People who do not belong to Liaodong will finally leave Liaodong.
For Jiang Wan's team, being able to stay in Ningyuan for such a long time is already considered as fulfilling their duties. It's time to see what needs to be seen and check what needs to be checked. It's almost time to bring the results they got back to the capital. .
If it weren't for Yang Lin's arrival, maybe they could stay here for a few more days. Feng Wanli and Jiang Wan's unexpected achievements made all the officials in the team feel proud, and they even participated in this incident. The illusion of great victory.
However, the arrival of Yang Lin finally made them understand that they still did not belong here. This was not only a place of war and danger, but also intrigues. This place did not belong to officials like them.
As for Gao Di and Yuan Chonghuan, it is not up to them to decide who will have the upper hand in this official battle. In this case, after their own affairs are done, why not stay in this whirlpool shamelessly.
Jiang Wan was naturally delighted to hear this, and Catherine couldn't wait to return home. For her, these large quantities of high-quality leather goods brought back from Liaodong were more worthy of her concern than anything else.
The journey from Ningyuan to Shanhaiguan was uneventful. When we entered Shanhaiguan, the temperature rose a bit and everyone's journey went much faster. When they arrived at the inn outside the capital, Jiang Wan and Catherine broke up with everyone.
These officials had to wait outside the inn, but Jiang Wan and Catherine were not people appointed by the imperial court to go on errands, so they did not need to abide by the imperial court's rules.
Catherine happily took her goods and went to Honglu Temple, where the Folangji people had a long-term residence, which was a bit like the Folangji office in Beijing. Jiang Wan took her own A group of subordinates wandered towards Zhouzhuang.
As Zhouzhuang gets closer and closer, the green that cannot be seen in Liaodong becomes lower and lower, and the teenagers finally become more lively.
There was no need to maintain the composure and toughness that had always been maintained in front of outsiders, and Jiang Wan did not restrain them any more, and just let them talk and laugh all the way towards Zhouzhuang.
When he left, there were thirty people. When he came back, there were twenty-seven people. Three of them stayed in Ningyuan, just like he sent a few people to Haojing'ao.
Tingyu Tower is destined not to be a small idle institution in the palace, nor is it just to cultivate a private force for Zhu Youjian. In Jiang Wan's heart, Tingyu Tower is destined to become bigger and stronger, and it is destined to become bigger and stronger. It is to be used by the entire Ming Dynasty.
More and more people will be sent out like this in the future. The experience, rotation, performance evaluation and many other things of these personnel will have to be carefully sorted out after they come back.
Thinking about his thoughts and walking slowly, Zhouzhuang gradually appeared in his eyes. When the people in Zhuangzi saw the group of them appearing and started shouting to welcome them out, Jiang Wan suddenly felt a sense of The feeling of coming home.
Although his real home is in the city, not far from the Tenth Prince's Mansion, to him, that place is more like a house where he once lived, and this place is more like home.
The teenagers greeted him happily, and each found their familiar companions to talk and laugh. Su Qianqian and a few girls were standing not far away with a smile. The Zhouzhuang head with a bright chrysanthemum smile on his face looked like Like a loyal old servant, he rubbed his hands nervously.
He probably wanted to say something festive, but Su Qianqian didn't speak, so he didn't dare to say it instead!
"Mr. Jiang is back. It's been a hard journey!"
Su Qianqian smiled lightly, and as soon as she opened her mouth, Zhou Zhuangtou seemed to have received permission and started speaking hurriedly: "The messenger came back first. Wine, food, food and hot water have been prepared in the village. I heard that this time
The steward has made great achievements in Liaodong, and the people in Zhuangzi are as happy as if they were celebrating the New Year!"
"What a great achievement, the little guy who came to report was just talking nonsense!" Jiang Wan smiled and waved her hand: "It's true that I almost didn't come back."
"Mr., auspicious people and celestial beings, even if you encounter any dangerous things, you will be able to save the day!" Su Qianqian said with a smile: "However, it is true that everyone is happy when Mr. Wang comes back. When the prince was in the village a few days ago, everyone was very depressed.
Don’t dare to say anything nonsense!”
"Oh, is he still there?" Jiang Wan followed her in and asked casually.
"How can I be here all the time? I came here three times in total!" Su Qianqian said: "Sometimes I stay here for a night, sometimes I stay for a few hours and then leave. I said I came to see everyone on behalf of my husband, although I didn't
No matter what else, everyone is just a little scared!"
"It's a good thing to know that you're afraid!" Jiang Wan nodded, "Eunuch Wang is the most important person around the prince. He is the eyes and ears of the prince. If I don't even have this sense of awe, I really don't know what I am doing.
Who are the people who have been cultivated in Zhuangzi!"
"By the way, you arrange for someone to go back to the palace and report to the prince. Tell him that I am back and am outside the city now. I will come to see the prince tomorrow!"
"No need, I'll just go back and tell him!" A voice sounded from under the eaves. Jiang Wan turned around, feeling a little stunned.
"Sister Fuyao, why are you here!?"
"Why can't I be here!" Li Fuyao said with a serious look on his face: "Also, Mr. Steward, you can just call me Li Fuyao in Zhuangzi. When you get to the palace, you can call me whatever you want!"
Jiang Wan glanced at Su Qianqian with some confusion. Su Qianqian smiled lightly, but didn't say anything and stepped away slightly.
"The prince asked me to come here!"
Li Fuyao rolled his eyes: "Tingyulou cost the prince so much money, and you went to Liaodong again. There is no reliable person here to look after the prince. Can the prince feel relieved?"
"You know everything?" Jiang Wan was slightly surprised. It would be better for Zhu Youjian to send someone here than to send Li Fuyao. You know, she has a background from the Hakka family.
He frowned slightly, and Li Fuyao suddenly became a little unhappy: "Let me say it again, I am the prince's man. No matter what I have done before or who I have served, after your majesty gives me to the prince,
I, Li Fuyao, belong to the prince, do you think you can't trust me if you frown like this?"
"What did the prince say?" Jiang Wan was no longer joking with Li Fuyao when she was in the palace, and looked at her seriously.
Li Fuyao's face suddenly turned slightly red: "What did the prince say? When you see the prince tomorrow, won't you ask the prince?"
After saying that, she seemed to be a little annoyed and stamped her feet, turned around and left angrily.
This made Jiang Wan a little confused. He looked at Su Qianqian, who kept smiling lightly.
"What's wrong with her?"
"Sir, don't ask Qianqian, Qianqian, I don't know anything..."
