Outside the city, there were also loud voices, but the voices were not as solemn as the ones in the imperial city. It was loud and noisy mixed with strange shouts and whistles.

The student scribes have already stood in front of the soldiers at the forefront.

"you…"

One of them pointed at the soldiers standing on the horse and shouted to get off the horse.

Before the words came out, the soldier looked over blankly.

Unlike those retreating soldiers, there was no fear or anxiety in his eyes.

It's like a wooden man without emotion.

This indifferent look of life and death can only be possessed by those who have experienced countless lives and deaths.

No anger didn't raise the bow and crossbow, but it made the student shudder and his hand stopped.

Zhao Hanqing also looked at the people rushing in front of him without the slightest fear, but rather bored.

She didn't feel any sinners or merits, let alone anger, sadness, panic, she just obeyed orders.

There is no order for her to deal with the situation, just wait.

The generals in the army formation looked gloomy, with sad eyes, and the sudden sound of horseshoes, it turned out that Cheng Guogong was urging the horses.

"Let me meet them," he said.

When I saw you at this time, I felt a little forced and helpless.

But that's the only way to go. You can't be trapped here. You really can't even enter the imperial city. Then Cheng Guogong's prestige and the Northland Army's face will be completely lost.

From then on, they will become a joke of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

It took ten years of fighting to gain fame, and it disappeared in one day, which makes people sad and helpless.

In fact, even after entering the imperial city, with these two obstacles, the joy and pride of this reward is gone.

They parted to make way and rode their horses to follow, but at this moment, Cheng Guogong suddenly reined in the horse.

"Listen," he said, listening.

listen? What are you listening to?

The generals froze for a moment, and subconsciously listened.

There seems to be a faint sound of footsteps in the distance, to be precise, it is not listening, but feeling.

Feel the vibrations coming from the ground.

The ground was really shaking. Although it was very slight, it could still be judged that many people were walking towards this side.

This kind of vibration is not caused by the trampling of horseshoes, but by the landing of human feet.

It takes at least tens of thousands of people to cause this kind of vibration by people's footsteps.

Thousands of people are coming this way?

Are you watching the lively people?

Is this coming a bit late and too dense?

The generals couldn't help but look back, and the soldiers in the army also noticed it and looked back.

When the two of them turned their heads in unison, the noisy people around couldn't help but stop.

"What are you doing?"

"What are you looking at?"

They discussed and looked back.

Chen Qi, who was standing on the roof of the carriage, wobbled unsteadily and sat down.

"What's going on?" He said angrily, and scolded the coachman, "Watch the carriage steady, don't shake it."

The coachman held onto the carriage anxiously.

"Qiye, it's the ground shaking," he said.

What kind of ground... Chen Qigang was about to ask, but shopkeeper Liu, who was still standing on the roof of the car, suddenly reached out and punched him.

Because Chen Qi sat down, the shopkeeper Liu didn't know, and put his hand directly on his head.

"Hey, head, head." Chen Qi shouted, covering his head.

Shopkeeper Liu didn't stop or look at him.

"Look, look, there are a lot of people over there." He said.

so many people? How many people can there be? Everyone in the capital is here.

Sitting on the roof of the car, Chen Qi turned his head to look, his eyes widened suddenly.

My mother, he shouted in his heart, there are so many people.

It is densely packed like a line coming from the sky.

Chen Qi and Fang Jinxiu went to watch the tide this year, and they were shocked by the scene of Qiantang River's tide coming in.

Looking at the person in sight at this moment, it was as if he saw the tide of the Qiantang River again.

How can there be so many people?

Who is this?

Shopkeeper Liu stood tall and looked far away, with a dazed expression.

"Looks like... a refugee," he said.

refugees?

Chen Qi narrowed his eyes, and the crowd in his sight was getting closer and closer, and he could clearly see that there were people of all ages walking in the front.

They are ragged, they are dusty, and their faces are full of vicissitudes.

The woman is holding the child, the old man is leaning on a wooden stick, and the man is supporting the woman, supporting each other and faltering.

It seems to have crossed the mountains and waded through the water, trekking thousands of miles and rushing.

Like thousands of miles of lightning, thousands of miles of thunder rolling, covering the clouds and covering the sun.

……………………

The noise gradually stopped.

The booing crowd raised their hands to their mouths and looked at the crowd in astonishment.

The student of literati pointed to the soldier in front of him, but he and the soldier did not look at each other, but also looked at the crowd rushing.

The crowd is getting closer and closer, and it can be seen that these people have different identities, but they are indeed very ordinary people.

Neither literati nor soldiers.

Come to see the lively people.

The fact that Cheng Guogong was summoned by the emperor for boasting the streets was announced long ago, and people from many places came to see it. Those who drive horses come on foot.

Those who are coming now are people from farther places, so they arrived at this moment.

It's good to watch the excitement, no matter Cheng Guogong violently beats and kills, or dismounts his armor and pleads guilty, everyone will see and spread it.

And their integrity and prestige can also become famous all over the world. With the experience of confronting high-ranking officials like Cheng Guogong, whether they will be officials or enter schools in the future, this is a prominent qualification.

Come and see, the more you come, the better.

The literati students are more energetic.

"But, aren't there too many here?" A student suddenly murmured.

The crowd at the front is already in front of them, but there are still dense crowds in the distance, which seem to come endlessly from the horizon

"There must be thousands of people here."

……………………………

The sound of drum music outside the imperial city had stopped, the emperor was sitting upright, with a gentle smile on his face, and beside him were seven or eight important ministers who had been summoned to accompany him.

Without the sound of drums, the cheers of the people outside the imperial street became clearer, which made the emperor feel very happy.

Sweeping across the city gate, the officials were already lined up in order, but the standing still seemed a bit messy, probably because many people were talking in low voices.

This scene is a bit ugly.

However, the emperor has always been good-tempered and did not scold him, but turned to ask him the question he was most concerned about.

"Where is Cheng Guogong?"

But when the ministers who were smiling at first heard this question, they suddenly looked weird and seemed a little uneasy, and no one took the initiative to answer for a while.

This is a bit disrespectful in front of you.

But the emperor still didn't get angry, not even a trace of displeasure. If someone looked carefully, he could see that the smile in his eyes was even stronger.

"What's wrong?" He asked proactively, "Is everything going well?"

After all the inquiries like this, I can't still answer. A minister hesitated for a moment and stood up.

Speak, Speak.

The emperor looked at him gently.

The sound of footsteps interrupted the conversation here.

Lu Yunqi didn't care about the rightness of the ruler and his ministers here, and didn't ask for permission. He went straight past the minister to the emperor's side, whispering a few words in his ear.

The minister saw the emperor's complexion suddenly changed, he seemed surprised and annoyed.

Well, the mood and speed are good, and it is still the second update today.
