A fire burned away public opinion's attention to Gaoluan County.

After Fang County's death, a division ordered someone to investigate, but in the end, he only said that it was an accident; Instead, the officials in charge of the investigation followed the clues to find the long-abandoned mine, from which more than a dozen bodies and dry bones were exhumed, but no one cared about the black coal kiln by this time.

Although people know that there must be something greasy here, and although many people scold the darkness behind the fire, everything can only be hastily ended.

Xiao Jing suffered a big blow. Judging from all kinds of signs, there must be someone behind the black mine, and Master Fang is just a small role in a pawn, and the real mastermind behind the scenes is still hiding in the shadows.

Since he came to Darui and ran a mirror newspaper, this is the first time that a wicked person has run away from under his nose, and he is naturally a little depressed in his heart.

Of course, Xiao Jing will not give up. However, half a month later, an explosive news reached Ruidu, and he had to temporarily put aside his plan.

Mo Jie Khan of Beihu is dead!

Hearing the news, some uninformed ordinary people were very happy, after all, in their opinion, there are few good people in Beihu, and this time it was the Great Khan of the Hu people who died, and the bad things of the enemy must be a good thing for us, how can we do it without hanging firecrackers to celebrate?

And the princes in the court are not so optimistic. The entire center of power was enveloped by an oppressive atmosphere, and many officials had not seen a smile on the faces of their superiors for a long time.

As is customary, the steppe tribes will meet within two months, at which point a new Great Khan will be elected. If there is no accident, the new Khan King must be Lu Chong, and his reputation as a hungry wolf has long spread throughout the continent. Once he gains power, the peace between the North and the South will be shattered, and a catastrophe is imminent.

Darui's national finances are simply not enough to support a full-scale war, and if it really fights, it will not be able to recover, at least it will be greatly damaged, and there is a risk that the country will not be protected.

At this time, it is the most beautiful day of spring, but the terrible situation is "black clouds crush the city and want to destroy it", so that the nobles with heavy hearts have no time to enjoy the beautiful spring.

Puhua Town.

Xiao Jing clenched his teeth, his face full of melancholy.

The newspaper was in a meeting, but he didn't listen to anyone else. If you talk about Lu Chong's understanding, he is definitely one of the best among the Han people, and in his opinion, war is inevitable, so it is better to put aside distractions and prepare early.

Xiao Jing's heart has drifted to the far northern border. He knew the cruelty of the battle array, so he didn't want to see countless people fighting to the death for one person's ambition.

He only hated that he didn't do things carefully enough, and he accidentally let Lu Chong escape. That kid is very young, and he has at least thirty years to live, and he knew that this would be better than killing him with a knife, even if there is some short-term pain of restless boundaries, it is better than letting him lead the entire Beihu Nan after making great efforts!

Also, Mo Jie Khan died...... Sansa must be sad, right?

Lu Shanshan and Mo Jie Khan are like father and daughter, and their relationship is excellent. In the absence of the Great Khan, she has lost the only relative in this world, and she must be grief-stricken at this moment.

Dong Xiaoya looked at her for a long time, but Xiao Jing was still outside the world; As a last resort, she had to cough lightly and said, "President Xiao doesn't have anything to say, let's open here today, the meeting is over." ”

Everyone walked out of the conference room with strange expressions. Qin Ziqian deliberately lagged behind by half a step, and when everyone left, she walked back to her husband's side and said softly: "The north is restless, are you worried about Lu Shanshan?" ”

Xiao Jing nodded subconsciously, and then he saw the person questioning, and his face immediately revealed embarrassment.

Qin Ziqian smiled and said: "Sister Shanshan is the princess of Beihu, even if her father Khan is gone, there will be no danger for a while, you can put your heart back in your stomach." Man, you always have to look at Shu, you can't be busy with your own affairs, and you have to worry about the confidantes outside, I really don't know whether to say that you value love and righteousness, or ...... Ay. ”

Leaving behind such a slightly sour taste, Qin Ziqian walked away lightly.

Xiao Jing smiled bitterly twice. Qin Ziqian has always been at odds with Lu Shanshan, but when she speaks, she is actually comforting people, this Nizi still thinks of friendship in her bones, but she is so hard-mouthed and soft-hearted before and after marriage, and there is no change at all.

What he didn't know was that Qin Ziqian stopped in the courtyard looking at the north for a long time, until he heard the sound of the chair he got up and walked away quickly......

Grassland.

Lu Shanshan sat next to the yurt, her eyes red.

In the past few days, her tears have been like a flash flood that bursts the embankment, and she can't hold back for a moment. Even if you finally fall asleep, you will still wake up crying in your sleep, and then cry silently alone in the boundless dark night.

The people around her knelt down and begged her to mourn, afraid that if she continued like this, she would cry blindly; Finally stopping her tears, she kept her posture and stared blankly at the sky, motionless for a few hours.

Regarding the death of Mo Jie Khan, there are various opinions. Some people say that the Great Khan died of a sudden illness, in Lu Shanshan's opinion, this is obviously impossible, although his father Khan is not young, but he can still ride a horse, pull a hard bow, and his body is good on weekdays, how can he say that it is gone?

There is also an eyeliner who told Lu Shanshan that his father Khan was killed by the guards. This is also ridiculous, the Great Khan is surrounded by the most loyal guards, who eats the bear's heart leopard gall, will take the initiative in the steppe?

But compared with the two, she can only believe in the second possibility.

There must be demons when things go wrong, and power changes are often accompanied by blood, so this is indeed the most reasonable explanation.

Coupled with the fact that the person in charge of the funeral hurriedly incinerated the body after the death of the Great Khan, and did not even wait for her, the princess of Yingyue, to rush back after receiving the news, the matter was even more suspicious.

If there is a coup d'état, who will benefit the most? The answer is self-explanatory.

At this moment, the voice she least wanted to hear suddenly sounded nearby: "Shanshan, are you still sad about the Great Khan?" Look at you, you're all emaciated......"

Before the man finished speaking, Lu Shanshan suddenly burst out and put the waist knife on his neck, and said word by word: "Lu Chong, you said that the death of Father Khan has nothing to do with you, so do you dare to swear to the god Erla?" ”

The young man standing in front of Shanshan was none other than Lu Chong. He waved his hand casually, and the guards who drew their swords stepped aside.

"So you're still thinking about this? Okay, so what if I swear for your peace of mind? ”

As he spoke, Lu Chong put away his smile and said: "The almighty Ela God is above, and your people Lu Chong hereby swears: I really don't know about the death of Mo Jie Khan, if this matter is really related to me, let me die a miserable death with ten thousand arrows through my heart!" ”

After making an oath, he turned his head and smiled and groaned, "Is this good? ”
