Chapter 49: The Rain

At around 15:10 today, the resolution of the domestic generic top-level root domain name server was abnormal, and some domestic users could not access .com and other domain name websites. According to preliminary statistics, two-thirds of the country's website visits have been affected. Because of the legendary hacker, I worked hard to finally come up, maybe a change. I can't afford to hurt.

"Are you ready?" said the princess, looking at the black ashes remaining on the table, with a blank face.

"We've been waiting for a long time. ”

The elder said slowly: "The master of the grassland is a man or a woman, but it must be someone who can convince us. ”

"Both the capital and the Molun Temple want your city to be the master of the grassland, so this is the real balance. ”

......

Mu Bai stood far away on a high slope outside the earthen city, letting the fine spring rain wet his clothes.

He did not choose to return to the royal court.

When he saw the white silk hanging from a distance, he knew that the princess had taken control of the situation.

He stood here quietly looking at the earthen city at his feet, as if he could see the familiar person through the wall, he was silent for a long time, and then said softly: "Great Khan, go all the way." ”

"You can go with peace of mind, the grassland can only be surnamed Lin, and the royal court can only belong to the princess. ”

He was silent again for a long time, then turned away without looking back.

The grassland in the rain was still empty and deserted, as if nothing had happened.

This rain has been continuous, spreading throughout the grassland.

It even spread all the way to the shore of Biluo Lake.

Holding an umbrella, Akiba raised her head to look at the gray sky.

Xiao Yu stood beside him, and suddenly remembered a poem he learned when he was a child, "Happy rain knows the season, when spring happens." Dive into the night with the wind, moisturizing things silently. ”

Autumn leaves seemed to feel Xiao Yu's emotions, turned his head to look at him, and then pointed to the misty drizzle on the lake and said: "This rain is like a reincarnation, falling from the sky, steaming and rising to the sky, the cycle repeats, never stopping." ”

The thin spring rain wet the corners of his robe, and he took a few raindrops with his hand and said softly: "A predecessor surnamed Wang said that rain is born in the sky and dies on the ground, and the process of falling is life. ”

Xiao Yu was silent, looking at this slightly cool spring rain thoughtfully.

Autumn leaves said softly: "When the rain falls, life is over." ”

Xiao Yu raised his head, looked at Autumn Leaves and said, "Could this be a portend?"

Akiba said directly: "Someone died. ”

Xiao Yu was slightly startled and asked, "Who could it be?"

Akiba shook her head and said, "I don't know, but I think I'll know soon." ”

Xiao Yu was a little helpless and asked, "What should we do?"

Akiba said, "You don't need to do anything. ”

Xiao Yu was even more confused: "Do you want to wait like this?"

Akiba said, "All we have to do is wait. ”

"What are you waiting for?"

"Wait for Mubai. ”

"What if I can't wait?"

"If you can't wait, it means that something has happened to the royal court. ”

......

Dozens of messengers braved the drizzle and rushed out of the royal court, their horses' hooves flying, carrying the news of Lin Yuan's death and the new Great Khan to every corner of the steppe. ”

More than ten horsemen came from the grassland, carrying the wind and rain all the way to the front of the central capital. Having already received the order from the peak, the long-awaited soldiers of Zhongdu raised the side door and reflected the exhausted more than ten horsemen into Zhongdu.

The captain who was the leader of the more than ten horsemen turned over and dismounted and headed all the way to the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion despite the long journey of many days.

In the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, the lieutenant half-knelt on the ground, and said with a slight breath: "Metropolitan Governor, the grassland is urgent." ”

At the same time, he took out a letter sealed with fire paint from his bosom and handed it to both hands.

Xu Lin took the letter, then waved his hand back and left.

After only he and the chief staff Wei Chi were left, he slowly opened the letter, was silent for a long time, then turned around, looked at Wei Chi and said, "You expected it early?"

Wei Chi smiled faintly: "Sort of." ”

Xu Lin said: "Do you know that if you fail, there will be no bones?"

Wei Chi seemed to have known Xu Lin's reaction, and said unhurriedly: "But if it happens, it will be a wealth of the sky." ”

Xu Lin can become one of the five major governors, naturally he is not a reckless martial artist who doesn't know anything, even if he loves money, but listening to the words "wealth and wealth", he still has an incomparable expression, and he was silent for a long time again, and then said slowly: "Do you know that I don't want to wade into this troubled water?"

Wei Chi knew that Xu Lin was already very dissatisfied, but he still smiled and said, "But the Metropolitan Governor still gave me a chance to explain, which means that you feel that there is still room for reversal." ”

Xu Lin said: "But the premise is that you can give me a satisfactory enough answer." We've worked together for years, and I don't want to make each other's faces look bad. ”

Wei Chi asked: "Since this matter has already been completed, and it is beneficial and harmless to the Grand Governor, why does the Grand Governor not agree?"

Xu Lin said in a deep voice: "Because I don't believe that Lin Yuan has no backhand, a grassland king who has controlled the grassland for twenty years, can't you see through what kind of person the red lady is?"

Wei Chi said: "But now Lin Yuan is just a dead man. ”

Xu Lin's eyebrows slowly raised, and his voice was slightly cold and asked, "But Lin Yuan's old department is not dead, and they still occupy half of the grassland." ”

Wei Chi said: "Lin Yuan's last order was testified by several elders, and they could only follow the orders of the Great Khan. ”

Xu Lin sneered: "Wei Chi, I don't know if you are deceiving yourself now, regardless of whether Lin Yuan just left such a will, do you think that with this so-called testament that even an outsider can't deceive me, you can sit firmly in the grassland royal court?"

Wei Chi said, "So I hope to get the support of the Grand Governor. ”

Xu Lin said indifferently: "Favors are favors, I still say that, as long as you can come up with a reason to convince me." ”

Wei Chi was silent for a long time, and then sighed faintly: "After so many years, I think that I am the person who knows the Metropolitan Governor best, I know what the Metropolitan Governor wants, I can help the Red Lady to make the decision and meet all the requirements of the Metropolitan Governor." ”

The corners of Xu Lin's mouth hooked a smile, and said: "My request is very simple, add another thirty percent every year, and we can bypass those business groups, the red lady controls the grassland, and I control the central capital, why should we just extract a part? ”

Wei Chi nodded and said, "As the Metropolitan Governor wishes, as long as the Metropolitan Governor can hold back the few tribes near Zhongdu that are loyal to Lin Yuan, that's all." ”

......

"Twenty waves of rangers have been dispatched to summon the news, and according to the time calculation, in about ten days, the news will spread throughout the grassland, and the princess can rest assured. ”

An elder whispered.

The princess nodded expressionlessly, and then asked, "Has Lin Yinping found it?"

The elder only said three words, "Biluo Lake." ”

The princess said tiredly: "The Great Khan has passed away, the grassland is shaking, and Biluo Lake is not peaceful at this time, Yinping is a girl who has no idea, and sent a team of cavalry to pick her up and bring her back." ”

The elder nodded, turned and left, there was no pity or pity on his face, only a faint indifference.
