Chapter 163: The Governor
"Looks like the old man should know it's an old map."
Xuanyuan Ye's tone of voice was very gentle, but the content was subtly unkind.
Shangguan Li let out a "hmm" and simply put down the map.
"City Lord's Mansion, Da Zhou still has this official rank?"
"Nope."
Xuanyuan Ye shook his head, reached out and hooked the map, explaining as he looked at it.
"The territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty is divided into fourteen states, Jiangnan Province accounts for three, each state has a state pastor, and the one who leads the entire Jiangnan Province is the Governor of the Southwest, but everyone doesn't call it that, and it is generally called the Governor directly."
After a pause, he slid the map down a little, and Shangguan Li was listening carefully, the corners of his lips hooked, and he continued.
"Although Linyang is in Xuzhou, because it is the capital of Jiangnan Province, it is not under the jurisdiction of Xuzhou Prefecture, but directly by the governor. The so-called City Lord's Mansion is probably the governor's mansion. ”
After hearing this, Situ suddenly felt a little dizzy in his brain.
One state is so big, and if you are in charge of three states, what a big official it must be.
Although people may say that the emperor is high and powerful, and the king reigns over the world, they do not have any actual feelings about the so-called "monstrous power".
If you want to understand, you have to walk it with your own legs, and there are thousands of roads in this world, which may not end in a lifetime, when you stop and look back when you are exhausted.
found that the land that had been measured with his feet was all under the control of the emperor, and the whole world was not the king's land. At that time, it is estimated that you will be able to have a deeper understanding of the concept of emperor.
Xitu didn't think about it before, but when she walked for almost a month, she only passed through Suzhou from Zhongzhou, where the capital is located, and arrived in Xuzhou.
So she was suddenly in awe of the governor who ruled the land of the three states.
Shangguan Li let out a "hmm" and asked Xuanyuan Ye tentatively.
"You can ......"
"No, you can't."
Shangguan Li: "......"
She hadn't said what it was.
But Xuanyuan Ye had already put down the map, with a thin smile on the corner of his mouth.
"I know what you're going to say, I'm recuperating from my injuries, at this time, I expose my identity and go out to ask for this favor, Your Majesty may think of me again."
Shangguan Li said leisurely.
"But it's been a month."
Xuanyuan stared at her for a long time, as if to know if she really thought so, or if she was joking.
But Shangguan Li hid it well, he didn't see it.
After a while, he sighed.
"County Lord, if you have an extremely fearful opponent, you design to make him suffer a little injury, and then this injury will be cured for a month. He appeared alive again in the mansion of such an important minister as the governor of the three states...... What would you think? ”
Shangguan Li thought about it seriously for a moment, and then said.
"I shouldn't have such an opponent, if I am really jealous to this extent, I will definitely kill him."
"Poof."
Xuanyuan Ye didn't seem surprised by her answer, and smiled.
"It's a good idea, but unfortunately, I don't want to be a rebel yet."
Situ wanted to hide in a corner now, the topic of these two people was so scary that her fragile little heart couldn't bear it at all.
"It's that I'm thinking it's too simple."
After a moment of silence, Shangguan Li still sighed.
"The question now is how to get the Governor, whom we have never met, to give us the map."
"Isn't the prince a white master, can't you borrow it and take a look? If you can't do it, you can go in and steal it out. ”
Situ paused, then suggested.
"It's a solution, but it's that simple."
"Huh?"
"What do you mean by your fairy sister."
Xuanyuan Ye suddenly became the person who worked hard as a "translation software".
"The Governor of the Southwest may not be willing to give us the map, and it may take too long to go in and steal it."
Situ became more and more puzzled, although she felt that if she asked, it would be a bad brain, but she still couldn't stop her curiosity.
"Isn't it just a map, it's not a difficult task, and then again, we only need a topographic map to have a comparison, why do we have to use the one in the City Lord's Mansion?"
Shangguan Li's eyes widened, and he looked at Xitu as if he had seen a ghost.
"You, you can use your brain!"
Situ: "......"
"You're right."
Shangguan Li slapped the table, and the candles on it went on and off.
"So if that old man hadn't fooled your Bai Ye, there should be something special on that map, something we must have when we go to Anning Town."
Although she explained this, a little doubt still surfaced from the bottom of her heart.
Since the person who sent her the letter wanted her to go to Anning Town, why didn't he just tell her about the past methods, and let her brainstorm here?
However, this doubt was temporarily suppressed by her, she couldn't be led by the other party's nose, and the current unusualness may also be unexpected by the other party.
"Oh, it's possible!"
Situ is a person who doesn't hold grudges at all, and he was so damaged just now, and now he can echo her excitedly.
It was as if she wasn't the one who turned pale with frighten by a legend just now.
"So, are we in a hurry? Why does it take so long to steal it? ”
"Guess."
Shangguan Li threw down such a sentence without being salty.
But Xuanyuan Ye seemed to be very happy with this kind of thing, explained.
"The longer we stay here, the more likely we are to reveal our identities, and there must be someone watching us in the shadows right now."
Speaking of this, he seemed to remember something, and suddenly turned to Shangguan Li.
"Do you think those people from the Green Fox Gang will suffer?"
Shangguan Li didn't hesitate.
"No, unless you're being followed."
The place of the water mirror had been set a long time ago, and she was sure that there was no tail around when she went up, although there was some movement, but it didn't hurt.
After all, she watched the old man and the little girl sing the song not necessarily well, but her acting skills are really good.
Xuanyuan smiled and didn't say anything, his patience now was extraordinarily sufficient.
So this conspiracy came to an end, Xitu slipped away first, and Shangguan Li also wanted to get up and go back to the room, but was stopped.
"Madame, where shall I sleep tonight?"
Shangguan Li took a breath, and inexplicably heard a hint of flirtation from it.
She turned around, smiling perfectly, but she felt a chill in her heart.
"Where did the prince go last night, today is the same."
After saying that, he slammed the door shut and left.
Xuanyuan Ye stared at the tightly closed door for a while, and suddenly, the smile on his face faded like a tide, and a dark shadow suddenly appeared in the corner of the room and saluted him.
Xuanyuan Ye had no expression on his face, and his voice was as cold as ice.
"Say."
