In Nanzhou's Prefecture City, a group of people suddenly arrived at a dilapidated house in a secluded alley.
The one who came to visit was Shang Shuqing. The son of the owner of the house was a student in Shang Shuqing's school.
When the owner of the house was working for someone, he suddenly lost his strength and the object he was moving hit his foot. When Shang Shuqing heard about it, he specially came to visit.
However, Shang Shuqing's identity was not ordinary. For Shang Shuqing's safety, a group of people came to check on him before he even arrived. They set up defenses to prevent any accidents.
This scene made the poor man tremble with fear.
The son knew some etiquette. He bowed outside the door and led Shang Shuqing in. He seemed to know that his family was poor and seemed a little embarrassed.
Shang Shuqing walked in and looked around the shabby, dark, and damp room. He didn't know what to say.
The Princess came. The owner of the house, who was wearing old clothes, was a little bewildered. She even stuttered when she spoke.
Her rough hands flipped over a ceramic bowl with a rice grain on the edge. She made a cup of tea and offered it.
It couldn't be considered a tea. It was just some cheap tea leaves. Moreover, it was old. Because she couldn't bear to drink it, she would only offer it to guests when they came.
The tea bowl wasn't dirty, but because it was old, it gave people a dirty feeling.
The accompanying guards wouldn't let Shang Shuqing drink such a dirty thing. They tried to stop him, which made the owner a little embarrassed.
Shang Shuqing didn't mind. He asked the guards to step aside and received the tea with both hands. He took a sip and nodded in thanks.
After that, he visited the owner of the house who was lying on the shabby couch. Although one of his feet was wrapped, he could still see the bloodstains under the wrapping.
It was inconvenient for him to get out of bed. Shang Shuqing indicated that there was no need to be so polite. He asked him to lie down quietly and asked how his injury was.
An accompanying cultivator who had just examined the owner of the house whispered in Shang Shuqing's ear. He said that the sole of the owner's foot had been smashed to pieces and was crippled. He wouldn't be able to do heavy work in the future.
The owner of the house looked distressed and lost for the future.
The owner of the house was about to cry. She was weak and often coughed all year round. Occasionally, she would cough up blood, which was a burden to the whole family. The owner of the house worked as a laborer and bought medicine for her. Later, the Princess sent someone to help treat him. The cultivators from the cottage came to treat him.
Now, there was finally some color on her face. She didn't know what to do because she didn't want to help the man of the house.
What else could Shang Shuqing do but comfort him? In this world, there were too many families in similar situations. Her ability was limited, and she couldn't help them all.
There were too many families in the world. She had limited ability to help them. She couldn't help but felt. Of course, if she asked for it, Wang Fu would definitely give it to her, but Wang Fu now had a new mistress. She was an old lady, and if she asked for money from her brother and sister-in-law, she would feel bad and embarrassed to ask for it.
Big brother and sister-in-law wouldn't spend money recklessly. There were many places in Nanzhou that needed money. Sister-in-law rarely bought jewelry, and big brother had to spend money in a big way to solve the problem of poverty. Giving money one by one wasn't the solution.
Before leaving, Shang Shuqing left behind a token of appreciation for visiting the patient. Second Brother Wu of Fufang Garden, who came along with her, did things according to the old rules set by Guan Fangyi. A banknote worth a thousand silver coins was stuffed into the hostess' hand.
The owner of the house was terrified and refused. Most poor people had a higher sense of honor than the rich. She felt bad to take so much money from others, but she couldn't refuse.
After leaving the door, Shang Shuqing bowed to thank Wu Laoer. She was also embarrassed to let Guan Fangyi spend money every time.
The key was that Guan Fangyi didn't want to accept the favor. Just as Guan Fangyi joked about herself, in the eyes of the world, there was no difference between a matchmaker and a prostitute in a brothel. People might think it was dirty if they said it was her money. In the end, it was Guan Fangyi who paid, and it was Shang Shuqing who received the favor.
After leaving the alley and arriving at the end of the street, before boarding the carriage, Silver took a fancy to the snacks sold at the roadside stalls. She tugged at Shang Shuqing's sleeve and pointed at them, drooling.
Wu Laoer immediately walked over, threw some money, and packed all the snacks.
Wu Chang and Hei Shi sat quietly in a carriage parked on the side of the road.
At this time, Wu Chang was dressed normally. His wantonly fluttering long hair was coiled into a bun. People familiar with him would have a hard time recognizing him.
Hei Shi opened a gap in the curtains and said in a low voice, "It's that girl who can't move when she sees food."
Wu Chang stared at Silver for a while, "Are you sure it's her?"
He had memorized Yin 'er's appearance deeply in his mind. This was also the main reason why he had personally come to check on her.
If this woman was the Holy Rakshasa, if what the Ghost Doctor said was true, he would definitely launch a surprise attack the day he made his move. He would kill this woman in one fell swoop before she could transform into the Holy Rakshasa!
Hei Shi said, "Coincidentally, there is one in Thatched Cottage Villa. I'm afraid it's not a coincidence. Most importantly, according to the information I found out, this Silver does look like an idiot. She's so old, but her brain is like a three-year-old child's. It's said that she's especially delicious and eats all day. Also, she's a little easily angered. All of this seems to match what Hei Li said. "
Shang Shuqing boarded the carriage. The temporary blockade by the guards of the Prince's Mansion was lifted. Hei Shi put down the curtain and knocked on the door frame. Their carriage also started moving, following behind Shang Shuqing's carriage at a moderate speed.
"After discovering this Silver, I immediately looked into it and found something very interesting. This Silver first appeared after a Spirit Beast Convention held by Wanshou Clan many years ago. It was at that time when the Butterfly Illusion Realm could no longer be closed and Niu Youdao brought her back to Thatched Cottage Villa. After Heaven Capital Arcane Realm opened, this Silver suddenly disappeared. This time, after the Holy Rakshasa entered the human world and disappeared, this Silver returned to Thatched Cottage Villa. "
Wu Chang's eyes flickered.
Hei Shi whispered, "My Lord, when all these coincidences come together, I'm afraid it's not a coincidence. I'm afraid what Hei Li said is true!"
Slowly, Wu Chang said, "That means there's also a problem with Wanshou Clan."
Hei Shi nodded, "I'm afraid there's a problem."
When the carriage passed by the temporary resting place of the Prince's Mansion, Black Stone lifted the curtain again and gestured. He said in a low voice, "Thatched Cottage Villa will be here temporarily. From the intercepted messages from the Golden Wing here, Black Li's password for communication here is correct. All the intercepted messages can be translated. From this, it seems that what Hei Li said is true! "
Wu Chang asked, "Is there any useful information?"
Hei Shi said, "From the coverage of the information in the translation, this Thatched Cottage Villa is indeed very deep. It secretly extends in all directions and involves a lot of people. However, the messages sent are all anonymous, so I don't know who they are sent to. I don't know the situation and haven't found any useful information, so I haven't reported it to My Lord yet. "
Wu Chang said, "Then track the Golden Wings one by one and find out the whereabouts of all the contacts."
Hei Shi hesitated, "My Lord has a deadline of one month. I'm afraid it's too late to track them one by one."
Wu Chang said, "Cancel the deadline. The main task is to find out the contacts of Thatched Cottage Villa. Remember, it's better to be slow than to alert the enemy. "
"Yes!" Hei Shi replied.
The carriage did not stop outside the Prince's Mansion and went far away. After leaving the city, it disappeared into the distance.
…
A small town, abandoned because of the previous war, was now a little more lively.
A small group of people who had arrived earlier in the town were tidying up.
More than six thousand people from the Waning Moon Pavilion rushed over and entered the town. This town was the agreed meeting place with the people from the Shang League.
"General Luo was on a military mission and couldn't make it in time. He is on his way here. There is no suitable place to rest in the surroundings, only this small town. Pavilion Master, please lead everyone to rest. We have already tidied up the town. We hope that Pavilion Master will not mind. "The centurion who was in charge of cleaning up the town spoke to Lu Yuan in a sonorous voice.
Normally, Lu Yuan wouldn't care about a mere centurion, but at this moment, he still smiled and nodded. "Alright, thank you for your trouble."
He turned around and signaled. Someone immediately came forward and took out a gold note that could be exchanged for a hundred gold coins as a reward.
The centurion didn't stand on ceremony and accepted it with a smile, "My Lord, please let me know if you have any orders. The residents of this town have all run away, so you can choose your own place to stay. "But he still reminded," The largest house in the town is prepared for the General. "
The implication was that they shouldn't occupy it.
Lu Yuan was slightly dissatisfied, but he still smiled and said, "General Luo is the center of the march, so of course he needs a spacious place."
After the centurion left, Lu Yuan waved his hand and people immediately spread out to check the town.
A carriage entered the town and stopped. Zhuang Hong and Xia Lingpei got off and looked around the desolate town. Their mood was as desolate as the environment.
Not long after the mother and son were taken away, a horse galloped over. One of Waning Moon Pavilion's people in charge of communication jumped off the horse and reported to Lu Yuan, "My Lord, Luo Daan is here. He should be here in half an hour."
Lu Yuan nodded and waved to the elders, saying, "We have to bow our heads when we are under someone else's roof. We have to give him face. Let's go and welcome him together. "
A group of people quickly walked out of the town and waited at the main entrance of the town.
Soon, there was a faint sound of thunder in the distance, followed by billowing smoke and dust.
Not long after, a group of cavalry appeared in sight like a gust of wind.
As they looked from afar, one of the elders said, "Ying Yang Wu Lie Graud is here. He really lives up to his reputation!"
Three thousand cavalrymen rushed out of the town. The leading general raised his spear and moved like thunder. The silent cavalrymen came to a sudden stop, and the warhorses neighed one after another.
As they stopped, the dust rolled up and flew towards the people who came to greet them.
When the dust dissipated, the general under the "Luo" flag also revealed his face.
He looked young, dressed in armor and holding a black iron spear. The warhorse he rode was black and shiny. It was Luo Daan.
It was easy to imagine the conditions of a war outside. His face was weathered, but he was still in good spirits. He had a short beard, and his eyes were bright and full of vigor.
Although he looked young, he was already a general who commanded five hundred thousand soldiers. He had made great contributions in conquering Qin's territory. Plus, he was Meng Shan Ming's disciple. No one dared to look down on him.
With Meng Shan Ming's support and guidance, Luo Daan's achievements had far surpassed his father, Luo An.
Luo An had never commanded thirty thousand soldiers before. Naturally, he could not compare to his son's achievements.
However, it was also because Luo An was loyal and devoted. He risked his life to block arrows for Meng Shan Ming, risking his life to save Meng Shan Ming. It could be said that he had exchanged for the future of his two sons.
Of the two sons, one was in the army, and his teacher was Meng Shan Ming. The other was in politics, and his teacher was Lan Ruoting.
Both of their masters were top figures in the military and politics of the Southern Region. Their future was obvious.
The two brothers had a bright future ahead of them. Luo An's widow was now one of the few noblewomen within the sphere of influence of the Southern Province, enjoying glory, splendor, wealth and rank.
