Chapter 643: The Alleys Are Empty!
Chapter 643
"Master Wang Chong is back!"
Just as he was talking, a high-pitched, sharp voice suddenly came out from a distance. On the city gate, a figure with sharp eyes saw Wang Chong and they immediately yelled.
"Boom!"
The capital, which was originally quiet, suddenly boiled after the sharp voice came out.
"Master Chong is back!"
"Hurry up and firecrackers!"
"Everyone, go to the city gate and have a look!"
"The teenage heroes of the South are back!"
"Brother Chong is mine, don't rob me!"
...
The entire capital was in a commotion, accompanied by countless crackling firecrackers. Not only that, as if receiving a signal, countless people poured out of the city gate like crucian carp crossing the river, all of them flushed with joy.
"Wang Chong!"
"Wang Chong!"
"Wang Chong!"
...
Waves of Wang Chong's calls resounded through the sky, mixed with the screams of many girls. Let alone Bai Siling and Zhao Hongying next to this scene, even Wang Chong was dumbfounded.
"I can't tell, you still have a lot of girls who like you!"
Behind him, there was a cold, delicious voice. Huang Qian'er was carrying a big sword on her back, staring coldly at Wang Chong in front of her.
"Hehe, I didn't know it was so popular."
Wang Chong laughed.
This sentence was greeted by the unanimous cold snorts of the three girls beside him.
Although they have always maintained a close and distant relationship with Wang Chong, sometimes even they themselves don't understand what this is, like friends and more than just friends, but one thing is very clear, after the Southwest War back,
The three of them regarded Wang Chong as their own slaves.
Among the three, no one can get close to Wang Chong, but the other girls can't.
Wang Chong smiled awkwardly, and quickly stopped talking.
"Young master, this way!"
Suddenly, a familiar voice came, which attracted Wang Chong's attention. Wang Chong's heart moved, and he turned his head to look, only to see two figures galloping towards him on horseback.
"Brother Guo, Brother Chai! Why are you here?"
Wang Chong's eyes lit up, he was very surprised, and immediately rode his horse to meet him. These two people are none other than Guo Feng and Chai Zhiyi who had crossed paths in the Kunwu training camp.
The Guo family and the Chai family are both the founding families of the Tang Dynasty, with great power. Guo Feng and Chai Zhiyi are direct descendants of the family. It is impossible for ordinary people to meet them, let alone make them meet in reverse.
Wang Chong also did not expect that they would wait for him at the city gate.
"Hahaha, I heard that Mr. Chong is going back to the capital, Brother Chai and I have been waiting here for a long time."
Guo Feng raised his hand and smiled.
"Young Master Chong has made great contributions in the southwest. There are many people in the capital who want to see Young Master Chong. We also want to be the first, so we specially waited at the city gate."
Chai Zhiyi also smiled at the side.
"The two dear friends are polite."
Wang Chong saluted back, thinking that the two were being polite, but Wang Chong soon knew that the two were not at all.
"Prince Wang! Look at the prince here!"
Suddenly there was a loud cry, and there was a commotion at the city gate. When Wang Chong looked back, he saw a large group of people pouring out from inside. Those from Zhang's family, Lu's family, Huang's family, and Cheng's family all poured out from the capital.
But before Wang Chong came back to his senses, another cry came.
"Young Master Chong is back! Young Master Chong is back!"
Just behind Cheng, Huang, Lu, and Zhang, the four major swordsmith families, countless people from the capital's great families poured out from it. Most of these people, Wang Chong, looked strange, but when he saw the emblems of their respective families on their clothes, Wang Chong immediately recognized them.
These people were all aristocratic families who provided family guards to themselves before the Southwest War in exchange for Utz steel weapons.
In the southwest victory, it seemed that even these big aristocratic families joined in one after another, rushing to welcome them one by one.
"Young Master Chong, our Patriarch is here to invite you. I hope that Young Master Chong can come and sit at our residence."
"Young Master Chong, this is a little care of our family, please accept it with a smile."
"I know that the young master is exhausted and needs to rest. This is an invitation from our Patriarch. When it is convenient for you, please come to the mansion. Our Patriarch will welcome you."
"Young Master Chong, we belong to the guard family in the capital. I don't know if you still need guards? We have brought more than ten people here this time. If you like it, you can accept them. You have made great contributions to Tang Dynasty, This is also a little bit of our Patriarch's heart."
"And us! And us!"
...
Patriarchs, direct sons, and stewards of countless aristocratic families gathered around from all directions, some gave gold and silver treasures, some sent high-powered guards, and some aristocratic families even brought the adult daughters of the direct descendants of the clan together. Betrothed to Wang Chong, and the Wang family formed a good relationship between Qin and Jin.
Rao was Wang Chong who had experienced the Great War in the Northwest, defeated opponents like Daqin Ruozan and Huoshu Guizang, and cultivated an incomparably strong heart. But seeing those girls from aristocratic families who lifted the curtains, dressed up, and stepped out of the carriage, they couldn't help but blushed.
Behind Wang Chong, Bai Siling, Huang Qian'er, and Zhao Hongying were all frost-faced, and their eyes wanted to breathe fire, staring fiercely at the patriarchs of the families who brought the girls from the clan.
"Boom!"
Just when the crowd was at its busiest, there was a sudden rumble and the sky was shaken. Two teams of armed cavalry suddenly rushed out from the city gate. Behind the cavalry were many guards. Several majestic and gorgeous bronze carriages rushed out of the city.
Although he couldn't see anything, there was a huge aura that burst out from the carriage like a tide, accompanied by a mountain-like coercion, and radiated endlessly.
All the people who felt this aura trembled, like a mouse meeting a cat, subconsciously backed away one by one.
"Ah! Ministry of War!"
Seeing the leading green carriage, especially the emblem on the carriage, and the waving flag, even the patriarchs of many aristocratic families turned pale and retreated to both sides.
In the entire capital, there is only one person in the entire Tang Dynasty who dares to hang that kind of car emblem and that kind of flag.
That person's identity and status are definitely not something that the patriarchs, elders, and direct descendants of these aristocratic families present can provoke.
"Boom!"
Suddenly there was a loud noise, and the two teams of Tang cavalry with strong auras suddenly dispersed, surrounding Wang Chong and other people who were traveling with them from both sides.
"who?!"
Beside Wang Chong, Bai Siling and Zhao Hongying next to him saw this scene, their expressions changed, and they immediately rushed forward.
"Wait a minute!"
Wang Chong raised his hands and stopped them. The new emblem on the carriage appeared in the capital not long ago, and not many people know about it. But Wang Chong had seen it in the Southwest Territory.
"boom!"
While he was thinking, the door of the carriage opened, and a gorgeous cyan boot with a deep sense of authority stepped out of the carriage. Wearing a bright red first-rank official uniform and a jade python belt, when Zhang Qiu and Qiong's majestic figure appeared, everyone present couldn't help but bow their heads.
Imperial Tigers!
Abandoning the heavy identity of Minister of the Ministry of War, the person in front of him still has the status of an important general of the empire. In the Battle of the Southwest, more than 100,000 of Zhangchou Jianqiong's Annan Protectorate Army were killed, and the Southwest was in jeopardy.
Everyone in the capital knew that the moment the Southwest was lost was when the new Minister of the Ministry of War dismounted. Because if it wasn't for his pursuit of fame and fame, he left Southwest without authorization and gave Meng Wu an opportunity, Southwest would never have been like this.
What's more, the new Southwest Governor Xianyu Zhongtong was personally recommended by him!
But no one thought that because of Wang Chong's intervention, not only did the Southwest not die, but in the end, they actually turned defeat into victory, decapitating more than 400,000 heads of Mengwu, a great victory in the Southwest!
Not only did Xianyu Zhongtong and the 180,000 Annan military guards have no faults, but they also made meritorious deeds. Zhangchou Jianqiong also followed suit. He was well versed in running the army, knew people well, and was awarded by the Holy Emperor. The position of the new Minister of War is now as stable .
No one expected this.
Just by looking at Zhangchou Jianqiong's flushed face as he stepped down from the carriage, one could tell that he was just at the time when he was very proud of himself.
"Master Chong!"
Zhangchou Jianqiong stepped down from the carriage and glanced at Wang Chong before he came over. He took a step ahead and walked over with a serious expression. He respectfully bowed to Wang Chong and saluted very solemnly.
"Zhangchou has been waiting for a long time, please accept my gift!"
"Wow!"
Seeing Zhangchou Jianqiong salute Wang Chong, everyone was in an uproar in all directions. No one thought that Zhangchou Jianqiong would salute Wang Chong in front of so many people as Minister of the Ministry of War.
Even Bai Siling and Zhao Hongying's expressions changed, they dismounted quickly, stood on the ground, and retreated to the sides of the official road.
Zhangchou Jianqiong is the minister of the Ministry of War, a fierce tiger of the empire, one of the few imperial generals in the Tang Dynasty, and a first-rank official above the court, with a very high status. No matter what kind of relationship the Southwest Change has with him, his status is there.
In terms of rank alone, Zhang Qiu Jianqiong is not under the Mongolian generals like Daqin Ruozan, Huoshu Guizang, and Duan Gequan at all. What's more, there is now a layer of military minister status, who is the real leader of the Tang Empire. This is not something that any aristocratic family present can provoke.
Both Bai Siling and Zhao Hongying came from very powerful ancient families, but they still didn't dare to act presumptuously in front of Zhangchou Jianqiong.
On this kind of occasion, Zhangchou Jianqiong was obviously aiming at Wang Chong. His gift was something no one else could bear.
"Master Shang Shu is too polite, Wang Chong can't stand it!"
Wang Chong was also surprised, but he never thought that Zhang Qiu Jianqiong would actually do such a big gift to him under the eyes of everyone, so he quickly stretched out his hand to support Zhang Qiu Jianqiong's arm.
"In the battle of the Southwest, the son's merits are in the Tang Dynasty, and the benefits are in the people of Sheji. He is also a great benefactor of our Annan Protectorate Army. It is not an exaggeration to receive a gift from Zhang Qiu and Qiong!"
Zhangchou Jianqiong said solemnly, his voice was sincere and came from the bottom of his heart.
