The marching team shrank and dragged in the cold wind, walked through Zhongnan Mountain with difficulty, walked through Shangluo County, and turned southwest to Jinzhou.

Li Xuerou and the servants who were accompanying him sat in two hired Jianpeng donkey carts, wrapped in thick quilts in the car, and hugged together to keep warm.

I suffered a lot along the way, so I felt comfortable staying in Chang'an City.

"Who are you?" Seven days later, when you entered Jinzhou, the team was stopped by two men in cotton robes, and each had a long knife in their hands.

"We came from Chang'an and went to Xicheng County, Jinzhou to visit our relatives. Are you two Jinzhou troops?" The Huo Chang in front of the team replied.

"We are the Jinzhou Army Patrolman. May I ask about your official position name?" The Patrolman said politely.

"My wife is a relative of Fufenghou." Huo Chang replied.

The two patrolmen were stunned and looked at each other. One of them waved his hand, turned around and walked away together, and discussed with each other.

A moment later, one of them returned and said, "Can I come in and see you, Lord Fufenghou's relatives?"

"Please wait." said the Huo Chang, and asked someone to report, and after the person came back, he asked the patrol to pass by.

The patrol was led to the donkey cart, with the curtains open, and there were three beautiful women sitting inside.

He glanced at the patrol and quickly saluted respectfully: "I'm so humble to see my wife."

"Oh, you are the Jinzhou Army patrolman, can you see the teachings?" Li Xuerou asked in a trembling tone, but it was a cold battle.

"I am ordered to patrol the post, and I need to check military information. I dare to ask my wife for her reputation and military strength." The post asked respectfully.

"My name is Li Xuerou, the wife of Fufenghou. These military forces are subordinates who escort me." Li Xuerou replied.

The patrol nodded and said, "Disturbate Madam and take your leave."

Watching the patrol leave, Li Xuerou ordered the coachman to drop the curtain and continue on his way.

In the car, the beautiful maid on the left asked, "Why didn't the princess tell her true identity?"

"I told the troubles that the relatives of Fufeng Hou knew about it. They were displeased when they came out to welcome them. If they did not leave to welcome, they would look down on me nakedly. I must be tactful. My daughter-in-law regards herself as a visit to her parents-in-law and acts as a princess to make people disgusted." Li Xuerou explained softly.

......

The group, along the south of the Han River, finally arrived at the East Gate of Xicheng County.

The East City Gate belongs to the inner city gate. The expansion of Jinzhou City mainly goes south to west. The East City Gate has been repaired and bricked, making it more beautiful and elegant than before.

The donkey cart walked into the urn city, and Zhao Heng, the envoy guarding the East City Gate, greeted him in the urn city. He received the reward from the patrol and did not dare to neglect and rude. He had reported to the Governor of Jinzhou, but there was no reply.

"I am the guard of the lower city gate and pay homage to my wife." Zhao Heng saluted to the donkey chariot.

"General Zhao, can I enter the city?" Li Xuerou asked.

"When I return to my wife, the military envoy has instructed me to check the origin carefully when entering and leaving the city. Please tell me your origin and your subordinates should not neglect their duties because of Mrs. Fufeng Hou's reasons." Zhao Heng said respectfully.

Li Xuerou thought about it and asked the maid to take out the marriage imperial edict and the princess's golden seal.

Zhao Heng stepped forward and took it and looked closely. After looking at it, he was shocked and suddenly heard in his ears and asked, "Is Fufeng Hou still in Jinzhou?"

Zhao Heng was stunned and looked up at Li Xuerou, and replied: "How could Lord Fufeng Hou be in Jinzhou?"

Li Xuerou said calmly: "I met Fufeng Hou. I came to Jinzhou to pay my respects to my parents-in-law, and then went to Yuzhou, southern Sichuan to settle down."

Zhao Hengqing said respectfully: "You are Your Highness, please forgive me for being rude."

"I don't want to be proud of it here. I am just the wife of Fufeng Hou. Please don't tell me about the princess's matter." Li Xuerou said.

Zhao Heng hesitated for a moment, did not respond, and said respectfully: "Madam, you need something to serve your subordinates."

Li Xuerou was slightly stunned, and a few answers and Zhao Heng's respectful attitude made her know that the city gate guard was probably subordinate to Fufeng Hou.

She changed her mind and smiled and said, "Please ask General Zhao to send me to the county government."

Zhao Heng nodded and said, "I'm going to send someone to see you off."

Li Xuerou said again: "Since General Zhao has sent someone to see me off, my 100 guards will ask General Zhao to settle it, and it is equivalent to training in Jinzhou regiment."

Zhao Heng nodded and said, "Don't worry, madam, my subordinates will be placed."

Li Xuerou smiled and nodded and said, "Thank you."

Zhao Heng gave a silent military salute, moved away, and ordered the two fire soldiers to escort them.

When the donkey cart left, Zhao Heng sent someone to report to the county and prefecture yamen, asking his subordinates to place 100 guardians to live and eat, confiscate the guardian's spear, and prohibit the guardians from leaving the base without authorization.

Twenty soldiers from the city gate walked into two rows on both sides of the donkey cart.

Inside the car, Li Xuerou whispered: "Look at the soldiers outside, how is it different from our guards?"

"The soldiers outside are very mighty, and our guards are listless." The beautiful maid on the left answered.

"This is the huge difference between the military strength of the court and the military strength of the vassal states. Our 100 guards have too much difference in fighting spirit and military preparation. If we fight, the twenty people outside will be enough to defeat our 100 guards." Li Xuerou said softly.

"Well, what the princess said is reasonable. I took a look at it. There were many troops in the city gate wearing armor. Those who did not wear armor had bows and arrows in their hands. Our guards even had armor lieutenants, but they didn't have armor robes." said the beautiful maid.

"You must be respectful when you arrive at the county government, and you must be gentle to your servants." Li Xuerou instructed.

......

When they arrived at the county government office, Xue Rou and his servants got out of the car, looked at the gate of the county government office, and saw many people coming out.

The first one is a middle-aged man, a man is wearing a blue official uniform and a woman is wearing a pleated skirt.

Xue Rou hurriedly walked over, and without waiting for the person who came out to speak, she respectfully said: "My daughter-in-law Li Xuerou pays homage to her father-in-law and mother-in-law."

Wei Xuan and his wife were surprised. They received an urgent report. After the accident, they discussed it and decided to greet them according to the etiquette.

Even though the Wei family in Jinzhou became a vassal force, they were still subjects of the Tang Dynasty. In fact, they had known about the marriage, but they did not expect that the princess would come to Jinzhou.

"Your Highness the Princess is here, and the lower official is missing." Wei Xuan was surprised and still greeted him respectfully.

"My daughter-in-law Xue Rou is a filial daughter-in-law who comes to pay homage to her parents-in-law. Please don't make things difficult for the two elders." Li Xuerou responded respectfully, then knelt down the steps and kowtowed, and the servants behind her knelt down quickly.

"Ah, please get up quickly." The aunt hurriedly walked down and bent down to help her.

After helping Li Xuerou up, the aunt said pitifully: "It's cold outside, let's talk inside."

Li Xuerou nodded, reached out to support the aunt's left arm, and walked into the county government with close contact.

Wei Xuan followed behind and after entering the mansion, he went to the second hall. There was a brazier in the second hall, which was warm and pleasant.

Li Xuerou took the initiative to sit down and said, "My daughter-in-law left Chang'an and arrived in Hu County. She turned to Jinzhou to pay her respects to her parents-in-law. I don't know that her daughter-in-law came to Jinzhou in Chang'an."

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

"Oh, how did Your Highness know about Fufeng's origin?" Wei Xuan asked.

"My daughter-in-law is close to Lord Li Ji's wife and is also friendly with Jiu Niang. During the New Year, my daughter-in-law visited her aunt and happened to meet Fufeng Hou. She was also here. Her daughter-in-law admired Fufeng Hou's Battle in Hedong and repaired Quchi. She also had a deep affection for Fufeng Hou's humility and politeness. After learning that Li's family regretted the marriage, she took the liberty to ask her sister-in-law to make the decision. Her sister-in-law went to ask the Queen, and the Queen asked His Majesty the Emperor to give her marriage." Li Xuerou explained shyly.

Wei Xuan nodded, and Li Xuerou said again: "My daughter-in-law originally intended to marry a favorite husband, but she didn't want His Majesty the Emperor to give the title of Xuerou as the Princess of Jiangcheng. The daughter-in-law felt that it was inappropriate, so she asked the two elders not to care about the princess of her daughter-in-law's gift."

"Your Majesty gives you a title, how can you disrespect your subordinates?" Wei Xuan raised his hand and clasped his fists and said.

Li Xuerou smiled bitterly and whispered: "Adults should respect His Majesty the Emperor. Xuerou only wants to be the adult's daughter-in-law. In addition, her daughter-in-law is willing to marry, and she is really guilty of her sister Jiu Niang. In the future, Jiu Niang will marry Fufeng Hou, and her daughter-in-law is willing to respect Jiu Niang's wife."

Wei Xuan and his wife were surprised, and the aunt said softly: "The marriage between Fufeng and Li's house no longer exists, and the princess's honor must be the right wife."

"There is no way that Li's family regrets marriage, but it is not his Majesty the Emperor. Jiu Niang is willing. His daughter-in-law left Chang'an and said goodbye to Jiu Niang. He once told Jiu Niang that she respected her as the right wife, but his daughter-in-law did not want to help Fenghou abandon Jiu Niang." Li Xuerou said firmly.

Wei Xuan and his wife looked at each other, and Wei Xuan said gently: "Your Highness comes from afar, let's rest first."

The aunt nodded and stood up, and smiled and invited Li Xuerou to the back house together. Wei Xuan left the county government and went to the prefecture government government.

......

Wei Xuan reported to the second hall of the State Yamen and asked, "My father, what do you think?"

The Governor of Jinzhou smiled faintly and said, "We are ministers of the Tang Dynasty. Naturally, our marriage is not allowed to be rejected."

"Will there be any hidden danger?" Wei Xuan asked.

"The emperor's intention is nothing more than to appease and use it. Princess Jiangcheng himself is not a hidden danger. As for Fufeng's background, it will be leaked sooner or later, and the leakage will not have much impact now." said the Governor of Jinzhou.

Wei Xuan nodded, and the Governor of Jinzhou said again: "Since the princess is coming quietly, I don't have to obey the etiquette. Let's leave for a few days."

Wei Xuan nodded, the governor of Jinzhou thought about it, and said, "You can't be careless. You can stay in Jinzhou with the 100 guards who came with the princess, and also ask someone to escort the princess to Yuzhou to avoid the incidents in southern Sichuan and Jinzhou. They were spying too much by the court."

Wei Xuan nodded and said, "Is the imperial court's intention to appease Nanchuan, is it to restrain Fengxiang's army?"

The Governor of Jinzhou said: "There is that intention. If the court knows that Badong and Wuling belong to us, comfort is a precursor to the attack."

Wei Xuan was surprised when he heard this and said, "The court intends to send troops to attack us?"

The Governor of Jinzhou nodded and said, "We asked the Jiedushi to establish the Jiedushi, but the emperor refused to give the Jiedushi official position, which shows that the emperor was very afraid of us because we were the Wei clan of the great clan."

Wei Xuan said: "In the emperor's heart, we have greater hidden dangers than Li Maozhen."

The Governor of Jinzhou shook his head and said, "Not necessarily, the threat to Chang'an by Fengxiang Army is greater than that of us. We are weaker than Fengxiang Army. The emperor's choice is to deal with us first."

Wei Xuan's face changed slightly and he asked, "Does my father have a way to deal with it?"

"There is no other way except to stick to it. The last time I hoped the imperial coalition forces would attack southern Sichuan, but the Fengxiang army refused to order, leaving my plan empty." said the Governor of Jinzhou.
