Li Chenan left Jingning County and entered Jingning Mountain and headed towards Shuzhou.

On the fifth day of the second month of the 24th year of Zhaohua, Su Yian, who had been in Sanwei Bookstore for fifteen years, had arranged the rest of the bookstore and brought a simple luggage to Kyoto.

Before going to Kyoto, he wrote a letter to his wife.

There are only two sentences in the letter:

"I have met Wang Zhenghaoxuan, a good son-in-law, and a good match for Xiao Meng, don't stop him!"

"Spring has arrived. Madam can go to Kyoto. I will wait for you in Kyoto, so I miss you very much!"

There is also Sanwei Bookstore in Liuxiayin, so the students bid farewell to Su Yian at the south gate of Jingning County.

That day, the rising sun was just right.

After saying a word from each other, Su Yian turned around and left, touched his forehead that was still slightly painful, and recited with great enthusiasm:

"It is difficult to walk, it is difficult to walk, and there are many misaligned roads. Where is it now?

There will be times when the wind and waves are long, and the clouds sails will spread across the sea!"

...

...

Kyoto Yujing City.

Early fog.

The wind is already blowing on the face.

Yuelai Inn.

After the morning exercise in the yard, the prince of Wu State Wu Qian took the towel sent by his maid and wiped his face. Suddenly, he turned his head and looked at the young man holding a sword standing beside him.

"Sanlang, is there any news about Seven Swords?"

"have."

“How to say it?”

“It has been down the mountain.”

“…where are we going?”

"Shuzhou."

“How long does it take?”

Sanlang pondered for three breaths, "It depends on the mood of the junior sister."

Wu Qian was stunned, "Little Junior Sister? Xia Hua?"

Saburo nodded, as if his eyes, which were originally very melancholy, had shined with some light at this moment because he heard this name.

"The Seven Swords of Tianyin Pavilion are the youngest junior sister, but the younger sister is the future owner of Tianyin Pavilion."

"The little junior sister grew up in Tianshan Mountains since she was a child. She has always been curious about the world, so she will inevitably go around and stop."

"Besides, the journey from Tianshan Mountain to Shuzhou is long, so it is unpredictable."

Wu Qian did not complain about this, because Tianyin Pavilion and Xijian Tower are both the two major martial arts holy places in the Wu Kingdom, and the imperial power has never interfered in their behavior.

However, Wu Qian asked:

"What is the realm of summer flowers now?"

"I have been in seclusion for two years, and now I have broken through the middle level of the two realms."

Wu Qian was very happy, "In this way, her Tianmo piano sound should have been small, or it may be able to surpass Dugu Han in the Sword Cleaning Tower."

"She needs a good piano, but unfortunately Qinjian Villa is gone."

"I heard that Qinjian Villa built a divine zither called Raoliang?"

“That’s right, but I don’t know whereabouts.”

"I will pay attention."

At this moment, Yu Dingzhi, the Minister of Rites, came over.

He bowed and said:

"Your Highness, Ning Guo, agrees to negotiate today, and the time will be decided by Your Highness."

Wu Qian carried his hands on his back and looked at the gray sky with mist, and suddenly smiled:

"Wen Zhuoyu... I really understand this palace."

"Then it's time to Si... In fact, negotiations are no longer important. Ning Guo's attitude has already explained everything in the past month."

"But I still want to go and have a look."

"When I write a letter to my father!"

Wu Qian walked up the second floor and arrived at the room where Yun Shuxian lived.

He wrote a letter here and handed it to Yu Dingzhi, then he looked at Yun Shuxian with a surprised look on his face.

"The battle at Wuyaguan is inevitable, but not now!"

"But the matter of war must be prepared first, so the matter of transporting food and grass to the 100,000 troops of Qichengzhai in the Lower Yuanzhou should be put on the agenda."

He stood up, walked slowly to the window, squinted his eyes slightly and looked at the thawed Yudai River outside the window, and said after a moment of silence:

"If the seven swords of Tianyin Pavilion can kill Li Chen'an... Ningguo will inevitably be in chaos again."

"I am going to set off for the next two days to return home. After the ceremony of the palace ascendance ceremony is over... Regardless of Li Chen'an's life and death, I will personally lead the imperial army to seize Wuya Pass!"

"Since Ningguo has such tough integrity, since Wen Zhuoyu thought he was barefoot and was not afraid of wearing shoes... The battle of our palace's personal battle was no longer about gaining Wuya Pass, but... All Annan Road in Ningguo was included in Wuguo's

territory!"

Yun Shuxian pondered for three breaths, "The Red Flame Army has Wu Mian and Yan Jinong, who are holding flags, and their strength cannot be underestimated!"

Wu Qian's mouth rippled, "So what?"

"War wars not only require the lives of soldiers, but ultimately they must fall above national strength!"

"I have roughly figured out the power of Ningguo's country these days. It is not a tiger, it is a sheep!"

"It's still a sick sheep!"

"Wen Zhuoyu is just doing some superficially tough articles to cover up the panic in his heart!"

Wu Qian turned around and waved his hand: "Let's go to Honglu Temple to talk to Cheng Jingting!"

"I can't get it from the paper, so I will use the sword of Wu from the Iron Cavalry to get it myself!"

...

...

Royal Palace.

Government Affairs Hall.

Cheng Jingting, the minister of the ministry, was sitting in Wen Zhuoyu’s public room at this moment.

"He said he was coming to talk, or should he follow the original method?"

Wen Zhuoyu closed a memorial in front of him and nodded, "It seems that this prince, you don't want to continue to understand our Ningguo."

He walked over, cooked a pot of tea, and said:

"He knew in his heart that this negotiation was meaningless, but he still wanted to come and talk, which means that he had made up his mind to send troops after he went back... so,"

Wen Zhuoyu leaned over and looked at Cheng Jingting, "I remember there is an open space not far behind Honglu Temple. When you call the Fireworks Bureau, you can get a few fireworks to go there to set it off."

Cheng Jingting was stunned: "What a pity!"

"Listen to me and let them go."

"Scare that prince, he will definitely ask you, remember to blow into the sky!"

"This prince has heard of fireworks, and he has even visited the ruins at the headquarters of the Yulong Society."

"He knew the power of fireworks, especially when the Regent was in the battle of Wusanyuan. With the fireworks, the Regent fought against tens of thousands of people, and he was very worried about the fireworks."

"This time let him experience it yourself. If he asks to go and see, you can take him to see the scene after the explosion."

He boils rain and pours tea, "It is best to scare him off."

"If he could scare him so much that he would not dare to attack Ning Guo within three to five years... then he would not have any chance again."

Cheng Jingting picked up the teacup and grinned and said, "You kid, I like your little thoughts."

Wen Zhuoyu glared at him, Cheng Jingting drank a cup of tea, put down the teacup, and hurried towards the firearm bureau.

Li Wenhou, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, walked in with an account book.

He placed the account book in front of Wen Zhuoyu and said, "After counting the greedy items of Jiangnan Road, all of which were sold out in silver, 2.3674836 billion yuan, 2.3674836 billion yuan

Ten taels!"

Wen Zhuoyu nodded slightly, but there was not much joy on his face. Instead, he asked: "Does the snow disaster in Mobei Province have been counted? "

"The Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, Mobei Province, and the most severely affected are Youzhou and Yingzhou."

"The officials sent by the Ministry of Revenue are still verified, but the officials estimate that at least 300,000 people have been affected by the disaster... This matter may not be hidden because the victims have already gone south."

"Well, you don't need to hide it. Just follow the number of 500,000 victims, and use the regent's idea to allocate one billion taels from this batch of silver... and let them go to Youzhou to build a city."

Li Wenhou was shocked: "Go to Youzhou to build a city?"

"Yes, work-for-relief... If the money is not enough, build a solid city wall first!"
