"Well... the management model in the north is different because it is close to the Yan Kingdom. Your Majesty has not implemented the so-called prefecture, county and state governance here. Therefore, this area belongs to... the warlord zone!" Wen Ranran nodded a little.
"Huh?" Queen Tao didn't react.
"In other words, there is no prefect in Youzhou City, only the city lord!"
Wen Ranran's words gave the final word to this incident.
Queen Tao frowned again, her eyebrows twisted into the character "Chuan".
"There is nothing we can do about it. After all, the territory is so big... Northern Xinjiang has been in a state of peace to a certain extent for so many years. It is inevitable that the people below will do something about it! The ethnic groups here live together and belong to the intersection zone.
Just like the Southwest, it’s really difficult to manage!”
Wen Ranran spread her hands, "The chief of Youzhou City is... the son of the previous Prime Minister Ji before the Wen family, Ji Tong. Of course, this is my guess, because the current lord of Youzhou City is named Ji Tong.
It’s the same, it’s a direct change of the pronunciation.”
"That Ji Xuyuan..."
"I don't know yet, but Ji Xuyuan recognizes us, so we should disguise ourselves as much as possible when going out!"
If you encounter it, you will be in big trouble.
The carriage drove through the city for some time, and finally checked into a relatively low-key inn. The innkeeper's surname was Meng, and her name was Meng Sanniang. It was said that she was the third eldest child in the family, and she was a middle-aged woman.
"Are these distinguished guests going to stay in the hotel?!" Meng Sanniang knew as soon as she saw these people that they were definitely not ordinary people, and she immediately said with a smile.
Wen Ranran smiled and didn't say anything more to the other party. She just said, "Madam boss, we've booked the room!"
Meng Sanniang was a smart person, so she was unequivocal and immediately packed up the upper room.
"Guys, if you have anything to do, just give me direct instructions!" Meng Sanniang stared at Wen Ranran with a smile, her eyes full of curiosity.
Wen Ranran felt the other party's eyes and was a little curious.
It was obviously the first time they met, but the other person always gave her a strange feeling, as if she knew who she was. Wen Ranran took another look and realized that she didn't seem to be looking at herself, but around her.
Of...Tao Yuanyuan?
Maybe he was overthinking it... Wen Ranran sighed and returned to the room.
After running around for many hours, Wen Ranran was very tired. Everyone took this time to freshen up. Wen Ranran finally took off his armor and lay on the bed like a dead dog.
"Dong Qing has already checked the information on Ji Tong, and the results will be available tonight at most. Tianxuan is also looking for opportunities to sneak into the city lord's mansion, and is just waiting for the news about Du Tianji's fortune telling today! I hope
That's good news!" Wen Ranran reported the progress of the matter, Tao Yuanyuan nodded, and smiled slightly when she heard the last person's name.
"It doesn't matter if it's good news or not, I don't care whether he lives or dies!"
Wen Ranran: "..."
Although she knew that Queen Tao was stubborn, Wen Ranran never expected that she could stick to her heart to this extent.
"You... seem to have become a different person after leaving the palace..." Wen Ranran looked at her mother-in-law anxiously, feeling deeply that she might have to worry about her father-in-law's marriage for a long time in the future.
Tao Yuanyuan just glanced at the other party lightly, "Are you really not aware or are you pretending not to know?"
Wen Ranran was confused, "Huh? What do I know?"
Tao Yuanyuan wanted to say something else, but suddenly she saw Wen Ranran applying white cream on herself, and the bright red palace sand was exposed on her arm...
"You..." Tao Yuanyuan stared at the Shou Gongsha on Wen Ranran's arm, "You and Shuang'er haven't..."
Wen Ranran was stunned, and her eyes followed Tao Yuanyuan to her arm.
The corner of Tao Yuanyuan's mouth twitched harshly, as if she thought of something, but she shook her head in pain.
She hugged Wen Ranran with a guilty expression on her face.
"Ranran... it's... the queen mother, I'm sorry for you!"
