For Shi Yiwen, who was far away in Nanjing, he naturally didn't know what was happening in the capital.

With the arrival of an edict, he, as a tribute envoy, was going to Beijing. However, before entering Beijing, some things were still indispensable.

Shi Yiwen has been visiting relatives and friends these days. In fact, he has not had many friends, just Liu Nengde, Liu Jinjiang and others. In addition, the Song family has also visited. As for the Tang family, although they did not have much interaction and had to visit them out of politeness, they were turned away. They said that the lady was not at home.

Even Wang Xin had to visit him. What disappointed Wang Xin was that he was not recalled to Beijing, so he seemed extremely angry.

That is, when he was visiting relatives and friends to say goodbye to his friends, the Ministry of Rites sent someone to notify him that the Ministry of Rites had set a time for him to enter Beijing and took an official boat to enter Beijing in early July.

Because I have prepared for a long time, and I don’t have many possessions, there are actually quite a few, such as those tens of thousands of books. After preparing for this for a few days, it will be time to travel.

The sky was not beautiful. On the third day of the July 19th, when Shi Yiwen set off, it started raining. While Lifu and his friends were carrying boxes of books onto the carriage, two guests unexpectedly came to their homes.

Before the front foot entered the door, the visitor started yelling. "Zhiyuan, you are too little friends. Why did you go to the capital? You didn't say hello to me. If I hadn't inquired, I would probably have been turned away next time I came here."

As soon as you see your body, Shi Yiwen knew who was coming. It was Chang Yukun, the Marquis of Huaiyuan, and next to him was... Xu Weixin!

Do they know?

Why don’t they know each other? They are all people in the same circle. However, when they bid farewell to their friends, they really didn’t expect them, especially Fatty Chang. As for Xu Weixin, the threshold for his family is too high and most people can’t get in.

"Zhiyuan."

Compared to Chang Yukun's Zhang Yang, Xu Weixin still looks so gentle.

"Hey! Kunwu, Mingda, you... look at me, it's my fault. I've been busy packing things for a while."

Pointing at the book box that the coolies were carrying, Shi Yiwen apologized.

"All right, I know, if you don't have me as a friend, Xiaowu will be useless if you go there. Most people can't get into the Duke's Mansion to ask him,"

Looking at the boxes in the yard, Chang Yukun smiled and said.

"Oh, I never thought you were a tribute envoy. There are so many people in this house. Could it be that these dozens of boxes contain tributes?"

"It's all books!"

Shi Yiwen was too lazy to explain.

"It's all books?"

"The third brother doesn't know that Zhiyuan is a book lover and has a lot of collections in his home."

Xu Weixin took the initiative to explain to Shi Yiwen, and then he looked at Shi Yiwen and said.

"I don't know when I will meet again this time..."

Before Xu Weixin could make up his feelings, the fat man shouted.

"Okay, that's right, it's not that there's no time to meet again. Zhiyuan, you go to Beijing to get a front station first, and when Xiaowu enters Beijing to take the exam, there's a place to settle down."

Xiaowu, going to the exam. After hearing what Fatty Chang said, Shi Yi finally understood. The Viagra that Fatty Chang bought from him was just to give him a gift. When he found that Shi Yiwen seemed to remember the old thing, Chang Yukun quickly winked.

"Xiao Wu, we are just mother-in-law and mother. There will be no only Zhiyuan on this official boat. If time is delayed, if there is something on the boat, I might not hold a grudge against Zhiyuan. Let's go, I ordered a table of dishes at the restaurant next to the dock to get off to Zhiyuan. When I got there, I walked and chatted."

Looking at the cloudy sky, Shi Yiwen nodded and said to Xiao Lian beside him.

"Xiao Lian, watch at home, wait for a while and you have all your luggage to be packed. You can go to the boat first."

Then Shi Yiwen went to the wharf with Chang Yukun and Xu Weixin

On the way to the pier, Shi Yiwen specially picked up the curtains and looked at the familiar streets. Although Nanjing was full of the gracefulness of Jiangnan during the rain, it was also a bit heavy. As the streets gradually faded away, his eyes became a little wet. At some point, he had regarded this place as his home, but now he was about to leave here and go to another strange place.

When we arrived at the pier, it was not as deserted as we imagined. There were hundreds of large and small ships moored on the river surface, filling the riverside near the pier. There was only a large ship moored at a trest bridge in the distance, and the surroundings were not as crowded as here.

"No, that's the boat you make. Officials who come and go from south to north all take such official boats to Beijing or go south."

Seeing Shi Yiwen looking at the big ship, Chang Yukun introduced him and patted him on the shoulder and said.

"Let's go, Zhiyuan, let's go to Yanyulou over there to have a good drink..."

The farewell wine was a bit sad. Although Fatty often deliberately made fun of him from time to time, the atmosphere was still a little depressed. Not only did he do that, but even Jiao Rong, who had only met several times, seemed a little depressed. He was called over by Xu Weixin.

Seeing that the atmosphere became a little depressed, Shi Yiwen stood up and said.

"My kind brothers, I really don't have many friends when I first arrived in Nanjing. Since it is a rare fate to meet you, I don't know when I will meet you today. I just hope that you and my brother will have a drink and have fun in the future. I will give you a glass of water and wine toast you."

After saying that, Shi Yiwen picked up the wine glass and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp. Chang Yukun, Xu Weixin and Jiao Rong also stood up to return to their respects.

On the pier, Xu Weixin and others bowed and said goodbye.

"I will send you thousands of miles away, and I will finally part with you. I wish Zhiyuan a smooth journey."

"You are kind, please take care of me. We will gather with the capital again in the future. Then..."

Before Shi Yiwen could finish his politeness, Chang Yukun shouted and scolded him.

"It's great, go quickly and don't miss the auspicious time."

"Mingda, Kunwu, weak marquis, take care of yourself!"

After smiling at them, Shi Yiwen stepped towards the high-ranking official ship.

Watching Shi Yiwen get on the boat, Chang Yukun took a breath, then sighed again, and said.

"All right, go back..."

As he said this, when he left, he couldn't help but look back. The official ship had slowly left the dock under the push of the boatman's oar.

As the official ship slowly left the dock, a carriage was parked not far from the dock. The carriage rolled up its curtains. A woman wearing a hat in the car was silently looking at the ship. When she was about to put down the roller blind, she saw someone running hurriedly past the carriage and chasing towards the pier, shouting while chasing.

"My benefactor, benefactor, etc..."

The woman in the car frowned as she heard the man's shout, and then ordered the servant beside the carriage.
