When he saw the lively scene in the city, he couldn't help but frown. However, separated by a gate and a canyon, the scenes between the two countries were completely different.
Qingquan City is not only prosperous and lively, but also has a variety of shops. Everyone is in a particularly good state of mind, and even vendors and customers are in high spirits when they quarrel.
But as he walked from the capital of Long'an Kingdom, what he saw along the way was that one city became bleaker than the other. Not to mention the bustling city, there were even fewer people walking on the streets.
Just because this can reduce physical strength and not have to obtain too much salt, not to mention the officers and soldiers guarding the city gates in each city, they are all as listless as eggplants beaten by frost, and they are not even willing to raise their eyelids.
Moreover, along the way, he saw several officers and soldiers causing trouble, fighting with the local people just to grab more salt. This also made him a little confused. There was no salt in the government, so how could these people still have it in their hands?
What about salt?
When he saw a pattern printed on the bag containing salt, he suddenly realized that the pattern was a secret organization called Feng Qing Pavilion. He heard that this organization and his father had always been proud of each other.
Yunmo Pavilion is comparable, and there is a rumor that Fengqing Pavilion is under the command of King Chen of Sheng Qin.
However, this is just a rumor and has not been recognized by himself. After seeing it this time and thinking about it carefully, he really agrees with this statement. Otherwise, this organization is too powerful and the entire Long An Kingdom
They have never seen a single salt brought in from Shengqin. How did they get the salt? They also distributed it to the people, and it was limited to the people. The government did not see a single salt.
After the officials of the mission handed the document to the local officials, they waited at the inn in Qingquan City for five days, but there was still no reply.
During these five days, their movements were also restricted. The officers and soldiers guarding them were not ordinary ordinary officers and soldiers, but a team of more than 300 officers and soldiers wearing black armor. And all he could think of was being praised.
It is the vanguard camp of the mysterious black armor army.
To be able to mobilize such strong troops to guard their group of envoys is really overkill, but the effect is particularly obvious.
No one could walk out of the inn. Those who refused to obey orders and forced their way in were all beaten and seriously injured. They did not send medical officers to come for diagnosis and treatment. They could only let the medical officers accompanying the mission handle it themselves. The shortage of medicines was not available.
They will be provided, just to ensure that the injured do not die.
This kind of neglect aroused the emotions of the accompanying members of the Long Anguo delegation, and they all came to him to complain.
Jing Hongjian could only forcefully come forward to negotiate, but no matter what he said, none of the Xuanjia soldiers guarding him paid attention to him and did not say a word to them at all. But if he stepped out of the cordon drawn on the ground,
If so, I would cut it directly without giving them any chance to explain.
Jing Hongjian could only say a harsh word: "When I see His Highness King Chen of your country, I will tell you the truth about your evil deeds and rude treatment. I know that Sheng Qin has always been
In a country of etiquette, His Royal Highness King Chen has strict military discipline, how can we allow you people to damage the state of Sheng Qin and damage King Chen's reputation?"
And these people were like stone statues, standing there without saying a word. Except for the eyes of the helmets on their faces, he could see their contemptuous eyes. He really thought they were talking to the stone statues.
Woolen cloth.
It wasn't until the morning of the fifth day that Qingquan City sent officials to negotiate with them, but what they sent was only a seventh-grade clerk. He just returned the customs clearance document and stretched out his hand in the direction of the door of the post house: "Everyone
You can take the CD with you and leave Qingquan City, but everyone must remember that your route is direct to Baifeng City, so don’t choose other roads. The Holy Qin land is rich in resources and beautiful scenery. You’d better take care of yourselves.
Eyes and feet, don't go the wrong way, otherwise it will be of no benefit to anyone. The city guard is busy with official duties, so I won't see you off. The time limit is to leave the city before noon, and there must be no mistakes. Along the way, the Xuanjia Army will
We will be with you every step of the way, so you can rest assured about your safety."
With these words, even the most stupid person could understand that he was about to be escorted to Baifeng City. This was a particularly disrespectful approach to those in the mission.
Someone immediately protested, and the Guang? doctor of Long Anguo said angrily: "Does His Highness King Chen of your country know what you are doing? Aren't you afraid of being ridiculed by the world for neglecting envoys from other countries? The majestic Qin Empire, why?
How could you be so rude?"
The clerk didn't care at all. He held his hands in front of him and calmly looked at the man blowing his beard and staring, blaming him righteously.
After he finished speaking, the clerk raised his eyebrows and looked at him: "Has this gentleman finished speaking?"
"What? It's unreasonable. Don't you know how to answer?" The doctor still snorted with dignity.
The secretary shook his head slightly: "No, I just want to remind the members of your mission that it is best to curb your bossy temper. The current Cangque County is the vassal territory of His Highness King Chen. The vassal king has orders.
Anyone who comes from Long'an Kingdom, especially the courtiers and royal family members of Long'an Kingdom, do not need to be treated with courtesy. They are not welcome in the first place. Allowing you to enter Baifeng City is also a gift from His Highness King Chen. Everyone,
My Highness’s temper is not particularly good, so you should take care of yourself. It’s getting late, so let’s hit the road early. I wish you all a safe journey!”
After he finished speaking, he threw down his sleeves and strode out of the inn.
The people from the mission wanted to fight for it again, but as soon as they followed them out of the post house, they were blocked by the Xuanjia Army guarding the door. They really didn't dare to challenge these people, so they could only retreat obediently.
They were very obedient and left Qingquan City within the time limit. Accompanying them was the Xuanjia Army, which consisted of five hundred people.
When they left the city gate, a homing pigeon flew out of the city and headed towards Baifeng City.
Jing Hongjian, who was sitting in the carriage, was a little afraid of this group of Xuanjia troops, but he still bravely opened the curtains of the carriage and said to the people outside the carriage: "Excuse me, can you ask your steward to come over?"
Come and ask me if I have anything."
This time Xuan Jiajun spoke, his voice cold and dull: "Wait!"
When Jing Hongjian lowered the car curtains, he felt his head was spinning. He wiped the slight sweat on his forehead with his sleeve and breathed out softly.
After a while, there was a tap from the outside of the carriage: "You are looking for me, Pioneer. What do you want?"
Jing Hongjian immediately raised the car curtains. When he saw the handsome and clean face with the helmet mask removed, he couldn't help but be stunned. This person was too young.
"What's the matter?" Seeing that he only looked at her blankly, Xiao Yanli asked again.
"In Halong Anguo, Wang Jing Hongjian met the vanguard general." He immediately clasped his fists and saluted.
"I know who you are, what's the matter?" Xiao Yanli's attitude was settled, but the impatience in his eyes was still very obvious.
Jing Hongjian took another deep breath and plucked up the courage to say: "I would like to ask, are you all accompanying me like this along the way? Is it too much of a waste of time and effort?"
"You don't need to worry about this. We are just following orders, and there are many people in the county. Guards like ours are really not comparable to the labor force, because your standards are not enough. Just sit down and sit down. It's best not to
If you cause trouble, you can reach Baifeng City faster and complete the purpose of your trip. Otherwise, our Holy Qin Cangque County has a vast land and many forests, and we can bury 8,000 dead people everywhere." Xiao Yanli said coldly.
, and drove the horse forward.
Then I heard him shout loudly: "The formation remains unchanged, move forward at full speed, we must enter Quliu Town within an hour."
"Yes!" A dull and neat voice sounded, which shocked everyone in the Long Anguo envoy sitting in the carriage, and then the carriage accelerated forward.
Even when passing through potholes, he didn't slow down, causing the people inside the car to scream in surprise and screams, but no one outside the car paid attention.
