Chapter 623 Encountering a Famous General(1/2)

 When he heard Princess Changle's words, Xing'er and Wan'er were blushing on the side, and their eyes were both ashamed and happy.

It has been three years since Yang Fan bought them back from the market!

Although they have already reached the forefront, Yang Fan has never touched them, so they are naturally worried about gains and losses.

As the saying goes, the moon will be the first to get close to the water. Now that a wife says something, they are of course very happy.

However, the twin maids who were dowed by Princess Changle pouted slightly.

The owner of his family didn't give them such a great opportunity, and he felt a little angry.

They understood that when Xing'er and Wan'er came back, they might call them "hostess"!

Yang Fan could guess about women's little thoughts, but as long as it did not cause trouble in the back house, he would not want to intervene.

After finally comforting several of his beautiful wives, Yang Fan walked out of the door.

As soon as I stepped out of the yard, I saw my godmother, Empress Xiao, standing at the door with a crowd.

Yang Fan quickly walked forward and bowed to Empress Xiao, Wu Yang and others and said, "Godmother, mother-in-law, I'm just going to work in Jiangnan. You don't have to worry. As long as the situation is stable, the child will definitely come back to see you. I hope you will take care of your health!"

In fact, this trip to Jiangnan is not a big deal in Yang Fan’s opinion.

It’s just a trip to Jiangnan, not a mountain of swords and sea of ​​fire. What’s there to worry about?

Although he would definitely be embarrassed by the Jiangnan gentry, Yang Fan was confident that he would hold them all down.

But what Yang Fan didn't know was that for the Tang Dynasty people like Empress Xiao and Wu Yang, Jiangnan was thousands of miles away.

Going to the south of the Yangtze River is like wading through mountains and rivers, with high mountains and long roads.

Due to inconvenient transportation, Jiangnan in this era is like a long distance between mountains and rivers for the people of Guanzhong.

Empress Xiao was completely despised from the dignity and grace of the past, and forced a smile and said, "My son travels thousands of miles apart. As a mother, of course he is worried. Although you know that the child has his own place to go when he grows up, you are also worry-free, but you are inevitably feeling empty."

Wu Yang immediately followed and said, "Yes, son-in-law, you have traveled thousands of miles, so how can we not worry? No matter what, you have to be more careful!"

That's it, but fortunately, there was a little less worries this time after all.

The Jiangnan area is much better than Tubo no matter how arrogant the Jiangnan gentry did not dare to blatantly attack Yang Fan.

The elders' earnest advice, and a faint sorrow of parting filled the entire space for a moment.

Yang Fan didn't say anything, but just saluted Empress Xiao and Wu Yang again, repeatedly reminding him to pay more attention to his health.

Chai Lingwu, who came to see him off, also had his eyes flushed and said, "Master, although a man is determined by all directions, he must do his best to achieve success. If he really can't do it, then come back to Chang'an. Safety is the most important thing!"

"But don't worry, during your departure, as long as I am here for a day, the demons and monsters will not move the Yang Mansion at a slightest moment. You can leave without any worries..."

Yang Fan thrusts in his heart and said, Brother, are you cursing me?

Chai Lingwu's words completely annoyed Wu Meiniang and scolded: "You guy can't speak, so don't talk. How could you say goodbye like this?"

Princess Baling also glared at Langjun fiercely. This Langjun is too ignorant!

Chai Lingwu looked unhappy and shouted, "Why are we saying the wrong thing? You are so ignorant..."

He had no idea what was wrong with his words.

Yang Fan not only taught him martial arts, but also gave him the ice making business. It was also very affectionate, and we were worried about it too!

Why do you just dislike me so much, even your own wife?

Yang Fan stepped forward and hugged the boy. Chai Lingwu was obviously not suitable for this kind of etiquette in later generations. He was stiff all over and said a little disgusted: "Master, is this hug and hug a little unsuitable? We are not a rabbit...Oh!"

This kid was naturally punched by Yang Fan.

However, a burst of laughter made the sorrow of parting slightly dilute!

Yang Fan turned around and looked at Wu Meiniang and said, "Take good care of the family for me."

As he said that, he looked at Changle and Princess Gaoyang again, turned around and strode away in everyone's reluctance.

Outside the gate, the special forces from Yang's mansion and Junyang's guards had already gathered to stand by.

Seeing Yang Fan come out, Xi Junmai shouted: "Get on the horse and get ready to go!"

Thousands of people were agile and turned on horses, with uniform movements, with only the sound of armor brushing, and a fierce and fierce aura on their firm faces.

Xi Junmai is worthy of being a famous general. After his training, these guards are absolutely no less than those of the Xuanjia Army, which has experienced many battles.

"Everyone has it, go!"

As he said that, Yang Fan turned over and headed straight to the Weishui Wharf outside the city.

The guards swayed their horses together, and the sound of horse hooves shattered the silence of midnight.

The Jinwu Guards patrol streets in Chang'an City had already received orders, without any obstruction, and opened the city gate and let Yang Fan and his party go out of the city.

Under the cold moonlight, the river water was stirred by boats, making a sound of waves hitting the shore.

His Majesty Li Er stood on the shore and watched the children of major families who were "scammered" by Yang Fan and kept getting on the boat, he was a little puzzled: "What do this kid wants so many people? And he is so low-key and it's really strange to set off at night."

More importantly, there are at least hundreds of ships on the dock. Why did Yang Fan pull so many cargoes?

In his opinion, Yang Fan's journey south this time required a strong attitude to oppress the gentry in Jiangnan so that they did not dare to be afraid to be afraid of the rat.

Originally, His Majesty Li Er wanted to hold a grand farewell ceremony, which undoubtedly made Yang Fan's limelight even more popular.

But Yang Fan walked the other way and set off in the middle of the night, feeling a little lacking in confidence.

Seeing His Majesty Li Er's appearance, Yang Fan quickly explained: "These ships are not only material, but also weapons and supplies for the Esseni. I have already said this. These things are inevitably too conspicuous during the day, and they are afraid of being used by those who are interested, so they are inevitably full of verbal talk."

"However, if you want to open up the situation in Jiangnan, you must not be naked. You must know that the Jiangnan gentry seems docile, and the eaters eat people and don't spit their bones."

After looking at Li Er who came to work hard for him in the middle of the night, it was nonsense to say that he was not moved.

He naturally understood the implication of His Majesty Li Er and smiled and said, "I must fight against the Jiangnan gentry this time. Those little tricks are impossible to make the Jiangnan gentry afraid."

"Once it involves interests, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is life or death. No one will surrender easily, so naturally he will take more people away."

His Majesty Li Er said silently.

Of course he knew that Yang Fan would have many difficulties in going south this time, but he didn't expect that Yang Fan would attach so much importance to it.

However, I felt a little more anticipated, so I asked with concern: "Then what are your plans? However, I would like to warn you that you can't be in the bloody storm in Jiangnan."

Yang Fan laughed, pointed at the guard behind him, and said proudly: "Your Majesty, you can rest assured. Is it so easy for those people to stop me from going to Jiangnan?"

"Your Majesty, wait. The day when I, Yang Fan, came back, is the time to recover Jiangnan. Do you still remember what I said? Jiangnan is just a group of clowns jumping. The ambition of Wei is the vast distance and the vast sea of ​​waves!"

More than a thousand guards, hundreds of children of aristocratic families, and countless baggage horses, were loaded with nearly fifty ships of various types.

The boats took advantage of the moonlight to sail into the Wei River and flowed eastward, filling the river with a vast and magnificent view of hundreds of boats competing for the current.

Seeing the ship gradually fading away, Li Er couldn't help but explain: "It would be great if you can open up the situation when you go to Jiangnan. If you really don't do it, you can't force it. I want Changle and Gao Yang to become widows."

"Thank you for your concern." Yang Fan was inexplicably moved and hurriedly said, "This time I go to Jiangnan, I will definitely not disappoint Your Majesty."

After saying that, he was about to turn around and leave.

But before Yang Fan turned around, Li Er said again: "Concubine Yang asked me to go to Jiangnan to pay tribute to Emperor Yang of Sui. I have already agreed. She has set out and help me take care of her on the way!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Fan was a little surprised and quickly agreed.

I thought Concubine Yang was just a joke, but I didn't know that she was just a real person.

However, if someone is with you, I think I won’t be lonely all the way.

When it was getting brighter, Yang Fan's fleet finally caught up with Yang Fei's ship in Tongguan.

Tongguan is across the Yellow River from the north and borders Shanxi from the east, and borders Henan from the Hangu from the east. At the same time, the Yellow River and Wei River converge here. It has been a military important place that military strategists must fight for since ancient times.

Throughout the dynasties, checkpoints were set up on the river surface of Tongguan to collect commercial taxes on merchant ships.

However, as long as you see these hundreds of ships and the flags on the bows from afar, no one will be blind and intercepted by death.

Even the guards of Tongguan ordered soldiers to open the gate and release them, dispersing all merchant ships to ensure that Yang Fan's fleet passes first, and seize the time to board the ship to pay homage to the imperial concubine.

Even officials with deep backgrounds who were not as good as the treacherous officials and the imperial concubine passed by, even officials with deep backgrounds did not dare to wait.

The rule in the officialdom is that everyone carries a sedan chair. If you offend such a bright future today, how can you know that it will not fall into the hands of others in the future?

As the saying goes, there are many people who are not surprised. Even in different camps, there are few open negligence.

What's more, who knows one day when the wind changes, the current opponent will become a comrade in the same camp?

After casually meeting the generals of Tongguan, he passed Tongguan with great success.

After leaving Tongguan, Yang Fan came to Yang Fei's ship in the name of paying homage.

The person in charge of guarding the safety of the ship was a general named Cheng. He was tall and strong in his forties, and his body was as strong as an iron tower.

"The county magistrate has become a young man. He is already the governor of Jiangnan at a young age. He is really lucky! Congratulations!"

"However, you can go south to show your skills at a young age, but you can only escort the concubine, which really makes me envious!

This person is very familiar with him. Although he doesn't recognize Yang Fan, he is not familiar with him.

As soon as we meet, we will make compliments, which is not annoying.

As the saying goes, he doesn't hit the smiley person, Yang Fan smiled and clasped his fists and said, "Yang Fan is here, haven't you asked the general for your surname?"

The middle-aged man clasped his fists and said to himself: "Thank you, Mr. Cheng Mingzhen, for your love. This time he returned to Beijing, the main reason is that His Majesty has no one to escort the Empress back to Jiangnan to visit his relatives."
