Chapter 132 Turn his world upside down!
Kyoto.
Gu Xi looked at the towering city gate in front of him and the civil and military officials who came to greet him at the foot of the city. He felt no joy of triumph in his heart. Instead, he felt the grief of the unjust deaths of his grandfather and father in the original owner's memory.
She closed her eyes, then opened them again, hiding her sadness and leaving only her eyes full of fighting spirit.
Beijing, here I come!
Goal: Turn his world upside down!
Those who owe the Gu family money should expect to be repaid tenfold or a hundredfold!
Just as everyone was slowly approaching the city gate and about to enter the city, a eunuch who was delivering the imperial edict suddenly came galloping over on horseback, passing directly past the civil and military officials, and stopped in front of Gu Xi and Chu Zhao, shouting in a hoarse voice:
"Your Majesty has issued an imperial decree, granting a royal carriage. General Chu and Commandant Qi dismounted and rode in the carriage around the capital to accept the congratulations of the people.
In addition, Major General Chu and Commander Qi can each bring three personal guards into the capital, and the cavalry battalion will be temporarily placed in a guard post outside the capital, awaiting rewards.
The Royal Guards took over the Turkic royal family members and paraded behind the royal carriage. "
The eight hundred cavalrymen looked at each other in bewilderment. Most of them were born and raised in the Northwest, and they were all looking forward to going to Beijing this time.
Along the way, they imagined the hustle and bustle of the capital city and the people's welcome after they arrived in Beijing.
Unexpectedly, the emperor wouldn't even let them enter the city.
Chu Zhao smiled bitterly. He knew that the emperor was always suspicious. He probably knew that these 800 cavalrymen had made great achievements and must be extraordinary. That was why he did not dare to let all of them enter the capital.
There was a hint of sarcasm on Gu Xi's lips. If she wanted to bring 800 people into the capital, it would be very simple. She could just put them in a space villa.
This old emperor is actually so suspicious. Isn't he afraid that their achievements will become too great for him? What if they rebel?
But what he didn't know was that the real killer was never the eight hundred cavalrymen, but her, Gu Xi!
After receiving the imperial edict, Chu Zhao brought Lu Xiaowu, Wu Dajiang and Li Yong, while Gu Xi brought Liu Erdan, Zhu Dadan and Hu Guilin, and they entered the capital city surrounded by civil and military ministers.
As soon as he entered the city, Gu Xi saw a flash of golden light before his eyes.
[Complete the hidden mission: Enter Kyoto. ]
[Reward: The skill Light Body Kung Fu is upgraded to the next level. ]
[Current level: Level 3.]
It seemed that every time she arrived at a key new map, the system would distribute random rewards.
As soon as the rewards were given, the system released new tasks. The difference was that this time, two tasks were released at the same time.
[Main task: Emperor Jichang personally issues an order to redress the injustice done to the Gu family.]
[Completion Reward: Upgrade any one skill to the Hall of Fame level.]
[Side Mission 1: Investigate the reason why Beiyan's secret letter appeared in Gu's study.]
[Completion Reward: Upgrade any skill by one level. ]
In other words, there may be other side quests later, but the ultimate goal is to complete the main quest and vindicate the Gu family.
Gu Xigang was still thinking that the old emperor had better be polite and not provoke her, otherwise she wouldn't mind shooting the dog emperor.
But the system seemed to know what she was thinking and issued such a main task.
It seems that we cannot just kill them. If we want to rehabilitate the Gu family and make the truth of their treason known to the world, we must find out the whole story. The dog emperor must also personally issue an order to rehabilitate the Gu family before the mission is completed.
While Gu Xi was thinking, the carriage had already entered the main street of the capital, and people were watching the excitement on both sides.
Someone shouted loudly, "The Northwest Army is mighty!", and a young girl blushed when she saw Chu Zhao and Gu Xi, and threw sachets at them.
Gu Xi: “…”
The girls in Beijing are so enthusiastic!
However, why did most of the sachets go towards Chu Zhao?
Isn’t she handsome and elegant enough?
Gu Xi looked at Chu Zhao with a chill as he was waving at the people. He looked like a peacock spreading its tail.
Feeling a chill on his back, "Peacock" trembled and immediately gave up.
"Huh? When did these things come into my hands? I didn't even notice! They are so ugly, I hate them!" Chu Zhao's smile faded, and he threw the sachet in his hand towards the crowd. Then he frowned and sat upright.
Gu Xi rolled his eyes and said, "Tsk, do you think I believe it?"
But soon, the people stopped throwing sachets at them, as they were attracted by the Turkic royal family members following behind them.
Foreigners are rare these days, and everyone wants to see whether the Turks have three heads and six arms.
Contrary to what they imagined, these Turks had one head and two hands just like them, but their eyes were very different.
The eyes of the Turks are deep blue, with deep eye sockets. Some children were frightened and cried loudly, shouting:
"Monster!"
Then many people threw rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs at the Turkic royal family, and the streets were in chaos for a while.
If the Imperial Guards hadn't stopped it, it would have gotten out of control.
After half a day, the parade was finally over, and Gu Xi and others entered the palace under the guidance of the eunuchs.
The emperor specially prepared a celebration banquet for them, accompanied by civil and military officials.
The Anning Kingdom's palace was several times larger and more magnificent than the Turkic royal palace.
The palace has carved beams and painted buildings, and the interior decorations are magnificent.
It looks rich at first glance.
Well, should she consider taking a trip to the Dog Emperor’s warehouse?
Before the banquet began, the emperor asked the eunuch to announce the imperial edict.
Qi Dasheng was conferred the title of a third-rank mighty general, granted the title of Zhenxibo, and given a house.
General Chu was granted the title of Guannei Hou.
Chu Zhao was appointed as the third-rank General of the Western Expedition, which was one level lower than Gu Xi.
Chu Shiting was originally a third-rank general. He was not promoted this time, but was rewarded with a lot of gold and silver.
The officers and soldiers of the cavalry battalion and the Northwest Army were also rewarded.
With three generals in one family, and promoting both the grandfather and grandson at the same time, Emperor Jichang felt that he was very generous.
After Gu Xi and others expressed their gratitude, the banquet officially began.
During the banquet, all the ministers flattered the Chu family and Gu Xi in various ways.
Gu Xi was not good at socializing. She was thinking about the unjust case of the Gu family, so she memorized all the officials who came to toast her, including their names, positions, and facial features.
Finally, the banquet was over. Gu Xi hurried out of the palace gate and prepared to go to his uncle's house to take a look. Then he heard a voice behind him:
"Zhenxibo, please stay."
Gu Xi looked back and saw that the person who came was short and stocky, with a smile on his face, but he always gave people a hypocritical feeling. It was the Minister of Personnel Shi Huairen.
"Master Shi, what advice do you have?" Gu Xi asked with his arms folded without even greeting.
Anyway, she is a rough guy in the army, and that's her image, so she can do whatever she wants.
