Shanggu Town is Xiao Yang's hometown, it was once just a very dilapidated ancient city, although there were quite glorious days, such as in the Qin and Han dynasties, it was the main city of Shanggu County under the jurisdiction of sixteen counties, including the current Huailai, Zhuolu, Chicheng, Yanqing and other county seats, which can be regarded as the most important strategic place north of the Great Wall. However, after many wars in the last years of the Northern Wei Dynasty, this prosperous ancient city of thousands of years quickly decayed, and since then it has been silent for nearly a thousand years.

However, in the last six months, it has been accompanied by the rise of Phoenix Villa, this ancient city that has been silent for thousands of years is rejuvenated, at the end of last year, shops were opened in this ancient city, and the office was ready to be resident with a population of more than 30,000 directly, and these days because of the relationship between the temple fair, the caravans from all over the world gathered near the ancient city The prosperity is comparable to the capital, or it is more prosperous than the capital that has been panicked by the Wara army and the internal political struggle in the past half a year.

Looking at the bustling market and looking at the crowds of people coming and going, Yu Qian really couldn't believe it, but he hadn't seen it for a few months, this lonely ancient city for many years had become so prosperous, although most of the people who came and went were from nearby towns and villages to catch the market, of course, there were caravans from other places, there were Hu people from all over the Western Regions, people from various tribes in the grassland, and even merchants from all over the Nanyang, and of course caravans from all over the Ming Dynasty.

The ancient city of Shanggu Town is still very dilapidated, but this temple fair is lively beyond imagination, and in the crowd, I also saw some people wearing the uniforms of the Phoenix Villa patrol security team patrolling to maintain law and order, there was no situation of ruffians and hooligans making trouble, and there was no situation of the second generation of officials bullying men and women, and this place was completely under the management of Phoenix Villa.

The signs of Phoenix Villa can be seen almost everywhere, and the signboards of restaurants, teahouses, and restaurants on both sides of the street almost all have the unique logo of Phoenix Villa, and even those merchants who come and go from north to south habitually call this Shanggu town Phoenix City.

"Lord Yu, what are you thinking?" The privet who had been walking all the way from the capital saw Yu Qian a little stunned and couldn't help asking.

"That person actually brought a deserted ancient city back to life in just half a year, which is really commendable."

"Phoenix Villa is not like the imperial court, a large group of officials are fighting each other, and it will certainly be very fast to concentrate on development!"

"You also know that there is a problem with the disharmony of the imperial court, why don't you persuade the queen mother?"

"Adults think too much, what qualifications does the little woman have to persuade the Queen Mother...... By the way, do you think the owner of the Phoenix Village is a good person or a bad person? ”

"How can good and bad be generalized, that person saved the people of Li from fire and water, he can naturally be regarded as a good person, but he killed the imperial court officials without authorization, and ignored the ban of the imperial court and privately formed a patrol security team of more than 2,000 people, but it is equivalent to rebellion."

"Come to this set again, the court is not capable of saving the people, but the people are not allowed to find a way to survive by themselves, the adults will not want to kill the villa, that person is not the father of the family will be arrested and apologized, and the time will ......"

"Don't worry, now is the time for the imperial court to employ people, and it is just a recruitment for the Phoenix Villa."

"My lord is still thinking about recruiting An, didn't the last imperial court's recruitment fail?"

"Not to mention how I recruited An, how did the Queen Mother want to deal with it, why did she send you here?"

"Adults want to hear the truth?"

"That's nature."

"The Queen Mother wants to ask the owner of the village to help save the emperor, as for the conditions offered, according to some secret news, the owner of the Phoenix village likes to collect precious jade, so he sent some priceless jade, and there are also three stunning beauties from Jiangnan who accompanied me!"

“…… The Queen Mother's behavior is a loss of dignity for the court! “

"I don't think the Queen Mother has lost the dignity of the court, but it is Lord Yu who has disappointed the Queen Mother too much by what she did at the beginning, and now she has no choice but to do it."

"Virgin, why have you changed, do you also support the young crown prince to ascend the throne, and then the queen mother will listen to the government?"

"Why not, as long as the adults and the queen mother cooperate well, they will not develop into the current situation when they govern the government together."

"What is it that has changed your mind so much, didn't you think I was doing the right thing in the first place?"

“…… This is a secret letter that the Queen Mother has received, so let's see for yourself! The privet thought about it and simply took out a secret letter and handed it to Yu Qian, "The new monarch who assisted the lord on the throne doesn't want to save the emperor at all, if this development continues, the prince will be deposed sooner or later, don't think that you can still turn the tide, maybe the end of the cunning rabbit and the death of the lackey will not be too good." ”

Seeing that the secret report Yu Qian looked a little sluggish, he was indeed a little surprised, and he was sent out to negotiate the matter of taking back the Emperor Taishang, but he didn't give the other party any benefit, and even the secret letter was completely in the form of an order, so that the other party obediently sent the Emperor Taishang back, or he would send a large army to destroy Wara or something.

I'm sure how annoying it would be to see this kind of secret letter first, will it directly cut the Emperor Taishang to vent his hatred?

"The lord is a good official who is honest and honest, and he is also a great loyal minister, the original emperor was in trouble, and it is a matter of course for the prince to succeed to the throne, but the lord as a courtier does not take into account the opinion of the queen mother, and makes the decision to support the king as the emperor......"

"You stop talking, there are a lot of implications, you are not an official in the court, you don't know the depth of it, don't comment indiscriminately, now that the overall situation has been decided, it is better for Mo Sheng to have other thoughts...... I will do my best to save the Emperor! ”

"Forget it, anyway, the emperor and the little girl are not familiar with each other!" As he spoke, he directly led a small team of his own men and horses into the city.

Yu Qian also took a small team of his own people into the city to live and rest, and by the way, he contacted the staff of Phoenix Villa in this Shanggu City, and after the Lantern Festival, he was ready to go up the mountain to discuss the matter of Zhao'an.

……

Zhang Tiancheng in the villa did not know about the two groups of envoys coming from the imperial court, although the intelligence system of the Phoenix Villa had been gradually built, but it was aimed at the collection of information such as bandit armies, and the non-professional intelligence officers did not notice the two groups of envoys disguised as caravans.

Of course, it doesn't matter if you notice it, anyway, as long as it is not a large army or a large number of bandits, Phoenix Villa can rest easy, and it is only right to continue to practice basic skills.

The group of spirit grass combinations taken a few years ago, although it seems that the attribute points have not been added much, but the effect of the improvement has been highlighted little by little in the past ten days, especially the perception of sight, hearing and touch has become more and more acute, and it is not just as simple as hearing and distinguishing the position, but it can actually perceive all the dangers within three feet of the vicinity.

That kind of perception is not auditory and visual, but rather the skin can sense the slightest vibration around it, including the vibration of the air and the vibration of the earth, and then quickly form the direction of the attack in the brain.

In order to verify this, he even deliberately blindfolded his ears and let Xiao Yang attack himself with a wooden knife, although it was quite jerky to dodge, and from time to time he would be hit by Xiao Yang without mercy, but he could really feel that some attacks were successfully avoided.

"Xiao Yang, I said that I don't hit people in the face, why do you always greet me in the face?" After finishing the workout, my face was slashed several times by the opponent's wooden knife, and it hurt a little.

"Because other places don't hurt Master at all, and if it doesn't hurt, it won't have a long memory!"

"You're really getting more and more unruly, believe it or not I'm beating you?"

"People like to be beaten by their master and their father, so master can beat him as much as he wants!"

"You're a masochist!"

"I just like that Master will treat me every time he hurts me in an accident...... And every time you recover from an injury, your internal strength will increase a little! ”
