Chapter 527 The White Moonlight of Powerful Officials [1v3] 31

Chapter 527 The White Moonlight of Powerful Officials [1v3](31)

When the mayor and others learned that Wei Changce was a person sent by the imperial court, their expressions suddenly turned bad, and they snorted coldly, "If we wait until the general comes, I'm afraid everyone in our town will turn into a pile of bones.

Her Royal Highness the Princess has already sent patrols to exterminate the bandits."

Wei Changce frowned and frowned, "Who do you think sent the troops?"

The mayor looked at Wei Changce's face that suddenly darkened, and seemed to realize the intimidating power of the young general, and his previous dissatisfaction disappeared instantly.

"Yes, they are soldiers sent by the eldest princess."

As he spoke, he pointed to General Chang, who was sitting opposite and who had been ordered by the eldest princess to suppress the bandits.

Wei Changce looked in the direction he pointed, his eyebrows furrowed but not relaxed, "Are you really sent by the eldest princess?"

General Chang had heard about Wei Changce, and he immediately took out the eldest princess's handwriting, "Prince Wei, you will know at a glance."

Wei Changce took the imperial edict and immediately saw the seal on it that belonged to the eldest princess.

He couldn't help but become more confused.

The eldest princess, the high priest, the bandit...

Why has everything been overtaken by this small town?

Thinking again of the rockslide they encountered on the mountain road, Wei Changce suddenly felt that what happened in this small town might not be that simple.

"My prince accepted the handwriting first...so you have eliminated all the gangsters?"

General Chang nodded immediately, "Yes, in addition to the more than 300 bandits that were annihilated, the remaining 600 or so have been detained and sent to the Yamen for trial."

Wei Changce found a seat and sat down, and then his usual smile appeared on his face, "Thank you for your hard work, General Chang."

"No matter what, we are all working for the imperial court. The prince has worked hard all the way. I heard that the prince and his group were trapped for many days due to the heavy rain and the steep mountain road."

Wei Changce chuckled, with no emotion on his face, "General Lao Chang is concerned about me. My prince and the soldiers are doing well. No one was hurt, but the priest..."

He raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Rong Chen, who was sitting in the seat, with meaningful eyes, "For the affairs of Lingnan Town, the priest came here in person. He really dedicated his whole life."

It was not that Rong Chen didn't hear the probing meaning in Wei Changce's words, but he just turned his eyes slightly and looked into his eyes calmly.

"I am only fulfilling my responsibilities as a high priest. Now that the gangster incident has been settled, I might as well leave as soon as possible and escort Miss Liu to the capital safely."

Wei Changce then looked at Bai Wu who was standing aside.

She frowned lightly, with some uncontrollable sadness on her face.

For some reason, he always saw a bit of Meier in her.

But they are obviously two people.

One is like a begonia on a branch, bright and blooming against the sun.

The other one is like a cold orchid under the moon, always with a bit of sadness and pity.

It's a pity that the bright Meier will never come back.

Rong Chen noticed Wei Changce's overly lingering eyes, and an inexplicable restlessness came to his mind.

He looked at Liu Qiqi like this.

Is it because the two have known each other for a long time?

But this look clearly didn't look like looking at a friend.

"What's the problem, Prince Wei?" Rong Chen finally couldn't hold it back and interrupted Wei Changce's gaze.

Wei Changce was stunned for a moment, and then he came back to his senses, his eyebrows lowered a bit, "It's okay, priest, don't worry, I will send Miss Liu to the palace safely."

Rong Chen caught the flash of disappointment in his eyes.

I couldn't help but wonder if entrusting Liu Qiqi to him was the right choice.

But everyone has already arrived.

He had no choice but to force himself to withdraw from the matter, and then looked at the mayor, "What about you?"

The mayor still looked embarrassed, "Master Priest, is there really no room for negotiation on Wu Xian's matter?"

Bai Wu, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke, "Master Priest, the daughter of the people has a suggestion. Is it feasible or not?"

Rong Chen's fingertips trembled.

Fortunately, he wears a mask and can disguise all his emotions very well.

"Say." He said two words lightly.

"Qi Qi feels that the mayor's concerns are right. Lingnan Town has just encountered a disaster. Now that Wu Xian takes office, he will definitely not be able to gain the trust of the villagers for a while. Instead of a stalemate, it is better for the priest to leave a white-clothed waiter to temporarily abbot the Lingnan ceremony.

.

Let General Chang stay here for a while to ensure public security, and when the villagers' emotions stabilize and their lives get back on track, it won't be too late to elect a new Wu Xian."

The mayor repeatedly echoed, "Yes, yes, Miss Liu's suggestion is feasible."

General Chang also nodded, "The eldest princess's decree does have the intention of letting my troops stationed in Lingnan Town. It just so happens that my brothers can help the villagers rebuild their houses."

Even Wei Changce couldn't help but look at Bai Wu again.

I heard that Liu Qiqiu was just a country girl.

He originally thought that she could win the favor of the late emperor just by virtue of her beauty.

Now it seems that this woman is not as innocent as she seems.

In just three or two sentences, the conflict between the two parties was resolved.

However, since the temple has kept people here, the eldest princess has also kept people here.

Why not "join in the fun" too?

Wei Changce smiled, leaned on the Grand Master's chair and said, "Master Sacrifice, let's settle it. If General Chang doesn't have enough soldiers, it just so happens that I also brought some people here and the bandits were not suppressed. Let them help here."

It’s pretty good too.”

Rong Chen frowned lightly.

After a moment, he slowly spoke, "That's it. I'll take Wu Xian back to Lingguang Mountain tomorrow. I'll let the mayor worry about the rest."

The mayor quickly stood up and saluted, "Thank you for your hard work, Master Sacrifice. Have a safe journey."

This is how a seemingly peaceful but turbulent parliament ended.

Bai Wu watched everyone leave with satisfaction.

In addition to the handwritten letter to General Chang, she also included a secret edict.

He must try his best to stay in Lingnan Town no matter what, and gradually gain the right to speak in the town.

If the temple people work with him.

When necessary, kill first and then play.

In this way, Lingnan Town will become her first stronghold against the temple.

Seeing Rong Chen's figure walking away, she couldn't help but curl her lips.

We will say goodbye tomorrow.

Tonight she had to seize her last chance.



With the moon rising above the willow branches, Bai Wu walked through the pavilion and came to the courtyard where Rong Chen lived.

The waiters in white clothes were still guarding the door of his room, their faces solemn and inviolable.

After a few days, Bai Wu had almost recognized these people. She walked straight to Si Tong and said, "Sir, can you tell me that I want to meet the priest?"

Si Tong frowned and said, "I'm sorry, Miss Liu, the priest has already taken a rest. It's too late. You'd better go back."

Bai Wu bit her lip unwillingly, "But..."

The next second a clear voice sounded from the door, "Sitong, let Miss Liu come in."

The dissatisfaction on Si Tong's face did not go away, but he still opened the door for Bai Wu and said, "Miss Liu, please."
