Chapter 120: Returning Home
Early the next morning, in the early morning, the capital slowly recovered.
Yu Hua and Chen Xichu packed their luggage and prepared to leave.
Although the news that he had been demoted to a local petty official had spread throughout the capital, few people knew about their hasty departure.
Even the scholar didn't know that Yu Hua would leave the capital the next morning.
In the small courtyard, there were only a few people standing at this time, except for Yu Hua and Chen Xichu, only Ji Yuan and the national teacher of the dynasty.
"Brother Yu, this farewell, I don't know when I can see you again, if you encounter trouble in the place and need my help, please be sure to write to inform. ”
Regarding the handover of this courtyard, it has already been completed, and with the Ji family's power in the capital, it is easy to deal with this mansion worth only hundreds of taels of silver.
After all, the two have been at ease in the capital for a long time, and Ji Yuan is also very reluctant to give up such a friend.
Yu Hua nodded and agreed, but both of them knew that one was in the local area and the other was in the capital, and the financial support might be able to provide some, but at other levels, there was no hope.
Escorted by the national teacher and Ji Yuan, Yu Hua and Chen Xichu left from the city gate.
Looking at their distant figures, Ji Yuan couldn't help but feel a little sad.
At the head of the city not far from him, the two looked into the distance, which was the direction Yu Hua left.
These two people are Her Royal Highness Feng Rin, the princess who lives outside the palace in the capital, and her maid Xiaoshi.
She has a very good relationship with Chen Xichu, but she has been hiding it from Yu Hua, Ji Yuan can come to the door to say goodbye, but she can only watch in the dark.
Seeing the two disappear into the sky, Feng Rin walked down the city, her figure was a little lonely, as if a friend had left, making her a little lonely.
Yazhou is located in the southern part of the Tenglong Kingdom, separated from the capital by another state capital.
There are official roads connected along the way, which can be regarded as safe, and all kinds of facilities are convenient, which is similar to going out to travel.
When Yu Hua crossed over to this, they had already come to the capital from their hometown.
So for this way back to his hometown, he is very unfamiliar.
Riding in a carriage and marching along the official road, two days passed, and they had left the capital far away.
The city that is about to be reached in front of us is Chengzhou, south of the capital.
Although there are also many county capitals along the way, which can supplement the needs, but as the capital of a state, they cannot miss Chengzhou.
Yu Hua planned to go to it for a short rest and replenish what he needed.
Unexpectedly, when he saw the city gate from a distance, he found that there were several characters under the city who were dressed extraordinarily and could fight with those rich children in the capital, who were standing there, as if waiting for something.
The carriage approached, only to see that the checkpoints had been laid under the city of Chengzhou, and all the carriages that passed by from here and wanted to continue to the south needed to be checked.
Seeing this scene, Yu Hua was shocked, and the first thing he thought of was whether anyone planned to kill him.
After all, in the capital, he has also offended a lot, but thinking of the calm of the past two days, he feels that it is a little unlikely.
I still have the appointment letter of the ministry and the edict of the emperor of Tenglong Kingdom, unless the emperor wants to move himself, I am afraid that no one will dare to make a public move.
Before he could reveal his identity, those people seemed to find themselves waiting for the person they were waiting for.
There was an uproar, and a group of people gathered around.
"What are you doing here?"
If there was only Yu Hua alone, with his strength as a martial artist, he would not be afraid, but now that there was Chen Xichu in the carriage, he had to think about it more.
Seeing a group of people surrounding him, Yu Hua asked vigilantly.
When the leader saw Yu Hua, a smile bloomed on his face.
He hurriedly explained: "Don't misunderstand Yu Wulian, I am the master of Chengzhou, I heard that Wulian returned from the capital, and after passing here, I wanted to come to greet him." ”
The people behind him also smiled kindly.
After a simple conversation, Yu Hua also figured out that these people were all officials from Chengzhou, and they were ordered by the state government to receive him here.
The head of Chengzhou, Yu Wulian, was one by one, and the kindness in his words made Yu Hua seem like his great benefactor.
At first, Yu Hua was surprised, he was just a former martial artist who was degraded, could they be so grand?
Later he learned that they were counting on him to say a few more good words in front of the emperor.
To figure this out, he explained again and again, saying that he was not familiar with the emperor and had never even met the saint.
But where do their old foxes believe it? One by one, they are so enthusiastic that they don't want to.
It is true that Yu Hua does not know such a person as Shengshang, but he knows the national teacher, and he is still a Hanlin in the court, and his identity is more important than Lord Zhiqincha.
The hospitality of these officials of the Chengzhou Prefecture was difficult to resist, and Yu Hua really couldn't postpone it, so he agreed to stay in Chengzhou for two days.
In the past two days, he has lived a nourishing life.
Every day, there are people who make good food and drink to deliver it, and when he hears that there is a famous spot nearby, he just mentions it by chance, and the officials of the state capital are busy arranging people to arrange for him to accompany him on a visit.
This treatment, he has never enjoyed in the capital.
Although it was only two days, the officials in the state capital arranged a good mansion for them to live in.
This huge mansion, Yu Hua is a little unaccustomed to living in it.
What surprised him even more was the celebrities who gathered around every day and came to the door to ask to see.
If it weren't for the fact that the governor of the state government personally sent guards to guard the mansion, he was really worried that those celebrities who came to visit would squeeze the mansion to it.
Even so, there were still many anxious people who planned to sneak in overnight to ask for a meeting, but they were caught by those guards.
If he hadn't seen those people dressed in a lot of clothes, he would have thought that he was a thief!
During this period, the governor of Chengzhou once visited him, saying that he wanted to invite him to a banquet specially set up to welcome his arrival.
Yu Hua was reluctant to show his face, and when he heard his refusal, the governor of this state, who was too big in the eyes of ordinary people, actually showed a look of loss.
Chen Xichu has never seen such a big battle, and Yu Hua is still responsible for everything, she only needs to stand aside and accompany her quietly, and it won't be too troublesome.
That's it, she is also a little unbearable, after all, she is just an ordinary woman, and she can't compare in terms of physical strength and energy.
After eating and drinking for two days, making up for the things he needed on the road, and also carrying a lot of local specialties in Chengzhou, he finally set off and continued to his hometown in Yazhou.
Hearing the news that he was leaving, the master of Chengzhou, who was in charge of the reception, was extremely reluctant.
If it weren't for Yu Hua taking out the edict and saying that if he didn't leave for his hometown to take up his post, His Majesty the Emperor would come to him for trouble.
That's why they would let him go.
Another journey, the two of them went in the direction of Yazhou.
Along the way, perhaps with the care of the governor of Chengzhou, the county governments that passed by learned the news of his arrival, and they went out of the city for several miles to greet him.
But with these county orders, Yu Hua doesn't have to be so polite.
With his previous experience in Chengzhou, he also knew how to deal with these people.
It's just a county order, and after this area, there is no intersection between the two sides.
Yu Hua had no intention of delaying with them, so he made an excuse at random, so he avoided many welcomes and ran straight towards his destination.
After many days like this, they finally left Chengzhou, and their distant hometown was close at hand.
Even Chen Xichu was a little excited, after all, she had grown up and lived in this land for more than ten years, and now that she was far away from home and was able to return home, the excitement in her heart was naturally difficult to suppress.
On the carriage, it was obvious to the naked eye that Chen Xichu had a lot more words.
Now she is like a girl of this age, lively and active.
She kept telling about the details of life in this land, although there were many things that she had already told Yu Hua.
But those details, the original martial idiot didn't have much impact, and Yu Hua, who had crossed over, naturally wouldn't be clear, and this re-mention also made Yu Hua know a lot about the past between the two.
In the distance, the outline of the small town on that side can already be seen.
Chen Xichu poked his head out, looked at the small city in the distance, and kept waving.
And when they had gone a short way, they saw that on both sides of the road there were suddenly many more people.
This seems to be the villagers in Chaiyun County, who were waiting on the side of the road, and when they saw Yu Hua's carriage arrive, their faces were filled with happy smiles.
Amid the cheers of these people, the carriage moved slowly.
The villagers who came to welcome them also followed the carriage and walked towards Cloud Chasing City.
You don't have to think about it to know that this is a good thing that the county order of Chasing Yun does, and the reason why he does it is also very simple.
Even the object of the Zhizhou of one side wants to stammer, how dare he not treat it carefully.
Seeing the villagers who came to greet him, Yu Hua's heart was still calm, but it was Chen Xichu, who was a little panicked when he saw such a formation.
When she and Yu Hua came to the capital, they had experienced many times in fear, and they had never seen such a formation.
It's just an ordinary woman, and seeing that she is a fellow villager in the same county, how can she not be in a hurry.
In the distance, by the city gate, two figures stood.
As the carriage approached, the appearance of the two men became clear.
"Daddy!"
One of them was the head of the Chen family, and he was accompanied by the county magistrate of Chaiyun County.
The moment she saw Chen's father, the excitement in Chen Xichu's heart was irrepressible, the carriage was still slowly advancing, she couldn't sit still, and wanted to run forward.
Seeing her so excited, Yu Hua asked the coachman to stop the carriage, and he grabbed the excited Chen Xichu.
Being pulled by him, Chen Xichu's excited heart also calmed down a lot, she calmed down, and slowly got out of the carriage with Yu Hua's traction.
Seeing the two of them walking down, the people around them burst into cheers.
Yu Hua is the pride of the Chen family, he was not only admitted to the martial arts academy, but also became a martial artist, and now he has been sent to the local area to serve as a county martial arts practitioner.
When Chen's father got the news, he was very excited.
Similarly, when the Chaiyun County Commander learned that Yu Hua, the big man who had entered Beijing to take the martial arts examination, had been personally sent here by His Majesty the Emperor of the Dynasty, he was both happy and worried.
Happily, there are such heroes in this side of the water and soil, and the worry is that although Yu Hua is a county martial arts practitioner under him, this is a figure from the capital.
Even Zhizhou has to be cautious, not to mention his small county order.
Fortunately, not long after he learned the news, his old friend, Chen's father, came to visit the county government and patted his chest to pack the ticket, so that he didn't have to worry.
The relationship between Yu Hua and Chen Xichu is naturally clear to the county order, and when he heard Chen's father say this, he was also a lot more relieved.
But it's one thing to have a good relationship, it's another thing to treat it, and this face-saving project can't be saved.
So there is today's play.
Chen Xichu was extremely excited when she saw Chen's father coming to greet her, if it weren't for Yu Hua's pull, she would have already pounced.
It's just that the two of them are not ordinary after all, and in front of everyone, so many people greeted them ceremoniously, so they naturally had to show extraordinary demeanor.
"Yu Hua, Xi Chu, welcome back. ”
Father Chen and Chaiyun County Ling said one after the other.
has returned to his hometown, and the things on the carriage are naturally packed up.
The county order of Chasing Yun welcomed a few people to the county government, and without the gaze of many people, Chen Xichu finally had the opportunity to show the joy in his heart.
Chen Xichu sat next to Chen's father, chattering about what happened to the two of them in the capital during this time.
Yu Hua was not left out in the cold, and at this time, the Chaiyun County Order dared to step forward and say some words of welcome to Yu Hua.
This is also a test of his style of acting, after all, although Yu Hua serves as a martial artist under him, these kinds of characters are not something he can offend, so he naturally has to find out his temper.
Although he is very unfamiliar with everything here, Yu Hua is not a snob, and he is naturally friendly in the face of the enthusiastic county order.
Seeing that he was so easy to speak, the county commander of Chasing Yun finally put his mind at ease, and he left here to deal with affairs, and by the way, he prepared a dinner party to welcome Yu Hua.
Father Chen listened to it for a long time, and left early because he helped with tonight's banquet.
Leaving Yu Hua and Chen Xichu, Chen Xichu's enthusiasm did not completely subside, and she took advantage of this time to pull Yu Hua to play in the county government.
Chen Xichu told Yu Hua about the various decorations in this courtyard like a few treasures.
Although Yu Hua has lived in the Chen family for a short time, he has been practicing martial arts, and he naturally has never been to this county government.
Hearing her say this, Yu Hua could also feel that the relationship between the Chen family and the county order was very good.
The sky gradually sank, and the dinner party was almost ready, and the county commander sent people to invite them to the banquet.
In Chengzhou before, he may have used various reasons to refuse Zhizhou's invitation, but in this Chaiyun County, he has no reason.
After all, this is their hometown, and it is to wash the dust for the two of them, and they should go to this dinner party.
The reason why he didn't go to the banquet before was also because of Chen Xichu.
Now that he is back in his hometown, Chen Xichu is also very willing, and Yu Hua will naturally not refuse.
And just like that, the dinner began.
There were not many people attending the dinner, the protagonists were naturally Yu Hua and the others, in addition to Chen's father and the county order of Chasing Yun, there were also some of the gentry and the main bookkeeper.
The banquet was very lively, and Chen Xichu also showed a different appearance from when she was in the capital, it seemed that it was because this was her home, and most of the people who came to this dinner were her acquaintances.
