Unparalleled Concubine

   Chapter 735 Heavenly King and Marquis

time flies.

   In the blink of an eye, it was mid-October of the eighth year of Taikang. At this time, Jimen Pass in the lower north was already quite cold, and the north wind was blowing on the face, and there was still a sense of separation.

   Counting the days, Li Xin left the capital in late June, and it took two months on the road to arrive at Jizhou City at the end of August, which means that it has been more than a month since he arrived in Jizhou City.

This month, he spent most of the time in this garden in Jizhou City, but as the general of the Zhenbei Army, he still went to the Zhenbei Army Camp a few times to see it, but he didn't ask too much about the town. The affairs of the Northern Army, big and small, were handed over to Ye Mao to deal with, which was regarded as an internship opportunity for Ye Mao, the future general.

  This morning, the Marquis of Jing'an was wearing a cloak sewn by the eldest princess, sitting in Yuanzi's study, writing something at his desk.

This time the northern expedition is not a matter of urgency, especially since he left the capital from the capital in summer, and after arriving at Jimen Pass, it has already entered autumn, and now it is almost winter. At this time, the weather in the north is cold and not suitable for expedition. .

   Even if Li Xin wants to fight, he will have to wait until next spring.

   Besides, there is still a turning point in this matter, because a few days ago, he received a reply from the Heavenly King Yuwenzhao, who agreed to enter Jizhou City to see Li Xin.

  The four divisions of Yuwen are not monolithic. There is even some feud between the Helan division and the Buddha division. As a royal family, the Yuwen Cui division is always thinking about unifying the Yuwen division. This is a good opportunity to take advantage of.

After writing a letter on the bookcase, Li Xin got up and asked someone to send the letter to the capital, saying that he was safe. Then he stood up from his chair, stretched a lot, and got up to face the garden. Go outside.

  In the garden, Zhao Fang, who is wearing black armor, is now the captain of the Zhenbei Military Academy, waiting for Li Xin with his hands down.

   "Master Hou has something to do with me?"

  Because the two hadn't seen each other for a while, Li Xin looked up and down at the young man.

   I haven't seen each other for more than a month. Zhao Fang has a much more determined look than before. I don't know if it is because of the fact that he has killed people. This young man who is less than fifteen years old has a special momentum.

  Li Xin looked at the wound on his forehead and the eye socket, and asked lightly, "Have you fought with someone?"

"Um."

   Zhao Fang nodded and said nothing more.

  Li Xin's face was calm.

"why?"

   "Those people say that the people in our battalion are all child soldiers who can only play at home and can't fight."

   Zhao Fang gritted his teeth and said in a low voice, "I couldn't be mad, so I had a fight with them."

It is theoretically impossible for a young man who is less than fifteen years old to become the captain of the Zhenbei Army in one fell swoop. After all, the promotion system of the Zhenbei Army is very strict. Without military exploits, you can only get seniority, but Zhao Fang is different. , he joined the army "with his own men", and the more than 100 people he brought in were more than the battalion of captains in Zhenbei Army, so Li Xin appointed him as captain, the generals of Zhenbei Army They gave Li Xin face and didn't say much.

   But the following people don’t think so.

   A little boy who didn't know where he came from, somehow became the captain of Zhenbei Army. Although he didn't care about them, the veterans of Zhenbei Army would inevitably be upset, and provocation and fights were inevitable.

  Jing An Hou Ye nodded and continued to ask: "Did you lose?"

   "I didn't lose."

   Zhao Fang muttered: "It's just that I haven't beaten them."

   A group of young people is naturally unlikely to beat a group of veterans. It is inevitable that they will be bullied a little bit. Seeing Zhao Fang like this, the beating will be hard.

   For the young man's little stubbornness, Lord Li gave a dumb smile and said, "Why didn't you go to Ye Mao when you were wronged? I'm not in the army, and he will also come forward for you."

   "I heard from the Zhenbei Army that fighting in the army is a common occurrence. If you haven't fought the next time, you just need to win. Going to report to your boss will make people look down on it."

   Zhao Fang clenched his fists and said in a low voice, "Next time, I'll give them a good look!"

   Li Xin patted Zhao Fang on the shoulder and said nothing, but he was still very satisfied with Zhao Fang's performance.

   This young man who used to be full of scheming, after entering the Zhenbei Army, the gloomy air on his body was diluted by the masculine atmosphere of the army, and he no longer had a crooked stomach like before.

   "I asked you to come today, to take you to meet someone, and to take you to see the world."

   Hearing Li Xin's words, Zhao Fang became interested. He followed behind Li Xin and asked in a low voice, "Master Hou, who is here?"

   Li Xin glanced at him.

   "You are now a colonel in the Zhenbei Army, and you want to call me General."

   Zhao Fang said with a smile.

   "General, who are we going to see?"

   "Go see Yuwenzhao."

   Li Xin put his hands together and said indifferently: "The heir of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, the son of Yuwen Chui, is now the king of heaven on the grassland, Yu Wenzhao."

Zhao Fang was taken aback by Li Xin's words. He had been in the Zhenbei Army for more than a month, and he naturally knew who Yu Wenzhao was. Hearing that, he followed Li Xin two steps and said in a low voice, "General. , where shall we meet him..."

  The Marquis of Jing An narrowed his eyes and smiled slightly.

   "It's only one street away from my garden, and it's just a few steps away."

   Zhao Xiaowei was dumbfounded.

   "General... General, just the two of us?"

  Li Xin stopped and glanced at him.

   "Yu Wenzhao only brought one person. If I brought more people, wouldn't I be looked down upon by him?"

  Xiaowei Zhao stopped talking and followed Li Xin in good order.

   The two left the garden on foot, then crossed the street in front of them. After walking only a few dozen steps, a restaurant appeared in front of the two. Li Xin didn't hesitate, and walked in.

   Zhao Fang took a deep breath and quickly followed.

   The two went straight to the second floor and stopped at the door of a private room. The Marquis of Jingan stretched out his hand and knocked gently on the door.

   "Is King Yuwen here?"

  The door was quickly pushed open.

   The man who opened the door was a man who looked about forty years old. He was tall and dressed in Chinese clothes, but on his forehead was an eagle made of pure gold, which looked very imposing.

   Li Xin glanced behind the man, only to see a young man in his twenties or thirties, following behind him.

This middle-aged man cupped his fists at Li Xin with Han etiquette, and said with a smile, "I only heard that the new general of Zhenbei is very young, but now when I see it, he is really young and scary. Fake General."

   Li Xin squinted at the middle-aged man in front of him.

   "It doesn't matter if this will be true or not, what matters is whether you are true, King of Heaven."

   Yu Wenzhao patted his chest with his hand and smiled.

   "If it is a fake replacement."

   Lee Shin is also full of smiles.

   "There isn't a single storefront in Jizhou City in Tianwang's house. If it's fake, I really don't know where to change it."

  Yuwenzhao laughed, turned sideways to make way, and said with a smile: "Li Houye is funny, come in and talk, the two of me arrived last night, and have been waiting here for Li Houye all night."

  Li Xinpi walked in without smiling.

   To be honest, he doubted whether this Yuwenzhao was the real Yuwenzhao. After all, he could slash him at any time at any time. The real leader of Yuwenchui's department should not take such a risk.

   But judging from the manner in which this person speaks, it doesn't look like some kind of impersonation.

   He folded his hands into his sleeves and walked into the room with a calm expression on his face.

   "I'm about to discuss a major matter with the King of Heaven."
