Five days later, it is almost noon.

The ship had arrived at Zhangjiawan in Tongzhou, and Zhou Heng stood on the deck and looked at both sides of the canal.

This place belongs to Tongzhou, and the canal transportation is the foundation of the country. If Liu Renli improves the political achievements here, the source of the canal is his treasure pot, and the amount of taxes and silver is a real political achievements.

"Boss, it's time for us to get off the boat."

Qu Ziping's call came from behind him. Zhou Heng was seasick these days, and it was mostly because Qu Ziping and Xiao Liuzi came to take care of him. Desheng and the others were sent by Zhou Heng to treat the old man.

Zhou Heng glanced at the location of the cabin and said, "Let's get off the boat first and let Desheng take people to clean up the cargo. He knows the best of all the quantities. We will leave, and then let the father and daughter leave."

Qu Ziping said yes, so he hurried to find Desheng. Liu Renli also came out at this moment. Although the weather is good today, it is still much colder than Qingping County. Liu Renli's nose is cold red.

"Second brother, this is the territory of Tongzhou. You can repair it here and then rush to the capital."

Zhou Heng shook his head, "It's already noon, and there are more than 80 miles from Tongzhou to the capital. After unloading the boat, we will hurry up and arrive at night. If all these people go to Tongzhou, they have to stay overnight. If you do it like this before you take office, it will make people think too much. It's better to follow the prince's arrangements."

Liu Renli nodded. He thought it was too simple, as Zhou Heng said.

"Then I'll get off the boat first, and we should say goodbye to the prince."

Qu Ziping ran over from behind and greeted Liu Renli and Zhou Heng.

"Boss, the arrangement has been made later. Dr. Huang and the others will stay with the father and daughter now, and wait until we evacuate them before getting off the boat."

"How is the old man's condition?"

"I can walk by myself, saying that I want to come over and kowtow to the boss and thank him, but I was stopped by Dr. Huang."

Zhou Heng nodded, Desheng's arrangement was correct.

"Okay, let's get off the boat as well. I see that Uncle Xiao has already helped the prince down. I guess the carriages and horses here have been arranged."

As he said that, a few people got off the boat, and sure enough, a row of carriages were ready. As the cargo at the stern was unloaded, they began to load the car in an orderly manner.

Zhou Heng's carriage, Boss Xue, watched it personally. They came from Qingping County and brought these two carriages. After all, they were built according to Zhou Heng's habits. The wheels were transformed in everything, which was light and quite comfortable.

One of them was particularly wide and there was a door to open at the back. This was prepared to transport the stretcher. Zhou Heng was reluctant to leave it behind, so he brought it together.

Liu Renli paid homage to Zhu Junmo with a hint of hesitation on his face. Zhu Junmo looked up and down at Liu Renli, and then asked in confusion:

"What's wrong with Lord Liu? Don't worry, I will send someone to send you there. Tongzhou is very close to the capital, otherwise you can go back to the capital with me first and then take office."

Liu Renli shook his head, "Thank you for your kindness. Zhang Huaiyuan and I will hire a car and go alone later. I don't want to rush to take office. Although I have heard of Tongzhou, I don't know much about the matter here. I'd better have a clear idea of ​​it after visiting it myself."

Zhou Heng looked at Liu Renli in surprise. He didn't expect that Liu Renli would have this awareness and want to manage a state well. This is very different from the county magistrate. If you visit the following counties more, you can find many problems by counting the land, crops, population, shops, and all of them.

This was when Zhou Heng and Liu Renli had dinner after Zhang Fuling left last time. He said this to him once, but he didn't expect that he was really concerned. This was a good thing, but he would suffer a little.

Liu Renli looked at Zhu Yunmo and then continued:

"What I am worried about now is how to resettle Meng Xiaoyou, his son and the imperial physician on the ship. After all, it is really inconvenient for us to investigate and take them with us. If we send them to the capital."

Zhu Yunmo waved his hand, "Don't worry about this. I'll send someone to send them to Lord Zhang Fuling. It's better to let Lord Zhang deal with this."

Liu Renli gave his salute again, "Then I'll trouble the prince. I'll set off at this moment, starting from the canal ferry in Tongzhou, and searching all the way westwards."

Zhou Heng raised his hand and signaled him to stop.

"Brother, don't worry, I've brought two carriages, and you can take away a large one. It's not troublesome to move in Tongzhou. There are charcoal stoves and tables and chairs on it. Then prepare some bedding and food for you, so I feel more at ease."

After saying that, before Liu Renli could refute, he turned around and waved his hand to Boss Xue. Boss Xue had just pulled the carriage and horse down and ran over quickly.

"What's the matter?"

"Give the biggest carriage to Lord Liu, and then you arrange two Lingshan Village guys to follow them. If you are not familiar with life here, you should bring two more clever and skilled around you to be safer. They want to check the local situation."

Boss Xue nodded and realized in an instant.

"If you understand, just go to visit privately. I'll make arrangements now, put a thick quilt on the cart, prepare more food, and bring two pots of wine. The weather is too cold, and it's better to drink a sip."

After saying it on his own, he turned around and left.

Liu Renli raised his hand and patted Zhou Heng on the shoulder. I don’t know how to say a lot of things. This second brother recognizes it.

"If you don't say much, Xiu'er will leave it to you. Take care!"

After saying that, Liu Renli took Zhang Huaiyuan and Zhou Yi'an and walked towards the carriage. The person Xue Boss looked for looked very smart, jumped out of the car and bowed respectfully to Zhou Heng, and then drove away.

Su Xiaoxiao pulled Liu Xiu'er and Chuntao standing behind her. Liu Xiu'er did not cry, but just waved her hand in the direction where the carriage disappeared.

"Master, the goods have been loaded, let's go too!"

Zhu Yunmo nodded, paused after just two steps, and looked at Uncle Xiao.

"Did you find out that woman?"

Pang Xiao shook his head, "It is impossible to find out. The old slave will send someone to follow them. As for whether to return to their hometown or do something, only after investigating these can you know."

Su Xiaoxiao's nose is full of muscles, "What a poor woman. Last night I heard her play the piano and sing. Not to mention men, I felt like I couldn't give up after hearing it. I didn't have any money on my body. I took my father back to my hometown. I don't know who can help me?"

Zhu Yunmo turned his head and signaled Pang Xiao to give the woman in white some money, so that she would not look like these people bullying the people.

Everyone got into the car. Just as they were about to leave, Boss Xue knocked on the car door, Zhou Heng poked his head out and asked.

"What's wrong?"

"That woman is chasing me!"

Zhou Heng was stunned, then frowned and looked back from the car window. Sure enough, the woman in white ran towards the convoy, and the old man stood behind him, constantly covering his mouth and nose to cough.

Judging from Desheng's judgment, the old man's illness is not like pretending. After all, obstructive emphysema takes time and cannot be formed in one day. Besides, the old man is extremely infected. Although it has been relieved after several days of treatment, he is still a little coughing when he is old.

In such cold weather, when I returned to the capital, I might really feel that I am dead soon and I am homesick!

Therefore, Zhou Heng did not target the woman and the old man anymore, just not disturbing or affecting it. However, at this moment, the woman was still wearing thin clothes, with a little urgent face, and kept looking at each carriage, as if she was looking for someone again.
