如果理解句子中的but that

He also agreed to tell the Stapletons that Homes and I had gone to London,but that we would return to...

老师，如何理解but that? 是另一方面的意思吗，表转折吗？这是个副词短语吗？

He also agreed to tell the Stapletons that Homes and I had gone to London,but that we would return to...

tell为双宾语及物动词，后接the Staplestons作间接宾语，并列的二个that从句为直接宾语。二个that从句之间为转折关系，故用转折并列连词but，而没有用等立并列连词and。
