"sure!"
Completely as expected by Zhao Yan, Cheng Lingsu agreed to his request without hesitation.
Even if she doesn't even know if this method is feasible or not.
But if we really want to talk about who trusts more between the two, it is obviously Zhao Yan.
After all, what he gave out was a unique treasure in the entire Kyushu.
It is impossible for the smart Cheng Lingsu not to understand the absolute trust contained in this.
The meaning of this sentence is not just literal.
As long as it is a request made by Zhao Yan, she will do her best to fulfill it.
Not to mention that this request is actually not too much to say.
With such rare items as the "Shen Nong Ruler", if she fails to fulfill Zhao Yan's request, it's time for her to reflect on herself...
"Very good, I'm absolutely trusting to leave it to you, so I'll leave it to you..."
"And that girl outside, that mink, you have to worry about it too."
For this ill-fated girl, Zhao Yan still felt a little sorry for his behavior of abandoning the shopkeeper.
But for your own freedom, occasional cruelty is still necessary.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will take good care of them."
"Well, I'll be sure to rest assured when you do what you do."
Zhao Yan nodded and said.
Just this sentence...
He seemed to say this to everyone.
There was really no one in the palace that made him worried.
Perhaps the person who is most uneasy is himself.
After bidding farewell to Cheng Lingsu, Zhao Yan told Xiao Longnu a few words and left the pharmacy.
In the next few days, he had to arrange the accommodation for the three Tomb Sect members and the opening mode of Tingchao Pavilion's secrets.
It is impossible to send all the top secrets to them as soon as they arrive, as that would not be good for their cultivation at this level.
But Zhao Yan doesn't need to worry about these things. As long as they are arranged by Ren Yingying, she will naturally take care of them.
Thinking of this, Zhao Yan couldn't help but sigh. As long as the shortcomings in top-level combat power were filled, the structure of Prince Qi's Mansion would be perfect.
The only surprise now is what kind of surprise the "Dead Leaves" under Xiang Feiliu's control can bring him.
According to his current actions, he should be gathering those old "dead leaves" that can be won over.
When scattered, it is a sky full of stars; when gathered, it is a ball of fire.
These people have been scattered for eight years, and now most of them have become powerful and powerful people.
Like Ma Yun from Juncheng, he seems to be just a horse seller.
But in horse trading, there is actually a lot of room for intelligence gathering.
With his help, at least there will be more room for improvement in intelligence work.
As long as Xiang Feiliu can gather enough old troops back, it can almost be said that he has built another Xiaoyu Tower outside the palace.
But this guy...
Where are you now?
Today's world of Jiuzhou is not peaceful, and the news of the emergence of two kinds of magic weapons will soon spread.
Once he encounters a monster holding a demon weapon, it will be difficult for him to be an opponent.
It's useless to just worry. The two of them are thousands of miles apart, so it's not that easy to send news.
Zhao Yan thought about it and decided to try his best to convey the news about the two magic weapons to him.
……
……
……
Xiang Feiliu is not as dangerous as Zhao Yan imagined.
On the contrary, he is living a good life now, quite leisurely.
This was his first time to set foot in Luoyang, one of the largest cities in the world, but he didn't feel unfamiliar at all.
Because compared to Kaifeng, which has a very strong commercial atmosphere, Luoyang still has a more relaxed atmosphere.
He has been here for three days. In addition to having a drink at the "Jingdong" horse and carriage shop at scheduled times every day, he basically wanders around the city.
For example, today, Xiang Feiliu still takes Geng Yujing to play in the city.
"When the prince first advised the late emperor to pay attention to merchants and open up business operations, many people in the court opposed it, lamenting that the emphasis on business would lead to the demise of the Song Dynasty..."
"But now after so many years, it is enough to prove how unique the prince's vision is."
"Otherwise, with Kaifeng's foundation, it is absolutely impossible to surpass Luoyang, the divine capital, in just a dozen years."
After coming out of Nanshi, Xiang Feiluo said with emotion that he already knew most of the items in the market.
Behind him, Geng Yujing also nodded thoughtfully.
Following Xiang Feiliu around Kyushu these days, he is no longer the little Taoist priest who just came down from Wudang Mountain and knows nothing.
The improvement of his realm gave him more confidence, and the growth of his knowledge gave him a completely new temperament.
"It's just that Luoyang City looks more noble than Kaifeng after all. The clothes and manners of the residents in the city are more confident and elegant than those in Kaifeng."
After three days of watching, Geng Yujing also has some opinions of his own.
"That's natural. Luoyang is located in the heart of the Tang Dynasty. It has never suffered from war in the past hundred years, and the quality of its people is also higher."
"Unlike our Kaifeng, which is located in the northwest, with the Ming and Xixia to the south, the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties to the north, and the Qing to the northeast, and half of it is surrounded by powerful enemies."
"It was only after the armistice and the opening of commerce under the prince's persuasion that the city became the giant city it is today."
"It's just that if Xiaoyulou hadn't secretly manipulated all this, this huge city of Kaifeng would have been penetrated by spies from all over the world."
Xiang Feiliu's tone was filled with gratitude.
It can be heard that he admires Xiaoyulou very much.
Being away from Da Song, he seemed to have become a lot more talkative.
Geng Yujing asked with some confusion.
"Why haven't you ever tried to gain control of Xiaoyulou? With the love I had at the beginning, I think if you had fought for it, you wouldn't be as tired as you are now."
From the first time he saw Xiang Feiliu, he could tell how much pressure this tall man was carrying.
But he never once expressed his fatigue or dissatisfaction.
Each song is based on its own ideas to achieve its goals step by step.
But in fact, he clearly has an easier path...
This is a man who has shortcuts but doesn't even look at them.
"mutual affection…"
"If you don't use it, it's called affection. If you use it, it's called a write-off."
"Do you think that the carriage and horse racing company would have changed its name to 'Jingdong' without any instructions from the original poster?"
"But I didn't make any requests. I just mentioned to Ren that I planned to go to Datang to talk to Li Fu, and she arranged everything for us."
"What you can see here is the relationship between me and Xiaoyulou."
Xiang Feiliu pointed out carefully.
Although this little Taoist priest has been in the secular world for a while, he seems to be somewhat shrewd.
But in many details, it still lacks perfection.
Some shortcuts look tempting, but lead to dead ends.
It's better to take a path where you can't see the way ahead temporarily. Once you step out, the road ahead will become easier and easier.
Geng Yujing seemed to understand what he said and pursed his lips knowingly.
Just like why the master had to transfer part of his energy to Ban He...
This is the relationship between Wudang Mountain and Prince Qi’s Mansion!
With this affection, he can be treated as one of his own without any hindrance in Prince Qi's palace.
"But can these feelings never be repaid?"
Geng Yujing thought for a while, but was still a little confused.
After all, Xiaoyulou provided a lot of help to the two of them along the way.
Although there is a sentimental basis, what if the poster Ren feels that he has paid off?
Xiang Feiliu glanced sideways at him expressionlessly.
"Elm head..."
"Can you clearly distinguish the relationship between you and your master?"
"With the foundation of love, both parties can upgrade to become partners, friends and confidants..."
"The owner of the building misses me so much, and I appreciate her taking over and expanding the Xiaoyu Building. Why can't you understand the things here?"
When Xiaoyu Tower was handed over to Guyu, although the foundation was laid, it was not as terrifying as it is now.
Ren Yingying has been running the business for many years. She has not only preserved the foundation of Xiaoyulou, but also managed it in such a colorful way. Xiang Feiliu not only admires it, but also feels deeply grateful.
You must know that it is really difficult for others to control such a huge organization like Xiaoyu Tower to such a perfect level.
When Zhao Yan decided to recall "Dead Leaves", Xiang Feiliu's proactive concession and subsequent clarification of the relationship also allowed Ren Yingying to go from being defensive at the beginning to actively cooperating now.
It was after a period of invisible and tacit exchanges between the two that they achieved the mutual success they have today.
This relies on affection, but it is more than just affection.
"If you had said this earlier, I would have understood!"
Geng Yujing was a little ashamed after being told this, and scratched his head to show that he finally understood.
But for the curious baby, he soon had a new problem.
"But what about that 'Nine Heavens' Li Fu?"
"How do you know he will definitely come to see you?"
"And why do we have to let Prince Qi see the old members we discussed along the way?"
Xiang Feiliu slapped his forehead in frustration.
If I had known earlier I wouldn't have spoken.
These days, I have been observing in silence all the way, which is quite good and comfortable.
If you can't stop talking now, aren't you asking for trouble?
But who made him like this little Taoist priest very much...
"Let the prince have the opportunity to meet them so that there will be no misunderstanding between each other in the future."
"We, 'Withered Leaf' and Xiaoyu Tower, are indistinguishable from each other. If the prince is not allowed to see them, how can Lord Ren let down his guard against them?"
"As for Li Fu..."
Xiang Feiliu paused, stopped, turned around and walked back.
"It's almost time to arrive."
"Really? How do you know he will definitely come?"
Geng Yujing quickly caught up and asked the annoying repetitive questions again.
But Xiang Fei Liu explained it in more detail.
"It's also because of affection."
"Is it love again??"
"The family relationship with my sister, the relationship with my brother, the complicated and unspeakable relationship with the prince... so many emotions are intertwined. As long as he gets the news about this horse and carriage shop, he will never stop coming."
"is that so……"
"That's not all. He is a suspicious and jealous person by nature. When a carriage house changes its name, he wants to check all the carriage houses. Of course, he can't afford such a big project, so it is easiest and most appropriate to come to me for confirmation. method."
"Then how did he know it was you?"
"He doesn't need to know. I've told him in many details that the person who comes will only be high-ranking and not low-ranking."
"oh……"
Geng Yujing let out a confused sound.
I really didn't realize where the details were revealed.
"But... what if he refuses to return to 'Dead Leaves', or doesn't want to cooperate with you?"
"With the bait from Lingyun Cave, it would be best if he agrees. If he doesn't agree, then 'Nine Heavens' will be destroyed."
Xiang Feiliu replied calmly, but what he said was shocking.
The Lingyun Cave, which is regarded as the biggest secret in the mouth of An Long, the leader of Tianlian Sect...
He actually knew it a long time ago and set it as bait?
He even used treasure troves of strange caves such as Lingyun Cave as bait...
How big of a plan should this be?
"Is there really Lingyun Cave?"
Geng Yujing also felt unbelievable.
He had never heard of this place before, but he heard Xiang Fei Liu talk about it more than once along the way.
"Whether there is or not depends on whether you believe it or not."
"My sister's plan eight years ago was only given the chance to be implemented today..."
"I can't wait any longer."
Xiang Feiliu's face showed an extremely rare look of enthusiasm, and then it disappeared in a flash.
"But with the strength of both of us, I'm afraid it's too much..."
"It is said that there are two land gods in the Nine Heavens alone, and there are also several other masters of the celestial realm..."
"Even if we deceive them into Lingyun's fake cave, how can we destroy the enemy?"
From their words, the two learned that the secret of Lingyun Cave...
It turned out to be fake.
Fortunately, no one in Luoyang City paid attention to the two of them, otherwise if such secrets were revealed, there would at least be an uproar.
"You don't need to worry about this."
"After meeting Li Fu, it's time for us to leave. If we stay any longer, we might attract the attention of bad people."
As he spoke, Xiang Fei Liu raised his hand and raised a finger in front of his eyes.
"Shut up now!"
"oh……"
Geng Yujing responded quietly, finally degenerating from a curious baby into a mute.
The two returned to their taciturn mode again and strolled slowly back to the "Jingdong" horse and carriage store.
But when the two of them returned to the door of the carriage and horse shop, the carriage and horse racing shop, which had been a prosperous business in the past, was actually deserted and there was no one there.
All unusual actions indicate that something has happened here.
Geng Yujing's aura immediately changed, and the Zhenwu sword on his back was instantly ready to go.
Regardless of whether the person coming is the person they are waiting for.
It's always good to be ready for a fight.
But compared to him who was inexperienced, Xiang Feiliu was much calmer.
He just slightly flipped his wrists and pinned them on both sides of his thighs. It seemed like a random action, but in fact he had made all the pre-emptive moves to deal with the enemy.
The two of them walked without stopping for a moment, walking seemingly slowly but actually quickly into the courtyard where the carriages and horses were housed.
The courtyard was also cleared, but both of them could sense that there were dozens of masters lying in wait behind the courtyard wall, waiting for an opportunity.
"Who am I to lure me to your door in this way?"
"It's actually you..."
"You clearly know that I hate the capital the most!"
Under the eaves of the carriage hall, Li Fu could barely maintain his emotions at first, but at the end of his words, the veins on his forehead suddenly jumped, and the sharp fan in his hand was shot without leaving any trace, and he shot Xiang Feiliu as fast as lightning. .
The latter's expression remained unchanged, and the sword on his waist was unsheathed!
The light of the sword and the shadow of the fan intersect.
