Datang: Starting from a fortune-telling stall, Wu Zetian was suddenly abducted

Chapter 216 A major event that benefits the country and the people

After deliberation for a long time, they finally finished speaking.

After Guo Xiaoke considered it again, he nodded with satisfaction.

At this time, a subordinate came to report that all follow-up matters regarding Liu Sanshan's remains had been handled, and the relevant procedures were handed over to Yuan Shouwei.

Guo Xiaoke looked at the address of Liu Sanshan's home and said:
"The Imperial Master, a nephew of the British Duke Li Ji, named Li Sisheng, is going to Liaodong City to serve as the chief registrar in the near future."

"Counting the days, it should have arrived. I will write you another letter. If you need anything, you can go to him."

Yuan Shouwei did not refuse, but asked curiously:

"The nephew of the Duke of England, why is he only going to be a master book?"

Guo Xiaoke said with a smile:

"Go over first to familiarize yourself with the environment, and then prepare to take over the position of county magistrate."

"That county magistrate has served two terms in Liaodong City and should be promoted."

"I heard that the county magistrate is still unwilling to leave. He said it is because his wife is in poor health and needs to take snow clams for a long time."

"Considering his situation, His Majesty may arrange a promotion for him nearby."

After a while, the letter was written.

Guo Xiaoke handed the letter and the 'silver medal' for accommodation at an inn to Yuan Shouwei, and explained:
"If you stay at the inn with this 'silver medal', they will give you better arrangements."

Yuan Shouwei was also polite, and after thanking him, he kept the things close to him.

Seeing that it was dinner time, Guo Xiaoke also invited Yuan Shouwei to have dinner, and then Yuan Shouwei said goodbye and left.

After returning to the guest house, Yuan Tiangang and others had just had dinner.

Yuan Shouwei called a few people over and said:
"I have completed the procedures for the remains of the three mountain brothers and are ready to leave tomorrow for the Shanyu Protectorate."

Wu Fu asked in surprise:

"Don't go back to Chang'an first and go directly to the Shanyu Protector's Mansion?"

Yuan Tiangang also frowned and said:

"Yuan Shouwei, at this time, the weather in Shanyu's Protector's Mansion is freezing and it is difficult for people and horses to move."

"Why don't we go back to Chang'an first and then go there after the New Year?"

Yuan Shouwei knew that everyone had misunderstood him, so he explained:

"It's my fault that I didn't make it clear."

"What I mean is that I am alone. Calculating the time, I should be able to return to Chang'an before the year."

After hearing this, Wu Yan was immediately unhappy, pouted and said:
"What do you mean, Yuan Shouwei?"

"Do you think we are a burden to you?"

Zhong Qing hurriedly nodded again and again, expressing deep approval.

Yuan Tiangang shook his head and said:
"If you don't have enough time, it's thousands of miles away from the Western Region to Shanyu's Protectorate. Even if we work hard and work day and night, it will still take more than a month."

Yuan Shouwei saw that Wu Fu was angry, so he quickly smiled and coaxed:

"Without you during this trip to the Western Regions, I would have been doomed in Loulan Ghost Town."

"How can you be a burden?"

"Besides, even if you are a burden, I am willing to take such a beautiful burden wherever I go."

Although Wu Yan knew that Yuan Shouwei was coaxing her, but after hearing this, he still couldn't help but the corners of his mouth curled up.

Then he analyzed rationally:
"Uncle Tiangang is right, you don't have enough time."

"Why don't I go with you after the New Year."

Yuan Shouwei saw her smile, and he breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile:

"I am a stargazer. I have a way to travel quickly, and I can travel thousands of miles in a day."

"I'm counting the days. It takes about 20 days to go back and forth, just in time to celebrate the New Year with you."

"Besides, Uncle Tiangang also said that it's really inappropriate for someone like you who has no name or status to always follow me."

Yuan Tiangang nodded after hearing this, and in turn comforted Wu Fu: "This is indeed the truth."

"Furthermore, Yuan Shouwei is just going to see off the Sanshan brothers on their last journey. I think nothing will happen to him. If we go together, it will delay the journey."

Wu Fu was a person who could take things up and let them go, so he nodded in agreement.

Yuan Shouwei then took out the Fire Spirit Bead from the package and handed it to Yuan Tiangang:

"Master Tian, ​​please take the Fire Spirit Pearl back."

"Put this ray of luck back into the star building, so that the places in Kucha will be stable."

Yuan Tiangang did not take the fire spirit bead, but looked at Yuan Shouwei and said:

"Shanyu and Xiyu are two completely different weather conditions."

"You should take this fire spirit bead with you first. If nothing else, it can at least protect you from the cold."

Yuan Shouwei smiled, pushed the Fire Lingzhu in front of Yuan Tiangang and said:
"Thank you, Brother Tiangang, for your concern."

"You see my body could use this."

"Besides, this Fire Spirit Bead is proof that we have eliminated the Locust God. Without this, how will you explain it to His Majesty when you go back?"

Yuan Tiangang felt that what Yuan Shouwei said was reasonable, so he also smiled and put away the Huolingzhu.

Wu Fu, who was standing by, took out the water spirit bead, handed it to Yuan Shouwei, and said:
"Then take the water spirit bead."

"I won't be able to use this thing for the time being."

"But you always have an extra layer of security when you hold it."

Yuan Shouwei thought about this, so he took it with a smile and said:
"Okay. Then I will return it to you when I return to Chang'an."

But now that Yuan Shouwei is leaving, Yuan Tiangang and the others no longer want to stay here.

After discussing with them, they also decided to leave for Chang'an tomorrow.

After the discussion was completed, everyone chatted for a while, and Yuan Tiangang and Zhongqing went back to the room first.

After Wu Fu and Yuan Shouwei lingered for a while, they reluctantly returned to the room.

The next day, the sun rose.

Outside the east gate of Yining City, a large group of people were already standing bustling. Judging from their behavior, it was obvious that they were military personnel.

The person in front of him was Guo Xiaoke, the Protector of Anxi, and behind him were Qiao Shiwang, Jiang Xin and other generals.

The four people opposite him were Yuan Shouwei, Yuan Tiangang, Wu Fu, and Zhongqing.

It turned out that they came to see Yuan Shou off today.

Guo Xiaoke took Yuan Shouwei's hand and said with emotion:
"National Master, the heavens and the earth are vast, and your Majesty is the greatest."

"When I was in Kucha, I reported to Your Majesty that I wanted you to stay in the Western Regions for a longer period of time. After all, the remaining forces of Tubo, Western Turks, Tuyuhun, and Eastern Turks have not been completely wiped out."

"But His Majesty can't bear to leave you, so I have no choice but to let you go back. To be honest, when you leave, I feel a little unsure."

Yuan Shouwei felt Guo Xiaoke's sincerity and replied with a smile:

"I know the general's thoughts. I also know the enemies you mentioned. There will definitely be opportunities to cooperate in the future."

"I don't know much about military affairs, and I can't express my opinions."

"It's just that you must pay more attention to the matter of Bai Diehua. It is a major event that will benefit the country and the people."

Guo Xiaoke said reluctantly:

"Master, you have the power to reach heaven and earth, and everything you predict will come true.

"I have taken note of this instruction and will definitely go all out to promote Baidianhua."

At this time, Qiao Shiwang, who had said goodbye to Yuan Tiangang, also came over, raised his hands to Yuan Shouwei and said:

"National Master, please allow Qiao to say a few more words, and I will take the people of Gaochang to thank you again for your life-saving grace."

Yuan Shou returned the courtesy and said:

"Captain Qiao is serious. It is my duty as a Taoist to help the world and save people, so there is no need to thank you."
