Chapter 49 The arrival of the Tiger Guard Beiya Army

Someone looked at Gu Yue, who was standing in the front. Han Tai and others could be said to be important ministers of the imperial court who apparently belonged to the Zhenbei King faction.

These important officials in the court were all close confidants of King Zhenbei, and they might know one or two of them.

This proposal sounded, and many courtiers fell into silence.

Just kidding, how old are their official positions? Ask these big guys?
If you were scolded on the spot, wouldn't you lose all your dignity?
In the future, it will leave a bad impression of being impetuous and impetuous, and your official career will be bleak.

When all the ministers dare not come forward.

At this moment, there is one person, but he is also full of questions, which is different from the other ministers.

Prime Minister Zhang Yuanbo directly rubbed Guyue's sleeve. When the other person looked at him with a frown, he seemed not to notice the other person's displeasure at all and asked:
"Master Gu, I wonder what big show the prince asked us to come to watch on the city wall today?"

Hearing this, Gu Yue shook his head even though he was a little annoyed with this old boy.

"can not say?"

Zhang Yuanbo asked.

"No, I don't know."

"You don't know either?"

Seeing this situation, Zhang Yuanbo became more and more hesitant.

However, he did not doubt Gu Yue's words. He and Gu Yue were old partners, so he naturally knew that the other party's character would not lie at all.

Even Guyue didn't know, and Han Tai and others were probably kept in the dark.

This made Zhang Yuanbo even more curious.

He didn't believe that the King of Zhenbei was just bringing the ministers together as a prank. Something big must have happened.

Only in this way can it be consistent with the big drama the other party talks about.

Zhang Yuanbo pondered in his heart.

While thinking about it, he glanced in the direction outside the east city wall, narrowing his eyes slightly, not missing any clues.

But after observing a few breaths, Zhang Yuanbo still reluctantly gave up.

Outside the city wall, except for a few hills to the east, there is an unobstructed plain.

If there is any disturbance, it will definitely not escape his eyes.

Time passed quietly in the hearts of the ministers, who were anxious and confused, and soon came to the next moment.

Under the city wall, there was a sudden sound of restlessness.

When the sound came closer, the ministers realized that it was the sound of guards in armor kneeling down.

Looking under the inner city wall, a figure surrounded by a group of people soon appeared in front of the ministers.

The person who came was wearing a dark red robe with auspicious clouds and dragon patterns on it, and cloud boots on his feet. His hair was tied into a crown, and his black hair was dancing in the wind.

A pair of deep eyes are like being dipped in ink, as if staring into an abyss, giving people a feeling of unfathomable depth that cannot be looked directly into.

"See Your Majesty!"

"I have seen the prince..."

……

The next moment, when their eyes fell on that familiar face, the ministers were startled from their trance, and then they hurriedly shouted in greeting.

It was Chu Yuan who came.

At this moment, Chu Yuan came directly to the top of the east city wall with the ministers bowing slightly.

He looked directly at a hill beyond the east city wall.

That area was the path that the 20 troops of the Tiger Guards and Beiya Army had to pass through when they came to rescue the capital.

Raising his head slightly, Chu Yuan looked at the time. It was almost time, so the 20-strong army gathered by Jiang Rui during his lifetime must have arrived.

"How is it?"

Chu Yuan said.

"My lord, it's already less than ten miles away."

Su Zhidao, who was standing alone on the city wall without saying a word, stepped forward to respond.

I'm afraid he is the only one in the entire city who knows what Chu Yuan's question really means.

"Okay. Then just wait."

Chu Yuan said.

The conversation between the two seemed extremely brief, without a single unnecessary word.

This also caused all the ministers present to look at each other, and they could all see question marks in each other's eyes.

What ten miles?
What are they waiting for?
……

The city tower continued to fall into silence. Chu Yuan did not tell the ministers the answer, so naturally no one dared to ask directly.

Finally, the time has come.

And at this moment, as if echoing the current time, there was finally movement in the hills to the right in the distance of the city wall.

Pieces of birds flew directly from the dense forest, singing and flying towards further distances.

At the same time, the officials far above the city wall also sensed some special movements at this moment.

The gravel on the city wall seemed to be beating slightly at the moment, as if it had been shaken by something.

And the frequency of this beating is still gradually increasing and accelerating as the vibration sound not far away increases.

Both of these reactions indicate that something is rapidly approaching in the distant hills.

Could this be the big drama that King Zhenbei was talking about today?
The ministers thought to themselves.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on the hills not far away, wanting to get a glimpse of the truth.

Soon, the strong sound of vibration reached a peak, and finally, from the hills in the distance, the figures of war horses rushed out from the hills.

Then what appeared was a company of two armies.

As officials of the imperial dynasty, some people with good eyesight have already recognized at a glance that the large banner in the army is the flag of the two armies of the dynasty, the Tiger Guard and the Beiya Army, which are responsible for guarding Jubei Pass.

"Boom boom boom——"

……

The muffled sound of war horses trampling the ground, as well as the uniform clashing of armor as the army marched, were directly heard by the ministers at this moment.

Countless soldiers filed out of the hills, and more and more armored soldiers from both armies rushed towards the capital.

Under the pressure of the military force, all the officials on the city wall looked solemn at this moment.

Everyone's eyes were following the army approaching the city wall. They didn't understand why the defenders of Jubeiguan, who were still far away from the capital, appeared at the foot of the capital.

Who mobilized them?
What is intended?

Could it be the King of Zhenbei?

The ministers' eyes wandered, looking at King Zhenbei who was standing on the city wall with no fear on his face, and their hearts were in their throats for a moment.

"Boom boom boom——"

"Sorry-"

……

The sound of soldiers arriving in the capital and the sound of galloping war horses getting closer and closer.

Tens of breaths later, on the plain in front of the east city wall, as far as the eye could see, there were densely packed army formations, no less than 20 in total.

So many troops suddenly appeared in the capital, and all the ministers' eyes were focused on the area where the commander was under the banner.

They were eager to find out the reason for the mobilization of this large army and why they were approaching the capital.

"Da da da--"

……

The questions in the minds of the ministers were not kept for long, and soon a line of soldiers and horses emerged from the army.

Surrounded by all the soldiers, they marched towards the east wall of the capital.

"A certain person is Wang Sheng, the assistant general of the Tiger Guard, and he has the imperial order. Please open the city gate quickly and let us enter the city!"

"A certain person is Yuan Peng, the captain of the Beiya Army. He is stationed in the capital on official business. Please open the city gates quickly!"

……

While the ministers' eyes were still focused on the formation of soldiers and horses, they saw two of them holding up an imperial edict and shouting loudly, asking the city guards on the east wall to open the city gate.
