The ninth son of the emperor was demoted at the beginning. I have a famous Chinese general.

at the same time.

Ning Yuanwu in the palace also received the news that Ning Quan had left Beijing.

"Oh? I'm leaving now."

After hearing the report, Ning Yuanwu said calmly.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Chief eunuch Wang Cheng said respectfully.

"Who sent him off?"

"Your Majesty, except for the Prime Minister, no one will see you off."

"Really? Sent out of the city?"

Ning Yuanwu raised his eyebrows and continued to ask.

"Your Majesty, no, we just said goodbye at the gate of the Prime Minister's residence." Wang Cheng said cautiously.

"Humph, this old fox! He's quite good at avoiding suspicion."

Ning Yuanwu sneered.

"I heard that he gave his daughter a dowry of one million, three hundred servants, and two hundred war horses?"

Then Ning Yuanwu asked again.

"Your Majesty, it is true. As far as I know, there are still two hundred crossbows."

Wang Cheng replied.

"Haha, the Longyou family is indeed rich and generous."

"Well, this way he has a better chance of survival."

Ning Yuanwu said with a deep gaze.

"Now that he's gone, many people will probably be unable to sit still, right?"

Suddenly, Ning Yuanwu changed the subject.

"Your Majesty is wise and powerful. According to spies, all parties are ready to take action."

"Among them, the Third Prince and the First Prince showed the most urgency."

Wang Cheng reported.

"Humph, these rebellious sons!"

Upon hearing this, Ning Yuanwu's eyes flashed with murderous intent.

"Your Majesty, do you want a servant..."

Wang Cheng lowered his voice and asked.

"No need. I've already given him a chance by letting him go."

"If you still lose your life, then it can only be said to be God's will."

Ning Yuanwu said decisively.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Wang Cheng respectfully left the imperial study.

..........

the other side.

The convoy headed towards the east city gate in a mighty procession.

"Wanyue, how are you? Are you feeling better now?"

Inside the carriage, Ning Quan stroked Li Wanyue's hair and comforted her.

"Yeah, much better. Thank you, husband."

Li Wanyue's pretty face flushed and she answered softly.

"Hahaha, no need to thank me, I am the king's princess."

Ning Quan laughed.

Li Wanyue smiled sweetly and leaned in Ning Quan's arms, feeling very warm.

"Your Highness, we're just ahead of the east gate. Another twenty miles out of the city, and we'll meet up with the carriage company's convoy."

At this time, Li Jing was reading a foreign exchange report through the car window.

"Oh, I see."

"General Li, after we leave the city, my safety will be in your hands."

Ning Quan nodded.

"Don't worry, Your Highness. I will protect you until my death."

Hearing this, Li Jing clasped his fists.

"Well, I'm relieved to have you here."

Ning Quan nodded with satisfaction.

.......

"Drive~drive~drive~"

The sound of horse hooves rang out, and the entire convoy quickly drove out of the East City Gate.

After leaving the East City Gate, the convoy did not stop but headed straight north.

After about an hour, the convoy reached the official road.

At this time, you can see from afar a long dragon-like convoy parked on the official road ahead.

That is the fleet of American Express, which has been waiting here early.

There was a man standing in front of the convoy, who was the luggage manager of the American Express.

He was personally responsible for this transportation mission.

After seeing Ning Quan's convoy, Manager Li hurried to greet them.

"I, Li Defu, pay my respects to His Highness."

"No gift."

"Shopkeeper Li, thank you for your hard work."

Ning Quan lifted the curtain and walked out, saying to Shopkeeper Li.

"Your Highness, I am sorry for the trouble. It is my honor to serve you."

Shopkeeper Li whispered.

"Well, is the team ready?"

"Your Highness, all the carriages are ready and can depart at any time."

Li Defu replied.

"Okay, let's go!"

Ning Quan nodded.

"Yes, Your Highness."

Li Defu responded and turned to leave.

A moment later, the convoy started slowly and headed north.

"Li Jing, Zhang Cheng."

Ning Quan shouted after the convoy started.

"My subordinate is here!"

Li Jing and Zhang Cheng obeyed the order immediately.

"Zhang Cheng, from now on, you will be under the command of General Li Jing."

"You must fully cooperate with General Li Jing and obey his orders absolutely."

Ning Quan ordered.

"Don't worry, Your Highness. I understand."

Zhang Cheng accepted the order.

"Well, you go down."

Ning Quan waved his hand.

"Subordinates resign!"

After he finished speaking, Zhang Cheng turned and left.

Zhang Cheng's strength is pretty good, and he's probably capable of leading troops in battle, but he's far inferior to Li Jing.

Li Jing is the god of war of the Tang Dynasty, who can compare with him?

If it weren't for Wan Yue's consideration, Ning Quan would have taken away Zhang Cheng's military power instead of letting him obey Li Jing's command.

It’s not because Zhang Cheng is unfaithful, but because there is a better one. Why would Ning Quan use an inferior one?

Perhaps Zhang Cheng had been reminded by Li Junchen in advance, so he had no objection to Ning Quan's arrangement and did not show any dissatisfaction.

This made Ning Quan very satisfied.

"General Li, the two hundred war horses given by the Prime Minister are now under your care!"

After Zhang Cheng left, Ning Quan said to Li Jing.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Li Jing cupped his fists and said.

"Well, you go."

"As ordered!"

Li Jing responded solemnly, then turned and left.

After Li Jing left, Ning Quan returned to the carriage.

"Wanyue, starting today, we will spend four months riding in a carriage. Thank you for your hard work."

After coming back, Ning Quan said to Li Wanyue with a smile.

"I'm not afraid. As long as I follow my husband, Wanyue is not afraid of anything."

Li Wanyue said sweetly, and then leaned into Ning Quan's arms.

Feeling the warmth from the beauty in his arms, Ning Quan smiled with relief and hugged Li Wanyue even tighter with his arms.

At this moment, Ning Quan was very moved.

As the daughter of the prime minister, she was willing to give up her wealth and glory for him and go to the border with him.

How could he let down such deep affection?

"Wanyue, I won't let you down."

Ning Quan lowered his head and kissed Li Wanyue's delicate face, and said softly.

"Ah."

Li Wanyue nodded shyly.

.......

The convoy continued on.

It was almost noon when we stopped to rest and eat.

After riding in the carriage for half a day, Ning Quan was a little tired, so he pulled Wan Yue out of the carriage to stretch their legs.

"Your Highness, Miss, I will prepare the meal right away. It will only take half a minute."

As soon as the two got off the car, Li Wanyue's personal maid Dongmei came up to them and said.

Li Wanyue has four personal maids, namely Chunlan, Xiahe, Qiuju, and Dongmei.

They are all in their early twenties, with pretty faces and good looks.

Of course, this has nothing to do with Ning Quan, at least not now.

"Okay, I understand. Let's keep lunch simple."

Li Wanyue ordered.

"Yes, miss, I will leave you."

After saying that, Dongmei turned and left.
