Logically speaking, the Yan Bei Cavalry was only five thousand strong. Even if they were thrown into the Great Territory, which was close to the Wilderness, they would not be able to make a dent, let alone the border where the Northern Barbarians and the Daliang Empire were heavily stationed.
However, Daliang did not send any other soldiers to assist them. Instead, they allowed Xu Heyun to pass through.
As the 5,000 cavalry traveled eastward, the intelligence reports from the military governors of Lianghuai, the strategists, the generals, and other important officials were delivered to Luoyang at an urgent speed of 800 miles.
At this time, Yan Bei's cavalry marched straight in, trekking for many days, from Quanzhou, into Liuzhou, and then through Hengzhou.
No one came to block his way. Without any accidents or incidents, he arrived outside Luoyang.
"We're here!"
Xu Heyun said as he looked at the magnificent walls of Luoyang.
Yuan Jingming stopped his horse and nodded.
At this moment, a carriage slowly drove out of Luoyang and stopped in front of Xu Heyun.
A eunuch walked out of the carriage with an imperial edict made of silk in his hand. He looked coldly at the person whom the imperial court of Daliang despised and shouted,""The son of the King of Yan Bei, Xu Heyun, accepts the edict.”
"Xu Heyun, please go to the palace!”
"Arrange for the army to set up camp fifty li outside Luoyang. You can bring two hundred guards into the city.”
Just as he had expected, Xu Heyun silently accepted the imperial edict with a solemn expression.
The official snorted coldly, as if he was very dissatisfied with the young man in front of him.
With a swoosh, Ye Ningshuang's sword was already half unsheathed.
Seeing such a person who was disrespectful to her master, she did not care about the other party's identity. As long as her master acquiesced, she would not hesitate to attack.
Seeing this, the eunuch broke out in a cold sweat, and his hand holding the imperial edict trembled slightly. After handing over the imperial edict, he hurriedly entered the carriage and rode away.
"Everyone, camp on the spot!"
Yuan Jingming and Yan Bei's cavalry quickly dismounted and set up camp.
He looked at the carriage that had disappeared from his sight and said in a deep voice,"Second Young Master, I have chosen two hundred experts to follow you into Luoyang.”
"No, Second Brother Yuan!" Xu Heyun looked at the Yan Bei Cavalry and felt a sense of guilt.
"You and Ning Shuang can accompany me into the city. Let everyone rest here!”
Hearing this, Yuan Jingming was stunned. Why did his adopted brother, who had always been extremely overbearing, suddenly change his character?
Xu Heyun looked around at the 4,000-strong cavalry of Yan Bei. He sat on a rock without caring about his image and waved at his adopted brother.
Xu Heyun was in a daze as he said softly,""Second Brother Yuan, why do you think the dead soldiers died?”
Just like a child who was troubled by a problem and had to ask for advice from someone who had been through it before, although Xu Heyun was unscrupulous towards his enemies and was not a saint, he was not a person who treated human life as grass. He had always attached great importance to the people close to him!
Yuan Jingming did not expect his sworn brother to ask such a question. Not to mention the seven kingdoms, the total number of soldiers in Daliang and the Northern Barbarians was extremely large, and people died every day.
As for why he died?
Naturally, they would die for military orders.
Xu Heyun placed his hands behind his back and sighed.
"This world shouldn't be like this. This world shouldn't be like this!"
Yuan Jingming was stunned.
This handsome, mighty, and tall foster son of Xu Xiao finally took the young man in front of him seriously.
He gently patted her shoulder and said frankly,"Since the world is already like this, and we currently have no ability to change the world, don't blame yourself too much. You have to remember that you are the son of your adoptive father. What you have to do is not let them die in vain!”
Xu Heyun nodded and looked at the Yan Bei cavalry who were setting up camp in the distance. He said with a firm gaze,""I will!"
The next day at Si.
There were no images of cavalry galloping, nor was there any dust flying in the air.
A Daliang official led the way while Xu Heyun sat in the carriage. He led Yuan Jingming and Ye Ningshuang into the magnificent imperial capital of Daliang, Tai 'an City!
When the walls of Luoyang City were reflected in the eyes of Xu Heyun and the other two, they seemed to be getting taller and taller.
"As expected of Luoyang City."
Xu Heyun lifted a corner of the curtain and looked up.
He was dressed in a majestic black robe made by Yan Bei's Golden Thread Weaving Bureau. He smiled at the coachman and said,""Second Brother Yuan, Luoyang City is truly majestic. Have you been here before?”
Yuan Jingming, who was temporarily acting as the coachman, pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled,""I accompanied my foster father here a few years ago. If Second Young Master didn't mention it, I'm afraid I would have forgotten!”
The second son of the King of North of Yan, Xu Heyun, entered the capital.
It was said that there was no wall in this world that could not be leaked. Although Luoyang's walls were high, the wind was strong. There were countless ears and eyes, so the news could always spread to every corner at an alarming rate. Not long after Xu Heyun stayed in the Ma Yi Posthouse, the conflict between Yan Bei's cavalry and Quanzhou's cavalry became a hot topic.
As a result, the matter of the court officials personally welcoming Xu Heyun into the city also made people think that something was not right. While most of the people praised the Emperor's magnanimity, they spared no effort to scold the second son of the Prince of Yan Bei for his insolence.
They thought that the imperial court should just leave this traitor of Daliang outside the city and allow him to enter the city only when he woke up and knew how to submit a memorial to the Emperor to plead guilty.
Compared to the commoners who did not know the depth of the water, the civil and military officials in Luoyang, especially those who were qualified to participate in the morning court, were the ones who should have the most confidence to order Yan Bei's military and political affairs around. This time, they all fell silent for the first time.
Xu Heyun arranged for the 5,000 Yan Bei cavalry to stay in the camp outside the city. He only brought Yuan Jingming and Ye Ningshuang to stay in the Horse Posthouse.
I went down to a post house on a horse's back,
It had always been a posthouse that belonged to Yanbei Road, and it was one of the few posthouses that could be built in Luoyang.
Other than a few princes, the rest of the Daliang generals could only build their lodgings on the official road outside Luoyang.
However, after the King of Yan Bei, Xu Xiao, became a vassal, he rarely went to the capital to meet the emperor, so the posthouse had always been a desolate scene.
