Chapter 1019 It's the old friend who came

People under the city were surprised to see Chu Huan's stones that could smash the battlements with one punch. They were just ordinary people, and they had never seen such a sharp and majestic fist.

"I have already said that I have already said that from now on, I will rely on the help of all the fellow villagers." Chu Huan looked around the city, "The doctors in the city rushed to the Governor's Office to gather at dusk. I want to discuss with you how to deal with the plague. I hope everyone can arrive on time. This is planning for the lives of thousands of people in Xiguan. I hope no one will be late."

The government had always been helpless against the plague before, and people had already felt resentment in their hearts. At this time, they were all excited to hear Chu Huan want to summon doctors to deal with the plague.

"Mage Ma, I will spare you forever, but you heard what happened just now." Chu Huan looked at Mage Ma, "You can't keep Shuoquan. You can go back immediately, pack up your things, and leave Shuoquan. This time I can spare you, but if you hear that you are pretending to be a god in Xiguan territory, don't blame me for being polite."

The witch Ma showed surprise at first, but seemed to think of something, and glanced at Dong Shizhen. Seeing that Dong Shizhen was looking away, not looking at herself, she bent her body and ran away tremblingly.

"Okay, everyone will disperse." Chu Huan signaled everyone to disperse, and people were talking. Although they did not see the witch jumping down from the city, everyone was still satisfied with the result. What's more important is that the Governor promised in public to summon the doctor to deal with the plague, which made everyone even more excited.

"Sir, come and see." On the other end of the city tour, the guard Yun Wei Qi Hong frowned and turned around and said, "It seems something is wrong."

Chu Huan was a little strange, but did not turn around immediately. Instead, he approached Qiu Ruxue and whispered something in Qiu Ruxue's ear. Qiu Ruxue nodded slightly, glanced at the inner city, and remained silent. Dong Shizhen saw Chu Huan whispering to Qiu Ruxue, and was confused. He turned his ears slightly, as if he wanted to know what Chu Huan was saying, but how could he hear Chu Huan's voice?

After giving a few instructions, Chu Huan walked to the outer city. Everyone around Chu Huan followed him, but Qiu Ruxue did not follow him and retreated quietly.

"Sir, look, it seems like a group of people." Seeing Chu Huan coming, Qi Hong raised his hand to point to the avenue outside the city. Chu Huan looked over. In the sun, he saw that there were indeed a group of people and horses in the sky. There were actually a lot of people and horses. A long team was coming to Shuoquan City. Xuanyuan Sheng had already frowned and said, "Sir, they have a lot of horses. What Xiguan lacks the most now is horses. Who would have so many horses coming? Who would these people?"

Qi Hong couldn't help but ask, "Can they be bandits?"

"Of course it's impossible." Chu Huan shook his head and smiled: "Fifteen miles outside the city, there are Pingxi Army stationed. Although the Pingxi Army cannot send troops to suppress bandits now, the camp where the bandits want to attack Shuoquan, they have to break through the Pingxi Army's camp first."

"The Lord said it's right." Xuanyuan Shengcai said: "Of course it can't be a bandit. Could it be a caravan coming from other places? But the scale of this caravan is quite large. I see there are hundreds of people...!"

"Sir, look, it seems that someone is coming here...!" Qi Hong raised his hand and said.

Chu Huan looked closely and saw that there were three or four horses coming over there, which was extremely fast. These horses were also very fierce. They seemed to be far away in the sky just now. In just a moment, the horses were getting closer and closer to Shuoquan City. Chu Huan saw the passengers on the horses, and brows first, but quickly stretched out, and his eyes were filled with surprise. When the horses approached, Chu Huan showed joy on his face and said, "It's your own!" Without saying much, he went down to the city.

When Chu Huan came from the city gate from the top of the city gate, Xuanyuan Shengcai and others who were following him were still confused. However, the horses had already rushed over and before they approached the city gate, the first one said happily: "Sir, Lord Chu, how are you here to welcome us? Do you know we are here today?" The man was wearing strong clothes and shorts, thick and fat, and his face was full of surprise. He had turned over and got off the horse.

"Pang Liu, why are you here?" Chu Huan took two steps forward and said in surprise: "Wang Han... Hey, Xiao Liuzi, you... are you here?"

Chu Huan never expected that the one who suddenly appeared in front of him was his old friend.

The first person was when he was the general of the Iron Guards of Yunshan Prefecture. His subordinate Pang Liu. At that time, Wei Tianqing sent two people as Chu Huan's entourage, one was Pang Liu and the other was Wang Han. However, after Chu Huan entered the capital, the two of them could not follow each other. Although they had not been together for a long time, they had a bit of affection. Chu Huan never expected that Pang Liu and Wang Han would both come to Shuoquan at the same time today.

What surprised Chu Huan even more was that even Xiao Liuzi followed him to Shuoquan. Xiao Liuzi was Linlang's servant, smart and clever. When Chu Huan closed the door to make a bartender for Linlang, Xiao Liuzi just followed him to fight. Xiao Liuzi was only fifteen or sixteen years old, but Chu Huan liked this kid's cleverness quite a lot.

Fat Liu got off the horse. After hearing Chu Huan's question, he was a little surprised and asked, "Sir, you... don't you know we are coming? Then..." He glanced behind Chu Huan and followed many people, among which Fat Liu, the white blind man, had seen him, "Why did he bring so many people to welcome us?"

Chu Huan sighed and said, "Pang Liu, your weight has increased, but your wisdom has really not improved much. Even if I really know you are coming, why should I greet you here in person? Do you think you have such a great face?"

Fat Liu was suddenly disappointed, Chu Huan laughed and saw that Wang Han and Xiao Liuzi had come over. The two had already saluted Chu Huan. Chu Huan hurriedly signaled to avoid the gift. He knew that Fat Liu was a little confused and liked to exaggerate his words, but Wang Han was smart and capable, and had already asked: "Why are you all here? Xiao Liuzi, the family is well?"

When Xiao Liuzi saw Chu Huan, she was obviously very happy and said, "Brother Chu..." As soon as she said that, the fat Liu monster's eyes rolled and said, "Xiao Liuzi, how many times have I told you on the road? Lord Chu is now a rank-level official and must be called Lord. You must respect him. Have you forgotten?"

Xiao Liuzi was a little panicked and her face turned red. Chu Huan laughed and said, "Xiao Liuzi, this rule is set for Fat Liu. He must respectfully call me an adult in front of others, but you don't have to do this. It doesn't matter if you call me Brother Chu."

Pang Liu was even more depressed and thought to himself that the Governor was really favoring one or the other.

Wang Han smiled at this time, "Sir, we have followed the order of the commander of the commander to escort the convoy. This time, the commander selected a hundred good men from the Imperial Guards and specially escorted the convoy to Xiguan. The commander had explained that the convoy must be delivered to Shuoquan. If there is a carriage missing, we will carry our heads back."

"Convoy?" Chu Huanqi said: "What convoy? This convoy was sent by Brother Wei?"

Wang Han shook his head. Seeing that there were people everywhere, many of them were very strange, he did not explain immediately. Chu Huan also understood that Wang Han was a cautious person and must have scruples. He did not ask at the moment. Wang Han and others were riding horses and were extremely fast. The team behind him was still a long way away. Chu Huan turned around and ordered Bai Xiaozi, "Go back to the house and tell the wife, let the wife prepare, and then say that there were guests coming." He smiled at Du Fugong and said, "Mr. Du, we have many guests. I am afraid that the mansion will have a big banquet, and Su Niang may not be able to arrange it clearly..."

Du Fugong naturally understood Chu Huan's meaning. From Chu Huan's words and deeds, he also understood that Chu Huan attached great importance to the guests. He nodded and said, "I will go back to my house first and help my wife arrange it together."

Dong Shizhen just came down from the city and looked around. At this moment, she finally smiled and said, "Sir, since it is your guest, it is better to go to the restaurant to arrange it, as it is much more convenient."

Chu Huan shook his head with a smile and said, "No need to do this. Lord Dong, my governor has ordered that at dusk, all the doctors in the city will gather in the Governor's Office. I am not very familiar with the doctors in the city, and not all doctors will know such a notice. Look...!"

Of course, Dong Shizhen understood what Chu Huan meant, so she could only smile reluctantly and said, "Then the official will leave first and send someone to notify the doctors in the city..."

"Then it's going to be a blessing from Lord Dong." Chu Huan smiled and nodded, not paying much attention. Dong Shizhen was a little embarrassed, turned around and walked, took a few steps, turned around, looked at Pang Liu and others for a few glances, and there was a look of doubt in his eyes. He really didn't know where this group of people came from.

After Dong Shizhen left with her entourage, Chu Huan turned around and made sure that there were all her own people behind her. Then she smiled and said, "Wang Han, now it can be said that everyone here is his own family."

Wang Han then said: "Sir, the personnel who escorted the convoy were selected and sent by the Wei General, but the convoy was not sent by the Wei General, but by the Su Dong family."

"Linlang?" Chu Huan was stunned, and then said in surprise: "You mean, Linlang... Linlang is here?"

"The Su Dong family did not come here." Wang Han hurriedly said, "This is the thing. After the Su Dong family knew that the Lord came to Xiguan to take office...!" After pausing, he turned to Xiaoliuzi, "Xiaoliuzi, you are from the Su Dong family's mansion. You know the matter better than us. Report to the Lord."

Xiao Liuzi said a little embarrassedly: "I...I can't speak, Brother Wang, you'd better say it... Well, if you wait for Su Bo to come, he will know everything best."

"Su Bo?" Chu Huan was stunned. Su Bo was the old housekeeper of the Su Mansion and the person Linlang relied the most. However, he was old. Chu Huan expected that even Su Bo would come to Xiguan.
