On a hill south of Wolongling.

Two figures stood quietly, one carrying a long sword and the other holding a rosary.

The person carrying the long sword was Yu Zheng, the suzerain of the Lishan Sword Sect, and the person holding the rosary was the abbot of Wanfu Temple, the great monk Tongming.

"Amitabha, sure enough, Zhenwu Si is prepared!" Tong Ming said in a calm tone.

Yu Zheng said indifferently: "It's just the expected thing!" ”

"If Zhenwu is so easy to solve, then it is impossible for them to leave Kyoto!"

Tong Ming looked at the long queue, his eyes deep and transparent.

"I'm afraid this Tianzhou is going to set off a bloody storm."

Yu Zheng glanced at him, with a hint of mockery on the corner of his mouth.

"Wanfu Temple, as the leader of Tianzhou martial arts, should eliminate disasters for the people of Tianzhou!"

Tong Ming turned his head to look at him, his deep eyes were unwavering.

"Amitabha, the Buddha also has the wrath of Vajra!"

Yu Zheng said with a smile: "The wrath of the King Kong waiting for the master below!" ”

"Master Yu will see it soon!" Tongming Road.

"That's good!"

Yu Zheng turned around and left, "It's just that this Buddha's gold-plated body, I don't know if it's gold and jade outside, and it's ruined inside." ”

This seems to be a mockery, but it also seems to be pointed.

But Tong Ming didn't care, he looked at the carriage on the official road again.

The cold autumn wind lifted his monk's robe, hunting sounded, and his bare head shone in the bright sun.

……

The army marched along the official road, and it was not until after walking out of the hundred miles that Song Yuanbo came to Qin Wei's carriage and said goodbye.

Originally, he deliberately wanted to protect Qin Wei's safety, but those martial artists did not directly collide with Qin Wei and Zhen Wusi's team, which made him seem a little redundant.

didn't help Qin Wei, which made Song Yuanbo feel a little apprehensive.

You must know that this time he risked violating military law to protect Qin Wei, if Qin Wei didn't write down this favor and didn't help him block the difficulties of the Dusi Yamen, his fate would definitely not be very good.

"Your Highness!"

Coming to Qin Wei's carriage, Song Yuanbo called softly.

"General Song!" Qin Wei lifted the curtain.

"When you get past that mountain, it will be the Qinghan River, and you will not be able to continue to escort Your Highness, please forgive Your Highness!" Song Yuanbo said.

Qin Wei bowed slightly, "This time the general came to help, this king will remember it in his heart." ”

Although Song Yuanbo didn't help much this time, at least he took the initiative to come, so Qin Wei had to accept this favor, and return it to Song Yuanbo in the future.

"Your Highness, the last general~" Song Yuanbo wanted to speak and stopped.

Qin Wei's eyebrows moved slightly, "The general has something to say, although it is the first time we have met, but this king knows that the general is a refreshing person." ”

Song Yuanbo took a deep breath and said, "There is something I want to ask for in the end, and I ask His Highness to help!" ”

"Let's take a look, as long as this king can help, this king will naturally not refuse!" Qin Wei said.

Song Yuanbo said: "This time, the last general did not receive the order of the Dusi Yamen to transfer troops out of the camp privately. ”

When Qin Wei heard this, he couldn't help but smile.

"This matter is simple, if the Dusi side comes to inquire, you will say that this king ordered you to go out of the camp."

"Is this okay?" Song Yuanbo worried.

It's not that he doesn't believe in Qin Wei, it's that he thinks Qin Wei is not qualified to mobilize Tianzhou's army.

Qin Wei said with a smile: "Your Majesty personally authorized that this king has the right to borrow three thousand battalions of soldiers at any time and anywhere. ”

Although Emperor Lihuang gave Qin Wei 3,000 soldiers before leaving Beijing, he did not take back the right to transfer troops from the Zhenwu Division, so after coming to Tianzhou, he could still borrow 3,000 battalions from the various Davids in Tianzhou.

"Ah, I see!"

Song Yuanbo was overjoyed, but then he said: "But this time, the last general will bring out 5,000 soldiers!" ”

“……”

Qin Wei looked at him speechlessly for a while.

"Is it five thousand, or three thousand, isn't it up to you?"

This guy is a bit honest!

Three thousand and five thousand seem to be a lot worse, but as long as you don't say who knows how to bring out five thousand soldiers.

Even if others know that you brought out 5,000 soldiers, as long as you don't admit it, who can bear it.

Song Yuanbo suddenly came back to his senses, and said with some embarrassment: "It's the last general who is too stupid!" ”

Qin Wei smiled and said, "General Song doesn't need to send more, just stay!" ”

"The last general sends it to His Highness!"

Song Yuanbo retreated to the side of the official road and bowed.

When Qin Wei was far away, Song Yuanbo let out a long breath, and the big stone hanging in his heart fell.

……

Tianzhou City.

In the lobby of the Yamen of the Chief Minister.

"These idiots are doing stupid things!"

Tian Sixin, the political envoy of Tianzhou, listened to the report of his subordinates, and scolded angrily with a cold face.

In the hall, several officials of the Political Department looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a while.

Tian Sixin scolded those Jianghu warriors who made trouble in Wolongling.

Although he already knew that Qin Wei had passed through Wolong Ridge safely, he still wanted to scold those martial arts forces.

"My lord, in a few days, the king of Xin'an will arrive in Tianzhou City, shouldn't we go out of the city to greet him?" He Zhijie, who participated in politics, asked.

In the Yamen of the Political Division, the political envoy is in charge of the government affairs of a province, the chief official, participating in the politics and the council, guarding each province, and being in charge of grain storage, tuntian, military affairs, post transmission, water conservancy, and faming. Generally, it is a four-rank official.

If an ordinary county king came to Tianzhou, they naturally didn't need to go out of the city to greet them, but Qin Wei came as the commander of the Zhenwu Division, and he also had the emperor's order, so if they didn't go out of the city to greet them, it was really a little unreasonable.

Tian Sixin frowned, and the heavy bags under his eyes trembled.

To be honest, he didn't want to go out of the city to greet Qin Wei and Zhenwusi, and he didn't want Zhenwusi to gain a firm foothold in Tianzhou City.

Of course, he didn't want Qin Wei to suffer any damage in Tianzhou.

The two are not contradictory.

He didn't welcome Qin Wei and Zhenwusi because Zhenwusi would bring a lot of trouble to Tianzhou after Zhenwusi came to Tianzhou.

As the political envoy of Tianzhou, he did not want any riots in Tianzhou.

And, in another year, his tenure in Tianzhou will be over.

The local officials of Dali will be evaluated at the end of their term of office.

The first "preliminary examination" will be held after three years of service, the second "re-examination" will be held after six years, and the third "general examination" will be held after a term of office of nine years.

Officials are divided into three grades: upper, middle, and lower.

And in another year, Tian Sixin's nine-year term of office will expire, and if nothing else, he is very likely to enter Beijing and enter the Sixth Ministry, or be transferred to Shilang, or promoted to Shangshu.

At this juncture, Tian Sixin naturally did not want any turmoil and trouble in Tianzhou.

But he couldn't stop the arrival of Takeshi Zhen.

"Hey~~"

He sighed lightly with a calm face, "Let's get ready, when the King of Xin'an County arrives in Tianzhou City, I will go to meet him." ”

The people have already come, and it is too late to stop it, so he can only pray that Zhen Wusi can do less in Tianzhou, so that he can spend the last year of his term in peace.

……

When Qin Wei arrived in Tianzhou City, it was already October 25, a journey of 1,500 miles, and it took 11 days.

Coming to Tianzhou City, Qin Wei's first impression of Tianzhou City was prosperity.

The ten-zhang high city wall is like a barrier to separate the inside and outside of the city, and the wide and majestic city gate is lined up with a long queue of pedestrians, chariots and horses, one after another.

Outside the city walls, there are also dense and chaotic houses, although there is no specific planning, but the market is formed.

At a glance, warriors carrying swords can be seen everywhere, even three or four-year-old children will hold wooden weapons, making noise back and forth in the streets and alleys of the houses, and the martial style seems to have been integrated into the bones of the people of Tianzhou.

Compared to the gorgeous and noble Kyoto Castle, the prosperity of Tenshu Castle seems to be more down-to-earth.

And the arrival of Qin Wei and Zhen Wusi also attracted the attention of many people.

On both sides of the official road, a large number of pedestrians and people came to watch.

It is no secret that Zhenwusi came to Tianzhou, most of the people inside and outside Tianzhou City have heard of it, but ordinary people just regard this as an after-dinner conversation, and they do not hate Zhenwusi.

After all, the duty of the Zhenwu Division is to deter the world's martial arts, and there is no direct interest relationship with ordinary people.

Therefore, when Zhen Wusi came to the outside of Tianzhou City, many people still came to watch with curiosity and expectations.

At the same time, the officials of Tianzhou City were also waiting outside the city for a long time.
