After separating from Yan Siyu, the governor of Anyang County, Luochuan did not meet with people from Guang County and Yongchang County, nor did he greet the heads of sects such as Jinjianmen, Xiaoyao Valley and Baishou Mountain, and just took his own people with him.
Left the Summer Palace.
Su Yiming stayed with Yan Siyu as Lijun's envoy and left the Summer Palace with everyone in Anyang County.
Let's say that Luo Chuan and his party boarded the carriages respectively, and Lijun Qingqi cleared the way, leaving the Summer Palace and heading towards Lijun's courtyard. However, not far from the Summer Palace, the road became muddy and difficult to navigate, and was blown everywhere by the strong wind.
The debris thrown up caused the convoy to move slowly.
Luo Chuan sat in a large carriage and opened the curtains, taking the lead in breaking the silence in the carriage. "After such an ordeal, Xingcheng's population will probably drop by another 10% or 20%..." There was still a situation in the carriage.
There was silence, no one responded to his words.
Luochuan looked back and saw Qianxue sitting in the farthest corner from Luochuan, reading quietly, as if she hadn't heard him at all, while Shadow was sitting by another window looking out.
Hua Yu, who didn't know what she was thinking, saw this and finally replied, "Maybe there will be more."
"Why?" Luo Chuan asked Hua Yu, but his eyes looked at Qian Xue.
Hua Yu slowly lowered her head and did not look at anyone, "Xingcheng was originally a big trading city. After the war between the princes started, many of the original trade routes were naturally cut off. In addition, Yongchang County lost the land of three warehouses in the first battle. It has never been
The original core hinterland has become a land on three sides. Merchants and wealthy households are naturally more reluctant to stay here. The rich people have left, and those who work for them have no choice but to leave. The population begins to continue to decline, until I heard that Xingcheng will be held
After the Annan Conference, this downward trend started to stop, but after what happened today, I am afraid that many people who were originally hesitating between leaving and not leaving will also leave."
Luo Chuan withdrew his eyes from Qianxue, nodded and said, "Ordinary people will never see such a vision of heaven and earth in several lifetimes. Not to mention them, even I felt the terrifying power of doomsday.
I’m frightened and can’t be at peace.”
】
In the sky at this moment, the muffled thunder and explosions are no longer as strong and frequent as before, but the terrifying momentum falling from the sky is still unabated. Even a mortal like Hua Yu will feel heavy, as if the sky will collapse at some point.
.
"The vision of heaven and earth is on the one hand, and on the other hand it is...some things that happened in the meeting hall before," Hua Yu lowered her head and continued, "There were too many people coming from all sides in the hall at that time, and the news will definitely be
It spread quickly, and with the help of thoughtful people behind the scenes, I am afraid that everyone in Xingcheng who is well-informed will know about it in less than two days. Many people originally hoped that the Annan Conference held in the four counties could bridge the gap between the four counties to a certain extent.
The rift between the counties seems to be impossible now, and Xingcheng, as a place on three sides, is too dangerous."
"That makes sense," Luo Chuan responded casually, then looked at Qianxue and asked, "Qianxue, what do you think of today's events?"
Qianxue didn't even raise her head, and continued to read while replying, "In the Annan Conference, you consolidated the relationship with Cangyan Sword Sect and Youxian Sect, and got many monks with extraordinary potential in the Third Realm of Middle School as guardians. What's more important??
What's amazing is that you got a Tingfeng Pavilion completely, and even earned a wife silently. No matter how many twists and turns there are during the period, you are still the biggest winner.
, in addition to Guangjun, although they did not get Tingfeng Pavilion in the end, they did get half of Xiaoyao Valley and the largest number of monks in the Third Realm as guardians. It was a worthwhile trip. Yongchang County was just expected.
The winner of the Hundred Beasts Mountain is considered to be neither a profit nor a loss. Only Anyang County is considered a complete loser. Not only did it not get many guardians, but it also didn't have any Taoist officials. It even lost half of the Xiaoyao Valley that was originally in the bag.
, it’s really a stretch.”
"I don't think so. This time at the Annan Conference, the biggest winner is not Lijun at all, but Guangjun!" Luo Chuan said, still looking at Qianxue.
Qianxue sneered without raising her head, "Just for half of Xiaoyao Valley? Or maybe you will be said to be unscrupulous by all means?! For a prefect of a county, this kind of thing is insignificant."
"This is by no means a trivial matter. You just said that Lijun got a complete Tingfeng Pavilion. That should have been the case, but because of this matter, Lijun only got half of a Tingfeng Pavilion at most, and
Even this half of the seat is at risk of being lost at any time..." Luo Chuan's face was filled with solemnity.
The shadow closed the curtains, put his hand on the wall of the carriage, and with a flash of light, he propped up a soundproof array, and then looked back.
Qianxue was still reading with her head down, but her hand did not continue to turn the pages as quickly as before, "Half a Tingfeng Pavilion?"
"Half a seat!" Luochuan sighed, "Since entering Xingcheng, we have focused all our attention on Guangjun, guarding against one sudden incident after another, lest there be any hidden secrets.
The move would be detrimental to us, but we didn’t expect that Yun Bailou actually just wanted to make a fuss about Tingfeng Pavilion from the beginning. All the actions against us are probably just deception..."
Qianxue and Huayu lowered their heads and frowned together.
Shadow suddenly said, "Is there something wrong with that imaging crystal?!"
"That's right!" Luo Chuan nodded, looked at the three girls, and said slowly, "In that imaging crystal, it was recorded that at night last night, Zhong Yun, the daughter of Zhong Shuye, the head of Tingfeng Pavilion, came from Tingfeng Pavilion.
Come out, be careful all the way, and finally have a private meeting with the prefect of Lijun... in a remote house! Then he entered the house and... turned out the lights!!" Qianxue and Huayu both raised their heads, full of joy
He looked at Luochuan in surprise.
Luo Chuan nodded seriously and said, "Yes, you all know where I went at nightfall last night. I secretly made an appointment with Zhong Shuye, the head of Tingfeng Pavilion, and Feng Qingzi, the people in the imaging crystal...
..Not me at all!”
"Then you..." Qianxue was startled, and then her expression became gloomy as if she had figured out something.
Luo Chuan continued, "I know that's not me. Coincidentally, Zhong Shuye and Feng Qingzi also know that it's not me. Even the elders of Tingfeng Pavilion such as Feng'er also know, but even if there is no such coincidence, if
After all, it is fake. The person who took out this imaging crystal, and Yun Bailou, who must be the person behind him, don't you know that I can prove my innocence?"
"They know, they all know," he took a deep breath and exhaled long, and then said with a wry smile, "but what they know even more is that at that time and in that situation, even if I knew it was false, I would never
Maybe you don’t recognize it!”
Qianxue, Shadow and Huayu are so smart, they have naturally figured out many things after hearing this.
Only Luo Chuan was still muttering to himself in a low voice, "If I don't admit it, Miss Zhong will lose her reputation immediately, and the head of Tingfeng Pavilion, Zhong Shuye, will lose her face, and even bring all the disciples of Tingfeng Pavilion with her."
If I want to become the laughing stock of the world, not to mention that I have some friendship with Miss Zhong, then how can Lijun invite Zhong Shuye to be the county magistrate?!"
"This plan is extremely simple and despicable... but also extremely helpless!"
