"The little brother really doesn't know that the owner of this pawn shop, the rich man Wang, is a native of Wangjia Village. Originally, the official was going to punish him severely, but soon I found out that there was someone behind him, so I ......"

Speaking of this, Chen Shimei's face was a little gloomy.

Chen Xuan quickly guessed the ** score and said, "Yuwen family?"

"That's right, the Yuwen family. Alas, if it weren't for such a behemoth, he would have been brought to justice long ago. ”

"Then since this is the case, what does Lord Chen mean?!" Chen Xuan felt completely confused and asked.

Chen Shimei glanced at Chen Zhong, then sighed and said: "It's not that there is no way, it's just that this matter involves a high degree of state secret, I want to ask this brother to leave for a while, so as not to be clear about what happens when he gets it." ”

"Ah, okay then, Master Chen, I'll go out now, just enough for me to ......"

Chen Zhong glanced at Chen Xuan, smiled and went out.

Looking at Chen Zhong's distant back, Chen Xuan felt a little uncomfortable.

Because it was the first time he had met this Lord Chen Shimei, although he had a good impression of the furnishings in his house and him, he didn't know what kind of person he was.

It is said that the two county lord sisters have become good friends who have nothing to say and nothing to say.

But before they left here, how could they never mention such a person, and besides, they were still here?!

Chen Xuan felt puzzled, but he didn't get the gist and couldn't ask directly, so he simply listened to what this Chen Shimei wanted to say.

"Big brother, are you still suspicious of my identity?!"

Chen Shimei saw that Chen Xuan's expression was a little strange, so she simply opened the window and said something.

Chen Xuan smiled indifferently, and said unknowingly: "It's only been less than half a year since Lord Chen came here, but there is one thing I don't understand. ”

"Please ......"

"Our group rushed to the town from the shore of Zehu Lake a few days ago, didn't the prefect know?!"

Chen Shimei smiled, nodded, and said, "Don't I know that the county lord is my life-saving benefactor after such a big movement...... Of course, I am very concerned about her every move. ”

"You don't seem to have been to the county lord a few days ago?!"

"I don't want to, but you know that there are a lot of eyes and ears of those big families in this place, especially in a place like ours, in a key position like the administration, they have even more eyes and ears. The main reason why I have brought you to my home today is to avoid those eyes and ears. To be honest, I don't know who is their eyes and ears and who is my own. So everyone but my own family has to avoid them and talk to you. ”

Hearing him say this, Chen Xuan was immediately relieved, and said with some embarrassment: "I'm really very embarrassed, Lord Prefect, it seems that I am too careful." ”

"It's okay, it's good to keep an eye on it, which shows that the county lord didn't look away. ”

"Then please tell me your method as soon as possible, I'm already impatient. ”

Chen Shimei nodded and said with a smile: "That rich man, his hometown is from Wangjia Village. The forces behind him are very powerful, but I don't care about the forces behind him for the time being. I know that I care about his hometown, Wangjia Village...... Do you know what kind of place this Wangjia Village is?!"

Chen Xuan thought for a while and said: "I have been to this place, of course I know a little, if I am not wrong, it is a place where the dragon and the tiger are hidden......"

"What a place where the dragon is hidden, that's right, this is the place where the dragon is hidden, as far as I know, this is the dragon vein of the royal family of the Great Chu Empire. ”

"I've heard Mr. Chen say that. ”

"You mean Mr. Chen from Xunyang Academy?!"

"That's right, it's him, did you two have a friendship?!"

"Of course, this Mr. Chen is a rare talent in our Great Chu Empire, and I knew his name when I first came here, so we have dated a few times. ”

"Oh, then I see. ”

"The thief who is currently being searched for in the whole city, he should want to carry out a very important task in Wangjia Village. ”

"Since this pawn shop is their stronghold, have you found any important clues, is it just the clues of the thief?!"

"Indeed, when we arrived at the pawn shop, we found some of their rebellious documents, but most of them were burned. ”

"Is this matter only related to the Yuwen family?!"

"So far, the situation I have is related to the Yuwen family, and the other major families have not yet figured it out. ”

"I really want to go to Wangjia Village with my brother, but because you are conducting a city-wide search, I am afraid I will not be able to leave today. ”

Chen Shimei smiled and said, "Big brother, don't worry, the decision is still in my hands, I mean the whole city is searched, not that you can't go out of the city." Just like you, I can allow you to go to Wangjia Village, but you have to do what I ask. ”

"That's the best, please let the prefect know. ”

"Okay, Brother Chen is really a cheerful person. That's the case, you still take the people just now, hurry to Wangjia Village, find Yuwen Li'er, and then take him back to the city. ”

As soon as he thought that Yuwen Li'er's cultivation was above him, Chen Xuan felt a little uncomfortable, in case he was released from it and then fought with himself, he would definitely not be his opponent, wouldn't it be terrible?!

"Brother Chen, don't worry, I have a panacea here, you just need to feed him one, and you will have to sleep for three days and three nights before you wake up. ”

Chen Shimei smiled, took out a pill from his coat pocket, and handed it to Chen Xuan.

Chen Xuan took it and took a look, only to see that this pill was completely black, this kind of black and swarthy feeling, let it be placed in the sun, it was good, there was no trace of disobedience.

At first glance, it is the superior work of alchemists.

He remembered the fragment of alchemy that Chen Jiageng gave him, and thought to himself that if he could one day practice the most powerful elixir in the world, wouldn't he be able to achieve immortality?!

The pursuit of immortality is the goal pursued by all alchemists throughout the ages, but it is a pity that so far, no one has been able to achieve it, so they have to retreat to the next best thing, that is, to pursue physical fitness, cure diseases and save people.

"Thank you, Lord Prefect, are we going to leave now?!"

"Not now, it's still daytime, and if I let you out of the city, I'm afraid there will be a lot of eyes and ears who know what you're doing. ”

"Then it's not too late to wait until dark to get out of the city......" Chen Xuan quickly understood what he meant, and echoed casually.

"That's for sure, but you can't go through the gates. ”

"We can't go through the city gates, so where are we going, can't we fly over?!"

Chen Shimei smiled and said, "That's not enough, I can arrange a boat to just send you out of the city......"

Chen Xuan quickly understood what Chen Shimei meant, this Xunyang City has actually been a water city since ancient times, with a straight waterway that surrounds it, and grain ships from the south to the north can enter and exit the city through this waterway.

"Then won't we have to walk on two legs when we get out of town?!"

Chen Shimei said: "There is no way, you can only walk to get there, but I believe that you should have a way." ”

Chen Xuan's face showed a look of embarrassment, but the matter has come to this point, it is much better than being locked up in the city and unable to get out, because in addition to what Chen Shimei told her to do, he actually has a lot to understand, and this Wangjia Village currently has a lot of doubts in his mind.

Since everyone is exploring these doubts and finding out the truth for the common goal, then don't care too much about your own gains and losses.

"Then please rest assured, I will definitely deliver that thief to you completely......"

"You can't say that, big brother, Yuwen Li'er, we still can't call him a thief at the moment. ”

"Isn't he part of their family?!"

"It's not, this is our strategy, we actually have to pay attention to dividing them now, don't let them form a monolith, so we won't be able to deal with it, of course, you may not be able to understand these words for a while now, I will tell you slowly in the future." ”

"Well, I'd like to go back and get ready now. ”

"Big brother, please stay, you stay here with me for a while, stay until dark, you can't go out anywhere at the moment, it's already full of their people outside, and they will know your every move. Besides, I have other important things to talk to you about. Maybe the two of us will see each other less often in the future, and even when we do, we will pretend that we don't know each other. Chen Shimei said.

"The prefect doesn't know, there is a female initiate in our group just now......" Chen Xuan thought of Deng Qianyue and said with some embarrassment.

"You mean the girl who was with you just now, I know that girl, and she is also from Wangjia Village. ”

Chen Xuan was taken aback and asked, "How did the prefect know?!"

Chen Shimei smiled slightly, tugged at her messy beard, and said, "Of course I know that the whole village is just a family with such a foreign surname...... If I don't know this, why don't I just go back and sell sweet potatoes? ”

"It seems that the prefect is really discerning, and he knows the details of your people very clearly, and he really admires and admires it. Chen Xuan said with a smile.

"Don't worry, big brother, I will definitely bring her back before dark, I have already called someone to look for her. ”

Hearing him say this, Chen Xuan finally let go of his heart a little, and then just listened, Chen Shimei continued: "About the county lord sisters, I think you should also know. Especially our county lord, she is in crisis at the moment. That damn God-Emperor was eager to send her abroad immediately, so that would give him one less obstacle in his final path to the Dragon Chair. ”

"What does the prefect mean?!"

"There are some things I can't say in public just now. Now I can tell you. The county lord hopes that you will go to the capital as soon as you complete my mission,"

"You hope I will go to the capital immediately?!"

Hearing his words, Chen Xuan felt puzzled, if he wanted to go to the capital immediately, Ji Ruohua should have explained this situation to himself a few days ago.

Could it be that there is something wrong with the love letter written by the current Emperor of Great Chu?!

Chen Xuan felt a little upset, her face suddenly turned red, and her mouth opened, but she still held back.

"Big brother, don't worry, the reason why the county lord wants you to go to the capital is because he is currently in trouble over there and needs someone to help him...... I mean, she didn't want to be sent abroad right away...... Come to think of it, there is no helper I can, and you are the only one who can help her at the moment......"

"I can afford to look up to the villain, but in my current situation, I think adults should also know that they are cultivating in the Xunyang Martial Academy, and before they open up all the martial arts, I am afraid that they will not be able to get out of the rivers and lakes. ”

"Your cultivation is quite high, I have also heard that it is a ...... of the ninth stage of the mortal birth realm."

"My lord smiled, what is this cultivation, I'm afraid that when I get to the top of the court, if there is a conflict with the God Emperor, don't I even have the qualifications to be cannon fodder?!"

When the word cannon fodder was mentioned, Chen Shimei was immediately amused, and the two immediately laughed back and forth.

"Cannon fodder, it seems that the big brother is really too modest, I think if the big brother is really cannon fodder, then your kind of cannon fodder is unprecedented and unprecedented, and it will definitely impress the people of today's world. ”

"I'm still worried that I'm not qualified to ......"

Chen Shimei shook his head and said, "Don't worry, the county lord knows that you are cultivating here, and after you arrive in the capital, you can still continue to cultivate, that is, in the first martial academy of the Great Chu Empire, the Heavenly Kingdom Martial Academy......"

"Heavenly Martial Academy?!"

Chen Xuan's mouth was full of words, this was the first time he had heard that there was such a martial academy in the Great Chu Empire.

"That's right, this is it, in this place, not only our Great Chu Empire, but also hundreds of thousands of martial cultivators from the other four surrounding empires are all here to learn their skills...... So this place should be the best place for you. And when you get there, you have the best master in the world with you, are you still worried that your cultivation will not be improved in time?!"

As soon as she heard about the best master in the world, Chen Shimei's words immediately touched Chen Xuan's heart.

"I agree with that, but I have two brothers, and they should be able to follow me to that place, right?!"

"I can think about this, but Lord Commander said that as long as you go there alone. If you don't want to be a big brother, you might as well go alone first, and then it's not too late to take your two brothers after you settle down there. ”

Seeing that Chen Shimei's expression and tone were very resolute, Chen Xuan couldn't say anything more.

Because in this way, it will make the county lord feel very embarrassed, and above the court, his goal will be too big, and it will attract the attention of the God Emperor.

It's just that I don't know in what capacity I am going to the capital to assist the county lord......

"Then let's do what the prefect wants, but I still have some doubts, in what capacity am I next to the county lord?!"

Chen Shimei laughed and said: "If you want not to be eye-catching, I think it's best for the big brother to go to ...... as a eunuch."

"What are you talking about?, you want me to be a eunuch?!"

Chen Xuan was shocked, he felt that Chen Shimei's idea was something he could never accept, because although he was only fifteen or sixteen years old now, he would always have a family and children one day.

If you really remove your life, then I'm afraid there will be no way to have children in this life, isn't this very right? !

"Hahaha, it seems that our eldest brother misunderstood what I meant, I mean that you are going as a eunuch, not that you must be a eunuch yourself. ”

"Then my understanding is that I don't really castrate, I'm just a fake?!"

"That's exactly what I mean......

Hearing Chen Shimei say this, Chen Xuan suddenly felt greatly relieved.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "My lord should finish the whole thing, it makes me nervous for a while." ”

"Didn't I tell you everything?! In the future, when you arrive in the capital, I am afraid that you will encounter more dangers than in the local area, and your life may be in danger at any time. Let's just say that after arriving in the capital, the people you can trust, except for the county lord sisters, and then the puppet emperor. And you can't believe the puppet emperor's words, if you can believe them all, then he won't be a puppet emperor. ”

Chen Shimei's words made Chen Xuan's heart heavy again, he thought for a while, and then asked: "Then according to the meaning of the prefect, since I have become a fake eunuch, after going to the capital, the main thing is to accept the dispatch of the county lord?!"

"That's pretty much what it means, at present in the capital, the puppet emperor and the monarch sisters are almost alone, and around them, all of them are the eyes and ears of the big families and the god emperor, so you must be cautious, one wrong step, then it will be full of ......"

Before Chen Xuan could finish speaking, he hurriedly interrupted: "My lord, don't say it anymore, although I am still young, I still know a little bit about this kind of stake. ”

Chen Shimei nodded with satisfaction and said, "Let's stay here for a while, wait for dinner in two hours, and wait until the rooster crows three times after dark, and then I'll send you out of the city." ”

"Then that's all it takes, everything is up to the prefect's arrangement. Chen Xuan stood up and said to him respectfully.

Chen Shimei turned his beard with a smile and hurriedly helped him up, "It seems that you are really a malleable material, our county lord is really discerning, our Great Chu Empire is saved." ”

"I didn't think about it so much, the so-called rise and fall of the world, the husband is responsible, and I, a nobody, still know a little. ”

"You're really too modest, too modest is pride......"

Just when the two of them were sympathizing with each other, a guard hurriedly broke in and said to Chen Shimei: "Lord Prefect, there is a person outside who asks to see ......."
