Chapter 67: Lanzhou Clouds

Different from the city-wide celebration of the barbarian Heavenly Wolf City, Fengcang City, the capital of Lanzhou, was shrouded in a haze at this time.

Sun Yuanjie, the head of the contemporary Lanzhou king, has not appeared in public for more than a year, and it is rumored that Sun Yuanjie is terminally ill. Recently, a holy decree came, appointing Bai Jin, the third prince who had completed the mission of peace and proximity, to stay in Zhenxueguan, and gave him a position to stay in Lanzhou.

Although nominally the Lanzhou guards are still under the jurisdiction of the king of Lanzhou, due to the special status of the three princes, this Lanzhou stay-behind has a very strong influence, and even the representative of the foreign delegation from Lanzhou, Qin Ming, the deputy governor of the Lanzhou army, is clearly sitting on Bai Jin's side.

The situation in the officialdom has always been the result of wrestling between all parties, and the Lanzhou Palace, which has stood in the north for thousands of years, has long been commonplace and can barely accept it. But another incident deeply shook the Lanzhou royal palace and even the entire Lanzhou people.

The Red Black Sword Immortal, unusually, entered Bai Jin's shogunate in a high-profile manner. Legend has it that this Lanzhou patron saint sword rushed straight to Bai Jin's big tent, held the sword on the ground, bowed deeply, asked and answered three questions with Bai Jin, and finally convinced Bai Jin's patriotism and swore loyalty to the tent.

Different from the edicts of the imperial court, the Red Black Sword Immortal represents a voice and a hope of the people. In particular, the forces that have various conflicts of interest with the Lanzhou royal palace in Lanzhou have taken this opportunity to make a big splash.

Overnight, His Royal Highness Bai Jin, the third prince who has always been known for his greed in Zhongzhou, has become a virtuous king praised by the people of Lanzhou.

Such several factors couldn't help but make the local faction of Lanzhou and the Lanzhou royal palace nervous, and this tension unconsciously spread throughout Fengcang City, and continued to spread to the entire Lanzhou.

"Bastard Chiwu, he actually ran to be a curtain guest for people with such fanfare, and the Heavenly Rank Sage could actually do such a thing!" A violent voice came from the Lanzhou Palace, and it was a tall burly man who spoke, shouting and scolding, and smashed a stone table with one palm. This person is the second son of the current king of Lanzhou, and the eldest grandson is fearless.

"That Chiwu is indeed hateful, but if it weren't for Liang'er's habit of making enemies with him, he wouldn't have forced him to take refuge in Bai Jin. Fortunately, Bai Jin is also our eldest grandson's in-law. There is not necessarily room for things to turn around. A tall, thin man with long hair was expressionless and spoke plainly, but he did not hide his reproach in the slightest. This person is the third son of the eldest grandson Yuanjie, and the eldest grandson is ruthless.

Dressed in white, the eldest grandson stood respectfully to the side, letting the two uncles scold. The eldest grandson of the eldest grandson died invincible early, and the eldest grandson Yuanjie had already designated his grandson, and the eldest grandson Liang inherited the position of the head of the family in the future, and appointed him as the military governor of Lanzhou, and handed over the wind and snow flying dragon horse to him.

Since the eldest grandson Yuanjie couldn't get sick, the two uncles gradually became dissatisfied with the position of the head of the family. Relying on his identity, he has criticized Changsun Liang in public many times. The forces of all parties in Lanzhou have also spared no effort to win over, if it weren't for Bai Jin's sideways intervention, now Changsun Liang's biggest enemies in Lanzhou officialdom should be these two uncles.

"It seems that Bai Jin will not be able to drive away for a while, you and Bai Jin are both juniors, they are princes, you are at a loss in the open and in secret, we will help you get ahead in the future, alas, you are still too young, and you can't be blamed for today's situation, let Wei'er go to Zhenxueguan to help you in the future, the wind and snow flying dragon ride the kind of strong soldiers in the world, relying on you alone to lead, it is really hard. The eldest grandson said lightly, as if this arrangement was taken for granted.

Eldest Sun Ruthless seemed to have known that his brother would say this, and stared at Eldest Sun Liang vigilantly.

The eldest grandson smiled slightly, and said, "Thank you Second Uncle for your kindness, I can't ask for it." I am indeed young, and if there is something going on in Lanzhou in the future, I will naturally have to consult my two uncles more. ”

The negotiation was unusually smooth, and the eldest grandson fearless looked at the eldest grandson ruthlessly, who groaned for a while, and did not understand the reason why the eldest grandson Liang was so compromised. I can only look back at the former, and accept it if I have a good opinion.

After sending off the two uncles, Changsun Liang still maintained a deferential smile on his face, and walked straight to a room full of strange tricks in the back mountain of the mansion, and said with a smile to a table full of instruments, "What are you doing again?" ”

"Oh, how do you have time to come back?" With the sound of parts scattering, a man who looked like Changsun Liang emerged from behind the table, and although he spoke to Changsun Liang, he still didn't put down a Karakuri device in his hand.

Changsun Liang seemed to have been accustomed to this kind of treatment, and he didn't care, so he could only smile helplessly.

Seeing that Changsun Liang didn't speak, the man finally turned around, his face gradually became solemn, and he asked tentatively, "Is it so serious this time?"

Changsun Liang began to look at the room, and said flatly, "Strange, it's strange, I haven't looked carefully at your little world for so many years." I still don't understand how the trick of the mechanism has such a big attraction to you. Even willing to give up everything that belongs to you. ”

This man turned out to be the younger brother of Changsun Liang, another grandson of Changsun Yuanjie, Changsun Qi.

"Hey, I am the younger brother This matter has been settled many years ago, and it is natural for you to inherit the position of the head of the family, and it has nothing to do with me. Changsun Qi rolled his eyes and said with disdain.

Eldest Sun Liang shook his head helplessly, the smile on his face was retracted for the first time, and he said with a burst of expression: "I don't care if the two uncles covet the position of the head of the family, if they are really capable, let them sit, it is not impossible; the imperial court sent Bai Jin, I am not worried, which of the five states of the palace is not worried about the one in the Apocalypse City, each by means only; As for the Red Black Sword Immortal and my enemy, I treat it as if it were nothing! He is not the only one in the world!"

The momentum of the eldest grandson was also shocked, and the arrogance of the overlord of one party began to take shape.

"But," Changsun Liang's tone changed instantly, and he looked at Changsun Qi with some deep depth, "However, this time I have a bad premonition, and I always feel that the real threat is coming." If there is a day, I hope you can protect Lanzhou and the eldest grandson's family for me. ”

It was the first time for Changsun Qi to see Changsun Liang like this, and he knew that the matter was serious, so he was about to speak out. Changsun Liang had already turned away.

At this moment, on the roof of the organ room, there is a figure standing, even though the figure is tall and burly, but there is no trace of Qi exposed, it is clearly visible to the naked eye, but it is perfectly hidden in the exploration of countless masters. The whole person was wrapped in a black robe, looked in the direction of Changsun Liang's departure, and muttered to himself, "The burden of the Changsun family is very heavy." ”

In Zhenxue Pass, the brand-new Lanzhou left-behind camp can be described as monstrous at this time. Although the five hundred Chiyu Guards had to return to Apocalypse City after carrying out the task of sending off their relatives, Bai Jin's subordinates had newly allocated 50,000 Lanzhou troops, plus Qin Ming, the deputy governor of the Lanzhou Army who supported him, and the forces of foreign factions in the army. But in terms of military strength, Bai Jin has an army of 300,000 at the moment. It accounts for almost 30% of the entire military strength of Lanzhou.

Although there is no such powerhouse in the world as the Wind and Snow Dragoon, it is not easy to obtain such a situation in just one month.

Qi Weng walked in the camp with a solemn expression, and overnight, Bai Jin changed from a situation where he almost overturned, and gained the strength to compete with the Lanzhou Palace. This is not a good thing for people with a heart like Bai Jin. Moreover, Bai Jin's temperament has also changed a little under the urging of the Seven Desires Curse, and he has always been fierce and inward-looking, but now he is acting fiercely. didn't care about the conflict with the Lanzhou palace at all, and swaggered to settle the camp in Zhenxue Pass.

Although such a resolute performance has strengthened the confidence of many followers, it has also caused those forces that could have been hidden to jump out and express their attitude. As the saying goes, "a strong dragon does not suppress the head snake", not to mention that with such a big fanfare and the head dragon of the Lanzhou Palace, Qi Weng, who is old and serious, can't help but worry.

The only thing that reassured Qi Weng was that the Red Black Sword Immortal unexpectedly took the initiative to join Bai Jin's shogunate, and the so-called 'three questions and three answers' that day, Qi Weng was not present, and Bai Jin did not inform him afterwards. But since the Heavenly Rank Sage was willing to stand on his side, it was always a gratifying thing.

You must know that even if it is the eldest prince Bai Yi, there is no open Heavenly Rank Sage in the shogunate. As for whether there is such a cultivator hidden in the secret, Qi Weng will not tell outsiders, and if a cultivator of such strength is included in the account, if one is not good, it will even arouse the emperor's jealousy.

"I don't know, let the Third Highness sit in this Lanzhou to stay, what price did His Highness pay. A soft voice sounded from behind Qi Weng, and the charm master came to his side for some reason, and said with a coquettish smile.

Seeing that it was a charm master, Qi Weng did not shy away from it, sighed, and said, "As long as the Third Highness can become the king of Lanzhou, any price is worth it." ”

The charm master shook his head, stretched out his fingers, and a wisp of black qi surrounded his fingertips, which was communicating with the 'Seven Desires Spell' that ejaculated into Bai Jin's body that day, and said delicately, "It is to become a controllable king of Lanzhou." ”

Qi Weng was stunned for a moment, and then burst out laughing.

Not far from the two, the Red Black Sword Fairy looked at the two coldly wearing the self-gilt wide robe, and reached out to gently caress the wide robe, as if he was caressing the reunited lover. said lightly, "Qing'er, that's why I hate those in power, intrigue all day long, cannibalism." ”

When the Red Black Sword Immortal first got this robe, she knew that it was her robe, and when they met for the first time, it was she who used this robe to wrap him who was already seriously injured and dying. In the days that followed, this robe witnessed their flowers before and under the moon, and promised each other for life. Until she said goodbye, the robe was gone.

Unexpectedly, when I saw this robe again twenty-five years later, it was already different.

At this moment, a gust of wind blew, blowing the flags in the camp and hunting.

Unlike other people who would wrap their robes tightly in the wind, the Red Black Sword Immortal hurriedly took off his gilded robe and held it in his arms, as if he was afraid that the robe would catch a cold. He also muttered, "Qing'er, it's windy outside, let's go back to the tent." You wait for me for a while, and when I'm done with the things at hand, I'll go with you, and I'll be with you forever...."
