Zhang Shuye couldn't stand Wang Dong's behavior, but he had to endure it because he needed help from others.

You still have to say some polite words.

"As I walked along, I saw that the houses in Zhangxiaozhuang and Gaolaozhuang were all newly built, neatly arranged, and the roads were smooth and clean. It was obvious that this was all planned in a unified manner."

This question touched Wang Dong's sore spot.

"Haha! When I first bought this farm, I had a dream."

"What dream?"

"Build the best village in the Song Dynasty."

"Haha! For now, Gao Village is pretty good."

Zhang Shuye laughed, not wanting to talk any more with this man, so he went straight to the point: "Master Wang, I came here to look for Zhang Shixun. Unfortunately, he's out traveling."

"Yunyou? Who told you that?"

"A village head named Yue."

"Zhang Shixun is neither a Taoist priest nor a monk. He's just traveling around. He's just out for fun."

Zhang Shuye frowned and asked, "When will he come back?"

Wang Dong calculated that Zhang Shixun's training was almost over. "He should be back soon. If nothing unexpected happens, it will be in the next two days."

Zhang Shuye pondered for a moment and said, "Master Wang, can I stay at your manor for two days and wait for Zhang Shixun to return?"

Wang Dong was startled and asked hurriedly, "What is the matter with the distinguished guest?"

"The emperor has issued a special decree to recall Zhang Shixun, and we are here to convey it."

Wang Dong rolled his eyes. "This is puzzling. From the Emperor to the current Emperor, no one seems to like my cousin. Why are they suddenly calling him back?"

Zhang Shuye smiled awkwardly, "I suppose you've also heard of Shi Qian, the flea on the drum?"

Having said that, Wang Dong finally understood.

The government had no way to deal with Shi Qian, so they had to ask Zhang Shixun to come out of retirement.

Damn! I think of Zhang Shixun when something happens. What did I do earlier?

Wang Dong's face suddenly fell, and he said coldly: "If you are here to ask my cousin to return to his official position, then please go back. My cousin has become disheartened and does not intend to be an official anymore."

"This..." Zhang Shuye's face flushed.

The situation became awkward.

Seeing this, the eunuch said, "Master Wang, can I say something?"

Wang Dong glared at him: "No!"

The eunuch was so angry that he almost fainted.

I'm the eunuch who delivers the emperor's orders, and you don't even give me any face?

Song Jiang, who was standing next to Zhang Shuye, couldn't bear to watch any longer and bowed to Wang Dong. "I'm Song Jiang, but I have something to ask..."

When Wang Dong heard the name "Song Jiang", his eyes suddenly lit up, "What's your name? Say it again."

"Song Jiang."

"Could it be Song Jiang, the hero of Liangshan?"

Song Jiang's expression suddenly became stiff, and he said awkwardly: "Although I started the rebellion in Liangshanpo, I dare not call myself a hero."

Wang Dong waved his hand. "Whether you're a hero or not is a different matter for now... Let me ask you, did you go with the imperial court to fight Fang La?"

Song Jiang nodded.

"I once heard that you were killed by Fang La after he was captured." Wang Dong pointed at Zhang Shuye.

Everyone in the living room was amused by him.

"Since you want to wait for my cousin at the manor, I'll have someone arrange it right away."

Wang Dong said this and asked someone to make arrangements.

Zhang Shuye was puzzled when he saw that his attitude changed immediately after he talked to Song Jiang for a few words.

Could it be that the reputation of a prefect like me is not as important as that of a bandit who was recruited?

Wang Dong arranged Zhang Shuye and his party and immediately contacted Zhang Shixun in the shuttle.

"Shixun, there are some uninvited guests in the manor, and they are looking for you."

"who are they?"

Zhang Shixun's voice was weak and he seemed very frail.

"Zhang Shuye, there is another eunuch."

"Are they here for Shi Qian's matter?"

"That's right."

"Zhang Shuye came to me a while ago and wanted me to help him capture Shi Qian. I promised him that as long as he could find Shi Qian's whereabouts, I would help him."

"Hey! People have discovered Shi Qian's whereabouts."

"What? Did you let Shi Qian out again?"

Wang Dong laughed strangely and said proudly, "Since you entered the shuttle, I released Shi Qian. Now he has become a flying thief."

"What's going on?"

Wang Dong recounted everything that had happened during this period in detail, and concluded by saying, "The Song Dynasty is truly wealthy. Shi Qian only patronized four or five households and managed to secure fifty thousand taels of gold... Listen carefully, it's gold, pure golden gold."

"Holy crap! So many?"

"hehe!"

"So, the imperial court can't do anything about Shi Qian. Do they want me to come back and help them capture Shi Qian?"

"That's exactly what I mean."

"Where are they now?"

"Old man Zhang Shuye lives in Gao Village. It seems he won't stop until he sees you."

"Wang Dong, please give me some advice. What should I do?"

"That depends on what conditions the emperor offers you. You'll know when they read the imperial edict to you when you come out."

"Alright! I won't be out for another two days. Let them wait inwardly. We're not in a hurry anyway. What's in a hurry is... Ouch!"

"Shixun, what's wrong?"

"I'm lying in the treatment cabin now. My skull is cracked, my right shoulder is dislocated, my ribs are broken and not rooted, and my wrist is fractured... Damn it! Hei Wuchang was incredibly ruthless this time. He sends me to the lifeboat once a day."

"Haha! The advanced training mode isn't something anyone can handle. However, being able to lie in the lifeboat every day is a blessing for you. Don't forget, the lifeboat can strengthen your physique. It can be considered a blessing in disguise."
