"Even if the helmsman succeeds by then, it will be difficult to explain to the above. Lin Xiqi sighed.

"As long as you control Liangzhou, even if those people slander, it won't be easy to move the helm, right? Zhang Yuan said.

"Yes, such a great credit cannot be erased. Lin Xiqi said, "I hope the helmsman can invite enough masters." ”

"Absolutely. Zhang Yuan said.

Zhang Yuan didn't stay in the house for long, he just complained for a while and left.

Zhang Yuan's complaints brought a lot of news to Lin Xiqi.

At least he knew that the helmsman of the Liangzhou rudder had gone to the Red Lotus Sect in the Western Regions to ask for reinforcements.

This matter needs to be paid attention to.

It can be heard from Zhang Yuan's tone that this matter should most likely be done.

In this way, the masters of the Seven Star Sect should be in place.

However, this matter should not be so fast, at least it will have to wait until the end of this competition for the Dragon and Tiger Rankings.

This was all heard from Zhang Yuan's complaints.

Lin Xiqi can't all trust his own judgment, but now there is at least a lot of news, and he still has to make good use of it.

As the connection between the 'Quartet Firm' and the Western Regions became closer and closer, Wang Dong's 'Skynet' also began to infiltrate the Western Regions.

Therefore, he also learned a lot about some of the situations in the Western Regions.

The Western Regions does not refer to a single country, there are many small countries there, which are collectively called the Western Regions by the Great Xia side.

One of them, called Persia, is not weak, and the old helm of the Red Lotus Sect is in the territory of Persia, but where it is, Wang Dong has not yet explored.

These are probably only known to a few high-ranking people of the Red Lotus Sect.

After all, the Red Lotus Sect is secretive, and it will not be exposed so easily.

But Lin Xiqi still got a lot of news about the Red Lotus Sect in the Western Regions.

It is now that the Red Lotus Sect in the Western Regions does not have a sect leader, and there is a new sect leader on the Great Xia side, but this sect leader is not recognized by the old chief helm on the Western Regions side.

It stands to reason that the old helm of the Western Regions is the authentic Red Lotus Sect, and the current Red Lotus Sect in Great Xia was only established by a part of the people who were separated from the old helm.

In the end, the power has risen sharply in recent years, completely overpowering the old helm, and he has established himself as the sect leader, and he is not very connected with the old helm, and he thinks he is orthodox.

The sect leader and some holy sons, saints, and masters on the side of Great Xia have not been able to detect it yet.

But there are a lot of gains in the Western Regions.

That is, the chief helm of the Western Regions now not only has no sect master, but also no holy son, and there is only one holy woman in the general rudder.

According to the rules of the Red Lotus Sect, the status of the sect leader is the highest, followed by the Holy Son.

There is only one Holy Son, and he is almost the next leader.

The status of the saint is also very high, but it is much worse than the holy son.

The number of saints is not just one, there can be many.

Generally speaking, these saints are basically harem women of the Holy Son.

This saint in the old helm of the Western Regions is said to be the granddaughter of the previous sect leader, so her status is very extraordinary, much higher than those saints in the past.

Now that the old chief helm of the Western Regions does not have a sect leader and a holy son, this special holy woman is the one in charge.

It seems that he has to ask Wang Dong to strengthen the investigation of the news in the Western Regions.

It is best to find out what masters from the Western Regions have entered Liangzhou.

Lin Xiqi soon recruited Du Fuchong and asked him to inform Wang Dong.

The candidates recommended for this competition for the Dragon and Tiger List have all been decided, and the Seven Star Sect and the State Pastoral Mansion have decided to set off together in ten days.

There are still twenty days left, and the arrival in the capital should be several days in advance, which is about the right time.

In the ten days before leaving for the capital, Lin Xiqi, the new state pastor, traveled to the major counties below.

On this day, he came to Sandao County.

He came here for an excuse, that is, he wanted to meet the master of Fuyun, after all, the Seven Star Sect Renjiang and the others went to participate in the competition for the Dragon and Tiger List, which was worthy of his attention as a state pastor.

After coming, he heard that the magistrate of Sandao County was sick, and he also went to visit him personally.

If it were an ordinary magistrate, he would definitely not be like this as a state pastor.

But Sandao County was the place where the Later Yuan army was defeated, and this county also had considerable merit.

The people outside didn't know what Zhou Mu and the magistrate of Sandao County had discussed, but they only knew that the two had met.

They are all the same person as Lin Xiqi, and he can only use this form to hide from everyone's investigation.

He didn't want to expose the fact that the magistrate of Sandao County was not in the county office.

Because the magistrate of Sandao County was ill, the responsibility of accompanying the state pastor in the end fell on Renjiang, the sect leader of the Fuyun Sect.

"Your Excellency, you see, that is the camp where the Tartars were stationed back then. The group stood on the city wall, and Renjiang pointed to the distance outside the city and introduced Lin Xiqi.

Ren Jiang already knew that the state pastor in front of him was pretending to be his junior brother, but now he also regarded Lin Xiqi as the real state pastor, and he was meticulous in his reception.

Just like now, he introduced Lin Xiqi.

In fact, Lin Xiqi knows these things better than him, but Lin Xiqi also cooperated with Renjiang and listened carefully, this is for outsiders to see.

"Today's Sandao County is very prosperous. Lin Xiqi glanced at the city gate, and there was an endless stream of people and carriages coming in and out.

"It's all the credit of Lord Lin. Renjiang smiled.

"This official has heard that Guizong has also made a lot of efforts to integrate the three trade routes, and the caravans here have passed through more, and the county will naturally become prosperous. Lin Xiqi said with a smile.

Just as the two were talking on the city wall, Lin Xiqi's face moved slightly.

His eyes couldn't help but look in the direction of the gate under the city wall, where a carriage happened to enter, which didn't look too luxurious, but it wasn't an ordinary carriage.

It should also be a carriage that is either rich or expensive.

But to the people of the city, these carriages are no stranger to them now.

Due to the busyness of the three mountain roads, many of the merchants and stewards were in such carriages, and many of them were much better than this carriage.

Renjiang noticed the change in Lin Xiqi, and he also looked at the carriage.

But he didn't see anything unusual, he just felt that the strength of the guards next to the carriage was a little extraordinary.

But such guards are still common in Sandao County, and many of them are the guards of those caravans.

"My lord?" Ren Jiang couldn't help but ask.

"Sect Master, it's almost here, I don't know where to go next?" Lin Xiqi retracted his gaze and asked.

Lin Xiqi didn't say much, he seemed to see a familiar look just now.

When his eyes looked at the carriage, the curtain of the carriage seemed to have just been lowered.

Although he had never seen the people inside, Lin Xiqi still caught a glimpse of a pair of eyes, and he felt that he had seen them there.

It's just that he can't remember it for a while.

"It's almost noon, and the restaurant in front of me has prepared food and drinks, and I invite you to enjoy it. Renjiang said.

"Let's go, then. Lin Xiqi nodded.

So the great crowd descended the city wall and went to a restaurant in front of them.

"This carriage?" When Lin Xiqi walked to the door of the restaurant, he found a carriage parked aside, which was the one he saw at the city gate.
