Chapter 88: A Thousand Suns Rise
()
In addition to the county king's mansion and Yi Lou in Qianyang County, there are four major families, which are located in the four directions of the county king's mansion, if the county king's mansion is the ranks of the first force in Qianyang County, then they and Yi Lou are the existence of the second rank, and below them, there are small families attached to the four major families and can only dominate the third rank of the general city.
Throughout the thousands of years of changes in the history of Qianyang County, the change of times has not affected their existence at all, but after witnessing the rise and fall of many small families, their heritage is even more unimaginably strong.
Although the four major families alone and two may not be the opponents of the county king's mansion, if the four families can cooperate sincerely, even the county king's mansion will be afraid of one or two.
It's just that where there are people, there will naturally be disputes, let alone the hegemonic power of one side, and it is simply impossible for the four to cooperate sincerely.
To the southeast of the Junwang Mansion is the palace family of the four major families, and it is also the strongest of the four families.
In a bamboo forest as green as jasper, after Shen Shijie and the others left, their information was sent here as soon as possible, and came to the hands of the current young master of the palace family.
Since the head of the Gong family has already started a retreat and intends to hand over the family affairs to the young master of the palace family, the current young master of the palace family is the first person in charge of the palace family, and everything needs him to confirm and make decisions.
"Oh! It not only alarmed Yi Lou, but even the people of the Junwang Mansion were alarmed, it seems that the identities of these two people will definitely not be simple."
The young master of the palace family is a young man dressed as a scholar, with a very confident smile on his handsome face, and a magic power that can attract attention in his shrewd eyes, and he always has a strategic-like temperament.
Looking at the first thing that came into view, the young master of the palace family laughed quite interestingly, but soon he let out a soft sigh.
"Hey, I actually need to activate the teleportation array to send the two away, it seems that I underestimated the identity of the two"
"Is that all?"
The young master of the palace family did not look up, and continued to look at the information in his hand.
"Tell the young master, more information is still being investigated, and there is only so much that can be collected at the moment."
"That's not enough, give you half a day, continue to check on me, I want to know what has alarmed Yilou and the Junwang Mansion"
Throwing the information in his hand on the table in front of him, a look of thought appeared in the eyes of the young master of the palace family.
And after hearing his order, the person in charge of intelligence gathering also left this place in an instant.
"What's the matter, Xuejun, is there a problem with the identities of these two people?"
Standing beside Gong Xuejun was a beautiful woman, holding a jasper piano, a pair of beautiful eyes like a pool of clear water, and her voice was even more gentle and crisp, extremely moving.
"Su Lan, these two people are not problematic, but there is a big problem"
Looking at Zhou Sulan, who was still puzzled, Gong Xuejun took the jasper qin she was holding in her arms and put it on the table in front of her.
"Speaking of the first point alone, they came to Qianyang County under the escort of Yi Lou, if it was only Yi Lou's family who was alarmed, it can only be said that the two of them are important people in Yi Lou, and there is no problem, we just need to pay attention to it secretly, as for those elders and guards of Yi Lou, it can also be said that they have offended them.
But at the moment, there is not only Yilou, but also the county king's mansion involved, you may have also heard of a saying in Qianyang County: When the county king's mansion moves, there will be turbulence, and Qianyang County will go through the baptism of wind and rain."
"I've heard this sentence before, but isn't this a joke passed on by the common people below?"
Zhou Sulan looked at Gong Xuejun's serious appearance and couldn't help but smile.
"Su Lan, others may think that this sentence is a joke, a joke used by ordinary people for daily pastime, but for our four major families, this is actually an iron law stained with blood"
Gong Xuejun's words were very heavy, and his face became solemn, and Zhou Sulan also covered her mouth and showed surprise when she saw this.
"The people of the county king's mansion did not move, because nothing beyond their expectations happened, so it will always be calm and peaceful in Qianyang County, otherwise, there must be uncontrollable factors, and it is more likely that there are factors that can set off a bloody storm, so they have to investigate carefully.
Moreover, judging from the fact that the county king's mansion dispatched guards and a commander just because of the two of them, coupled with the urgent need to activate the teleportation array to send them away, they must be important people from the empire."
"Empire, even the people of the empire shouldn't be so alarmed."
Although Gong Xuejun's words were interrupted, he was not angry, but looked at Zhou Sulan with some appreciation.
"Su Lan, you're right, although the families in the empire are powerful, their identities alone are not so, so there is only one identity for these two people."
It's just that after saying this, Gong Xuejun didn't continue, but pointed to his head in Zhou Sulan's confusion, and then smiled and flicked the jasper qin in front of him, and a pleasant and moving song echoed in the bamboo forest from his slender hand.
Zhou Sulan, who was beside him, also suddenly realized, and was immediately attracted by the beautiful tune, and looked at Gong Xuejun, who was playing seriously, stunned.
Until the evening, a jasper string under Gong Xuejun's hand suddenly broke, and the many small animals attracted by the sound of the piano were frightened away, and Zhou Sulan beside him was also shocked, looking at Gong Xuejun's hand with some distress.
Directly in front of Gong Xuejun, the spies who had found out all the news appeared here again and presented it to Gong Xuejun.
"Oh, the trialist in the Yilou trial? Hey, their son-in-law is actually inside, the mysterious man in black? interesting, I didn't expect it to be like this."
Gong Xuejun was surprised at first, and then had undisguised disdain, but soon he sorted out the ins and outs of the whole thing, and his face appeared unprecedentedly solemn.
After pondering for a while, Gong Xuejun took out an ordinary brush and a piece of white paper from the storage ring, wrote on the paper in the middle of the clouds, and finally threw the paper with undried handwriting into the hands of the spies.
"Take this and hand it over to the second son, with his current location, he will soon be able to go to the trial ground of Yilou, and he can also go to the few people who survived to investigate, and pay close attention to the mysterious black-clothed people and the forces behind them that appear in the intelligence, I think they will hide deeper after this action, once they find something, they can't startle the snake, notify me immediately"
The spy who took the paper disappeared again, this time leaving and not coming back, but leaving the Qianyang county town through the gate of a county town.
Zhao family.
Zhao Fenglai, the head of the Zhao family, has two talented sons under his knees, namely Zhao Zhen and Zhao Xulun, who have not only made achievements in martial arts, but also in business.
It stands to reason that with such an excellent successor, Zhao Fenglai should be very relieved and happy, but everyone in Qianyang County knows that Zhao Zhen, the young master of the Zhao family, and Zhao Fenglai have always had an estrangement, but the incident that caused the two of them to be like this has become a taboo existence in Qianyang County, and ordinary people don't dare to mention it at all, nor dare to make any comments.
And the relationship between the two has reached a very bad point, so that Zhao Zhen has completely abandoned himself outside the Zhao family, and Zhao Fenglai also seemed to be more than ten years old overnight, becoming a declining appearance.
The reason for all this is in Zhao Fenglai's body, in the past, Zhao Fenglai and Xue Ru, the mother of the Zhao family, were in love like a fairy couple, and everyone knew it in Qianyang County, but because of this, after Zhao Fenglai made a drunken mistake, Xue Ru, who was angry, completely disappeared into Qianyang County when she was pregnant for ten months.
The remorseful Zhao Fenglai was white-headed overnight after not being able to find it, and he didn't drink until five years later, and he found Xue Ru, who was already ill, in a remote city, if it wasn't for the love token of the two sold for treatment at that time, Zhao Fenglai didn't know that his lover was about to die.
It's just that Zhao Fenglai made a mistake again at that time, that is, when he found their mother and son, he was worried that his condition would worsen, and he didn't think too much about taking him back to the Zhao family, so that he forgot Zhao Zhen's twin sister who went out to buy medicine, and he couldn't find it when he came back.
Although Xue Ru forgave Zhao Fenglai in the end, she also left the Zhao family after recovering and often accompanied the green lantern in a quiet place outside Qianyang County to pray for her daughter's safety.
Night.
The place where Xue Ru was located was an independent manor, and there were two figures walking in the courtyard of the manor at this time.
"Mother, it's your birthday in a month, and the child will give you a surprise then"
In the quiet, comfortable, elegant and quiet courtyard, the voice of a young man full of neutrality and majesty came out.
"That mother is waiting for that day to come"
Behind the man, there is a gentle, doting female voice, only mixed with deep concern.
The man seemed to know the reason, and just as he wanted to comfort him, he was interrupted by a voice outside the door, and there was a faint anger on his face.
"Didn't I say it, I don't want you to be here, get out of here"
"Zhen'er, don't blame them, I think they have something to do to show up here, you can put your things down and leave"
Xue Ru opened his mouth to stop Zhao Zhen's next move, looked at the spies who appeared at the gate of the courtyard, and with a flick of his sleeve, he took the information in his hand and handed it to Zhao Zhen.
"Anthracene! It's a big thing to happen in the county, it's really a big deal."
With the misty light, as Zhao Zhen watched, his originally plain face gradually became solemn, especially after seeing one of the names and place names, he showed a trace of excitement.
"Isn't that where we've lived for a few years?"
"Mother, this matter is too big, I need to arrange someone to confirm it as soon as possible, no, I should go myself, and ask my mother to forgive the child."
Zhao Zhen couldn't hide his excitement, but he couldn't jump to conclusions without fully confirming it, so he left here after saying hello to Xue Ru.
And although Xue Ru was puzzled by Zhao Zhen's reaction, he still knew his son very well, and only big things would make him so out of shape, so he just smiled and comforted him a few words, and sent him to the gate of the manor.
And Zhao Zhen also began to give orders, and rushed to Mocheng non-stop.
When the Gong family and the Zhao family found out the relevant information and started to act, the other two families in Qianyang County also took action.
An invisible storm is beginning to brew from Meuse, and may eventually engulf the entire Thousand Sunshine County.
