When Shi Yi thinks about Xianyu, someone always comes to disturb her.

When the doctor saw him coming back, he packed up his medicine jars, picked them up, said hello to Weidong and went out.

He also wanted to go to the kitchen to eat.

Only Weidong went back to the tent to eat alone, while everyone else ate in the temporary kitchen, a large group of people were having a lively meal.

Ye Qingfeng saw the doctor come in and spoke to him: "Why did you come so late? The food will get cold soon." It gets very cold on the grassland as soon as it gets dark, and the food does get cold quickly.

The doctor took the meal and replied, "I just went to change the medicine for Manager Wei."

Ye Qingfeng raised his eyebrows and said, "Why don't you just send it over? Xie Jiu will be happy to change it for him." Everyone knows this.

The doctor said nonchalantly, "He was not in the tent when I went there. Shopkeeper Weidong asked me to help change it."

No wonder, he wasn’t there.

Everyone was having a lively meal. Ye Qingfeng thought of those women and asked the kitchen staff, "Have you delivered food to those women?"

The person in the kitchen replied: "It's ready and will be delivered soon."

Hearing him say this, Ye Qingfeng nodded. As long as he hadn't forgotten, it was good. They were almost at the border town, so it would be better not to make any mistakes.

He drank mutton soup in big gulps, which was the most effective in driving away the cold.

Weidong took the cake handed to him by Xie Jiu and ate it in small bites.

While Xie Jiu was eating with big mouthfuls, he secretly looked at him to see if he had calmed down. He felt uncomfortable when Wei Dong ignored him.

They will almost reach the border town the day after tomorrow. He needs to find a reason to act alone. He wants to meet General Xiao.

Zhang Laoliu is still needed for the border town affairs, and he should be brought over.

On the second day, the caravan's carriages were loaded with ore and set off for the border town in a mighty procession. Finally, they saw the city gate in the distance.

After all, it is a military checkpoint. The city walls are full of soldiers, holding weapons in their hands, looking majestic.

There are soldiers strictly guarding both sides of the city gate, and the pass documents are checked very strictly. The business documents of the caravans must also go through layers of inspection.

Fortunately, the caravan led by Wei Dong had all the necessary documents, but the caravan had a lot of goods and herds of horses, so they couldn't enter the city as fast as they wanted.

There were people waiting at the border town office early on, and when they saw Weidong's caravan appear at the city gate, they immediately went back to notify the office.

The people from the office will meet them at the city gate. Weidong heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the manager of the office. Then someone will complete the formalities for them.

Wei Dong whispered a few words to the office manager. After the manager learned the number of ore fleets, he rubbed his hands excitedly. He called out and all the guys in the office came forward to help.

Wei Dong and Xie Jiu can escape early, and leave the matters in the caravan to the manager.

Wait until the manager has transported all the goods to the office, then rest for two days, sort the goods, and leave only the items that are suitable for sale nearby, while the rest of the goods will be sent to the next office.

So they need to be sorted before they can set off again. Now they have some free time and can do their own things.

Wei Dong brought Xie Jiu to the yamen and reported the matter of the rescued girl to the government, which attracted a lot of attention in the yamen.

Generally speaking, few people would bring back women from a bandit’s den, but Wei Dong brought them back openly and even processed temporary household registration for them.

Because of the special circumstances of these women, their household registration cannot be completed in a short time. After all, there is no such thing as the Internet here.

They need to find out the native places of these girls and verify them before they can re-register them according to the circumstances. Before that, they can only apply for a temporary household registration for them.

Or when they get married, they can apply for a new household registration with their husband's family.

There is no rush for these. Weidong will first file a case for them. In the future, even if these girls are registered with the government, they will not be dealt with arbitrarily.

Weidong paid a considerable amount of tax to the government. One was the tax for the caravan, and the other was protection money for the girls. With this bill, the girls would be protected by the government in the border town in the future.

Although it is a temporary household registration, those who pay taxes will receive special protection.

While Weidong was handling these matters, King Dongshan also successfully contacted his people, and several secret guards were so excited that they almost cried.

Who could understand the pain they suffered from being scolded by the emperor from time to time? Since the disappearance of Prince Dongshan, the emperor's temper had become much more irritable.

They are finally getting through this.

This group of secret guards was sent out after King Dongshan disappeared and hid in the government office in the border town, because the destination of King Dongshan's official mission was the border town.

So they were sent here to wait and see. To be honest, they didn't expect to really gain anything, after all, everyone around King Dongshan had died.

There is a high probability that he will not be able to come to the border town.

However, when assigning tasks, the secret guard leader Lou Ding still adhered to the principle of rather wasting some manpower than missing out, and he still deployed a small team in the border town to secretly explore the surroundings for any clues.

More secret guards are still digging deep underground and conducting repeated investigations near Ji'an (where King Dongshan disappeared).

King Dongshan followed Weidong with his eyes the whole time and explained several things to the new secret guards he had contacted, asking them to focus on investigating the mining situation in the nearby mines.

A team of secret guards was also sent to monitor General Chen's family, paying close attention to who his family had close contacts with and who they exchanged letters with.

Several generals of the Chen family need to be supervised by someone.

Another thing is to send a letter to the imperial city to report that he is still alive.

The emperor's brother will naturally send someone to him, and then it will be much easier for him to handle the affairs of the border town.

After Wei Dong finished all the paperwork and paid all the taxes, he took Xie Jiu back to the office and instructed the office manager to prepare a place to accommodate the girl.

As soon as the girls who returned from the caravan entered the office, Weidong gave them a big surprise.

Their temporary household registration tickets.

With this thing, the girls can go to the government office tomorrow to exchange for temporary household registration books, and they will all be people with status in the future.

Each of the women's faces was filled with smiles, showing their longing for a happy life.

They finally climbed out of the dark abyss. Although they didn't know what was waiting for them ahead, now was a new beginning.

However, Xie Jiu brought Zhang Laoliu to his side and took care of him personally.

Wei Dong was actually very confused as to why Xie Jiu had kept this horse bandit and had not handed him over to the government, and now wanted to keep him with him.

Xie Jiu didn't explain anything. He knew that as long as he didn't ask, Wei Dong would generally not ask.

Even he didn't quite agree with his own actions.

Weidong glanced at Zhang Laoliu and saw that he was still limping a little when he walked. It was all because of the stab wound caused by Xie Jiu himself, but now he was standing obediently beside Xie Jiu.
