In Changsun Wuji's mansion, Changsun Wuji was sitting on the throne with a gloomy look on his face. Standing in front of him was an old man with a not-so-good-looking face.
"You mean you were ambushed? Chang Long was arrested?" Changsun Wuji said coldly.
"That's right, we fell into that kid's trap, and there were actually five masters of the True Yuan Realm besieging us. If I hadn't been so frightened that I wouldn't have been able to come back! But Lao Chang was in trouble!" The old man gritted his teeth.
"Five? Where did this kid get so many masters? This is impossible!" Changsun Wuji questioned.
"It's not that guy, it's Li Junxian. We were ambushed by Li Junxian. That guy was a bait. The two of them teamed up to set a trap for us and set the game!!!" The old man said unwillingly.
"Li Junxian? Okay, that's great. He came back with revenge so quickly. What a good plan!" Changsun Wuji's eyes flashed coldly, but there was no expression on his face. If anyone knew him well, You know, Changsun Wuji is already furious.
"You go down and rest first, I will take care of this matter!" Changsun Wuji waved his hand.
"Okay, I'm going to have a rest first. You can do the usual things and try to rescue him as soon as possible. If you want help, just call me!" The old man said and retreated.
After he left, a middle-aged man in Taoist robes walked out of the screen behind Changsun Wuji, holding a whisk in his hand. It seemed like that.
"I'll leave this matter to you to investigate. You must find Chang Long's whereabouts. You can't let him fall into Li Junxian's hands. If you can't go against it, kill him!!!" Changsun Wuji said fiercely.
The man in Taoist robes walked out of the house without saying a word and disappeared without a trace.
Luo Zhang didn't know the situation at Changsun Wuji. Now that he had arrived in Lantian County, he naturally went to his fiefdom to take a look. Fortunately, everything was normal. With the funds in place, the progress of the construction was better than expected. Luo Zhang was very satisfied with this and rewarded Du Jin and Dajiang.
This made the two of them extremely excited, and they patted their chests to ensure that nothing would go wrong.
Two days passed by in a flash. Luo Zhang didn't go anywhere these two days. He stayed at home. Even if he ate corn, he always cooked it. The taste was very good. It was a different flavor compared to roasting it. .
Naturally, his cultivation level has also improved. Although he has not reached the third level of Qi Sensing Realm, he is getting close to it.
But in the past two days, there was no movement from Changsun Wuji. I wonder what he was planning. Not only was there no movement from him, there was no news from Li Junxian either.
In this regard, Luo Zhang did not ask any more questions. He had already done a lot, and there was nothing he could do about the rest. After all, he was just a son of Lantian County, and even his official position was only a civilian director of the Dockyard Department. Unlike Changsun Wuji, There is a huge gap. People are not serious about him. If they really want to deal with him with all their strength, it would be good if he can protect himself with his strength. How can he dare to get involved in this matter.
Moreover, the imperial examination will be held tomorrow, and Luo Zhang also needs to prepare. Although he can't understand those things, there is nothing he can do. Isn't this just a matter of sharpening one's skills before the battle? If he doesn't get into the top three, His Majesty will not bypass it. his.
When I think of the imperial examination, I can't help but think of the Gao Yang I saw on the day of the martial arts competition. The Gao Yang I saw before was all domineering and domineering, but the Gao Yang I saw that day had a shy face and looked very shy. This appearance made Luo Zhang feel novel. He didn't expect Gao Yang to have such a side.
"Mad, why did I think of her? This woman is a licentious woman. Don't miss her, otherwise you will be cuckolded and not be laughed to death!" Luo Zhang shook his head and said.
At this time, Mei Niang walked into the room and told him that Zhao Tianhu was coming, and Luo Zhang's eyes lit up.
When he came to the hall, he saw Zhao Tianhu standing there waiting for him respectfully without sitting down.
Luo Zhang patted Zhao Tianhu on the shoulder and said: "Sit down, sit down quickly, come to me today. Have you finished the task assigned to you?"
"Haha, I can't hide anything from you, little brother. I have already found the store and bought it. I spent 8,000 taels of silver. I found the store exactly as I asked. The storefront is ten meters long and has two floors. , it only needs to be renovated and decorated before it can be opened, and the craftsman who made the furniture has also made a yard and lived in it. Now he has made some tables and chairs. You told me before that I will tell you if it is ready. Tell me, I came here today just to tell my little brother." Zhao Tianhu explained.
"Not bad, really good. Ask King Wei who you want to give the furniture to. Tables are sold for 300 taels each and chairs for 50 taels each. Tell King Wei of the price and he will tell you where to send the furniture. Just send it wherever you want, don't ask any more questions!" Luo Zhang instructed.
"I know, brother, I'll take care of it later. I wonder if I have any other instructions?" Zhao Tianhu said with a smile.
"It's nothing. You take these things back and practice well if you have nothing to do. Got it?" Luo Zhang said, throwing out a bag and putting it on the table.
Zhao Tianhu picked up the bag and took a look, his eyes suddenly lit up. The bag contained the beef tendon that Luo Zhang had given him a few days ago. Although eating the beef tendon would make him very painful, the effect was real. Yes, after he ate two skewers, two meridians opened up, which was much faster than his hard work in practice.
Now that Luo Zhang had given him beef ribs again, how could this not make Zhao Tianhu extremely excited? He thanked Luo Zhang profusely and expressed his loyalty.
In this regard, Luo Zhang just smiled. If you want someone to do things for you, you must give them a sweetener. Otherwise, as time goes by, your loyalty will slowly change. Although he is not afraid of Zhao Tianhu changing his mind, he must take precautions after all.
Who knows if Changsun Wuji will take action against his people.
After talking about the business, Luo Zhang took a sip of tea and said: "These days, is there anything going on with Changsun Wuji?"
Zhao Tianhu carefully put away the things and then replied: "No, I sent someone to follow him secretly. Every day, apart from going to the morning court, he goes to Menxia Province to handle official business, and then returns to the house without any movement."
Luo Zhang frowned slightly and continued to ask: "What about the Secret Intelligence Department?"
Zhao Tianhu shook his head again and said: "My people there don't dare to get too close, but from a distance it seems to be the same as before, and there is not much movement."
"Okay, I get it, keep watching me, don't expose yourself, let me know if anything happens, and you can go back first!"
"Yes, little brother, I'm going back now. If you need anything, just say hello. I'll be right there!" Zhao Tianhu said happily while holding the beef ribs.
Looking at Zhao Tianhu's leaving figure, Luo Zhang's brows never relaxed. What is Li Junxian doing? Why has there been no movement for two days? It shouldn't be.
It’s just that there was no movement from Li Junxian’s side. Why was there no movement from this old dog? Is he that calm and angry? He was a master of the True Yuan Realm, and he just gave up like that?
Luo Zhang couldn't figure it out and didn't bother to think about it anymore. He continued to get into the room and study those things.
Chang'an City has been very lively these days. People are constantly pouring into Chang'an City. Most of these people are students and beauties from all over the country, for the imperial examination that takes place every three years.
This caused the city of Chang'an to be overcrowded, and restaurants everywhere were even more lively. People had to queue up to find a table.
But this is only for ordinary people, and there is no such problem for those big shots or rich people.
In a private room on the third floor of Yanlai Building, Dou Huaian, the owner of this place, was entertaining his guests.
It was not easy for Dou Huaian to entertain guests. Only those with equal strength or higher status than him were worthy of him to entertain.
The person he entertained today was an old acquaintance of Luo Zhang, Changsun Chong. Perhaps because he was feeling better or wanted to go out and walk around, he actually came to Yan Lailou.
"Master Chong came here today just to have some fun? Do you want me to find some new tea for Master Chong to try?" Dou Huaian said tentatively. After all, there were rumors that Changsun Chong was deposed by Luo Zhang and became an eunuch. I don't know. Is it true or not? You know, before Changsun Chong came here he was all about girls, but today he didn't call her a girl. This is very abnormal.
Hearing Dou Huai'an's words, Changsun Chong showed no expression on his face, but his heart was bleeding. He hated Luo Zhang and cursed Dou Huai'an in front of him bloody.
For him, who had never been unhappy with a woman, these days were extremely painful. He couldn't seem to eat. Who could understand that kind of pain?
But he couldn't tell others about this kind of thing, so he could only bear it silently. At the same time, he kept looking for ways to cure the problem there, hoping to cure it and let him regain his life, but this was not that easy. Luo Zhang shot that place twice.
