Chapter 1452 Leaving the City Smoothly
Ta-ta-ta!
The carriage, which looked quite spacious and luxurious, headed towards the city gate with the envious and curious eyes of the surrounding people.
Such a large and luxurious carriage is definitely not something ordinary people can own. To own such a carriage, one must be rich or noble.
However, while the people around him were envious, the next thing they showed on their faces was expressions of gloating.
These days, they have seen many dignitaries being stopped at the city gate. In the past, these arrogant dignitaries never needed to stop for inspection when passing by the city gate. .
However, starting from the past few days, this situation has changed. General Sun Zhongcai, who newly took over the command of the army in the city, ordered that no matter who he is, he must accept the insistence when entering and exiting the city gate. Pedestrians must be searched and carriages must be searched. Looking through it, no one can be exempted, no matter whether the visitor is a wealthy businessman or a court minister, no one can be exempted.
Such a regulation was naturally resented by many people, but Sun Zhongcai insisted on executing this order on the grounds of protecting the safety of Linshui City. Even if the merchants and officials objected, he suppressed them all.
A few days have passed, and this rule is still being implemented, but there are not many people who oppose it. It is obvious that Sun Zhongcai relied on his own rights, or Qi Feng's trust, to make him persist.
But now, this carriage, which is quite luxurious and majestic in the eyes of everyone, will definitely not escape the fate of being searched.
The curious people around him had stopped and wanted to see who the owner of the carriage was, with a bit of a theater mentality in their hearts.
"Stop!"
Sure enough, when the carriage approached the city gate, a small group of soldiers came forward and stopped the carriage.
The carriage was not very fast. Thanks to the skillful skills of the driver, it stopped steadily.
"Everyone on the carriage, please get off. I want to go up and search!" The leader of the approaching team said loudly with a serious look on his face.
"etc!"
Seeing the city gate soldiers approaching, the coachman quickly stopped them and prevented them from getting close to the carriage.
"What do you want? Let everyone in the carriage get out!" the captain said angrily at the coachman.
"Another stupid guy."
"I'm afraid the owner of this carriage is going to suffer."
"It's been a few days, and there are still people who want to put on airs here."
When the people around them saw this scene, many of them were gloating about the misfortune. Seeing these dignitaries defeated, they felt inexplicably comfortable.
"My lord, I have a token. You can't search this carriage!" The coachman showed no signs of panic and took out a token from his arms in a leisurely manner.
"It doesn't matter if you have a token! General Sun has an order. Anyone who enters or exits the city gate must be inspected. Put away your token and let the people in the carriage get out immediately. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!" He was merciless and spoke in a very stiff tone.
The soldiers following the squad leader immediately dispersed and surrounded the carriage.
"Master, my token is different from other tokens. You'd better take a look first." The groom remained calm.
"You can't understand what I'm saying, can you?! No one has a token..."
Seeing that the groom was so uncooperative, the captain's face was full of ferocity. As he spoke, he was about to attack the groom. However, before he could say anything, he suddenly got stuck and froze there.
Why does this token look so familiar?
Isn't this General Sun's token?
"Master, can you see clearly?" the groom asked.
"Look... I've seen it clearly." said the squad leader. He took a few steps forward, approached the groom, and whispered: "I wonder what your mission is when you leave the city this time?"
"If you shouldn't ask, don't ask." The groom said calmly.
"Yes, yes." said the squad leader.
All the armies in Linshui City are now under the control of Sun Zhongcai. Although he did not immediately replace the generals of all the remaining armies in the country after taking power, he did not replace the generals in Linshui City. The replacement was made immediately. After all, this is the capital and there is no room for any mistakes.
Therefore, the people guarding the gates of Linshui City are all Sun Zhongcai's absolute confidants. He does not dare to publicize the fact that Peng Chuan has returned to Linshui City, but he also wants to capture Peng Chuan, the person guarding the city gates. , it must be his confidant.
As confidants, they naturally knew Sun Zhongcai's token, and they absolutely obeyed Sun Zhongcai's orders without asking for any reason.
"Get your people out of the way, we are leaving the city," the groom said.
"Yes." The squad leader responded respectfully, then turned around and shouted to the soldiers behind him: "Get out of the way, everyone!"
The soldiers behind the squad leader dispersed after hearing this.
The carriage started again, and slowly drove out of Linshui City under the confused eyes of the surrounding people.
"The owner of this carriage is so awesome!"
"Yes, this is the first time in the past few days that I have seen a carriage that can leave the city without being inspected."
"Tell me, who is the owner of this carriage? Is he a member of the royal family?"
"It can't be a member of the royal family. Have you forgotten that a carriage belonging to a member of the royal family was stopped here yesterday?"
"So, isn't the owner of this carriage more powerful than a member of the royal family?"
"Who is he?"
...
When the carriage slowly drove out of the city gate, the people near the city gate were talking a lot. After all, this was the first time they had seen this situation in the past few days.
"What are you doing? Let's break up, let's break up!" the team leader yelled at the crowd around him, his expression gloomy, not at all the same politeness as when he faced the groom just now.
The people around him immediately dispersed. Just because the captain was polite to the people on the carriage didn't mean he would be polite to them as well.
Outside the city, five or six kilometers away from Linshui City, the carriage that amazed the people at the city gate stopped. Beside the carriage, there were about ten people standing.
"I never thought that one day I, Peng Chuan, would need to use Sun Zhongcai's token to leave the city." A middle-aged man in the crowd said mockingly to himself.
This man was Peng Chuan, and the people next to him were his generals. Standing opposite him was Wu Fan, who had just come out of the palace.
"A man can bend and stretch." Wu Fan said with a smile: "Then Sun Zhongcai has been trying his best to catch you, but in the end, he helped you get out of the city. After he knows this, I wonder if he will go crazy. "
"Hahaha!" Peng Chuan and others laughed after hearing this. It was obvious that they were in a very good mood.
