Confiscated and exiled, the down-and-out general became the queen

Chapter 194 Arrival at Jinling City

Leng Huaiyi coughed lightly and said with a smile: "This man has a burly appearance and possesses extraordinary strength.

There are only a handful of people in this world who can defeat him, but this man is very stubborn and only sticks to his principles.

The late emperor saved him when he was younger, and he was brought back to the palace by the then crown prince, who then taught him martial arts.

After discovering that he was incredibly strong, they hired a master who was good at using a hammer to teach him martial arts.

He was also very motivated and learned it in a short time. Later, he escorted the late emperor all the way from the crown prince to that position. "

"and after?"

Xiao Lengyue was very curious, so she opened her eyes wide and looked at Leng Huaiyi.

Seeing this, Leng Huaiyi continued, “His personality is too direct, and he has offended many people in the court.

Seeing this, the late emperor sent him here to guard Jinling City, which is only a hundred miles away."

As soon as the name Jinling City came out, Xiao Lengyue knew where it was.

The city of Jinling is the one that has three thousand elite soldiers and a famous advisor.

Seeing that Xiao Lengyue knew about it, Leng Huaiyi said, "Before, the late emperor wanted to send him to wipe out the nearby bandit den, so he sent someone to pass on the message, but he didn't believe it and brought the person to the late emperor. After confirming that the news was true, he left.

After that, it happened several times. Seeing that he really didn’t believe it, the late emperor made an agreement with him that every time he sent him an imperial decree, he would either bring him a royal token or a token of his loyalty.”

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Lengyue asked, "Did something happen afterwards?"

Leng Huaiyi nodded, "The no-man's land city wanted to swallow up Jinling City, so they sent someone to secretly pass on the imperial decree, asking him to take the initiative to attack the no-man's land city.

When he saw that there was no token or imperial edict, he exposed him on the spot. Fortunately, he had an agreement with the late emperor, otherwise, what was waiting for them would be a trap.

It is precisely because of this incident that he values ​​the imperial edict and the token even more."

Hearing this, Xiao Lengyue frowned and said, "In that case, what if it's my uncle?"

Leng Huaiyi knew what she meant and said, “Don’t worry about this.

The imperial decree issued by your uncle is of no use to him."

Xiao Lengyue was even more confused when she heard this, and frowned, "Is it because he was not given the title by the late emperor?"

Leng Huaiyi shook his head, "No, because there is no imperial seal on the imperial edict, so even if he ascends the throne as emperor now, he can't control Xiao Changle."

At this point, Leng Huaiyi looked at Xiao Lengyue and said helplessly: "I tried to write him a letter and told him your news, but he only said one sentence, asking you to meet him in person."

When Xiao Lengyue heard this, she was very curious about this person. Seeing Leng Huaiyi's hesitation in speaking, she said, "Then I will go see him in person."

Leng Huaiyi had already anticipated Xiao Lengyue's thoughts, and said, "In two days, it will be the annual Night Stall Festival in Jinling City. By then, the streets will be full of small vendors. Yue Baoer, why don't you go shopping?"

Xiao Lengyue nodded, "Okay, then we'll set off tomorrow. That way, we'll still have time to check out the night stalls."

Leng Huaiyi nodded, "Then I'll arrange someone."

So, the next morning, when Xiao Lengyue got up and came to Leng Huaiyi's door, she saw several people already sitting in the yard.

Looking at them, Xiao Lengyue raised her eyebrows slightly, "You all want to go with me?"

Leng Huaiyi nodded, "Yes, they all go."

Xiao Lengyue looked at Leng Haohui, Leng Haoxuan, Song Ye, Tianze and Zhao Yong, "They are gone, what happened in the city?"

"Don't worry, everything has been arranged."

Seeing this, Xiao Lengyue didn't say anything else. She just nodded and prepared to leave.

Just when Xiao Lengyue was about to leave, two people came out of the room. Seeing them like that, they laughed and said, "Grandfather, you guys are not going with us, are you?"

When Leng Shaobin heard this, he glanced at Old Master Murong, and seeing that he had no reaction, he nodded, "Yes, we will go together."

When Old Master Murong saw Xiao Lengyue looking at him, he said, "My presence is a sign of the late emperor."

When Xiao Lengyue heard this, she was choked. What her master said was right.

The people all knew that old Tutor Murong could only teach the emperor knowledge, and no one could make him loyal except the emperor. This was why he was exiled here by the new emperor.

So, when they set off, there were two more people. Seeing this, Leng Huaiyi directly arranged three carriages.

After they set off, Leng Huaiyi, Leng Huaizhong, Chen Lao and others started to get busy.

After a day and a night, Xiao Lengyue and his companions finally arrived in Jinling City on the morning of the Night Stall Festival.

Xiao Lengyue looked at the few pedestrians on the street, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes, but he said nothing more.

Tianze brought everyone to his own inn. Seeing the shopkeeper taking a rest there, he took out the token and said coldly, "Clear the inn."

As soon as these words were spoken, the shopkeeper was about to get angry, but when he raised his eyes, he met the shining token.

The moment he saw the token, the shopkeeper quickly stood up, trembling, and came to Tianze. Just as he was about to salute, he heard Tianze say, "Clean up the rooms on the top floor, and clear all the rooms on the next floor. Clean them up for us."

When the shopkeeper heard this, his eyes widened even more, and he nodded quickly, "Okay, I'll take you upstairs right away."

After that, he quickly led everyone to the top floor, and said as he walked: "The rooms on the top floor are cleaned every day, you can go in.

I don’t dare rent out the rooms near the top floor stairs, so you can move in directly.”

The shopkeeper knew what the house on the top floor meant, so usually he would save the houses near the top floor for rent last.

Today, they arrived early and there were still a few rooms on that floor that had not been rented out yet, so there was definitely enough space for them.

So, the shopkeeper took a deep breath, regained some of his composure, and quickly took Xiao Lengyue and the others to the top floor.

When they reached the top floor stairs, he bowed and said, "Upstairs is your room."

Tianze heard this and looked at Xiao Lengyue, "Master."

Xiao Lengyue nodded, glanced at Leng Shaobin and the others, then went upstairs.

The shopkeeper's heart almost jumped out of his chest when he saw this scene. He took a deep breath, bowed and said, "All the rooms around the stairs are available for immediate occupancy. Please move in on your own, sir. I will clear all the people on this floor right away."

Tianze nodded when he heard this and ordered: "Find two reliable people to serve the master."

"Yes."

After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he saw that they had all entered the house and quickly cleared out the previous guests.

After telling them about the accident, I paid them double the rent and finally asked them to leave.

It's still early now, so you can still book a room at other inns.

So when the guests heard that the room rate had doubled, they all checked out.

After half an hour, Xiao Lengyue and his group were the only ones left in the entire inn.
