June of the third year of Longshuo, the Tang Dynasty.

By the Xiongjin River, the swallows chirp.

"I will send you a thousand miles away. I will have to part with you. The Governor's Office is busy. Please come back."

Su Dawei stood at the bow of the ship and told Liu Rengui and others who were chasing him all the way to the ship.

"Governor Su, let's talk with you."

Liu Rengui looked around and reached out to signal.

Under the surprised gaze of the other generals, he asked Su Dawei to walk to the side of the big ship with him, stand on the side of the ship, faced the bitter river wind, and lowered his voice: "Governor Su, you have really made me embarrassed this time."

"Governor Liu, why are you embarrassed?" Su Dawei raised a faint smile on the corner of his mouth and looked at the veteran in front of him.

Liu Rengui's hair was much whiter than before, and his temples were covered with wind and frosty color.

The deep wrinkles between his eyebrows could not hide his fatigue and anxiety.

A string of bubbles appeared on the corners of my mouth.

It can be seen that I have a lot of thought.

"Acting Governor, I am the acting Governor, so don't call him that."

"Then I have stepped down. You can just call me Su Dawei, and there is no need to call me the governor again."

Facing Su Dawei's vigorous face, Liu Rengui was speechless for a moment and had to shake his head and smile bitterly.

"Governor Su, we are working together in Baekje for a long time. I know you are very disciplined and very brave, but in my opinion, sometimes the Governor is too bold again."

Su Dawei looked at Liu Rengui, a famous general who was the Wen and Wu of the Tang Dynasty, at this time, his white hair was dancing with the wind of the river, and the doubts between his eyebrows were not as fake.

"Governor Su, I don't know what reason you are for. You escorted the nobles such as Fuyufeng, the pseudo-king of Baekje, back to the court, but they left behind the ghost room Fuxin and Daochen.

It should be noted that both of them are on the list. Your Majesty’s urgent call may be related to this matter.

Can you hide it for a while, or for a lifetime?”

As he said that, Liu Rengui glanced at Su Dawei's accompanying team again.

No suspicious people were seen.

This made him feel more and more uneasy.

He was a loyal and straightforward minister, and was famous for his courage to speak out and speak out during the reign of Emperor Taizong.

Even after Emperor Taizong passed away, he did not hesitate to make friends with Changsun Wuji and had to speak out for justice.

Finally, Changsun Wuji and the others stepped down, but they hated Li Yi's mansion again.

If it weren't for the need for a general like him to conquer Goguryeo, and with the protection of Liu Renyuan, Su Dingfang, Su Dawei and others, he would not have been able to get there now.

Because of his experiences of many sinister storms, he was even less willing to look at a young general like Su Dawei, who angered the emperor because he was too unrestrained and bold in his work.

Logically speaking, the leaders of the rebels like Daochen and Guishi Fuxin must have been taken back to Chang'an with Fuyufeng and others to show their merits.

But Qi is Qi, Su Dawei did not do this.

All other prisoners of war were taken back, and the two of them were missing.

This has always puzzled Liu Rengui.

He was already a year of knowing his destiny and doing things more steadily than when he was young. He kept hiding and not making any noise, just to figure out what Su Dawei wanted to do.

But until now, when Su Dawei was about to return to the Tang Dynasty, he had not seen any traces of Daochen and Guishi Fuxin.

Can't help it anymore.

If you want to see people alive and corpses die, you must not disappear out of thin air.

Su Dawei, Governor Su, what exactly do you want to do?

Hearing Liu Rengui's anxious words, looking at the concern on his face, Su Dawei restrained the smile on his face, and solemnly clasped his fists at him, "Governor Liu, I am not a person who is ignorant of importance. I have my own sense of this matter."

"If Your Majesty asks..."

"I will explain it to His Majesty."

"Stop."

Liu Rengui shook his head speechlessly: "I am not concerned about the two Baekje traitors, but I am worried about you. Governor Su has a bright future and should not hate the holy family for small things."

"Thank you, Governor Liu, for your advice."

Su Dawei clasped his fists to Liu Rengui again: "I will explain this to Your Majesty, Governor Liu is relieved..."

After stopping, he continued: "The most important thing in Baekje now is people's livelihood and money and food. As long as the people have food and clothing, there will be no major chaos."

When he heard Su Dawei mention the Baekje incident, Liu Rengui, who is the acting governor of Xiongjin, sighed and clasped his fists to Su Dawei: "Governor Su is not only good at using troops, but also handles people's livelihood and government affairs very properly. I admire him.

As long as the Baekje environment remains unchanged, I will be Xiao Gui Cao Sui, and I will ask Xiongjin Governor's Office to appease the world and preserve the hard-won foundation."

"As for the affairs of Japan, I have already reported it to Your Majesty alone. It will be controlled remotely by Xiongjin Governor's Office. An Wensheng and Hei-Tooth Changzhi are all outstanding generals. Japan is separated by the sea, so there should be no trouble.

If the situation is stable there, I would like to order the Japanese government to transfer money, food, taxes and taxes to the court, and take out a portion of them and feed them back to the Xiongjin Governor's Office."

Liu Rengui was moved when he heard Su Dawei say this.

"If this is true, the soldiers of Xiongjin Governor's Office will no longer be trapped by money and food. I will thank Governor Su for the soldiers of the Governor's Office first."

"This is my duty."

Su Dawei waved his hand and said, "You have to wait until your Majesty agrees before you dare to let go. If there is something wrong with Japan during this period, I hope Governor Liu will help you."

"must."

"After I left, I entrusted everything in the east to Governor Liu. I hope Governor Liu will take care of my old friends."

Liu Rengui stroked his long beard and laughed heartily: "They are all very talented. Even if Governor Su doesn't mention it, I will treat you kindly. Governor Su don't worry."

"Okay, it's not too early, so I'll set off now. I hope I can be in Chang'an and ask for a drunken meal with Governor Liu."

"Haha, I really want to ask for it."

After bidding farewell to Liu Rengui, he also gave instructions to Su Qingjie, Gao Dalong, Zhou Liang, Lou Shide, Wang Xiaojie, Xue Rengui and other generals one by one.

After everything was finished, Su Dawei, under the urging of the boatman, waved goodbye to everyone.

The sails rise and the wind sways in the river.

Several large ships were connected into a line and sailed along the Xiongjin River toward the estuary.

When you arrive at the port, you will replace it with a naval ship, cross the ocean, and land in Laizhou.

That is, Penglai, Shandong in later generations.

Then take the land route and if it goes well, you will be able to return to Chang'an in four or five months.

Halfway through the boat, I suddenly saw flags waving on the shore.

The sound of trumpets and the sound of horse hooves quickly went from far to near.

Everyone on the boat looked around and saw a big flag dancing with the wind of the river.

Liaodong Road Chief Manager, Li.

"It's the British Duke!"

The personal soldiers around Su Dawei exclaimed.

"The chief executive came to see the governor in person!"

Su Dawei felt aroused in his heart and stood at the bow of the boat and looked into the shore.

But in the war horse army formation, Li Jie, the British Duke of 70 years old, waving the horse's name under the banner of Li, was waving the horse's shore and looking at it.

The distance is far, and neither side speaks.

Just waved from afar across the river.

Su Dawei looked at Li Jie's old face, and his mood was stirred for a moment, and he clasped his fists to him and thanked him.

The eyes of both sides crossed the river, although speechless, they were better than thousands of words.

Although Li Ji put his character as a priority, there is no doubt that he was one of the most important Tang generals from the Taizong Dynasty to the Li Zhi Dynasty.

If he was missing, the martial ethics of the Tang Dynasty would have been less colorful.

Even if he is doing things behind him, he treats Su Dawei with great courtesy and kindness.

But this intention still makes people unable to remember it in their hearts.

Su Dawei also knew that when he was conquering Goguryeo, Li Ji specially recruited himself as the deputy chief executive, but in fact he sold his favor to him.

Add another aurora to your military resume.

To be honest, whether Su Dawei is used or not has no effect on his use of military force.

But he appointed Su Dawei as the deputy chief manager, and took the initiative to help Su Dawei deliver ladders and help Su Dawei gilded.

With this resume, if the imperial court uses troops next time, Su Dawei will at least be a general manager.

Of course, because Su Dawei's outstanding assists also indirectly helped Li Ji to come to a perfect end in the last battle of his military career.
