The Record of Swordsmen in the Late Sui and Early Tang Dynasties

Chapter 836 820 Five: Farewell to Kaifeng Mansion, the two arrive at Fengdeng Mansion
Seeing that the two were about to leave, the old head of the Mo family led the whole family to send them out. He was very grateful to the two and just said some New Year greetings.

The two of them walked out of Mo's house and went straight to the Fengkai mansion, until the two of them disappeared, then the old Boss Mo led his family back to sleep.

Duan Wuji and Tie Niu walked on the empty street, the two of them felt an indescribable sense of relief!

Back in Feng's mansion, I saw that the prefect of Kaifeng was still sitting in the room waiting for the two of them!

When the Kaifeng magistrate saw the two of them coming back, he hurried up to greet them.

"You two imperial envoys, the thieves who ran amok in our house, I didn't expect to catch them so soon!

Everyone said how powerful this kid is, but I didn't expect him to be easier to catch than that little chicken in your hands!

What has actually happened? "

Duan Wuji laughed when he heard this.

"Master Zhifu, why have you forgotten a folk saying, isn't it said that a cat can kill a mouse!

Although this kid is powerful, he will be honest when he sees us.

The two of us are the mouse hunters!

To be honest, it didn't take any effort for us brothers to catch him!

Neither of us knew why. "

The prefect Bai laughed out loud.

"You two imperial envoys, you are too good at talking.

To be honest, I thought you two wouldn't be able to solve this case in ten and a half days!Unexpectedly, it broke in three or two days.

The case is settled, and I have nothing else to do in this residence.

You have nothing to do, just stay with me for a while.

I can't do without you here, what do you think? "

Duan Wuji shook his head.

"Master Zhifu, we brothers thank you for your kindness.

Now that the matter here is over, we two brothers will leave tomorrow.

Isn't there still a few robbers in Songshan Mountain?
Tomorrow we will go to Songshan Mountain and capture the robbers there, then we should go to Hebei.

The emperor gave us one year to inspect several provinces. If it took a long time for each province, it would take three years to complete the inspection. "

The prefect Bai grinned when he heard this.

"You two imperial envoys, it is said that your work is quite busy!

It's not easy enough to get from one place to another. "

Tie Niu grinned and said, "Who said it wasn't! Do you think that official meal is so delicious!

Don't people look at how majestic we are, but they don't know that our bowl of rice is not so delicious!

Our Great Tang Dynasty has been built in such a short few years, and our buddies can be said to have worked hard!

Only our buddies know the hard work in it!

alright!Let's stop talking about these useless things!
I think we should go to bed early, we have to get up early tomorrow, otherwise how can we hurry! "

The Bai Zhifu listened and nodded.

"Since this is the case, then I won't bother you, you can rest in peace!
I'll go back and order the kitchen to prepare breakfast for you!Since you're leaving tomorrow, I'll show you the farewell bar! "

Duan Wuji shook his head.

"I said, Lord Zhifu, what are you doing for that matter! Why don't you just skip the practice wine!"

"Hey! I said, Mr. Imperial Envoy, you came to my mansion for two days and then left!

I don't even have a farewell wine, so I can't justify anything!

Could it be that the two imperial envoys still want others to gossip about me in the future!
I still understand these pick-up etiquette, as an officer! "

Duan Wuji shook his head helplessly.

"Hey! Since this is the case, then you can figure it out. After breakfast tomorrow, we will leave as the leader of the army!"

"My lord, you should rest now!
I will take my leave as an official, let's meet again tomorrow morning! "

After finishing speaking, the prefect Bai turned around and left.

Duan Wuji and Tieniu went back to the house, went to bed, and fell asleep in a short while.

The next morning, the two of them got up early, and just as they walked out of the yard, the prefect Bai came over.

"You two imperial envoys, you were busy for most of the night last night, why did you get up so early today!

Your spirit and vigor cannot be admired!

Two adults, let's go and follow me to eat.

All the officials are waiting for you! "

Duan Wuji laughed and said, "Why, why are all the officials here for breakfast again!"

"Oh! My lord imperial envoy, you are all leaving today, how dare they not come over!
It is a crime to despise the imperial envoy, who doesn't know about it!

To put it bluntly, last night, I didn't dare to sleep all night!

These things, I can't make a fuss! "

Tie Niu blinked his eyes.

"I said, Mr. Zhifu, just because we left today, you didn't sleep all night, and we two brothers are deeply sorry!

Mr. Zhifu, we brothers and I will leave after dinner, and we dare not trouble you again! "

"Hey! I said the imperial envoy! You have come to my small place, how dare I not do my best!

As long as the two of you think that I have not taken good care of you, I will burn high incense. Two imperial envoys, if there is any place where I have not taken good care of you, you must take care of it!

I hope you two will return to the court, and you must give me some good words!

As for whether it's hard or not, it's not a big deal! "

Tie Niu grinned.

"Master Zhifu, do you need to say this, we are officials in the same dynasty, we have to take care of each other!

In your memorial to the imperial court, don't say anything bad about our brothers! "

The prefect Bai smiled wryly after hearing this.

"Master Imperial Envoy, where are you talking about! Even if you lend me eight guts, I dare not speak ill of you!

Speaking ill of you, what difference is that from courting death! "

Duan Wuji smiled.

"As long as the magistrate doesn't speak ill of us, we buddies will be content.

Mr. Zhifu, since you insist on giving us the farewell wine, then let's go!
Don't make those officials wait for the two of us. "

The three of them walked straight into the hall talking and laughing, and saw that all the officials, big and small, had come. When those officials saw Duan Wuji and the others coming in, they all stood up. Salute!

Duan Wuji's face sank when he saw it.

"My colleagues, what are you doing! As long as you treat our two brothers as friends, then don't salute!

If word of this gets out, it should be said that our two brothers are putting on airs of the imperial envoy! "

When these people heard this, who would dare to bow down!These people glanced at each other, and then said in unison: "Master Duomeng Imperial Envoy will not give up, I just obey the order!
Knowing that the adults are leaving our place today, our hearts are all warm!My lord, hurry up and take your seat! "

Duan Wuji and the others also know that if they don't sit, none of these people dare to sit!

Therefore, the two of them were not polite, they picked two upper seats and sat down.

When Bai Zhifu saw that everyone was seated, he quickly said loudly: "Everyone, the imperial envoy is leaving today, let's raise the wine bowl today and do it for him!"

After hearing this, the officials said in unison: "I wish the imperial envoy a smooth journey and a bright future."

Duan Wuji grinned when he heard this.

"Dear colleagues, since everyone said so, we brothers would like to thank you.

Everyone sit down!Sit down and let's eat together!After eating, we two brothers should be on the road. "

Duan Wuji and Tie Niu are both big eaters, they don't care about others, they are full of food and drink!

The two didn't put down their chopsticks until they were full.

Duan Wuji and Tie Niu came out from the hall, and walked straight to the outside of the yamen!
Those officials came out one after another, everyone's horses outside were already prepared, Duan Wuji and Tie Niu got on their horses, immediately rode their horses and came straight to the west gate.

Those officials rode on horses and sent them out one after another.

Those soldiers of Duan Wuji were waiting outside the city, after Duan Wuji joined his soldiers, he immediately bowed to those officials.

"My colleagues, sending you a thousand miles, there will be a farewell.

Duan is very grateful to everyone for sending me out of the city!

Let's leave it at that, and if we have a chance in the future, let's work together again! "

After finishing speaking, Duan Wuji and Tieniu led their soldiers and rushed down west by north!

After more than a day's journey, these people finally arrived at the location of Songshan Mountain, which is located in the northwest of Henan Province and within the territory of Dengfeng Prefecture.

The folk customs of this place are simple and honest, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. Then Shaoshi Mountain is at the foot of Songshan Mountain.

The famous Shaolin Temple is here.

The reason why Duan Wuji and the others went to Kaifeng mansion first was that they had their own ideas.

That is to solve those easy things first, and make time to stay in this place for a few more days.

Knowing that the imperial envoy is coming, the magistrate of Dengfeng Prefecture led a group of officials of all sizes to pick him up.

This pick-up has covered more than ten miles. If there is a business trip, do they dare to come and pick it up!

Duan Wuji followed them into Dengfeng City, Duan Wuji saw the situation in this city, it was incomparable with Kaifeng Mansion or Luoyang City!

Not only is this city small, but the population in the city is also relatively small, the dilapidated streets are like Farbi!

Duan Wuji said with a smile: "Sun Zhifu is also a prefect. Compared with Kaifeng City or Luoyang City, your place is not a little bit worse!"

The prefect of Dengfeng smiled wryly.

"Master Imperial Envoy, what can be done about this! This place is poor, and the lives of the people are also miserable!

There is no other way for me to be transferred to this place as the magistrate!Luoyang Mansion and Kaifeng Mansion are both big cities, and the surrounding land is relatively fertile. What do you think my place can compare to others!
well!People can't compare with others, people are more popular than others!

Although they are all magistrates, the magistrate in that place is a master, and the magistrate in my place is a grandson!

Imperial envoy, let's not mention these sad things, let me go to the government office with me!
Mr. Liu, take all these soldiers of the imperial envoy to the barracks! "

Mr. Liu next to him nodded his head.

"Yes! Your Majesty the Prefect! I'll just obey!"

That Zongbing Sun waved at the soldiers brought by Duan Wuji and the others.

"Brothers, let's go, follow me to the barracks to rest!"

Duan Wujiniu turned his head and said to the soldiers: "Master Zongbing has spoken, I don't need you here anymore, just let him go!
If there is anything, I will find you again! "

Those soldiers listened to the imperial envoy's orders, and immediately followed the chief soldier, turned their horses and left.

Duan Wuji and Tieniu followed the officials to get off their horses in front of the government office, the guards had already taken away the horses they were riding.

After Duan Wuji and the others entered the yamen, Duan Wuji sat down on the front seat, and Tie Niu sat beside him.

As soon as the officials saw that the two imperial envoys had sat down, they quickly knelt down and paid homage to the imperial envoys!

Duan Wuji waved his hand.

"My colleagues, everyone must be polite. Get up and sit down quickly. The imperial envoy has something to discuss with you!"

When the officials heard what the imperial envoy said, they stood up one after another, and sat down on the chairs on both sides according to the size of their official positions.

Duan Wuji looked at these people and said: "Prefect Sun, have the robbers in Songshan captured them?"

"What are you catching? If you can really catch them, you will be strong! These boys are extremely skilled in martial arts, and it's hard to catch each of them! Although we have caught them many times, every time we have returned without success! !

Sometimes, a few dead bodies can be brought back!

well!Speaking of this matter, it makes me so worried!
It is also a great misfortune for our place to have such thieves in this place!

Imperial Envoy, aren’t you here?This matter is up to you to decide for us! "

Tie Niu listened and looked at Duan Wuji.

"Brother, what can you do about this?"

Duan Wuji thought for a while and said: "There are three of us, there are only two of us, if we just go, I'm afraid we will suffer!

Our buddies have been enemies for a long time, so we buddies can't do things that suffer!

If we capsized in the gutter, wouldn't that be a joke through the ages!

Since they speak so much of these people, we buddies have to pay attention!

I plan to go to Shaolin Temple tomorrow morning, let Shaolin Xun send a few masters, and together we will capture this thief and eliminate the evil for our place. "

"Well! It's better to do it this way! That's good! Then let's go there tomorrow! We won't go to the Shaolin Temple for a long time!
We really should pay our respects to our master, the old man. I have missed him for such a long time.

Isn't there those thirteen stick monks in Shaolin Temple? Let them send us a few men, this thief can be caught!

Let's go out and buy something for them in a while!If you go there empty-handed, it will be somewhat difficult to explain! "

The prefect Sun laughed and said, "My lord, your method is better!

Isn't it just to prepare some gifts!How can you let yourself spend money on this!

Don't bother with this matter, let me do this matter!

Ordinarily our place is not far from the Shaolin Temple, if they come forward, I'm afraid this matter will be much easier to solve! "

Duan Wuji grinned when he heard this.

"If that's the case, I'll leave this matter to you, Mr. Sun.

Tomorrow morning we will go, you prepare some presents for them!

Ordinarily, this matter is also a public matter, and it should be spent in the treasury! "
