The Book of Troubled Times

He realized that it was impossible to dig out more information about Jianlu from Zhai Muzhi, and he didn't dare to ask him about Yue Hongling directly.

Then there's nothing to talk about... Zhao Changhe didn't socialize with Zhai Muzhi much, and excused himself that it was late and he had to catch up with the host, so he left after eating something casually.

The motorcade left slowly, and Zhai Muzhi smiled like a spring breeze and gave the gift there, with a look of great respect for King Langya, and when no one could see, his smile remained the same.

It's just that the shivering people beside him always make this scene inexplicably weird.

Xie Ruhai stood on the sidelines and didn't make a sound. He waited until the convoy had gone far before he whispered to Zhai Muzhi: "My lord, it seems that he was really sent to Miaojiang. This trip should really have nothing to do with us. But why did Li Si'an hang out with him? Does it need to be investigated?"

Zhai Muzhi shook his head and said: "A businessman like Li Si'an is unlikely to offend King Langya. He will basically not refuse to do something in the king's way. It is meaningless to investigate him, but it is a coincidence."

Xie Ruhai said: "Then what do we need to do to go to the southwest in the king's way?"

Zhai Muzhi pondered for a moment: "First of all, you have only met this person in the early years, so you may not be sure if it is true. Although you should be right in terms of demeanor, that kind of attitude that is used to seeing superiors is something most people can't pretend. Even Li Si'an, a rich man who sees officials, is unavoidable.

Xie Ruhai bowed and said, "Yes."

Zhai Muzhi said: "The affairs of the Wang family are full of strangeness. They shouldn't have shown their opposition so early. Secondly, they have already shown their opposition. Even the Cui and Yang families sent troops to suppress it, but His Majesty didn't say anything, and actually let the Wang Daozhong be released... It's clear that he has completely lost power and is controlled by the aristocratic family. I even wondered if this is His Majesty and the Wang family. Instead, the family cooperates with His Majesty to fight who."

This is a marketable judgment in Sichuan, and similar speculations did not happen overnight.

Xie Ruhai said: "Therefore Wang Daozhong came to the southwest, it is very likely that he came to tempt us... We just need to perfunctory, hello and me are fine?"

Zhai Muzhi showed a slight smile: "Let's wait and see... If the situation is right, maybe what we should do is capture Wang Daozhong and hand it over to Tang Wanzhuang... For a loyal minister like us, even if Tang Wanzhuang knows something, most likely he can only pinch his nose and close his eyes."

Xie Ruhai also laughed: "Don't look at what Zhenmagic is doing so-called slaying demons and demons, punishing rape and eradicating evil, after all, she is sitting on this country."

"Let me tell Sect Master Shi, his strength is just right for Wang Daozhong."

"That Yue Hongling..."

"Yue Hongling has a lot of experience in Jianghu. It's hard to find. You can take your time... After all, she is still hiding in Miaojiang. She doesn't even dare to show her face, let alone mention it... I want to see how long she can hide!"

…………

Zhao Changhe never thought that Wang Daozhong's status could cause disaster... The family members would not run around all over the world, so there are naturally reasons for them.

Coincidentally, this matter really has something to do with both Yue Hongling and Jianlu... If he had to choose again, he would still have to pretend to be king.

Lao Wang is really a lucky star.

But Zhao Changhe didn't know it at the moment. He left Shu County all the way, and rode side by side with Li Si'an on the road. When exchanging opinions, he felt that Zhai Muzhi's attitude was very normal.

"Normal family friendship, Wang Daozhong is here, he must show etiquette."

"Well, it's the upstart's attitude, it's a bit of a thing..." Zhao Changhe sucked his teeth painfully: "Just took a few bites, did I eat my income for a year... Oh no, I don't have a salary."

"Uh..." Li Si'an pondered for a while, and then said: "Actually, you are paid... You seem to be a secret agent of the Town Demon Division, and the rank is still very high, second only to the chief."

Zhao Changhe: "Where do I get the money? This is at least a year behind my salary."

Li Si'an looked at the road ahead without squinting: "If you receive a salary, you must recognize the boss as the first seat, are you sure?"

Zhao Changhe was overjoyed: "Is there such a good thing?"

Pervert or you pervert, Li Si'an rolled his eyes, didn't bother to talk about it with him, and said instead: "He doesn't necessarily have the attitude of a nouveau riche, but he is used to it, he always does this, and he also thinks that the Wang family and the Cui family do the same."

Zhao Changhe said: "How is his reputation as an official? I think the people's fear of him is down to the bone."

"It's extremely serious." Li Si'an said: "Don't talk about anything else, just a few months ago, the forced conscripts dug the canal in the winter, and I don't know how many people died, and the people of Sichuan were devastated. Reporting it to the imperial court is still a great benefit for the people's livelihood, and it is quite commendable."

Zhao Changhe was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked: "How is Shenhuangzong?"

Huangzong, the strongest sect god in the world, is located in Emei, Sichuan.

I don't know how these righteous and strong sects balance the behavior of the government. Will they cut off the heads of dog officials for their chivalry? From the current point of view, it seems to be in the same dust as the light, so it is called "right way". To put it bluntly, Gui Chen is similar to the Wang family.

With Situ Xiao's temperament, he probably couldn't stand this kind of thing. Since Yanmen left, he has never heard of Situ Xiao again. Maybe it has something to do with it? Self grounding or something like that, or going to a more remote place.

Li Si'an shook his head: "I don't know. The Shenhuang Sect is known as the number one sect in the world, but it is actually very low-key. Except for the direct disciple Situ Xiao who travels all over the world, I rarely hear about them."

"Why is it the same as Jian Hut, don't you communicate with others?"

"In the land of Bashu, most of the habits are like this..." Li Si'an said: "What's more, to Li Shentong, his township of Bailiao in the southwest will be more meaningful, and he will be less involved in the affairs of the middle land."

Zhao Changhe said: "Will we pass by Emei on this trip? I was entrusted by someone to bring something to Li Shentong, but there were too many things before, and I really couldn't go to such a far place. This time I came to Bashu, so I just happened to go and see him."

Li Si'an said: "It's been a few days, choose the Emei one. What did you bring?"

"A jug of wine."

Li Si'an: "?"

You have a lot of trouble here, and you still have the mind to give someone a pot of wine?

Zhao Changhe said: "I'm really ashamed, it's been dragging on for several months. To be honest, if I didn't go along the way this time, I might not even think about going there once, and I would probably wait until the return trip after the work is done... Sometimes when I think about it, when I first came out of the rivers and lakes, the spirit of running around for a thousand miles seems to have weakened unconsciously. It's better to be healthy."

Li Si'an smiled: "How do you know what's going on with Han Wubing today? The rivers and lakes make people grow old, and a lot of things weigh on them, who can be young forever."

Zhao Changhe's eyes were shining: "There is always a time when things are done. I also believe that today's Han Wubing is still Han Wubing."

Just saying that, a golden light suddenly appeared in the sky.

The two looked up in surprise, and a new chapter in the book of troubled times came down:

"April, Lixia."

"When Han Wubing was in Yanmen, he noticed that the Xuelou Assassin was inquiring about his friends' information. He searched thousands of miles, from winter to summer, searched for May, and spied on the Xuelou Assassin Yingshuang on the Jiange plank road. Before he could do his best, Yingshuang fled."

"The winners and losers of the list, the rankings are reversed."

"Thirty-three on the list, Han has no disease."

"I come to the banquet to bow to the breeze, and to swallow Changhong with a sense of loyalty."

PS: Some book friends reminded that Maitreya died in the list, and Zhai Muzhi should have been fourth.

The list changes in real time, my mind is messed up, it has been revised, thank you for catching bugs~ you can come more like this kind of catching bugs~
