Not long after Chang Sui left, he immediately ran over.
"Sir, the housekeeper said that a group of officers and soldiers from the Fubiao Battalion came outside. They are waiting outside our house right now."
After hearing this, Liao Wenguang opened his eyes, stood up from his seat, and said, "Let's go to Datong Town with me."
With that said, he walked towards the door of the house.
"Ah! Go to Datong." Chang Sui was stunned for a moment, then said bitterly, "Master, Datong is now a den of thieves, we can't go!"
It has been more than half a year and almost a year since Datong fell into the hands of Tiger Flag. Taiyuan Prefecture and Datong are both in Shanxi Province, so the news is naturally well-informed. It can be said that everyone in Taiyuan Prefecture knows about such a big thing happening in Datong.
Liao Wenguang stopped, glared at his long follower, and said, "What are you afraid of? Master, I just came back from Datong Town not long ago. I'm going to be fine now. Please hurry up and follow me."
After saying that, he walked out of the door.
The chief attendant in the room had a sad face and hurriedly followed.
The carriage was already waiting outside the gate of the mansion. As soon as Liao Wenguang came out, he immediately saw the soldiers of the Fubiao Camp guarding the door. The leader was an acquaintance. He was the commander-in-chief who went to Datong Town with him last time.
"Young man has met the eldest master." The boss outside the mansion stepped forward and saluted.
Liao Wenguang saw that they were all acquaintances and said in a good mood: "Okay, let's get on the road!"
The bench beside the carriage has already been prepared.
Liao Wenguang walked over and stepped on the bench to get on the carriage, followed by his entourage who boarded the carriage together.
The general leader walked in front of the team to clear the way, and the carriage walked in the middle of the team. Soon the team left Taiyuan Fucheng and headed towards Yanmen Pass.
This time when he went to Datong Town, Liao Wenguang was in a good mood. He was not as stressed as the first time. He was always worried about what would happen when entering Datong, and even doubted whether he could come back from Datong alive.
From the last experience, he knew that Liu Heng was not like ordinary bandits who only knew about destruction but not production, and Liu Heng's governance of Datong was more like the government's governance of local areas.
Not only did it not cause any damage, it actually ensured the stability of Datong. It was more like what a qualified regime would do.
This is naturally not a good thing for Ming Dynasty, but for Ming Dynasty officials like him who go to Datong Town, their lives are guaranteed.
The team left Taiyuan Prefecture, passed through Xinzhou and Nao County, and arrived at Daizhou.
After passing Daizhou, there is Yanmensuo and Yanmenguan, and ahead is Shanyin County in Datong.
"Sir, why don't you stay overnight in Daizhou City tonight and be on your way tomorrow morning?" the boss asked as he came outside the carriage.
Liao Wenguang lifted the curtain on one side of the car window and said to the manager outside the carriage: "Find a better inn to spend the night instead of going to the inn."
"I'll make the arrangements, little one." Mr. Ba agreed and left on horseback.
Even if there are good restaurants and inns in Daizhou City, you can find them just by asking, so the convoy changed its direction and went to an inn on the street next to it.
The chief escort accompanied Liao Wenguang into the inn, and the carriage was handed over to the driver to the backyard of the inn.
Chang Sui opened three guest rooms in the inn.
As for the ordinary soldiers in the Fubiao camp, they either slept in Datong bunks or spent the night in the stables with the animals. Only the leading soldiers were given a guest room.
Chang Sui gave the innkeeper a piece of silver and asked him to deliver the food directly to the guest room.
The innkeeper also knew that a high-ranking official had come to his inn, so he called several of the inn's clerks and took turns guarding outside Liao Wenguang's room, and then listened to support.
"Sir, the magistrate of Daizhou has come to visit you." Changsui came to Liao Wenguang's room to report.
Liao Wenguang blew the hot air from the bowl in his hand and said in a calm tone: "Tell him that I will be gone and let him spend more time on the people."
Chang Sui got the reply and withdrew.
Returning to the first floor of the inn, the chief attendant walked up to Daizhou Zhizhou who was waiting here. He bowed first and then said: "My master has traveled all the way and is a little tired. He has rested. Cai Zhizhou should please come back." !”
"Please also tell Councilor Liao that I will visit you again tomorrow morning." Cai Zhizhou hooked his hand with the person next to him.
The servant on the side came up and took out a piece of silver and stuffed it into Liao Wenguang's hand.
Chang Sui accepted the money, smiled on his face, and said, "Don't worry, Cai Zhizhou, the small talk will definitely reach you."
"Thank you." Cai Zhizhou said with a smile, and then left the inn with others.
Chang Sui picked up the money and turned back to Liao Wenguang's guest room on the second floor.
The kitchen prepared the meal, and the innkeeper asked the waiter to deliver the best meal in the store to Liao Wenguang's room.
The long attendant waited on Liao Wenguang for dinner.
With the long attendant accompanying him, Liao Wenguang felt that it was much more convenient for him. Unlike the last time, he had to do everything himself. The soldiers who followed him did not know how to serve others at all.
After finishing the meal, Liao Wenguang drank the tea brought by his long attendant from his home.
The water for making tea is specially brought by the innkeeper from the sweet water well in the city.
when! when! when!
While I was drinking tea, there was a knock on the guest room door.
"Go and see who it is?" Liao Wenguang pursed his lips.
Chang Sui quickly came to the door of the guest room and stretched out his hand to open the door.
"Then send troops to suppress it. Didn't Jinzhou just have a great victory? Since we can beat the slave thieves, wouldn't it be easy to deal with a Liu thieves?" Wei Zhongxian said coldly.
After hearing this, Gu Bingqian's face became even more bitter.
"You are the chief minister of the cabinet. It is up to your cabinet to come forward and send a troop of troops from Liaodong to suppress the rebellion. Don't just send more than 10,000 troops to do the job like last time." Wei Zhongxian said.
Gu Bingqian said with a bitter look on his face: "Official Wei may not know something. The so-called great victory in Jinzhou is just a whitewashed achievement in Liaodong. In fact, it is not a great victory at all."
"Didn't you say that we defeated an army of 100,000 slaves and bandits in Jinzhou?" Wei Zhongxian raised his eyebrows.
Gu Bingqian said with a bitter look on his face: "The slave thieves indeed surrounded Jinzhou with a large army. They only tried it out for a while and then withdrew. I am afraid that the defenders in Jinzhou City did not even have a hundred people to kill the enemy."
"Aren't you fooling the emperor? The officials in Liaodong are so brave. They actually deceived the court into killing everyone who deserved it." Wei Zhongxian had a look of hatred on his face.
He himself thought that Liaodong had really achieved a great victory, but he did not expect that the so-called victory of Jinzhou was completely a false claim of military exploits from all over Liaodong and did not exist at all.
Gu Bingqian said: "It cannot be said that it is a completely false report of military exploits. The army of slaves and thieves indeed besieged Jinzhou City, and they did not break through Jinzhou City and retreated. It can only be said that it is an exaggeration, and there is some discrepancy in the number of enemies killed."
"Hmph, one exaggeration actually made the imperial court generously award rewards. It's really a good trick." Wei Zhongxian said bitterly.
