After the guard guarding the door called out that His Royal Highness the Prince had arrived, Xu Yunyan stood up and looked at the door.
He saw Li Chengqian walking in at first sight.
Although he was wearing the armor of an ordinary soldier, Xu Yunyan could still recognize him after having been with him for so long.
Li Chengqian didn't care about the doubts among the civil and military officials about his appearance in the armor of an ordinary soldier, and just strode into the courtyard.
But before Xu Yunyan could be polite to him, a soldier came in behind him, and the gatekeeper shouted fearfully.
"General Cheng sent his eldest son Cheng Chumo to express his condolences."
"General Qin Huaiyu..."
"General Chai..."
This moment made everyone present even more unexpected.
The Crown Prince is here, but before they know it, all the sixteen generals who have heirs are here.
Just when they were looking at this scene in front of them and were scared, the registration call came again.
"Lord Changsun..."
"Master Fang..."
"Master Du..."
Representatives of civil servants came hand in hand. The descendants of the top civil and military officials are here. This is going to heaven!
There are so many people with status and status paying money to offer sacrifices. In such a scene, the whole hall except the emperor, who is the core of the highest power, does not appear. This is a scene that will only appear when the emperor dies due to changes in the country. All civil and military officials respectfully presented it.
After this group of people representing different forces, different official positions, and different statuses came to visit, Xu Yunyan was so excited that he kept saluting to them and then made an impassioned speech here.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has traveled a long way and it is an honor for the general to come from Chang'an. But what kind of identity is the wife of a certain family? How can I have the trouble of His Highness the Crown Prince coming in person?"
Xu Yunyan was trying to dissuade Li Chengqian here because he was afraid that Li Chengqian would be at the forefront because of his incident. But Li Chengqian smiled disapprovingly.
"Master, look at what you said. You are my master after all. This is my master's wife. Shouldn't the younger generation be able to come and see the master's wife after she dies? What's more, he became like this just to save my grandfather."
This Li Chengqian can be said to never stop talking without surprising his words. This Li Chengqian's grandfather is the current Supreme Emperor.
Xu Yunyan's wife became like this because she was trying to save the Supreme Emperor. She deserved such courtesy from the royal family.
But after Li Chengqian and Xu Yunyan met each other, the heirs of the military generals and top civil servants following him also shouted to Xu Yunyan to honor Master Li as his disciple.
"Master, we met again. I didn't expect to see each other again after we parted in Chang'an, but we looked like this. I am very heartbroken after the death of Master's wife, so I came here to express my condolences."
Xu Yunyan looked at the many young masters who were sincerely talking to him here, and gave them a fist.
"Thank you for your hard work. Li Ying would like to thank all the generals and lords again."
Xu Yunyan was treating them politely here, but the entire Qiongzhou City felt like it was facing a formidable enemy.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince suddenly arrived in Qiongzhou City, which was something no one expected. If something really happened here, the entire Qiongzhou City would not be able to withstand Li Shimin's anger.
After His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came to Qiongzhou with the nephews of the civil and military ministers, the condolences to Mrs. Li came to an end, and there were still a few people rushing here in the north.
To the north, Tian Shao and his daughter were hurrying.
"Dad, is it really appropriate for us to be walking slowly like this? We shouldn't hurry up. If the other tribes have gone and we haven't arrived yet, we may not be laughed at by them."
Tian Shao looked at his daughter's irritable look and smiled at her.
"Daughter, you don't have to worry. Our relationship with him is different from other people. They may go to express their condolences because of their status as General Li, but we go to express our condolences as family members. We must be well prepared. All the sacrifices and other preparations have to be brought.
Tian Shao was twirling his fingers and talking about what he should prepare. Tian Yue, who was talking the same thing again and again, kept rolling his eyes.
"Okay, okay, Dad, whatever you say will be whatever. I won't say any more. Everything depends on you, Dad."
When the Tian family's father and daughter slowly walked towards Qiongzhou with the things they should bring, in the residence of General Zhongwu, there were three levels of imperial guards on the inside and outside.
Li Chengqian led a group of second-generation officials to surround Xu Yunyan here.
"Master, do you really not think about it? If you just take your wife back to Chuzhou like this, you still have to guard her tomb? There is no such thing, right?"
After Li Chengqian said this, other noble disciples Cheng Chumo, Qin Huaiyu and others also kept comforting Xu Yunyan here.
It's okay for you to take her back because it's a long way, but you still have to stay with her for a while. What's going on?
This is really embarrassing. There has never been such a reason.
Xu Yunyan saw that what they said was very reasonable, but she still said it to them.
"You are right. There is no such truth. It's just that Jingjing and I have known each other for a long time. Everything that Jingjing suffered in the end was because of me. I have to comfort her. I can't let her be here. Are you going to keep scolding me down there?"
"But Master, there are still many places in the entire Tang Dynasty that need Master, especially the matter that Master is currently engaged in. Master cannot be allowed to leave easily."
Li Chengqian was talking to him here about what Xu Yunyan was doing now.
Contributing to the Tang Dynasty is what they should do, and they should not care about personal gains and losses.
Although Li Chengqian said it very tactfully, Cheng Chumo next to him really followed Cheng Yaojin and did things that surprised everyone.
"General, if we don't say anything else, let's just say that this order cannot be fulfilled. It seems inappropriate to leave without authorization. In ancient times, Dayu controlled floods and never entered his house three times. What about now? The task has not been completed, and you want to leave?"
Although what Cheng Chumo said made Xu Yunyan a little embarrassed, others couldn't help but change their faces when they heard this.
But it's a good way to put it.
After these big guys expressed their opinions, Jiang Fangguo came forward next to him and was finally able to persuade Xu Yunyan here again.
"General Li, you don't have to take your wife back to her hometown. You can find a place with the best feng shui in Qiongzhou, a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters. Didn't you always say you want to settle down here? This lady went to Chuzhou. Aren't you even more separated from heaven and earth when you are here?"
What Jiang Fangguo said shocked Li Chengqian.
"What? What did you just say? My master wants to settle down here?"
Jiang Fangguo, who was talking and persuading Xu Yunyan, was suddenly yelled at by Li Chengqian and was so frightened that he fell to his knees with a plop.
"Your Highness, please spare your life. Your Highness, please spare your life."
Seeing that Li Chengqian was about to reprimand Jiang Fangguo, Xu Yunyan waved his hand.
"Your Highness, it is not because I want to settle in Qiongzhou, but because I have already come to Qiongzhou, and it is my blessing to be able to contribute to Qiongzhou.
It's just that the tasks have been completed now. Even if they are not completed, the matter of how to complete the task has nothing to do with the innocence of everyone in Zhechong Mansion. Whether I am here or not has little to do with it. "
"Master, do you have to leave?"
Li Chengqian asked decisively after hearing such a sentence.
Xu Yunyan nodded.
Li Chengqian didn't speak at this time, and everyone was waiting for Li Chengqian's final decision.
But Li Chengqian said this leisurely.
"Master wants to leave, but as a loyal general, you are not allowed to leave the county where you are stationed without the emperor's orders. Moreover, the emperor probably will not agree to your departure, master. Even if you resign, you will not agree. .
Now our country, the Tang Dynasty, is threatened by the Turks. If the master leaves like this, our country, the Tang Dynasty, will lose another good general.
Master, does he think that our Tang Dynasty should be bullied by others? "
The people who heard Li Chengqian's words breathed a sigh of relief. This was a force to suppress Xu Yunyan, and Xu Yunyan looked at Li Chengqian and smiled.
"Your Highness, there are many good generals in the country. One more of me is not more than the other. Even if I leave, won't I still have General Su Lie and Su Dingfang? He is completely better than me and can make up for me."
