CHAPTER XXVII

At the same time, Qiluan stood alone in the main hall and was silent.

The light shone from his side, outlining a long silhouette on the ground.

The owner of the silhouette has a shawl with black hair, his hands behind his back, his jaw is curved, and the whole person is like a straight blade, although it is motionless, it exudes a chilling cold light.

"Your Majesty."

The sound echoed through the empty hall.

Qiluan turned his head sideways when he heard the sound, and saw Xun Qing who was half-kneeling on the ground, his eyes were bottomless, and he said in a deep voice: "There are clues about the things that made you investigate a few days ago?" The voice was low, like a morning bell, as if it could hit people's hearts and make people shake all over.

Xun Qing got up, stepped forward and handed Qiluan a secret letter sealed with wax oil, always bowed his head respectfully, and replied: "Back to Your Majesty, my subordinates have received definite news, the battle of Licheng a few days ago was personally commanded by the Shadow of the Moon Prince. According to the remnants of the Licheng faction, who knew the inside story, the participants of the Licheng faction were all the troops of nine of the twelve rudders, totaling 5,942 people. Except for the 220 survivors who were captured, everyone, including the eldest son of the leader of the Licheng faction, were all killed. ”

Qi Luan looked at the data on the letter, and when he heard this, his heroic and good-looking eyebrows frowned, his eyes were difficult to distinguish, and he muttered for a long time: "In other words, the deep-rooted Licheng faction that has been entrenched in Licheng for nearly two hundred years has been wiped out?" ”

Xun Qing also frowned slightly, and said slowly: "Not only that, there is unconfirmed news to say...... At that time, there were only about 600 people under the son of Suzuki. ”

Qiluan put the letter on the table beside him and stood with his hands in his hands, bowing his head slightly, like a sculpture.

He didn't speak, Xun Qing didn't dare to make a sound, the whole hall was silent, and the needle drop could be heard.

The atmosphere in the hall seemed to freeze, and even the light projected in seemed to be slightly distorted.

After a moment, he muttered, "...... Is there a tenfold difference in troops......"

"Exactly." Xun Qing breathed a sigh of relief slightly, "My subordinates feel that this is the real terrible part." ”

Qiluan turned around, still frowning, with a hint of anger between his eyebrows: "Have you found out who the young man is in the moon?" ”

Xun Qing looked embarrassed, shook his head, and then said, "Your Majesty, my subordinates also found an equally unbelievable data. ”

Qiluan raised his chin and motioned for him to continue.

"As of the end of last month, nearly one-fifth of the shops in Asaka City were operated by shadow people. In other words, one out of every five shops in Chaoge is the property of the son of Suyue. ”

Xun Qing understands that this number is far more of a headache than the previous one, although the spiritual policy emphasizes agriculture and suppresses business, but in fact, it is as big as the royal family's daily life, as small as the people's work and rest, and none of it has nothing to do with business. Mastering the lifeblood of commerce is essentially mastering the rise and fall of empires. And the current person who is manipulating behind the scenes, they still don't know anything about it, how can it not make people anxious and depressed.

Qi Luan sighed lightly, and actually smiled slightly, his eyes flashed with a jasper-like shimmer, although he was smiling, Xun Qing felt frightened.

Qiluan said lightly: "I really don't know where this Shuyue Gongzi is, and he can actually make a small organization that has only been established for a few decades to this point, it is indeed not a thing in the pool." ”

After a pause, Qiluan continued: "Xun Qing, you say, can this kind of person be used by me?" ”

Xun Qing has actually thought about this question for a long time, but the answer is also obvious.

Xun Qing smiled bitterly, and said cautiously: "My subordinates think that this person can do this, which shows that his ambition is not small, but I am afraid that it is ......" The voice gradually lowered.

Qiluan turned his back and was silent for a long time, and finally squinted his eyes and said unhurriedly: "If it can be used by me, it will naturally be great; If it backfires, you can't annoy him, and with the chips in his hand now, you can only take your time......"

Xun Qing raised his head and said tentatively: "Your Majesty has no intention of keeping him?" ”

Qi Luan smiled, his eyes were like a blade, and the domineering sword light shocked the world as soon as it came out of the sheath, and said coolly: "I'm afraid that even if I have the intention to keep him, I can't keep him." If such a person can't serve me, sooner or later he will be left behind. ”

Xun Qing nodded thoughtfully.

"Xun Qing, you go and verify the identity of this young man in detail. Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one not be defeated. Qiluan waved his hand, "Go down." ”

Xun Qing answered, turned around and left.
