Chapter 363

Li Wen first settled Zhuang Fudi, and then discussed in depth with Zhuang Fudi on the other hand, and sent people to clean the newly built platform, clean up the weeds that grew in the cracks of the green bricks of the platform during this time, and at the same time repair the damaged green brick pavement these days.

Busy time always passed quickly, and by the time Li Wen had ordered his men to clean the newly built platform for parking steam locomotives, the time had already turned to night. A large fireball of sunset finally rolled down behind the mountain, and the sunset also collected the last of her afterglow, and the sky and earth darkened. Li Wen and Zhuang Fudi came to inspect the cleaning results of this platform. Seeing that there were no weeds on the platform, and the green bricks were neatly arranged on the ground, Li Wen nodded with satisfaction. Then he ordered the workers to be paid for the hard work of the day, and they were sent away. Li Wen walked around the platform, always feeling that something was missing, but he didn't find anything wrong, so he turned around and asked Zhuang Fudi next to him: "Do you think there seems to be something missing here?" ”

Listening to Li Wen's words, Zhuang Fudi looked around blankly, nodded and replied: "It seems that something is missing" As he was speaking, he suddenly patted Li Wen's shoulder and said with a smile: "I know what is missing, there is a lack of guards." ”

Li Wen listened to Zhuang Fudi's words, nodded thoughtfully, and immediately gave the order, until a large number of guards were arranged around the area, so that even a fly could not fly in the protection here, and then he returned to the city with Zhuang Fudi with confidence. Li Wen went back to his county guard mansion to rest, while Zhuang Fudi found a random guest room in the post station to rest, and both of them were waiting for Li Wenyuan's arrival tomorrow. This war against Xue Ju is undoubtedly the most urgent thing at this time, and Li Wenyuan must personally come to see it, and then he will make a decision.

Time came to the early morning of the next day in a blink of an eye, and Zhuang Fudi and Li Wen came to the platform together after breakfast, ready to welcome Li Wenyuan's arrival. Although Li Wenyuan only pulled Qiu Niang on a whim to board this steam locomotive, after all, he was the most powerful person in the entire Western Regions, and his every move was watched by countless people. So the news that he took a steam locomotive to Wuwei County finally spread and spread quickly.

Zhuang Fudi and Li Wen waited for Li Wenyuan's arrival on the platform, from the first appearance of the morning until the middle of the day, and there was no trace of Li Wenyuan in the blazing sun. The two of them stood on the platform for a whole morning under the sun, they were already thirsty and tired, but in order to greet Li Wenyuan with the best appearance, they were embarrassed to sit and wait. It wasn't until Li Wen and Zhuang Fudi felt that their stomachs were rumbling, and suddenly a long and loud whistle sounded along the west direction of the railway line in front of them.

The two of them heard clearly, and only the steam locomotive that Li Wenyuan was riding in the entire Western Regions could make this sound. The appearance of this voice also indicates that the steam locomotive that Li Wenyuan is riding on will stop next to this platform in a short time. The feeling of decadence that the two of them had been waiting for for a long time was suddenly swept away, and they all stood on the platform respectfully, turning sideways to face the direction of the steam train that Li Wenyuan was riding.

Sure enough, not long after the whistle sounded, a thick white smoke appeared on the horizon, and the wind could not disperse. And the white smoke is gradually approaching his side. As the white smoke got closer and closer, the ground under Zhuang Fudi and Li Wen's feet seemed to tremble together. The sound of the steam locomotive vibrating on the rails can be heard clearly even from a distance. Eventually, the locomotive came to the two of them and docked next to the platform as accurately as it had been rehearsed countless times. After the locomotive came to a complete stop, the door of one of the carriages slowly opened, and two people came out of it, one after the other.

It's none other than Li Wenyuan and Qiu Niang, who Zhuang Fudi and Li Wen are going to greet on this trip. Li Wenyuan smiled at Li Wen after seeing him, punched Li Wen on the shoulder and said, "You are good." When I left you in that county seat as a county magistrate, I really didn't expect you to sit in the position you are today. And I also made a bet with Juntai that it would be long before you would voluntarily resign and return to my guard as a normal soldier. But as it stands, it seems like I'm looking too much at you. You can say that you are mixed up here. Not only was it not defeated by these government affairs, but you relied on your own efforts to become the current feudal official of the town guard side from a county order, presumably there must be a lot of interesting stories in it. To be honest, I'm really curious. When you have some free time, tell me about your experiences over the years. ”

Li Wen listened to Li Wenyuan's words, shook his head with a smile, and said to Li Wenyuan: "Your Excellency. Or should I call you His Royal Highness the King of Tang now? The reason why Li Wen has today's achievements is inseparable from the promotion of me by the head of the family. If you hadn't overridden the public opinion and left me there as a prefectural magistrate, where would I be where I am today? Although it is said that there is no fish in water in the officialdom, but fortunately, there are rules formulated by His Royal Highness King Tang, so no matter what, we can still have something to eat. The so-called both the food and the king, for the sake of the king's worries, the head of the family handed over this position to me, so please rest assured, I, Li Wen, will definitely put out the fire and do not hesitate. No matter what you ask Li Wen to do, even if you go to the Nine Heavens to pick up the stars and the moon, Li Wen will definitely find a way to pick them off for you. ”

After hearing this, Li Wenyuan shook his head and said to Li Wen: "I told you when I spent money to save you brothers on the way to exile or the execution ground, I just want to make friends with you. Making friends always needs a meeting gift, but at that time I didn't have anything too good as a meeting gift, so I could only try my best to save your life, so I used your life as a meeting gift for us to make friends. From that day on, your lives and your freedom will be in your own hands. So no one can ask you to give your life for Him but yourselves, including me. So don't talk about these meaningless words in the future, if you really feel that you owe me Li Wenyuan something and want to compensate me, then that is, each of you live well, at least don't make meaningless sacrifices. That's the best reward for all the money and favors I spent. ”
