On the document, under the word commander, there was the word Xiong Kui. Following which was the next document. Zong Shou's eyes lit up, suddenly he was really interested.
This matter wasn't a huge matter of the country, it wasn't even a small matter.
It was just a small matter brought up by a mid-level official.
"… I heard that Shili Ling Xiangding is getting more and more prosperous, tax revenue is increasing. Gathering many rich kids in the city to drink and drink day and night, causing the number of fights and injuries to increase. In my eyes, it is best to strengthen the control of this place. If we can collect security taxes from the 300 brothels here. Our Gantian Mountain City will be able to increase the number of troops. "
Drinking and drinking? Brothels? So within Gantian Mountain City, there was a red light district. Keke, 300 brothels, this scale is not bad.
The brothels of ancient times, this really makes one interested and want to take a look.
His eyes rolled, Zong Shou made a hand signal towards Chu Xue. Xue looked on for a moment, her eyes filled with shock, "Young master, what do you want to say? Xue doesn't understand? "
Zong Shou couldn't help but roll his eyes, this brat was actually acting dumb in front of him. His brows furrowing, Zong Shou casually took a beast skin and wrote 'where is Shili Ling Xiangding'.
Chu Xue pouted when she saw the situation, pouting, "Young master, Xue is a girl, how would I know where this Shili Ling Xiangding is?
Zong Shou thought about it and agreed, this Xue was most probably lying. However, it was indeed a little inappropriate to ask her about this matter.
He looked towards Ruoshui with a questioning gaze. But he saw that Ruoshui was also smiling faintly, unwilling to answer his question.
Zong Shou sighed softly. He scribbled a few words on the animal skin, "Let's go. We'll go incognito and observe the people." Then he stood up and strode out of the door. Ruoshui didn't know, Chu Xue didn't know. Those guards outside definitely knew about it.
Chu Xue couldn't help but panic. She rushed forward a few steps and spread out her two jade arms like an old hen. She stopped Zong Shou and said, "Young Master, you can't! Grandfather had said that tomorrow would be the first court meeting of the Young Lord. These memorials had to be dealt with. If you want to tour Gantian Mountain City, there will be plenty of chances in the future. Isn't it that Shili Ling Xiangding? Xue will definitely accompany you. "
When Zong Shou heard this, he laughed silently and walked back. Just when Chu Xue thought that he had changed his mind. Zong Shou directly kicked the table and flipped it. Then, he walked past Chu Xue.
He thought to himself that he was dumb. He actually put in so much effort to deal with these complicated memorials. It was really dumb. He came back to fight for the Monster king position to complete the wishes of the previous Zong Shou.
Two days ago, this wish of his had been fulfilled, and his mind was free of worries. He had also obtained many benefits. Both his spiritual cultivation and martial path had improved by a lot.
At this moment, it was good that he wasn't prepared to burn the bridge after crossing it. Was he really going to work hard every day to be a virtuous ruler of a country?
His life wish was to study the martial path. His first goal was to merge hundreds of sword techniques and create a true one origin sword.
As for this Gantian Mountain City, he actually had a conscience. When he was free, he would take care of it. He just wanted to have a clear conscience.
However, before he focused on the martial path, he had to take a look at this so called Shili Ling Xiangding and the 300 brothels to relax his heart.
That wasn't right! He was also observing the people. When he was deep in the palace dealing with administrative matters, how would he know the hardships of the people? I can't be any more wise than you.
Since he was visiting incognito, then naturally he couldn't wear extravagant clothing. Changing into a green robe, Zong Shou walked out of this palace known as Hanyan Palace. Then, there were tens of guards following behind. A full 40 xiantian experts and 4 martial ancestor experts. They were all dressed in heavy armor, looking majestic and majestic.
Zong Shou felt that these people were too much of a hindrance and told them to disperse. Just like that, he brought the frowning Chu Xue as well as Ruoshui who didn't care about anything from start to finish down Gantian Mountain.
In a short 2 days, this Gantian Mountain City had settled down. It was night time and the streets were filled with people. Be it the streets or alleys, they were all bustling.
Zong Shou walked over. At the start, he was filled with curiosity as he looked around. The primitive ancient city style. If this was in the future, it would be filled with tourists.
Then, he slowly calmed down, his brows tightly furrowed. The people of this era didn't bathe often, especially the commoners, their bodies smelled really thick. Unlike his Xue and Ruoshui who smelled really good.
Next was that there was no sewer system. Rubbish was thrown all over, making it really messy. In some places, there was a pungent smell.
Zong Shou used true qi to cover his ears and nose, filtering it before he felt a little better.
Following which numerous voices drilled into his ears. At the start, Zong Shou didn't care. However, when he heard the words city lord, ruler, prince, Zong Shi. Only then did he notice that on the streets and alleys, be it the old aunts and uncles or those young and hot-blooded youths, they were all discussing the huge change 2 days ago. Only then did Zong Shou's brows furrow, acting like he didn't care. He stopped in front of a small stall and acted like he was looking around. His ears, however, perked up like a rabbit to listen to his surroundings.
"I heard that a few thousand heads were chopped off that night. That was really tragic. Tell me, why is Jun Shang so heartless? I heard that there were a thousand of his race members. "
"Women? What do you know. Since it concerns the battle for the throne, naturally that is the case. For such things, the son killing the father, the father killing the son, that is normal. What are a few thousand heads considered? These people plotted and rebelled, they deserved it. They can't blame the ruler! "
"I also heard that the people who died were those direct descendants of the sky fox bloodline. These people usually acted arrogantly in the city and now they finally got their retribution. How fortunate! The hard work of the previous ruler didn't land in the hands of outsiders. "
"The previous ruler was a good person, a virtuous ruler. The ruler is the son of the previous ruler and his ability to rule the country is definitely not bad. To be able to inherit the throne, the heavens are protecting him. In the past, I heard those people say that young master Zong Shi was not bad. However, I always felt that this person wasn't reliable. This is great, he is finally dead. Without these demons causing trouble, our Gantian Mountain City will be able to be peaceful. In my eyes, with our ruler's skills, he can make our Gantian Mountain even more prosperous and prosperous. "
Zong Shou's lips were originally curled up, smiling. However, when he heard that his ability to rule the country was definitely not bad and that he could make Gantian Mountain prosperous and prosperous, his face couldn't help but turn slightly red.
He was planning to stay here for a few days before packing up and leaving.
"However, I heard that when the ruler was the prince, didn't he not know martial arts?"
"Tsk! Who said that? The ruler personally killed Zong Shi that day. I heard that the Xuanwu ancestors that those people invited all died in his hands. Only then did he settle down on that heaven worshipping altar. In the past, he just hid and didn't do anything. Now he really shocked everyone. What was he called? Oh right! He was pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger! How would the Prince be like Zong Shi, that show-off, who showed off? That is the style of an aristocratic family. What top genius of Donglin Cloud Continent, spit! Is he even worthy? Compared to the ruler, he is just trash. "
"Not only that, have you all heard? The ruler has already created his own race called the Gantian Zong family. There are only a few of the sky fox Zong family left. I heard that the sky fox Zong family uncle Zong Zheng objected, but in the end, the ruler forced him back. That uncle is said to be at the peak of the Return to Sun realm, half a foot away from the day wandering realm. Such an amazing person couldn't do anything to the prince. "
"In my eyes, the most amazing thing is the ruler's strategy. Before this, he didn't even attack, just tens of thousands of east city troops suppressed the wind bear and eye wolf races. Ling Fakong's race leader position was also removed. If it wasn't for that traitor Zong Shi colluding with the enemy to assassinate the ruler. Other people probably don't know that the ruler is actually a top talent, a top expert! "
The more Zong Shou heard, the happier he felt. He thought to himself that the people of Gantian Mountain were really good, able to differentiate right from wrong. Zong Weiran was indeed amazing, managing here for 10 years and making the hearts of tens of millions of people work for him.
Following which, there wasn't anything good to hear. Zong Shou casually bought 3 exquisite jade hairpins, one for Chu Xue's hair, one for Ruoshui, and the last one he hid in his sleeves. It made the 2 of them delighted.
Following which, just as he was about to turn around and leave, his face froze up, fluctuating between green and white.
Only to hear another person not far away say in shock, "Yi? So you only heard of this. The ruler isn't simple. Did you all hear about the grade 6 beasts that rampaged in the south Luofang City a few years ago? Other people said that the ruler personally acted. However, a few days ago I heard people say that the ruler helped to kill them. A few years ago, the prince could personally kill those grade 6 beasts. "
"You also heard of this matter? It seems like it is most probably true. However, the news I have is not only this. 3 years ago, the yin serpent caused chaos in the evil spirit moat. It was the prince who acted and forced the demon to retreat. Actually, when the ruler was 10, he had already defeated many talents in Gantian Mountain and had no opponent. The ruler was worried that the prince was too strong which was why he sent the ruler to Linhai College to cultivate his heart and mind. "
"Also, that day on Gantian Mountain peak, it was said that not only a few Xuanwu ancestors died. There was also an ascended ancestor who died under the ruler's sword. "
Zong Shou's lips twitched when he heard that. Why were these words getting more and more preposterous?
At the start, he thought that the rumors were distorted, but slowly he felt that something wasn't right. These words were said with a lot of detail. It sounded like it was true, but it was filled with flaws like someone purposely did it.
Furthermore, those people were most definitely very familiar with his past experiences. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
