Rebirth: The wedding night, my whole family was exiled, I raised 500,000 soldiers

Chapter 221: The leader of the Imperial Guard, Nie Shuanghai, surrenders!

"Shen Lanxi, how dare you slander me? Who doesn't want to marry a foreign princess?" Zhou Yunyue stomped her feet in anger.

Ban Sicao said with a smile: "Isn't he injured? I think he's fine. He can shout and dance, and his energy is still strong. He's in better shape than most people!"

Shen Lanxi chuckled, her laughter full of sarcasm.

Zhou Yunyue was angry and anxious, her face flushed red and tears welled up in her eyes.

"Shen Lanxi, if you dare to do this to me, I will never forgive you!" Zhou Yunyue pointed at Shen Lanxi and said harsh words, then ran to sit on a seat aside.

The marriage team is already in an awkward situation, and anyone with a discerning eye knows that those who are sent to the northwest this time are not welcomed!

From the princess to the palace maids who came with the dowry, and then to the officials in between, they were all awkward.

Including the leader of the Imperial Guard, Nie Shuanghai. He had been a member of the Imperial Guard for more than ten years, but he only managed to get the position of a small sergeant. If Zhao Chengkai had not died before and a group of Imperial Guards who followed him had not returned, leaving many positions vacant, he might still be patrolling the west gate now.

"General, the imperial edict states that you are the supreme commander in the marriage mission to the northwest. We all obey you!" Nie Shuanghai surrendered in a low voice.

Shen Lanxi glanced at him and nodded softly.

"Rest and eat first. I have asked the post station to prepare horses. I will ask the palace servants who can ride horses to select horses later."

"Yes!" Nie Shuanghai hurried to arrange the guards.

As for the officials of the Ministry of Rites, only people from the Ministry of Rites can make arrangements.

The people from the Ministry of Rites who came this time were the Ceremonial and Ritual Office, the Sacrifice and Sacrifice Office, and the Host and Guest Office. They are respectively responsible for auspicious ceremonies, auspicious ceremonies, and guest ceremonies. The guest ceremonies are for receiving foreign guests, while the others are in charge of etiquette.

Among them, Cao Ziling from the Department of Ceremonies and Officials was the leader.

"Master Cao, what should we do?"

"How about we follow Lord Nie's example and make friends with Shen Lanxi?

Cao Ziling said with a cold face, "We are officials appointed by the court, and we share the responsibility of marrying a princess. Why should we try to please her?"

"Nie Shuanghai is a leader of the Imperial Guards, and he is indebted to the Emperor, but he actually kowtows to a woman. He really brings shame to men like me!"

The other two Qinglisi looked embarrassed when they heard him say this.

They are all literati, and naturally look down on women.

But since leaving Beijing, they have walked here in such a mess, doesn’t that prove something?

The road to the northwest is full of high mountains and long rivers, and these civil servants, who can't carry anything, have to rely on these military generals for protection.

They didn't want to get into a fight with these warriors as soon as they left the capital.

But Cao Ziling was their superior. What if they contradicted him and he made things difficult for them when they returned to the capital?

Should we just bear with it a little longer?

……

After Shen Lanxi finished her meal, she set off immediately!

Many people had not finished their meals yet, and when they heard her order, they felt like they had bitter herbs in their mouths and hurried to pack up their things.

If I had known this earlier, I wouldn’t have hesitated. Now I have to starve to death on the road!

After what happened just now, Zhou Yunyue didn't dare to pick a fight with Shen Lanxi as she did before, but the situation didn't get much better either.

As soon as he opened his mouth he started complaining.

"This princess has not eaten enough, nor has she rested. Do you want to starve or tire me to death?"

Shen Lanxi remained unmoved.

She can deal with the people on her side however she wants.

Zhou Yunyue was arrogant in front of the officials who were in charge of the marriage, but when she turned around, she saw Shen Lanxi had already mounted the horse.

His expression suddenly changed.

"Shen Lanxi, how dare you not wait for this princess?" Zhou Yunyue was anxious.

Shen Lanxi didn't even give her a glance, she whipped the horse and set off again!

"Shen Lanxi, you are so bold!"

“Stop it now…”

"I'm going to tell my father to chop off your head..."

No matter how angry Zhou Yunyue was, Shen Lanxi didn't even look back, leaving only dust flying all over Zhou Yunyue.

"Puh, puh, puh..." Zhou Yunyue gritted her teeth and stared viciously in the direction where Shen Lanxi left.

Shen Lanxi, you are unkind and I am unjust, everything is your own fault!

"General, are you really not going to wait for them?" Ban Sicao asked curiously.

Shen Lanxi: "If you want to wait, then wait!"

"No, I don't want to bother with that kind of person. I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself and feed her some medicine!"

Shen Lanxi: "..." If you like feeding medicine to people so much, just take it yourself!

"drive……"

They galloped all the way until the horse could no longer hold on and stopped.

"Stop and rest!"

Ban Sicao was about to cry when she finally heard Shen Lanxi say it was time to rest.

"I'm actually just a weak scholar!" Ban Sicao lay on the ground without any image.

Shen Lanxi calmed down for a while and drank some water!

There was a water source nearby, so the soldiers led their horses to drink water.

Shen Lanxi called Xiaoxue to deliver a letter, and then released three carrier pigeons!

Shen Yuanjing: "We agreed with Qian Feng to meet at Jialing Pass. If we go by water, it can be three to five days faster!" There is no need to change horses by water. The disadvantage is that with so many people, at least three large ships are needed to accommodate them.

Ban Sicao couldn't wait to ask, "Let's take a boat? I've never been on a boat before!"

Shen Lanxi had already thought of the route in advance, and had specifically reported the route to Emperor Renxiao.

"it is good."

Xiao Fang and others immediately dragged Shen Yuanjing to look at the map.

In the blink of an eye, a quarter of an hour passed.

"General, why haven't they caught up yet?"

"General, there are many wolves on the road to the northwest. Do you want to let a few wolves out to have a try?" Xiao Fang was eager to watch the fun.

Shen Lanxi smiled and said, "This is too close to the capital, let's go a little further!"

Ban Sicao's eyes lit up: "Can I feed her some medicine? I will make sure they go to the northwest obediently."

Xiao Fang and the others said in unison: "Keep it for yourself and eat it!"

After they finished speaking, they immediately burst into laughter.

After the marriage team chased for a while, Zhou Yunyue ordered them to walk slowly.

"I am a princess. If something happens to me, who will you send to marry me?"

Nie Shuanghai looked worried. Shen Lanxi was not afraid of Zhou Yunyue, but they were!

Zhou Yunyue grabbed the carriage and kept shouting. Even if they wanted to go at full speed, there was no way!

"Princess, we must get to the next post before dark, otherwise we will have to spend the night in the wilderness. There are many wolves in the northern forests, and we are likely to be attacked by them!"

Zhou Yunyue didn't believe it. Where did the wolf come from in broad daylight? No one could scare her!

"If I say walk slower, then walk slower. If you don't listen, I'll send a pigeon to my father and ask him to punish you!"

Half of the people in the marriage team complained, and the other half supported Zhou Yunyue.

They were the princess's concubines, and although they were not pampered, they had never done any heavy work in the palace. How could they bear the hassle of rushing on the road like those stinky soldiers?

"General, it's been an hour and we can't even see their shadows. Should we send someone to check?"

Shen Lanxi's expression gradually turned cold.
