5days ago traverse Novels 2
Wei Renpu presided over the specific deployment of the former camp military office. Most of the imperial guards and some township troops returned south in batches, while Gao Yanqi and Liu Renzhan were stationed in Wu and Ping, but Youzhou City did not have a general to command the troops, and only the city defense had no ability to attack.

When Guo Shao returned to Tokyo, the Mid-Autumn Festival had already passed.

The coolness of autumn has no effect on the heat of the Tokyo atmosphere at all.

When the ceremonial guard arrived outside Anyuan Gate (original Fengqiu Gate), a large number of officials who were greeting knelt down in public!

This time Guo Shao returned to Beijing and received the most lively welcome.

A long singing voice came into the carriage: I welcome the emperor to return to the court with great victory!

My emperor will live forever!

Quietly...

Quietly...

Quiet!

When Guo Shao looked at it on the car, he felt that the etiquette of the ministers today was particularly pious.The crowd pressed the ground with their hands, and their heads hit the ground for a while, and prayed three times in a row.

Not long after, another civil servant shouted: Congratulations to the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty for adding martial arts to the sea, which shocked all directions, swept away the captives, and recovered the territory of the sixteen states abandoned by the predecessors. The achievements exceeded those of the predecessors and the kindness of the predecessors for generations!There are billions of people in the world, and I’m lucky to protect His Majesty Cute.The emperor ruled the world and flourished the times, the people shared prosperity, and the country and the country were safe and sound!

The eunuch Wang Zhong quickly stepped forward and asked Guo Shao. Seeing that Guo Shao looked as usual, he walked up and said, "Your Majesty has an order, and you will be calm."Enter the city!

There was also a soundtrack at this time. The big drums on the city tower were quite rhythmic and the drums were very grand. Guo Shao's emperor's ceremonial ceremony suddenly felt even more majestic!

The ministers were surrounded by the clappers, with neatly-clad cavalry guards, and even the imperial guards who were trained to enter the city, which was really powerful.

After entering the city gate, he went up to the street.

There were crowds of people on both sides of the street. When people saw the emperor's ceremonial guard, some people knelt down. For a moment, the people were lying on the ground... Even if the emperor passed by, the people didn't have to kneel down. Today is completely an exception.

Guo Shao returned triumphantly, and the people worshipped the emperor like they worshipped the gods.

Long live... Long live... The sound of sounds was heard, as if the entire Tokyo and the entire world were hustle and bustle.

Such a scene made Guo Shao feel like an emperor, completely above the mortal world.

He could feel that at this time, people convincingly acknowledged his imperial power, and no one dared to question his godly status... It was difficult for the Northern Expedition to do this big battle, but it was completely worth it!

Behind the team, there was a prison car with Yelu Xiu Ge alone on it, and was escorted back to Beijing in full view of everyone.

It seems that no incident of throwing eggs and vegetable leaves to Yelu Xiu Ge. One reason is that the people are reluctant to give up the eggs, the other reason is that the people in Tokyo are not so strong in hatred for him. After all, Yelu Xiu Ge never could have fought to Tokyo.

People were just talking about this prisoner, who was the first tiger general of the Liao Kingdom. The Emperor of Great Zhou wiped out all the cavalry of the Liao army and captured his commander alive.

But something that happened soon would make Yelu Xiuge quickly famous in Tokyo... Guo Shao personally led his people to the Xuanren Gongde Temple in the south of the imperial city.

The team stopped in front of the temple.Things are not as well organized as before, and they seem a little confused because the activity was not arranged in advance, so someone asked for tributes of incense and wine.

Among the crowd, Yang Biao was the most excited. He shouted to Luo Mengzi's spiritual position portrait in the temple: Third brother, brothers, bring your enemies to sacrifice to you!

Everyone didn't say anything, but Guo Shao had sworn brothers with Yang Biao and Luo Mengzi before he became emperor. Many people have heard of this.

Now Guo Shao is not calling his brothers to Yang Biao, but the relationship is still there, and he does not hide the matter at all.

Guo Shao lit incense himself and said: General Yang, take Yelu Xiu Ge's head.We not only worship General Luo, but also worship the heroic souls of soldiers who died in the Liao War!

Yang Biao said: Your Majesty is right, the Liao people have killed too many of us!

When Yang Biao saw that Yelu Xiu Ge was being escorted over with his bracelet and anklet, he grabbed Yelu Xiu Ge's random hair with a blue face and pushed him in front of Luo Mengzi's round portrait.

Yelu Xiu Ge suffered a lot along the way, but at this moment he stood coldly looking up at the portrait without saying a word.

Kneel down!Yang Biao roared in anger and kicked Yelu Xiuge in the calf.

Yelu Xiuge's body tilted and gritted his teeth and didn't kneel down.

Yang Biao became even more angry and was about to kick again. At this time, Shi Yanchao walked up and slapped Yelu Xiuge's shoulder with a slam. Shi Yanchao, who was one head taller, pressed down his huge palm.

I saw that Yelu Xiu Ge's face turned pale, his eyes widened, and his body was shorter.

Ah… Yelu Xiu Ge screamed and knelt down on his legs.

He burst into tears and shouted in awkward Chinese words, I was not convinced!I will not let you go if I become a demon, and I will avenge the 30,000 warriors who died in vain...

The shouting was heartbreaking, and it echoed around this empty and closed temple, which was very heartbreaking.

Guo Shao said coldly: This day will be the one you slaughtered the unarmed people of my Great Zhou, and you will die more than you!

Yelu Xiu Ge cursed: How can a group of people be considered a human being!

Zuo You said quietly behind: The Liao Dynasty court will also kill Yelu Xiuge's family for us, which is also a crime.

Swish!Yang Biao pulled out his sword, pressed Yelu Xiuge's head down with one hand, and held the sword with the other.

Yelu Xiu Ge widened his eyes and could no longer shout. He saw the shaking sword approaching his neck, and his eyes also showed fear.

A cruel person may not be afraid of death.

But Yelu Xiu Ge finally didn't beg for mercy, after all, it was useless.

Ah!Yelu Xiu Ge screamed in pain.

Yang Biao took the sword straight and started sawing it when Yelu Xiuge was alive. The screams in the temple took a long time to calm down.

The ministers outside changed their faces when they heard the movement.

Yang Biao's face and body were covered with blood. He held his head and placed it on the incense table, and knelt on the ground to worship.Guo Shao also bowed to the spiritual position.

Yang Biao picked up a pot of wine and poured it on the ground, then looked bloody and drank it up, and no longer spoke.

After offering sacrifices to Luo Mengzi, Guo Shao left Xuanren Gongde Temple and returned straight back to the palace.The order is issued to celebrate the celebration at the Jinxiang Hall tomorrow, and the troops will be rested today.

...The ministers worshipped in Jinxiang Hall. Seeing Guo Shao get up and leave, they thanked him for his kindness and scattered the court.

Wei Renpu made a special trip to Zuo You: I will go to the Privy Council to sit with the King of Envoy first, and then go home.

Because the two have been together in Youzhou for nearly a year, they have become much more familiar with each other.

The two bowed to each other under the stone steps of Jinxiang Hall, and Wei Renpu turned around and walked south.

Unexpectedly, Zuo You followed and said goodbye just now. Wei Renpu was a little surprised and took a few steps slowly.

I also looked at the base of the Jinxiang Hall above. If someone on the base cannot be seen under the stone steps, I will speed up.

After walking for a while, Zuo You said: Your Majesty returned to the capital this time and sacrificed to Xuanren Gongde Temple, but did not sacrifice to Taimiao... It is said that the officials of the Taimiao were ready, but they did not prepare for the affairs of Gongde Temple.

Wei Renpu said calmly: Zuo Jiazheng thinks, did Your Majesty neglect?

Zuo You pondered for a moment and looked at Wei Renpu meaningfully. If Your Majesty is negligent, did Deputy Envoy Wei not remind Your Majesty before?

Wei Renpu said: Zuo Aunt was also near the imperial carriage, why didn’t there be any reminder?

Zuo You said: Forget it, there are still a few months left this year, and Your Majesty may not necessarily come back and will sacrifice to the Taimiao immediately.The lower official said goodbye.

Wei Renpu looked back at the towering Jinxiang Hall on the high platform, and turned around and walked south.

After leaving a palace gate, Wei Renpu entered the Privy Council and met Wang Pu who returned to the yamen first. The two of them did not go all the way after retreating from the court.

The servants brought the tea and sat together to drink tea. The atmosphere was very subtle.

Wei Renpu greeted me with a few pleasant words, and Wang Pu was cold in response, as if saying: Can you hide the twists and turns in your heart from my eyes?

Anyway, Wang Pu treats people with strategy and is very difficult to get along with. Fortunately, Wei Renpu has worked with him for many years and has become accustomed to it... Thinking about how he has learned about Wang Pu over the years, if one day he is promoted to the top of the former peak, he doesn't know if Wang Pu is calm in facing this matter.

Wei Renpu talked about the matter of competing for seats with military generals in Youzhou in an anecdote tone.

After hearing this, Wang Pu was very calm and said casually: Deputy Envoy Wei doesn’t have to worry about this.

Yes, it was a trivial matter.Wei Renpu smiled and picked up the teacup, opened the lid and blew it, then took a sip.

Wang Pu said: By the way, what country did the Zhou emperor enfeoff the land in Xuzhou?

This... Wei Renpu frowned and thought for a moment, thinking for a while, the Kunwu tribe Xu Yougeng came to her before, so one of them enfeoffed the State of Xu. In addition, there are probably Li, Kang and Yan?

Wang Pu praised: Deputy Envoy Wei is really good at memory.

Wei Renpu smiled and said: Although Xiaguan and others have been in charge of military orders for the court for many years, they usually regard military affairs.But finally, I was born in a book and had a lot of articles and classics.

Wang Pu nodded.

The two were silent for a while, and in the cold atmosphere, they seemed to be thinking about their own thoughts.

Wei Renpu remembered what Zuo You said to him just now, thought about it again, and understood it very much in his heart.

However, he seemed more cautious at this time and was not willing to express his opinion easily... After all, it was a big deal, so he had to think about it carefully and then talk about it a few more times.

So pretending to be stupid is a better way.

Unexpectedly, Wang Pu stared at his face, which made him extremely uncomfortable. Wang Pu was old and had sharp eyes, and it was really not very pleasant to be seen.Wang Pu said: Which word does Wei Renpu think sound better?

Wei Renpu said: The lower-ranking officials are stupid and do not know.

Deputy Envoy Wei didn't understand it for a while, so he thought about it again.Wang Pu picked up the teacup and still opened it and stroked the water surface without drinking.

Wei Renpu cursed in his heart. You guessed everything I thought in his heart. Is it interesting?

However, seeing Wang Pu's actions, he breathed a sigh of relief and stood up: Xia Guan first returned to the court, and he couldn't take care of the recent matters and could not help Wang Envoy.Let's say goodbye here first.

Sent to Deputy Envoy Wei.Wang Pu bowed and replied.

Wei Renpu walked out of the study and let out a long sigh.
