He Lingchuan raised his glass and said to Du Shan: "What you said is so clear. Come on!" Du Shan also smiled, and the two of them raised their glasses and drank it up.
He Lingchuan simply called the waiters and said: "Bring five jars of Qinxiangchun and fill them for everyone. If five jars are not enough, bring in five more jars." All the students were overjoyed: "He Xiao is so generous!" Not everyone from the Imperial College has a good family background. , can afford Qinxiangchun for five taels of silver.
"After Prince Huan set a fire, the emperor called me and the prince to go to the heavenly palace to appease him." He Lingchuan threw a large silver ingot to the clerk, and he was full of heroic spirit.
"Why should I keep this pension? Why don't I treat everyone to a drink today!" Everyone smiled. Zheng Zewu, Gao Jilin and Du Shan frowned.
The emperor is usually at the Lingxiao Palace on Tianxin Island, so why would he recruit Chiyan people to go to the Heavenly Palace to appease him? Is there something involving the gods involved here?
The water is so deep. This time, everyone was having a drink at Xiangmanlou until the sun set, and then they decided to take advantage of the opportunity to return. He Lingchuan went to settle the bill. Before he even took out his wallet, the shopkeeper smiled broadly and said, "No need, Mr. He. Mr. Fang from Dunyuan just paid the bill." He Lingchuan said curiously: "He has left long ago. We He just drank so much wine, how did he pay the bill?"
"Manager Fang often entertains guests here, and the accounts are usually settled every month." Being rich is different. They drank at least thirteen jars of wine just now, which is sixty-five taels of silver, sixty-five thousand dollars!
In comparison, Caijin is not worth mentioning.
"Mr. Fang is really particular about people." He Lingchuan knew that Fang Canran was trying to show him face in front of the Tai students.
He was not pretentious, he patted his sleeves and was about to leave when the shopkeeper lowered his voice and said, "Manager Fang also left a note for you." After that, he handed over a note.
The Tongxin Guards were blocked by He Lingchuan's back, and their hand movements could not be seen clearly. He Lingchuan quickly took the note and threw it into the storage ring. He laughed and said, "I'm sorry, let's go."￥￥￥￥￥It was night, with the moon above the sky.
He Lingchuan sneaked to the back of Pianxiang Villa. Tall, dense fir bushes grew into a tight wall of trees.
He walked through the wall of trees and touched a real wall. This wall is the dividing line between Pianxiang Villa and the neighbor's house next door.
Someone has always lived next door. The head of the household is named Shi, and he is also an official in the royal court. Tonight, his house was brightly lit, and there were often voices, as if a banquet was being held.
There was a small turret on the wall, which was built for viewing. He Lingchuan saw someone waving to him inside.
Fang Canran. He jumped over in two steps and found that there was a low stool in the pavilion.
"Why did Mr. Fang invite me to a place like this?" It was dark, secluded and inaccessible.
"I'm a guest at Shi's house tonight, so I'd like to have a chat with you." Fang Canran smacked his chin in the direction of the main building, and laughter followed the wind. It sounded like both the host and the guest were happy.
"There are so many glasses of wine there that no one will notice me for the time being." He took out another rectangular mirror and said, "The heart-piercing mirror has been repaired and can be used as usual." After that, he taught He Lingchuan the usage formula and explained its usage.
This was one of his apology to He Lingchuan. He Lingchuan accepted it, memorized it carefully, and then sat down: "What else do you want to talk about?" Fang Canran casually put up a barrier to prevent the voice from leaking: "娨玨 Ju." He Lingchuan was stunned and looked at him from above. Look down.
The other party came to your door in the middle of the night and actually wanted to talk about the mountains and swamps of Xushan Mountain?
"Are you really that surprised?" Fang Canran said,
"Didn't you already know what I was going to say?" He Lingchuan blinked: "What?" It is indeed difficult to talk about things based on the lack of integrity on both sides.
Fang Canran had no choice but to make it clear: "娨Ju asked me for some information, saying that someone wanted to use it."
"Oh——" He Lingchuan suddenly realized,
"It turns out it's you." In fact, He Lingchuan had already guessed that this was the case when he received the note from the restaurant owner in the afternoon.
It doesn't require much rational analysis, it's just intuitive. Fang Canran has big plans in Lingxu City, and he should be indispensable for this kind of excitement.
"How did you know you were looking for me?" He Lingchuan asked him,
"Xu Ju probably didn't see my face."
"I'm not sure." Fang Canran smiled,
"But I think I can give it a try directly with you. After all, you are the only one who has mentioned the Torch to me recently. Ha, isn't it confirmed now?" The two looked at each other and suddenly laughed.
Okay, let's be deceitful. This time Fang Canran had the upper hand. Although the two of them had made a contract with the oath chain before, neither one of them was willing to reveal their mission in Lingxu City.
Now Juju is in the middle and accidentally pierced the window paper. Fang Canran knew that He Lingchuan came to Lingxu City to cause sabotage, and He Lingchuan knew that Fang Canran had secret contacts with Juju and was not well-intentioned. This violated the taboo of the Heavenly Palace.
After confirming a common strong enemy, the relationship between the two parties suddenly became closer. Fang Canran put away his smile,
"What do you want to do?" He Lingchuan leaned on the pillar and said leisurely: "I want to give the Tiangong a big gift." Panlong City was destroyed in the past. On the surface, it was the Xianyou and Baling coalition forces, but He Lingchuan had already seen clearly. , the main driving force behind the scenes is Bega.
For him, who inherited the three-piece set of divine bones and the legacy of Panlong, this was an old grudge. When he first entered the spiritual void, he came to do practical things and good things for the vast number of demon people in Bejia. As a result, the gods invaded his sea of consciousness without any explanation, and a divine soul judgment came.
For him, it was a new revenge. It’s not that I won’t report it, the time has not yet come. But he will definitely find the most suitable time.
Even if the old and new grudges cannot be repaid at once, they must at least be settled in batches! Let’s start with the first liquidation by sending a big gift to Tiangong.
Fang Canran was puzzled: "Big gift?"
"How about a lively and free Juju?" Fang Canran looked at him for a long time to confirm that he was not joking, then shook his head: "You are trying to commit suicide." He understood, this person actually wanted to be in the Heavenly Palace Destroy the spirit gathering formation right under your nose and release the Torch.
This has been Diaju's wish for many years. Although Fang Canran has been on the line with it for a long time, he has never dared to actually implement it.
If he hadn't fought against He Lingchuan, he would probably have doubted whether this kid was really crazy or pretending to be stupid. He Lingchuan touched his nose.
"How do you want me to cooperate?" Fang Canran asked again,
"The Juju is very suspicious. It took me several years to get close to it before I got its clone. You only went there once?"
"Yes." There was a wild cat wandering underneath. He Lingchuan threw a pebble down, and the cat ran away with a puff of smoke.
"娨Ju has an old friend. I went there with his token. It was a shortcut."
"Let me say it first, I can cooperate, but you have to handle your important matters yourself." Fang Canran raised a finger and shook it.
"Don't drag me into this."
"Don't worry, I only buy things and get information from you. I don't need you to act with me." This was settled.
"Then let me give you some information first." Fang Canran said,
"I got a figure here. In the past seven years, Tiangong has purchased 50,000 kilograms of meat every month."
"Fifty thousand catties?" He Lingchuan was startled,
"How many people are there in Heavenly Palace?"
"In addition to a few leaders, there are seventy-two lamp keepers, four hundred divine attendants, nine hundred Heavenly Palace guards, and one thousand eight hundred Xushan guards. In addition, there are eight hundred handymen." Fang Canran was very familiar with these numbers. Understand it in your heart,
"The total is less than four thousand and one. The total number fluctuates occasionally, but it's pretty much the same."
"Forty thousand people consume 50,000 kilograms of meat every month?" He Lingchuan counted with his fingers.
"Twelve kilograms per person per month, four taels per day, oh, this food is great." Fang Canran smiled, knowing that he was sarcastic: "Have you seen how many servants eat meat every day? They are the gods. And the guards don't have such a high quota." The more than two thousand people are just garrison troops. They don't fight and don't train. How can there be such a high consumption?
He Lingchuan remembered that the common people in the capital city of Yuan Kingdom could only eat meat once every thirty days; in comparison, even the people in Lingxu City did not have the opportunity to eat meat every day.
To take a step back, even if the Heavenly Palace treats everyone equally and everyone has good food, then if each person counts three taels of meat per day, they will only eat more than 36,000 kilograms per month. Where is the more than 10,000 kilograms?
Fang Canran then added: "And among the meat purchased by Tiangong, many additional hooves, tails and heads of cattle, sheep, donkeys and horses are purchased. Do you think this is normal food?"
"It's not for Ju Ju." The Fire Spirit doesn't like blood food at all, so he can just rule it out. He Lingchuan rubbed his chin and thought for a while.
"Maybe some of the monsters in the Shoutian Palace like to chew their heads and claws." Just like he likes to eat duck neck and chicken feet, the premise is that they are well smoked and marinated.
"But you're right. I'm afraid I bought these leftover materials for other purposes. Maybe the buyers from Tiangong will use inferior ones to pass off as good ones and line their own pockets."
"Anyway, I told you." Fang Canran looked at him and said,
"Xu Mountain is heavily defended. In the past, so many experts tried to sneak in and sabotage, but they all failed. Qiu Ju knew this, but he still thought you could give it a try... What do you have to rely on?" This is back to the topic: "Ju Ling The formation is the foundation of Xushan. I have a way to shake it. All I need to do is find its formation eye." Fang Canran shook his head: "The formation eye is usually hidden in the void. Unless you walk directly from the Star Reaching Tower to the teleportation array, no one can find it. .”
"No, it is hanging over the Xu Mountain now. It only blocks the perception of all sentient beings. Even Juju can't see it."
"you sure?"
"I'm not sure, I have to find a chance to give it a try." The plan must be carried out step by step.
"This is the premise for our actions."
"Is the role of Ju Ju important?"
"It's very heavy." He Lingchuan said seriously,
"Without its great power, I can't change the world by myself."
"Its clone isn't here right now, is it?" He Lingchuan shook his head. Fang Canran then took out a pair of shackles from his arms and handed them to He Lingchuan: "The oath chains you asked for are the last ones in my hand." How to make the Juju carry out the agreement to the letter is what He Lingchuan has been thinking about recently. Things have also been decided on a few things.
But none are as simple and straightforward as the Vow Chain.
"I have seen that Juju has deceived others, and I cannot make the same mistake again. Your choice is wise."
