When the mission arrived in Tongzhou, it was a rainy dusk.

Chu Huan thought that Xu Congyang, the censor of the left capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, was still guarding Tongzhou. After arriving, he found out that Xu Congyang had returned to the capital a month ago. Originally, the grain and grass that was transported to the northwest via Tongzhou had already turned around and headed southeast. Direction shipped over.

The supply of grain, grass and supplies to the northwest was originally raised from Xishan Road and Anyi Road. These two roads have reached the limit of supply, and the follow-up can no longer be continued. The supplies left in Tongzhou are also turned to the southeast.

After Zhao Guangqing, the prefect of Tongzhou, was murdered for rebellion, the position of magistrate of Tongzhou is still vacant until today. Qiao Mingtang, the governor of Xishan Road, succeeded Xu Congyang and temporarily took over in Tongzhou.

Qiao Mingtang was able to become a viceroy, so naturally he didn't do nothing for nothing, and his subordinates were quite capable.

When the Northwest War first broke out, Xiguguan had not yet been blocked, and 10,000+ people poured in from Guanxi. When these people arrived in Tongzhou, they were intercepted by officers and soldiers, and they all settled in Tongzhou.

In order to prevent the transportation route to the northwest from being obstructed by refugees, the refugees were all moved to the refugee area specially designated by the government. Originally, the order in the refugee area was always chaotic. After Qiao Mingtang arrived, he specially selected Jing from among the refugees. The strong men form the security team, and there is no need to use regular troops, lest the refugees feel dissatisfied. The security team maintains law and order, and they can also get paid, so they are naturally very happy.

Although there was always a shortage of food, Qiao Mingtang tried his best to ensure that the refugees could fill their stomachs.

When the mission arrived in Tongzhou City, Qiao Mingtang had to briefly introduce the situation in Tongzhou to Xue Huai'an. Naturally, he did not expect that Chu Huan had been in Beijing for less than a year. The mansion, even his own faction, was very kind to Chu Huan. During the conversation, the governor of Xishan Road suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said to Chu Huan: "Master Chu, I almost forgot an important event. The first few days Wei Tong Zhi came to Tongzhou to bring a piece of news related to you."

"Oh?" Chu Huan was taken aback.

Qiao Mingtang said: "Wei Tongzhi didn't know that you were going to Xiliang as an envoy. He sent someone to the capital, only to find out that you had already been sent as an envoy. Wei Tongzhi knew that Tongzhou was the only way to enter Xiguguan, so he sent someone to report to Ben. The official said hello, if you rush back to the capital through Tongzhou, you must go back to Yunshan Mansion."

When Chu Huan heard this, his heart sank.

Of course he understood that the Wei Tongzhi that Qiao Mingtang was talking about was Wei Tianqing. Wei Tianqing sent people to Beijing to look for him, and even sent people to Tongzhou to pass on a message to him.

After he entered Beijing, Wei Tianqing took the initiative to take the responsibility of taking care of Chu Huan's family. If something had not happened at home, Wei Tianqing would not have made such a big move.

Thinking of this, Chu Huan became very anxious, and hurriedly asked, "Governor Qiao, is there... is there something wrong with my family?"

Qiao Mingtang said: "Lord Chu, don't be too anxious. Wei Tongzhi also said that it seems that Master Lingtang is not in good health, so...!"

Chu Huan's heart tightened even more, and he immediately looked at Xue Huai'an, who had already frowned and said, "It's about Master Lingtang, all good filial piety comes first, Master Chu, if that's the case, you should go back to Yunshan Mansion to have a look first."

"Just the mission?"

"You don't have to worry about this. With my official and General Xuanyuan, nothing will happen." Xue Huai'an said: "You can't delay returning to Beijing to return to your order. Master Chu, you should go back and have a look. If Master Lingtang is in good health, you should hurry up Return to Beijing and return to your command, otherwise... I will explain it to you, and my sage will certainly understand your difficulties."

Qiao Mingtang also said: "Your Majesty Chu, don't worry, I will also make an excerpt and explain it to His Majesty for His Majesty Chu. His Majesty is already a kind and filial person, so he will definitely not blame him."

Chu Huan bowed respectfully to the two of them, bid farewell to them, and did not leave immediately, but called Sun Zikong and Lang Wazi, went to the side alone and said: "Zikong, Wushuang, I want to go back to Yunshan Mansion, you guys Follow the team back to the capital directly. Zikong, Wushuang is not familiar with the capital, but you are, after returning to the capital, you take them back to the mansion and settle down properly."

The grandson asked in a hurry: "Master, how do you arrange for those two girls? Are they also arranged in our house?"

Chu Huan thought for a while, then sighed: "Arrange them in the mansion too, and I will deal with everything when I go back. After returning to Beijing, find a doctor to take a good look at Bai Xiazi's injuries, that monk, find a separate yard Settle down, Zikong, you feed him yourself every day, he is unconscious, and he can still be fed with porridge and water."

Sun Tzukong nodded and said, "Master, don't worry, I understand."

"Wushuang, you follow Zikong back to the capital, and those camel guest brothers will stay with you in the mansion first. Remember, after returning to Beijing, until I go back, stay in the mansion and don't go anywhere , let alone cause trouble." Chu Huan said with a stern expression: "Whoever you cause trouble, after I go back, don't blame me for turning your back."

Sun Zikong nodded, the wolf boy thought for a while, and made a gesture, which meant that he wanted to go back to Yunshan Mansion with Chu Huan. Chu Huan understood it, shook his head and said: "No, I will finish the matter soon , you can go back to Beijing with peace of mind." He took out the banknotes from his bosom, distributed a few to each of Sun Zikong and Langwazi, gave them careful instructions, and then found Xue Huai'an again, and bid farewell to him.

Xue Huai'an comforted him, and Xuanyuan Shengcai selected ten skilled guard soldiers from the guards to accompany Chu Huan to Yunshan Mansion to ensure Chu Huan's safety.

Chu Huan thought about it for a while, but he didn't refuse, but the service of the Guards was too conspicuous. He and the ten guards soldiers all changed into casual clothes, worried about family affairs, and left without delay.

Along the way, people are like tigers, horses are like dragons, and they don't delay. Chu Huan is anxious, and Wei Tianqing is eager to find himself. It can be seen that Chu Li's health must be very bad, otherwise Wei Tianqing would not be so aggressive.

In particular, Chu Huan knew in his heart that Chu Li's physical condition has not been very good. He only hopes that the old man can hold on and at least see him once.

Before arriving at Yunshan Fucheng, there was a heavy rainstorm. Chu Huan was still riding fast, galloping in the rain, and the ten guards who were able to endure hardships and stand hard work followed closely behind.

This rain was indeed heavy. At dusk that day, Chu Huan finally arrived at Yunshan Prefecture. After half a year away, Yunshan Prefecture remained unchanged and stood tall.

Before the city gate was closed, Chu Huan and others rode over on horseback. The guards at the city gate saw the ten or so riders riding aggressively in the rain. Immediately, a soldier raised a gun and shouted, "Stop the horse, what are you doing?"

A guard soldier beside Chu Huan yelled sharply: "Get out of the way!" They are the most elite soldiers in the empire, and they are also the most noble soldiers in the empire. Ordinary local troops, they never pay attention to them.

The horses flew like flying, and the soldiers saw this, afraid of being trampled by the horses, they hurriedly moved away, Chu Huan and his party came through the door like lightning.

The gatekeepers were all taken aback. Someone already shouted, "Is it a bandit?" Waved his hands and said, "Let's chase after him!"

One person said in a deep voice, "What are you chasing? Didn't you see that the one in the front is wearing official boots, this is the official's casual clothes. If anyone is not afraid of death, just go after him!"

When he said this, everyone dared not make a sound.

The rain was much lighter, the wind was light and drizzle, and Chu Huan and his party were already drenched. Passing an inn, Chu Huan reined in his horse, ordered the soldiers not to follow, and threw a gold ingot to the guards around him. Ask him to take people to settle down in the inn now.

The guards were sent to protect Chu Huan. They were all there to escort Chu Huan home. Seeing that everyone insisted, Chu Huan could not refuse, so he continued to move forward. Fortunately, it was raining and there were no pedestrians on the street. Thinking of seeing her family soon, Chu Huan became excited, and she was already praying in her heart that everything at home must be safe, and there must be no misfortune.

A familiar street appeared in front of him, Chu Huan slowed down his horse, followed by two cavalry in a row, and when he reached the door, Chu Huan got off his horse and walked forward, the door was closed tightly as always , so familiar, he hesitated for a while, finally raised his hand, and patted on the door. At first, no one answered, Chu Huan then increased his strength, and patted again. The familiar voice that has always been imprinted in my heart came: "Who is it?"

Chu Huan said loudly: "It's me!"

"Who are you?" Su Niang's voice came again, as if she couldn't think that Chu Huan would come back for a while: "It's raining heavily, and there is no one at home!"

Chu Huan was amused, and said loudly: "Sister Su, it's me, I'm Erlang!"

Immediately, Su Niang's scream came from inside the house, and Chu Huan could even clearly hear Su Niang's running sound, and soon, he heard the door "creak", the door opened a gap, and a familiar pretty face appeared in the gap In the middle, those beautiful eyes were wide open, seeing Chu Huan, she was stunned for a while, then her face showed a look of extreme surprise, she opened the door all of a sudden, stood pretty inside, stared at Chu Huan in a daze, and soon , but saw that Su Niang's nose was sore, her eye circles were red, and she bit her red lips, but she didn't know what to say for a while.

At this time, Chu Huan even wanted to hold Su Niang in his arms to express his miss, but he would not do this rationally. Seeing Su Niang wearing a royal blue skirt, her upper body was a purple one. In autumn clothes, her face is like a lotus, her lips are a little crimson, her skin is much whiter and greasy than before, her skin is rosy, her hips are plump and her waist is slender, her beautiful figure is like a graceful undulating wave. Noma's simple atmosphere did not disappear.

"Er...Erlang, you...you are back...!" Su Niang had already seen the group of cavalry outside the door, each of them was tall and powerful, and she thought that Chu Huan came to Beijing to be a master , I don't know if this group of people are Master Chu's subordinates, and they suddenly became a little nervous.

Chu Huan turned around and said, "Brothers, you have worked hard, go and rest first!"

A cavalryman said: "My lord, we leave two people to wait for orders!"

Chu Huan shook his head and said, "No need, you can stay in the previous inn. If there is a need, I will find you!"

All the soldiers looked at each other without daring to say anything, they all cupped their hands together: "Follow the order!" They turned their horses' heads one after another, and galloped away amidst the neighing of the horses.

Su Niang looked at the street with her head, and suddenly felt a gaze looking at her. She turned her head to look, but saw Chu Huan's eyes looking at her. She felt a little fever on her face and asked, "Erlang, who are you?" People are...all your servants?"

Chu Huan said with a smile: "I can't be called a servant, but I do obey my orders now."

Su Niang stuck out her tongue, and couldn't help saying: "Erlang, you are really amazing." But she didn't know that when she spit out her tongue like this, it was charming and charming.
