Xiaoyao Xiaojunhou

Chapter 709 Empty Alley
In fact, it is not impossible to remove the word "sand sculpture".

Since Zhu Xiuyuan entered the capital, he has caused numerous disturbances, from three major cases, to martial arts competitions, to the recent crisis in the capital, Zhu Xiuyuan has become a man of the hour again.

For this reason, he offended many people.

Most people in the civil and military circles of the dynasty would take a detour when they saw him.

Zhu Xiuyuan remembered that after the martial arts examination, Liu Wencai returned to Changzhou with his father, King Zhenze. He had not seen Liu Wencai for a long time.

Later, when the Yan army moved south, the capital was in danger. King Zhenze and Liu Wencai, who were stationed in Changzhou, also raised their troops to march north, and King Qin came to the capital...

However, the Zhenze Army was not strong and it was always difficult to break through the rebel defense lines.

Later, it was King Linhai of Hangzhou who led an army of 30 people to the north, and after joining forces with Zhenze's army, Liu Wencai and the others were able to go north and enter King Qin of Beijing.

But at that time, Zhu Xiuyuan went to the Yan army camp in Guabu in person.

Later, during the final battle that night, Zhu Xiuyuan drifted overseas again... It was only today that Zhu Xiuyuan saw Liu Wencai again.

It is said that Liu Wencai, who has always regarded himself as a scholar, is willing to put on armor and associate with reckless soldiers for Zhu Xiuyuan and the others...

Therefore, Zhu Xiuyuan still cherishes this unreliable friendship with Liu Wencai.

But... what did this guy just say!

"You're really not dead"?
Fortunately, this guy calls himself a scholar, but the words he uses are so inappropriate. Are all the books he reads being fed to dogs?
The head and face that had been lowered to greet Linhai King were now slightly darker.

"presumptuous!"

As soon as Liu Wencai finished speaking, another voice was heard, very energetic, with the tone of an elder scolding a junior.

Zhu Xiuyuan raised his eyes and saw that it was indeed King Linhai, with a straight face, pointing at Liu Wencai and scolding him.

"Marquis Zhu is now a marquis, and you, boy, are just a prince, how dare you be so rude? You speak arrogantly, and you do things..."

Linhai Wang pointed at Liu Wencai from a distance. He seemed to be scolding Liu Wencai often and his face was very dark.

"If you were my prince's son, I would definitely beat you!"

As he said this, King Linhai stretched out his hand and stroked his long sleeves, preparing to hit him.

"Uncle Wang, spare your life, Uncle Wang, spare your life!"

Liu Wencai was startled, retreated in panic, and was driven aside.

Linhai Wang took two steps to catch up, then stopped, and then turned around to look at Zhu Xiuyuan. The anger on his face disappeared instantly, and it was no longer dark. Instead, he smiled and grinned happily, as if he had won 500 million in a lottery ticket. of.

"Congratulations!"

King Linhai rubbed his hands together, and the smile on his face became more and more exaggerated.

"In the past, when I met Marquis Zhu, you were still an earl. At that time, I guessed that Marquis Zhu would fly high in the sky soon, and his future achievements would be limitless!"

"It's just as I expected. It has only been a few months, and Marquis Zhu is now a Marquis!"

"Furthermore, due to the current national crisis, Zhu Hou offered good advice and went to the enemy camp in person. With his sharp tongue, he persuaded tens of thousands of Yan troops to retreat and buy time for our two armies in the south!"

"Zhu Hou's contribution is really great! His Majesty has also commended Zhu Hou several times... The only bad thing is that after the battle that night, Zhu Hou disappeared..."

"Now, the gods are pitiful. Zhu Hou's return is really a blessing to my court and a blessing to the people of the world!"

The Linhai King became more and more excited as he spoke, and in the end he simply bowed himself and made another salute. "My lord, you can't do it!"

Zhu Xiuyuan returned the favor even though he was busy.

"The return of Lord Marquis is really a blessing to my court and a blessing to the people of the world."

At this time, behind King Linhai, a group of officials, including the generals in King Linhai's palace, the governor of Hangzhou, and officials of all sizes in the yamen, all bowed together and saluted.

Their movements were uniform, as if they had rehearsed in advance.

"Your Majesty, you are so complimentary. I am just doing my best, and I don't deserve the comment of 'the world is suffering'." Zhu Xiuyuan was modest.

After chatting with King Linhai for a few more words, the Hangzhou governor had been looking for an opportunity for a long time and was secretly worried for a long time. Finally, he interrupted with excitement: "Master Hou, I will serve as the governor of Hangzhou@!~, Meet the Marquis!"

"@Sir, you are polite..." But Zhu Xiuyuan only smiled lightly and did not say anything more to him.

"Brother Zhu, Brother Zhu..." Because at this time, Liu Wencai gradually came over again, avoiding Linhai King's sight and getting closer.

"Brother Zhu, I can still see you this time. My father and I have been waiting for a long time and our hearts can finally come to an end!" Liu Wencai finally said something human.

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty and Brother Liu... By the way, I would also like to thank Your Majesty for sending troops north as soon as possible during the crisis in the capital. You have been able to contain some of the rebel forces, which is of great benefit to the situation in the capital! "

"really?"

Liu Wencai was overjoyed immediately and burst into laughter.

Without waiting for Zhu Xiuyuan's reply, Liu Wencai looked at Linhai King on the side and said happily: "Uncle Wang, you see, Brother Zhu said so, our Zhenze Army is actually very powerful!"

King Linhai glanced at him with disgust on his face, and almost waved his hand to shoo away flies.

"Marquis Zhu, it's getting late now. Let's enter the city first. I have ordered people to prepare a banquet in the palace... Marquis Zhu and his wife have been wandering on the boat for several days. They must be tired. I have ordered People have tidied up an elegant little courtyard..."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness, but...we have been away from Beijing for a few days, and we wanted to..."

"Hey, Brother Zhu, why are you in a hurry!" Liu Wencai was even more anxious than King Linhai, "It's getting late today and it's difficult to travel at night. Besides, Brother Zhu, you have been wandering overseas for several days, you should be tired, why not come to the palace It’s not too late to rest for one night and then leave for Beijing tomorrow.”

This time, King Linhai also nodded and stared at Liu Wencai with approval.

Zhu Xiuyuan thought for a moment, then looked back at Dong Shuzhen. She was seasick all the way and had just landed... Forget it, let's rest for a night first.

So Zhu Xiuyuan agreed.

King Linhai laughed loudly and hurriedly led the way in person, calling Zhu Xiuyuan to walk side by side with him, chatting all the way out of the dock.

Dong Shuzhen and others also followed closely.

When Zhu Xiuyuan walked out of the pier, he saw that the roadside was crowded with people and noisy, all of them were people from Hangzhou City.

"Master Hou is out!"

"Shen Lei Hou is really a blessing to the people of my country!"

"Master Hou... finally returned from overseas, God has eyes!"

The young and old on the roadside immediately screamed when they saw Zhu Xiuyuan coming out of the pier, waving and jumping, very enthusiastic and excited.

If the generals of Linhai Palace had not formed a human wall to stop them, Zhu Xiuyuan would have been drowned by the common people.
