"Lord, a letter from the pass!" Zhang Qingyun came to Prime Minister Li with a letter: "Marshal Li Zhen led 300,000 horses north to support Zhenbei City and successfully defended Zhenbei City. The prairie army was defeated!
General Yu Chijing of the South went south to fight the White Lotus Sect for the first time, defeated the White Lotus Sect's 100,000 troops, and recaptured two county towns in succession. The situation in all parts of Daqian has improved!"
Xiliang City's intelligence was not only outside the pass, but also began to be laid out inside the pass. Following the relationship with Qingye Xuan, Xiliang arranged for more than a dozen people to enter the pass in order to establish Xiliang's own intelligence agency.
Prime Minister Li didn't ask how much confidential information they could detect, as long as he knew that all the major forces in the pass knew the information, and Xiliang City could also know it.
No one outside Xiliang Pass can stop the rise of Xiliang City. The main force of the Great Wall Legion is in the far north, and the elites of the remaining troops are also on the grasslands. It seems that only those who can restrain Xiliang City now Xuantian Sect.
Although Xuantian Sect is strong, it is only because of the strong men in the middle and high levels. As far as Xiliang City is concerned, Xuantian Sect is not as strong as the remaining troops in Xiliang City.
Listening to the news reported by Zhang Qingyun, Li Xiang felt something was wrong: "Aren't there any changes in the Monster Clan in the south and the Dragon Clan in the East China Sea?"
Zhang Qingyun looked at the letter: "Over in the East China Sea, the First Naval Force of Dagan is patrolling the sea. Countless warships are holding the sea tightly. It is difficult for the East China Sea Dragon Clan to move!
The Monster Clan in the south has not taken any action for the time being. The White Lotus Sect occupies several counties that are connected to the Monster Clan. It is impossible to know in time if there are any changes made by the Monster Clan.
At present, the grassland people's betrayal has been repelled, and the demon clan should not jump out at this time!"
Li Xiang chuckled and said: "The grassland people were defeated. They were defeated, but the entire grassland was returned to the hands of the grassland people. With the resources on the grassland, the current population of the grassland people, and various crafts, they did it with Da The only difference is population. Among the top masters, Da Gan indeed has the most, but Da Gan also has to face many enemies, including strong monsters, strong dragons, overseas strong and grassland people.
If the top experts in Da Gan want to move one side, the experts from other parties will gather together, so in terms of top experts in Da Gan, the most they can do is to prevent the top experts from both sides from taking action!"
Li Xiang looked at the heavy snow outside the window with some sigh: "This is most likely the sunny day before the blizzard. I just hope that the heavy snow will not fall too heavy this time, otherwise there may be even more chaos over there in Daqian!"
Li Xiang is not afraid that Da Gan will be defeated by other forces. The only ones who can defeat Da Gan are Da Gan, the grassland people, the demon clan and the East China Sea Dragon clan. Even if they unite, they cannot defeat Da Gan.
What Daqian can fight now is the border troops everywhere. When Daqian's border troops are almost exhausted, that's when those people make trouble.
Li Xiang shook his head to clear these things from his mind. Wouldn't it be better for him to be more chaotic?
If Daqian was in its prime, he would have been able to build his empire in these icy and snowy places where it was only warm for a few months a year.
"Those cities are relatively stable recently!" Li Xiang leaned back on his chair and took a sip of tea. The stove in the room was burning, and the heat drove the cold air out of the room. The whole room was very warm.
In winter, when he was resting, he brought back those ferocious beasts and gave them to his soldiers to eat. The meat of ferocious beasts contained a lot of vitality, which was of great benefit to the human body. It would be a waste to use it to recruit soldiers.
Anyway, there is no shortage of food in Xiliang now. Juhu City on the edge of Juhu City has started its annual winter fishing. Juhu is so big that it took Xiliang fishermen two years to explore half of this huge lake.
The giant lake extends all the way to the north, into the northern snow forest. There is a larger lake there, with countless tall snow forest trees on both sides. The lake is as vast as the sea.
The fisherman can't see the end. The lake there is frozen all year round. The farther you go in, the stronger the ice becomes. There are countless huge ferocious beasts under the lake water there.
Among the ferocious beasts that live in the water, a fisherman once saw a fish that was over a hundred meters long jumping out of the ice and dragging the ferocious beast that was walking on the thick ice into the water in one gulp.
Over there in Xiliang, the fishing boat is like a leaf on the water. Do the ferocious beasts in the water care about a leaf on the water?
There is no need to worry about the lack of fish in the giant lake. Xiliang people can eat delicious fish every winter.
The fish in the giant lake taste very delicious. It is a pleasure for cats to eat delicious fish at home in the cold winter.
In the winter, farmers in Xiliang still need to be busy, and soldiers need to be trained. Most people rest at home, waiting for the beginning of spring, which is when they start to get busy again.
"Very stable!" Zhang Qingyun said something suddenly occurred to him, looked at Li Xiang and said with a smile: "My lord, you are now twenty-one years old this year!"
Do you think you should make preparations for your marriage? Even if you don’t want to start a family, you can still get one first!"
"Cough cough cough!" Li Xiang was choked and looked up at Zhang Qingyun: "Is this your intention or Li Yi's intention?"
Zhang Qingyun said: "This is my subordinate's wish. My lord, Xiliang City is becoming more and more powerful now, and everyone needs to be more stable!"
Li Xiang knows what Zhang Qingyun means. A power will become more stable when it has a future heir.
Zhang Qingyun continued: "There are many women in places like Qingzhu Village, Beixuan City, and Nanli City. Many of them are from official families. They are guaranteed to be virgins. Do you think my lord?"
Li Xiang put down the teacup and thought carefully. Zhang Qingyun was full of expectations. Although there were many women in Xiliang, all of them were very strong and stronger than Zhang Qingyun.
Zhang Qingyun was very sure that his lord would not like these women, so he could only look for them among their large cadres.
He very much hopes that Li Xiang can marry a Daqian woman. This is related to the future of Xiliang. Now he is the only one of the Daqian people who has entered the upper echelons of Xiliang, but he believes that with the development of Xiliang City,
There will only be more and more Dagan people in Xiliang City, and their positions will become more and more important...
It’s not that Zhang Qingyun thinks too much, but the development of this matter is inevitable!
"You and Li Yi decide!" Li Xiang put down the tea cup: "Remember, you can't use force, understand?"
Zhang Qingyun's face was full of joy: "My subordinates know this, so they will discuss it with Manager Li Yi!"
In Li Xiang's uncomprehending eyes, Zhang Qingyun strode out of the house. The master is marrying a married woman. If a boy is born...
Zhang Qingyun ran towards Li Yi's mansion with joy. He still had to discuss this matter with Li Yi, the big manager!
.....
"This Xiliang City is really not an ordinary force!" In a house in Nanli City that was much better than other houses, four people gathered around the fire.
The missing saint of the White Lotus Sect is one of the four.
The saint said: "Li Xiang, the lord of Xiliang City, still has no maids. I mobilized the followers in Qingzhu Village and Beixuan City to suggest to Zhang Qingyun that Li Xiang take concubines. This is how our White Lotus Sect broke into Xiliang City.
Best moment ever!”
"Xiliang City has a magical method that we don't use clearly. We can clearly know whether a person is good or bad for Xiliang. The person chosen this time must be someone who is not our White Lotus Sect, but has a close relationship with the White Lotus Sect.
People, and I don’t hate Xiliang!”
"Holy girl, are there any candidates?" a young man next to me asked.
The saint looked at the eldest middle-aged man among the four people. One of the four was covered with only a pair of beautiful eyes. The other was an ordinary-looking young man. The leader of the White Lotus Assassination Department was also the last member of the White Lotus Sect.
The violent organization, an old man, a priest of the White Lotus Sect, who usually doesn't take care of things, and finally a middle-aged man with a mustache.
"Master Wu, your daughter must be sixteen years old!" The saint looked at the middle-aged man with a smile: "We have protected Master Wu and his family safely outside the customs, so it's time for you to do something in return!
Nowadays, the most powerful city outside the Xiliang Pass is Xiliang City. If the women of my Holy Cult were not outside the pass, and my cultivation is really a bit fussy, I would still want to be the mistress of Xiliang!"
When the middle-aged man heard what the saint said, he finally understood why the meeting was held at his house tonight. It turned out that the saint had paid this attention.
The middle-aged man thought for a moment, if his daughter really married Li Xiang, the king of Xiliang, now Li Xiang's identity would not only be the lord of Xiliang City, but Li Xiang, the king of Xiliang.
The Xiliang army was unstoppable outside the Northwest Pass, and even the Great Wall Army was defeated at the hands of Xiliang City.
After the spring of next year, Xiliang will dominate the outside of the Pass. Outside the Northwest Pass, the Xiliang City family will dominate, and the people inside the Pass will not be able to hinder the Xiliang army outside the Pass.
If my daughter becomes the mistress of Xiliang, this status will be enough for their family to live a good life outside the customs.
The middle-aged man thought for a moment: "Okay, but I need to discuss it with my daughter!"
The White Lotus Saint smiled brightly: "I hope Master Wu, please hurry up and wait for no one. I think Xiliang will take action soon!"
"Saint, please rest assured that it will be confirmed before the operation in Xiliang. I hope the saint will help me then!" Wu Zhenghao said.
"Don't worry!" Saint White Lotus said with a chuckle: "As long as it is related to the Holy Religion, I will do my best, so I won't bother Mr. Wu. If you have anything to do, you can ask Captain Zhou and Ba Lao to offer sacrifices. They will help.
You get things done!”
"They live next to you, don't worry about not finding them!" Said Zhe, the saint of the White Lotus Sect, walked out of the house: "If you want to find me, you can contact them!"
Zhou Wang, the leader of the White Lotus Sect's Assassination Department, said to Wu Zhenghao: "Zhou Wang, the Assassination Department, lives in the house on the left. If Mr. Wu has something to do, you can come and say goodbye!"
The white-haired old priest smiled and said to Wu Zhenghao: "Priest Ba En, if you have anything to do in the future, you can come to the old man and me. I live on your right, and you can come and go at ordinary times. That's it, I won't disturb your family."
Got it!"
Ba En and Zhou Wang left the house, and soon Wu Zhenghao was the only one left in the house.
Wu Zhenghao was sitting alone by the fire. He knew very well why the saint put these two people next to him. Didn't she just want to control him?
He doesn't believe in the White Lotus Sect. The reason why he joined the White Lotus Sect is that he wanted to come outside the Northwest Pass safely. He offended the powerful. Without the protection of the White Lotus Sect, it would be a miracle that he could reach the outside of the pass.
Because of this relationship, he has always been loyal to the White Lotus Sect.
If his daughter really marries Li Xiang, no matter what position he is in, Wu Zhenghao feels that it is an opportunity. Isn't it like looking for a place where he can put everything he has learned?
Previously, due to his status as a member of the White Lotus Sect, he was not recruited to recruit officials in Xiliang City, but he could join in with the help of his daughter's status.
The development potential of Xiliang City is very strong. If the entire outside of the customs is taken into hands, the materials received every year will be an astronomical figure.
However, the premise is that the relationship between Xiliang City and the Great Wall Legion must be repaired. Otherwise, the Great Wall Legion will close the door and no matter how much supplies you have, it will be in vain if you cannot sell them.
Just when Wu Zhenghao was thinking about his future ambitions, two women came in talking and laughing. Wu Zhenghao heard their voices and took his thoughts back. If the White Lotus Sect really wants his daughter to be selected, he can definitely choose it.
Go in.
But there is another question: whether his daughter is willing to go!
His daughter has had her own opinions since she was a child, and it was because of her that he offended the powerful and came to this country.
"Dad, what do you see in my hand?" A voice as crisp as a lark sounded. Wu Zhenghao looked up and saw his daughter holding a bag of tea, with a smile on her face.
His daughter inherited his height, which is more than 1.7 meters. Because she started to practice some dancing, her daughter was a little thinner, and her appearance was inherited from her mother.
It's not the kind of stunning beauty, it's the Jiangnan kind of beauty that's soft and gentle, and makes people fall in love with it the more they look at it.
However, what is very different from my daughter's appearance and voice is my daughter's character, which is somewhat strong.
"Dad, what's wrong with you?" Wu Yating saw that her father had a dull look on his face and stepped forward as if he was facing a difficult problem.
Wu Zhenghao turned around and looked at the tea in his daughter's hand: "Where did you get this tea?"
"This tea!" Wu Yating said: "When we were outside the door, we met a family that had just moved here. My mother and I went to help with the writing, and they gave us this tea, saying that they picked it themselves.
,It is worthless!
I didn't want it at first, but I thought that daddy hadn't tasted the tea leaves for two months, so I shamelessly took the tea leaves back.
Daddy, what were you thinking about just now? You were so fascinated!"
Wu Zhenghao thought for a while and said tentatively: "Yating, what do you think of the city lord?"
"City Lord?" Wu Yating put the tea leaves on the table: "That City Lord?"
Wu Zhenghao said: "That's Li Xiang, the lord of Xiliang City!"
"City Lord Li?" Wu Yating carefully played with the tea leaves and took out the tea-making tools: "I don't know him. I heard from others that he has three heads and six arms, and a strong back and a strong back. He is like the demon lord who conquered the outside of the Northwest Pass that day!"
"Then..." Wu Zhenghao was about to speak when the sound of fighting came from outside.
