Chapter 301: Admired by all people

Midnight.

In Jingzhao Yin Prison, the identity of Wei Yuanqing's family was found out.

The jailer found Qin Chuan that night and reported, "Master Qin, I found out that they are the family members of Wei Yuanqing, the general guarding the city at the south gate."

"According to their confession, Wei Yuanqing asked them to go back to their hometown overnight to visit relatives, saying that someone in their hometown had passed away."

Qin Chuan sat in front of the document, squinting his eyes, his expression dim and unclear under the light.

Why would a general guarding a city with a thousand men send his family out of the city overnight? Even if someone passes away in your hometown, you shouldn’t rush it overnight.

He is a military commander, how could he not understand the rules? Doesn't he understand why the city gates are not opened at night?

Tomorrow the emperor is about to leave the city to meet Wei Qing's army. At this time, the family of the general guarding the city fled Chang'an overnight...

Qin Chuan took a breath of cold air and said to his left and right: "Come here! Go to Tingwei's Mansion!"

"Sir, the Tingwei Yamen Office has been closed for a long time."

Qin Chuan said: "Then go to the Zhao Mansion to find Mr. Zhao!"

"Here!"

……

Zhao Yu served as a lieutenant of the Han Dynasty at that time, responsible for the arrest and examination of serious cases such as rebellion and rebellion.

Wei Yuanqing is a general guarding the city with thousands of people, and he is also considered a high-level officer in the military general system. He cannot be tried by the county government, and the Tingwei Mansion needs to arrest him personally.

There is still plenty of time.

Zhao Yu had fallen asleep at this time. The slave outside woke him up, which made Zhao Tingwei very unhappy. He asked impatiently with a straight face: "Why is a county magistrate coming to see me?"

"It's so late, what can't we talk about tomorrow?"

The house servant said hurriedly: "My lord, this is the magistrate of Jingzhao Yinqin County."

Zhao Yu said angrily: "I don't care whether he is the magistrate of Qin County or Niu County Magistrate!"

"The father-in-law of Zhenbei Hou Weining."

Hearing the steward's reminder, Zhao Yu's expression softened a little, and he said, "Let him wait in the middle hall."

Qin Chuan waited anxiously for half an hour before Zhao Tingwei came over bleary-eyed and asked Qin Chuan: "Master Qin... Zhao is really too sleepy."

"What do you mean when you come to me so late at night?"

Qin Chuan informed Zhao Yu about the matter hastily, and Zhao Tingwei asked suspiciously: "What next?"

Qin Chuan said: "Your Majesty will leave the palace tomorrow. At this time, there will be sudden movements among the thousands of gatekeepers in Nancheng. I am worried about the danger. I beg Mr. Zhao to arrest Wei Yuanqing quickly to review the case."

ill.

What big commotion can a thousand people defending the city make?

Do you still want to rebel?

Do you have this ability? Will the Imperial Guards listen to him? Who is he?

Zhao Yu nodded and said: "Early tomorrow morning, when the government office is on duty, I will order someone to ask about the situation."

Qin Chuan said eagerly: "I can't wait any longer. If something unexpected happens tomorrow, the consequences will be disastrous."

Zhao Yu said: "You don't need to worry about that. Okay, go back."

Qin Chuan said angrily: "Master Zhao! You don't want to eat without a corpse!"

Zhao Yu frowned, glanced at Qin Chuan coldly, and said with an unkind expression: "Master Qin, don't you think that you are the prospective father-in-law of Zhenbei Marquis and start teaching me how to be an official?"

"You haven't taken the position yet! Wait until you take the position before ordering me to do things!"

Of course Qin Chuan knew the world of people in the officialdom, but he was really anxious because the other party was indifferent, so he said these words without restraint.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Zhao. I am really impatient. Please pay attention to it no matter what, Mr. Zhao."

Zhao Yu said impatiently: "I know, you can go back first." "Please, Mr. Zhao..."

Zhao Yu said with a cold face: "I don't want you to look too ugly, so go back!"

Qin Chuan took a deep breath, clasped his fists and said, "Okay! I hope nothing happens. If something happens, Mr. Zhao will have to think carefully about whether you can handle it!"

"Bastard!"

Zhao Yu pointed at Qin Chuan and said, "Get out!"

Do you really think that since Zhenbei Hou Weining is your son-in-law, you can be so arrogant?

The Marquis of Zhenbei is the Marquis of Zhenbei, and you are you. I don’t dare to offend the Marquis of Zhenbei, but why don’t I dare to offend you? If a low-level official can't handle it, how will he get along in the officialdom in the future?

……

Early the next morning.

The rain pattered in the sky still did not stop.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty changed into a black and red auspicious cloud dragon robe today. The Qin Dynasty believed that he was a water virtue, so the dragon robe was mostly black. The Han emperor believed that his dynasty was a fire virtue, and gradually began to change from black to red, but A complete transformation has not yet been achieved. The dragon robe is still mainly black with red as a foil.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty attached great importance to this welcome. The great victory in Hexi made Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty so excited that he gave the triumphant generals the highest courtesy.

Not only did he leave the palace in person, he also ordered Taichang Temple to set up various ceremonies three miles outside the south city of Chang'an to welcome Wei Qing's army all the way.

The emperor drove six fat and strong horses outside the Weiyang Palace.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sat on the buchu, and Jianzhang Yingqi personally carried the buchu for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Behind him were Zhuang Qingzhai, Dong Zhongshu, Sang Hongyang and other courtiers.

After leaving the Weiyang Palace, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty transferred from Buhu to a six-horse carriage, and built a camp of 100 forbidden troops to guard the Emperor's Yuhu in front and back.

On the main road of Chang'an Avenue, soldiers from various government offices and the Forbidden Army separated the people on both sides from a distance.

Thousands of people were on both sides of the road, watching the emperor's journey from a distance, and they knelt down and shouted long live the emperor.

This was the first time that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty left the palace in such a formal name. Although the people could not see the appearance of the emperor, their respect for the emperor and their patriotism arose spontaneously, and they deeply surrendered to the rule of this emperor.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty squinted his eyes and was in a good mood. He raised his hand and waved to the people on both sides.

The emperor's team moved very slowly, leaving enough time for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to get close to the people.

……

Wei Qing's team set out from Yangling early this morning at a very fast speed. By noon, they had arrived five miles away from Chang'an.

It was still raining at this time.

Wei Ning sat in the carriage with his eyes closed to rest. Huo Qubing gently pulled Weining's sleeves and said, "Little cousin, stop sleeping and look outside."

Wei Ning curiously opened the sedan curtain, and saw dense crowds of people on both sides of the official road, holding umbrellas and looking at the returning team with respect.

Huo Qubing said with a smile on his face: "My uncle has created such a grand event!"

Wei Ning could see that in the ranks of the common people on both sides, many young men had red eyes with jealousy and clenched their fists. They were probably thinking that one day they could be like these people and perform extraordinary feats outside the Great Wall!

Wei Qing, Gongsun Ao and others sat on horses and walked at the front of the team, returning the solemnity of the people on both sides.

Earth-shaking shouts suddenly rang out, and the people on both sides shouted at the top of their lungs: "Congratulations to the general on his triumphant return!"

"Congratulations to the general on your triumphant return!"

A general died in a hundred battles, a strong man returned after ten years... Wei Qing's eyes were a little hazy.

This earth-shattering triumph was obtained by the lives of many brothers and sisters.

They will never see this again.

Gongsun Ao said to Wei Qing: "General, look ahead..."

Wei Qing raised his eyes and suddenly froze.
