Chapter 205 Serial port supply
In the evening three days later, Li Xin and others arrived at an inn in the north of the capital city.
This inn is about thirty miles away from the capital. Now the gate of the capital has been closed when he rushes back to the capital. Li Xin does not have the ability to open the city gate. Besides, he is also carrying his troops, so it is even more impossible to open the city gate and let him in in the middle of the night.
So Captain Li waved his hand and announced that he would rest here tonight and prepare to enter the capital the next day.
In the second half of the night, Li Xin's door was gently knocked.
After several months of military life, Li Xin became much more alert. He almost immediately woke up and lit up the oil lamp in the room.
Standing at the door was the old captain Wang Zhong.
"Master Wang, what's wrong?"
"Someone is here."
Wang Zhong frowned: "It's like dozens of people, and I'm almost at the inn now."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Xin also heard a faint sound of horse hooves. It was obvious that the person Wang Zhong was talking about was very close.
Li Xin smiled and said, "There are all under the emperor's feet here, so there will be no bandits, right? But it's really a bit strange to travel in the middle of the night, so it's better to be more alert."
As he said that, Li Xin asked someone to wake up some Yulin Guards and ordered him to be on guard. He also changed his clothes and took out the Aokiji sword from under the pillow.
This sword is very strange and doesn't look very eye-catching, and it even looks like a bronze sword. However, Li Xin once tried it with the Hu people's scimitars, and with a light touch, he could cut the relatively sharp scimitars into two sections.
According to Zhong Xuantong, this thing is made of meteorite and cannot be described by common sense.
This kind of magic weapon is a must-have for the protagonist in martial arts novels, but I didn't expect that one day it would fall into Li Xin's hands.
However, this thing is very heavy, and it looks like five or six kilograms overall. You should know that ordinary swords are only one or two kilograms, and the weight is a little more than two or three kilograms. This sword with a total of more than five kilograms is difficult to control with Li Xin's current arm strength.
Now he can only use this thing as a machete to chop people. It is obviously impossible to use any fancy moves.
Carrying the Aokiji sword, Li Xin felt much more at ease. As soon as he walked to the gate of the station, he saw twenty or thirty horses running on the official road in the south, and his voice was getting closer and closer.
It was about forty or fifty meters long, and with the torches in the hands of these people, Li Xin could see clearly who the first person was.
Captain Li said in a deep voice to Wang Zhong beside him: "It's your own people who are here, let everyone disperse, don't be nervous."
When the Seventh Prince came outside the city to see him in the middle of the night, there must be something big. At this time, you should be low-key and not let too many people know about it.
Wang Zhong nodded and went down to give orders. After Li Xin sorted out his clothes, the horses of the Seventh Prince and others had already stopped at the gate of the post station.
Li Xin stepped forward and clasped his fists and said, "I have seen Your Highness."
The seventh prince turned over and dismounted, walked to Li Xin in three or two steps, and patted Li Xin on the shoulder heavily.
In the past few days, His Highness, the King of Wei, has not lived a good life, and it can even be said that he is living like a year.
He had never waited for someone to wait so anxiously. Even when he was in love in his early years, the girl he had been waiting for was far less tormented than he was now.
After waiting for three days, Li Xin and others finally arrived near the capital. The Seventh Prince finally couldn't wait any longer. He personally led several generals from the Wei Palace to arrive at the inn overnight.
Because of excessive worry in my heart, the prince even lost weight.
Li Xin lowered his head and said, "Your Highness, why are you so anxious that you can come here in the middle of the night?"
His Highness the King of Wei opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but then he felt that this place was not suitable and said in a deep voice: "Let's talk in another place."
Li Xin nodded, greeted Wang Zhong, asked him to lead the Yulin Guard to guard all over, and then led the seventh prince into the house, reached out to pour him a cup of tea, and said, "Your Highness, what happened?"
If a prince can leave the city for twenty or thirty miles to greet him regardless of his identity, something must have happened in the capital, and it is related to him and threatens the major affairs of the Wei Palace.
The seventh prince took a sip of tea and sighed softly: "Brother Xin, Li Yan, the deputy general of the Pingnan Army of Southern Xinjiang, has returned to the capital."
Li Yan
This man Li Xin once met in southern Xinjiang. He was the one who brought the soldiers of the Pingnan Army to greet Li Shen on the official road.
Thinking of this, Li Xin smiled: "What's wrong with him coming back?"
"He came back to serve as the Minister of War and sued you in front of his father."
As he said that, His Highness King of Wei took out a few pieces of white paper from his sleeve and handed it to Li Xin: "When my father summoned me that day, he showed me Li Yan's memorial. After I returned home, I wrote it down. Although it was not a word of difference, I couldn't make a few words wrong."
Li Xin took these blank sheets and glanced briefly, and his face became a little unsightly.
He thought he had handled the matter in southern Xinjiang very well. When he met Li Xing in Hanzhou Prefecture, he thought no one had noticed it, so he was able to bring Mu Ying to his side so confidently. But now, Li Xin realized that he underestimated the people of this era too much.
After reading it carefully, Li Xin let out a long breath and said, "This is a spy next to Li Xing."
Speaking of this, Li Da Captain Li was a little angry: "When he was in Shu County, a great prince from Nan Shu, he was buried by Li Shen. He deserved to be destroyed by the country in Southern Shu!"
His Highness the King of Wei shook his head and said, "It's not the time to say this. Li Yan's memorial was suppressed by his father. There is nothing wrong with it for the time being, but his father ordered you to see him immediately as soon as you return to Beijing."
Ji Wen's face was solemn: "This depends on the wealth and life of you and me. Brother Xin must be cautious!"
Li Xin only now understood the purpose of the seventh prince.
The matters in southern Xinjiang cannot be hidden, so we must tell the truth in front of Emperor Chengde. The difference now is whether the Seventh Prince knows that Li Xin "colluded" with southern Xinjiang.
He was the prince of the Great Jin Dynasty. He had a sensitive identity and could never participate in collusion with rebels. He ran to this inn in the middle of the night to meet Li Xin for this purpose.
His Highness, King of Wei, said in a low voice: "My father has seen me once. I ask me if I know what you are contacting Nanshu. I deny it. When Brother Xin returns to Beijing to meet the saint, be sure to bite this to death."
Li Xin took a few deep breaths and smiled, "Don't worry, your highness, this matter cannot be affected by you."
"It's not because I'm afraid of being involved."
His Highness the King of Wei smiled bitterly and said, "It's because my identity is too sensitive. If the Fourth Brother and the others know about this, as long as they do a little bit of writing, the King of Wei's Mansion will fall into a place that will never be restored. This is amazing, Brother Xin should be able to figure it out..."
"I understand, I didn't blame Your Highness."
Li Xin narrowed his eyes and said, "This matter must not be involved in Your Highness, otherwise I will not be able to explain this matter clearly to Your Majesty. Only when Your Majesty is out of the matter can I turn this matter into a big deal..."
His Highness the King of Wei hesitated for a moment, then said, "Brother Xin, do you want to kill the person from southern Xinjiang?"
He wanted to kill Mu Ying to show his loyalty to the emperor.
"Of course it won't happen."
