In Nanzhou Fucheng, a group of people suddenly came to a run-down house in a secluded alley.
The person who came to visit was Shang Shuqing, and the son of the owner of the house was a student in Shang Shuqing's school.
When the male owner was working for someone, he suddenly lost strength and broke his foot while moving something. After learning about it, Shang Shuqing came to visit him.
However, Shang Shuqing's identity was unusual, and for Shang Shuqing's safety, a group of people came to check before the person arrived, setting up defenses to prevent accidents.
This battle made this poor family a little trembling.
His son understood some etiquette, saluted outside the door, and ushered Shang Shuqing in. He seemed to be a little embarrassed because he knew that his family was not well off.
Shang Shuqing, who walked in, looked around at the simple, dilapidated, dark and damp environment in the house, and didn't know what to say.
The princess came, and the hostess, who was wearing old and mended clothes, was a little at a loss and could hardly speak.
With rough hands, he turned over the pottery bowl with cracked rice grains on the edge, made a bowl of tea and served it.
It's not really any kind of tea, just some cheap tea stems, and it's also old, so I usually don't want to drink it, so I only serve it when guests come.
The tea bowl is not dirty, but because it is old, it looks dirty.
The accompanying guard would not let Shang Shuqing drink such dirty stuff, so he tried to stop her, making the hostess a little embarrassed.
But Shang Shuqing didn't mind. She asked the guard to step aside, took it with both hands, took a sip, and nodded in thanks.
After that, I visited the man of the house who was lying on the dilapidated couch. Although one foot was wrapped, blood stains could still be seen under the wrapping.
It was inconvenient to get up, so Shang Shuqing said there was no need to be polite and asked him to lie down quietly and asked how his injury was.
An accompanying monk who had just examined him whispered something in Shang Shuqing's ear, saying that the male owner's foot was broken to pieces by the smashed bones and that he would be unable to do heavy work in the future.
The male protagonist looks sad and confused about the future.
The hostess was on the verge of tears. She was already weak and sick. She kept coughing all year round and occasionally coughed up blood. It was a drag on the whole family. The male host worked hard to earn some money and bought medicine for her. Finally, the princess sent someone
He came to help with diagnosis and treatment. The monks from the Thatched Cottage came to help with the treatment.
Now that my face finally has some color, I don't want the man who is the backbone of the family to have something happen to him again, and I don't know what to do in the future.
What else can Shang Shu do if she can't help them? There are too many people in similar situations in this world, and her ability is limited and she can't help them all.
She didn’t have much money, and the monthly allowance given to her by the palace was basically used by her to help the poor. Of course, if she asked for it, the palace would definitely give it to her, but now the palace has a new mistress, and she is an old girl.
I spent all my food at my brother and sister-in-law's house. If I asked for money from time to time, I would feel guilty and embarrassed to ask for money.
My brother and sister-in-law don’t spend money randomly. There are many places where money is spent in Nanzhou. My sister-in-law rarely buys jewelry. My brother even wants to spend money in a big way to solve the poverty problem in a big way. By doing this, one by one
Giving money is not the solution.
Before leaving, Shang Shuqing left behind her wishes to visit the patients. Wu Laoer from Fufangyuan who accompanied him followed the old rules and acted according to the situation according to the old rules set by Guan Fangyi.
A banknote worth a thousand silver coins was handed to the hostess.
The hostess was frightened and refused to take it. Most poor families have a better sense of shame than the rich. It would be hard to give up so much money for nothing, but she would definitely not be able to refuse it.
After leaving the door, Shang Shuqing bowed awkwardly and thanked Wu Laoer. She was also embarrassed because Guan Fangyi would spend money every time she did this.
The key point is that Guan Fangyi didn't bother to accept the favor. Just like Guan Fangyi joked to herself, in the eyes of the world, there is no difference between Qijing matchmaker and a brothel prostitute. People who say it is her money may not think it is clean. As a result
Often it was Guan Fangyi who provided the money, but it was Shang Shuqing who gained the favor.
After leaving the secluded alley and coming to the street, before boarding the bus, Yin'er once again took a fancy to the snacks sold at the roadside stalls. She pulled Shang Shuqing's sleeve and pointed at them, getting greedy.
Wu Laoer immediately walked over, threw away the money, and packed up all the snacks from the vendors.
In a carriage parked on the roadside not far away, Wu Chang and Hei Shi sat quietly inside.
At this time, Wu Chang was dressed normally, and his long hair was tied up in a bun. It would be difficult for even those familiar with him to recognize him.
Heishi slightly opened the gap in the curtains and whispered: "It's the girl who couldn't walk after seeing the food."
Wu Chang stared at Yin'er for a while, "Are you sure it's her?"
Yin'er's appearance was deeply remembered in his mind, which was also the main purpose of coming to check it out in person this time.
If this woman is a Holy Rakshasa, and if what the ghost doctor said is true, once he is about to take action one day, he will definitely make a sudden attack and kill this woman in one fell swoop before she becomes a Holy Rakshasa!
Heishi: "There happens to be a man named Yin'er right here in Thatched Cottage. This is probably not a coincidence. The most important thing is that according to the information we have learned, this Yin'er does look like a fool. Such a big man has a brain like a fool.
The three-year-old child is said to be very delicious and can eat it non-stop all day long. Also, it is indeed easy to get irritated. All this seems to be in line with Hei Li's statement."
Shang Shuqing boarded the carriage. The temporary road blockage by the palace guards in front was lifted. Heishi lowered the curtain and knocked on the door frame. The carriage they were riding in also started and followed Shang Shuqing unhurriedly.
behind the carriage.
"After discovering this Yin'er, I immediately conducted a detailed investigation and found out a very interesting thing. The first time this Yin'er appeared was after a spirit beast conference held by Wanshou Sect many years ago.
It was after that time that the Butterfly Dream Realm could no longer be closed, Niu Youdao took her back to the Maolu Villa. After the Tiandu Secret Realm was opened, Yin'er suddenly disappeared again. But this time after the Holy Rakshasa broke into the human world and disappeared,
As a result, Yin'er returned to Maolu Villa."
Wu Chang's eyes flickered.
Heishi whispered: "Holy Lord, if all these coincidences come together, it may not be a coincidence. What Hei Li said is probably true!"
Wu Chang said slowly: "In other words, there is also a problem at the Ten Thousand Beasts Gate."
Heishi nodded, "I'm afraid there is a problem."
When the carriage passed the temporary stop of the palace, Heishi opened the curtain again, gestured, and whispered: "Thatched cottage is here for the time being. Judging from the intercepted Golden Wings message here, Hei Li and the translator who contacted here
The code is authentic, and all the intercepted messages can be translated. From this, it seems that what Hei Li said is indeed true!"
Wu Chang: "Is there any useful news?"
Heishi said: "Judging from the coverage of the news in the translation, the water in this thatched cottage is indeed very deep, the secrets extend in all directions, and the involvement is extensive. However, the summonses sent out are all anonymous, and I don't know who they are sent to. I can't figure it out.
To clarify the situation, no useful information has been found yet, so I have not reported it to the Holy One yet."
Wu Chang: "Then we will track the Golden Wings one by one and find out the whereabouts of all those contacted."
Heishi hesitated and said: "The Holy Lord has a deadline of one month. I'm afraid it will be too late to track them one by one."
Wu Chang: "Cancellation within the deadline, the main task is to find out the contact person of Maolu Villa. Remember, it is better to be slower than to alert the snake."
"Yes!" Black Stone responded.
The carriage did not stop outside the palace, but kept driving away. After leaving the city, it disappeared all the way.
…
A small town that was abandoned due to the previous war has gained some popularity.
A small group of people who arrived early in the town are sorting things out.
More than 6,000 people from Xiaoyue Pavilion came rushing to enter the town. This town was the meeting place agreed with the Shang Dynasty people.
"General Luo is busy with military affairs and was unable to arrive in time. He is on his way here. There is no suitable resting place around. Only this small town allows the Lord to surrender. Please lead the people to rest. We are waiting in the town.
It's all tidied up, and I hope the master of the pavilion won't find it objectionable." The centurion who was responsible for cleaning up told Lu Yuan sonorously and forcefully.
Lu Yuan would normally not take him seriously as a mere centurion, but at this time he still nodded with a smile on his face and said, "Okay, thank you for your work."
He turned around and signaled, and someone immediately came forward and took out a gold ticket that could be exchanged for a hundred gold coins as a reward.
The centurion was not polite and accepted it with a smile, "If you have any instructions, master, just say hello. All the residents of this town have fled, so you can choose your own place to stay." However, he still reminded him, "The largest house in the town is
It's for the general."
The implication is that you should not occupy it.
Lu Yuan was a little dissatisfied, but he still smiled and said: "General Luo's marching center naturally needs a more spacious place, and it should be."
After the centurion retired, Lu Yuan waved his hand, and people immediately dispersed to inspect the town.
A carriage entered the town and stopped. Zhuang Hong and Xia Lingpei got out of the car and looked around the desolate town. Their mood was as desolate as the environment.
Shortly after the mother and son were taken down and settled, a horse came galloping over. A person in charge of contacting Xiaoyue Pavilion jumped off his horse and reported to Lu Yuan: "Pavilion Master, Luo Da'an is here, half a stick of incense
It should be here soon."
Lu Yuan made a sound, waved to several elders and said: "When people are under the eaves, they have to bow their heads to make others look good. Let's go and greet them together."
A group of people quickly left the town and were waiting at the main entrance outside the town.
Soon, there was a faint sound of thunder on the distant ground, and then I saw billowing smoke and dust coming like a dragon.
After a while, a cavalry group appeared in sight like a gust of wind.
While several people were watching, an elder clicked his tongue and said, "The Yingyang Wulie Guards are here, and their momentum is indeed worthy of their reputation!"
Three thousand cavalry rushed to the outside of the town. The leading general raised his gun in the air. The cavalry team moved like thunder and was as quiet as a virgin, and the cavalry team came to an emergency stop. The horses neighed one after another.
After stopping, the dust that was thrown up rushed towards the few people who greeted him.
When the smoke and dust dispersed, the general under the "Luo" banner also revealed his true appearance.
He looked young, dressed in battle armor, holding a black iron spear, and wearing a war horse with shiny black hair. He was none other than Luo Daan.
While fighting abroad, the conditions were predictable. He was already a weathered man, but he was very energetic. He had a short beard on his chin, his eyes were bright and energetic, and he had a breathtaking aura.
He may look young, but he is already a commander with half a million troops. He has made his first success in conquering and carving up the territory of the Qin State. In addition, he is a disciple of Meng Shanming, so no one dares to despise him.
With Meng Shanming's support and guidance, and given the opportunity to practice, Luo Da'an has far surpassed his father Luo An based on his current achievements alone.
Luo An had never commanded 30,000 troops during his lifetime, so naturally he was far inferior to his son's achievements.
However, it was also because Luo An was so loyal that he risked his life to block the arrow for Meng Shanming and sacrificed his life to save Meng Shanming. It can be said that this exchanged the future of his two sons.
Two sons, one is in the army and studies under Meng Shanming; the other is in politics and studies under Lan Ruoting.
Their masters were both top military and political figures in Nanzhou, and their futures were predictable.
The two brothers have a bright future. Mother is more valuable than son. Luo An's widow is now naturally one of the noble ladies in Nanzhou's sphere of influence, enjoying glory and wealth.
