Zhang Shuye quickly followed behind Zhao Guan's family.

He didn't expect that Zhao Guan's family would brave the heavy rain to greet him, and he was quite touched.

"Guan Jia, please slow down."

Zhang Shuye followed Zhao Ning and said, "Guan family, we are still not sure whether all the gold thieves have really retreated. It is really inappropriate for you to leave the city."

"Don't worry, let's go to the city head first and take a look!"

Zhao Ning did not ride in a carriage, but wore a raincoat and rode a horse. He led the imperial guards all the way out of Xuanwu Gate (the north gate of the palace) and arrived at Jinglong Gate after a while.

Outside is Jinglongmen Street. It is raining heavily outside and there are no people on the street.

When the people in the houses on both sides saw a group of people coming out, they all looked over curiously.

The Wuzhang River that crosses the capital from east to west is right in front. This river was one of the "four major canals" in the Song Dynasty.

At this time, the willow trees on the banks of the Wuzhang River were dancing in the wind and rain, and green grass was covering both sides of the river. There were still people sleeping in the boats on the river.

Zhao Ning ran all the way, hearing the sound of rain falling on the ground and the sound of frogs croaking.

Zhao Ning has slowly begun to get used to this identity.

To be an emperor, and to be an emperor in troubled times, you have to change your approach.

We can never play like the Zhao officials before.

After all, the world has changed, and so must the rules of the game.

When he arrived at the New Suanzao Gate (North Gate of Bianjing) in the north, Zhao Ning also saw soldiers standing guard on the city gate. Everyone stood upright and performed their duties loyally.

"Your Majesty..." The entourage was about to shout "Your Majesty is here", but was stopped by Zhao Ning.

After he dismounted, he walked up to the top of the city.

At this moment, a group of men and horses came towards this side, it was the scouts led by Zhang Zhongxiong.

Seeing that it was his son who had returned at night, Zhang Shu immediately asked, "Meng Ping, how about your investigation?"

Zhang Zhongxiong was asking the people at the top of the city to open the gate. When he heard his father's name, he looked up and saw many people at the top of the city.

"Reporting to Mr. Zhang, the gold thieves have withdrawn!"

"you sure?"

"My sons and daughters have checked within a radius of two hundred miles. The golden thief has crossed the Yellow River!"

As soon as he said this, the people at the top of the city couldn't help but cheer.

Zhao Ning did not stop him. After all, the city had been besieged for several months, and now that the gold thieves had finally retreated, it was only natural for people to cheer.

He quickly got off the city tower and said: "Open the city gate! Hurry!"

The soldiers were still not used to it, so they stood there for a while.

Zhang Shuye said quickly: "Open the city gate quickly, quickly!"

Then everyone opened the city gate unfamiliarly. When they opened the city gate, the hands of the soldiers were trembling.

As soon as the city gate was opened, Zhao Ning rushed out with his people.

"Where is King Qin's army?"

"They said they were stationed twenty miles northwest."

Zhao Ning led the people along the way with great speed.

This is his first time out of Bianjing City after traveling through time.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, as if it was going to flood the whole world, but Zhao Ning became more and more excited.

After bypassing the forest in front, we soon arrived at the place where King Qin's army was located in the south.

"Report! Magistrate Chen, a troop is coming towards us."

Chen Gui was checking the condition of the injured. Hearing the news, he became vigilant, and so did everyone else.

"Didn't you say that the golden thief has retreated?"

Chen Gui thought for a moment and said, "Maybe he's from the imperial court. Let's go."

The soldiers from King Qin's army rushed over with knives and even iron bars and hoes.

After Zhang Shuye sent someone to communicate with him, he found out that he was from the imperial court.

"The officials are here! The officials are here!"

The crowd started shouting.

"It's an official!"

Chen Gui and others soon heard this cry, and they were shocked.

The crowd made a way, and Chen Gui immediately stepped forward: "I, Chen Gui, see the official!"

Zhao Ning held Chen Gui's hand and said, "Qing is finally here!"

I traveled to Jingkang on the eve of shame. I was locked in the city for several months and I was finally able to come out today.

Talents from the Song Dynasty finally began to arrive one after another.

It is indeed a model for a small county magistrate to organize troops from the south to arrive.

Just like during the Jisi Rebellion at the end of the Ming Dynasty, Chongzhen issued an order to serve the king, and Lu Xiangsheng, the famous county magistrate, organized people to go to Beijing to serve the king.

"My rescue is late!" Chen Gui never expected that Zhao Guanjia would actually go out of the city to greet him in person despite the heavy rain.

No one else expected that His Majesty the Emperor would come on such a rainy day.

The crowd is spreading, and everyone is greatly encouraged.

"No, no, no, you have done a great job, I am very happy!"

rain?

No matter how heavy the rain is!

Next, Zhao Ning did not immediately drag Chen Gui into the city, but personally visited this Qinwang army.

Why did he want to personally visit this army of King Qin?

Because of the human heart!

Those who can travel all the way to the capital to serve the king, these are good seedlings for the new army!

The imperial court is already eager to form a new army.

Because at the end of the year, once the weather turns cold, the Jin army will inevitably move south on a large scale again.

If he could quickly raise a new army, Zhao Ning would have no problem being outside in the rain for three days and three nights.

"Boys, thank you for your hard work!"

In the rain, Zhao Guanjia shouted loudly. As he walked, his eyes swept over everyone.

"You are so good. I have finally welcomed you!"

To put it very simply, these people are basically farmers, and it is useless to talk to them about the high-level "Zhi Hu Zhe Ye".

Everyone was obviously excited.

The most important thing is that there must be money distributed.

After expressing condolences, Zhao Ning took Chen Gui all the way into Bianjing.

At this time, soldiers on horseback shouted on Bianjing Street: "The gold thieves have retreated!"

"The golden thief has retreated!"

This sentence is like dew to the people of Bianjing City after a long drought.

People stuck their heads out one after another.

"The golden thief has retreated!"

"The golden thief really retreated!"

"Guan Zhao is right, the gold thief really left this month!"

News of the Jin army's retreat quickly spread throughout Bianjing.

Countless people came to the streets to cheer.

No one cares about the heavy rain.

Obviously, Zhao Ning's reputation in Tokyo City has reached the highest point in history.

At this time, in Prince Yun's Mansion, the steward outside quickly ran in and shouted: "Your Highness, the Jin army has retreated!"

Zhao Kai was shocked: "Retreating?"

"Retreat, the news has spread throughout the city!"

Zhao Kai looked blank, sat down, and muttered to himself as if he was deflated: "The official got it right."
