Chapter 233 Departure, Return to Beijing and Arrival
Time passed slowly, and the imperial edict in the capital finally arrived on this day. After He Wei and Zhang Sheng and others received the order, they gathered together again. As for the internal officials who came to pass the order, the treatment they deserved was naturally indispensable.
"Hahaha, Sanlang, I guessed it right. We are indeed still. Only you have the blessing to return to Beijing to be granted a title. Speaking of which, Sanlang, you must be at least a second-grade person this time." He Wei said
"Master, this is thanks to you. If it weren't for you, how could I have the chance to make such a contribution?" Zhang Sheng said
"Hey, Sanlang, don't say that, you have to be successful yourself. If you can't do it yourself, you can't catch me even if I give you a chance, so don't underestimate yourself. You did a very good job this time, and I'm quite satisfied with you." He Wei said
"I'm going to say goodbye, so many of us are still here? Can't you give us some face?" Qin Yuan said
"Hey, I'm you Xiao Qin, are you talking about mine? Forget it, Saburo is about to leave after the imperial edict is completed. We will all gather together tonight. Even if we see Saburo off, it will be considered a celebration for us." He Wei said
When the others heard this, they applauded. They were actually unwilling to stay here. After all, Zhang Sheng made great contributions this time. Seeing that he was at least promoted to two levels when he returned, how could they not be jealous? Although they would not lose their composure, they still felt uncomfortable.
It was precisely because Qin Yuan saw this that he would take this matter over by making jokes. After Qin Yuan finished speaking, He Wei had already realized that what he did this time was indeed inappropriate, so he just took advantage of the situation to get down.
That night, the generals of the southwest gathered together. During the meal, the generals who had no chance to make great contributions naturally took the opportunity to fight with Zhang Sheng in turn. Zhang Sheng knew that he would not have thought about it tonight, so he had already prepared to lie down and go back.
It was soon the afternoon of the second day. Zhang Sheng woke up in a daze and found himself on his bed, and there was a beauty lying beside him. When he looked closely, he saw that it was his Fangfang baby.
Zhang Sheng sat up in a daze, then got off the bed and walked to the table, picked up the teapot on the table and poured it down. The moment the cold tea entered the mouth, Zhang Sheng felt that he was much more energetic, and at the same time he swore in his heart that he would never drink so much wine again in the future.
Zhang Sheng's movement naturally woke Fangfang up. Seeing that his official lord had already risen, Fangfang also quickly got up and said, "Why did you drink so much wine yesterday, official?"
"Hey, aren't you happy to win the battle? Yesterday, the imperial edict was issued. Your Majesty asked me to return to Beijing to be enfeoffed. Isn't I more than happy at this time? But why are you just getting up now, baby?" Zhang Sheng said
"Your official, what do you think? Isn't it all your fault for getting up so late? You changed your mind last night and kept going until dawn before going to bed." Fangfang said
"Is that? Oh, baby, lie down and take a rest. After all, we have to continue tonight? You are not strong enough. It is easy to delay things at that time, and that will be a big problem." Zhang Sheng hurriedly said when he heard this.
"Oh, you are so evil, you are so angry in broad daylight. How can you do this like you in broad daylight? But you said you are going back to Beijing, then?" Fangfang said.
"Oh, baby, don't worry. When I returned to Beijing, we naturally left together. What's there to worry about? What's the mess in your little head? Why am I willing to leave you here?" After Zhang Sheng finished speaking, he stepped forward and hugged Fangfang in his arms.
In the next few days, Zhang Sheng was so busy that he was not stuck in the ground every day. He first went to the camp to have a vacation for Jianzhang. After all, he was going back soon. He had to bring some things back when he came out. Then there were various banquets, and he had to have fun when he came back in the evening.
Every day is busy, and seven days have passed in a flash. It is finally time for Zhang Sheng and the others to set off. In addition to Zhang Sheng who returned to Beijing, there are Gao Tai and his son, Duan Zhengchun and his son, as well as their families.
They had already prepared for this matter, because in the previous imperial edicts, there were rewards from Gao Tai and Duan Zhengchun, among which Gao Tai was named Anle Gong, while Duan Zhengchun was named Huanle Gong.
They were still very satisfied with this result. At least the people from the Gao family were satisfied. As for whether Duan Zhengchun was satisfied or not, it was unknown.
Anyway, the two of them received the imperial edict on the surface and then returned to Beijing with Zhang Sheng. It is worth mentioning that when the two families left, they brought their property with them. The emperor specifically instructed them not to search the residences of the two.
As for the mansion behind the capital, the emperor has already arranged it. If it were the houses of important officials of the dynasty in the past, they were very satisfied with this. After all, they have already reached this point, and it would be great to keep their family property.
He Wei and the others watched Zhang Sheng go further and further, and then they all went back one after another. After all, Dali is in a mess now, but there are still many things to be done? They want to be alone as two people.
At this time, in the carriage of the Gao family's father and son, the father and son were discussing the future.
"Chong'er, we will probably be inseparable from the capital of Qi in the future, so our temper will change in the future. After all, we are not here in Dali this time. If you can tolerate things, you must not act irritably." Gao Tai said
"I know Dad, don't worry, my son knows the importance of it. It's actually good to suppress us. If Qi really came to help the Duan family, I'm afraid we have already landed now, so how can we live next." Gao Chong said
"Jong'er, you can understand it. In fact, we don't have to worry too much. After all, your sister is still with Zhang Sheng. Judging from her attitude, she will be able to officially pass the door after returning to Beijing. We have a backer in the capital." Gao Tai said
"By the way, when it comes to sister, that person won't cause trouble for us, right? After all, there are some things happening this time?" Gao Chong said.
"Of course he will cause trouble for us. After all, if he can hold up such a great shame, he would not choose to cooperate with us. But isn't we Zhang Sheng there? So there is no need to be afraid of him. After all, Zhang Sheng's situation in Qi State is very special."
"So no matter whether it is him or his two or two brothers, oh, now there are three brothers. Zhang Sheng can hide if he can, so as long as your sister is going to go straight, we don't have to worry too much." Gao Tai said
Coincidentally, at this time, the father and son were also discussing what happened next, but the atmosphere on the carriage was not as good as the ones in the Gao family's father and son.
"Father, are we just accepting our fate? If we arrive in the capital of Qi, we will never have a chance to come back. And if they attack us, then we will have no room for resistance? " Duan Yu said
"Yu'er, my father asked you, can we save our lives if we don't go to the capital of Qi? Is there room for resistance?" Duan Zhengchun asked.
After hearing what his father said, Duan Yu stopped talking because although he was unwilling to admit it, he knew that his father was right. At present, the father and son did not have much room to resist. Whether they were alive or dead depends on their mood.
Seeing that his son stopped talking, Duan Zhengchun understood that this was understandable, so he continued, "Yu'er, remember, from now on, you must call me father, and don't call me father again. We are now living under someone else's roof, so be careful in everything."
"It would be good if people like us who are destroyed in the country can survive. Zihan's real man never competes for a while, so he must hold back after arriving in Qi State. No matter what happens, he must endure it. Everything is to save his life."
"Father, oh no, father, don't worry. My son understands that sooner or later we will return to our hometown. Even if we can't come back, there will be my son and grandson. I believe that one day our Duan family will definitely come back." Duan Yu said
After hearing this, Duan Zhengchun nodded with relief. Then the father and son said nothing and just stayed quietly in the carriage. At this time, Zhang Sheng had no time to care about what the prisoners of the two families were thinking. He was thinking of his son at this time.
When the child was just born, Zhang Ling asked someone to write a letter to send it to the southwest, so Zhang Sheng knew that his son was born. At this time, he was thinking about what name his son should be called.
He was still thinking about his wife and the treasures in the yard. He wanted to fly back with his wings, so he didn't have the heart to care about what others were thinking. After all, what could they do if they thought about it? It was just a delusion after all.
No matter what they want to plan, it has no use. Even His Majesty has the final say on how long they can live. What can you do if you want more?
Time passed day by day. After a long journey, Zhang Sheng finally returned to the boundary of the capital. Looking at the distant walls of the capital, Zhang Sheng felt a sigh in his heart that he was finally back.
Zhang Sheng asked Niu Manzhi to bring Jianzhu Camp back to the camp first, and then he took Zhou Dun and other personal soldiers to slowly rush towards the city gate. At this time, the city gate was extremely lively, because today His Majesty issued an order to ask the adult princes in Beijing to come to the city gate to welcome Zhang Sheng.
This is a precedent for the Tianzheng Dynasty. I have never done this before, but the ministers didn't say anything. After all, this is a contribution to expanding territory, and it is different from the usual contributions. Such a great contribution is reasonable even if His Majesty personally welcomes it, let alone just a prince.
The most eye-catching thing at this time was of course the four dragons participating in the battle for the throne. At this time, the four of them stood in a row, waiting for Zhang Sheng to return, but the four of them were in different moods at this time.
The sixth prince and the three princes were naturally hated, while the fifteenth prince was happy. After all, Zhang Sheng is now a person on his side. With such great contributions to his ability, he also has a gleam on his face.
At this time, Zhang Sheng had already seen the lively scene at the city gate. He was still surprised to see so many people greeting him. However, when he welcomed him in such a big scene, the reward would definitely be great at that time.
The four princes were the ones who were leading Jian. Zhang Sheng dismounted and walked slowly like the city gate, which made the welcome satisfied. It seemed that Zhang Sheng knew the right way, so he dismounted and walked over early.
Zhang Sheng slowly walked to the four princes and said, "Since Zhang Sheng, please see Your Highness the Fifteenth Highness and your Highness."
Everyone thought differently after hearing Zhang Sheng's words, but they were not too surprised. After all, Zhang Sheng is the Zhang Sheng they remember, so they didn't find it strange at all. This is indeed something that Zhang Sheng can do.
The four princes and other princes naturally rushed forward to greet each other, but they were not sure what they were thinking. Zhang Sheng didn't care about this. He was thinking about going home to see his son as soon as possible, so he didn't care about these things.
After some greetings, Zhang Sheng finally got relieved. He first went to the Ministry of War to hold an errand, and then went back to his mansion directly. When he arrived at the door, he saw Xin'er with his own treasures waiting for him at the door.
Zhang Sheng immediately stepped forward and said happily, "Madam, hurry up, let me see our son, you don't know. Since I received my father's letter, I said I was looking forward to it day and night, and I wish I could put my wings on my feet and fly back."
"Officials, don't worry, our son is still sleeping now. Can you just wear this armor to see our son?" Xin'er said
"Ah, hahaha, I'm too anxious. Let's go back now. By the way, this is Gao Fangfang. I'll be from our mansion in the future. You can find a yard for her to live in. I'll tell you later." Zhang Sheng said
Xin'er didn't have any unhappy expression after hearing this. After all, when she entered the house, there were already several in the mansion, so she didn't care about adding one more. Now that she has a son, the most important thing now is to raise her son well.
As for how many women the officials have, what does it have to do with themselves? I have already thought about it a long time ago, right? Counting all over the capital, which is not the case in the house of a wealthy family?
But when Zhang Sheng saw that his wife had no reaction at all, he felt a little uncomfortable. So this person was just unsatisfied and always thought that his wife was well-educated, but after she really got her wish, she wanted her to be jealous again.
After shook his head and stopped these messy thoughts, Zhang Sheng entered the mansion. After washing up, he followed his wife to his son's room with a refreshed look. When he arrived, the little guy was awake.
Seeing him coming in, he was not afraid at all, but instead stared at him with wide eyes, which made Zhang Sheng very happy. He went forward and picked up his son, and then said, "Good boy, it looks like a material for war, and he is not afraid of people at all. Did the lady give his son a nickname?"
