Chapter 423: Mission
Chapter 423: Envoy
Jiang Lang was on a mission to a strong man, which was considered a grand event. There were more than 20 officials at all levels accompanying him. In addition to the 100 soldiers he brought with him, there were more than 500 soldiers who were protected. This also proves that Jiang Lang's status in the hearts of Emperor Jingtai was really not low. Of course, in addition to these people, there were 10,000 cavalrymen who had quietly entered the border and were ready to deal with the sudden situation at any time.
Of course, there are reasons why the court was so vigorous. First, this means that the court was officially on an envoy at this time. Gao Qiang had to be careful to ensure the safety of Jiang Lang, and at the same time, it also told Gao Qiang that the court actually dared to send Jiang Lang, which also showed his sincerity. However, the so-called lie that the Ming Dynasty wanted to attack Gao Qiang was self-defeating. Of course, the third point was naturally for Washi to show it.
Emperor Jingtai also attached great importance to it this time and personally sent Jianglang to the city gate. He was grateful for this Jianglang. He would not say anything else, but this new intention is still a key point.
After leaving the capital, the entire team was divided into three parts. The outer periphery was 500 cavalry transferred from the court, and the inner layer was Jiang Lang personally selected 100 people, including Sun Yuanbiao, and the innermost one was officials headed by Jiang Lang. This was peaceful in the territory of the Ming Dynasty. There was no surprise along the way. Moreover, whenever they stopped along the road, they were warmly treated by local officials. After all, Jiang Lang's status is extraordinary now. These local officials rarely have the opportunity to enter Beijing. Now they have the opportunity to curry favor with them. How could they give up? However, when Jiang Lang set off, he told the accompanying officials that it was strictly forbidden to accept any gifts, otherwise they would report to the court for disposal. Jiang Lang's words were authority. Even if there were people with the same official title as Jiang Lang in the accompanying official garden, sometimes it had nothing to do with the official title.
Few people dared to disobey Jiang Lang's words, so even if these officials below wanted to give him something, they had no way to go, so they could only entertain him well. Whenever they went there, Jiang Lang also inspected the local government affairs. Although this was not his jurisdiction, since he came, he naturally had to ask about it and paved the way for the two new laws to be implemented.
After more than 20 days of journey, Jiang Lang and others arrived at the border. The news of their mission had been notified Gao Qiang long ago, so after leaving the border, Gao Qiang's army escorted him.
On the day of leaving the border, soldiers stood on the border, and outside the border, the soldiers greeted by Gao Qiang were also waiting outside.
With his men out of the border, Jiang Lang's convoy lost to Gao Qiang's soldiers. After arriving, the convoy stopped and Jiang Lang also got off the carriage. Several generals in Gao Qiang's army also got off the carriage and walked towards Jiang Lang.
After walking, the general walked in front of Zi and bent down slightly and said, "Jin Shanyuan meets with the envoy of the Ming Dynasty, Lord Wang!"
Jiang Lang returned the gift and smiled and said, "Mr. Jin, don't be too polite!"
After saying that, he clapped his hands, Sun Yuanbiao immediately walked over with a box. Jiang Lang turned around slightly and said, "Mr. Jin, for the first time, there is no good gift. This is a small meaning. Please accept it."
Sun Yuanbiao also opened the box at this time, and there was a long sword with sheath inside. From the appearance, the casting was very exquisite.
Jin Shanyuan's eyes couldn't help but fall on the sword, then shook his head and said, "Sir, this gift is too expensive, I can't handle it!"
Jiang Lang laughed and said, "General Jin, you are too polite. The so-called sword is given to a hero. Although this sword cannot be called a sword, it was also cast by my first-class craftsman in the Ming Dynasty. It can be regarded as a gift for me to give to the general. Please don't refuse!"
Jiang Lang was also an envoy on the mission. Jin Shanyuan felt that he would be a little dissatisfied if he refused, so he nodded, reached out and picked up the sword in the box. He started to get a heavy hand, then pinched the hilt of the sword and pulled it gently.
"choke……!"
A dragon roar sounded.
In Jin Shanyuan's hand, there was a long sword with a flash of cold light. The sword body was long and thin, just like a pool of autumn water, and the cold air was so cold.
"Good sword!"
Jin Shanyuan couldn't help but praise, and then waved his hand, a soldier immediately pulled out his long sword, walked over, and then placed the long sword flat.
Jin Shanyuan tightened his hand and shouted softly. The sword in his hand slashed towards the knife. With a tingling sound, the sword in the soldier's hand actually broke and fell to the ground.
Jin Shanyuan was shocked. When he looked at the sword in his hand carefully, there was not even a scratch. While surprised, he returned the sword to the sheath and put the sword back on the box, saying, "It's indeed a sick sword! This tribute is too heavy!"
While he finished speaking, he did not let the guards of Jiang Lang look very calm. Even though he drew his sword and brought the sword to him, there was no change at all. You should know that if it were ordinary guards, they would have been here to protect him, and they did not move at all. One reason was that they were not surprised when dealing with things, and the other reason was that they had enough confidence in the person in front of him.
Thinking of this, Jin Shanyuan couldn't help but think of some information about the man in front of him who looked much younger than him. He really couldn't tell that the person who was indispensable in the Ming Dynasty and had great military achievements was actually the young man in front of him who looked so ordinary.
Moreover, a group of powerful subordinates, especially those outside, could see the difference immediately. However, the soldiers outside were not ordinary soldiers.
Jiang Lang saw that Jin Shanyuan was in a daze, and reminded him: "Mr. Jin."
Jin Shanyuan was stunned, came back to his senses and said, "I'm sorry, sir, it's too expensive just because sir this sword is completely considered a magic weapon!"
Jiang Lang waved his hand and said, "Mr. Jin, just as I said that a sword was given to a hero, please don't refuse!"
Seeing this, Jin Shanyuan refused, fortunately, so he took back his sword and said, "Sir, please get in the car, and we will protect him now."
Jiang Lang nodded and said, "Then I'll be the general!" Then he got on the carriage.
As soon as he got into the car, Jiang Lang suddenly found that there was one more person in Cheshan. When he looked at it, it turned out to be Zhu Yuqi.
This face changed involuntarily, then got into the car immediately, and then asked anxiously: "Yuqi, why are you here?"
Zhu Yuqi is now wearing a soldier's clothes and is now taking off her clothes. There is also a set of women's clothes opposite her.
Hearing Jiang Lang's words, Zhu Yuqi raised her head, looked at Jiang Lang, smiled sweetly, and said, "Sisters are not at ease with you, so we finally discussed it and let me follow you!"
"Come with you!"
Jiang Lang felt that his forehead was full of blue veins. It had been a long time since he set out from the capital, but he didn't find out. It would be not easy to hide it from him.
"Don't think about it!"
Zhu Yuqi had already taken off her clothes. Anyway, Jiang Lang was the only one in the car. After slowly changing her clothes, she said, "We asked Sun Yuanbiao to agree to hide me. And now we have left the border, you can't let me go back!"
"But it's very dangerous!"
Jiang Lang emphasized.
"I know!"
Zhu Yuqi didn't care at all, changed into her own clothes and said, "And you were assassinated some time ago, but you didn't give it to us!"
"How do you know?"
Jiang Lang couldn't help but wonder.
"There's nothing strange about this!"
Zhu Yuqi said lightly, "But you don't want to say it, and we understand that you don't want us to worry, so we naturally won't ask, but then again, we are all a family, you should tell us these things!"
Jiang Lang nodded slightly and said, "As you said, I really don't want you to worry about me, so this time I am on the mission Gao Qiang, I don't want any of you to come here, and I'm also worried that you are in danger! But I didn't expect you to follow me secretly!"
At this time, the carriage had already started to move and seemed to be moving forward.
Zhu Yuqi has changed her clothes now, and then smiled and said, "The carriage has started now, so you can't send me back!"
Naturally, I can't send her back in this way. Jiang Lang couldn't help but sighed slightly and said, "Okay, let's go with me!"
Zhu Yuqi leaned forward at this time and said, "Okay, okay, don't be angry, we won't be able to do it in the future, can't it be possible?"
Jiang Lang took Zhu Yuqi's hand, patted him gently, smiled slightly, and said, "You are also worried about me, how could I be angry? Since you have come, you can't let you go back, so let me accompany me to Gaoqiang!"
Zhu Yuqi smiled slightly and said, "It's natural, even if I'm here to be with you!"
"Don't say anything about swords and fire!":
Jiang Lang comforted, "Don't forget that we are now envoys of the Ming Dynasty. Gao Qiang dare not do anything randomly, otherwise they Gao Qiang can't bear this responsibility!"
After saying that, he opened the window and shouted: "Sun Yuanbiao!"
Sun Yuanbiao was stunned, turned his head and said, "Sir, what's the matter!"
Jiang Lang's face slightly darkened and he said, "I'm going back to settle the score for you!"
Chapter completed!
