Chapter 966: Returning to the city, the city gate welcomes you
Chapter 966: Returning to Fucheng, greeted by the city gate
"Who is the person behind this? Doesn't the third brother have any clues?"
Xin Qiji frowned and asked.
Shen Tang also rubbed his eyebrows, "Originally, I had some guesses.
However, I feel a little confused now! We can only wait for further news."
"Okay, second brother, since these people can only hide behind the scenes, even if they have some strength, they don't dare to attack head on.
Furthermore, in Chengdu Prefecture it is all our strength, so it’s fine if we don’t expose it. As long as it is exposed, we will have countless means.”
"You have worked hard all night, so go and rest for a while! I will set off back to Chengdu around noon! My second brother will handle matters here. If you have any news, just send me a message at any time."
"Don't worry, third brother!"
Xin Qiji nodded solemnly, "Although we killed a lot of those people, some prisoners will eventually be captured.
When the time comes, I will interrogate them one by one and I will be able to find out something! I want to see who is not afraid of death and dares to attack you!"
At this moment, it was just getting dark, and Shen Tang also fell asleep for a while!
"Your Excellency, Zhizhou Ying Deyuan has prepared a banquet and would like to invite you to the banquet!"
Outside the door, Shen Chou's voice came.
Shen Tang woke up, opened the door, and a maid entered the room! While washing, Shen Tang ordered, "Go and tell Ying Deyuan to bring the food. After we finish eating, we will leave directly!"
"Well... forget it, others don't have to come over, let Ying Deyuan come over!"
Hanzhou is adjacent to Chengdu, and this person is quite knowledgeable, so it wouldn't be a bad thing to get in touch with him!
By the time Shen Tang arrived at the main hall, the banquet had already been placed! Zhao Ling and others naturally did not show up and ate directly in the backyard.
Therefore, there were only two people in the hall, Ying Deyuan and Xin Qiji.
"Meet the adults!"
Seeing the two of them saluting, Shen Tang waved his hand and said, "Sit down, there are no outsiders, no need to be polite!"
Shen Tang took the main seat in the middle, and the two of them accompanied him on the left and right!
"Although I have not come to Hanzhou in person, I know a lot about your disaster relief efforts.
The people of Hanzhou can celebrate the New Year in peace, and it is a great contribution to Master Ying! However, there will still be a period of time that we need to continue to persevere! If necessary, please report it to me at any time!"
When Ying Deyuan heard this, he was all smiles! Although he was the prefect, Shen Tang was the prefect, so it sounded similar.
However, in fact, the rights of the two are completely different! Along the way, Shen Tang has won many prefects and prefectures.
Now, being able to hear Shen Tang's praise, he was naturally happy.
"Don't worry, sir! Although I am not as good as your Majesty, I still know how to work hard and love my people! Moreover, Hanzhou is adjacent to Chengdu Prefecture. If there is a problem in Hanzhou, it will also bring shame to you! Your Majesty's previous words will always be remembered in my heart. , I will never betray the trust of the imperial court, nor will I betray the guidance of my lord!"
"good!"
Shen Tang nodded, "Okay, let's stop chatting! After dinner, I will return to Chengdu Mansion, and you other Hanzhou officials will disappear. You just need to apologize to them... "
Ying Deyuan responded repeatedly! Because they had to rush on their way, few of them did not drink! After a while, several of them were full!
Nearly an hour later, the maid from the backyard came to report that Zhao Ling and others were ready.
After leaving the hall and Zhao Ling arrived, the group went directly out of the courtyard.
"Second brother, you and I will say goodbye here first!"
Shen Tang said to Xin Qiji.
There is only less than a hundred miles left to travel, so there is no need for Xin Qiji to see him off in person.
Moreover, tomorrow is the last day of the year, and he has to return to the military camp to take charge!
"Princess, take care, and the imperial envoy, take care!"
Xin Qiji cupped his hands and said goodbye.
"The general has arranged for a thousand Qingqi to escort the two of you. After arriving in Chengdu, they will return on their own!"
Shen Tang did not reject Xin Qiji's kindness and nodded directly! Zhao Ling on the side also said with a smile, "Second Brother Xin, take care. If you have time, Second Brother Xin can come to Chengdu Mansion. Brother Shen will be very happy!" "
Looking at the princess who said goodbye to him like a little daughter-in-law, Xin Qiji grinned! It seemed that his third brother would have a hard time escaping from the clutches of this princess.
However, speaking of the third brother's backyard, it is quite powerful...
With Shen Tang's explanation, no one else came to see him off except Ying Deyuan, the magistrate.
Shen Tang stepped forward with his horse, raised his hands and said, "Sir Ying, this line of work is very rewarding!"
Ying Deyuan hurriedly returned the gift, "My lord, take care of yourself all the way! If you have any instructions, all you need is a letter to come. I will only obey your orders!"
Shen Tang laughed loudly, and then he bowed his hands to everyone again, "Everyone, I'm going to go!"
After saying that, he clamped his legs on the war horse, and the war horse neighed lightly, and then headed towards the city gate.
From Hanzhou to the south, less than twenty miles is the Chengdu Prefecture! All you have to do is head southwest and you can arrive before sunset!
In the backyard of Chengdu Fufu Yamen, everyone is busy!
"Has sister Ling'er's room been tidied up?
By the way, the dinner must be arranged in advance. My husband and others will be hungry after running all the way! Prepare more hot water..."
Xin Qiji is a thoughtful person, so after arriving in Hanzhou, he directly sent someone to send the news about Shen Tang to Chengdu! The girls, who were looking forward to the return of their husbands, were naturally extremely happy! Therefore, when they got the news, they , and got busy.
The backyard was in chaos, and the yamen in front didn't stop either! Tian Guanhua and others knew the news that Shen Tang was coming back, and hurriedly notified all the officials in the yamen! Shen Tang and his party patrolled the five routes, not to mention the hard work, and even more It is the glory of the entire Chengdu Prefecture.
Therefore, due to emotions and reasons, they must greet each other in advance! When the news spreads, the people will also be honored! With Shen Tang's official reputation in Chengdu, many people also spread the news to each other and inquire about Time, prepare to greet Shen Tang at the city gate...
Before the You hour, the area near the north gate of Chengdu Prefecture was crowded with people! All the government officials, headed by Tian Guanhua, were waiting anxiously outside the city gate!
"Sister, can't we go to meet your husband?"
Wanyan Yue said to Liu Xiangling with some expectation.
"All the people in the city and the government officials have gone to the city gate. We are all women, so it will be inconvenient to go there! We will just wait for our husbands at home!"
Liu Xiangling naturally wanted to see Shen Tang as soon as possible, but she didn't want to cause any trouble because of herself and others.
After saying that, Liu Xiangling leaned close to Wanyan Yue's ear and said, "Don't worry, you little girl! My sister wants her husband to accompany you tonight?"
