Perhaps it was because last night's banquet ended so unhappy that the farewell atmosphere this morning was particularly strange.
The guys were very polite and sent him to the dock of Shunfeng Port. Governor Peter and his wife also led dozens of senior officials from Shunfeng Port to the scene and held a grand farewell ceremony, which gave him enough face.
But in Xiao Chen's imagination, everyone should have red eyes, sore noses, reluctant to leave, reluctant to say goodbye, and even burst into tears or choked with sobs.
Then, with his hearty laughter and valiant heroic demeanor, he said some touching words to everyone.
Finally, with firm steps and a decisive momentum that will never come back, we walked towards the rising sun, leaving a majestic silhouette for everyone.
That's perfect, isn't it?
But in fact, there is no such thing. Zhuge Xiaosheng, Dugulou, Lin Yue, Wei Yuntian, Yue Zhonglin and several generals have red eyes, but they obviously lack sleep, and some of them even couldn't help but yawn!
Chen Jisheng, Liu Congshu, Wen Chengxu, Liu Xiangqin, Madman, Liu Fuhai, Gongsun Ban and others were whispering to each other, not knowing what they were talking about?
Ye Baiqing and Peter and his wife were also chatting happily, and bursts of happy laughter broke out from time to time.
If you have anything to say, you can't talk about it after you send me off?
"Eh? Why don't you get on the boat?" Chen Jisheng turned around and saw Xiao Chen standing on the pier like a wooden pile in the wind. He couldn't help but be surprised, "Let's go quickly, everyone is still busy. After seeing you off, we will return
We have to have a meeting."
"Farewell!" When Xiao Chen heard this, his face turned dark and he turned around and left.
I spent the whole night typing up my manuscript and brewing my emotions all morning, but they were all blown away by the ruthlessness of the big guy!
I feel really depressed.
"Boss seems a little unhappy?" Ye Baiqing put up the awning with his hands and watched Xiao Chen board the boat from a distance, feeling that his back was full of anger.
"Don't worry about him, let's all go back. We have to hurry up and talk about business!" Chen Jisheng waved his hand and told everyone to hurry up. It's time to get in the car and get on the horse. Don't even look at it!
After Xiao Chen boarded the deck, he thought that as the boss, he couldn't be too stingy, so he had to wave to the big guys, but when he looked around, he saw that all the big guys were gone!
"These wolf-hearted things!" Finally, he couldn't help but lost his temper.
"Brother, who are you scolding?" Duan Ling'er on the side was so surprised, what's going on?
"I'm just scolding you. I see that you, a little bastard, are not trustworthy. I will definitely not take your brother and me seriously in the future!" Xiao Chen said.
"Hey, I didn't mess with you, why are you scolding me?" Duan Ling'er was innocently shot and was also very angry.
"Boss, it's cold outside. Come into the cabin quickly." Fu Yan came over to greet him.
"If you don't go in, I'll freeze to death!" Xiao Chen said loudly.
"Then let's go to Ang first." Tie Kunlun pulled Duan Ling'er down the deck, not forgetting to warn him thoughtfully, "Boss, please be careful, the wind is strong, don't blow you into the sea."
Do you care?
Xiao Chen said I would jump into the sea right now!
What do you think if the sea water is not too cold?
The north was strong at this season, so they had a smooth journey south. The freighter opened all the sails and successfully arrived at Haining Bay in just one day and one night.
Although there is also snow on the shore of Haining Bay, the temperature is more than ten degrees higher than that in Yanyun County. At least the sea breeze blows on your face and you don't feel the biting cold.
Xiao Chen got up early in the morning and dressed up neatly, because there must be someone coming to greet him, and the ceremony should be quite grand. As a governor, a general in the northern expedition, an imperial envoy, and a first-grade eunuch, he couldn't be disheveled, right?
That's not polite to say.
However, Xiao Chen thought too much.
The freighter has docked at the dock and the cables have been tied, but the team to greet him has not yet appeared. Could it be that he is late?
It can't be that you forgot, right?
It wasn't like there was no one to welcome him. The prefect of Haining Bay hurriedly boarded the ship with a dozen officials, big and small, and knelt down in front of Xiao Chen, saying they welcomed Mr. Xiao back...
That means I haven't forgotten.
"Does your Majesty have any wishes?" Xiao Chen waved his hand to let everyone stand down, wanting to ask the prefect what was going on?
"Replying to Mr. Xiao, the emperor's decree is not there, but two days ago Mr. Chen Wenqi of the Ministry of Revenue issued an order, saying that Mr. Xiao might arrive in the next few days, and ordered the official to greet him well. The official has been waiting every day since three days ago.
"Finally, when your Excellency returns safely, I will let go of my worries," said the prefect of Haining.
"Oh... That's all your fault." Xiao Chen instantly understood that Li Wanjiang and Chen Wenqi wanted to give me a blow!
I have such a distinguished status, but you only sent a small prefect of Haining to greet me. This is obviously just to slap me in the face!
Haha, that's a bit too stingy.
Thinking of this, he immediately replied with anger and joy, "I remember your surname... yes, yes, yes, I remember your name is Jiang Muxian. Isn't your brother Jiang Muxian a doctor in the Ministry of Industry? We are all familiar with each other. I remember you are also from the military, right? That
Someone, go back and pick some good horses for Mu Xian!"
"Oh, how embarrassing is this... Then I will thank Mr. Xiao for the reward!" Jiang Muxian smiled happily.
After asking Xiao Chen to get off the boat, he looked around and said quietly, "Master Xiao, it seems that the emperor is a little annoyed with you. I heard that it was because you came back too late... That's why I didn't let you come to Haining Bay to pick you up.
I heard from my brother that Master Ma Wuming was actually ready to come to greet him in person, but then there was something wrong, so he didn’t come."
"Well, thank you Brother Mu Xian for reminding me." Xiao Chen said in his heart, Mu Xian, you are wrong, the emperor is not angry with me, but hates me.
"But Mr. Xiao, you are the most trusted minister beside the emperor, and you have made such great contributions. The emperor will definitely not blame you seriously. The people below us often say that this time, Mr. Xiao, you will be granted the title of Marquis.
! If this is the case, how can you be honored even if you are a lower-ranking official?" Jiang Muxian said.
"Hahaha, I'll lend you some good words." Xiao Chen looked up to the sky and laughed.
He left Tie Kunlun and Fu Yan and a group of Flying Wing Guard brothers to stay at the port to watch the unloading. He only took Xiao Ye and Duan Linger to ride back to Beijing.
Don't you, Li Wanjiang, want to suppress my prestige, Xiao Chen? Then I will give you a simple and easy way.
The horses galloped all the way and arrived at Fengyang City at dusk.
The soldiers guarding the city didn't know Xiao Chen at all, so they ordered the three of them to dismount and undergo inspection!
"Where did he come from?" The leader looked at Xiao Chen and saw that he was wearing a leather robe, with a dark red face, a precious-looking sword hanging on his waist, and riding a blood-red horse.
BMW feels neither civilian nor commercial, neither official nor military, neither fish nor fowl, so it is quite suspicious.
Why does it feel like he is from Northern Xinjiang? Could he be some kind of spy?
"Yanyun County." Xiao Chen said coldly.
As expected.
"Yanyun County?" Baihu frowned, "Are they merchants?"
"No." Xiao Chen was a little impatient.
"What's your name and what do you do?" Baihuxin said, "What the hell, are you still unhappy after asking you a few words?"
