Volume Three Famous Beilu County Chapter 274 The New Emperor Arrives
In troubled times and strife, this is when manpower is needed.
If we can recall the powerful disciples from outside, we will have more confidence to fight against the Zhou Dynasty.
Luo Fusheng didn't want to get involved.
It's better to find a way to break through to the first level of martial arts first. If he can't break through, his life span will be exhausted before long.
Survive, survive!
This is Luo Fusheng's goal.
Before accomplishing this goal, everything must be detoured.
"Then when you left the Far North, why didn't you take me with you?"
Lu Jiuzhang asked.
The way back was twists and turns, and it was a long way.
Fortunately, Lu Jiuzhang is a warrior. If he were an ordinary person, he might not be able to come back even if he spent his whole life.
"Well……"
Only then did Luo Fusheng remember.
When he went to Shenwuzong from the far north, he always felt that he had forgotten something.
What the heck, he actually left Lu Jiuzhang behind.
"You are getting older, please be considerate to us seniors." Luo Fusheng said with a bitter smile.
"Forget it, let's not talk about it anymore. It's all over anyway."
Lu Jiuzhang said.
He also came back from the Far North and gained something, so it was not a wasted trip.
"Second uncle, you are at the second level of martial arts, and Zhang Huanzhi is only at the third level of martial arts. Were you still unable to keep him that day?" Lu Jiuzhang asked curiously.
"Something happened!"
Luo Fusheng had no intention of hiding this from Lu Jiuzhang, but said, "While we were fighting, we awakened a god and demon."
"Gods and demons? What are they?" Lu Jiuzhang was confused.
More and more new terms appear, which also indicates that the world is not peaceful.
"An extremely powerful creature." Luo Fusheng said, "I was anxious to go back to Shenwuzong to investigate, but after I went back, I only found a few words."
"The appearance of this kind of creature will usually cause great changes in the world."
"After its appearance, it will also destroy all living beings. So far, there seems to be no way to solve the problem of gods and demons."
Luo Fusheng and Lu Jiuzhang walked towards the outside of the ruins, talking as they walked.
"It's best to seal off the Far North and prevent outsiders from entering." Luo Fusheng warned.
But blocking is easy to say, but difficult to actually implement.
The scope is too wide, and beyond the Beiyu Pass, it is not within the sphere of influence of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
"This is not something we can decide."
Lu Jiuzhang sighed.
It seems that Xintei is not easy either. There are problems and problems everywhere.
…
After returning to Beilu County, Lu Jiuzhang took the fat boy Zhou Zheng and set off.
Went to the County Bank first.
With little fat Zhou Zheng here, most people wouldn't dare to stop him.
When Sheriff Xu arrived, he had already started taking inventory.
Almost 15 million taels of silver were lost.
Seeing this shocking figure, Sheriff Xu secretly exclaimed, "Damn it, being a Bo Cao is so profitable."
Naturally, he would not think that something would happen to Li Yong.
Then Li Yong's father is a second-rank official, wouldn't it be easy to solve such a trivial matter?
"Director Lu, there is no need to make such a fuss." Sheriff Xu said, "If there is a shortfall in money, can't we just make up for it? By the way, Mr. Li went to slay demons with you, why haven't you returned yet?"
"Now is not the time to discuss Mr. Li Yong, but the matter of money." Lu Jiuzhang glanced at the fat little Zhou Zheng.
Zhou Zheng nodded and said, "I must report such a huge deficit to the new emperor. This is a serious crime of beheading, but Commander Xu, have you ever been involved in it?"
"Prince Gong has misunderstood. A new junior official has taken office, how can he be involved?" Sheriff Xu hurriedly removed himself, "On the other hand, Bo Cao works for Li Yong. He seems to be honest and responsible on weekdays, but he didn't expect to commit such an evil act."
"Even if you, Prince Gong, don't report it, the junior officials still have to report it."
Sheriff Xu looked righteous and stern.
If you didn't know his behavior, you might really think that he is a good county guard.
"Then please trouble Magistrate Xu to draft a memorial and explain what happened." Lu Jiuzhang said.
"It's natural!"
Sheriff Xu said, "I will start drafting it after I return to the Sheriff's Mansion."
After Commander Xu planned to go back, he immediately thought of a way to notify Li Yong and asked him to make up the money.
At this juncture, nothing can happen.
The county governor's house was short of money and Li Yong was guilty, but county governor Xu would definitely be punished as well.
"No need, just draw up the memorial here."
Little Fatty Zhou Zheng said.
"About Li Yong, we must make it clear." Lu Jiuzhang said, "Under the huge deficit, Li Yong was unable to repay his debts. When he was suppressing demons in the ruins world, he fled in fear of crime."
"Fortunately, our director came forward and stopped him. However, Li Cheng still did not repent and attacked me. In the end, I killed him."
Lu Jiuzhang said slowly.
"What?"
Sheriff Xu was shocked.
Li Yong is actually dead!
Only one night has passed, how could there be such a drastic change?
But this is also a good thing for Governor Xu.
When Li Yong died, Lu Jiuzhang offended Lord Shangshu.
The more enemies Lu Jiuzhang has, the greater the possibility of his death.
He wrote the memorial truthfully and handed it to Zhou Zheng.
The Jinjia captain from Beiyu Pass has also arrived at the county bank.
Zhou Zheng ordered these golden armored captains to station here and seal off the scene.
…
The next morning.
The streets in Beilu County are extremely clean, and the small merchants and hawkers who used to sell on the streets are no longer there.
On the other hand, some shops are open, and shopkeepers greet customers with smiles when they see them.
The whole county seems to be a little less smoky than before.
The first to arrive at the county town were pairs of soldiers in golden armor, and they quickly took control of every corner of the county town.
Although no one has appeared in the open, it is the safest day since Beilu County was established.
When the sun first rose, a massive honor guard entered the Beilu County City from the South City Gate.
Along the road, people lined the streets to welcome him.
At the front were hundreds of martial arts masters opening the way.
The first carriage was pulled by sixteen powerful monsters. The carriage was huge, comparable to some residents' houses.
The new emperor was sitting on the dragon, with two prime ministers on his left and right, and the great Confucian Xu Shi next.
Behind him were hundreds of carriages, but none of these carriages were as luxurious as the one on the New Emperor.
These carriages slowly drove into Beilu County.
After a while, a eunuch said loudly, "The new emperor is on a patrol and has arrived at Beilu County."
"Long live the Emperor, long live, long live the Emperor!"
On both sides of the street, people knelt down one after another.
They had heard about the newly appointed emperor of the Zhou Dynasty, but what the emperor looked like, these people had no idea.
Many of them have never even left Beilu County in their entire lives.
The first person to greet him was Commander Xu. When he heard the four words "The new emperor goes on patrol", Commander Xu felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
Why didn't he know about this at all?
Never even heard of it?
Isn't it too cowardly for me to be a county guard? This chapter has been completed!
