The convoy moved slowly and the city gate appeared before their eyes.
Guo Tianyang and his men were waiting far outside the city, and they saw the convoy appear.
Guo Tianyang suddenly felt relieved, and his mind couldn't help but become complicated.
Logically speaking, Xiao Fang is a bit mean, but he knows how to deal with things!
It was really a shame that he was not adopted as a godson in the early years. Now he has become the commander of the Jinyiwei, a high position with great power, and his family in the East Factory may not take him seriously.
Now we need to make the relationship better...
Fang Zhengyi was walking at the front of the convoy. He saw Guo Tianyang at a glance and dismounted.
Guo Tianyang hurriedly went to greet him, all the wrinkles on his face showing: "My dear brother! You are finally back, I missed you so much! The people below should have told you that you are now the commander of the Jinyiwei."
"Got it, Xiao Guo."
"Xiao...Xiao Guo?"
Guo Tianyang was struck by lightning, and the expression on his face changed all the time, and soon became ferocious.
I am Fang Zhengyi from CNM!
You are no longer my boss after you get promoted? It's a pity that my family came to the city gate to welcome you early in the morning!
You used to call me Brother Guo, but now you call me Xiao Guo?
Fang Zheng hadn't slept for a day or two and was extremely tired. He suddenly realized that he had called the wrong name, and hurriedly went forward to hug Guo Tianyang and said with a smile, "Brother Guo, I was just kidding!"
"Hey...hey...brother, you just like to joke around." Guo Tianyang pulled a big face, full of displeasure.
"Don't be upset! I didn't sleep well during the whole journey, and my head feels dizzy! Look, I brought you some local specialties. Xie Xian, bring those local specialties to me."
After the gifts were delivered, Guo Tianyang's expression gradually improved.
He looked at Fang Zheng once or twice, and only felt relieved when he saw how exhausted he looked.
Damn! I thought this little bastard was going to be promoted to a higher position, but he turned against me after getting promoted!
When he opened the gift package, a stinky smell came out and Guo Tianyang's face fell again.
"Brother, it stinks. What do you mean by this?"
"What do you mean? This is salted fish, sea fish. It's a special species, we don't have it here! If I bring you something else, will it be able to keep it on the way?" Fang Zheng said confidently, "Okay, I can still trick you, I'll bring this to His Majesty as well."
When Guo Tianyang heard that it was the same gift as the emperor's, he became happy again in an instant, and said with a smile: "My dear brother, you are so thoughtful. Come back to the palace with me quickly. His Majesty is thinking about you and thinking about you every day."
Fang Zhengyi looked around and asked, "Isn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince here?"
"Here we are. His Highness is at the city gate. I asked him to come out and greet him. Let's go into the city first."
The group rode their horses towards the city and soon arrived at the city gate.
Li Yuanzhao was looking around at the city gate. When he saw Fang Zhengyi, he immediately waved his hand excitedly: "Old Fang! Old Fang! Here!"
Fang Zhengyi was also refreshed, he dismounted from his horse and greeted him enthusiastically: "Your Highness, I'm back!"
As the two approached each other, Li Yuanzhao was so excited that he opened his mouth but couldn't say a word.
Then he rushed forward, held his shoulders and shook them violently, and shouted, "I...I thought you were dead! Why didn't you send a letter back after you left?"
"I understand, Your Highness, I understand..." Fang Zhengyi felt a warm current in his heart, and he didn't resist even though he was shaken.
People who were entering and leaving the city gathered around to watch. When Fang Zheng saw that there were so many people, he pulled Li Yuanzhao into the city and said as he walked, "Your Highness, there are too many people here. Let's go in and talk. A lot of things happened along the way."
"Hey, don't talk about you being outside. A lot of things happened in the palace. My father was almost assassinated. Fortunately, your penicillin saved him. Otherwise, I really don't know what to do." Li Yuanzhao complained in a low voice: "How could such a big living person disappear? Go back and tell me in detail."
Fang Zhengyi was shocked: "Your Majesty was assassinated? How is he now?"
"Why are you so anxious? Didn't I tell you that penicillin saved his life and he's in good health now? Why don't you ask me?"
Three black lines appeared on Fang Zheng's forehead.
Emperor, how can you not care when something happens to my future father-in-law and my immediate superior? What could happen to you at such a young age?
"How is His Highness?"
Upon hearing his question, Li Yuanzhao said excitedly: "I helped you build a vegetable garden in the eastern suburbs, and I have already sold a crop of vegetables there. Business is booming, and the demand is outstripping supply!"
"Ordinary vegetables cost ten times as much, but they are all sold out before they are even grown. I am planning to raise the price to twenty times, but it will be hard to sell them now that the weather is hot."
Fang Zhengyi grinned.
Twenty times!? What is a robbery farm?
But the prince has learned a lot. Supply and demand determine the price! The vegetables in the greenhouse have nothing to do with ordinary people. Since the dog owners are rich, no matter how much they sell, it is not expensive!
"Your Highness is wise. How is the princess?" Fang Zheng asked.
"Also, the newspaper is also a problem right now. You don't know that during the time you were back, Shen Yi has passed the exam and we have recruited a large number of people."
"I bought a new place, and the newspaper expanded its staff by hiring another 200 people. The new reporters were paid one or two taels of salary each per month, but they thought it was too little and said the food in the cafeteria was expensive. They often complained when I was not around. They thought I didn't know..." Li Yuanzhao chattered on.
Fang Zhengyi didn't hear a word and asked again, "Your Highness, how is the princess?"
Li Yuanzhao stopped and his face fell: "Why do you always ask her what she does? Does it have anything to do with you?"
"How can it not be related? The people's food, clothing, housing and transportation are important matters! Your Highness is in charge of the textile factory, how can I not ask about it?" Fang Zhengyi defended.
