Before leaving the capital, Li Zhongyi made a small request, in view of the fact that the Khitans suffered great losses in Yuguan and Runzhou, he requested that a thousand party cavalry be temporarily transferred to escort them along the way.

The party cavalry is in the capital, and they have nothing to do every day, but there are a lot of troubles, and they have long been criticized.

It's just a thousand cavalry, what big waves can you afford to turn? Fan Zhen didn't think much about it, he directly agreed, and the next day he released Tang Shu and kicked these foreign troublemakers to Li Zhongyi.

Li Zhongyi was not so worried about the Khitans going south, what he was guarding against was actually Fu Yanqing, the king of Wei.

Fu Yanqing has always been a big warlord in the north, and his old background is very disgraceful, and he has some collusion with the Khitans in private.

Li Zhongyi brought a thousand brave horses, and it was impossible to destroy Fu Yanqing, his purpose was just that he was not afraid of 10,000, just in case.

Be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years, facing the Fu family with unknown intentions, Li Zhongyi felt that the more strength he had, the more chance he had to save his life.

Now in the Great Zhou, because of the horse source of the Hetao, coupled with the tens of thousands of horses brought back by Li Zhongyi from the Khitan State, the extremely tense situation of war horses has been alleviated to a certain extent.

The thousand cavalry under the command of quite Chaoyong had three war horses per capita, and due to the small number of people, the preparations for the trip were quickly completed.

Three days later, Li Zhongyi reluctantly got up from the gentle township, and under the collective service of the three sisters of the Jin family, he freshened up.

This time he went north to the Daimyo's Mansion, Li Zhongyi didn't want to wronged himself, so he simply brought the three concubines of Zhu'er, Caijiao, and Peony. Due to Caijiao's bitter pleading, Li Zhongyi nodded helplessly and agreed to take the Zheng family out to relax.

After breakfast. Tang Shuyi, as in the past, personally tidied up Li Zhongyi's clothes. Tie a belt.

Outside the north gate of the capital, the angel honor guard. It is very eye-catching at the front of the queue. The two knights at the head held the twelve knots representing the supreme imperial power in their hands, followed by the ironclad warriors holding golden melons, axes, halberds, and swords.

Traveling on behalf of the prime minister as a prime minister, Li Zhongyi's guard of honor accompanied him was a mess. Yuan Sui, who was originally one hundred and eight people, swelled into a huge scale of nearly eight hundred people in the blink of an eye.

Prime Minister Fan Zhen, on behalf of the imperial court, came to the north gate in person and held a banquet to see Li Zhongyi off.

In the pavilion. Fan Zhen raised the wine cup in his hand, and said with a smile: "There is no blame for the work." The old man wished in advance that he would return to Beijing safely as soon as possible. ”

Li Zhongyi picked up the wine cup with both hands and said with a smile: "Winter is coming, and I want to return to Beijing as soon as possible to restore my life." ”

Fan Zhen faintly felt that Li Zhongyi had something to say, and he thought that Li Zhongyi was worried about the lack of safety in the dragon body today, but he didn't think much about it.

Since ancient times. is a son of heaven and a courtier, if Chai Rong falls, the Empress Dowager Fu will be in power, and he will be the prime minister of someone. Steady as Mount Tai, there's nothing to worry about.

"Congratulations to the angels out of Beijing!" When Li Zhongyi was about to board the train and go north, hundreds of low-grade civil and military officials. Following the loud chanting of the salute officer, Hula lala knelt down in a large area.

"Let's go!" With Li Yunxiao's order. In the sound of majestic drums, Li Zhongyi's carriage. Slowly starting, the mighty drive towards the ferry on the bank of the Yellow River.

After the group crossed the Yellow River and landed on the opposite bank, Li Zhongyi slowly stepped across the gangplank, and saw quite a super brave head held high, like a javelin, poking straight at the side of the road.

"The young general is quite brave, meet the father-in-law." Seeing Li Zhongyi walking towards him, quite Chaoyong hurriedly bowed his head and gave a standard chest-beating military salute.

Li Zhongyi's eyes flashed slightly, this military aristocrat from the eighth surname of the party was obedient.

Back then, when Li Zhongyi was in charge of Lingzhou in the northwest, he abolished the kneeling ceremony early, and the officers and men in the army, regardless of their positions, only beat their chests.

It's just that for the party cavalry, the military salute promulgated by Li Zhongyi is mainly a sword skimming and hat taking off, and there is no hard and fast rule, and the chest must be beaten.

When Li Zhongyi entered the Khitan in the north, quite Chaoyong always performed the sword salute, but it was also decent.

However, after Li Zhongyi captured Yuguan and Runzhou, and even defeated the elite Khitan Shan army east of Yingzhou, he took the initiative to learn to beat his chest.

Moreover, the Chinese dialect that is quite brave is smoother and smoother the more he speaks, and he has obviously worked hard.

Hehe, this kid is quite super brave, and he is also afraid of power but not virtuous, Li Zhongyi knows it in his heart, but it is impossible to say it.

Li Zhongyi had no reason to allow for Quite Chaoyong's posture of complete surrender, he raised his hand and gently patted Quite Chaoyong's shoulder, and asked him with a smile: "I'll take a table for you, okay?" ”

quite a super brave was so excited that he almost burst into tears, and choked up: "The gift is given the words, and the young general is overjoyed." ”

Li Zhongyi nodded, looked up at the clear blue sky, thought for a while, and said with a smile: "Why don't you call it 'Shunzhi'?" ”

Although quite Chaoyong does not understand Sinology, he is very smart, just by literally, he understands the deep meaning of the words given by Li Zhongyi: Shunzhi, Shunzhi, isn't it Shun Li Xianggong?

"The door is smooth, thank you for your kindness." quite Chaoyong knelt on his knees very obediently and knocked his head three times, which can be regarded as confirming the identity of Li Zhongyi's lackey.

Quite Chaoyong has lived in the capital for several years, and the rules of the Han people also know some of them, and the person who gives the word and the person who is given it are like a master and apprentice.

In the world of the Han people, betraying Shi'en is definitely a great sin, and no one dares to commit it easily.

Due to the etiquette of the prime minister's travel, Li Zhongyi did delay a lot of work in Kaifeng City. The Fu family on the side of the Daimyo's Mansion has been looking south, looking forward to Li Zhongyi's early arrival.

Li Zhongyi has no intention of slapping the Fu family's sycophants, what kind of speed is the ordinary angel going out of Beijing, and on this basis, it will be slowed down by a third.

In the spacious and luxurious carriage, Li Zhongyi called three concubines dressed as maids and maids to play mahjong with him.

For a while, Li Yunxiao, who was guarding next to the carriage, heard the crisp sound of rubbing mahjong in his ears.

Li Zhongyi is not short of money, and none of the concubines who went north to the Daimyo Mansion with him are short of flowers.

According to the rules of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Li Zhongyi's concubine's monthly money (pocket money) is two hundred copper coins. What is the concept of 200 yuan of pocket money? Hehe, it is equivalent to the entire income of ordinary people in the capital, who have not eaten or drunk for more than five years.

That's it, as Li Zhongyi's women, they have the usual expenses of new clothes, new shoes and new fat powder every month, and they can add a whole set of new jewelry every quarter, and other special expenses for beauty and makeup.

In addition, it is impossible for the concubines to be without the service of the maids, which is another large expense.

The Yahuan of the Prime Minister's Mansion is divided into five grades and ten levels, and the monthly cases range from fifty to consistent.

Li Dahe, Li Zhongyi and Mrs. Xue, the three most prominent scholars and maids around the serious master, were designated as special and enjoyed a monthly rate of 50 times.

According to the statistics of Tang Shuyi, the lady in charge, any concubine raised by Li Zhongyi has enough monthly daily expenses to sell more than ten beautiful yellow flower daughters.

Li Zhongyi remembered very clearly, he was stunned at the time, cough, Tang Shuyi even had a clear grasp of this kind of price, cough, he deserved to be a good hand in managing the family's finances.

Since gambling money has lost its appeal, Li Zhongyi has a flash of inspiration in his mind, and he simply has a cheeky face and proposes aggressively: "Come, come, come, let's change the way we play, lose a game, and take off a piece of clothing." ”

After hearing this, Peony was not ashamed, but a burst of joy, she was worried that there was no chance of conception, so she naturally raised her hands happily in agreement.

Caijiao, this little girl, although she has not been broken, in fact, under the education of Li Zhongyi, a strange Shu Xiao, she has long been too familiar to be ripe, and she has no opinions.

As for the little lady Zhu'er, she has received special education for a short time, her face is very thin, she bows her head with a twist and pinch, she is silent, and she is so ashamed that the roots of her ears almost ooze blood.

The journey is too lonely and boring, Li Zhongyi was originally trying to be happy, the carriage is full of his women, why haven't you seen it?

Since Zhu'er took the initiative to send the opportunity to tease the door, where would Li Zhongyi let it go?

"Hehe, it's decided, no objections." Li Zhongyi knows the character of the little lady Zhu'er very well, if you discuss it with her, you will definitely not be successful, and she will eat the order.

Speaking of mahjong, Li Zhongyi is good at many kinds of plays, including the red Lai Zi Kong, the learning flow into a river, and the amazing multiples of the big three yuan and the big four joys in Guangdong.

However, as far as Li Zhongyi's heart is concerned, he personally prefers the unpredictable Hongzhong Lai Zikong.

Therefore, the women in the backyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion also learn this kind of play.

In the past, when Li Zhongyi led the troops to the battle, the women in the family would gather together almost every day to play mahjong if they wanted to pass the difficult days.

On the contrary, it is Li Zhongyi, because there are too many trivial matters, and he has not been on the hemp field for a long time.

In the first hand, Li Zhongyi lost, he was also single, and he took off the outermost purple robe with his own hands.

Rubbing mahjong this thing, unless it is out of the old man, under normal circumstances, bad luck, will lose very badly.

Fortunately, when Li Zhongyi was the vice president before, he practiced a good hand, and he was good at hemp art.

The second, the peony lost the most, she didn't say a word, took off a small emerald armor on the cover, and threw it aside.

Li Zhongyi sat cross-legged and sat among the flowers, playing cards while admiring the beauty of his own woman.

Although they are all old husbands and wives, in the slightly dim carriage, Li Zhongyi admired the women's gradually revealing snow skin, and the mood was simply great!

The little lady of Zhu'er hesitated to release an eight-cylinder, and Li Zhongyi smiled happily: "Three-bar bumper hu, you lost again." ”

"Don't be a lai, you clicked, what should you do, you should know it in your heart, right?" Li Zhongyi saw that the little lady Zhu'er looked a little reluctant, so he hurriedly added a fire, added a pile of firewood, and did not allow her to retreat.

Li Yunxiao, who was in charge of guarding outside the car, was speechless and looked up to the sky, secretly sighing, "My lord, can it be more ridiculous?" ”

Sikong works hard, but the monthly pass is too scarce and there is no motivation!
