Chapter 547 People are coming
"Good boy!"
Qu Liang pulled the reins, looked at him and shouted, "You ran so fast, but I still caught you, right?!"
"Third Brother!"
Yan Jinyang rolled off the saddle and rushed towards him like a fly, his cheeks puffed up: "Don't even think about abandoning me, I want to go find my mother too!"
Xiaowu, who is always a crybaby, had no tears in his eyes. His bright eyes were full of stubbornness.
"How did you come?"
Yan Shiyan felt distressed and helpless: "You are too young, you can't stand just riding a horse."
The intensity of the long journey is not comparable to their morning exercises or riding practice.
When he was working in the Dali Temple, he came into contact with many people. He heard from the military generals that they had to ride on horseback all day long, which was not an easy task even for them who had been in the army for a long time.
What’s more, Yan Jinyang is only seven years old now?
"Third brother, don't underestimate me!"
Yan Jinyang was not convinced: "If you can do it, then so can I."
"Besides, I still have a master!"
Qu Liang nodded to Yan Shiyan and said, "If the Fifth Young Master is tired, I will take him for a while. I have a good reputation in the martial arts world, so the Third Young Master can trust me."
He is an old hand in the world, and all the kids know it.
In order to save Yan Jinyang, several people went to the strange ghost market and unveiled a corner of the mysterious veil of the world.
When you are away from home, having Quliang around really makes you feel at ease.
It is true that having an old person in the family is like having a treasure.
After saying that, Qu Liang turned his wrist, revealing the VIP token given by the Ghost Gate leader: "Knowing that you are going to Yumen Pass, the prince sent someone to send this token to me, asking you to be careful."
Guimen has been entrenched in the capital for many years, and the connections he has in the underworld are unmatched by any individual.
With this token, not only can one move freely, but even the most notorious bandits and famous sects will have to give him some respect. He can be said to be able to control both good and bad sides.
After all, no one dares to boast that they will never need to use the Ghost Gate.
When you are in the world, you are bound to get hurt. Everyone has bad luck sometimes.
Looking at the token, Yan Shiyan felt relieved.
In addition to the Ghost Gate Token, Yan Changqing also asked someone to bring Qu Liang travel passes for several people, all of which had their names written on them and were stamped with the seal of the Jingzhao Prefecture.
The other copies are blank road permits with complete procedures and names can be filled in as needed.
With these, the chaotic and unpredictable road ahead suddenly became much clearer.
Sure enough, what the fourth sister said was right. It was indeed too reckless for him to try to break through Yumen Pass alone.
Hearing Qu Liang mention Yan Changqing, Yan Shiyan asked: "What is father's plan?"
Qu Liang shook his head: "I don't know. I just heard that the prince broke into the Xie family before I left."
In this situation, he still remembered to ask someone to send the token and pass to Qu Liang. It seems that his father was not acting on impulse, but had a plan.
He and Yan Jinyin looked at each other and found that they both had similar ideas.
Yan Shiyan made a gesture: "You say."
Yan Jinyin said seriously, "I think my father wants to borrow troops to go to Yumen."
The price of being named a king of a different surname was the deprivation of the real power of commanding the army. No matter how high Yan Changqing's prestige in the army was, without military power, prestige was only prestige and could not do anything practical.
Yan Shiyan nodded: "Yes, so let's make a big fuss first."
Only in this way can you have the possibility of leading the troops.
Going straight to Xie Shu is more useful than going to the palace.
But leading troops to war is not such an easy task. There may be several more games of chance.
In addition to Xie Shu, there were others in the court who were unwilling to see Yan Changqing lead the troops again.
For example, the most staunch royalists would worry that Yan Changqing would become too successful and threaten the imperial rule.
"In that case," Yan Shiyan stood up suddenly, "let's not delay any longer and set off immediately to serve as scouts for father."
They are fewer in number, more mobile, and smaller targets.
First arrive at Yumen Pass to find out the situation, and then wait for Yan Changqing to lead the army.
"Wait a little longer." Yan Jinyin said.
"What are we waiting for? The sooner we arrive, the sooner we can take the initiative."
Yan Shiyan was extremely anxious: "Right now, my mother and second brother don't know what situation they are in. You..."
At the end of his speech, he was so anxious that he was speechless.
Glancing at the sun in the sky, Yan Jinyin estimated the time: "We'll wait until 3:45 pm."
She has already released the news, and those who are supposed to come will naturally come.
The journey was long, and she refused the servants' request to follow and serve her. Everyone must have enough determination to deal with all the difficulties that might arise.
Yan Shiyan waited patiently, and used this time to check the luggage of several people and replenish their water and dry food.
It was discovered that the common point in the luggage of several people was that they brought very few clothes but plenty of money. Qu Liang and Yan Jinyang also brought a lot of elixirs necessary for the journey.
The horses' hooves clattered and dust flew.
Hu Yanjin appeared in front of them with three elite guards and said in a muffled voice, "I am worried that I can't catch up with you and complete the task assigned by the general."
"General Huyan."
The three children came forward and saluted.
Among Yan Changqing's subordinates, the one they are most familiar with and closest to is this man of Hu descent.
It's just right to send him here.
Without his full beard, Hu Yanjin's personal characteristics were weakened a lot. However, his rich experience in the horse thieves' den and in the army made him very suitable for this mission.
However, he is now a Beijing official and not just a temporary official, so how can he go out at will?
Military orders are strict, and this is not just talk.
Yan Shiyan asked this question, and Hu Yanjin waved his hand and said, "With the general here, there won't be any problem."
He arrived late because he was going to the Weiwei Temple to complete the transfer order procedures.
A quarter of an hour before departure, Zhao Yuchuan arrived.
"Are you here to see us off?" Yan Shiyan asked.
In the past two years, Zhao Yuchuan has become familiar with everyone in the Princess's Mansion by using his excuses every now and then.
Zhao Yuchuan shook his head and patted the bag on his horse: "No, I'll go with you."
He was already seventeen years old, with a pair of sword-like eyebrows slanting into his temples, thick but heroic. He had restrained the rebellious temperament that he had when we first met, but his eyes still showed his unruly and wild nature.
Due to years of martial arts training, his limbs are agile and strong, and his body shape is more like that of a young man.
Yan Shiyan raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Do you know what we are going to do?"
He went to save his mother, what did the young master of Guan Wenxinhou want to do?
"I know. I'll go too."
Zhao Yuchuan said calmly: "The princess cares about the world, I am not talented, but I volunteer to go and be led by the third master."
He took out the pass from his bag and showed it to everyone: "Grandfather has approved it."
Of course, he omitted the fact that his mother insisted on not mentioning this part before he left.
A real man should travel far and wide to build up his career. How can he hide under his mother's wings and do petty things in the backyard?
Yan Shiyan's suspicious eyes turned back and forth on his face, and he grabbed his collar and went to a place away from people: "Tell me the truth, are you planning to take advantage of my fourth sister?"
Don't think he really can't see it.
When their mother was still in the mansion, she separated the two of them intentionally or unintentionally.
