The first Taoist priest of the Tang Dynasty

If, in this half year.

Zhong Wei never thought that if he would come to see his second master, then he would probably have to collect the bodies of the two.

Of course Zhong knew about the two underground exits of Tiandizong.

The two were trapped, and no one sent a message, and no one knew when the clock would appear.

Li Zhu was also pinning his hopes on his disciples.

At least, before Yizhuo Zhong left last time, he said that Zhong should return to Tiandizong every six months.

Speaking of which, this is also out of Li Zhu's selfishness.

After all, when he reached his realm, it was only a matter of him poking away from the eighth floor.

If Li Zhu accidentally enters the eighth floor, if he can't control it and dies directly, at least he has a disciple who collects the corpse.

"Brother, then we have to ration our next food, otherwise, we won't be able to survive for long." After checking the stored food, Bo Xi said to Li Zhu worriedly.

"Oh, it's my fault too. I didn't store some food down there at the time." Li Zhu also regretted a lot when he heard about the food.

There are few people in Tiandizong.

Moreover, Li Zhu is often absent sometimes.

Therefore, this food is usually bought by Lizhu and put on it.

Below, there are very few of them.

Fortunately, there are still a lot of burning materials in the inner sect of Tiandizong, otherwise, there may not even be a chance to cook.

Afterwards, the two brothers stopped talking and meditated quietly.

Meditation is the only thing they can do at present.

The food is only enough for the two of them to last for half a year.

And it's still a meal for a few days.

If there is a clock here, then the situation is probably even more dire.

The two brothers and sisters hoped that Zhong could return to the mountain gate as soon as possible, so as to find out the situation of the mountain gate, and in this case, the two of them could be saved.

And this time.

Zhong was in Sandou Village, eating and talking with his family.

Most of the Zhong family members also have their own jobs.

As for the Zhong family, some women were also hired from the main family to manage it.

Fortunately, there are not many households in the Zhong family, otherwise, Zhong may not be able to help.

These fiefdoms with one's own family have people of one's own family to help manage them, which can be regarded as a field that does not flow to outsiders.

"Brother, can you let me go out? It's so boring to be in Sandou Village every day." After the meal, Xiao Hua pestered Zhong.

"Why are you bored? You don't stay with Mom and Dad, what do you want to do? You are so old now, it's time to learn some things about your daughter's house. You always want to run out, how will you get married in the future?" Zhong looked at his little sister and reprimanded him.

Although, Xiao Hua has learned something in the past two years.

After all, if you grow up a bit, if you don't understand anything, it will make your family feel big.

"Brother, my sister taught me how to read, and also taught me martial arts, but my sister always wants to go out to play." Xiao Wu ran over and made a small report.

"Go, take you to play every day, and even sue me, watch out for your ass." Seeing Xiao Wu making a small report, Xiao Hua immediately pretended to be angry.

Xiao Wu is also more than three years old and almost four years old.

Under Xiaohua's teaching, he has also begun to read.

Even, under Xiaohua's teaching, he learned some martial arts in a decent manner.

However, for Xiao Wu, it was just a trick for fun.

I'm too young, and I think it will take two or three years to lay the groundwork.

Practicing martial arts too young will hurt Xiao Wu instead.

"Small, how is your master doing recently?" Zhong Mugen sat on the side and asked.

"Master is not bad, and the health is also good." Zhong replied.

Just when Zhong was sitting with his family and talking.

The port of Jiangyin welcomed several ships.

Every boat has a very deep draft, and a little experienced fisherman will know that there must be an unknown amount of heavy loads on the boat.

When the officers and soldiers at the port saw these ships, they knew they had come back from Fusang, and they immediately brought their things over, ready to meet them.

When the first ship arrived in port, a general stepped down from the deck.

This person is Guo Ziyi.

"Empty all the personnel in the port, and don't prepare anyone near the port. In addition, let the Tongjun Mansion send people to meet them." After Guo Ziyi took the people off the ship, he loudly ordered to the port personnel stationed in the port.

With such an arrangement by Guo Ziyi, there must be important supplies to be transported off the ship.

An hour later.

What should be prepared has already been prepared.

Countless carriages have arrived at the port.

Even Changzhou's commanding army soldiers are on guard around them.

Guo Ziyi gave an order.

Boatmen, helpers and others began to carry boxes down from the boat.

Then put on the carriage.

"Inspector Li, I believe that you have read the imperial decree of the Holy Majesty. I will not say anything redundant. This batch of silver is temporarily under your custody in Changzhou. At that time, there will be an imperial decree to instruct you, and the ships I have still need Rush to Shangluo, and then transport it to Chang'an." Guo Ziyi was talking to a Changzhou governor surnamed Li.

"General Guo has worked hard, I have already received the imperial decree, please rest assured General Guo." Inspector Li replied with a smile.

Of course he knew about the silver in the Fusang Kingdom.

However, because this matter is kept secret for the time being, not many people know about it.

"Okay then, please ask Inspector Li to sign and seal after counting." Guo Ziyi waved to an official as he was doing business.

For this batch of silver ingots, only two ships were unloaded to Changzhou.

It is used to build Jiangyin's port docks, warehouses and other things.

There are a total of [-] silver ingots.

After the boxes on the two ships were unloaded, the rest of the ships, under Guo Ziyi's instructions, began to march up the Yangtze River.

After a month.

The boat arrives at the port of Shangluo County.

And this time.

The pier in Shangluo County has long been sealed off.

There are countless carriages and countless soldiers.

When the ship arrived, another mouthful of boxes was carried to the pier.

When the number of carriages reaches a certain amount, the loaded carriages will be rushed towards Chang'an in a batch of [-] carriages.

for days.

The boxes on the ship are finally unloaded.

Afterwards, a row of boats set off and headed back downstream.

After the last team of carriages headed towards Chang'an City, Guo Ziyi also got on a horse and followed the team back to Chang'an City.

at this time.

When the first batch of carriages entered Chang'an City, many people in Chang'an City were curious to watch.

"What is checked in this carriage? Why are they all packed in wooden boxes?"

"I've heard that it seems to be transported from Shangluo, and the carriages can be dispatched from Chang'an City to Shangluo County."

"Don't you know? Shangluo built a pier earlier, and it is estimated that these things were shipped from Shangluo pier."

"Don't guess, let me tell you, these are silver brought back from Fusang."

"Boom" sound.

When one of them said that the carriages were loaded with silver, the scene suddenly became chaotic.

This word is passed on to ten, ten to a hundred.

More and more people stopped to watch on both sides of the street.

If there were no soldiers along the street, maybe they would start the robbery directly.

Silver.

This is not copper coins.

And it's still a carriage, anyone who sees it will be moved.

And among these people.

Many people stared at the box on the carriage with their eyes shining.

"Master, I heard that the people from the imperial court who went to Fusang Kingdom really brought back a lot of silver, and they are escorting them back to Chang'an City." In a certain house, a middle-aged man was reporting to his master. reports.

"Really?" The master immediately jumped up when he heard Baiyin.

"Go back to the Lord's house. Seriously. I have already sent someone to investigate. I don't know exactly how many there are." The middle-aged man replied seriously.

"It seems that the imperial court really may know that there is silver produced in a certain place in Fusang country. The amount of silver transported back with such a big movement must be quite a lot. It seems that we have to take action." After hearing about it, the master began to think Liven up.

Such and such scenes were staged in many Lifangs in Chang'an City.

At this time, in a certain courtyard of Honglu Temple in the imperial city, people from the Fusang Mission also got the news.

"Did Tang really get back the silver from my Fusang country? Why didn't I know that my Fusang country owns silver?" After hearing the report from the visitor, Jing Sheng Yelang was also at a loss.

He didn't even know that Tang State sent troops to Fusang State.

In the past two years, he has been staying in Chang'an, keeping an eye on another mission of the Fusang Kingdom, and has never heard anything about Tang's sending troops to the Fusang Kingdom.

But today, he suddenly heard that Chang'an brought back countless carriages, and the carriages were all loaded with silver produced in the Fusang country, which made him a little confused about the situation.

As far as he knew, Fusang country was barren, except for some food production, there were basically few other things.

After the family heard the news, they started to act.

After the people from the two missions in Fusang heard the news, they also started to send people around to investigate.

now.

In the palace city, Li Shimin got the news half a month ago.

For this reason, the palace specially vacated a large hall to store the silver.

Li Shimin stood in the square of Tai Chi Hall, waiting anxiously.

As for Li Shimin's surroundings, the ministers in the court were even more anxious than Li Shimin.

"Report, General Guo Ziyi has arrived outside the gate of the palace city, and all the convoys are heading towards Chang'an City one after another, and the first batch of convoys have entered Chang'an City." A messenger rushed to Li Shimin to report.

"Quickly, invite General Guo to enter the palace." Li Shimin told Guo Ziyi that he was overjoyed when he heard that Guo Ziyi had arrived outside the gate of the palace.

As long as Guo Ziyi comes back, it means that the escort of Baiyin has been safe.

As for how much silver was escorted back this time, it has to be reported by the general.

"My subject, Guo Ziyi, has seen the Holy Majesty, and lived up to the grace of the Holy Majesty, and transported the silver ingots safely, and I ask the Holy Majesty to rule." Guo Ziyi bowed and shouted at Li Shimin as soon as he entered the palace.

"General Guo has worked hard. You are traveling thousands of miles away and floating on the sea. You are a hero of our Tang Dynasty. Please hurry up." Li Shimin said with a big smile as he tried to help Guo Ziyi.

"Thank you, my lord." Guo Ziyi hurriedly stood up.
