Chapter Seventy-Nine—Planning for the Future (Part II)
The northernmost and most remote city of the feudal kingdom is naturally the spiritual city where the extreme north is located. However, Lingcheng did not lag behind in economy, culture and even political power because of the common problems such as its high mountain and the inconvenience of material transportation. On the contrary, in addition to vigorously developing Dream City, the Monarch of the Feudal State in the recent period, anyone with a discerning eye can clearly see the intention of the Holy Emperor to send his henchmen to the Spirit City in this extreme north. At the same time, the Holy Emperor also vigorously promoted the sale of war horses with the Qi State, which benefited a lot, and even if used properly, it might be able to achieve a role that was enough to change the balance of the current feudal Qi State. For this reason, the Holy Emperor did not hesitate to invest part of the treasury resources to improve the living conditions of the people of Lingcheng and store armaments, which is enough to see how much importance the Holy Emperor attaches to Lingcheng. In the past two months, Lingcheng has now become the most prosperous and stable big city after the Imperial City of Zhongcheng and the important seaside city, which is also the place where the Holy Emperor made his fortune.
Because of the construction of Dream City, the surrounding county towns have also been supported, and because most of the people living in Lingcheng and around Lingcheng live on half of the cultivated land and half of the herding. Therefore, the biggest step of the Holy Emperor to improve the prosperity of Dream City was to open up the horse trade with the Qi Kingdom. This is also the exclusive power granted by the Holy Emperor to the current governor of Dream City, his confidant Gongsun Yu. Of course, Gongsun Yu has also relied on his shrewd and capable ability, and has begun to gradually grasp the largest part of these interests into his own hands. This kind of behavior can not only buy the hearts of ordinary people, but also obtain enough benefits through such means, which is really a profitable business.
Of course, the Holy Emperor would not send his few remaining henchmen to such a relatively remote place to serve as the governor for such a reason. Gongsun Yu also has another very important task, which is to monitor the previous monarch of the feudal kingdom, Guangwu Jun, who is still living in the spirit city. Although it is now said that Guang Wu Jun has basically lost the ability to walk, how could the Holy Emperor, as the hero of the world, not have the slightest defense against him? Therefore, Gongsun Yu has another task of his own, which is to take on the task of monitoring Guang Wu Jun.
However, even if the Holy Emperor had not given this order, Gongsun Yu himself had to send his capable subordinates to monitor Guangwu Jun in front of him. After all, after the defeat of the Battle of the Fierce Stars for a long time, there are many officials and children of the family who still have deep nostalgia for the original feudal royal family, and most of them have begun to carry out their own special restoration strategy. It is also because of such a reason that many aspiring people in the feudal country began to contact the Guangwujun case in Lingcheng privately. But Guangwujun didn't respond, just silently told them that as long as the country was stable, it didn't matter who was the monarch. As soon as these words came out, the relationship between them was basically severed, and many aspiring people who wanted to aspire to restore the country had lost confidence in this.
In fact, Guang Wujun himself knew very well that if he wanted to succeed, the most important thing he needed to deal with was the Fengzhan Society under the Holy Emperor. But how to defeat the Sealed War Society, Guang Wujun himself did not have any way to fight against the Sealed War Society when he was in power. At this time, he has no soldiers and no generals in his hands, how can he fight with the Feng Zhan Society again? Besides, in this way, Guang Wujun has no other thoughts now, and now he has become very calm and calm. He really doesn't want to pay attention to these investigations. So, for these his supporters, Guangwujun did not mean to reject them. But Guang Wujun's performance and movements have been completely told to every visitor.
Of course, it is precisely because of Guangwujun's own stern refusal that he can now continue to live here safely for the time being. Otherwise, Guang Wujun knew very well that he would be directly killed by the Holy Emperor's henchmen who were watching him. For the person who has basically become a wasted person now, the best idea is to just silently accept what is happening to him now.
Guangwu Jun Buling didn't care much about himself, and the only thing he was worried about now was his eldest daughter Princess Qingxuan Buluan and his nephew Princess Liuli Buyuehan. Now his eldest daughter doesn't know where she is, which has become the most worrying thing in Guang Wujun's heart now. Of course, for the niece who loves him the most and has been closest to him since childhood, Princess Liuli Bu Yuehan, and now she doesn't know where she is in the Qingming Mountains, Guang Wujun is also a little worried in his heart.
Facing the gentle morning sun, Guangwu Jun Buling, who was standing in an ordinary thatched house, couldn't help but paced out of the hut where he lived, raised his head and silently stared at the rising sun not far above his head, and felt a lot of emotion in his heart. Once upon a time, he was high-spirited, and when his father died of illness, he wanted to restore the glory of the feudal royal family, and worked hard to collect forces and armaments to support him, in order to fight against the original leader of the feudal war society, and now the holy emperor, he also did whatever it took to hide his strength and silently hide forbearance. has been desperately waiting for such an opportunity until death.
It's just a pity that now it's finally in such an irreparable situation. Guang Wujun couldn't help but sigh softly, he turned his back silently, and fixed his eyes to see the restaurant not far from him sitting at the window every day, almost two months of hard work sitting there quietly observing his three middle-aged men in plain robes, with a little cold light in their eyes. Guang Wujun knew very well that these three people were the henchmen of Gongsun Yu, the governor of Lingcheng, who deliberately came to spy on him. However, when his niece, that is, Princess Liuli, the daughter of the Holy Emperor and his eldest sister Princess Rongle, came here, and together with his partner, killed Gongsun Yu's guards who were monitoring him in this small courtyard, Gongsun Yu had already seen the situation. He would never offend his master's only daughter, and it was because of Jiang Yuehan's attack that Gongsun Yu did not arrange a henchman to monitor his home now, but just ordered his henchmen to charter the location closest to this house in the restaurant closest to this house, and to be able to have a bird's-eye view of this house from top to bottom, and ordered his three henchmen to monitor here.
At this time, Guangwu Jun Buling, who was standing in the middle of the dwelling, suddenly heard a knock on the door that had not been heard for a long time. Guang Wujun himself only remembered that after he refused to visit his last person, no one had come here to look for him for nearly a month now, whether it was sneaking or Zhengdaguang coming to look for him. Like the knock on the door that can be heard now, Guangwu Jun Buling doesn't know how many times he hasn't heard it.
Guangwu Jun Buling slowly opened the wooden door of the house where he lived as usual when he received guests who came to visit him, but this time, he saw a figure he was extremely familiar with, and he had already jumped into his arms. After Guangwu Jun Buling fully reacted, he immediately shouted in surprise: "Yuehan, why did you come back, have you already conquered the test in the Qingming Mountain Range?"
At this moment, the person who threw himself into the arms of Guangwu Jun Buling was none other than Jiang Yuehan, who had to give up the journey of the Qingming Mountains when he encountered the seal of the Wu clan of Guili Peak when he conquered the Qingming Mountains earlier. Seeing his relatives who he hadn't seen for many days, Jiang Yuehan also couldn't control the atmospheric and calm attitude that he had developed as a royal daughter through court life. returned to the original little daughter's heart that could only be revealed in front of her dearest and beloved uncle.
Jiang Yuehan, who fell into his uncle's arms, raised his head to look at his uncle who was becoming thinner and older, Jiang Yuehan couldn't help but whisper and blame: "Uncle, didn't I say that since you have rejected the method proposed by me and you last time, then I don't have any other meaning for this, but now at this time, he has decided to give you an ordinary life, and guarantees that it will not endanger your life, so how can you not be happy with yourself, uncle?" Could it be that some of the visitors who came to visit you some time ago said something wrong to you?"
Although Guangwu Jun Buling can well hide the expressions and inner thoughts on his face in the eyes of outsiders. But in front of his niece, who is most familiar with him and knows him best, Guang Wujun really can't hide his inner thoughts. Guang Wujun even had a feeling that his niece knew her better than her mother, that is, her eldest sister Princess Rongle. So, Guang Wujun looked at his niece's clear and fair skin, but revealed an aggressive face, Guang Wujun couldn't help but let out a long sigh, and slowly explained to his niece: "To tell you the truth, Yue Han, I am worried about the safety of those who speak for me in front of your father." As for myself, I don't really care, the only thing I care about now is you and Luan'er, and I look like this now, and I don't know where Luan'er is, where she is going, and I don't even know what Luan'er's condition is now, Han'er" Guangwujun suddenly picked up Jiang Yuehan in his arms, knelt down on his knees, and said in a choked voice, "Yuehan, uncle wants to ask you no matter what, please be sure to find Luan'er, and try your best to find a way to cure her current condition for me, uncle, please ask you" After speaking, he was about to knock his head to the soles of Jiang Yuehan's feet.
