May 5th, arrived at Guzang County, Liangzhou.
The people who came to greet her outside the city were numerous, led by a middle-aged man whom Tang Xiaobai recognized as her father's deputy general, Cheng Zhidu, the inspector of the Liangzhou Governor Mansion.
Beside Cheng Zhidu stood a man in his thirties or forties, with a fair face and beard, looking scholarly, dressed in a civil servant uniform.
Though she did not recognize the man, she could guess that he was Shen Yu, the inspector at the Liangzhou Inspector Mansion.
Tang Shigong held dual positions as Governor of Liangzhou and Inspector of Liangzhou, the former overseeing military governance, and the latter managing administration.
The deputies at both the Governor Mansion and Inspector Mansion were titled inspectors, but Shen Yu's position was two ranks below Cheng Zhidu's, hence he stood slightly farther back, and Cheng Zhidu was the first to speak.
