Settled in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 155 Are You Ready?

Taking the official ship, I went all the way down the Fenshui River. After four days on the boat, I finally arrived in Puzhou. When I arrived in Puzhou, there were people sent by the saints to meet me.

When they arrived, someone had come in a light boat to report in advance that the pier in Puzhou had already been under martial law, and only officers and soldiers in Zuowuwei costumes were there.

Li Gang and Xue Lang disembarked together, and immediately a veteran in armor and helmet greeted him: "Li Shangshu and Xue Zhiyi are polite, and this is Qian Jiulong, the right military guard. By the order of the saint, I am waiting for you here."

General Youwuwei is a military officer of the third rank, Xue Lang said: "Xue Lang, my officer, has met General Qian, and General Lao."

Men these days are used to growing beards, and it is estimated that there are very few men who are not used to it like Xue Lang.With a short gray beard, Qian Jiulong said politely: "Xue Zhiyi is polite. Qian has admired Xue Zhiyi's name for a long time, and now he finally sees him. It's really better to meet him than to be famous. Xue Zhiyi, please get in the carriage. It's important, you have to catch up."

"It doesn't matter, the officer knows."

"Wow~!"

Just as they were exchanging greetings, a loud dog barked, startling everyone.This is the elated roar of the seasick steamed head!

Xue Lang couldn't help smiling, and apologized on behalf of Ai Chong: "I'm sorry, General Qian, Mantou is not used to taking a boat, and I'm a little seasick, so when I set foot on land, I couldn't help being a little excited."

Qian Jiulong glanced at the steamed bun and asked, "Is this a spirit dog? No wonder the barking sound is so amazing!"

Even Qian Jiulong knew about it! ?This speed of transmission is simply amazing!Xue Lang expressed his admiration, and said with a smile: "General Qian, I appreciate the award."

Qian Jiulong said: "A certain family has specially prepared a carriage for the spirit dogs. I heard that there are four spirit dogs. A certain family has specially prepared four carriages. Would the spirit dogs be willing to get on the carriage?"

What the hell!

Xue Lang felt a little bit pained!He has mixed feelings for so long, but he is only at the same level as Baozi and the others, so he feels inexplicably sad.With a sore heart, he still had to smile: "Thank you General Qian, General Qian is thoughtful, I'll ask them."

He turned his head and asked, "Mantou, Baozi, this General Qian has prepared a carriage for you, do you want to sit?"

"Wang!"

Baozi yelled and ran away. Mantou ignored him and ran away.Soymilk and fried dough sticks wagged their tails at Xue Lang, wanting to run briskly, looking quite at ease.

Now, without Xue Lang's explanation, Qian Jiulong could understand it, but when he understood it, he was even more shocked: "I have heard about the deeds of the spirit dog, and now I can see it with my own eyes. It is really rare to see something that understands human nature." .Since the spirit dogs don’t want to get on the carriage, let’s withdraw the carriage.”

"Here!"

The soldiers around him immediately went to deliver the order.Xue Lang got into the carriage, Baozi and the others ran and played beside the carriage, enjoying the down-to-earth comfort.

In other words, Qian Jiulong and the others didn't show surprise when they heard Baozi's name. It seems that Baozi's name has already spread, and it seems that the surprise period has passed.I don't know if I can find a few friends who share the same path.

Well, Xue Lang's thinking has diverged again!

It was noon when we arrived at the wharf, and the city of Puzhou was crowded with people, and there were government servants standing guard beside the road to prevent anyone from colliding with the team.Xue Lang opened the curtain of the carriage to look out, and there were onlookers on both sides of the street.

"Brother officer, which official is passing by?"

Those who were so curious dared to ask the guards.The officer said: "This is the team that Wei Zeguan entered the capital to offer auspiciousness to the saints."

"Auspicious? How auspicious?"

The person who asked the question looked curiously at the baskets of thatch-covered sweet potatoes on the cart, which could be vaguely seen.The officer said: "I heard that a high-yield grain has been discovered. This is the fruit of my pilgrim's benevolent government. I heard that the sage will spread it to the world. Maybe in the future there will be no more hungry days!"

"Is this true?"

"It's absolutely true! Our magistrate has received an official document from the imperial court and read it out to us. The saint said that this is a great thing. Not only can we wait for the people to know it, but we also need to inform the people more, so that the whole world celebrates this great event." .”

"Ah! If this is true, it is a great thing!"

"What nonsense! It's not just a great thing, it's proof that my Tang Dynasty is favored by heaven and earth. The Tang Dynasty is ordered by heaven and will soon prosper!"

The audience, no matter men, women, old or young, traffickers, or scholars, were all talking about it. The same thing is that everyone's face was full of joy, and it seemed that they had a lot of hope for the future.

Xue Lang put down the curtain silently, and looked at the roof of the carriage calmly——

it has started!

……

They hurried all the way, and did not set up camp to rest after dark, but rushed all night, and finally arrived at another pier at noon the next day, and boarded the official ship to Chang'an.Qian Jiulong leads troops to escort by boat!

As for taking the boat again, Mantou's eyes were far away, and he didn't resist. Xue Lang only called it, and boarded the boat by himself. .Xue Lang was so moved that he rubbed its dog's head and never laughed at it again.

Because it is going upstream, the speed of the boat is naturally not as fast as that of Fenshui.Xue Lang asked He Xiang for an embroidery needle, bent a hook, took a fishing rod, and sat on the deck to fish.

"Brother, you can't catch fish like this."

Jiang Lin walked over and smiled.Xue Lang was just in a good mood, looking for something to pass the time, and said with a smile: "I know you are not good enough after hearing it. The joy of fishing lies in the process of fishing."

"Brother is really clever."

Jiang Lin complimented him jokingly.Xue Lang raised his head and laughed, without braggadocio, he beckoned Jiang Lin to come over, and asked, "After we arrive in Chang'an, we will be able to meet our younger siblings. I don't know what kind of women younger siblings are? Come, tell me."

"Ok!"

Jiang Lin sat down beside Xue Lang, and told him about his beloved woman——

In the past few days, the closer he got to Chang'an, the more unstable Jiang Lin became, and the number of times he dangled in Xue Lang's eyes was increasing day by day.Xue Lang saw it, but didn't point it out. Whenever he had a chance, he asked him to talk about his newly married daughter-in-law, so that he could have a channel to vent his thoughts about his wife. If he can understand, he is only newly married!
Xue Lang felt that since he traveled to ancient times, he had gotten used to the mentality of a middle-aged person, so it's so frustrating!While complaining about himself, he will still help Jiang Lin relieve his miss for his new wife, so, man.

Xue Lang complained about himself ten thousand times!

"Brother, the fish is hooked!"

Probably because the fish in the river can't stand the boring life of two big men, so give them a break and have the courage to dedicate themselves.

"Wait……"

Just as Xue Lang was about to talk about walking the fish, he saw that Jiang Lin was already holding a fishing line made of silk thread, and grabbed a big fish that was as long as an arm. Seeing the big fish writhing around on the deck, Xue Lang felt inferior again. ——

Well, Jiang Lin is a strong man with high martial arts skills, not a weak chicken like Xue Lang, the feeling of inferiority is really easy to say.You appeared like this without any precautions, in my world, you brought me surprises, I couldn't help myself...

"Xue Zhiyi is so skilled that he was able to catch fish during the boat trip. The fish would know that Xue Zhiyi was overjoyed and came to celebrate."

Qian Jiulong's voice sounded behind him.Xue Lang quickly turned around and saluted: "General Qian came by coincidence, just caught a fish, come to eat fish together later?"

Qian Jiulong said: "Thank you Xue Zhiyi for your kindness, but Chang'an is coming soon, please Xue Zhiyi to prepare, disembark with a certain family, and wait for the saint to be summoned."

Xue Lang turned around and raised his head, looking into the distance, he could vaguely see the appearance of the city——

Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Empire!He, Xue Lang, is finally here!
