The grassland is further southeast, the southwest of the later construction, located at the intersection of the Central Plains, the later construction and the grassland, there is an ancient military town, called the giant deer, if you look down from the sky, the giant deer city just and the central capital, the north of the triangle seems to be the head of the gun, the giant deer city is just in the position of the tip of the gun, pointing directly to the grassland of the later construction.

This place was originally the capital of the Great Chu Dynasty, and then the Great Chu fell, and then the iron horse went south to enter the customs, and walked through most of the Central Plains, and the Julu City at the forefront was naturally not spared, becoming the first place to fall, and the Julu City that experienced the war was abandoned, even if the Emperor Taizu of Dazheng later established the country, Dazheng only stopped after recovering the northern capital, Julu City was like an abandoned child, and became a place where no one cares about the three families, making countless homeless, Jiangyang thieves, and even the powerful people who failed to fight for power, as well as the monks who betrayed the sect, The influx of scattered cultivators, the cement and sand of the river, and the mixing of fish and dragons, have created an outlaw city full of chaos and killing.

The chaotic situation here lasted until Emperor Xiao's Northern Expedition was built, Emperor Xiao and the general Murong Yan wanted to gather an army in Julu City, and washed away the muddy water in the city.

After Xiao Maha became the new king of Lingwu County, Julu City gradually transformed from a military town to a hub connecting the Central Plains, the grassland and the later construction, and countless caravans passed by, stayed and traded here, making Julu City have the name of "Saiwai Jiangnan", in terms of prosperity and wealth, although it is not as good as Jiangdu, but it is comparable to Jiangling and other places.

Being able to control a place alone, and such an important place, is really rare among many county kings, which can also be seen that Xiao Maha is now Jane in the emperor's heart, but in the past two years, Xiao Maha has begun to look a little old, and the matter of the next county king has to be put on the table.

/ See Rd genuine N chapter % section 1 | on) R

It is naturally His Majesty the Emperor who can make a final decision on this matter, but in the absence of special circumstances, His Majesty will not easily meddle in the family affairs of the clan vassal king, so it still depends on Xiao Maha himself.

Xiao Maha has two sons and two daughters, the two daughters are named county lords and have been married, and the eldest son Xiao Shilian died of illness a few years ago, leaving only one young son Xiao Shiluo, so two years ago, Xiao Maha officially wrote to the court, please set up the second son Xiao Shiluo, the court agreed, gave the crown, the letter, the edict, and established Xiao Shiliu as the prince of the county, equal to the duke of the country.

Xiao Shiluo's people, according to the generation, and Liangwu County Wang Xiao Qujian of the same generation, his grandfather Xiao Shu and Xiao Quji's grandfather Xiao Gongyu are both important ministers of the clan, the two have a deep friendship, in the 20 years of the Taiping Lan Han Party dispute, it was Xiao Shu and Xiao Gongyu who joined forces to suppress Han Xiong, Tang Chunyu and others, and were regarded as the right-hand man of the Queen Mother Lin Yinping, but in Xiao Shiluo's generation, one has lived in the Central Plains for a long time, and the other has lived outside the Saiwai for a long time, and the friendship is already weak.

Although it is still autumn, because Julu City is located outside the plug, a graceful little snow soft and timidly came unexpectedly, smearing a layer of light makeup on this ancient military town, making this "twilight old man" no longer so angular and slightly softer.

In the past, Julu City did not pay attention to the rules, but after the Xiao family occupied this place, they set rules for it, whether you are a grassland person or a later builder, as long as you enter Julu City, you must abide by the rules of my Julu City.

After two generations of Lingwu County King's perfection, the criminal law of Julu City is several times stricter than the criminal law of the Great Qi Imperial Court, and some people have counted that in the criminal law of Julu City, the word "death" appears as many as seventeen times, in other words, unless you have the strength of the Demon Suppression Hall Master or the Sword Sect Master, otherwise the end of unruly is a dead word.

Looking at today's Julu City, there are only two people who can disobey the rules, one is Xiao Maha, the king of Lingwu County in this generation, and the other is Xiao Shiluo, the prince of the county.

Seeing that Xiao Shiluo has become the third generation of the king of Lingwu County is already a sure thing, the power of His Royal Highness the prince is also greater day by day, raising guests and private troops is just idle, and he also has a lot of intersections with the powerful in the court, and he has followed his father into Beijing several times, and he is good at dancing with long sleeves, and he is very outstanding among the children of the clan, and it is rumored that the prince of the county has a very good relationship with the son of Duanmu Ruisheng, the governor of the palm seal of the Dark Guard Mansion, and is known as a brother in private.

It's just that with the beginning of Duanmu Ruisheng's fall from favor, Xiao Shiluo has also begun to gradually alienate Duanmu Yu, the world is hot and cold, and the people are warm and cold, but that's it.

Now the situation in the temple is gradually clear, the reason why Han Xuan was defeated back then, the Queen Mother Lin Yinping played a vital role, because Han Xuan has an excellent reputation among the people, so much so that later there was a so-called "black-hearted prime minister Wolong bed", this black-hearted prime minister said that the blue jade that knocked down Han Xuan.

Now that there is no Queen Mother, Lan Yu is gradually declining, and Han Xuan has the support of His Majesty today, and his momentum is like a rainbow, in this temple battle that is called "the second Blue Han Party Dispute" by the government and the opposition, Lan Xiangye retreated step by step, and does not seem to plan to fight to the death, after all, he has a master-apprentice relationship with His Majesty today, if he does not break the net of fish death, then His Majesty should also open the net and start and finish well with his teacher.

However, the blue party has been rooted in the temple for 50 years, and the tree has deep roots, if it is said that this blue Korean party struggle has ended, and Lan Yu will admit defeat, it is still too early. Since Xiao Maha is the confidant of His Majesty today, he naturally has to follow the will of the Shang, get close to Han Xuan, and alienate Lan Yu and Duanmu Ruisheng, Xiao Shiluo also had to cut off Duanmu Yu's line according to his father's wishes.

Soon after the city gate was opened, a team of men and horses galloped towards the direction of the city gate with a little residual snow on the ground, led by a young man in brocade clothes, with an extraordinary bearing, and he was accompanied by a woman in a white fur, with a delicate face and a cold expression, behind him were more than ten cavalrymen wearing armor and swords, carrying well-made bows and crossbows and quivers, the lineup was neat, and the spirit was fierce, it was by no means an ordinary private cavalry, but the most elite royal iron cavalry.

When the armor guards in front of the city gate saw this group of people, they did not dare to stop it in the slightest, and immediately let the door be opened and let it roar out of the city.

There is a nameless lake not far from the Julu City, purely in terms of scenery, it can only be regarded as acceptable, not to mention compared with many famous lakes in the south of the Yangtze River, it is far inferior to the Biluo Lake of the grassland, but this lake is the water source of the entire Julu City, so it is like a forbidden place on weekdays, guarded by heavy armor, and no one is allowed to approach.

Because of the light snow falling today, this small lake, which is nicknamed "Wanzi Lake", seems to be dressed in a white fur, but it has a bit of young lady style, and has a unique style, the team of people and horses went straight to this place after leaving the city, and stood on the shore of the lake not far from the horse.

The woman in the white fox fur looked at the vast white lake, her eyes were slightly confused, and she said softly: "I didn't expect there to be such scenery outside the plug." ”

The young man at the head turned his head to look at the woman, hid the eagerness in his eyes, and said with a smile: "If I'm not mistaken, the ancestor of the family once built a pavilion in the middle of the lake, would Fairy Yun be willing to go there?"

The woman glanced at the ironclad Sensen not far away and asked, "Is that okay?"

The man habitually buckled the jade belt around his waist, revealing a bit of arrogance in his confidence, and said with a smile: "For me, in the Giant Deer Realm, there is nothing that cannot be done. ”
