There were two catastrophes in a row, and countless people died.

The city is ruined and depressed for sure.

Although Han Shao had never seen the corpses of the people higher than the city wall, he had seen the Zhenliao army and hundreds of thousands of barbarian armies fight fiercely here.

Now that more than half a month has passed, Han Shaoze's horse is walking in it, and he can vaguely smell the residual blood in the air.

It's just that it's not a dead city.

The reaction of those big clans and sects was unexpectedly fast.

With the end of the war, the Zhenliao army retreated.

They flocked back to the now renamed City of Champions.

There is no other reason.

Located at the forefront of the Dayong and Karasuma Divisions, it is not only strategically important, but also an important place for trade between the two sides.

Even if you just transfer the goods every year, it can bring a lot of money.

Such a huge benefit, no one will be willing to give up.

They were reluctant, and Han Shao was naturally reluctant.

Looking at the men and servants who were busy in the shops on both sides of the long street, Han Shao smiled.

Didn't say much.

It's just that his smile made some hidden existences in the city unconsciously feel a little creepy.

"What is he laughing at?"

Hearing this, the person next to him laughed.

"Who knows?"

"But...... This young man is a marquis, and it is normal to love to laugh when he is complacent. ”

Rao is today's Dayongri Thin West Mountain, but if he can get the position of a virtual lord, he can still make people feel more honored.

Not to mention this Marquis of Che who is under the kings of the Ji clan.

The person who spoke before heard this, thought about it and nodded.

"Yes, it's really enviable."

After speaking, he continued to look down at the long street.

And there are actually quite a few people who act like him.

The wine shops are quite far away, but the location is perfect.

The journey from the city gate to the long street can be described as a panoramic view.

Seeing that the champion Hou entered the city, he actually abandoned the guard of honor of Che Hou, and chose to personally lead the army into the city.

Someone smiled and sighed.

"Tsk, our champion Hou is really the same as rumored, sharp and determined to soar into the sky!"

After saying this, he didn't wait for the people around him to respond.

The tall figure of the xenomorph dragon foal with its crotch seemed to sense something, and turned its head to look at it.

From the direction of the long street to the windowsill of this liquor store, it may be just a faint dot.

But for the monks, it's just a look at the pattern in the palm of your hand.

Facing the smiling expression in the distance, everyone in the wine shop looked stunned.

Then he gave his hand and gave up the courtesy.

didn't expect the other party to just retract his gaze as if he didn't see it.

This act of ignoring them suddenly made everyone in the wine shop feel a little annoyed.

Don't look at the monk's face, look at the Buddha's face!

Although their cultivation is inferior to each other, their status is inferior to each other.

But behind them there are families and sects!

To ignore them is to ignore the family and sect behind them.

If you really wipe out the Beigu Sect and a few small families who can't be on the stage, you can cover the sky with one hand and no one in your eyes?

If it weren't for the fact that Beiguzong was too stupid and greedy, he offended the entire Youzhou clan.

He thought he could level Beigu Mountain so easily?

Naive!

He cursed in his heart.

Someone snorted coldly.

"I'm afraid it's not good!"

It's just that when he said this, others laughed.

"Who's coming? No, now this champion city is a fiefdom of others, and if you really want to talk about it, we are the ones who come. ”

The man said a joke that was not a joke, but everyone around him laughed.

"Yes, it stands to reason that we are the ones who came."

But so what?

Did he really think that with the help of the old emperor's oracle in the Divine Capital, he would be able to rule a place?

If this is the case, how could a group of poor officials promoted by the old emperor die one after another?

Although with the cultivation of this new champion Hou and the support of the Liaodong Gongsun behind him, they could not easily move him.

But nothing is absolute.

If this guy really doesn't know how to lift, relying on these wanton behaviors, they have to do it.

They really don't mind, pay some price, give him decency.

One word.

This secluded north does not allow such awesome people to exist!

With such a sneer, everyone gathered in this wine shop didn't bother to look at the guy surnamed Han anymore.

Angrily, he flicked his sleeves and returned to the wine shop from the windowsill.

After all, they got together, except to see what kind of person this future owner of Champion City really was.

The main thing is that there is something to discuss.

The city under their feet now suffered heavy losses after the bloody sacking of Karasumabu.

It has almost been reduced to an empty city.

But the shops in the city, those dog barbarians can't take them.

In addition to those owned by these forces themselves, there were many who originally belonged to small families and some merchants.

Now those people from small families and ordinary businessmen have all died.

How could they let go of such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?

It's just that in the beginning, only a few are doing it, and they can still maintain the surface peace.

But with joining this gluttonous feast of carving up the 'heritage', contradictions and conflicts will naturally arise.

Profit comes first!

Who would take a step back?

It's just that seeing that the conflict has become more and more intense recently, the principals of their respective forces in the city finally can't sit still.

That's why we have today's gathering.

The goal is how to completely divide the city on the premise of reducing disputes between them.

It's just that the wishes are good.

The reality is unpleasant.

Not long after everyone was seated, there was a fierce quarrel in the originally harmonious wine shop.

Someone slapped the case and said angrily.

"Your Liu family's appearance is too ugly! The three shops in the gold and silver square in the west of the city, my Chen family has already occupied them! Why do you say you want it! ”

The head of the Liu family in the city was-for-tat and sneered.

"My Liu family didn't ask for you for nothing, didn't you also exchange the three shops in Hongye Fang in the south of the city with you?"

Seongnam?

Many cities in Dayong are mostly rich in the east and rich in the west, poor in the south and cheap in the north.

This Liu family took the shops in the south of the city, and wanted to change them to the east of the city.

It's just too deceitful.

Such an almost humiliating transaction, if he could agree to it, not to mention that the position of the principal is unstable.

When he returned to the family, he would also be skinned by the middle and high-level of the clan.

Save yourself from continuing to be embarrassed.

So without any hesitation, he said angrily.

"I want those three shops to have no doors, so I'll grab them myself!"

Regarding the anger of the head of the Liu family, the head of the Chen family knows it well.

It's just that he can't help it.

At this feast, their Chen family's reaction was a beat slower after all.

Most of the good positions were grabbed in advance.

What was left to their Chen family was only the three melons and two dates in the horns.

With the size of their Chen family, I'm afraid they won't even be able to plug their teeth.

If you want a good one, you can only grab it.

Eating Phase?

Isn't that something that can only be considered if there is food in the stomach?

How many beggars have you ever seen, and have you paid attention to their appearance?

Of course, the beggar is thin and weak, has no strength in his hands, and deserves to starve to death!

But their Chen family is different.

The families and sects present, their Chen family is in the upper class.

In this case, if you can still go hungry.

That's his incompetence!

The clan will not let go of themselves either.

So he can't go back.

Glancing at the head of the Liu family with some pity, he simply got up and said.

"In that case, let's do our best."

Hum!

Shame on the face!

Then he flicked the sleeves of his robe, left everyone and turned away.

The head of the Liu family was stung by the other party's pity and disdain, and his temper has always been hot, and he lifted the table.

"Since you're going to do one, let's talk about a few hairs!"

It's just that the movement of the two of them leaving one after another did not affect the other people in this wine shop.

Because they are also fighting with each other at this time, how can they care about the rights and wrongs of others?

They didn't even notice that the guy who came to bring them food and drinks had a strange look in his eyes.

"This is the so-called Great Clan and the Famous Sect?"

I don't know why, looking at these big people in front of me who are fighting for the ownership of the shops, wine shops, and tea shops in the city.

The guy suddenly thought of the vultures on the prairie.

They are scavengers, and they always like to lie down on the carcasses of other animals and feast on them.

while biting and fighting each other.

'Oh, how similar is it?' ’

……

Riding a horse into the city is more of a mental satisfaction.

It doesn't make much practical sense.

There were no people in the city.

After leaving all the temporary subordinates behind, there was no welcome in the middle of the road.

It's just that Han Shao didn't care.

Although Zhenliao City is majestic and mighty.

But it always gives him a feeling of being under the fence.

City of Champions is different.

Because it was the first city that belonged to him in the true sense of the word.

This kind of mentality is too high for birds to fly and indulge indestructible.

But it should probably be the same as Zhu Yuanzhang when he left his father-in-law Guo Zixing and took Chuzhou.

It's just that in comparison, he Han is a lot easier in the process.

This made Han Shao inevitably feel a little less accomplished.

But then he laughed and muttered to himself.

It's hypocritical. ’

Ride along the long street.

The county office, located in the middle of the city, soon appeared in front of you.

It is different from the shabby and cramped county government in the south.

Many county offices in border areas are very magnificent.

First, the whip of the court can't control it.

Second, you can take the opportunity to declare the majesty of Dayong.

After the previous war, Han Shao had lived in it for a few days, so he was not a stranger.

Taking advantage of Lu Yan and a group of soldiers, he entered the back office to investigate hidden dangers.

Only then did Han Shao get out of the black horse, turned around and led Yu Xuanji down from the carriage.

The natural and charming jade face misses the light of the sky.

Many soldiers who caught a glimpse of this scene even felt that the gradually dimming sky was much brighter.

It's just that they didn't dare to look more, so they hurriedly staggered their gazes.

Yu Xuanji, who was aware of the strange appearance of the soldiers, surrounded the jade rabbit in his arms a little uncomfortably, and whispered to Han Shao.

"In the future, when the concubine goes out, cover her face, so as not to lose the dignity of Langjun."

Han Shao smiled when he heard this.

"No, just do what you want."

Although it is too outstanding beauty, it has always been a source of trouble.

But if he doesn't even have the confidence to protect his woman, then what else is there to dream of swallowing a whale with a snake.

Wipe your neck as soon as possible.

However, after glancing at Yu Xuanji's face, Han Shao also had to admit it.

Judging from her face alone, this woman did not have the life to be a big woman.

In the words of the world over there, it is born with a small ...... What a face.

It's so flattering.

Before, his eyes were empty in the secret realm, and he couldn't show it.

When I got out of the secret realm, there was light in my eyes and I was nourished.

It's like a jewel that has broken a seal.

Even the faint smile that blooms by chance is eye-catching.

Just like at this time.

After hearing Han Shao's words, Yu Xuanji smiled lightly at the corner of her mouth.

It seems that the mood is very happy.

The secret realm has been lonely for many years, and she seems to like this feeling of being pampered more and more.

This is different from Senior Brother Ding's kindness to her at the beginning.

But what is different, she can't say.

I only knew that when facing Senior Brother Ding's kindness to herself, she was only grateful and moved in her heart.

But in front of Lang Jun, even if it was just a short soft word, she also had a feeling as if she had been melted.

It's amazing.

Yu Xuanji raised her eyes to look at Han Shao, her eyebrows smiling.

It seems that he will forever imprint him in his eyes and in the depths of his heart.

But then she sensed that someone seemed to be watching her behind her.

He looked back with some disgust.

It's just that when he saw Senior Brother Ding's familiar face, he hurriedly showed an apologetic chuckle.

Ding Sheng, who was burned by this chuckle, lowered his eyes in a panic as he did on Beigu Mountain many years ago.

"Senior Brother Ding."

Hearing Yu Xuanji's greeting, Ding Sheng's brain buzzed, and he hurriedly responded.

"I ...... I'm here. ”

But at this time, a person next to him reminded him.

"Mrs. Yu should be called a subordinate official and a lowly position in person."

But Yu Xuanji didn't care about this.

After all, Senior Brother Ding represents one of the few good memories she has had in the past so many years.

So when she saw Ding Sheng's helpless look, Yu Xuanji smiled.

"Senior Brother Ding is like Xuanji's brother, in front of Xuanji, there is no need to be polite."

As he spoke, he saw that Ding Sheng had already put on the county lieutenant's uniform.

first glanced at Han Shao gratefully, and then encouraged Ding Sheng.

"Beiguzong has become a thing of the past, look forward to everything, do things for Lang Jun in the future, Lang Jun will not treat you badly."

Brother, the past, looking forward......

Three key words fell into the ear.

Ding Sheng in the past may not understand.

Or maybe if you understand, you will lie to yourself that you don't understand.

But now he really understands.

Although my heart was sour, I still bowed down to respond.

"Xia Guan understands."

"In the future, I will definitely serve Hou Ye well and not let Xuan ...... Don't let Hou Ye and Mrs. Yu down. ”

Hearing this, Yu Xuanji immediately knew that Senior Brother Ding really understood.

I finally put my mind at ease.

She was afraid that Senior Brother Ding would not be able to let go of that little obsession with herself.

Mistaken for the rest of his life.

She is also afraid that her husband will misunderstand something, so she will have a problem with herself in her heart and alienate herself.

Such selfish thoughts were born, and Yu Xuanji was a little ashamed.

Obviously he is so good to himself......

'Hey, there is no chance in this life, if there is a future life......'

Yu Xuanji sighed in her heart, looked at Lang Jun beside her, and then glanced at Senior Brother Ding.

'If there is an afterlife, let Senior Brother Ding be Xuanji's own brother! ’

After the thought suddenly turned, Yu Xuanji's soft hand, which was originally in Han Shao's hand, clenched it for a few points.

She coveted the burning heat of her palm.

I just think about this life and this life, and cherish the great fate of meeting in that secret realm.

And then life after life, never letting go.

It wasn't until a moment later that Lu Yan, who had inspected the rear office and found no problems, turned back again.

"Master Hou, let's enter the mansion."

Han Shao nodded.

"Let's go inside."

Yu Xuanji obediently followed.

The lotus step moved lightly, slightly half a step behind his own Langjun.

Along the road formed by the armor soldiers on both sides, step into the back office.

Ding Sheng's eyes looked at the back of a woman who had begun to take on a bit of nobility.

I only feel that the figure of the former delicate girl in my memory is getting farther and farther away from me, farther and farther away.

It's so far away that it's as if they belong to two worlds.
