When the group returned to the Yongzhou City Mansion, it was already after dusk.

However, because of the summer, even though it was after dusk, the sky was still very bright.

And as soon as they arrived at the palace, someone came in a hurry.

"Little grandfather, there is an eight-hundred-mile rush from Chang'an City."

Hearing that there was an urgent arrival of eight hundred miles from Chang'an City, Qin Tian's expression suddenly tightened, and he hurriedly asked, "Where is the letter?" ”

"Here."

The subordinate handed the eight-hundred-mile urgent letter to Qin Tian, and after Qin Tian read it, his brows condensed.

The people next to him were a little nervous when they saw this.

"Childe, but what's wrong?"

"Brother Qin, what's wrong?"

Everyone looked at Qin Tian a little anxiously, and Qin Tian smiled bitterly: "The Holy Lord wants me to patrol the whole country, it seems that it is impossible to return to Chang'an City." ”

Qin Tian was a little unhappy, his son had just been born not long ago, and he hadn't been with him much, so he was brought to Yongzhou City.

originally thought that he could go back after solving the matter of Yongzhou City, but Li Shimin asked him to patrol the whole country, which was simply looking for trouble for him.

Qin Tian was unhappy, but Cheng Chumo and the others were excited.

"Patrol the whole country, so let's not be able to run around, that's cool." Cheng Chumo laughed excitedly, even more excited than getting a few good-looking goldfish.

It's really nice for them to be able to run around and enjoy the scenery of various places.

Qin Tian glared at him, but he could only nod: "Yes, we are going to run around." ”

After accepting the edict, Qin Tian ordered people to start preparations, since they were going to patrol the whole country, then they couldn't stay in Yongzhou City, they had to go to other places.

Early the next morning, Qin Tian left Yongzhou City with his soldiers and horses, and when he left, there were not many people who were reluctant to give up on them, after all, the case of Yongzhou City was solved, and it didn't seem to have much impact on many ordinary people.

What Feng Yi really wants to control are only those powerful and wealthy businessmen, and he doesn't care about ordinary people.

It was a little deserted when they left, but Qin Tian didn't pay much attention to it.

"Childe, where are we going now?"

Luo Huang asked curiously, Qin Tian thought about it, and said, "Let's go to Jiangnan." ”

Jiangnan is not much developed now, and it cannot be compared with the prosperity of later generations, but the beautiful mountains and rivers in Jiangnan are more obvious than those of later generations.

At this time, there are some places in Jiangnan that are still quite rich.

Hearing that they were going to Jiangnan, Qin Huaiyu and Cheng Chumo immediately became excited.

"Okay, okay, go to Jiangnan to play, it should be very interesting there."

"Don't keep worrying about playing, Gongzi went to Jiangnan, he was ordered by the saint to patrol the whole country, and he had to investigate and record the affairs of various places, and he would show it to the saint after returning to Beijing."

Everyone said this, and then set off for Jiangnan.

It will take at least a month to get from Yongzhou City to Jiangnan, and although Qin Tian said that their destination was Jiangnan, the states and counties they passed along the way also had to stop and investigate, so the time it took them to go to Jiangnan might be longer.

It was the height of summer.

Qin Tian and the others came to a small county town called Mengliang County.

This small county town is surrounded by mountains, and there are only a few small roads leading to the outside, so the traffic can be said to be very inconvenient.

However, in places with many mountains, such counties are actually very common.

Many places with mountains and rivers are basically surrounded by mountains and rivers around the prefecture and county, and this is the case in Jiangnan and Shuzhong.

Under normal circumstances, the people here live in the mountains, and it is relatively safer to live here.

Although Mengliang County is small, the environment is good, when Qin Tian and others arrived, Wu Liang, the county commander of Mengliang County, was already waiting at the gate of the city with the officials of the county government.

Wu Liang was a thin person, he looked a little unattractive, standing in the crowd, if it weren't for his official mansion to mark his identity, Qin Tian wouldn't have noticed him a little.

"Wu Liang, the county commander of Mengliang County, meet Grandpa Qin."

Wu Liang stepped forward and saluted, Qin Tian waved his hand, and said: "Lord Wu doesn't need to be polite, this official is ordered by the emperor to patrol the whole country, if you have something here, this official will stay, if there is nothing to do, you will leave in a day or two." ”

"Yes, yes, little grandfather, please enter the city quickly."

Qin Tian brought people into the city, and the city was relatively a little more prosperous, but it couldn't be compared with Chang'an City, and even with many small cities near Chang'an City.

Although this Mengliang County is large, the population seems to be small.

"Lord Wu, how many people are there in your territory?"

When he returned to the post house, Qin Tian suddenly thought of this question, so he asked casually.

Wu Liang smiled bitterly and said, "Back to the little grandfather, we have about 20,000 people here. ”

More than 20,000 people is really not much, Qin Tian pursed his lips and said: "Now that Datang has just established the country, it is the time when people are needed. ”

"Yes, yes, don't worry, the little grandfather will definitely encourage childbirth in the future."

Qin Tian nodded, and then continued to walk towards the post house, this question, he really just asked casually, and he didn't take it too seriously.

The post house is not very big, and it looks a little simple, and when Wu Liang invited Qin Tian in, he was a little embarrassed and a little embarrassed.

"I've wronged the little grandfather, it's really rare for people to come here, so the post house hasn't had time to take care of it."

Qin Tian was really a little flattering about the environment of this post house, but he couldn't say anything about it when he thought that they wouldn't be able to stay here for long, and it would be troublesome for people to be troublesome.

Therefore, Qin Tian only waved his hand and said, "Okay, as long as you can live in people, you can come in civilian clothes tomorrow, and follow the official for a secret visit." ”

Since you want to patrol, you naturally have to look around, and the secret visit is the best way to find a problem in a place, Wu Liang hurriedly responded after listening to it.

Wu Liang retreated, and Luo Huang smiled: "Childe, this place is too barren, I don't think anything will happen in the future, let's leave in two days." ”

"Yes, yes, Brother Qin, let's go quickly, Jiangnan is fun."

Cheng Chumo was in a hurry to leave, but he was just in a hurry to go to Jiangnan, because the people in Jiangnan were beautiful and the scenery was also beautiful, he had been yearning for it before, and it was not what he wanted to delay time here.

Qin Tian shrugged his shoulders and said, "After tomorrow's secret visit, if there is nothing to do, we will leave the day after tomorrow." ”

After saying this, everyone went back to rest, Qin Tian's residence was relatively good, but it was still too different from his usual place, so that he tossed and turned a little throughout the night, and it was difficult to sleep.

The next day, he was in a bit of a bad spirit.
