"I'll repair a book, you immediately send someone into Beijing, send it to the Jinyi Guard's yamen, and hand it over to the Jinyi Guard's commander He Wencan and Lord He! In addition, more soldiers were sent to surround the docks, and no one was allowed to approach. I'll wait for a few other people's belongings to be delivered, and we'll be staying on the boat for the next few days!"

Zhu Wenyu said a word, Li Bo responded, and when Zhu Wenyu finished speaking, Li Bo responded six or seven times, and he didn't dare to raise his head.

"Brother Zhu."

"What's wrong? Eagle? ”

"This matter is very important, I should send this letter in person, Lord Li's people may not be able to find the Jinyi Wei Yamen, and Lord He may not necessarily see them, in case something goes wrong, it will be a lot of trouble. Commander He made it easier for me to find someone, and I will go back to the city to find out if there are any people from the beggar gang, and also call some people to come and escort the boat. The desert whispered.

"Well, it's fine, just overworked you, Eagle." Zhu Wenyu felt a warmth in his heart, and deeply felt the friendship of brothers.

"Brother Zhu also told me this. Hehe. Desert smiled, turned to Li Bo and said, "Have you ever heard Lord Qincha's orders?" Send more soldiers, strictly guard the wharf, protect the silver boat, and pick a few fast horses, and I will enter Beijing immediately. ”

"Also, the corpses of these soldiers on the ship have been disposed of well, and they will all be buried thickly, without the slightest neglect." Zhu Wenyu interjected again.

"Yes, yes, the lower officials understand, the lower officials understand, the lower officials will do it immediately, do it immediately." Li Bo nodded again and again, although it was a cool autumn night, the beads of sweat on his forehead were rolling down.

For a few days in a row, Zhu Wenyu Nangong Lingbai Yuwei Tang Yun and others all ate on the boat and lived on the boat, even Tongling County Ling Li Bo was trembling, he didn't dare to slack off at all, and the yamen didn't dare to go back, so he directly built a shed on the dock to live, it turned out that none of the officers and soldiers under Cui Yan were used, and almost all the officials in the county were transferred, and there were only about 100 of them, and a few boats were surrounded tightly. But I was still afraid that Zhu Wenyu, the minister of the Imperial Mission, would not be satisfied, and he would be able to ask for his own head in one sentence. Fortunately, Zhu Wenyu was originally a casual temperament, not the kind of official who was powerful and powerful, and he was irritable at first, but after a day or two, the originally boring mood slowly settled down.

As for the whereabouts of Cui Yan and Chen Hanyi, Zhu Wenyu originally wanted Li Bo to arrange someone to track down their whereabouts, but then after thinking about it, more than 100 errand soldiers were already too busy guarding the silver boat, and there was really no one to track down Chen Hanyi's whereabouts, and Chen Hanyi was a first-class master, and Cui Yan also brought a group of officers and soldiers, all of whom were regular soldiers, and the dozens of errand soldiers who were idle ran into eggs and stones to find their own death, or dispelled this idea.

Fortunately, the waiting time was not long, but in five or six days, the desert had already turned back from Beijing, and it seemed that it did not stay for a day, and it actually brought a thousand brocade guards, a color of military horses, and the whole vast army, with many banners, and the soldiers were brightly dressed, fat and strong, far from being comparable to the local officers and soldiers.

"Eagle, why did you bring so many people here?" Zhu Wenyu said with a smile.

"I went to Beijing to find the commander Lord He, and Lord He immediately reported to the emperor, and the emperor was very happy, and immediately ordered to send a thousand brocade guards to escort the stolen silver." Desert smiled: "This journey is majestic, even Lord He came in person." ”

"Oh? Is it? Where is Master Ho? Zhu Wenyu said. He Wencan commanded the Jinyi Guard, and it was very rare to personally lead the Jinyi Guard's army to come. Counting him, he is still Zhu Wenyu's serious boss, and Zhu Wenyu, who is familiar with the rules of officialdom, is also very surprised.

"Lord Zhu exterminated the Tianyi Alliance this time, returned to Beijing victoriously, and eradicated the great trouble for the emperor, which is really a great achievement, and it is gratifying." Over there, He Wencan had already dismounted and walked over, smiling and arching his hand.

"Don't dare, don't dare, how dare you take credit for a little work? With Lord Lao He thousands of miles away, Zhu really can't afford it. Hehe. Zhu Wenyu hurriedly returned the salute.

"Hehe, where is it, Lord Zhu was originally a celebrity in front of the emperor, and this time he has made a great contribution, the emperor will have a reward, Lord Zhu is just around the corner, and the future is bright." He Wencan said with a smile.

"Don't dare, don't dare, I still trust the emperor to be blessed with all the heavens, the strength of the Tianyi Alliance has been exhausted, Zhu is just working a little hard, sharing worries for the emperor, how dare you invite merit and be proud, Lord He and don't make fun of it." Zhu Wenyu felt very tired of talking about these officialdom clichΓ©s, but he had to say it, but on the surface, he said it very sincerely.

But seeing He Wencan's smile, he said solemnly: "The holy decree has arrived!" Zhu Wenyu took the order!"

Zhu Wenyu was stunned for a moment, bowed to the ground, he often did not kneel when he talked to Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang of Hongwu when he was in the palace, but now he is in front of everyone, and the holy decree is down, and he has to give Emperor Ming a little face. He knelt down, and even Nangong Lingbai Yuwei and Tang Yun also knelt down, as for Li Bo and the other messengers, they had already knelt on the ground as early as when He Wencan said the word "receive the order".

He Wencan unfolded the holy decree and recited it aloud: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said: Zhu Wenyu, the deputy commander of Jinyiwei, was ordered to conquer the Tianyi Alliance, won a complete victory, and seized millions of taels of silver from the traitors. Zhu Wenyu handed over the stolen silver to Jinyiwei and Miao Jianwei led Jinyiwei to escort Jinyiwei into Beijing, and Zhu Wenyu and others immediately followed He Wencan into Beijing to face me, and I should be rewarded for meritorious service. Chin!"

"Thanksgiving, long live long live, long live!" Zhu Wenyu and others kowtowed.

"Long live Shengming, I want to reward Lord Zhu, He is here to congratulate Lord Zhu first." He Wencan handed the holy decree to Zhu Wenyu with both hands and said with a smile.

"Lord Ho made fun of it."

"I wonder when Master Zhu is going to leave for Beijing?"

"Didn't the Holy Decree say to enter Beijing immediately? Then let's go now, I'm bored anyway, just pat my ass and leave. Ha ha. This silver can be handed over to you, Lord He, why don't you order it? Zhu Wenyu smiled and patted the dust on his knees.

"Hehe, where is it, how can Master Zhu make a mistake? The matter of the silver is handed over to Miao Jianwei, so I'll leave immediately, right? ”

"Okay, okay, it's noon, eat first, eat first, eat when you're full, eat on the road, eat on the road, haha."

"Okay, let He first toast Lord Zhu with a cup, and congratulate Lord Zhu on his victorious return to the dynasty and his promotion to the knighthood! Ha ha. ”

The banquet was held in the yamen of Tongling County.

Jinyi Wei is the close attendant of the Son of Heaven, and has the position of inspector and hundred officials, one is a deputy and two commanders are here at the same time, it can be said that Tongling County has never been seen since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, Li Bo trembled and did not dare to slack off at all, and arrested the owner of the best restaurant in the city, and ordered him to do his best to make a meal of wine and food, and then toast a glass here and there, and touch a lamp here and there, but Zhu Wenyu and He Wencan are not the kind of people who are carried away by people who say a few good words and pour a few cups of soup, It was lukewarm and tepid to him Li Bo, which made Li Bo's heart go up and down, and he didn't know how to tie up with the two adults to meet their appetites.

"Hehe, eagle, I didn't expect you to become our Jinyi Guard, the emperor's uncle is generous, and he sent a fellow acquaintance to you as soon as he made a move, why don't you give us a piece of wood? Hehe. Zhu Wenyu learned from He Wencan's mouth that Zhu Yuanzhang actually came to appoint another official, and also sealed a brocade guard to the desert, and said with a smile.

"Yes, Lord Sha followed Lord Zhu to conquer the Tianyi League this time, and his contribution is indispensable, what a saint is that it is to praise Lord Sha's merits that he personally ordered the title of Lord Sha Jinyiwei's Tongzhi. Come, Lord Sha, I will toast you again, one is to congratulate, and the other is to wish Lord Sha a bright future, soaring, and rising step by step!" He Wencan raised his wine glass and smiled.

"Don't dare, don't dare, thank you Lord He, the grass people are just doing their best for the Ming Dynasty, sharing the emperor's worries, and receiving the grace of the saints, the grass people are not very afraid. I'm afraid that this time I would like to thank the adults for their kind words in front of the emperor, and here the grass people salute the adults with a cup, thank you for your support. Desert said, picking up his glass and leaning back. With the thoughtfulness of the desert, he knew that this time it must be the fruit of He Wencan's praise of himself in front of Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Where, where." He Wencan laughed loudly and said: "The main thing is that Lord Sha has made great contributions this time, and He is just playing according to the truth in front of the emperor." But Lord Sha, what you said is still a little inappropriate. A glass of wine should be punished. ”

"I don't know what's wrong? I hope for your advice. The desert was a little inexplicable, putting down the wine glass and looking at He Wencan. Zhu Wenyu, Nangong Ling, and Bai Yuwei next to him also looked over.

"Lord Sha is now known as the official residence of Jinyi Wei, and it can be regarded as a fourth official title, where can he still call himself a grass people? Do you need to be penalized with a glass of wine? He Wencan said with a smile.

"Hehe, Lord He is right, the villain is willing to be punished." Desert smiled, picked up a glass of wine, and drank it all.

"As for Nangong Shaoxia, this time it was also a lot of credit, but Nangong Shaoxia was born in the first family of martial arts, and he has deep roots." He Wencan said again: "I want to come to the emperor to also think of the tutor of the Nangong family, and before I discussed it with the master of Nangong, it is not good to be an official for Nangong Shaoxia for the time being, and I hope that Nangong Shaoxia will not ......" and stared at Nangong Ling.

"Lord He was too worried, Nangong Ling didn't dare. Nangong Ling respects Lord He with a cup. Nangong Ling smiled faintly, took the cup and raised it to He Wencan, and drank it all.

"Hahahaha, that's good, that's good. Lord Zhu, what I He Wencan respect the most is the master who contributed to the court for the Ming Dynasty, Lord Zhu's martial arts are high, and he is a celebrity in front of the emperor, and the future is bright. ”

"Lord He said and laughed, come, drink." Zhu Wenyu smiled and fell away.

"But what He envy the most is that Lord Zhu is accompanied by a chivalrous girl like Miss Tang, a golden boy and a jade girl, a match made in heaven. It's really envious of others. ”

Tang Yun next to him didn't say much, just smiled faintly and raised the cup: "Thank you, Lord He, the little girl respects Lord He with a cup." ”

"Haha, Miss Tang's wine He must drink, come, He Mou respects Miss Tang and Lord Zhu with a glass, I wish the two of them a good old age, a hundred years together, if it is a wine one day, He will definitely support it, and then give Miss Tang a chic gift! Come, Li Bo, pour the wine for Miss Tang and Master Zhu!" Li Bo hurriedly came over to pour wine.
