Chapter 198
Spring came much earlier this year. It was only at the end of February that the snow in Yizhou melted and the river water thawed.

The city gate of Yizhou suddenly opened wide, and groups of cavalry rushed out of the gate.

"Oh! Oh! Oh!" The people who got up early and watched cheered.

After two major wars, the people of Izhou have become more and more supportive of the Sheriff's Mansion, and it seems that going to war means victory.

"Close the door!" Du He lost his usual laughter, watched the knight disappear, and ordered with a serious and calm face!

"From today on! Until they come back, the whole city will be under martial law!" Gongsun Feiyan lost his former naughtiness and said without looking back.

"Yes! I obey the order!" More than a dozen older soldiers behind him accepted the order with clasped fists.

Although Yizhou is under martial law, it is mainly aimed at Turkic people and people from the Western Regions. It has no effect on the people of Tang Dynasty. If they should go to work, they should go to work. Coal has become a pillar industry in Yizhou, and there is a large demand in Yumen Pass.

Therefore, despite the hard work of mining, the people of Izhou still enjoy it. After all, compared with farming, the income from mining is not only stable, but also much higher.

"Dang! Dang! Dang Dang! Be on alert!" On the battlements, a sentry rang the gong in his hand and shouted loudly.

"Close the door!" Du He, who had his eyes closed on the tower, suddenly opened his eyes, stood up suddenly, looked at the smoke and dust rising in the distance, and ordered with an ugly expression.He did not expect that something would happen just three days after the army left.

"Don't be the enemy!" Du He thought to himself, if it were the enemy, the 2000 people in Yizhou would not be able to defend it.

The city of Yizhou sits at a slant, so whether it is Turks or people from Yumen Pass, they all seem to come from the same direction.

"It's my own!" After waiting for a while, a figure appeared in the distance, and the sharp-eyed guard began to shout excitedly.

"Be careful, ask clearly!" Du He exhorted secretly with a sigh of relief.

Sure enough, after a while, people came to stop outside the city gate, holding the banner of the Great Tang Dynasty and wearing the same clothes as soldiers of the Great Tang Dynasty.

"Who?" Du He asked impatiently.

"I have seen the Shangguan, the last general of Longyou Dao, Cao Yiyong, was ordered by the governor to lead three thousand troops to listen to the order." Cao Yiyong rode forward, clasped his fists and said loudly.

"Is there a seal!" Although Fan Lihua was relieved, Du He was not careless and asked in a relaxed state of mind.

"Yes!" The visitor immediately handed over a seal and document.

"Open the door!" After reading it, Du He was completely relieved.

"People are coming again!" Before Cao Yiyong and the others finished entering, smoke and dust rose again in the distance.

"What!" Du He's heart tightened, and he grabbed the sword at his waist.

"Not mine!" Cao Yiyong waved his hands again and again, fearing that Du He might misunderstand.

"Go into the city!" Seeing his sincerity, Du He let go of his guard and stretched out his hand.

"Hurry up!" Cao Yiyong was also in a hurry, and stood aside to greet the soldiers loudly.

"Why is it this grandma!" Gradually seeing who was coming, Du He's face changed wildly, and he whispered to himself.

"Captain! Do you know this person!" A soldier beside Du He asked curiously.

"Quickly open the city gate!" Du He yelled loudly when he regained consciousness.

Du He's reaction almost startled the soldiers around him, and he didn't understand how the captain had such a huge reaction.

"Mother!" Gongsun Feiyan, who had just arrived, jumped up and shouted excitedly as soon as he boarded the top of the wall.

It turned out that it was Aunt Gongsun and her party who came here.

"Hey! Du He has met Aunt Hong, and several aunts!" Du He, like a slave, stepped forward to hold the horse with a nod and bow, and greeted with a smile.

"Ouch! My daughter has become thinner!" Aunt Gongsun, who was like a sister to Gongsun Feiyan, said while pulling Gongsun Feiyan distressedly.

"No way! The food here is good, the house is good, and my daughter has gained weight." Gongsun Feiyan replied shyly.

"Okay! Didn't you see there were others?" Aunt Gongsun said, patting Gongsun Feiyan's little hand lightly.

"Aunt Hong! Aunt Mei!..."

"So it's Du Er! Why don't you see Situ and the others!" Hong Fu Nu was very satisfied with Du He's attitude, and asked with a smile.

"Don't blame Aunt Hong! Eldest brother has sent troops!" Du He quickly explained.

"The troops are dispatched so soon?" Hong Fu asked slightly surprised.

"The snow melted early this year, and they sent troops three days ago!" Du He continued to explain.

"Okay! Let's come all the way, let's arrange a place to live!" Hong Fu said with a frown.

"Okay, okay, Aunt Hong please hurry up!" With this group of people, Du He felt relieved and happily led the way into the city.

"Mother! It just happened that a new house was built, why don't you stay here for now." Gongsun Feiyan persuaded.

"Why? Can't the Sheriff's Mansion house a few of us?" Hong Fu asked curiously.

"The Sheriff's Mansion has been in disrepair for a long time. Situ Situ didn't have time to repair it, so he just built a few rooms for himself to live in." Gongsun Feiyan explained.

"As long as mother and Feiyan live together." Aunt Gongsun said with a smile.

"This..." Gongsun Feiyan hesitated for a moment.

"What? Could it be that Situ boy didn't arrange a good place for my daughter?" Aunt Gongsun asked with her eyebrows upside down.

"No, no, my daughter lives in the Sheriff's Mansion!" Gongsun Feiyan quickly grabbed her mother and blurted out.

"What! You live with Situ boy!" Aunt Gongsun asked loudly with her eyes wide open.

"Mother! Keep your voice down, I live with Sister Zheng, and besides, they all have different rooms." Gongsun Feiyan blushed anxiously, looked around with guilt, and shook her mother's arm and said.

"That won't do! Boys and widows living together, this will make my daughter how to behave in the future, and Situ must be responsible." Aunt Gongsun said resolutely.

"Sister said so, what should I ask my apprentice to do? She was engaged to Kid Situ before." Hongfu immediately quit after hearing this, and said without giving an inch.

"It's about my daughter's reputation! I'm sorry that my sister cannot agree with what I said." Aunt Gongsun also argued without showing any signs of weakness.

"Hehe! In this case, my sister must fight." Hong Fujiao said with a laugh.

"It's okay for sister to understand like this!" Aunt Gongsun Liu Mei raised her eyebrows.

"Hehe! Not to mention that Li Wan and Boy Situ are engaged, even if they hadn't, if she had been able to elope with her husband back then, the apprentice would definitely be the best!" Hong Fu revealed her fault indifferently.

"Mother! Aunt Hong! Stop arguing, how can you force things about your relationship?" Gongsun Feiyan said with a dejected expression.

"No! Look at your unbelievable appearance, it's clear that your heart has been taken away!" Aunt Gongsun said, biting Gongsun Feiyan's forehead, hating that iron can't be made into steel.

"Hehe! My sister, why should I blame the younger generation? Like a mother, like a daughter!" Hong Fu reassured with a smile.

"Hmph! Because of this, we can't let her be like me, and don't have the courage to fight for it." Aunt Gongsun didn't shy away, after all, it's been many years, and these sisters know it clearly.
