"Your Majesty, is there any conclusive evidence for this? Or is it just a rumor?"
Chu Zhan asked after thinking for a while.
If there is evidence, that is indeed a bad sign.
If there is no evidence, it can prove that this rumor is just something people talk about after dinner.
There will also be many rumors in the Tang Dynasty. For example, someone saw the Shushan Wine and Sword Immortal, and "indescribable" things happened to him.
The specific reason why it is said to be indescribable is that the content is very colorful and the whole body is oily and yellow...
Others said that in a remote village, a demon wearing armor appeared, but he was killed by a newborn baby with a palm.
What's more, some people claim that they have seen a fairy in the sky and gave birth to seven children with the fairy. The seven children turned into seven gourds after they were born.
Anyway, there are all kinds of rumors.
As long as you can't think of it, there is nothing that people can't spread.
"There is no evidence for this."
"According to the people on the outskirts of the desert in the Western Region, the image of the demon circling the starry sky appeared for ten breaths and then disappeared."
Tang Chen thought for a while and shook his head.
"Your Majesty, then this is probably just a rumor for entertainment."
"Now that the righteous path has strong men like Shushan Wine and Sword Immortal, how could a demon come out to cause trouble?"
Chu Zhan smiled, obviously not taking this kind of thing seriously.
"Master Chu, having said that, the rumors are quite intense this time, especially in the Western Regions. The rumors are particularly mysterious. Some people from the Western Regions even came and moved to the Tang Dynasty and the Southern Song Dynasty."
"We in the Tang Dynasty cannot ignore this matter."
Chu Zheng took out the latest information and then told the situation.
"Huh? Is it that serious?"
"Yes, Mr. Chu, please take a look."
Chu Zheng handed the information he obtained to Chu Zhan.
Chu Zhan took a few glances and discovered that many people from the Western Regions had recently arrived in the Tang Dynasty's counties and cities.
"Master Chu, after hearing what you said, I really should pay attention to it."
"Your Majesty, our Tang Dynasty should have spies in the Western Regions. Why don't we let those spies go spy on the situation?"
Chu Zhan suggested after pondering for a moment.
Even though the Tang Dynasty had never fought with the Western Regions, this does not mean that the Tang Dynasty did not have spies in the Western Regions.
In fact, whether the Tang Dynasty had spies in the Western Regions, there were spies even in the Southern Song Dynasty.
Just because you don't fight doesn't mean that others won't fight. Naturally, you have to guard against this kind of thing.
Of course, Chu Zhan believed that the Western Regions and Southern Song Dynasty must also have spies on the Tang Dynasty, just like the Eastern Han Dynasty had spies on the Tang Dynasty.
They say people’s hearts are unpredictable, let alone a country.
"Okay, Chu Zheng, later you will ask the spies from the Western Regions to find out the information about the demon appearing deep in the desert of the Western Regions."
Tang Chen looked at Chu Zheng and ordered.
"Yes, I will take care of this matter later."
Chu Zheng nodded in response.
Soon, Chu Zhan left the palace and returned to the Yushi Mansion after chatting with Tang Chen and Chu Zheng.
…
And at this time.
Western Region, Royal Palace.
"Your Majesty Khan, this is the information obtained from various tribes in recent days."
In the middle of the hall, there sat a man with a majestic face and a stubble on his face.
This man is the supreme ruler of the Western Regions, Khan, Meng Ge Khan!
"Um."
Meng Gehan nodded slightly, and then began to look through the information collected from various tribes on the table.
When Meng Gehan was halfway through the page, he frowned.
"Huh? A demonic shadow appeared in the starry sky deep in the desert of my Western Region?"
"There are rumors that a big devil is about to be born?"
"What's going on? Do you know the specific information?"
Meng Gehan put down the information in his hand and looked at Sima Wei who sent him the information.
Because a lot of information is collected from various tribes every day, the general information will not write down the specific reasons, but will only record the results.
"Back to Khan, just a few days ago, someone witnessed a demonic shadow appearing deep in the desert. As for the evidence, they said that the demonic shadow only appeared for a moment, so there is no evidence for the time being."
Sima Wei replied.
"No evidence? That's just a rumor!"
"We have strong soldiers and countless masters in the Western Region, how could a demon appear?!"
Meng Gehan snorted coldly and said.
This is not because he is conceited. Among the surrounding countries, the strength of the Western Region can be said to be the strongest.
If it weren't for the previous demonic chaos, he would have attacked the Southern Song Dynasty or the Tang Dynasty long ago.
When the Shushan Jiujianxian killed the Heavenly Demon Queen, the demon retreated three feet, which allowed the Western Region to develop better. At this time, he was still hesitating whether to use troops against the Southern Song Dynasty or the Tang Dynasty.
In the past, there was a conflict between various forces and demons. Now that the demons have given in, the conflict between humans and humans has emerged.
"What Khan said is true. However, Khan, recently many of my people from the Western Regions have moved to the Southern Song Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty because of this rumor. This matter cannot be left alone."
"The relocation is a small matter, but the loss of my reputation in the Western Region is a big deal."
Sima Wei looked distressed.
really.
As soon as these words came out, Meng Gehan's face suddenly darkened.
Among all the Khans of the Western Regions, Meng Ge Khan was the most face-conscious.
It doesn't matter if the people under your command move, but if you make our Western Region lose face among the other countries, that's your fault!
"Sima Wei, you will give me an order later to block the border individually. You can only enter but not exit. You can't let these stupid people go to the Tang Dynasty or the Southern Song Dynasty. It really embarrasses my face in the Western Region. It's just a mere rumor. Let's do it. It makes people panic, these are a bunch of trash!”
Meng Gehan gave instructions to Sima Wei with a gloomy face.
"yes!"
Sima Wei nodded in response.
"Also, Sima Wei, send 50,000 troops to the depths of the desert in the Western Region. I want to see if there are any rumored demons there!"
"Besides this, you ordered all tribes to strictly prohibit discussions about the appearance of demons in the sky deep in the deserts of the Western Regions. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed on the spot!"
Meng Gehan thought for a while, came up with two countermeasures, and ordered Sima Wei again.
"His Majesty the Khan is wise!"
Sima Wei quickly flattered him.
"Okay, hurry up and do it. I'm going to play the game of "The beginning of the eel and the end of the eel" with my beauties."
At the end of the sentence, Meng Gehan showed an evil smile on his face. Although he had played this game of "Eel Begins and Eel Ends" many times, he always enjoyed it every time.
"Okay, Your Majesty Khan, I won't disturb you anymore. Now go and do what you asked."
Sima Wei said while stepping back.
"Um."
After a while, Sima Wei left the palace. After leaving the palace, he did not convey Meng Gehan's order immediately, but came to a relatively remote place.
When Sima Wei saw no one around, he turned over his hand, took out a jade slip from his arms, and cast the seal. After a while, a shadow slowly appeared on the jade slip.
It's none other than Liu Xi...
