The ancestor of the apocalypse is so cool after being reborn!
Chapter 271 Entering Beijing
Sitting in the carriage behind were the court ministers and their families, as well as the wealthy and powerful people from aristocratic families who came back with them.
Whether they are passengers in sleepers or hard seats, they have been paying attention to the scenery outside the window since dawn.
"The conductor just said that we are almost in the capital. I think we have already entered the Gyeonggi area. Look, the cement road is straight and spacious. Several cars can walk side by side without any problem!"
"Yes, before I came to the capital, I received news that many roads had been built by the empress in the Gyeonggi area. I didn't believe it at first. I thought that the entire imperial court in Jiankang didn't have many cement roads, and it's a capital without the support of the treasury! Who would have thought that the slap in the face would come so quickly!"
"You are right, the capital city may have changed even more, but now that the emperor is back, I just don't know whether the emperor or the queen will have real power in the capital next?"
"Brother, please be careful what you say. If someone listens to your words, say it in front of the empress, and you will be forced to walk away without food!"
The minister who just said this also knew that he was talking too fast. He hurriedly changed the subject, pointed out the window and said: "Look, are those carriages racing with the train we are riding on?"
The others were attracted by his words and did not mention the topic just now. Everyone looked out the window.
On the road parallel to the railway, several carriages ran wildly side by side. From time to time, they glanced at the train and whipped their whips to speed up. In front of the carriages, there were several young men riding tall horses, yelling and waving their whips. The speeds were not much different, so of course it was impossible to tell how fast they were running.
But being able to compete with a train means that his horse riding skills are not bad at all.
"Are they crazy? Not to mention the young men on horseback, those carriages actually dared to compete with the train. Are they desperate for their lives? If the carriage overturns, it will result in the destruction of the carriage and the death of people!"
"Who says it's not the case! I have to admire the courage of these people!"
"You still admire me. I think they are just a bunch of crazy people who are too full to eat!"
"Hey, Mr. Ma, one of those young men on horseback looks a bit familiar to me. Come and see if that is your third child?"
"The third child? He returned to the capital early!" Mr. Ma squeezed to the car window and looked at the road in the distance with squinted eyes. Several young men in brocade clothes riding on horseback were high-spirited and smiling, although they were not far apart. They are small, but it can still be seen from their expressions that they seem to be having a great time and having fun.
Of course, when he saw that one of them was really a boy from his family, Master Ma's face turned completely dark. "This traitor came to the capital and didn't seek to make progress. He only knew how to flatter others all day long. The Ma family's face was almost completely disgraced by him. What are they doing? They think the body his parents gave him is too healthy and he is missing arms and legs, right?"
With such a crazy horse racing, if something goes wrong, it will cause death or injury!
Mr. Chen next to him saw that his face turned purple with anger, and comforted him: "Mr. Ma, a young man should have the vitality of a young man. This is good, full of vitality, haha."
The person next to him pushed Mr. Chen with a bit of gloating on his face and reminded him: "Mr. Chen, you are right. It is good to be full of energy. Look, is the one at the end your youngest son?"
Mr. Chen's laughter stopped suddenly and he looked out the window with narrowed eyes, "Where is it? Where is it?"
The person next to him kindly pointed it out to him, "Over there, the young man riding the maroon horse at the back, and the fat boy wearing the blue brocade robe, can you take a look?"
"Ouch!" Mr. Chen clutched his chest and gasped, "My ancestor! How can you participate in such a dangerous horse race? Isn't this nonsense! Come on, come on! Come over with the loudspeaker and shout outside, let you little kids Master, stop your horse quickly, this train racing game is too dangerous!"
After saying that, he ordered the boy to take out the loudspeaker he bought for his youngest son in Jiankang and shout.
The young man of the Chen family immediately obeyed, took out the gift for the young master, a conical iron trumpet, stretched out the window and shouted: "Young master, I order you to stop your horse immediately, racing with the train is too dangerous!"
Master Ma finally regained his breath and sneered: "I say, Master Chen, young people should have the vitality of young people. This is good and full of vitality. Just let them compete!"
Master Chen also knew that Master Ma was mocking him at this moment, but he had no mind to pay attention to him at the moment. His son was precious. "Master Ma, we have something to discuss later. I will save the child first."
Master Ma was also worried about his son. After hearing his words, he just snorted and said nothing more. In his heart, he hoped those boys would stop!
Master Chen thought the boy's voice was too soft, so he slapped him on the back of the head, "You haven't eaten! Please speak louder!"
The boy looked at the horse that was still galloping, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, took a deep breath, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Master, Master, I want you to stop the horse and not to race! Danger! Danger!" "
This time the sound not only spread to the opposite road, but also Li Jingfu, who was sitting in the first-class compartment of the train, heard it.
He asked Anu: "Who is shouting?"
After hearing the question, Anu glanced at the little eunuch standing at the door of the carriage. The little eunuch was very smart. When he saw him, he looked over and went out for a while.
When he came back in, he told the situation outside: "There is a group of young men racing horses on the parallel highway. They should be racing against the train. Among them are Mr. Chen and Mr. Ma. They are afraid that their sons will be injured. So I shouted to them to stop.”
Li Jingfu, who was lying on the soft couch, sat up when he heard this and became interested: "Race with the train?"
This is the first time I heard about this, so strange!
"Yes, Your Majesty, it's just across the railway." The little eunuch pointed out the window.
"Your Majesty, come and see, there are really a group of people galloping on horses on the opposite road. Are they really racing with the train?" A little beauty who was slightly favored in Jiankang couldn't wait to lie down at the window and saw the horses galloping. The young men’s beautiful eyes were all widened.
Li Jingfu stood up from the soft couch and sat back in front of the car window, "Wow! There are really a group of young men in bright clothes and angry horses. Not bad! I didn't expect that at such a young age, they can be so good at equestrian skills!"
Seeing the flying hair of the teenagers opposite, Li Jingfu's mood also soared.
Anu glanced out the window with a cold face and agreed: "It's true that your equestrian skills are good!"
Li Jingfu was happy now. While watching their horse racing, he told Anu: "How can there be no prize in the train race? Remember to write down their names later and see who gets No. 1. I will give you a lot of rewards today!" "
"Old slave, I have taken note of it." Anu looked at the galloping horses outside the window and clicked his tongue in his heart. A group of lucky young men had now caught the emperor's eye.
The shouting in the car behind had not stopped yet, and even if the young men on the opposite side heard it, they regarded it as cheering for them and ignored it, cracking the whip even more frequently.
The servant who had been guarding the highway entrance saw the young men galloping over on horseback from a distance, and hurriedly cleared out the people at the highway entrance.
"Everyone, get out quickly, our young masters are here!"
"Quickly exit, or you will be trampled to death by the horse's hooves later! We won't care if you are injured!"
At the same time, the people who had been waiting all morning also noticed that the train was about to enter the station, and there was a commotion in the crowd.
"The train is about to arrive!"
"The emperor is here!"
"Tick!!!"
With a sharp whistle, the train slowed down and slowly entered the train station.Mr. Ma, who was the first to reach the finish line on the highway, stopped his horse and looked at the people who were arriving at the finish line one after another with a smile.
He bowed to them: "Brothers, I admit, I accidentally won the crown. I'm going to treat you all to the Zuixian Tower to eat prawns tonight!"
Someone snorted, "Okay, you won so much money from us this time, it's your treat. We won't be polite next time, and we will definitely surpass you!"
Mr. Ma nodded, not angry, and smiled: "Thank you brothers for your support this time. Next time we will come back to show off!"
Some of the onlookers nearby were unconvinced after losing money, "Hey, do you think they didn't show their true skills? Why didn't Mr. Zhang, whom I favored, win first place?"
"You're right. I'm also optimistic about Mr. Zhang. He won first place last time. Why is he so cold this time?"
"I suspect they are operating inside. Why is it so unexpected every time they win the first place? If the game continues like this, who will play next time?"
"Betting is fun only when there are no rules. If you guess who will come first, how can it be fun?"
"Yes, if you guess correctly, the odds won't be so high, you won't win much money, and the game won't be exciting enough!"
"Haha. I bought Mr. Ma and I won! I won't tell you anymore. I'll go redeem my bonus first!"
The crowd at the train station divided into two groups. One group came really to see the emperor's face, while some came to place bets on horse racing.
Li Jingfu didn't know this when he first entered the capital. As soon as he got off the train, Anu remembered his instructions and sent a young eunuch to deliver a prize.
Mr. Ma was completely confused when he received the reward from the emperor. How could he race a horse and the emperor also knew about it?He was also rewarded with a pair of jade pendants and a set of the Four Treasures of the Study.
"Mr. Ma, you are really lucky today. You got first place and got a reward from the emperor. How come I didn't get such a good thing last time when I got first place?"
Later, Young Master Ma, who was racing horses with them, asked Young Master Ma to entertain them for three days and taste all the delicacies in Zuixianlou before stopping. This is something to be said later.
Let’s go back to the train station.
As soon as the train stopped, the imperial guards and Jin Wu put the platform of the train station under security. The train door slowly opened, and the first to get off were the accompanying palace maids and eunuchs.
Anu came down next. After Anu came down, he stretched out his hand to help Li Jingfu get off the train.
As soon as he stood still, Li Jingfu breathed out: "It feels so good to be down to earth!"
After wandering around on the train for more than twenty hours, even though I was on a special train, I was still very tired.
"Your Majesty, Ding Dazhuang, has met with you. You have worked hard all the way. In order to leave the train station as soon as possible, please come here!"
Ding Dazhuang saluted him and guided Li Jingfu and others to evacuate outside the station.
After leaving the train station, the three princes who had been staying in the capital came forward and bowed down to him.
"My son has seen his father!"
Li Jingfu raised his hand: "Everyone, get up!"
Concubine Xian, who was following Li Jingfu, had her eyes fixed on Li Chengyi as soon as she came out. Seeing her son standing in front of her intact, her eyes couldn't help but turn red.
The three sons stood up. Li Jingfu looked at them and saw that they were more mature and steady than a few years ago. He nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad, let's go back first."
After the emperor passed by him, Li Chengyi turned around to greet Concubine Xian, and then mother and son had the opportunity to say some thoughtful words.
Arriving in front of the dragon chariot, Li Jingfu stopped, turned around and asked Anu beside him: "Where is the Queen?"
Why did only three sons come to pick him up? Where did the queen go?
Anu: "." He also just got off the train. How did he know where the queen was?
"I'm here!" Xia Jing leaned lazily by the car window, opened the car curtain with one hand, and said in a casual tone: "You are so generous, and only now did you realize that I was missing!"
Li Jingfu frowned slightly, "Why is the queen sitting in a carriage at the back? Why doesn't she share a carriage with me?"
After hearing what he said, Xia Jing glanced behind him and said, "I won't disturb you and your beauties. Sit in the back and it's quiet."
Li Jingfu looked at the car curtain that had been lowered, turned around and asked Anu: "What does the queen mean?"
"." Anu pursed his lips.
Li Jingfu didn't wait for Anu's answer. He thought about it for a while and then asked: "Is the queen jealous? Are you playing tricks on me?"
"." Anu's eyes turned around on Li Jingfu's delighted face, trying to say that he didn't notice it.
"Your Majesty, do you guys want to go and pay homage to the Queen?" the newly minted beauty carefully approached Li Jingfu and asked.
"This" Li Jingfu glanced at the carriage behind him, a little undecided. In fact, to be honest, he was a little afraid of her.
Seeing the emperor's hesitation, the little beauty turned her beautiful eyes and asked in a low voice: "Don't you think the queen likes us?"
"How could it be possible, Queen?" Li Jingfu smacked his teeth, "We'll wait until we get back to the palace. Get in the car quickly!"
Concubine Xian and Li Chengyi sat in a car. When Li Jingfu got on the dragon chariot, several beauties behind wanted to follow.
But before they could step forward, Anu stopped them and said with his zombie face: "My young masters, the dragon chariot is only for the emperor and empress. Others are not qualified to ride. Please sit in the back, please." carriage!"
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the beauties turned red, and they felt that the guards standing like logs next to them were laughing at their ignorance.
Bai Mei had been paying attention to the situation outside the car. When she saw this situation, she turned around and said to Xia Jing: "Madam, fortunately Anu did not forget the rules, otherwise we would have made a joke outside this time!"
Xia Jing raised her eyes and glanced at her, and said calmly: "Since they lack education, when we return to the palace, we will find some strict nuns to teach them the rules. Now that they have returned to Beijing, don't let them bring back those bad habits in Jiankang. Royal Palace.”
After saying that, she yawned, and the emperor returned to the capital. The peaceful days before were probably gone forever. (End of chapter)
