Text Chapter 494 News of the First Moon in the West
Since the matter could not be decided for the time being, everyone had to disperse.
When sending everyone out, Guan Xinghe complained: "Didn't you say that you had already made up your mind at that time? Why has it changed again today?"
"What did I make up my mind about?" Shen Feng was a little confused.
Guan Xinghe looked at Shen Feng resentfully, "Actually, the risk is not that big, just like you, even if the capital is investigated, with your skills, not to mention that they don't dare to act rashly, even if they really do it, you just leave, who can help you? And if they compromise once, then you will get a city for nothing! And judging from the current situation of the empire, the capital has no ability to take care of this matter at all!"
Speaking of this, Guan Xinghe pulled Shen Feng's clothes, then leaned over and said in a low voice: "Now it's not only the Cloudless Country that is making a move against the Empire, but also the countries next to it are also ready to move, once the Empire is fully attacked, you can be completely independent on your own." With your talent and your means, if you run it right, what will it be? Small is king, big is king, you know?"
Shen Feng was shocked by Guan Xinghe's statement, he never thought that he could still operate like this. I couldn't help asking, "Is this something you have thought about a long time ago?"
Guan Xinghe looked around, and when he found that no one was paying attention, he said in a low voice: "This is the plan of Shentu Yuanwu many years ago, so this is also the reason why there has never been a eunuch in the city, and now that he is dead, everyone must find a cow man who can follow, and you are the best candidate for everyone." After Guan Xinghe finished speaking, he looked at Shen Feng meaningfully, and then arched his hand, "The empire is restless, think about it!"
After saying that, he walked out of the courtyard without looking back.
Looking at Guan Xinghe's departing back, Shen Feng shook his head helplessly, turned around and walked towards the house.
"Lao Ying, what's going on?"
Just a few steps away, I saw Ying Xiuwei hurriedly walking over.
"My lord, I got the news just now, the people on our side have already connected with Lei Ye and them, and they will probably arrive early tomorrow morning. ”
"Pick it up, that's good!" It was only at this time that Shen Feng showed a hint of a smile.
......
afternoon
The sun was still shining, but it was missing the heat.
In a compound not far from the barracks.
Shen Feng commanded the little guy with the food box next to him and put the food he brought on the table.
Xi Chuyue sat aside, smiling and stroking the zither, the sound of ding ding dong is like a clear spring flowing in a mountain stream, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.
At the end of the song, Shen Feng smiled and applauded, "Not bad!"
"Is it really good?" asked Xi Chuyue lightly pursed her lips and tilted her head.
"Ahem, okay, I really don't understand!" Shen Feng had no choice but to confess.
"You...... It's too straightforward, isn't it?"
"It sounds really good, but I don't know what to play!" Shen Feng smiled: "Okay, look at what delicious food I brought you today!"
With the gradual calming of Jianlong City, the lives of the people have gradually settled down, and the surviving talents from all walks of life have also gone out of the mountain to fight hard for the food and clothing of the whole family with their craftsmanship.
At least so far, there have been a lot of restaurants opening on the streets of Jianlong City.
Today, Shen Feng brought a few things to eat from the restaurant and came to visit the early moon of the west.
"Forget it, don't talk about this, I thought you wouldn't come!" Since Xi Chuyue was imprisoned here, Shen Feng has been busy with Shentu Yuanwu's affairs, so the promised visit has never been realized. Tomorrow, Chun Niang's side will come to see Dragon City, and when the time comes, I'm afraid I will be busy again. Therefore, Shen Feng planned to take advantage of this leisure time to come over for a visit.
"I have some things to be busy with, but now I'm finally out of here!" Shen Feng smiled.
"I heard about something, can I ask you?" asked Xi Chuyue as she looked at Shen Feng.
"You say!"
"I heard that Shentu Yuanwu is dead?
"Well, the rest of the matter has been dealt with!"
"Who is now the city lord?, is the eunuch of the city eunuch?" Xi Chuyue continued to ask.
"Yo ho, do you know quite a lot?" Shen Feng was a little surprised, these things, if it weren't for Guan Xinghe and them to explain to themselves, even he wouldn't be able to figure out the doors inside, but he didn't expect Xi Chuyue to know this.
"Seeing that there are no eunuchs in Longcheng, the position of the city lord is temporarily empty!"
Shen Feng's answer made Xi Chuyue frown. I saw her sitting there silently, as if thinking about something.
"Don't always ask about the idea of seeing Dragon City, although the city lord is empty, our soldiers and generals are still there!" Shen Feng thought that Xi Chuyue was looking at Long Cheng's idea again, so he nodded at her with his hand and said with a smile.
"What can I do? I'm all prisoners now! ”
"Legends?" Shen Feng was surprised, "It's all about deceiving children!"
Xi Chuyue smiled, didn't care, then picked up a piece of snack, put it in front of her eyes and looked at it carefully, and then said: "At the beginning, you said that the prisoners would be handed over to the city lord to deal with, but now that the city lord is dead, what are you going to do with us?"
"I'm also worried! Judging from the current situation, I can only wait for the new city lord to take office!" Shen Feng frowned, because this matter is usually decided by the city lord. Now that the city lord is gone, everyone doesn't know how to deal with it appropriately, some say that they will be released in exchange for retreating, some say that they will be killed directly, and some people say that they should be pledged for a long time like this, so that Wuyun Country can be used to ensure the safety of Jianlong City.
As for how to deal with it in the end, there is really no unified statement.
"Hehe, New City Lord?" Xi Chuyue smiled, "For the sake of you keeping your promise to come and see me and bring me so much food, I'll reveal a message to you!"
Shen Feng looked up at the other party's fair face and did not speak.
"The new city lord you are talking about, are you planning to wait for the capital to send people? If that's the case, you'd better die of this heart! To tell you the truth, the army of the Cloud Country has not only attacked Changding City and Jianlong City, but also sent troops to other cities. It is not easy for people in the capital to get here. Of course, this is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that the emperor of the Cloud Nation sent people to lobby in the capital very early, intending to make the Mengyue Empire give up Seeing Dragon City and Changding City!"
"And then!" Shen Feng didn't care about this, how could this kind of thing be realized? Cutting off the land? That was the most taboo thing for all emperors.
"Before I was captured by you, the good news had already reached the Cloud Country, and the emperor of your Mengyue Empire had already relented, but the price he asked for was a bit high. After Xi Chuyue finished speaking, she lowered her head and gently took a bite of the snack, and ate it very delicately.
"Hehe, what are you teasing me?" Shen Feng didn't believe it at all.
"Teasing you? I'll show you something!" Xi Chuyue put down her snacks, got up and walked inside, and soon walked out again.
"Look at this!"
As she spoke, she handed a bamboo tube for a flying pigeon to Shen Feng.
Shen Feng opened the bamboo tube, pulled out a very small yellow cloth from it, and after spreading it out, he found a line of handwriting written on it.
"Ren Xuself wants a hundred years of peace!"
"What does this mean?" Shen Feng asked, unable to understand it.
"The emperor of your empire plans to use these two cities in exchange for a hundred years of peace in the Mengyue Kingdom, and he is also a good idea!"
"This must be fake, let me tell you, even I understand that a weak country has no diplomacy, and the emperor will naturally not give up such two large cities just because he signed a letter with you or made a verbal promise or something. After all, if you take the city today, and continue to attack other cities tomorrow, it won't be difficult!"
For this so-called agreement, Shen Feng did not approve of it at all. In his opinion, if it is said that it is a hundred years of peace, who can guarantee that it will not be a hundred days? If people are strong and strong, it is not a matter of time to beat you?
"Huh?" Shen Feng's words made Xi Chuyue stunned for a moment, but it didn't take long for her to understand what Shen Feng meant, "As long as you agree, how can you change it?"
For example, we two, you are very powerful, now you punch me, I can't beat you, you say, give me a snack, I promise not to beat you today, I agreed. But after giving it to me, what can I do if you continue to beat me? I can't beat me anyway, so I don't have to pinch my nose and admit defeat?"
"You...... What do you think? What about deceiving people? That's too much price, isn't it?" said Xi Chuyue in surprise.
"It's too expensive? What do you mean?"
"Like the agreement signed between empires, it is signed by the promise stone, and after it is signed, no matter which party repents, it will be punished by heaven! Who would do such a backshoeal thing and make trouble for themselves?" Xi Chuyue looked at Shen Feng with a surprised expression, not understanding why he had such thoughts.
"Blow it! Blow it hard! He also died of a violent illness, exterminated the clan and ruined the country! In this world, is there really such a powerful thing?" Shen Feng looked incredulous.
"You ......" Xi Chuyue was very speechless, "You don't even know the power of the Promise Stone, do you?"
"Promise Stone, what is that?" Shen Feng really didn't know, he hadn't even heard of it.
"I really doubt that you are from this world!" "Xi Chuyue had an expression of being completely defeated by you, "You don't even know the most famous Promise Stone in the world?"
"Oh!" Shen Feng looked suddenly realised, and then leaned forward, "That's it...... I don't know!"
Xi Chuyue saw that Shen Feng really didn't know the Promise Stone, so she opened her mouth and explained: "The Promise Stone is a magical stone that exists between heaven and earth, but after making a promise or signing an agreement on it, it will take effect on its own. If one party breaches the contract during the validity of the contract, inexplicable energy will flood the person. Then you will suffer all kinds of bad luck. And those who are close to this person will also be invisibly affected, and eventually die of a violent illness, and the country will be ruined. So, except in exceptional circumstances, no one is going to sign an agreement on the Promise Stone. ”
