Three days later, Zhao Yan learned from Fei Ge that Pan Wenyue, the governor of Shuzhou, and his party would arrive in Changdan City in two days.

Zhao Yan couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Although the new policy is bumpy, it has finally been slowly rolled out in the Great Zhou Dynasty. The only way to quickly heat up the new policy is to show the achievements of the Shuzhou New Policy.

This time, Zhao Yan wants to play a big game. Not only should he vigorously promote the achievements of the Shuzhou new policy, but he should also make the surrounding countries envious, jealous and hateful, and then he can't wait to start the new policy.

Inside the arched hall.

Xiao Jingye, Liu Chaotong, Kong Moshan, Yang Xinghuai, and Shangguan unyue. These five pillars of the imperial court were summoned by Zhao Yan.

Zhao Yan looked at the five people below and said, "Pan Aiqing and his party will return to Changdan City tomorrow. Others don't know the achievements of Shuzhou's new policy, but you five know it. When they come back, we will naturally prepare a grand welcome ceremony."

"On the one hand, it is because this group of people has made great contributions to our Great Zhou court, and on the other hand, we must let the surrounding countries see how dazzling the new policy of Shuzhou has achieved."

Hearing this, Xiao Jingye and the other two felt a little sad.

I regretted not trying to go to Shuzhou to carry out the new policy reform at that time.

This is definitely something that has been celebrated throughout the ages.

Xiao Jingye was also a little depressed and thought to himself: hundreds of years later, the descendants of the Great Zhou Dynasty may have forgotten that Xiao Jingye, who is a literary prime minister, but they will definitely remember Pan Wenyue who reformed the new policy in Shuzhou. If he had known that Pan Wenyue would have achieved such brilliant achievements, he would have fought for this literary prime minister to become a magistrate in Shuzhou.

Shangguan Buyue was also depressed. He was younger than Pan Wenyue. If he asked him to do this task, he might do better than Pan Wenyue. His regretful intestines turned blue.

As for Yang Xinghuai and Kong Moshan, they believed that if they were a few years younger, this beauty would definitely fall on him.

"Cough cough..." Zhao Yan coughed twice before awakening the five people from depression.

"Let's talk about it, how can we welcome them?"

Xiao Jingye thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, I think that if the people learn about Pan Zhizhou's return, they will definitely come to the streets and welcome them together. Our ministers can also wait outside the hall for their return."

It is already a great honor to have all the ministers welcome their return.

"That's it?" Zhao Yan gave Xiao Jingye a blank look and said, "No, this kind of formation is too small!"

Yang Xinghuai bowed and said, "Then... let all civil and military officials go out of the city to welcome him? Then Your Majesty holds a celebration banquet in the palace. How about?"

Zhao Yan smiled slightly and said, "My idea is that all civil and military officials will go out of the city to greet them for three miles, and I will greet them at the city gate."

Sanli is not a random distance.

In the public's perception, the city is the strongest place for defense, and within three miles of the city, it represents safety and stability.

After walking out of these three miles, it will be different.

During the Great Zhou rituals, civil and military officials of the court were separated from the capital three miles at the same time, representing a huge glory.

Even the emperor may not be able to enjoy this kind of glory.

"Ah? Your Majesty, this is a bit inappropriate! There have been no such rules in all dynasties! You can't leave the city easily!" Shangguan Buyue said with a frown.

Yang Xinghuai was also a little frightened and said, "Your Majesty, if you do this, Old Pan may be proud!"

"Haha, I just make him proud. He may not have realized how great he has done!" Zhao Yan said with a smile.

Xiao Jingye, who was most particular about etiquette, opened his mouth and did not raise any objections.

Because, after thinking carefully, he suddenly realized that his son Xiao Zijie was also in the returning team. If Xiao Zijie could enjoy such honor, it would definitely be that the ancestral tomb of the old Xiao family would be smoked.

Kong Moshan even agreed and said: "Your Majesty, I think it is reasonable to do this. They deserve this honor."

Most of the reason why Kong Moshan agrees so much is naturally because his son can enjoy such glory.

"Okay, then let's do it like this. Tomorrow morning, officials above the fifth rank in Beijing gathered at the city gate, and then walked three miles to welcome the heroes of the Great Zhou reform! In addition, telling the people about the return of Pan Wenyue and others, as for how the people will perform, it depends on their spontaneous behavior!" Zhao Yan said.

"My ministers, accept the order!" said the five ministers in unison, their eyes full of envy for Pan Wenyue.

The next day, just as the sky was dawn, thousands of people rushed out excitedly at the moment when the Changdan City opened.

Most of the people in Changdan City are rich and like to join in the fun. Some of them come with respect for Pan Wenyue and others, and some of them are just for watching the fun.

Before the civil and military officials arrived at the pavilion three miles away outside the city, more than 5,000 people had gathered there.

What’s even more interesting is that some people also bring small benches, snacks, dried fruits, and even family members to see this scene today.

After dawn, under the front and back guards of the three thousand imperial guards, nearly 200 civil and military officials also set out.

Xiao Jingye, Kong Moshan and Yang Xinghuai had their hair tied up. The official uniforms were very neat and looked energetic, but they knew very well that today's protagonist had someone else.

At this moment, nearly ten miles away from the Sanli Pavilion, a convoy of about 200 people was moving forward slowly.

Among them, at the front, two young men with tall and big horses with a little dark skin were Xiao Zijie, the governor of Shantai Prefecture of Shuzhou and Kong Ze, the governor of Dacheng Prefecture.

Both of them knew very well what it meant to return to Changdan as a representative, so they were very excited.

"Kong Ze, when I go back this time, my status at home will definitely be improved. My father will definitely not hit me again!" Xiao Zijie said proudly.

Kong Ze curled his lips and said, "Look at your promising prospects, I don't think it is certain. If Uncle Xiao saw you, he would definitely beat you up!"

"What's wrong with me writing poetry? Can't you have a hobby? Even if you don't like my poetry style, maybe future generations like it. Last time I asked Your Majesty to read my poetry collection!" Xiao Zijie said with a narcissistic look on his face.

"Then how did Your Majesty respond to you in the end?" Kong Ze asked.

Xiao Zijie thrust his chest and said, "Your Majesty said, my poems are unique and very interesting!"

Kong Ze complained: "Your Majesty just doesn't want to hit you!"

At this moment, Xiao Zijie suddenly saw a crowd of people in the distance and couldn't help but say excitedly: "Kong Ze, look, this should be the people coming outside the city to welcome us!"

Kong Ze looked up and became excited. He never thought that he would still enjoy glory that his father would not enjoy in his life.

This feeling made him feel that all the suffering and fatigue he suffered in Shuzhou was worth it.
