"Extraordinary person?" Li Shunchen hurriedly said, "May I ask who you are referring to?
"When the imperial tutor Gu Shunzhang traveled to Goryeo, he met an extraordinary person. Legend has it that this person is knowledgeable and knows 500 years in the past and future. Even Gu Shunzhang, who has read thousands of books, could not gain any advantage in front of him. "
Lin Wanrong looked at him with a smile, "Has General Li heard of this person?"
Li Shunchen thought for a long time and shook his head helplessly, "There is such a talent in Goryeo? Please forgive me, General Li. I have never heard of this person. "
Gu Shunzhang once said that the extraordinary person was low-key and even met him through a curtain. It was understandable that Li Shunchen had not heard of this person. He could ask around when he reached Hancheng Prefecture.
Lin Wanrong nodded silently, "Then let me ask another person. There is a little palace maid called Xu Changjin in the palace of Goryeo. Has General Li heard of her?"
Li Shunchen's expression changed. He hesitated for a long time before asking carefully, "Are you talking about Doctor Xu?"
"Yes, yes, that's her. She also knows how to make medicinal cuisine!" Lin Wanrong was overjoyed, "Does General Li know where to find this Miss Xu?"
General Li sighed, "Doctor Xu is kind and has excellent medical skills. In this war against the Japanese, she risked her life to go deep into the frontline and saved many wounded people. Goryeo is extremely grateful to her! If you want to find her, you can only go to Hancheng Prefecture! "
This was not unexpected. Lin Wanrong grunted and made a circle on his stomach with his hands, "General Li, when you saw this Doctor Xu last time, was there anything special about her?"
Li Shunchen looked at him in confusion, "What do you mean by special?"
Grand Mistress stood at the side. Lin Wanrong was too embarrassed to say too much and could only make a few more gestures on his stomach. He winked at Li Shunchen.
Xiao Yuruo could not help but snort when she saw his hesitant expression. She smiled and said, "What he means is … This Miss Xu. Is she pregnant? "
"Oh …" Li Shunchen came to a sudden realization and carefully recalled. He shook his head slowly, "The battle was in full swing at that time. More and more people were being sent in for treatment. I only took a few glances at Doctor Xu from afar. As for whether or not she is pregnant, I do not know! Besides … I've never heard of Doctor Xu getting married! "
Can't I get pregnant if I'm not married? The Grand Mistress rolled her eyes at her husband with a faint smile.
Lin Wanrong chuckled dryly, his face a little hot. He had lived for two lifetimes, and Xu Zhangjin was the only one who had been raped.
Li Shunchen looked at him and hesitated. He whispered, "May I ask if you are inquiring about Doctor Xu? Are you going to see her? "
There was no need to deny this. Lin Wanrong nodded and said, "General Li. If I'm not wrong, Miss Xu's status in Goryeo is very high. I'm afraid she's not as simple as a palace maid! "
Li Shunchen's expression changed drastically. He lowered his head and said, "What are you talking about? Shunchen doesn't understand! "
Lin Wanrong smiled and patted his shoulder, "Goryeo is such a big place, what can be hidden from others? There are many people in Goryeo who know the true identity of Doctor Xu. I'm the commander of the loyal army. Don't tell me I don't even have this ability! "
His face was calm. His eyes were unfathomable, as if he had already seen through everything.
Li Shunchen looked at him in horror. After a long time, he helplessly lowered his head, "This is a secret history of Goryeo. Since you already know. I hope you won't spread it! You are right, Doctor Xu is indeed the direct descendant of the King of Goryeo! "
"Oh?" Although he had a premonition, he heard it from Li Shunchen's mouth. He still couldn't help but be surprised.
"Doctor Xu's mother was the youngest lady in the palace. She was gentle, generous, virtuous and beautiful. She lived with the King all day long. Gradually, she developed feelings for him. Later, the Queen found out about this. The Queen was furious. She took the opportunity when the King was out on patrol to drive the pregnant lady out of the palace and ordered people to kill her. At the same time, she lied to the King that the lady had fallen into the river and died. "
The Grand Mistress's expression tightened. She hurriedly said, "What happened after that? What happened after that? "
Li Shunchen shook his head and sighed, "Fortunately, there were righteous people who came to the rescue. The Queen's plan didn't succeed. However, the lady had to hide in the mountains. The King had sent people to look for her for many years but to no avail. The lady missed her so much that she fell ill. Two years after she gave birth to Doctor Xu. She died of depression, leaving behind a little girl who wasn't even three years old. "
He didn't expect Sister Chang Jin to have such a tragic life. Lin Wanrong silently sighed, "Then how did this story get out?"
"It was the will of the heavens. Doctor Xu was naturally intelligent. At the age of four, she could read books, memorize poems and identify herbs. She was famous far and wide. This matter reached the ears of the lady in charge of selecting little palace maids. She personally came to check and confirm that there was no mistake. Doctor Xu was selected as a little palace maid and entered the palace of Goryeo. "
"Doctor Xu was like her mother. Beautiful, gentle, diligent and eager to learn. Her knowledge and appearance were the most outstanding among all the little palace maids. Finally, the will of the heavens came. In the tenth year of her entering the palace, the King occasionally patrolled the back garden and saw her. She looked exactly the same as the deceased lady. The King was shocked and asked her about it. He personally went to her hometown and finally saw the grave of the lady and the token of their love! Only now did His Majesty understand that Doctor Xu was his own flesh and blood, and the truth behind the death of the Shang Gong Niang-niang was finally revealed! "
"Miss Xu's life was so rough!" Xiao Yuruo shook her head and sighed, "She was supposed to be the princess of Goryeo. But why didn't I see her name in the register of relatives?"
"This is why the people of Goryeo revere Doctor Xu so much!" Li Shunchen raised his head and said, "After His Majesty found out the truth, he felt extremely guilty and doted on this daughter who had been wandering since she was a child. His love for her surpassed that of all his other children. He tried many times to have Doctor Xu enter the Imperial Relative Household as a Princess, but she refused!"
"Refused?" This time, even Lin Wanrong couldn't help but be surprised, "Why?"
"Palace Maid Xu said that she and the deceased lady came from the common people. She would never forget that it was the people of Goryeo who saved her and raised her. She only wanted to be a common person and dedicate everything she had learned to the people of Goryeo. She was the daughter of Goryeo! "
So that's why! No wonder when Xu Zhangjin asked for help in China. To save Goryeo, she was willing to sacrifice anything! This woman's character was indeed very strong!
And what Gu Shunzhang said in the past. The marriage between China and Goryeo was also referring to Xu Zhangjin! No wonder that old man kept winking at me and told me not to regret it! Lin Wanrong smiled bitterly and was speechless. His view of Xu Zhangjin also changed greatly.
From Li Shunchen's words, he learned that the little palace maid was safe and sound. He was finally relieved and actually looked forward to reaching Hancheng Prefecture soon.
The next morning, they set off from Gwangzhou to the north, passing through Jeonzhou, Qingzhou, Tianan and several other counties to Hancheng Prefecture.
After the first war, Goryeo lost many able-bodied men. Along the way, all the counties were destitute and poor. Grand Mistress originally wanted to sell some cloth and perfume from the Xiao Family, but she had to put it aside when she saw the situation.
It was only after they passed Tian An and approached Shui Yuan that the situation started to improve. The population gradually became denser and the city walls became taller. The bustling market also increased, faintly showing signs of prosperity.
They temporarily stopped at Shuiyuan. Xiao Yuruo took out a portion of the goods and distributed them in the busy market for free.
Goryeo after the war. The materials were extremely scarce. The fine silk cloth that the Xiao Family had brought was undoubtedly the most luxurious item. Moreover, it was distributed for free! This time, the whole Suiyuan was in an uproar. The market was densely packed with people. It was so crowded that not even a needle could get through.
The effect of this advertisement was huge. Many people did not receive the free goods. But he would forever remember the two words "Xiao Ji".
Extraordinary times have extraordinary methods. This was the idea that Eldest Miss came up with. Even Lin Wanrong couldn't help but give him a thumbs up.
Suwon is the capital of Gyeonggi Province. It was less than a hundred miles away from Incheon Harbor and Seoul Prefecture.
Everyone hurried on their way. Before noon, they were only 20 miles away from Han Cheng Prefecture.
Lin Wanrong and Shi Changsheng were riding at the very front, leisurely enjoying the scenery around Han Cheng Prefecture. Suddenly, they heard several 'boom', 'boom', 'boom', and a huge army suddenly appeared in front of them. The black mass of people was like a swarm of ants, surging towards them.
"What's going on?" Lin Wanrong was shocked.
Li Shunchen, who was following behind him, looked up and said in surprise, "Reporting to my Lord, it is the King of Goryeo who has led hundreds of officials out of the city to personally welcome you!"
Looking at the front, there were two groups of beautiful Goryeo palace maids and a group of mighty soldiers. Following closely behind were hundreds of Goryeo officials in red and blue robes. In the middle of the formation of officials, there was a yellow carriage pulled by eight large horses. It should be the King of Goryeo's carriage.
Behind them, thousands of people held flowers and ribbons in their hands, cheering and rushing over. They were like the rising tide of the sea, with no end in sight.
"Wow, so many people are here to welcome us!" Shi Changsheng was so shocked that he stuck out his tongue.
Lin Wanrong smiled and said, "What's the use of just looking at the number of people? We, Da Hua, can form ten thousand of these formations! "
As they chatted, the welcoming crowd stopped in front of them. The palace maids and guards quickly made way for them. The Goryeo officials surrounded the carriage and rushed forward.
The curtains were lifted and an old man in his fifties or sixties walked out quickly. He wore a golden silk hairpin and a yellow robe. He asked earnestly, "May I ask if you are Marshal Lin of the Great Hua's Brave and Loyal Army?"
His Chinese was very stiff. Marshal Lin had traveled extensively and could even understand the accent of the Turks, let alone Goryeo!
"Yes, yes!" Lin Wanrong dismounted and cupped his fists with a smile. "Is this the King of Goryeo? Your Majesty, I am not worthy of your welcome! "
The King of Goryeo was Xu Zhangjin's biological father. Thinking about his relationship with the little palace maid, he felt a little weird and was not used to it!
"Marshal is too courteous!" The King of Gaoli stepped forward and supported his shoulders personally. She said earnestly, "I have long heard that Marshal Lin is a young and talented man. With a few thousand men, you broke through the Turkic Royal Court and captured the Hu Khan alive. You have struck fear into the hearts of the Turks. The China's Loyal Army under your command is also good at fighting and has contributed greatly to Goryeo. Today, Marshal Lin has come to Goryeo personally. It is a great honor for our people! "
Looking at the King of Goryeo from a close distance, although his face was ruddy and he was smiling, the wrinkles on his forehead were deep. It seems like he has been worrying a lot recently!
Lin Wanrong knew what he was thinking and laughed, "Your Majesty, you are too kind! What young heroes, how the Turks would tremble in fear at the sound of their names? They're all exaggerations. I'm the worst person at war. Those victories were won by my brothers, and I was just there to make up the numbers! "
This person was quite humble and cautious, quite different from the rumors! The King of Goryeo smiled and nodded. The humble man said, "However, it is our duty to help Goryeo fight against the Turks. Two systems, Goryeo's border is our border. Your land is also my land! We are a family, so there is no need to be so polite. Haha! "
The King of Goryeo's muscles twitched and his smile stiffened. He said awkwardly, "Yes, yes. Thank you, China!"
"Look, Your Majesty is being too courteous again?" Lin Wanrong pulled him back and said mysteriously, "To be honest, before I came here, the Emperor mentioned you! He said that if you are free, please invite the King of Goryeo to the capital. It has been many years since we last met and I miss him! You see, His Majesty is still thinking about you! "
He squinted his eyes and said with a smile, implying that Goryeo was a fence-sitter. The King of Goryeo understood what he meant.
"Yes, yes." The King of Goryeo awkwardly cupped his fists. "Marshal Lin, please tell the Emperor that I will go to the capital to meet the Emperor next spring!"
