Hush.

Deathly silence.

Some even forget to breathe.

Golden Knife?

The owner of the Che family had a dry mouth, and kept asking in his heart, how could this be?

In this meeting for the distribution of spoils of the Ye family, he took into account almost all the reactions of the night owls, and even prepared a situation where Ye Erlang led three hundred sons to riot. As long as the goal is achieved, he does not mind using force to solve it, even if it is saddled with notoriety.

However, he didn't expect that the night owl would find Zhao Lanjiang.

The Golden Sword King, the Hidden Sun City Lord, and the Western Frontier God of War, no matter which name they are, they are all awe-inspiring when they say it.

Especially at the moment, the catastrophe that occurred in the Shaolin Temple, the eight major sects and the top masters on the rivers and lakes were all wiped out, the world's martial arts declined, and now even a Zhixuan Realm on the rivers and lakes has become a fragrant bait that the major forces are vying for.

And standing in front of him is the top master in the world, or the King of the Hidden Sun, who can decide the life and death of the entire Che family with his fingers.

He glanced at the night owl and saw a slight smile on his lips.

It turned out that he did it on purpose, waiting to see his own jokes.

He thought in his heart, resigned himself to his fate, how could it be? Surrender? He had to figure out what chips he could get his hands on.

And Zhu Tong, who was directly opposite Zhao Lanjiang, was even more turbulent in his heart. The previous arrogant look disappeared out of thin air like the money in the crude oil treasure, and the expression became extremely humble.

Yuzhou is very close to the capital, close enough to hear about what happened in the palace on the afternoon of the upheaval in the capital. Zhao Lanjiang, who is said to be the only son of the first emperor, was briefly in charge of the government with the support of Xue Huai and Lu Guogong. Of course, neither the King of Shu nor the King of Yu will admit it, but the rumors have always been there.

As the younger brother of King Yu, Zhu Tong felt superior because of his royal status, but in front of Zhao Lanjiang, he did not have any temper.

is not only shocked by Zhao Lanjiang's identity, but also shocked by his means of killing people without blinking.

He finally understood why the prince of Shu left the table early, it turned out that they had already recognized Zhao Lanjiang's identity.

Zhu Tong felt that his knees were a little weak, and then he felt that his pants were a little wet and hot.

The more Zhao Lanjiang was silent, the more pressure Zhu Tong felt, and he was drenched in cold sweat.

Zhao Lanjiang said to Zhu Tong, "Go back and tell King Yu that anyone who wants to start the idea of Arrow County is to declare war on Yinyang City." ”

Hidden Sun?

Wait a minute. Now that Yinyang is no longer under the control of you, Zhao Lanjiang, don't you know that you have a new master now? However, if you think about it, Zhu Tong would not dare to speak this kind of thing.

"Yes...... Be...... The Hidden Sun King. ”

Zhao Lanjiang put his hand on his shoulder, so frightened that Zhu Tong's face turned white, what royal status, his life is at stake, and he was about to open his mouth to beg for mercy, Zhao Lanjiang suddenly said in a low voice, "Go back and sleep well, let's talk tomorrow." ”

Zhu Tong breathed a sigh of relief, and his fate was saved.

As for what to talk about tomorrow? He went back and had a night to prepare, but fortunately, on the way here, he scavenged a lot of gold, silver and jewelry along the way, but he hoped that the Hidden Sun King would not feel too shabby.

......

Originally, the situation of pushing everyone on the wall of the night house fell, after Zhu Tong left, the style of painting suddenly changed.

"I think that the trade base is built in the south of the city, the feng shui is not very good, we are in the north of Xiangjian County, it is easy to make money, I think the Che family's land is very good. "The master of the Kong family, who is good at seeing the wind and making the rudder, was the first to speak.

The head of the Meng family said, "What kind of trade base, the king of Shu and the king of Yu are gone, what base do you mention?"

The Kong family said, "This doesn't prevent Zhao Wangye from building, right? ”

The headlights hated these two people so much, when they contacted the envoys of the King of Shu and the King of Yu, the method of tossing the night owl was also made by the two of them, and they didn't expect the situation to change, and the two of them took the lead in reversing the water.

But now that the situation is like this, he has no choice, he first snorted and said, "We are deeply honored that the King of Hidden Yang can come to this county, I don't know what the prince is doing here?"

Zhao Lanjiang said, "Buy sheep and cars." ”

Sheep and carts?

Of the people present, only Ye Erlang knew that he was telling the truth, but in the ears of others, this kind of cloud-mountain fog-shrouded words were deliberately said by the King of the Hidden Sun for everyone to ponder.

Sheep? That's meat.

Isn't the car a car?

Product, good product, and then tasting.

This is clearly to want to run a car house.

One said, "The most important thing we need in Xiangjian County is cattle and sheep." As for the car?" he glanced at the owner of the Che family, "There are quite a few, so I don't know if the owner of the Che family is reluctant to part with love." ”

The headlights of the car are straight to the flowers, could it be that Zhao Lanjiang has taken a fancy to which girl in their clan?

He made up his mind that he would fight hard no matter what, it was his eighteenth aunt's wife, as long as Zhao Lanjiang took a fancy to it, it would be unambiguous to give it to Zhao Lanjiang.

Of course, it would be even more perfect to take away the ugly, old and grumpy tigress of the original match.

Now the plan is to deal with the night owl.

I pushed him too hard just now.

The night owl laughed twice, "Thanks to the banquet of the Che family master tonight, all your suggestions for the development of Xiangjian County just now, someone in the night will remember it in their hearts, and they will definitely repay it." ”

The headlights of the car laughed, "The night family has always been the leader of our Xiangjian County, and those words just now are all jokes, adults don't remember villains, and I hope don't go to heart." ”

"What if I go to my heart?"

With Zhao Lanjiang's support, he spoke with confidence, and secretly vowed to make up for the previous humiliation one by one.

The night owl said, "What do you say?"

"The Che family get out of Xiangjian County, of course, I won't do anything desperately, the five hundred acres of wasteland in the south of the city, you can place the clansmen there. ”

The headlights' face changed greatly, "Night boss, don't force people too much." ”

The night owl snapped, "You pushed people too hard first." ”

The others also echoed the Night Stalker's proposal and drew a clear line with the Che family, they had already stood in the wrong line once, and this opportunity must not be missed.

"We agree with the opinion of the Ye family master, the Che family has gone too far in these years, and the people of Xiangjian County have put up with you for a long time. ”

In the face of the aggressiveness of the night owl, the headlights of the car sat on the table like a defeated rooster, looking like he was ready to be slaughtered.

The night owl said again: "By the way, tell you that our night family will marry the King of the Hidden Sun, and don't forget to come and drink the wedding wine when the time comes." ”

Everyone suddenly realized, so it was, no wonder Zhao Lanjiang would give the Ye family a head.

However, Zhao Lanjiang, who was on the side, frowned. He wanted to tie up with Ringing Arrow

Alliance, but it doesn't mean an alliance with the Night Family, but the Night Stalker has been using his prestige to help himself, although he will do the same if he does, but this feeling is very unpleasant.

Zhao Lanjiang suddenly said, "Actually, the establishment of a trade zone is also a good choice. ”

As soon as he spoke, everyone shut up. "However, it doesn't have to be built inside the city, if there is land outside the city, it is not bad to build outside the city, and the efficiency can be higher. ”

As soon as the headlights of the car heard it, the opportunity came, and even said, "We are willing to give up the vacant land in the south of the city, and the Che family is also willing to use the strength of the whole family to build a base for the prince, and when the time comes, the prince only needs to send someone to manage it." ”

Others heard that Zhao Lanjiang had the intention of letting go of the Che family, and currying favor with the Ye family, where was there a direct way to please the King of Yinyang, and they also expressed their attitudes, "Building a trade base is a major event for us in Xiangjian County, and we are also willing to donate money to help the prince!"

The night owl listened to the secret scolding in his heart, the wind in Xiangjian County is too strong, and these wall grasses that fall with the wind are not things. However, his face was full of smiles, and he said, "The prince has this consideration, and our Ye family is willing to contribute people and money to undertake this matter." ”

"Master of the Night Family, although you are rich, it is also our intention to share the worries and solve problems for the prince, so we can't let you monopolize it, right?"

Zhao Lanjiang said, "When it comes to sharing worries and solving problems, Zhao has indeed encountered some trouble recently. Someone took advantage of Zhao's trip to the capital to mutiniate in Yinyang, and Zhao wanted to borrow some soldiers and horses from Guijun and go back to clean up the mess. ”

When everyone heard this, they realized that Hidden Sun City had already changed its owner. What Zhao Lanjiang said earlier was just a blank check.

Although there is a high probability of cashing out, there are risks.

If it succeeds, everything is easy to say. But if it fails, everything that happens tonight will be counted.

I can't help but make difficulties, it's really difficult to be a wall grass.

At this time, Ye Erlang suddenly said, "General Zhao, I am willing to lead three hundred Erlang of the Ye family to help the general!"

The night owl was a little dissatisfied, these people were the main forces of the Ye family, although they all listened to Ye Erlang, but he was the head of the family, Ye Erlang had to discuss it with himself before making a decision, right? However, in front of Zhao Lanjiang and the township party, he couldn't refute it, and echoed, "I am willing to serve the prince." ”

After some discussion, with the support of the four major families and the gentry, it was decided to establish a trading base in the 500 acres of wasteland in the south of the city.

Zhao Lanjiang also appropriately drew a big cake for the people present, and in return, Xiangjian County also drew a big cake for Zhao Lanjiang.

That is, it is now the rainy season, and as soon as the flood season is over, the construction of the trade zone will begin. There is a buffer time in between.

Both Zhao Lanjiang and everyone in Xiangjian County knew that the premise for this agreement to take effect was that Zhao Lanjiang would take back Yinyang City.

Although it did not achieve the goal of forcing the Che family out of Xiangjian County, the night owl was relatively satisfied with tonight's result.

The only thing that was unhappy was that Ye Erlang took it upon himself to agree to send troops to support Zhao Lanjiang. In particular, Zhao Lanjiang decided that after retaking Yinyang City, Ye Erlang would serve as the county guard of Xiangjian County. However, these are all internal contradictions, as long as Concubine Yeyu marries Zhao Lanjiang, no matter who is the county guard, the master of Xiangjian County, or he is the night owl.

......

Early the next morning, Ye Erlang came to visit Zhao Lanjiang.

Ye Erlang said, "Back then, I fought with the general Hengduan Mountain, and the battle was hearty, and now I have the opportunity to stand side by side with the general, which is an honor for someone in the night." Today, I summoned the three hundred sons and told them these words, and they are all gearing up, ready to fight with the general!"

Zhao Lanjiang looked at this robe of the year and said, "The master of the night family is your uncle, right?"

Ye Erlang was stunned for a moment and nodded.

He was a scheming person, understood what Zhao Lanjiang meant, and said solemnly, "These are all internal family affairs, I will handle them, besides, without my order, no one can call these sons." ”

Zhao Lanjiang said, "It seems that I am too worried." ”

Ye Erlang laughed, "I can't even handle this kind of thing well, wouldn't it be in vain in the past ten years in the Western Army?"

From one small clue one can see what is coming.

From the first meeting with the night owl in private, to the fact that Ye Erlang decided to send troops to Zhao Lanjiang, Zhao Lanjiang also noticed that the Ye family was not monolithic.

However, whatever he does, they are not willing to meddle in their own family affairs under the premise that the situation is controllable.

What's more, if he marries Concubine Yeyu in the future, he still needs someone to restrain the night owl. Internally, Ye Erlang is the best candidate, as for the outside, it can be seen from the fact that Zhao Lanjiang let go of the Che family.

Today's Zhao Lanjiang is no longer the swordsman of the rivers and lakes of the past, but the overlord of Hidden Yang City.

Jianghu swordsmen, can be willful, can be happy and revenge.

The overlord is a hero, he has to consider strategy, move at the right time, and make trade-offs.

This is what has changed in three months.

It was this journey to the west, accustomed to life and death, and cannibalism, the more he felt that the mission and responsibility he was carrying, whether it was Yinyang City or the Great Tomorrow, it made him unable to act like Zhao Lanjiang before.

When Zhao Lanjiang cut off Zhu Liye's head, he was completely separated from his former self, and the blood in his body and the ambition in his chest gave him the ambition to dominate the world.

He knew his status and power, which made this goal seem a little far away, but this was the motivation for Zhao Lanjiang to continue to survive.

Did he choose his fate?

Or did fate choose him?

Zhao Lanjiang doesn't know, and he doesn't think about it, his ambition is very far, but his goal is very clear, to recapture Yinyang City first.

Zhu Tong, the Marquis of Zhongliu, sent a "generous gift", came to Zhao Lanjiang's residence with a humble face, and gave Zhao Lanjiang a salute as soon as he came.

"See the Hidden Sun King!"

Zhao Lanjiang came to the door to greet him and stopped, "If you really talk about it, you can still be regarded as my uncle." ”

Where did Zhu Tong dare to call himself an uncle, he stayed awake all night last night, pondering about today's talks, all the words went through several times in his mind, for fear that the sentence was wrong, and he was clicked by Zhao Lanjiang, and when he heard Zhao Lanjiang so kind, he was so relieved that he was even modest a few times, and was let into the house.

A servant served tea, and Zhao Lanjiang also used the magic skill of circling that he couldn't see, and chatted with Zhu Tong about the customs and customs of Kaifeng Mansion.

But he didn't dare to take it lightly, he knew that the masters of the rivers and lakes made moves, often false and real, and took the other party's life with a knife while you were not paying attention, so he played with the spirit of twelve points and dealt with Zhao Lanjiang's words.

But after talking for more than an hour, the tea was changed twice, Zhao Lanjiang never said the purpose of today, and finally Zhu Tong couldn't help it and asked, "Lord today."

Come, it's not just to talk to you, is it?"

Zhao Lanjiang said strangely, "What do you say about Zhongliuhou?"

"Isn't there any purpose?"

Zhao Lanjiang laughed, "What purpose can I have?"

"The prince didn't let the king of Yu and the king of Shu get involved in Xiangjian County, isn't it to rely on this as a support, and one day, he can dominate the Central Plains?"

Zhao Lanjiang said with a straight face, "Zhongliu Hou is too worried, if he had this kind of thought, this king would have changed back to his ancestral surname a long time ago." ”

Ancestral surname, Zhu.

A secret that is not a secret.

"But speaking of which, there is one thing that really has to be discussed with the Marquis of Zhongliu. ”

Zhu Tongxin said, finally to the point, he stood up, bowed slightly, and said, "Although the prince commands." ”

Zhao Lanjiang pulled him to sit down, "It's not a big deal, please tell King Yu that this king doesn't have the heart to chase the Central Plains, he just wants to guard one acre and three points of land and be a rich city lord." Xiangjian County is the end of the Yinyang Trade Road, so in this regard, the king does not want to give in, and asks the Marquis of Zhongliu to explain more to the king of Yu after he returns. ”

Zhu Tong said, "I will do it." ”

"Of course, Yinyang borders with Western Chu and Northern Zhou, not to mention Western Chu, now the north is more chaotic, robbers are numerous, I am ready to use the Yinyang trade road, and the Northern Zhou Dynasty to establish a border trade, if the king of Yu needs in the future, please also ask the Marquis to stay here a few more good words. ”

Only then did Zhu Tong understand that when it came to it, it was still for money.

It is true that Zhao Lanjiang controls the business, but if there is no family, many goods will not be able to be marketed to the Central Plains, and Zhao Lanjiang is looking for him in order to make a deal with him.

However, there are no disadvantages to the great cause of King Yu, and he is naturally happy to accept it.

Zhao Lanjiang took out two documents from his arms and said, "Although King Yu failed to build a trade base, we still have the sincerity of Yinyang. The Marquis of Zhongliu ran all the way away, and he couldn't return empty-handed. There are two contracts here, one percent of the dry shares are given to the king of Yu, and the other two percent are for the marquis of Zhongliu. ”

Zhu Tong repeatedly excused himself, "This can't be helped!"

Zhao Lanjiang pretended to have a sinking face, "We are all surnamed Zhu, we are all relatives, and we have money to earn together, so you won't be happy if you resign from this king." Besides, if King Yu can ascend to the throne in the future, this king still hopes to be able to get a title in his name. ”

Zhu Tong accepted it at this time, and an illusion was born in his heart, the legendary demon who kills people without blinking an eye is not so difficult to get along with.

"Then you're welcome. ”

After sending away Zhu Tong, the Marquis of Zhongliu, the situation on the side of Xiangjian County was stabilized. Yajiro walked out of the side room, "General, why is this?"

Zhao Lanjiang handed the gift list sent by Zhu Tong to Ye Erlang, and said, "Find someone to copy a copy of the gift list, and find a way to send it to King Yu with the contract of the two dry shares just now." ”

Ye Erlang just wanted to ask, and immediately understood that Zhu Tong was the most trusted person of King Yu, and Zhao Lanjiang's move was to prepare to insert a nail in King Yu's side, whether it worked or not, he would play this move first.

As for dry stocks and dividends, profits and losses are not up to Zhao Lanjiang? If Zhu Tong is of some use, then there will be dividends, and if they are useless, they will be losses.

In this way, it is equivalent to Zhao Lanjiang tying Zhu Tong and himself together, and if there is any trouble in the future, Zhu Tong will definitely find a way to take care of Zhao Lanjiang.

Thinking of this, Ye Erlang understood Zhao Lanjiang's thoughts.

This Hidden Sun King, where will he only be satisfied with being a happy prince, what he wants to seek is the whole world.

Zhao Wangye, not only is his martial arts transcendent and sacred, but his strategy is also not to be underestimated.

Thinking of this, he strengthened his confidence to follow Zhao Lanjiang.

......

Sure enough, after Zhao Lanjiang helped the Ye family stabilize the situation in Xiangjian County, the Ye family was not so concerned about Zhao Lanjiang's marriage.

It's not that I don't agree, but since I'm marrying a princess, I have to marry Mingmei, right? And it also takes time to prepare.

It's all the masters who don't see rabbits and don't scatter eagles, if you Zhao Lanjiang don't take back Yinyang City, the marriage will be dragged on first.

You draw me bread, and I'll write you blank checks.

The two do not owe each other.

If it was before, Zhao Lanjiang would have been annoyed a long time ago, but now he is no longer the Zhao Lanjiang he used to be, not to mention, every night the eldest lady takes the initiative to warm the bed, and he has not suffered a loss. It's not that she didn't suffer a loss, this night lady was a little excessive, causing Zhao Lanjiang to often get up after three poles a day.

The news of Zhao Lanjiang's stay in Xiangjian County soon spread to Yinyang and the surrounding nineteen cities. This made the owner of the ghost fan very unhappy.

He seized the City Lord's Mansion for two months, and he also killed a lot of people, but the people below Hidden Yang City didn't seem to be interested in him, the Ghost Fan Mansion Lord.

He can't kill them all, so won't he become the lord of the bare pole city?

Zhao Lanjiang's influence on Yinyang City is too great, and after so many things, Zhao Lanjiang's influence even exceeds that of the golden knife Li Qiuyi back then.

Yinyang is martial and advocates the strong, Li Changzheng has nothing to do, and he can't conquer the hearts of the people of Yinyang.

Not only did he not conquer the people, but even the other eighteen city lords also ignored him. After all, what kind of climate can a hairy boy in his twenties become?

He couldn't tell them that he was an old goblin who had lived for 500 years.

Although Li Changzheng occupied Tang Bujing's skin, he had previous experience, and he did not completely kill Tang Bujing after he took it, and sometimes even returned his body to Tang Bujing, and he also stole half a day of leisure, this feeling of symbiosis is also good.

As for the predicament of Yinyang City, Li Changzheng knew that there would inevitably be a battle between him and Zhao Lanjiang, and it would be a battle of righteousness and brightness, otherwise, he would not be able to win the hearts of the people of Yinyang at all.

If there are people in this world who are not afraid of Zhao Lanjiang, he Li Changzheng is one.

In terms of martial arts, it is also outside the Three Realms, and now that the Hidden Yang Great Array is in his hands, as long as Zhao Lanjiang is in Hidden Yang City, he will definitely not be his opponent.

What's more, after the Heavenly Dao descended, he obviously felt that the luck of this world was weakening, and the true yuan between heaven and earth was not even as abundant as before, and he knew that something must have gone wrong somewhere, but these were not things he had to think about now.

Zhao Lanjiang was planning to recapture Yinyang, so why wasn't he waiting for Zhao Lanjiang to fight? In Jinling City, he was almost killed by Li Chengcheng, and Zhao Lanjiang also stabbed him.

Now that he has the Hidden Sun Array in his hand, he has no fear, and it is an opportunity for revenge. Therefore, he let out his words and waited for Zhao Lanjiang to come in Yinyang City.

Since Zhao Lanjiang also intends to do this, he will be more generous, and if he wins in the future, he will be able to increase some prestige among the people of Yinyang.

After cleaning up Zhao Lanjiang, he will take the 100,000 idle expeditionary army in Hulukou as his own, and in a few years, he will turn Yinyang into his base camp.
