When the people from Nanya return to the city, they naturally have a way to avoid all kinds of eyes and ears at the city gate. As for bringing someone in, that is childish.
What's more, Huo Shanzi is not a gangster, he has the freedom to enter and leave Luojing City.
Along the way, Luo Xing and Huo Shanzi discussed the art of forging. One was that he was extremely skilled in forging. If it hadn't been for these lost ten years, he would have been promoted to the Great Blacksmith long ago.
One of them is full of fantastic ideas and has a very open mind. During the conversation, he seems to feel that we have not seen each other for a long time.
Huo Shanzi is a person who loves forging extremely, otherwise he would not have lived alone in the place where he built the forging furnace for ten years after being injured.
He wanted to realize many ideas, but he couldn't do it himself. He also wanted to recruit a disciple, but he was also afraid of hurting others. That woman was really unreasonable, and he was also afraid of being deceived, so he always refused indifferently.
The injuries on his hands, coupled with emotional injuries, turned a genius blacksmith into a completely decadent man who drank all day long and only had a big yellow dog by his side.
Luo Xing's appearance ignited the fire in his heart that had not yet been extinguished.
Huo Shanzi was arranged to live in Nanya. It was not safe for people like him to live outside. Moreover, Nanya had its own forging furnace, which could be used directly when the time came.
The biggest question is how long Ye Hou can stay in the position of Grand Governor.
When the time comes, I don’t know if this Zhuo Chunfeng will cause trouble.
"Master Huo, I have to apologize to you for the time being." Luo Xing sent Huo Shanzi to Nanya to settle down and apologized.
"No aggrievement, the conditions here are already very good. I just need a place to sleep on my own. It doesn't matter so much." Huo Shanzi is very open-minded and is a typical technical man.
Generally speaking, people of this type don't care much about such external things.
On the contrary, they have more stringent requirements for forging skills and strive for excellence.
Huo Shanzi is a senior blacksmith. Even though he can no longer forge due to injury, senior blacksmiths are very rare talents. Even in Tiangongfang, they are like elders, and the great blacksmiths in the entire Dazhou are no more than
three people.
One is worshiped by the Zhou royal family, responsible for the forging of the weapons of the Ministry of War, and enjoys the treatment of a first-class civilian official. One is in the Holy Land Tianlan Sect, and the other is at the headquarters of Dazhou Luojing in Tiangongfang.
Although there are many senior blacksmiths, unless the salary is outrageous, if the senior blacksmith opens a weapons forging workshop by himself, the wealth will not be small. Who would be willing to live under someone else's fence and take orders from others?
Therefore, senior blacksmiths basically exist independently. They earn their own money and spend it on their own, while bringing along a group of apprentices. This is much better than joining a certain force.
Even the one worshiped by the royal family can leave at any time.
Only junior and intermediate blacksmiths need the opportunity to practice with a lot of materials, especially the promotion to senior blacksmiths requires a lot of valuable forging materials, which is not something that ordinary fledgling blacksmiths can afford, so they join a certain force. Of course, basically
It is also conditional, unless there is no hope of promotion to senior blacksmith.
Therefore, senior blacksmiths are very popular and highly talented, so when Huo Shanzi came to Nanya as a guest, he naturally attracted the attention of Wuning Hou Ye Hongyi.
Even asking Huo Shanzi to give some advice to Nanya's blacksmith is extremely rare. Besides, if Huo Shanzi hadn't had the tendons in his hands picked off, he would have been expected to be promoted to the Great Blacksmith.
Luo Xing actually deceived people with just a few words.
He was also worried. Don't brag about it in Haikou. If the treatment effect cannot be achieved by then, Nanya's reputation will also be affected.
The man was brought back by Luo Xing, so he was afraid that Zhuo Chunfeng would use the topic to his advantage.
Ye Hongyi also brought over the best doctor in Nanya and gave Huo Shanzi a detailed and comprehensive examination.
The results are naturally worrying.
…
"Lao Meng, it's a good thing that you invite Huo Shanzi back, but you can't agree to it randomly. I asked Dr. Zhou to check his hands. Now this is the best situation." Ye Hongyi
He went to Mengyi directly and complained.
"I don't understand this matter of healing injuries and setting bones. It's useless for you to ask me." Meng Yi said, "Two, five, six."
"Luo Xiaoqi is your disciple, and you just let him talk nonsense and do whatever he wants?" Ye Hongyi was very angry at Meng Yi's attitude. If he knew that this kid was so out of tune, he wouldn't let him do anything.
Qingyi married him.
"It's true that I am his master, but not everything he teaches is from me. For example, this medical skill, he may have another teacher."
"There is another teacher. How is it possible? He has been in the Nanya secret camp since he was a child. You don't know who the people in the secret camp are. Who did he learn from?"
"He has been employed for almost three years. Do you know what he has done and learned in these three years?" Meng Yi chuckled and asked.
"He has never left Luojing in the past three years, and his report is normal."
"People are different. Just like me, I came out of the secret camp, but how can I cultivate the spiritual path?" Meng Yi asked in return.
"I can turn a blind eye and not pursue these matters, but once Zhuo Chunfeng takes office, can you guarantee that he will not pursue them?" Ye Hongyi asked.
"I am his master, why can't I explain the problem?"
"But you only recently accepted him as your disciple."
"When will I, Meng Yi, accept a disciple? Do you want to report to Zhuo Chunfeng?" Meng Yi said coldly, not taking Zhuo Chunfeng seriously at all.
"Forget it, I don't care. If you need my help with anything, just let me know in advance." Ye Hongyi also looked away. He had to find out what he was doing. He was the only one who was about to leave his job. He would be fucked for the rest of his life.
It's time for the heart to calm down.
"You have to help cover up the fact that we have been out for the past two days."
"I know, I won't tell you, but how do you explain Huo Shanzi's coming to Nanya?" Ye Hongyi asked.
"Just say that I invited you back."
"Do you still have a good relationship with Huo Shanzi?"
"No, but my disciple wants to learn the art of forging, doesn't he?"
"Just spoil him like this!"
"I'm happy. Who asked him to be my apprentice?"
…
"Dong Weng, Dong Weng, something happened, something happened..." Fan Xiliang jogged into Su Changhe's study and reported breathlessly.
Su Changhe has been in a bad mood these past two days. Not only was she called over by the palace, she was scolded severely by her biological sister.
After all, the matter of the Mangshan bandits could not be concealed.
Moreover, his position as the commander of the Nanya Intelligence Department was completely gone, and he was actually snatched away by a fellow from Zhongshu Province.
After years of planning and working hard for a long time, he ended up making wedding clothes for others. Is he willing? The evil fire in his heart really can't be released!
"What happened again?"
That sinister look almost frightened Fan Xiliang so much that he suppressed his words on the spot. He quickly organized his words and reported in a low voice: "Dong Weng, when we reported back at Luoxingping, we only saw Zuo Song and others.
Mount, I didn’t see anyone, I think it might be..."
"What could it be?"
"Killed."
"Isn't it possible that he is absconding?"
"Escape, Dong Weng, Zuo Song hid back to his hometown in Qingzhou this time. You agreed, so why did you abscond?" Fan Xiliang asked excitedly.
"Check, go and check quickly, send people to check for me along the way. You must see the person alive and the corpse after death!" Su Changhe shouted angrily.
"Yes, yes, I will send someone to check right away!" Mr. Fan was so frightened that he quickly left the study.
…
The main hall of the East Courtyard of the Xirong Envoy Courtyard.
The envoy sent by Xirong was sitting Prime Minister Alhai in the center left position. At this time, sitting on the right of Alhai was a masked woman with a formidable aura.
She has a graceful figure and a pair of beautiful eyes twinkling like cold stars, but the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes betray her age.
But Shang Chen sat with him below.
"I didn't expect His Majesty, Lord Wolf, to actually send Master Xin here." Although Alehai was the Prime Minister of Zuo, and in Xirong he was one person below ten thousand people, but he did not dare to deal with the "Youchar" of the Puppet Shadow Hall generation.
Any slights.
This is the talon of His Majesty the Wolf Lord, his confidant, and his forbidden wife.
"Prime Minister Zuo, His Majesty the Wolf Lord was afraid that Ying Xin would be intercepted, so he specially ordered me to come here." Xin Mei nodded slightly and explained why she came to Luojing.
"Something happened in the royal court?"
"Isn't this true? Some people are strongly opposed to the marriage between His Majesty the Wolf Lord and the Great Zhou Dynasty, especially the marriage of Princess Liuli. They even spread rumors that once Princess Liuli marries Xirong, she will be the source of trouble and become a demon concubine!"
"Is this King Chongqian Youxian?"
"This marriage is related to Xirong's great cause and must not be lost. Prime Minister, His Majesty the Wolf Lord has a decree that you must facilitate this matter. As for the three conditions raised by Princess Liuli of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there is no harm in agreeing to her, and the Wolf Lord
His Majesty also said that as long as Da Zhou agrees to marry Princess Liuli to him, he will sign a peace agreement with Da Zhou for at least thirty years to ensure peace on the border. Of course, His Majesty the Wolf Lord also hopes that Da Zhou will open more forums on the border.
, liberalize trade with Xirong, especially the ban on salt and iron must also be liberalized!" Xin Mei said.
"Will Your Majesty come to Luojing in person to marry Princess Liuli next spring?" Prime Minister Zuo Alehai asked.
"Yes."
Both Alehai and Shang Chen understood. The opposition to marriage in Xirong was very strong. Who is the Youxian King Chongqian? He was the younger brother of the Wolf Lord. He took the lead in opposing it. Naturally, the nobles and tribal leaders of Xirong also had opinions.
.
It's not a big deal for the Wolf Lord to marry a Zhou princess, but if he wants to be the Wolf Queen, the male he will produce in the future will have to become the Wolf Lord's heir apparent. This will make the bloodline of the Xirong royal family impure.
There is also the issue of Princess Liuli's identity. She is not the biological daughter of the current Emperor Yongxi, but the daughter of the former crown prince and the genius of the Tianlan Sect.
Although Princess Liuli's status as a member of the Zhou royal family meant that Emperor Zhou was qualified to decide on her marriage, what did the Tianlan Sect think?
Can Xirong martial arts sects such as Liuli Temple and Lian Sect tolerate the Tianlan Sect entering Xirong?
In fact, the Tianlan Sect is also divided into two factions regarding Ye Liuli's marriage to Xirong. One faction is naturally firmly opposed to it, mainly because Ye Liuli belongs to the Qinglan Peak lineage. Ye Liuli is regarded as the future peak leader.
What does it mean to be trained and married?
The other faction believes that this is an opportunity for the Tianlan Sect to enter Xirong. If it succeeds, it will be of great benefit to the expansion of the Tianlan Sect and the suppression of the Holy Land Liuli Temple.
Otherwise, how could Emperor Yongxi dare to put pressure on Ye Liuli face to face and make her agree to this marriage?
"One more thing, why is there still no result in the case of the extermination of the Shengjia leather goods store? Isn't it because Dazhou Nanya is investigating the case?"
"Well, Mr. Xin, this case is indeed being investigated by Dazhou Nanya, but the person in charge of the investigation is Her Royal Highness Princess Liuli, so, ours..." Shang Chen replied.
"How did Princess Liuli become a member of Nanya?"
"Master Xin, this Princess Liuli changed her name to Ye Li and entered the Nanya of the Great Zhou Dynasty as a counselor. She came here to provoke and injured the third princess of Xianyu before." Prime Minister Zuo Alehai explained.
"What, she's such a royal princess, she actually did such an unseemly thing?"
"Actually, Mr. Xin, our analysis shows that Princess Liuli does not want to marry His Majesty the Wolf Lord and will take the opportunity to cause trouble and ruin the marriage." Shang Chen said.
"That's true." Xin Mei nodded, "Since Dazhou Nanya is unreliable, we can only seek justice for the seventeen members of the Sheng family who died."
"Master Xin, this is Luo Jing, and we must not act recklessly or affect His Majesty the Wolf Lord's plans."
"You still have to say this, huh!" Xin Mei stood up, snorted coldly, and disappeared in front of the two of them in an instant.
"Prime Minister Zuo, why did His Majesty the Wolf Lord send this person here?"
"Something must have happened in the royal court. Brother Shang, let's just do our part." Alhai lightly patted Shang Chen on the shoulder and said.
Shang Chen nodded slightly. If the sky fell, there would be tall people holding it up.
