Chapter 282 Return to Langtian
Waving the sky.
When Hu You returned to Langtian, he did not alarm anyone. At least ordinary people and soldiers did not know that the leader of the Immortal Legion had returned to this thousand-year-old ancient city.
The lives of the people have not changed any changes because of Hu You’s return. What should be eaten or what should be done is still to work.
There is no need to collect taxes when entering the city. Not only does it not collect taxes when entering the city, but even many merchants do not need to pay taxes. Many people call it a tax-free city or a city of freedom.
When Hu You entered the city gate, he was frightened by the prosperity here. Although he left here, he could hardly recognize the city in just half a year.
Although the ancient city of Langtian began to slowly emerge from the haze of war when Hu You left, it was definitely not as lively as it is now.
Look at the bustling crowds, the dazzling array of shops, the beautiful women shopping, and the children running around the streets in new clothes. It’s only October, and there are two months left before the Chinese New Year, but it’s even more lively than the Chinese New Year.
The dozen soldiers who came back with Hu You, including Huang Zhoumin, were all shocked by the ancient city. They had imagined the prosperity of Langtian, but the prosperity of Langtian was too much beyond their imagination.
Huang Zhoumin asked stupidly when he saw it, "Young Marshal, is this Langtian?"
Hu You took his eyes back from several girls who were dressed in bold and smiled and said, "This is Langtian, how do you feel?"
Huang Zhoumin said yearningly: "It's great, it's great. If I could stay here for a day, I would be willing to exchange my life."
The soldiers behind Huang Zhoumin also nodded heavily. They completely agreed with Huang Zhoumin's words, but what they thought was not to live for one day, but to live for a lifetime. With a wife, it would be even more perfect.
Hu You slapped Huang Zhoumin on the head and cursed with a smile: "What nonsense, how can you live for a day? This is the territory of our Immortal Bird Legion. All soldiers under my Immortal Birds have the chance to live here."
"real?"
All the soldiers blurted out, their eyes full of yearning.
Hu You nodded and said, "Of course. Lieutenant General Hongye is already formulating a rotating plan. Every unit will have the opportunity to station in every city. It's not just Langtian."
Langtian is one of the most famous cities in Tianfeng Continent. For ordinary people, some may not know who their king is, but he must know where Langtian is. If Emperor Taizu Rijkald had not been determined to do his own thing and excluded the will of the people, and had to establish the capital Longcheng, Langtian would not have fallen into the hands of Hu You.
Although later historians have been quarreling on various issues, the importance of Langtian is a common saying. Everyone agrees with the statement that without Langtian City, there would be no glory of the Immortal Legion. Some people even say that God chose Hu You, otherwise how could Hu You get Langtian City so easily
When Hu You left Langtian, Langtian was 89 miles in a radius and a population of nearly 2 million. At this time, Hu You felt that Langtian seemed smaller than before, and many of the original open spaces were already full of people.
Hu You thought to himself: "It seems that there are more residents. Do you want to renovate the old city or something?"
After walking along the way, the group came to the City Lord's Mansion. Langtian's City Lord's Mansion was once part of the palace of the Bauhinia Dynasty. It was not in the center of the city, but located in the south of Langtian, near the Jiuzhou River, the largest river in the empire.
There are four gates in the mansion, and each gate can station a troops of two thousand people. This is a design that other towns absolutely do not have. Because the city lord's mansion is huge, some people call it Xiaolangtian.
Hu You walked through the bustling streets and came to the south gate of the City Lord's Mansion. Because the south gate was close to Longcheng Road, the most prosperous commercial street in Langtian, its design was enough to accommodate more than a dozen riders in parallel. So even if this was outside the City Lord's Mansion, the road was full of traffic and endless streams. There were even many vendors calling for monopoly along the street. Someone once proposed to prohibit hawkers from selling at the south gate of the City Lord's Mansion, but Hu You did not adopt this opinion and only said, "The vendors also want to make a living." This matter was given up.
The vendors themselves are also very tactful. Although no one has ever said that they would set up seats for them, they still knew that they could not disturb the normal life and work of the City Lord's Mansion. They consciously occupied only one-fifth of the roadside to do business, and spared enough seats for the city Lord's Mansion. Moreover, when they closed the stalls every day, they would consciously clean the road surface. Even if it was not the place they had dirty, they would clean it. People who sell midnight snacks here agreed to never sell wine and try to prevent customers from making noises.
This is what you respect me, I respect you one foot.
Hu You has been troubled by how to deal with people's livelihood issues. In fact, he himself didn't know that what he did unintentionally made the people very grateful. The people's request is actually very simple. They don't need to be rich and noble, they just want a plain life. Although being a hawker is very hard and tiring, they are already very satisfied.
Although the guards on guard did not recognize who Hu You were, they looked at their eyes and swept them from time to time, and they couldn't help but stand on their bodies. He was regarded as a kind of pride as being able to stand guard at the city lord's mansion. You must know that this is the first post to guard and protect Hu You, the supreme leader of the Immortal Legion, and it is also the face of the legion, and it cannot be missed.
Hu You nodded in his heart secretly, yes, this is the soldier he wants. He turned to Huang Zhoumin and said, "Okay, stop watching, let's go in first. I'll give you a few days off, so you can come out and have fun."
Huang Zhoumin smiled with a blushing smile and said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, Young Marshal, I'm a little distracted." Everything here has a fatal attraction to him, making him unable to find North.
The guards on guard saw Hu You and the others walking towards this side, as if they wanted to enter the city lord's mansion. They hurried forward and stopped them politely, and said in a gentle tone: "Sorry, here is the city lord's mansion, you can't go in and out at will."
Hu You didn't know who trained these guards, but he was sure that the man spent a lot of effort. He was definitely a talented person and knew how to get along with the people.
Hu You thought for a moment and wanted to try to see how much these guards could do, so he deliberately pretended to be stupid: "If you can't enter, but I see that the scenery inside is very beautiful, I want to go in and take a look. It's not good for you to lock up the beautiful scenery like this."
The guard was not angry at Hu You's words, but laughed happily: "They are really good at seeing each other. It's not that I'm going to blow the scenery of our city lord's mansion is so beautiful that there is nothing to say. But we didn't lock up all the beautiful scenery."
The guard said, pointing to a place with green roofs in the distance, and continued, "Did you see that octagonal building? It is the imperial garden of the previous dynasty, and now it is a temple fair. The scenery there is also very good, and there are a lot of snacks. You can go there to have fun. This city lord's mansion is an office place, a military place. Without official documents, you cannot enter."
Most people will not mess around here after the guards explain so well. But Hu You just came to provoke others, so of course he wouldn't just leave.
Hu You curled his lips and said, "After talking for a long time, you just don't want us to enter."
Hu You said, and after eating the leopard's gall, he pointed at Huang Zhoumin and other dozen soldiers and said, "We have many people. If you don't let us in, we will hit you."
Huang Zhoumin was so sweaty. He thought to himself that this is your territory, otherwise you are looking for death. He was a person coming up and talked to you well. The one behind stood in two rows, with ten spears in each row, and you think they were dead. This is still what you see, and there must be more invisible.
The guard also saw that Hu You was joking, so he was still not angry and laughed: "Brother, don't play here. If you really want to fight, it's not me that you are a dozen friends, we brothers don't need to do anything."
The guard said, signaling Hu You to look back at the vendors and said, "Those friends who sell things will clean up you."
Hu You thought the guards were going to say something, but he didn't expect that the guards actually said that the vendors would come to help. He was a little confused. Could it be that after he left for half a year, Zhu Daneng and others had all the vendors?
This seems unlikely. Hu You was born in the Jianghu, and he could see at a glance that the vendors were all real, not pretending to be soldiers.
Hu You really didn't understand this time and asked: "Are those vendors also your people?"
The guard smiled proudly and said, "That's not the case, but if you really make a fuss here, they will help spontaneously."
Hu You asked: "Why, would you give them money?"
The guard shook his head and said, "Because they support our Young Marshal, the Young Marshal gave them the life they like, and they will not allow anyone to hurt the Young Marshal's safety."
When Hu You heard this, he suddenly wanted to cry. He never thought that he could have such a day as a gangster in the world. All his efforts will be rewarded, right?
After a little touch, Hu You put away his cynical smile, stood up straight, and said, "Very good, I just made a little joke with you just now. Haha. Okay, now I'm going in."
Hu You said, taking out a black iron immortal bird from his arms and put it on the guard's hand. He naturally patted the guard's shoulder and said, "Do it well in the future, I'll take good care of you."
Seeing Hu You take out the iron immortal bird, the guard was stunned. This is not an ordinary iron jewelry, it is an eavesdrop. Now on his shoulder is a lieutenant with an iron immortal bird standing on a belt. If one more immortal bird is added, he will be the lieutenant squad leader. This is equivalent to an official promotion.
In the Immortal Legion, only officers at the level of major general or above can be directly promoted to officers below major without passing through the Military Commission.
Who is this young man? How could he be promoted to his post directly? Yingda was stunned and his heart kept beating wildly. He had a premonition that his life would be changed by the small iron immortal bird in his hand.
Any immortal bird on the eaves, whether gold, silver, or black, is made of special materials. Like two soldier cards hanging on the neck, it is absolutely impossible to forge it. Yingda knew that this eaves were absolutely true.
General...I..."
Yingda felt that his whole head was flooded and could not even say a single word.
Huang Zhoumin, who was following Hu You, leaned up and whispered in Yingda's ear: "Boy, you are lucky."
Huang Zhoumin was also bad. He did not tell Yingda Hu You's identity, but exposed his epaulette, which made Yingda look at him and said, "We should be able to go in."
Yingda nodded instinctively, suddenly reflected and stretched out his hand and said, "No. Lieutenant Colonel, you must have a pass before you can enter."
The soldiers behind Huang Zhoumin were used to playing. When they saw Huang Zhoumin eating turtles, they all laughed. Huang Zhoumin hated him.
Hu You used to eat, live and dance with soldiers in the army. Yingda didn't know Hu You, and it was impossible for everyone not to know Hu You.
Yingda's stubbornness stopped Hu You and his group and wanted to verify their identity. One person rushed out of it and threw himself into Hu You's arms.
The one who rushed into Hu You's arms was Na Yue, one of the four maids. She was about to go out to buy things, but when she was still in the door, a soldier ran to Chi to tell her that the soldiers outside the door had stopped more than a dozen people, one of whom looked very much like the young coach.
When Na Yue heard this, her heart tightened. She had been following Hu You for some time and had a certain understanding of Hu You, knowing that he liked to play this trick the most. He heard this and ran to the gate immediately. With just a glance, she recognized Hu You.
Na Yue threw herself into Hu You's arms and refused to come out. She hugged Hu You tightly and cried with tears in her eyes: "Young Master, where have you been going in the past six months?"
Hu You laughed and said, "Where are you crying beautiful girls? Wow, they are crying so ugly. Look, they are all looking at you."
Na Yue looked up and saw that not only soldiers, but also the vendors on the street were paying attention to the movements here.
Na Yue's face turned red and she quickly dragged Hu You into the house. Na Yue was one of Hu You's four personal maids, and she had a high status in the mansion. The sect official Yingda did not dare to stop her this time. Hu You and his group followed Na Yue and all entered the mansion.
Yingda looked at Hu You and others who had already walked away and murmured: "Is he the legendary young marshal?"
Hu You now knows what it means to surround all the girls. He is like a poor grass thrown into the flowers. The sun is swirling around him, the moon is taken, the stars are stepped on, the sky is supported, the snow is supported, the red leaves are seen by everyone. Only Hu You can see it, and the four shadows of the dark night are also heard by the wind, the flowers are singing, the snow is crying, and the moon is singing.
A large group of beauties surrounded Hu You, which was full of gentleness and charm. Hongye is now a lieutenant general, so he should pay attention to some influence in front of his soldiers. The four maids didn't care about that many of them. They had long regarded themselves as Hu You's people, and they all squeezed into Hu You's arms. I don't know who it was, but he even pinched Hu You hard while the chaos.
After comforting for a while, it took a lot of time to finally coax the few of them. Hu You wiped his sweat, it was really tiring than fighting.
After venting for a while, the fourth maid recovered. Fu Chen pulled Ta Xing and kept yelling to make a big meal for Hu You. Na Yue also hurriedly went to clean up Hu You's room.
Hu You breathed a sigh of relief and glared at Wu Xuewen, who had been laughing beside him, and said, "You don't say that you can come up and help."
Wu Xuewen smiled bitterly and said, "Young Marshal, this is your blessing. If I dare to come up and pull anyone, they will not eat me raw."
Hu You laughed loudly. It felt so good to go home.
A celebration is indispensable. But this time, Hu You was not drunk like Dongwangcheng, so he couldn't sleep until he could not wake up tonight. There were still many things to do.
Of course, some people would arrange food and accommodation for Huang Zhoumin. Hu You washed away all the dust under the service of the four maids and came to Hongye's room.
In the room, there were only Hu You and Hong Ye. Hong Ye no longer had to hide anything. He let out a soft hum and threw himself into Hu You's arms. Hu You's poor clothes were still warm and fell off. What followed was Hong Ye's countless soft hums echoed in this room with red candles.
A storm-like impact lasted for more than an hour before it stopped. Hongye lay in Hu You's arms with satisfaction, with some hanging on the corner of his mouth. Only Xiao Hu You understood what it was and looked at Hu You with a water-like look.
Hu You stretched out his hand, pulled over the thin quilt, covered the spring scenery of Hongye, gently kissed Hongye, and said, "Thank you so hard for the past six months."
Hongye squeezed into Hu You's arms, found a more comfortable position for himself, and said, "I have nothing, I just miss you a little."
Hu You tightened her arms and hugged this woman who always gave silently. She always gave without regrets, but never asked for any reward. As long as Hu You needed it, she could do anything for Hu You without hesitation.
After intimate with Hongye for a while, Hu You played with the red cherry on Hongye's chest and asked, "Why didn't you see Zhu Daneng, Hou San and the others?"
At the banquet just now, Hu You not only did not see Hou San, but even the backbone of Rikelme and Link, who were one of the next level, were not there.
Hongye snorted softly, but did not open Hu You's naughty hand. Hu You liked this every time afterwards, and she also liked Hu You liked this.
Hongye said with a slight panting: "Hou San is in Baoning now, and Zhu Daneng is in Baiyun City. If you come back a few days later, Xuan Ri and Ximen Xue will also go to Baiyun City."
Hu You instantly realized that something must have been a big problem in Baiyun City, otherwise Zhu Daneng was already there, so why did the two female military advisors Xuan Ri and Ximen Xue still need to go there?
