Chapter 707 Entering Xijing
"This General Li has never been willing to advance north, and he has indeed made some plans!" Jin Chengxian said from the side: "Your Majesty the King, the last general is willing to lead 10,000 troops to Xijing to capture General Li!"
Ten thousand people! Hearing Jin Chengxian's words, several generals around him remained silent.
Why did the king gather 50,000 people to leave Xijing? Naturally, it was because Li Zichun had 30,000 people who could fight well. Only with these 50,000 people could he have the capital to confront him.
Kim Seong-hyun wanted to go there with 10,000 troops. This was simply a suicide act. They were already angry about Kim Seong-hyun's actions along the way, so they just let Kim Seong-hyun go to die.
Hearing Jin Chengxian's words, Wang Qi shook his head: "No, lead the army to fight, don't be impulsive. Now, since we already know Li Zichun's plan, then after we go, there is only one thing to capture Li Zichun's party and take back all the people in his hands! Jin Chengxian, if you go, you may not be able to fight. If you lose these ten thousand people, I will not let you go."
Hearing Wang Qi say this, Jin Chengxian immediately took a step back and bowed and said, "King Weiming!"
The other generals also sighed in their hearts that even if they had paid for the casualties of this ten thousand people, they would quickly let this Jin Chengxian die. This is the best. Unfortunately, the king refused to do so.
"After the rain stopped, we rushed to Xijing overnight and fought for tomorrow." Wang Qi said.
After saying that, Wang Qi coughed twice again. Although he put on a blanket, he still felt a sense of chill and penetrated into his body.
It was not until the second half of the night that the rain slowly stopped, the dark clouds dissipated, and the stars were everywhere.
After resting in the middle of the night, it was considered that it had enough rest, and the situation was urgent. Therefore, Chen Feng ordered his subordinates to move on without Li Chenggui's urging.
At this time, Juliet was already asleep. This woman had no knowledge of marching. As long as she fell asleep, she would not be vigilant, and she would not wake up no matter how she called.
Seeing this, Chen Feng just carried Juliet to the carriage, let her continue to sleep in the carriage, and took the rest of the people to Xijing.
When they arrived in Xijing, it was already noon. They accelerated their march and quickly arrived all the way.
From afar, Chen Feng saw a team of cavalry standing there outside the north gate of Xijing.
"Prince, that's my father." Li Chenggui immediately said after seeing the cavalry in the distance.
Li Zichun? With Li Chenggui around and getting closer, Chen Feng did not take out the Thousand Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile. However, even so, it can be seen that the general on the horse's back looks very similar to Li Chenggui around him. It seems that this is Li Zichun.
This Li Zichun knew some etiquette and waited for him outside the city gate.
"Prince, do we want to go directly to the city? Do you want to inquire first?" Qingqing asked on the side.
The city is tall, Qingqing and Chen Feng can come and go freely, but the people under him will not be able to do so. If something happens, there will be a chance that there will be mistakes in the city.
Chen Feng shook his head: "It's okay, this Li Zichun will not harm us. If he really dares, he will wait for the entire Goryeo to be slaughtered by our cavalry."
Qingqing's suspicion makes sense. After all, Li Zichun wanted to have a good relationship with the Ming Dynasty, but their king refused. After their king led the army, would Li Zichun hand over Chen Feng and others to their king for his own benefit? This is also one of the possibilities.
If Li Zichun had such a thought, then they would probably be in danger when they went into the city.
Chen Feng was very sure that Li Zichun would not do this.
Because in later generations, Li Zichun successfully killed Wang Qi without his help and became the king. How could such a person be allowed to listen to Wang Qi's orders? Now, coming here is a better opportunity to kill the king and replace him.
If Li Zichun dares to be unfavorable to him, then, just like before, you will first control Li Zichun and Li Chenggui, and then you will be able to escape unscathed.
Of course, if Li Zichun really dares to do this, his troops in Dadu will come in without hesitation.
Chen Feng was very prepared.
While thinking, both sides had approached and saw the arrival of this army, Li Zichun's men came over.
As he approached, Li Zichun came down from the horse's back, knelt on one knee towards Chen Feng, and said, "Mo Jiang is Li Zichun, I pay homage to Prince Chen. I am deeply honored to learn that the prince is coming to Xijing."
Li Zichun's attitude is very sincere and he is also very considerate to Chen Feng's etiquette.
"General Li asked for it. This time General Li and our court made peace. The emperor was very happy and ordered me to welcome the tribute girl. Before leaving, he brought some gifts from our court. Originally, it was given to the King of Goryeo, but now it will be given to General Li. I hope General Li will not let down the emperor's good wishes and not let down the hope of General Li in our court."
Hearing this, Li Zichun was overjoyed and said, "My general thanked the Emperor Long's kindness and the Prince's transfer, and the general will do his best."
Li Zichun naturally knew what this meant. Prince Chen had already made a very clear hint, just to tell himself that if he became the king of Goryeo, the Ming Dynasty would be very supportive.
"It's a bit cold outside the city. Please come to the city. Come all the way and travel for several months. Please rest in the city, and ask all the soldiers to rest in the city." Li Zichun continued.
After hearing what A San translated, Chen Feng said: "Okay, let's go to the city first."
The group entered Xijing.
Although Xijing has only recently returned to Goryeo from its territory, it is an ancient city with a long history and has been recorded since more than 2,000 BC.
Now, although this city is incomparable to the cities in the Central Plains, for example, there is not even a moat, it is still very tall. Moreover, this city is divided into three parts: the outer city, the middle city and the inner city, with city walls. If it is attacked in circles, it will definitely cause heavy casualties. Moreover, there is also a North City to prevent the invasion of the north.
As the city gates entered one by one, even Lian Minmin realized that it was easy to enter the city, but it would be difficult to leave the city. If Li Zichun had a plan, it would be very dangerous for him.
Chen Feng was very calm and generously followed Li Zichun into the city and came to Li's mansion.
As soon as he arrived in front of Li's mansion, Chen Feng saw several Gorye women wearing white Gorye and red Goryema, waiting at the door.
When they saw Chen Feng, the women said together: "Welcome to the prince."
They were talking about Zhongyuan. When they heard this evil, Chen Feng suddenly felt relieved. He was very uncomfortable when he listened to the gurgling Goryeo. Now, when he heard these gentle words, Chen Feng's eyes couldn't help but look at the women.
This Goryeo national costume looks so beautiful when worn by these slim women, and makes people shine. Their faces are also very beautiful, with a smile on their faces, which makes people feel drooling.
Especially the leading woman, if she describes it as a national beauty, a scent of fish and geese, it is not very appropriate, and it is a bit over the past. However, it is fresh and bright, full of pure atmosphere. Such a woman is a likable type, not artificial, very natural and generous.
Seeing Chen Feng looking at him intently, the woman leading the way smiled and said, "The prince came from afar, it must be very hard. Please come to the front yard for tea."
The woman spoke alone at this time, her voice was as beautiful as a yellow oriole, which made Chen Feng admire her very much and nodded.
"Lizhen, you are so presumptuous. Why don't you retreat quickly?" Behind him, Li Zichun's face turned into a pig's liver and she said coldly.
Li Zichun didn't expect that his bold daughter would dare to do such a thing. These women were all tribute girls. Since they were going to be sent to the Ming Dynasty palace, they must be able to speak Central Plains and write Chinese characters.
According to the rules of the people of the Central Plains, since these women were sent to the Central Plains as tribute girls, they should not see other men again, let alone, as they are now, they actually ran to the gate to entertain.
What kind of decent form is it? Li Zichun gritted her teeth and looked at her daughter who didn't understand the rules, and almost roared at her.
After saying that, Li Zichun turned his head and said to Chen Feng: "Prince, you are laughing at me, they don't understand the rules."
Ah San translated the words. Although Chen Feng heard that Li Zichun was shouting to the leader and that the woman was called Lizhen, Chen Feng did not think that there was anything rude about it, and this was not bad.
"General Li, you are wrong. They are good at this. You see, now A San understands our two languages, which is not convenient for communication. Since these people also understand our Zhongyuan dialect, it is better to translate it for us."
When Li Zichun heard A San's retelling, he looked embarrassed on his face. As a translation? Is this appropriate? They are tribute girls! After thinking about it again, he suddenly realized that he had not told the prince that these women were tribute girls.
For this prince, these women are just some of their family members in their homes and know the languages of both countries. It is just right to be a translator.
Moreover, the prince clearly stated that he was wrong, and Li Zichun could not object anymore.
but……
Just as Li Zichun was about to speak, Chen Feng was already speaking: "Lizhen, you are leading the way."
Hearing Chen Feng say this, Li Lizhen gave her father a victory and said to Chen Feng: "Prince, please come in." All the words were filled with joy.
