Chapter 105: The King's Mansion (Part I)
After Su Jing taught the little demon a lesson, he continued to ask questions about Su Xue's clues.
Although Inujuro was a little ridiculous, he still found a useful clue this time. The tunnel went to a shop, but it was a place to sell charcoal. The nobles in Yujing City, except for special banquets, usually use charcoal to heat their kitchen food. There are a lot of charcoal shops in Yujing City, and it is also one of the most mixed places for outsiders to come and go.
At that charcoal shop, Inujuro smelled a hint of Su Xue's breath, but interrupted again. Dog meat restaurant and charcoal shop, with these two places as the target of the investigation, can quickly integrate useful information.
Su Jing was afraid that the ghosts of the Terracotta Division would be involved in this matter, so he simply went directly to Su Ling and verbally told him the information. Su Ling didn't want to alarm outsiders, but went directly to Xiaoyaohou to mobilize manpower from the side of the Military Intelligence Department.
Intelligence analysis is not something Su Jing is good at, he found two strongholds, and if he asked the Military Intelligence Department to start from the two strongholds, he would soon get useful information.
Inujuro did a good job and didn't alarm anyone. If the face appeared on Zhuangyuan Street and was stared at by the other party's eyeliner, basically when the Military Intelligence Department was ready to make a move, the person would have disappeared long ago.
Inujuro left after being late at the brothel, and this kind of person is so common that no one will pay attention to him. is also because he is too involved, no matter how good his eyeliner is, he can't tell that he is looking for intelligence.
The birthday of King Wuwei was eight days later, and Su Jing didn't have much time to investigate this matter in person. He is now making that congratulatory gift every day, occasionally going to Su Mu's place to soak in the spiritual spring.
The effect of the iron beast soaking the spiritual spring is not bad, at least it is better than the effect of eating the flesh and blood of the purple electric mink, Su Jing found that after this iron beast soaked the spiritual spring, the growth rate of the body became faster. Just once stopped. The growth of the Ironrodon immediately slowed down, and it was very noticeable.
In that spiritual spring, I don't know what is in the Dao, which is necessary for the iron beast. And Lingquan didn't have any bad changes because of the arrival of the iron beast, but the effect on Su Jing and Su Mu became better and better.
Su Mu is so clean, Su Jing can still accept it. But let her soak in the ironroder, and say nothing. Su Mu saw that Su Jing often came over, and wanted to ask Su Jing what congratulatory gifts he had prepared, but Su Jing didn't say anything. Su Mu herself was also worried, but her congratulatory gift was almost fine, and she didn't need to compare with other royal disciples.
If there is any progress on the side of the Military Intelligence Department, Su Ling will sort out a copy and give it to Su Jing to see. There is still little clue about the matter. Su Jing is really not in a hurry, at least judging from the available information, the other party is not really alert, if Su Xue is not dead, he must still be in Yujing City.
The other party had a strong man in the Jindan realm who ruined the jade jue on Su Xue's body. If you want to do it, this matter can't alarm the royal qi refiners, at most, the military intelligence department can open a little formation in the jade capital. Even if it's a little help. There are more than a dozen Qi Refiners in the Foundation Building Period, which is enough to deal with the powerhouse of the Jindan realm.
The formation of Yujing City was activated. It's a giant killing machine.
So this matter, Su Jing is done, and what results Su Xue will have, it is not something he can predict.
At the end of the month, Su Jing and Su Mu specially invited Xiaoyao Hou to say goodbye, and they could talk about the post of the king of Wuwei County. Invite them over to a wine feast.
Of course, Xiaoyao Hou knew what Lu Dao was for, but Su Jing and Princess Wuwu had never met in this matter, so he had to pretend not to know Lu Dao, once the two people didn't look down on each other, so as not to be embarrassed.
Su Jing was just a little strange. It stands to reason that the Marquis of Joy would never like to marry a royal family. And it seems that Xiaoyao Hou is very supportive of himself to meet the carefree princess.
There are the Su family and the original family behind the Marquis of Xiaoyao, and once he marries the royal family, the identity is too delicate. When the time comes, the family behind it may not be suspicious. This is the world realm of Qi refiners, not the earth. For the Su family and the original family, a clean and clean Xiaoyao Hou is the best.
The big housekeeper Ju Yueshan prepared a big car for Su Jing's brothers and sisters, and sent ten personal soldiers to protect him, and Su Jing now has only two little demons around him, and there are no small ones. However, it is not surprising that there are people in the Taoist sect who like to be alone and do not let people serve.
The two of them sat in the car, and Su Mu couldn't help but ask, "Third brother, what have you prepared, let me take a look?"
Su Jing just smiled and asked rhetorically: "What have you prepared, don't be too shabby, Princess Sanssouci is your friend after all." ”
Su Jing said this truthfully, the post under the county king's mansion is divided into two parts, please Su Jing, as the son of the Marquis of Xiaoyao, please Su Mu, but because she is the best friend of Princess Sanssouci.
Su Jing's things are bad, what he loses is his own face and that of Xiaoyaohou, Su Mu's things are bad, and Princess Sanssouci's face is not good-looking. In fact, she got all the people, and whatever went wrong was enough for her to be depressed.
Su Mu said helplessly: "There is nothing in the royal family, the Eastern Qin Empire is rich, and no one in the Jiang royal family is indulged in pleasure, and the family has saved more and more over the years." The things used by the Qi Refiner, no one can look at them when I take them out. However, I heard that the king of Wuwei added a boy last month, and it may be his last child, so I prepared this. ”
Su Mu said and took out a small wooden box. This wooden box has an ancient style, which is opened in the middle of the main part, and after opening, the whole thing is turned over, and six small battle flags are erected on each side, and under the battle flags, there are ten mechanical puppets each, dressed as infantry.
This is the toy that the Qi Refiner gives to children, and it only takes a little bit of divine power to attract it. This thing was originally developed by Momen, and the real scale would be very large, and later the soldiers also absorbed it and used it as a war sand table.
After the Daomen was obtained, there was basically no new development, but it was just an extra function for children as toys.
Su Jing said: "Your arsenal seems to be quite old?"
"It was almost made in the heyday of the military family, and at that time, the two sides had not yet met each other. Su Mu replied. For Qi Refiners, this thing basically has no effect, but it is very rare and an antique.
This kind of thing, children like it, and the king of Wuwei County will not feel shabby. Because there's nowhere to buy it. To put it bluntly, this thing was originally because it was worthless, and after some powerful refining masters made some of them, they gave up their efforts to develop more rune systems.
As a result, this toy has become a limited edition, even if there is a strong Jindan who can make it now, it is not as good as the original handwriting. No one wastes much energy on one kind of toy.
Because it is scarce, it is expensive. This thing is like a diamond on the earth, natural is really worth owning than artificial, it is a stone, and artificial diamonds at least have industrial value. The puppet on this toy is only the size of a finger, and it can't be used on the battlefield at all.
This thing is also valuable for research. What Su Mu took out was obviously a toy from her childhood.
Su Jing was a little reluctant, and said to Su Mu: "You might as well keep this thing." ”
"What to keep it for. Su Mu replied lightly and put the box away again. This is something that Xiaoyao Hou gave her, although she likes it very much, but every time her mother's sacrifice day, she will be very sad, because her mother has left her nothing, not even a hair.
Su Jing didn't know what to say, this kind of thing between parents and children, all he had left was regret. Xiaoyaohou will never give him the feeling of his father, this is a helpless thing, so he didn't persuade him.
The mansion of the king of Wuwei County is in Beicheng, not far from the mansion of the Marquis of Xiaoyao. The area is not as large as the Xiaoyao Hou Mansion, but the main entrance is really magnificent. This is a standard treatment only available to the royal family, and I can't envy it. To be precise, the main gate was built like a castle tower.
It's just that the wall of the county king's mansion is very narrow, only the door has a floor, and a huge plaque under the eaves is written in the five words of Wuwei County's palace, which is written by the emperor himself.
The carriage passed in front of the gate, and the main gate was closed, and like the Hou Mansion, the main gate would only be opened if the emperor came or the county king went on an expedition. On the main entrance, the purple-black wooden door is imprinted with a lifelike Vermilion Bird pattern with Taoism, which is the symbol of the Jiang royal family.
The Confucian sect called the emperor a dragon, and the Taoist sect certainly did not do so. The dragon is powerful, and Daomen knows that it is not comparable to ordinary demon beasts, and he is not willing to cling to anything. It's just that the rules of the emperor won't be completely eliminated for a while, for example, the word Longyan Dayue can't be changed to Bird's Face Dayue just because Jiang's totem is Vermilion Bird. That's not sycophancy, it's that I don't want to live anymore. No courtier would make such a suggestion.
The car window had been opened, Su Mu looked at the main entrance of the Wuwei County Palace, and sighed: "Third brother, when did you say we would also have such a house?"
Su Jing smiled and said, "Your ambition is too small. ”
Su Jing remembered the historical records written by Sima Dashen, that Xiang Yu and Liu Bang saw the first emperor on patrol, and on the way, one said that the eldest husband should be like this, and the other wanted to replace him.
In this world where immortals can be cultivated, being an emperor is not the greatest ambition, let alone the title of a county king.
Su Mu didn't have that much ambition in front of him, and when he heard Su Jing's words, he just thought he was still childish. The Jiang royal family is impossible to defeat. His Majesty Jiang Yan, a nine-fold golden pill powerhouse, is comparable to a true immortal who has soared. There are fierce generals under him, and a group of mysterious guards are secretly guarding, and it is said that each of them has an immortal weapon in hand. This dynasty has never been stronger.
From top to bottom of the Eastern Qin Empire, no one could know the news that the Emperor was going westward, but none of them thought that the emperor would fail, and they all broke their heads and wanted to take the lead and make war achievements.
The carriage drove slowly past the gate, and the shadow formed by the gate quickly disappeared, and Su Jing let out a long breath. He could feel the Suzaku pattern on the gate as if he had turned his head and glanced at him. (To be continued.) )
