Chapter 204: Returning with a full load
The re-audit in Danzhou is not destined to go well.
Duanmu Xu and they are concerned about this, and it will be more difficult to be sloppy again. In addition, although Xiao Zhanyuan promised to check the accounts again, after his son Xiao Tie recovered, he was naturally angry when he heard that he was almost thrown on the tide viewing platform near the sea.
When he checked the accounts before, Xiao Tie couldn't hold it back, if Xiao Zhanyuan hadn't held it down, he would have taken someone to surround Princess Subai and their residence.
And Wu Zhengrong checked the accounts again, and the fire in the heart of the son of the governor, who has always been pampered, can no longer be hidden. He took the men and horses of the patrol camp and surrounded the place where Duanmu Xu and them were.
The first in front of them, of course, was the Flying Feather Guard.
There weren't many of them, but each one stood straight, in front of them.
Although Xiao Tie led people to surround the mansion where Duanmuxu and his party were, he did not rush in, but instead asked the head of the patrol camp to spread the word inside, claiming that there were gangsters in the city recently, and in order to ensure the safety of the princess and his party, he sent people to protect him.
This set of rhetoric is naturally unconvincing, but Duanmu Xu and they want to see what the hell this Xiao family father and son are going to do. Send someone to surround them, and there must be some follow-up action.
But blatantly wanting to do something to Luo Jia, Duanmu Xu thought that this surnamed Xiao would not dare to be so bold and stupid.
One side did not dare to attack, and the other side waited to watch the play. Nothing would have happened.
But something happened.
Perhaps there was no movement around this side, but a soldier from the patrol camp released an arrow at the outer wall of the mansion. He originally wanted to shoot the flying bird, but he didn't think about this arrow, but the bird didn't shoot, but it alarmed the flying feather guard inside the wall. A flying feather guard came to the wall and directly fired arrows to fight back.
In the absence of an order from either side, the firing began one mile and one away.
Xiao Tie was a little panicked when he heard that those patrol camps were actually fighting with Fei Yuwei. Before, it was nothing more than relying on the fact that this was Danzhou City, and then using some excuses to get back some face for himself, and he was also angry. If he really wanted him to take people to attack the princess's residence, he would not dare. This is tantamount to rebellion. And the fate of the rebellion, the fate of Zhao Jiancheng who just passed, and the fate of the Shi family, the Xiao family still remembers it vividly.
Therefore, Xiao Tie was about to rush to stop it, but found that there were more people outside the mansion where the princess was.
In the city of Danzhou, when did there be such a person again.
The men and horses of the patrol camp stopped decisively when they found out that some more soldiers and horses were coming.
I just hit inexplicably, and when I really stopped, I realized that there were many things. So when these strange soldiers and horses arrived, they obediently gave way to the way.
So when Xiao Tie arrived, his patrol camp had already obediently retreated to the side.
Duanmuxu and they walked out of the mansion, and there was a person standing at the gate, with a big head, and they hadn't seen him for a long time.
It was Pan Zihan who rushed over from the Pingnan Army garrison, the judge of the Pingnan Army at this time. It should have learned the lesson of the last time in Bingzhou City, and this time he brought 500 people to Danzhou City.
When Pan Zihan entered Danzhou City and came to the place where Duanmu Luojia and them were, he saw these patrol camps and naturally understood the meaning.
When he was about to give the order to make a move, the people who patrolled the camp retreated, so that Pan Zihan lost the opportunity to be majestic in front of them.
Pan Zihan came to Danzhou City with his men.
Xiao Zhanyuan couldn't sit still anymore.
If there is a conflict, then it will be impossible to maneuver.
So, Xiao Zhanyuan also hurried to the mansion where Duanmu Xu and the others were.
Those who had avoided it before, who had not confronted each other before, were brought together by an arrow from the patrol camp.
What needs to be faced has to be faced.
Looking at Princess Subai's face sinking like water, as well as the expressions of those Fei Yuwei, as well as Pan Zihan at this time, and of course these accompanying people, Xiao Zhanyuan thought about it in his heart, and let go of some of his previous grievances, it seems that emotion is always wrong.
Xiao Zhanyuan followed Pan Zihan and the others into this mansion.
The patrol camps outside were waiting in the distance, while the soldiers and horses brought by Fei Yuwei and Pan Zihan were guarding the gate and around.
Everyone knows it's going on.
In the end, the men and horses of the patrol camp were withdrawn in ashes. and Xiao Zhanyuan returned to the governor's yamen with a gloomy face.
Duanmuxu and the others lingered in this mansion for a day, and then left, still going in the direction of Yangzhou City.
And Wu Zhengrong, the head of the household, happily returned to Xianjing with a few retinues. He didn't expect that Governor Xiao would change his previous attitude, and the political envoy of Hengbei cooperated well, and admitted that there were several omissions in the previous accounts. In this way, he, the head of the household, can be regarded as earning credit this time. In Hengnan, the eldest princess made up money and food, and when she arrived in Hengbei, so did Governor Xiao.
Wu Zhengrong happily went north.
Duanmuxu and the others returned to Yangzhou City again, but this time there was more Pan Zihan.
They are all acquaintances, so they naturally chat happily.
But soon, Pan Zihan left in a hurry. This time, I came just to see how the third sister was, and since she was optimistic, she was busy with her own military affairs. Just arrived in this Pingnan Army, and the things that should be done are enough for Pan Zihan, a big head, to worry about.
It is considered to have settled this audit and write-off, but the so-called sinking silver has not yet been settled. Duanmuxu: They still have a reason not to return to Beijing for the time being.
If you don't return to Beijing, you will naturally continue to look for that Shen Yin.
However, where is the immersion silver so easy to find. Before, Duanmu Xu followed the Demon Sect Sect Master Chu Ba, and the other party was just looking for a successor from Shen Yin. As for the real Shen Yin, Chu Ba didn't care about it at this time, but said that some of the gold and silver in the sect were indeed loaded on wooden boats at the beginning, but after a series of battles, it had long been destroyed in the Henghe. As for where Shen was, Chu Ba didn't bother to track it down, so no one knew.
Under such circumstances, Duanmu Xu and the others continued to live a happy life as rich young people in Yangzhou City.
However, a piece of news soon spread to Yangzhou City, attracting their attention.
In a place about a day's journey from Yangzhou City, an inexplicable thing happened.
When Duanmu Xu heard about it, he moved his mind to take a look.
This time, Pan Zhiyan and the others also followed, especially Fan Lu wanted to go to see such a strange place.
Their destination was originally a nameless valley, now known as Happy Valley, but some also call it the Valley of Heavenly Punishment.
When Duanmuxu and the others arrived, many people had already gathered outside this deep valley, and people were talking about the strange changes in this valley.
This deep valley was originally unremarkable, but about a month ago, a woodcutter entered the valley, originally exhausted from the trek all the way to the mountain, who knew that in this deep valley in a mountain spring, after drinking a few sips of spring water, I felt exhausted, and felt physically and mentally happy.
So, after collecting firewood every day, he had to go to this mountain spring to drink a few sips of water, and he felt very happy every time, so his worries were eliminated. He also tried to pour some mountain spring water back, but it seemed that drinking it at home did not have this miraculous effect.
After the woodcutter's adventure was known to the neighbors, everyone also went to this mountain spring to drink this magical mountain spring water, and cheerful laughter resounded in this valley every time. As a result, this originally nameless deep valley was called Happy Valley by everyone.
I don't know if it's joy and sadness, or what's going on.
When more people came to this Happy Valley, some people went to drink the mountain spring water again, but suddenly fainted and then disappeared.
From a valley that makes people laugh, it has become poisonous water that dies after drinking mountain spring water.
When Duanmuxu and the others arrived, there were also bold people, people who had drunk this mountain spring water, and they couldn't help but drink the mountain spring water again, and they still felt very happy. As a result, people felt that those who drank this mountain spring water and died must have suffered a curse, so some people called it Heavenly Punishment Valley again.
