Devil’s Advent

v1 Chapter 118: Meet 6 princes again

   In two days, for ordinary people, the injury can't be healed naturally, and it is true for Zheng Fan.

   But after two more days of recuperation, I can barely get armor, but it's just a racket, and it's almost impossible to pull a knife and do it.

   "The problem should not be big, after all, the Jingnan Hou should be guarded on the way back to Beijing, and there can be no intentions..."

   "Quiet!"

   Blind Son North directly blocked Liang Cheng's next words.

   "Why have you become so superstitious?" Liang Cheng said.

   "I don't think about other people's nonsense, but what kind of identity are you?

   The gypsy witch holding a crystal ball has to call you grandpa. "

   "I want to follow along." Liang Cheng said.

   "Don't think, you have gone, who is in charge of the brutal soldiers in this fortress?" The blind son Bei again rejected Liang Cheng's words.

   "What about me?" Fan Li pointed to his face.

   "At home, someone has to chop wood, otherwise it won't be enough to boil the bath water." Xianzi Bei also rejected Fan Li.

   "Oh, good." Fan Li nodded, thinking that the blind man made sense.

In fact, it’s okay because Fan Li, Tie Hanhan, is in charge. Once no one is in charge, it is easy to cause trouble. At home, the other demon kings can be scared to brows. If this is to go to the capital. It's really hard to deal with any troubles.

  Aming standing on the side has a subtle and elegant smile on his face.

He and Siniang will go to the capital with the Lord this time. To tell the truth, there is really not much that needs to be done by themselves and Siniang. Since the Lord has been ordered into his guard by Jingnanhou, there is a high probability of accommodation and food. Both of them are not with me. The reason why I go together is to leave someone who can be called if something happens.

   Of course, the biggest benefit of this is that if something happens, he and Siniang can do something in the capital. At the very least, they can be psychologically prepared.

   is not like the four who stayed in Cui Liu Fort. They always thought about whether they died suddenly while eating, sleeping or going to the toilet.

   After several treacherous experiences, the demon kings have already had a psychological shadow on the sudden death.

   "So, you still didn't talk to the Lord about the recovery of our strength and the Lord's strength?"

   Blind Zibei shook his head and said, "Wait, wait until the Lord returns from the capital. This time the matter should be very important. Don't let the Lord be distracted."

   Aming smiled "Hehe",

  道:

   "You call Acheng Bieli, but you have already done it for the second time. You left it in the movie. I just waited for him to come back and I confessed to her. Basically, I can't wait to come back."

   "Negatives make positives." Blind Beibei said shamelessly.

   You are blind, you are reasonable in what you say.

   "Okay, Siniang and the lord have come out, you can also go with them."

   Aming heard that, very gentlemanly, he made a Western-style ritual to the blind man and others.

  道:

   "Then, goodbye everyone."

  ……

The last time I took a carriage to Nanwang City, this time I was riding a horse. In the winter in the morning, although the sun was shining, the temperature was still very low, but when it came to Nanwang City, Zheng Fan was already sweating. This body was still empty. Very much.

   At the gate of the city, Zheng Fan separated from Siniang and A Ming. They entered the city alone and entered the house where Jingnan Hou lived.

   Not long after the announcement, Zheng Fan saw Du Juan approaching, with two maids behind him. The maids were holding a set of Jingnan Army-standard armor.

   The country of Yan is still dark, but the ordnance of each local army has its own characteristics. Regardless of the details, the armor of the Zhenbei Army looks darker, as if it has been frosted by the desert sand.

   The armor of the Jingnan Army appears to be brighter, more vigorous and admirable, but because of this, it lacks a real evil precipitation.

   "Master Zheng, let's take a shower and change clothes."

"Well…"

   Zheng Fan was stunned for a moment, even if he changed his military uniform, it was a reasonable thing, but he still had to take a bath?

   Does the Jingnan Army love cleanliness so much?

   But when you go to the countryside, do what you do, besides, Zheng Fan also likes to take a bath.

   It’s just taking a bath at home. Si Niang waits on the shower, and occasionally comes to a bubble bath to dredge the bones and muscles.

  In the Houfu, the servants only help you get hot water, so you have to wash it yourself.

   After taking a shower and changing out his armor, Zheng Fan found that the soldiers in the Hou Mansion were lining up to leave the mansion, obviously they were about to leave.

   Zheng Fan wanted to pull someone to ask where his guards were. He had to report it himself. Who knew that when he was about to pull someone, he heard footsteps coming from behind him, and turned his head to see if it was a cuckoo.

   "Master Zheng, get in the carriage of Lord Hou."

   "..." Zheng Fan.

   took a shower, changed clothes, and got into Hou Ye’s carriage. Zheng Fan thought he was normal, and he also felt that Hou Ye was normal, but he still had a weird feeling.

   But in the end, Zheng Fan got on the carriage. If there is a carriage or ride the carriage, his current bones can't help being bumped for a few days.

   The carriage is still the same carriage from last time, but this time there is no brazier in the carriage. Instead, there is a book case with a lot of folders on it.

   After Zheng Fan got into the carriage, Jingnan Hou didn't look up, just focused on what he had at hand.

   After a while, Dujuan also got into the carriage, sat on the side of Jingnan Hou, and accompany Jingnan Hou to deal with the zhezi.

   It's good that no one greets Zheng Fan. Zheng Fan didn't keep kneeling silly. Instead, he faced the carriage, leaned against the carriage wall, squinted, and started to doze.

   It’s just that, as we progressed, taking a nap has gradually become a very extravagant thing.

   By the side of the carriage, from time to time, a knight would approach him, and the cuckoo would hand out the folded paper, or pick up the newly delivered paper.

   This carriage is completely a mobile office.

   Du Juan didn't let himself help, Zheng Fan didn't take the initiative to do anything, and continued to be his "door god" by sticking to the wall of the car.

   After nightfall, the team began to camp, and did not choose to rely on a city to stay overnight.

   What makes Zheng Fan a little surprised is that he not only has the treatment of rubbing a car, but also the treatment of eating together.

   The food is not bad. It seems that Jingnan Hou is not a sweet potato fan. He has two stir-fries and one stew.

   Three sets of bowls and chopsticks, Jingnan Hou, Cuckoo plus Zheng Fan.

Eating with big people is a kind of "reward". Ancient emperors like to use "leave a meal" to show their favor. In fact, it is the same for later generations. Being able to sit on a table to eat is a kind of reward for the inferior. Gift.

   After the meal, the team moved on without choosing to rest.

   A candle was lit in the carriage, Jingnan Hou did not work anymore, but was reading with a book.

Zheng Fan doesn’t know exactly what book it is. There are hundreds of scholars in this world, as well as Confucianism, Buddhism, Taoism and other cultures. However, it seems that some time in the past, the world has undergone some changes, which led to Zheng Fan. Unfamiliar historical trends.

   Rhododendron was waiting for tea and some dried fruits were served.

   Jing Nanhou put down the book and said to Zheng Fan:

   "Eat."

   "If you go back to Lord Hou, I don't like this for humble positions."

   This is not modest and polite. There are really not many young people who like to eat this kind of fruit plate in Zheng Fan's previous life.

   Jing Nanhou didn't say anything, holding the book in his left hand and continuing to look at it. From time to time, his right hand picked up two dried fruits into his mouth and chewed slowly.

   Zheng Fan felt that after he got ahead, he would also ask Xue San to make this set of carriages for himself, sit in it and read a book by himself, while Si Niang was in the red sleeves beside him, and then two or three kittens were responsible for trembling underneath.

   "If you are tired, just sleep here. You have injuries and you can't stay up late."

Ok?

   Sleeping on the carriage?

   Since putting on the special armor of the guard, Zheng Fan has not gone to the guard to report, and has been taken in the car, as if he were an accompanying eunuch.

   If you come, you will be at ease.

   "Xie Hou Ye is compassionate."

   Zheng Fan was not polite anymore, lying on his side in the carriage, trying to make himself use less space.

   closed his eyes and started counting sheep.

  ……

   This kind of day lasted for several days. Except that the team would stop for a short time in the morning, midnight and evening for rest, the rest of the time was marching day and night.

   The knights are all one person and two horses, and they sleep on horsebacks in turns.

   To be honest, Zheng Fan had only seen this scene with his own barbarians, so no matter how you mentioned this Jingnan army was not really tempered by war, but it was definitely an elite.

   In the early morning of the next day, the team marched to Tiantai County, which is a county outside the capital. If you go out from Tiantai County and continue north, you can say that the capital is in sight.

  The team stayed here for a while. Everyone started to wash themselves. This is basically a customary rule. No matter which team, they stop and pick themselves up before entering Beijing.

Zheng Fan also took a bath. At this moment, he was really fortunate that he had taken a bath in the Hou Mansion before he set off in Nanwang City. Otherwise, it would be even more uncomfortable for him to be unable to take a bath for a few days. .

   Refreshing after taking a shower, Zheng Fan stood by the carriage and waited for the team to start again.

   But I saw Jingnan Hou, who was riding a ferocious beast and wearing gilt armor, came slowly.

   Jingnan Hou raised the whip in his hand and pointed at Zheng Fan.

   asked:

   "Can you ride a horse?"

   "Go back to Lord Hou, no problem."

   Although the past few days on the carriage are boring and boring, the body has also recovered a lot of vitality.

   Zheng Fan turned on his horse and followed behind Jingnanhou. The team reopened, and the Jingnan army knights also showed their best mental outlook.

   From the city wall of the capital, it was visible from the distance and finally came to the city gate. Halfway through, there were seven waves of people and horses who came here to receive and communicate. At the same time, under the south gate of the capital, the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites led the hundreds of officials to welcome the Jingnan Marquis to the capital for the emperor.

   Banners and flags are on display, there are many imperial troops, and there are crowds of people watching the lively people on the periphery.

   For a hundred years, Zhenbei and Jingnan have been the two major optimus rocks in the north and south of Dayan, and they have an irreplaceable influence in the hearts of the people of Dayan.

Although the line of Zhenbei Hou Mansion has steadily suppressed the Jingnan Hou in terms of influence, real power and even inheritance, this generation of Jingnan Hou is the younger brother of the queen, the younger brother-in-law of the sage, and his status is precious. Words.

   And Zheng Fan, who followed Jing Nanhou, witnessed with his own eyes what is domineering, what is... true honor.

  According to the etiquette process, the Book of Etiquette went forward to lead the horse, but was scared to step forward by the snort of the beast.

   Jingnan Hou let out a big laugh, did not write a letter to the Ministry of Rites, and at the same time waved his hand to indicate that the Jingnan army next to him would accompany him into the city.

   It is clear that there are still many ceremonies that have not been completed below, but Jingnan Hou chose not to cooperate.

   The road from the south gate to Tianfu has been cleared by the Forbidden Army, and the road was closed by the leaders. This is a tradition since ancient times.

   But Jing Nan Hou deliberately stopped the beast under his crotch and waved behind him.

   Zheng Fan immediately came to Jingnan Hou's side.

   "Are you hungry?"

  Before in Tiantai County, everyone was just washing themselves, but there was no food.

   "If you go back to Lord Hou, I'm hungry."

   "This is your first time in Beijing, right?"

   "Yes, Lord Hou."

   "Tell me, I want something to eat."

   "Master Hou, I heard that the roast duck at Quande Building in Beijing is the most famous."

   Jing Nanhou looked sideways at Zheng Fan,

   Zheng Fan put out his tongue solemnly and licked his lips.

   Jingnan Hou pondered slightly,

   ordered:

   "Go to Quande Building."

  ……

   Quande Building is on fire again.

   The last time the Quande Building became famous, it was when the Lord Hou from the north of Zhenbei entered Beijing and ate several ducks at his home.

   this time,

   Jingnan Hou actually entered Beijing without entering the Tianfu or the imperial palace. He first entered the Quande Building to eat ducks.

   The two top honors, the big swallow, the south and the north, have been given a job by this Quande Building. I believe that from then on, Quande Building will become a must-eat restaurant for outsiders in Beijing.

   Hou Ye is not a private visit, but just came from the Nancheng Gate, the soldiers under his command are also brought with him, so it is a matter of course to clear the building.

   A celebrity soldier entered the Quande Building and was strictly guarded.

   Zheng Fan went straight to the second floor with Jing Nanhou and sat in the box.

   Actually, there is no need for a box at all, because the entire Quande Building is now a guest in Jingnanhou.

   Jing Nan Hou is sitting, Zheng Fan is standing.

   The guy at Quandelou first served tea and some appetizers.

   Zheng Fan played the role of translator:

   "Go down to remind you, hurry up and serve food, don't let Hou Ye wait for a long time!"

   "The villain knows, the villain knows."

   Dude was frightened by Zheng Fan, his legs trembling,

   "Come on roast duck!!"

   A young man wearing a plain robe with an apron around his waist came over with a roast duck.

   Zheng Fan didn't pay attention at first, but after looking at it a few more times, his eyes glared. Who is this guy who is not the Sixth Prince?

   Obviously, Jingnan Hou also recognized the Sixth Prince.

   But he is the same generation as Emperor Yan, unless the prince of the East Palace has the crown prince to support him, the other princes are actually supposed to serve him tea and water.

   And even if the second prince enters the East Palace in the future, he probably wouldn't dare to take it up in front of his uncle with real power.

   "Uncle, I'm sorry, the duck is actually good for a long time, but this duck takes a lot of effort for my nephew.

   The duck, the choice of the duck, the control of the fireplace, marinating, heating, etc., are all previous lessons. In fact, there is the most important part, that is, the work of the duck after it is baked.

   Others, my nephew don’t worry, this is your nephew’s personally hand-picked it, you can try it. "

   Jing Nanhou nodded, and put a piece of duck meat into his mouth with chopsticks.

   In ancient times, the aunt was honored, and the children of the concubine had to call the father's wife as the mother. There was a little bit of discipline. The children in the side room or the concubine could not call themselves relatives, but had to call their aunts.

   Jingnan Hou is the younger brother of the Empress Empress, and the Empress Empress is naturally the aunt of the princes. Therefore, in name, Jingnan Hou is the uncle of all the princes.

   It's just that the other princes except for the second prince met with Jingnan Hou at most and respectfully yelled "Jingnan Hou" instead of their uncle, because they wanted a face.

   "Uncle, the taste is okay? Haha, thank you for showing your face to your nephew for supporting this shop. This is the Wuchuan peach blossom stuffed in the dry country. As the saying goes, the fine wine of Wuchuan opens the ink of Hengzhou.

   Of course, uncle, you have to be interested, this nephew Mo from Hengzhou is also ready, but my nephew is looking forward to you leaving a piece of calligraphy for my nephew in this small shop. "

   "Li Liangting ate ducks with you back then, did you leave any words?"

   Jingnan Hou asked.

"Oh, uncle, don't mention it. The old man from Zhenbei Hou came to me and ate five ducks in one go. The shopkeeper went up and asked for a picture with a face, but the old man from Zhenbei Hou took me directly. The good Shangjing paper was used to wipe my hands, and the paper in my shop was too hard to wipe clean."

"Ha ha."

"Uncle, eat first, and later there will be a duck rack soup. It is cold today, and my nephew asked them to serve it later. These are corn cakes, baked on the stove, and the taste is crispy. , You can taste it too."

   "I'm interested."

   "Isn’t it right for your nephew to honor your uncle? It’s your nephew’s duty to let you eat and drink warmly. UU read www.uukanshu.com

   said, the six princes finally straightened up, to the surrounding Jiashidao:

   "Come and two, go with me to the back kitchen and bring out the ducks. Brothers are coming all the way from the south, so you have to taste the taste of our Quande Building."

   Jing Nanhou picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and nodded.

   Zheng Fan and the other two guards followed the Sixth Prince to the back kitchen. The two soldiers carried five or six roast ducks wrapped in lotus leaves, and then went out to share, Zheng Fan stayed.

   The six princes turned around, looked at Zheng Fan, and looked up and down carefully.

   "What's wrong?" Zheng Fan asked.

   "Emotions are brewing to buy people's hearts."

   "Oh, you continue."

   a little while,

   The eyes of the six princes suddenly flickered,

   opened the mouth and said:

   "Brother, why are you so thin and haggard like this? This makes Gu distressed..."

   "My good brother!"

   "..." Six princes.

   "Zheng Fan, I said, you walked around in the south, how come you feel the same?"

   Zheng Fan reached out and brushed the ash from the six prince’s hair.

  道:

   "Have you really roasted the duck yourself?"

   "Isn't it, it's already being prepared in the morning."

   "Then you and Jingnan Hou are really close."

   "That's not it, I, I have been close to Jingnanhou since I was a child.".

   "Is that so, how is this approach?"

   "He led his troops to slaughter my grandpa's family, doesn't it count?"
