After receiving the letter, Qin Sining also replied to Marquis Heng.
King Pingxi had ulterior motives and he must guard Chuzhou and wait for the court's rescue to arrive. He must not act rashly.
No need for Qin Sining to tell him, Marquis Heng knew it.
It is impossible to act rashly.
King Pingxi and the State of Yan were fighting on the surface, but it might also be to lure him to leave Chuzhou.
Even if the opponent doesn't have this intention at first, once Henghou gives the opponent a chance, the enemy will not hesitate.
He could tell the importance. It didn't matter if he couldn't repel the Yan soldiers. If he lost Chuzhou, he wouldn't have to live anymore.
So, Marquis Heng was in Chuzhou, waiting with peace of mind for Zhao Xiaole to come.
Zhao Xiaole has a really hard life.
After the war in the south and the north, we still had to clean up the mess in the west.
But there was nothing he could do.
During the war, the Queen, Chang Kun, and Ruhua all made various contributions, and they could not just sit back and watch.
At the same time, he also wanted to find out the details of Xuan Shui.
Completely solve this hidden danger.
Xuanshui is not only highly skilled in martial arts, but also has a mysterious origin. Zhao Xiaole has checked a lot of information, but has never found a person like him.
It's like it jumped out of thin air.
Since he couldn't find it himself, he could only turn to those who could, Lu Qingbai and the Shifang Walker behind him.
Sure enough, Lu Qingbai had never heard of Xuanshui.
He sent a letter to his teacher, Traveler of the Ten Directions, in which he described in detail some of the details about Xuanshui that Zhao Xiaole knew.
Just wait for the reply from Shifang Walker.
Turning to Shifang Walker for help naturally comes at a cost, especially since Lu Qingbai was a big help.
He prepared Shi Fang Walker's transparent potion and fumigated the hot air balloon using the method of cooking the raw materials.
Zhao Xiaole was able to make the hot air balloon invisible. Although there were flaws when viewed up close (this was inevitable, after all, the hot air balloon was too big), after it rose to the sky, Zaha's eyesight was able to detect the flaws.
Zhao Xiaole was very satisfied with this. Zaha's eyes were equipped with high-power telescopes. If he could see some flaws, it meant there were no flaws.
The condition Zhao Xiaole paid was to allow Lu Qingbai to participate in the steam engine project.
How could Lu Qingbai not know that he was a profiteer?
After thinking for a while, he nodded in agreement.
There is no point in arguing with this kind of person, but if you ask for information from Shifang Walker, if you need any reward, the other party will mention it in the letter.
Lu Qingbai is considered a voluntary worker, and he also needs to provide good after-sales service.
Zhao Xiaole does everything he can.
The practitioners from all directions have a general understanding of the matter, and they have cooperated twice without any problems.
The key is that Xuanshui also mentioned the name of Shifang Walker, which means that Shifang Walker is likely to recognize Xuanshui.
Not long after, the letter from Traveler Shifang came back.
Without mentioning any conditions, just nine words were written on it, "The journey is long and safe, so pack lightly and travel lightly."
Zhao Xiaole was confused.
How could the Shifang Traveler be like Xuan Shui? He always liked to talk about things in the clouds and mist, so he had to consult Lu Qingbai.
Lu Qingbai explained: "The meaning of this sentence is very simple. Master said that there is no danger in the journey to Chuzhou, and the Marquis does not need to bring too many guards."
However, Lu Qingbai only understood the superficial meaning, but he also didn’t understand what Shifang Walker wanted to say?
What he asked was obviously news about Xuan Shui.
Why is the answer wrong?
Zhao Xiaole actually understood something. What he was most worried about was not that he couldn't find Xuanshui. Anyway, Xuanshui would definitely look for him.
The question is, how to deal with Xuanshui?
Since Shifang Xingzhe told him that Lu Yuan was fine, it meant that Shifang Xingzhe not only knew the details of Xuanshui, but also saw at a glance what Zhao Xiaole was most worried about, which was whether Xuanshui would look for him before arriving in Chuzhou.
trouble?
Zhao Xiaole had to sigh inwardly, this old guy's vision was really vicious.
He actually guessed his own hidden worries.
It is also possible that when he was on the first floor, the Shifang Walker was on the tenth floor, and what he thought was a secret was clearly visible to others.
However, Zhao Xiaole could not completely believe Shifang Walker's words.
What if he and Xuan Shui are in the same group?
At this moment, he really wanted to kill someone and see if they could provide him with some useful information.
Soon, Zhao Xiaole breathed out a sigh of relief.
He didn't expect that a small amount of Xuan Shui would actually make him anxious.
Is it a blessing or a curse? It is a disaster that cannot be avoided. No matter if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire in front of him? So many strong winds and waves have come through?
Are you still afraid that his little Xuan Shui will be successful?
After Zhao Xiaole made up his mind, he began to think about candidates for his companions.
The Royal Forest Army cannot be taken directly with him. There are too many people and he is too obvious. If Xuanshui really does something small,
Relying on the numerical superiority of the Royal Guards may not necessarily work.
It may also be a burden.
If he really brings many people with him, he might even make the travelers from all directions look down upon him.
Although compared with life, being looked down upon is nothing.
After thinking for a while, he asked Lu Qingbai, "Your master didn't tell me any specific information. Can it be understood that when I arrive in Chuzhou, I will naturally explore the details of Xuanshui?"
Lu Qingbai thought for a while and said: "It can be said that if the master did not tell you directly, there must be other reasons. Even if the prince cannot find any clues about Xuan Shui, the master will definitely let someone tell you."
Zhao Xiaole nodded.
If that's the case, let's do it this way.
He didn't need to explain anything else before leaving.
Although Qin Sining and the prince are two women, there is no problem for them to stay in the capital and take charge of their own affairs.
Angel has a special status, so it is safer to stay in the capital.
Of course, Zhao Xiaole didn't take anyone else with him. Considering Xuan Shui's possible revenge, Zhao Xiaole might not be able to protect everyone in Chuzhou.
So, let’s leave everyone behind.
It will be clear to those who need companionship.
The first is Chang Kun. According to his and Ruhua's wishes, they must go together.
Ruhua still can’t leave.
Then let Chang Kun go.
When he left, he naturally had to take the Royal Guards with him. Zhao Xiaole allowed him to take two thousand Royal Guards with him, which was basically the earliest batch.
They are all the best among the best.
The remaining three thousand people, led by Meng He, continued to stay in the capital. He also told Qin Sining that the Royal Forest Army could hand over power to Ruhua when necessary.
Of course, he was still referring to the Queen.
Qin Sining understood immediately.
Zhao Xiaole was hinting to her to secretly protect Ruhua's safety.
Naturally, she couldn't help but feel jealous, but Zhao Xiaole put her off again. Now, he has no clue at all about the problems he faces.
I have no intention of having to deal with these issues with other women.
The remaining candidates were simple. Zhao Xiaole still gave priority to Zaha. This kind of marksman can be said to be a strategic resource.
