following each side.
Behind is a giant carriage two meters tall.
The carriage is three meters long and nearly two meters wide, with six sturdy wheels under it. In this era when only wooden carriages were found, it was a giant among carriages.
Although the carriage was dusty, it can still be seen that the carriage was newly built and it was only painted with a layer of varnish on it, and the overall color of the log remains.
In front of the carriage are four extremely tall and strong horses.
Such a BMW is used to pull a cart, and it is heartbroken to all the people who know horses that they meet along the way.
They all secretly hated in their hearts. Such a BMW's good horse fell into the hands of the owner of the carriage, which was like a secret bead!
Let’s talk about going back to the city gate.
Under the urging of the coachman, four horses pulled a huge carriage and slowly entered through the city gate.
Many people who had been in and out of the country had already leaned against one side and avoided and quit.
This is not allowed to avoid it.
Because the huge carriage alone almost filled the entire city gate.
If you squeeze into the city gate, wouldn’t you be crushed by the wheel?
Looking further to the back of the team, there were more than a hundred carriages with the small flag of "Jia", lined up in a long convoy, and were neatly and quickly entering the Shenjing City.
The carriages were all maids and wives from Jia Jing's mansion, as well as the slightly older servants and servants.
As for the young boys, they were wearing thick cotton robes and fur coats, riding on top of tall horses, and sturdyly protecting both sides of the convoy.
They have been waiting for this moment of sensation!
As for the Canglang under Jia Jing's command and more than 20 angel troops, they had already returned to Jia Jing's Marquis' Mansion two days in advance with Shuan Zhu.
The convoy walked for two or three cups of tea, and the people waiting inside and outside the city gate saw more than 20 heavy armored cavalrymen in Oshi and dozens of archers.
In addition, at Jia Jing's instructions, Lai Fu brought two servants and two baskets of copper coins to the inside and outside the city gate, and scattered them to the common people who had been waiting for a lot of time.
He also apologized to everyone, saying that he delayed everyone's time to enter the city, and some big money was used as a gift for everyone to have a tea break.
Finally, because the soldiers guarding the gate were sensible, Lai Fu left a large handful of scattered silver, so that the soldiers guarding the gate could all get two taels of silver, and then he led two servants to catch up with the convoy in front of him.
There was a lot of gratitude left behind me.
…………
Let’s talk about the front of the convoy.
Jia Jing and his party had just entered the city gate,
In the carriage, Jia Jing saw Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai looking out from the gaps in the curtains frequently, and couldn't help but ask with a smile: "Did you still miss Shenjing very much this last year?"
Lin Daiyu couldn't help laughing when she heard this and said, "Why isn't it? After all, she has been in the Shenjing since she was a child, and she has been around for many years now. How can she not miss and miss her?"
While the three were talking, two people dressed in brocade robes and were dressed as housekeepers, and hurried over the number of carriages.
When I saw the huge convoy, I was shocked.
Then he hurriedly brought the servants to the front and greeted him, "Zhou Rui/Lin Zhixiao, please pay tribute to the prince's wife! We welcome you late, please forgive me!"
There was also a sound of getting up and getting out of the carriage opposite.
After hearing the movement outside, Jia Jing lifted the curtain of the wind in front of him without waiting for the people in the carriage to get out, and ordered: "Get up, go back home first!"
Following the gap in the door curtain that Jia Jing lifted, a gust of cold wind rushed into the carriage, causing everyone inside to be shocked.
Outside, when he heard Jia Jing's words, Zhou Rui, Lin Zhixiao and his servants all responded, "Yes!"
The people in the carriage opposite also sat back again. Then Zhou Rui and Lin Zhixiao all stood up quickly and led the convoy straight to Ningrong Street without mentioning it.
Another cold wind whistled past outside, causing the flags outside to roar.
Listening to the wind outside and thinking of the silver-covered appearance, Jia Jing couldn't help but sigh, "This is the end of October, and it's already snowing like this. It's too early to be cold this year!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Daiyu couldn't help but suggest, "When we go home and settle down, we will set up a few porridge sheds to help those poor families who can't afford to eat, which is also accumulating good deeds!"
Xue Baochai also nodded repeatedly.
The two girls then turned their eyes to Jia Jing, obviously waiting for Jia Jing to agree.
Seeing this, Jia Jing smiled and said, "If you want to set up a porridge stand, do it. What else do you have to tell me about this little thing?"
Paused.
Jia Jing added: "There is only one thing you need to pay attention to, that is, when serving porridge, you must send more kids to it. First, to maintain order, and second, to add more around you. Don't let those who are interested take advantage of your kindness!"
After hearing Jia Jing's words, Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai couldn't help but think of the fact that on the way to come, Jia Jing talked about his extraordinary promotion to the title of prince and then obtained the fiefdom again.
Speaking of Shenjing, there must be someone waiting to find fault.
Daiyu Baochai couldn't help but regret the decision just now, and said hurriedly: "Otherwise, let's forget about this matter, so as not to ask someone to use it for trouble for you!"
"What's the matter with this?"
Jia Jing couldn't help laughing when he heard this, "Just just asked you to be more careful and don't be used by others. Finally, he gave porridge and revenge, which made you both angry.
As for the things in the court, they are just clowns. Master, I will kill you when you blow it. Don’t worry!”
After some explanation, Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai felt relieved.
It was at this moment that Lai Fu outside reported, "Master, Wu Hou's Mansion has arrived!"
Chapter completed!
