Chapter 1138: The mighty team, see off outside the city
Chapter 1138: A mighty procession, seeing off outside the city
Early the next morning, outside the main clan of Jiazong tribe, a mighty team began to line up in order!
First came the ceremonial guards and guards who followed Li Duo and others, then came Xin Qiji's two thousand soldiers and horses and other accompanying people, and finally Murong Wu personally led five hundred elite warriors from the clan, and there were also some servants and maids. Follow along!
And Murong Cangbai and other major members of the Jiazong tribe are also here to prepare to see each other off in Shen Tang!
"Clan Chief Murong!"
In the distance, the same ceremonial guard came slowly. Murong Cangbai stepped forward to greet it. It was Li Shantang and Gao Changguo who led the crowd.
"Master Shen Tang has not come out yet?"
Li Shantang asked.
If Shen Tang stays in Shanchan Mansion for one more day, he will be anxious. In addition, Shen Tang is simply the biggest unrest factor. How long has it been since he came and two tribes have been destroyed? After a few days, he, the master of Shanchan Mansion, might not be able to sit still! Now that he can finally be sent away, Li Shantang breathed a sigh of relief.
"Should be arriving soon!"
Murong Cangbai said.
Then, everyone waited quietly!
After waiting for nearly two quarters of an hour, Shen Tang, accompanied by Shen Chou and Lei Zheng, appeared in everyone's sight!
"Greetings, my lord!"
"Meet the high priest!"
Everyone present quickly saluted!
"Thank you for waiting. If you are ready, let's set off!"
Shen Tang said calmly.
Then, a group of people started to move towards the west gate of Shanchan Mansion! Not long after, the huge team left the city gate, and Li Shantang and Murong Cangbai stopped.
"Master Shen, I still want to stay in Shanchan Mansion and it is not suitable to send you far away. I will lead you to the Imperial Capital to meet His Majesty, Master Gao!"
Li Shantang said with some respect.
"No problem!"
Shen Tang smiled and said, "When I return, if I have time, I will definitely come to your Shanchan Mansion to stay again!"
Hearing these words, Li Shantang's face couldn't help but twitch a few times! It's best not to let this disaster star come.
"Lord Patriarch, please stay too!"
Shen Tang said to Murong Cangbai.
Murong Cangbai nodded, "The priest has gone all the way. If anything happens, he can send news back at any time! Although the Jiazong tribe is not powerful, there are hundreds of thousands of tribesmen and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and they can die for the high priest at any time! "
"Murong Wu, you lead your troops to protect the high priest. If anything happens to the high priest, you don't have to return to your clan."
"Clan leader, don't worry!"
Murong Wu nodded vigorously.
Then, Shen Tang went ahead to beat the horse, and the huge team followed him!
After the team disappeared from everyone's sight, Li Shantang turned to Murong Cangbai and smiled, "Clan Murong, I have newly arrived some famous tea from the Song Dynasty, why don't you come to my house and have two cups? "
Murong Cangbai smiled and said, "In this case, let me, an old guy, get some glory from you!"
Although both of them knew very well that they were almost in opposition to each other, as long as Shen Tang and Dali didn't completely fall out, they needed to maintain harmony.
Otherwise, it will be of no benefit to either party.
The team led by Shen Tang was not moving very fast. Fortunately, Xin Qiji had many horses and allocated some of them to Li Duo and others. Otherwise, the speed would have been even slower!
Behind Murong Wu, Murong Yu and Long Li'er pretended to be maids and mingled with the team!
"Oh, it's so boring! We're all on the road, and we have to talk quietly!"
Murong Yu whispered to Long Li'er.
Shen Tang and others were fine, but they were surrounded by followers and maids from the Jiazong tribe. In such a team, how could these people dare to talk casually?
"I don't know how long it will take to get to the emperor!"
"Sister, be quiet. Don't let me find you. We have just left Shanchan Mansion. If we are discovered, it will not be good if we are sent back..."
Hearing Long Li'er's words, Murong Yu also nodded quickly and blocked his mouth!
Along the way, there was the Dali envoy from Gaochang State to guide the way, so there was no obstacle. Moreover, this road to the west was basically the hinterland of Dali, and the inns were extremely dense! At noon, a group of people were directly in the inn. After eating some and resting for a while, we set off again to the west.
By the time sunset came, the group had traveled about seventy or eighty miles!
After a night of silence, everyone stopped and rested for the night not far from a tribe called Aningbu!
We moved forward again the next day, and at sunset on the second day, everyone arrived at Ludian! This Ludian is already about two hundred miles away from Shanchan Mansion. If we go further, we will leave the boundary of Shanchan Mansion. , enter the realm of Weichu Mansion! After passing Weichu Mansion, you will enter the realm of the imperial capital of Dali.
Everyone stopped at the inn again, went to rest and prepare for meals!
Long Li'er, on the other hand, took Murong Yu directly to the back kitchen of the inn, "Sister Yu, please help me put away these dishes, let's cook quickly!"
"My brother's appetite has been bad for the past two days. Look, when we stopped at noon, we didn't even take a few bites! What if we continue to be hungry like this!"
Long Li'er said with a bit of anxiety and distress.
What Long Li'er said is true. People have habits. She was served by two little girls in Jiazong tribe for several days. Especially Long Li'er's craftsmanship made Shen Tang full of praise. These roadside The craftsmanship of the cooks at the inn and the maids and servants they brought were vastly different from Long Lier's.
It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality! Being used to the delicious and exquisite side dishes made by Long Lier, Shen Tang is indeed a little bit hard to stomach these ordinary foods.
"Humph, now you know how distressed you are?"
Murong Yu said teasingly, "Look, you can just be your brother-in-law's little cook for the rest of your life!"
Long Li'er did not refute, but nodded slightly, "If I can be my brother's cook for the rest of my life, Li'er will naturally be willing!"
When Murong Yu heard this, he shook his head speechlessly, "You, I really don't know what to say about you! You even said that you should take down your brother-in-law. I think you have been taken down by your brother-in-law a long time ago."
With that said, she hurried forward to help. Speaking of which, even though it only lasted two days, she could no longer bear Long Li'er's craftsmanship.
Shen Tang did not eat with everyone, but was in the room, waiting for his entourage to bring it over.
It's not that Shen Tang wanted to do anything special, but it was too troublesome for these people to salute one by one when eating together! Simply, Shen Tang ate alone in the room, which saved a lot of things.
Moreover, as an envoy, his status is even more lofty, and others don't have any objections to this.
