Hearing the words of the generals around you and me, Ziying's face suddenly darkened and she scolded: "You are presumptuous!"

The generals shrank in fear and hurriedly shut their mouths, not daring to say another word.

After the Emperor's ceremonial guard passed, there was a procession of imperial courtiers. Carriages came one after another, some carrying people, some carrying objects. It was hard to count whether there were hundreds or thousands of carriages. Behind them, there were

The team of Qiu Zhen, Zong Yuan and other ministers of the Feng Kingdom.

Seeing Qiu Zhen's carriage, Ziying straightened her face, immediately urged the horse forward, stepped in and saluted, and said: "Qiu Xiang!"

Regardless of the rank or rank of the generals, the Zuo Xiang is their immediate boss. Seeing Ziying, Qiu Zhen immediately smiled on his face. He poked his head out of the carriage and asked: "General Ziying

Did you see the emperor just now?"

"I've seen it before!" Ziying nodded with a smile.

"The Emperor must look very happy, right?" Qiu Zhen said cheerfully.

Ziying looked around, dismounted, handed the reins to the guard on the side, and then looked into Qiu Zhen's carriage. Qiu Zhen was so smart, he understood immediately, waved his hand and said, "General Ziying, come in and sit down."

Qiu Zhen's carriage was large enough to accommodate two people. Ziying got on the carriage, sat down next to Qiu Zhen, and then asked in a low voice: "Prime Minister Qiu, there is something unknown at the end."

"But why did the king let the emperor go back to Beijing?"

"Exactly!"

Qiu Zhen smiled and said: "After all, the emperor is not right in our country of Feng, and his words are not right. It seems that the emperor is just the emperor of our country of Feng. The longer he stays, the more the emperor's prestige will be damaged. Let the emperor return to Beijing and regain his prestige."

, then the emperor is still the emperor of all people, which is very beneficial to our country."

Ziying understood these principles, and he said with concern: "I'm afraid that after the emperor returns to Beijing, he will not be under the control of our country!"

"From now on, our Fengjun will be permanently stationed in Beijing, and the emperor will not be able to fly out of our hands."

"But Shangjing is the place of the emperor after all. Even if our army can be permanently stationed in Shangjing, it may not be as easy to control the emperor as it is now." Ziying said sternly: "If there are villains around the emperor who instigate and interfere with them, they will harm our generals.

It would be very detrimental.”

"Oh? That's a problem." Qiu Zhen breathed, nodded thoughtfully, and murmured: "Therefore, the ministers in the imperial court must all be our people, strip their wings, even if the tiger returns to the mountain,

It’s nothing to worry about.”

"What does Qiu Xiang mean..." Ziying asked cautiously.

Qiu Zhen said slowly: "The journey from Zhenjiang to Shangjing is a long way, more than a thousand miles. During this period, we will inevitably encounter wolves, tigers, leopards, horse bandits, and bandits. It is reasonable for so many accidents to happen!"

Well! Ziying pondered for a moment and nodded slowly. He asked: "I wonder, who did Qiu Xiang let the accident happen to?"

Qiu Zhen looked up and smiled and said: "I have to think about this again and think about it carefully." At this point, he changed the topic, looked at Ziying up and down, and asked seriously: "Ziying, what's wrong with you?

Is the injury okay?"

Ziying took a deep breath, clenched his fist and hammered his breastplate, and laughed boldly and said: "I have recovered a long time ago, there is no need to worry, Mr. Qiu."

"That's good. The journey is long and bumpy, so don't hurt yourself." Qiu Zhen said, "I've prepared a carriage when we leave the city. You can ride on it."

"Xiang Qiu has thought carefully, and I will be very grateful." Ziying bowed her hands and saluted.

Ziying's words really made Qiu Zhen take heart. Of course, the emperor's presence in Shangjing is different from that in Zhenjiang. Our control over the emperor cannot be as tight as in Zhenjiang. If there are really ministers in the court secretly bewitching the emperor, there is no telling what will happen.

What a mess.

Now among the ministers of the imperial court, quite a few are Feng people, these people can be trusted, and the other part are the veterans of the imperial court. Among them, there are some who are sincerely inclined to the Feng country, but there are also those who seem to be incompatible with each other.

The Feng Kingdom is the greatest threat.

However, it was difficult for Qiu Zhen to make a judgment for a while about who truly obeyed Feng Guo and who was alien to Feng Guo. He still needed to consider this matter carefully.

Yin Zhun, Yin Rou and the ministers of the imperial court and the ministers of the Feng Kingdom were escorted by the Sky Eagle Army. They left Zhenjiang and headed south all the way to Shangjing. From Zhenjiang to Shangjing, they have to pass through most of Mo Di and the entire An Di. The road is really

Very long.

It would have taken a long time on the road, so Qiu Zhen specially sent an order to Ziying, telling him not to be in a hurry and just march slowly. Ziying didn't understand what Qiu Zhen meant, but he still followed his instructions and sent an order to the entire army.

Soldiers, move forward slowly.

On the road, the Sky Eagle Army marched at an extremely slow pace, stopping and going again and again. At the end of a day, they often couldn't even reach thirty miles. With such a slow pace, they might not be able to reach Shangjing even in half a year.

.

After only two days, Yin Zhun couldn't stand it anymore. If he was out for fun, it wouldn't matter. He could still enjoy the scenery along the way. The key point was that he was going home now. He wanted to go home as fast as he could and wished he could have twins on his back.

Wing, he flew back to the palace in Beijing in an instant. How could he endure such a speed?

He himself did not dare to find Qiu Zhen and Ziying, but first attracted Yin Rou to embolden him.

After he saw Yin Rou, he said with a sad look on his face: "My dear sister, isn't the speed of traveling now too slow? If we continue like this, I'm afraid we will have to wait a year and a half before we can return to Beijing!

"

Yin Rou nodded. She also felt that the current progress was surprisingly slow. The Sky Eagle Army did not look like they were marching, but more like they were out for a walk. She said, "Brother, why don't you invite Mr. Qiu here and let him supervise the soldiers?"

Let’s speed up our march.”

Yin Zhun said quickly: "What the imperial sister said is absolutely true. I will send someone to ask Prime Minister Qiu to come over." As he spoke, he nodded to the maid beside him. The maid Fu Shen responded and left quickly.

.

After a short time, the maid brought Qiu Zhen over. Seeing that Yin Zhun and Yin Rou were both there, Qiu Zhen straightened his official uniform, stepped forward to salute, raised his hands and said, "I am here to see you, your majesty, the princess!"

"Qiu Aiqing is safe!" Yin Zhun subconsciously leaned forward and waved his hands to Qiu Zhen. His attitude towards Qiu Zhen was even more polite than that towards the imperial prime minister.

"I wonder what your Majesty has to do with your minister?" Qiu Zhen asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"Oh... well..." When Yin Chen was thinking about how to speak, Yin Rou on the side couldn't help but said first: "Master Qiu, how many miles can we walk in a day now?"

Qiu Zhen replied: "Reporting to the princess, the current day's journey is thirty miles."

"In other words, we haven't traveled a hundred miles since we left Zhenjiang?" Yin Rou asked with wide eyes.

"Yes, Princess."

"Then when will it take us to go to Beijing?" Yin Rou asked in a deep voice.

Qiu Zhen calculated carefully and replied cautiously: "Based on a journey of thirty miles a day, it will take two hundred and twenty-five days to reach Beijing."

Yin Rou almost laughed angrily when she heard this. What did she want to hear? Qiu Zhen even calculated a specific date for herself. She said: "Master Qiu, can't we speed up the journey? It has to take so long.

Arriving in Shangjing?"

Qiu Zhen looked helpless and said: "The princess doesn't know something. It's not that I don't want to arrive in Beijing as soon as possible, but that I really have no choice!"

Yin Rou asked in confusion: "Why do you say that?"

Qiu Zhen said: "When they returned to Beijing this time, all the adults in the imperial court moved with their families. Each of them brought a large number of family members and a large number of belongings. There were hundreds or thousands of carriages alone, and among them

Most of them are precious and heavy, and even if I want to speed up my march, I can’t move quickly!”

This was something that Yin Zhun and Yin Rou had never thought about. Looking back, as Qiu Zhen said, the imperial ministers bringing their families with them were indeed a big burden and slowed down the progress to a great extent.

Yin Zhun rolled his eyes, cleared his throat, and said: "Xiang Qiu, do you think this will work? Divide the soldiers escorting me into two waves. One wave will escort me and the emperor's sister first, and the other wave will escort all my dear ladies.

, In this way, all the family members who love you will no longer hinder my return to Beijing." As he spoke, he was afraid that Qiu Zhen would object, so he turned to look at Yin Rou and asked with a smile: "

Princess Huang, what do you think?"

Yin Rou nodded, feeling that the emperor's idea was a good one. She responded: "Just do what the emperor wants!"

What Yin Zhun meant was exactly what Qiu Zhen wanted. The latter still tried to be difficult. After pondering for a long time, Fang reluctantly said: "Since it is the wish of Your Majesty and the Princess, I can just do it."

"That's enough trouble for Qiu Aiqing." Seeing Qiu Zhen agreeing, Yin Zhun was overjoyed.

Qiu Zhen hurriedly bowed and said, "Your Majesty, kill the humble minister."

According to Yin Zhun's "intention", Qiu Zhen divided the Sky Eagle Army into two parts, one part was responsible for protecting the emperor in advance, and the other part was responsible for protecting the ministers and their families in the DPRK.

He did not divide the 100,000 soldiers of the Sky Eagle Army in half, but 90,000 in one wave and 10,000 in the other. The 90,000 soldiers protected the emperor and the princess, and the 10,000 old, weak, sick and disabled were responsible for escorting the imperial ministers.

.

Of course, he had his reasons for this arrangement. The emperor and the princess were the top priority, and there could be no mistakes whatsoever. Naturally, heavy troops had to be sent for protection. Compared with them, the ministers of the imperial court were insignificant. Ten thousand people were left behind.

The officers and soldiers accompanying me can be regarded as a great deal of care.

Of course, if something unexpected happens in the future, no one will be able to blame him.

Qiu Zhen and other ministers of the Feng Kingdom followed Yin Zhun and Yin Rou and went to Shangjing first.

Without the burden of those ministers and their families, the marching speed of the Sky Eagle Army seemed to suddenly explode, from the original thirty marches per day to three hundred marches per day, and the whole army was on a rapid march.

On the road, Qiu Zhen was in the carriage. At this time, there were two people in the carriage, one was Qiu Zhen, and the other was a man in black with an expressionless face.

At this time, Qiu Zhen was sitting cross-legged, and the man was kneeling aside with his head bowed. Qiu Zhen picked up the tea cup, looked at the man, and asked slowly: "You have clearly remembered everything I told you.

?"

"Don't worry, Prime Minister, all my subordinates will keep it in mind!"

"Well! Hidden Arrow never disappoints the king in his work. I hope you won't disappoint me this time." Qiu Zhen held the teacup and blew the hot tea in it slowly, then took out a hand and took it from his arms.

He took out an envelope, handed it to the man with a cold expression, and said indifferently: "This is the list. Anyone on the list must not be left behind. Even their family members will be killed. The defenders are here.
