The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 424 Return to Shangzhou!
"Yes, Lord Hou!" Gao Jun replied, riding his horse, he ran from Xuan Shijing's carriage to the front of the team, stopping the whole team.

"Master Hou has orders! Turn the horse's head and return to Shangzhou!" Gao Jun rode at the front of the team and shouted to the rear.

"Return to Shangzhou?"

As soon as the order came out, doubts emerged in the hearts of many people in the entire team, how did they go well and go back to Shangzhou?Isn't Master Hou in a hurry?
Although they were puzzled in their hearts, the guards of the Hou Mansion were still very mobile. After receiving the order, they immediately turned their horses' heads, and the front station changed to the tail. The whole team slowly began to walk in the direction of Shangzhou City.

"Brother Gao, why are you walking so well, are you going back to Shangzhou again?" The third child rode up to Gao Jun's side and asked in confusion.

"This is Master Hou's order. Maybe Lord Hou has thought of something." Gao Jun smiled at the third child, and then said: "After returning to Shangzhou City, Master Hou may make some arrangements. To attack Qin Zhan, after all, there is always such a lingering person hiding in the front and waiting to ambush my Lord Hou, it is not a good thing."

The third child nodded thoughtfully. Is Dongshan Hou going to solve his worries first?

Xuan Shijing's team started to go to Shangzhou, but Qin Zhan, who was ambushing in front, didn't know, and still squatted in the grass with No. Nothing else is useless, as long as the young master's team enters the encirclement at that time, he will lead the brothers to stop the team and fight directly. Anyway, it is useless to talk, and it will waste time.

Through yesterday's incident, Qin Zhan also knew that this Young Master Hou is also a cunning fox. The more he talks to this kind of person, the less chance he can achieve his goal.

So Qin Zhan and the master around him thought about it for a long time, and felt that to deal with this kind of person, don't say anything, just do it!
Qin Zhan wanted to understand, but today he was doomed and couldn't do it.

Xuan Shijing's team has turned back to Shangzhou City, so Qin Zhan's people are destined to wait in vain.

It wasn't very long before the team left Shangzhou City, so they returned to Shangzhou City after only walking for an hour. It's time for lunch.

Although Yingtou has decided not to get involved in this matter, the things that happened around Shangzhou City still cannot be hidden from Yingtou's eyes. When he learned that Xuan Shijing changed direction and returned to Shangzhou City, Yingtou was also puzzled for a while. It seemed that Dongshan Hou had been hurrying on his way for the past two days. Why did he slow down his trip today and turned back to Shangzhou? It's a bit wrong.
Could it be to guard against Qin Zhan?
Of course, Yingtou, Lao San and the others don't know. Now the news of the Hou Mansion has spread all over the Tang Dynasty, and there are many carrier pigeons in some important contact points. Using carrier pigeons to deliver news is comparable to Xuan Shijing's rushing to the Tang Dynasty. Jingzhou was much faster. Anyway, the Hou Mansion also had people in Jingzhou, not to mention Gao Yuan must still be in Jingzhou now.

Xuan Shijing and his group returned to the inn again, which also made the shopkeeper of the inn curious, how could his Master Hou have just left this morning, and why he came back in a blink of an eye.

The shopkeeper hurriedly ordered the waiter under him, the handyman and the cook in the back kitchen to serve his master Hou and his party.

"The third master." Xuan Shijing got out of the carriage, walked to the third child, cupped his hands and said, "It's really hard for the third master to follow us this trip."

Seeing Xuan Shijing coming in person, the third child hurriedly bowed and said he dared not.

"Now that we have returned to Shangzhou City, you must have some doubts in your heart. This can tell you that it doesn't matter. You must also know that Qin Zhan's thieves are not dead. Benhou made up his mind to return to Shangzhou to find a way to die forever. Future troubles, if this is the case, if we go on the road again, if it continues like this, Qin Zhen's ghost will linger, and Benhou will not be able to go on the road with peace of mind. The kindness of the master."

"Master Hou is polite. Now that Master Hou has come to a conclusion, it is inconvenient for the villain to disturb Master Hou anymore. I will take someone back to the village on the mountain to report and leave." Old Sangong said injured.

Xuan Shijing cupped his hands and watched the third child leave the inn door with his two guards on horseback.

After entering the inn, Xuan Shijing brought Gao Jun and Long'er back to the room, while Shi Hu stayed behind to arrange the affairs of the entire team.

The four treasures of the study were prepared in the room. Xuan Shijing spread out the paper, picked up the pen, and began to write letters. The paper carried by the flying pigeons was too inconvenient, so Xuan Shijing wrote all in small letters. After writing, He took out his own seal from the kit at his waist, and stamped it on the letter. He wrote two copies of the letter. After the ink dried, Xuan Shijing folded the new paper and handed it to Gao Jun.

Carrier pigeons usually release a few more pigeons to send letters just in case, but the reason why Xuan Shijing only wrote two copies is also to prevent the contents of this letter from being leaked in case of accidents in the past.

"Take it, let the contact point send it to Jingzhou, it's best to send it directly to your elder brother." Xuan Shijing said, and added: "If there are two carrier pigeons, there should be no problem, right?"

"Don't worry, Lord Hou." Gao Jun responded, "This carrier pigeon is only flying to Dengzhou, and it will be exchanged from Dengzhou for a carrier pigeon to Jingzhou. In this way, nothing will go wrong."

"Since that's the case, I'm relieved. Send this letter."

Gao Jun responded, and left the inn with Xuan Shijing's handwritten letter.

"Long'er, the affairs on Shihu's side should have been settled, call everyone to the backyard of the inn, let's discuss about Qin Zhan's matter." Xuan Shijing told Long'er.

"Yes, Lord Hou." Long'er also turned around and left the room to summon the guards of the Hou's mansion.

Xuan Shijing tidied up, went downstairs and walked to the lobby of the inn.

"The shopkeeper." Xuan Shijing stood in the hall and called out.

The shopkeeper heard his Lord Hou calling him again, and trotted out from behind.

"What's your order, Lord Hou?" The shopkeeper bowed and stood beside Xuan Shijing.

"Tell your buddy not to disturb any guests coming outside in a while." Xuan Shijing said.

"Yes, Lord Hou, don't worry, our inn won't entertain other guests these few days." The shopkeeper said.

This city of Shangzhou is a transfer station. Together with the north and south of the Qinling Mountains, the city is also a mixed bag. I heard that someone has been eyeing the inn last night. Just in case, the shopkeeper of the inn has already refused foreigners. Only in this way can we maximize To ensure the safety of my Lord Hou in the inn.
