Chapter 682

I adjusted my breath here in Yunshan City for two days before the breath in my body became completely stable.

Most of the floods in the city have dissipated, but there are still deep puddles in many low-lying places. Some places above the water have begun to become moldy due to being soaked by floods for days. The whole city is filled with the smell of decay and dilapidation.

At this time, people were gradually returning to the city. Seeing the scene in the city, they all shook their heads and sighed. The culprit of all this was me, but they did not dare to complain because I was the prince.

What’s more, my huge disaster brought too much shock to them.

They are afraid of my magical power.

As for the fact that our Four Saints are here in person, some people with great supernatural powers will definitely tell it after they notice it. People around here probably also know about it, which is one of the reasons why they can't complain.

No matter what the reason was, they couldn't complain.

This probably makes them very depressed.

On my side, I felt a little guilty, so I planned to stay and help rebuild Yunshan City first. At the same time, I also sent a message to Wuwangsui City, asking Suan Xianqing to send some people over.

We have a lot of craftsmen in Wuwangsui City who are expanding the city. Transferring them to Yunshan City will definitely play a big role. Of course, I will also ask Suan Xianqing to transport some talismans and jade here.

I will personally pay for all the expenses for the reconstruction of Yunshan City.

At the same time, I also asked Lu Zheng's two legions to participate in the reconstruction of Yunshan City. They built channels to divert the flood water, helped ordinary people rebuild houses, and distributed some materials transported from Wuwangsu City.

Of course, in addition to Wuwangsui City, Qianfeng Cangyuan Prefecture Minister and City Lord Zhou Lie also sent people to deliver a lot of supplies.

However, it was Zhou Li from Xishan City who sent the most things. Xishan City is the richest city in the northwest, so the supplies sent by Zhou Li were twice as much as those from Wuwangsu City and Qianfeng Cangyuan City combined.

As for other northwest states and counties, they have no intention of coming to help.

Of course, Zhanke's Nixin City also sent some supplies, but they were mixed with our Wuwangsin City and were not calculated separately.

Of course, I have already remembered the kindness of Rixin City.

After almost half a month, the restoration and construction of Yunshan City has gradually entered the formal stage, and I no longer need to keep an eye on it every day.

The people here have obviously complained less about me these days. When they see me working on the streets, they also give me a sincere smile and salute me respectfully. My image in Yunshan City

The people's hearts and minds were finally restored a lot.

With the situation here stabilized, I am no longer prepared to stay here. My next stop is Jiuhengzhou, which is also one of the territories that the Emperor wants to give me. I will go there first to give the Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals to me.

That's taken care of. As for the prefectural government offices over there, I decided not to touch them for now, and then deal with them after I build up Yunshan City.

Of course, I couldn't take Zhan Ke with me. After all, his injury had not fully recovered, so I asked Lu Zheng to send people to send Zhan Ke and Yuan Zihong's body back to Rixin City first. As for Yuan Zihong's funeral,

I specifically told Lu Zheng to wait until Zhan Ke fully recovers before holding the event.

Lu Zheng also took the order to do it.

On my side, I am heading north to Jiuheng Prefecture with Nangong Fan, Chai Min, Qianyingjun and Yang Luo.

It only took us less than seven days to get to Jiuheng Prefecture. When we arrived at the foot of Jiuheng City, Yan Guoxiang, the state minister of Jiuheng Prefecture, personally came to greet me with hundreds of dignitaries from Jiuheng City. There was a particularly spectacular guard of honor, and occasionally the garrison was seen, but the Jiuheng Prefecture Legion was not seen.

It seems that Yan Guoxiang is showing me that he has no hostility at all.

Maybe they are also afraid that I will make a big fuss like in Yunshan City.

Before coming to Jiuheng Prefecture, I had already sent an edict as a prince stating that I would come here to inspect, so Yan Guoxiang was well prepared.

On our first day here, he took us to inspect the residence of the garrison, as well as the garrison branches of nine state capital legions and two private legions without hiding anything.

Of course, he also arranged a reception banquet for us.

This is the highest level of reception I have received from Prince Yun's people since I arrived in the northwest, and it is also the most sincere reception.

Through this day of contact, I discovered that Yan Guoxiang is a very talented person, at least much more talented and courageous than Yunlongqing. There are nine legions in Jiuhengzhou, two private legions, and a garrison legion. , there are a total of twelve legions with a total of almost 150,000 people. These legions have strong combat readiness capabilities. They can defend the Utopia in the northwest of Jiuheng Prefecture, and defend the Emperor of the People and the Immortal Guards of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance internally.

In Jiuheng Prefecture, Prince Yun and the Yan Family Army held absolute dominance.

The most important thing is that the legions of Yan Guoxiang are indeed no less powerful than those stationed in Wuwangsu City. If there is a war in the northwest, Jiuheng Prefecture will undoubtedly be the hardest bone to crack.

Maybe we'll even stumble here.

Fortunately I came to Jiuhengzhou this time, and fortunately I listened to Nangong Fanxong's advice and did not act impulsively, otherwise I might really cause a big disaster this time.

During the dinner, I also observed Yan Guoxiang carefully. He had a military style of conversation, and his speech was somewhat similar to that of Yan Jin. However, his speech was not as straightforward as Yan Jin's, and sometimes he was a little more tactful.

But compared to some conspirators, he is much more straightforward.

In terms of his own strength, he is in the middle stage of the fifth-level immortal, but I don't know if he has any secret skills.

Throughout the dinner, the officials in Jiuheng Prefecture were very respectful to me, and many took the initiative to toast to me and my companions, so that I could not find any fault with them.

When the dinner was about to end and everyone was about to leave, Yan Guoxiang suddenly stood up and saluted me: "Prince Chen, I know that you have bad intentions in coming to Jiuhengzhou this time. I would like to ask you a favor." The thing is, among the fourteen prefectures and counties in the northwest, except for Jiuheng Prefecture, it doesn’t matter if you fight or make trouble at will, but just don’t touch Jiuheng Prefecture, right?”

I frowned but before I spoke, Yan Guoxiang said: "Our Yan family has always been in the military. We are not like the Yang family who is so arrogant and gossiping about the court. I, Yan Guoxiang, have been operating in Jiuheng Prefecture for many years with the sole purpose of One, that is to level the Utopia. Although I belong to Prince Yun’s faction, I have no intention of betraying the Human Emperor. I am loyal to Prince Yun solely because of his kindness to our ancestors of the Yan family."

"As the saying goes, remember the source when drinking water. He has no choice but to repay his kindness."

What Yan Guoxiang said surprised me a little.

No wonder Yan Jin can stay in Jiuheng Prefecture for so long. It turns out that he and Yan Guoxiang are both people who value love and righteousness. If it were someone like Yun Longqing, Yan Jin would not even be able to take him there. .

Yan Guoxiang added: "In the fourteen prefectures and counties in the northwest, most of them are controlled by the Yan and Yang families, and the prefectures guarding the border are generally controlled by the Yan family, because the Yan family can fight and know how to fight, and many of the inner states and counties are controlled by the Yang family. People are in control!”

Yan Guoxiang is analyzing for me the overall strength of Prince Yun in the fourteen states and counties.

I nodded to Yan Guoxiang and said, "I know the bravery of the Yan family. I have seen some of it, especially the mad general Yan Jin. I admire him even more."

Yan Guoxiang nodded and said, "Yes, Yan Jin is the pride of our Yan family!"

And I just said: "Since General Yan (Yan Guoxiang) has made it clear, I won't hide it anymore. In fact, the Human Emperor intends to add Jiuheng Prefecture to my fiefdom, but I don't care about this matter." It has been suppressed and has not been officially announced to the outside world. If this news spreads, there will definitely be chaos in Jiuheng Prefecture, so I decided to temporarily give up incorporating Jiuheng Prefecture into my princely fiefdom!"

Yan Guoxiang clasped his hands directly, raised them above his head, then knelt down with a plop and bowed to me: "Yan Guoxiang kowtows to Prince Chen on behalf of the 150,000 Yan family troops in Jiuheng Prefecture."

This decision of mine is equivalent to temporarily avoiding the flames of war, and neither the Yan family army nor my soldiers have to shed blood and sacrifice.

I was actually a little surprised when Yan Guoxiang paid such a grand tribute to me. The most important thing is that after he kowtowed his head, without using any Tao Qi to protect his body, he banged the ground several times, causing his forehead to bleed. Already.

Yan Guoxiang is expressing his sincerity to me.

I was really shocked by Yan Guoxiang's character. I could feel that he was not thinking about himself, but thinking about his Yan family army and the comfort of the entire human race.

It seems that Prince Yun also has people who are loyal to serve the country.

I want to change my view of Prince Yun's men. Prince Yun is obsessed with power and intrigue, but that doesn't mean that all his men are like this.

Yan Jin, Yan Guoxiang, one after another, the descendants of the Yan family are subverting my understanding of Prince Yun's men.

I went over to help Yan Guoxiang up, and Nangong Fancong also said beside me: "There are not many righteous men like General Yan."

However, Yan Guoxiang patted his chest and said, "Our Yan family has never lacked good sons and daughters who are kind and righteous!"

Yan Guoxiang's words are very proud and heroic.

I was also touched.

I took a deep breath and continued: "I won't touch any of Jiuheng Prefecture's soldiers, nor will I take Jiuheng Prefecture's attention. However, I want to find a way to clean up the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance in Jiuheng Prefecture. That day I When I killed Nan Guyan, I swore that I would not allow any more Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance to exist in the fourteen northwest prefectures. I kept my word, so the same goes for Jiuheng Prefecture!"

Hearing what I said, Yan Guoxiang looked at me a few times, then subconsciously looked at Yang Luo and said, "Actually, I have a lot of opinions on the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, because many people and ideals in the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance The country is so close, which is the most disgusting thing. If you want to deal with the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, I will not stop you, and I can even help you secretly!"

"But on the surface, we must remain neutral!"

When I heard what Yan Guoxiang said, I felt that my action to expel the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance in Jiuheng Prefecture was complete!

At this time, Yan Guoxiang said again: "By the way, there are two friends of Prince Chen in our Jiuheng Prefecture. They will also be guests at my house in two days. You may be able to discuss how to deal with Jiuheng together.

It’s about the Prefecture Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance!”

My friend, I asked who it was.

Yan Guoxiang said: "One of them is named Tian Sihan, and the other is named Wang Xiaoran."

The two of them, aren't they with Li Guidao and the others? What are they doing here in Jiuheng Prefecture? (To be continued)
