As dawn broke, the torches were extinguished in the Prison Department.
At three o'clock in the morning, peace returned to the Prison Suppression Department.
Changqing's injuries have been completely healed, and all those captured have been processed and released on the spot.
No one knows why this is, but many people behave slightly abnormally after leaving the Prison Suppression Department, making everyone aware that all this is by no means as simple as Lord Changqing's "wrong arrest".
"Someone is coming."
Evergreen shouted softly.
Shangguan Li rushed over with continuous strides, "My lord, please give me your instructions."
"Those who were at the same table with me yesterday for betting, let them go to Zui Feng Tower to find me."
"Yes, sir!"
Zui Feng Tower, lobby.
Chang Qing sat where Wang Sanxiao sat before, with a wide view.
You can see the Prison Control Department on one side, and you can directly see the Red Building on the other side.
The bustling streets can also be seen at a glance.
Pedestrians passing by looked in awe after seeing Changqing.
The waiter at the shop was waiting attentively, asking about Changqing's taste.
Soon, a table full of delicious food was served, as well as a jar of Wang Sanxiao's favorite wine.
After pouring a bowl, Changqing poured it at his feet.
But it caused a sound of displeasure.
"How can such a fine wine be wasted like this!"
The voice was familiar, an old man who was calm and powerful, sitting opposite Chang Qing.
"General Liu?" Changqing was stunned.
"Why are you here?" Changqing asked.
Liu Shanhe said: "What do you mean, why am I here? I've always been here! Otherwise, do you think Wei Lianxing can walk so fast with his weak intestines?"
"Come, General, please drink!"
Changqing stood up and hurriedly poured wine for Liu Shanhe.
"Are you afraid that Honglou's ears won't stretch that long?" Liu Shanhe picked up the bowl, drank it all in one gulp, breathed a sigh of relief, and said with bright eyes: "Good wine!"
"It's really good wine. I want to recite a poem." Changqing shook his head.
"Stop moaning, we have business."
"..." Chang Qing suddenly choked.
"There are many hidden dangers in the Qingyun Kingdom, and the White Bone Forest is the leader. I didn't expect you to eliminate the leader so quickly. I wonder when Wu Donglai's vision would be so vicious."
Changqing was speechless. Isn't this because of the jade pendant you gave me?
"With your current level of cultivation, you won't get much benefit from going to the Imperial City. Your abilities are so outstanding, it would be a pity not to put them to good use."
"General, if you have something to say, just say it directly." Changqing got straight to the point.
Liu Shanhe took out his chopsticks, ordered some drinks, and drew two lines on the table.
"This one is the border mountain range."
"???"
"This line is the limit where the spiritual energy gathers in the border mountains. The area in the middle is the border of Qingyun Country, where the spiritual energy is thin. Within this limit, there is the interior of Qingyun Country, where the spiritual energy is as normal."
"..."
Liu Shanhe clicked two more points on a line inside, "This is Fanlin City, and this is Chixiao City."
Changqing looked at Liushanhe with a complicated expression.
Liu Shanhe actually drew a map for himself? Changqing never thought of this.
"Do you understand?"
"I understand..."
Liu Shanhe continued: "Outside Chixiao City, there are two large mineral veins, one is the Fire Spirit Stone mine, and the other is the Meteor Iron Mine. The minerals are rich, and the wealth is flowing. The military salaries of the border troops all come from Chixiao City. Taxation. Originally, these two mines were jointly guarded by Chixiao Town Warden and the Frontier Army, but the spiritual energy tide that occurs every ten years can always cause demons to move..."
"So, these two mines were mined with the help of Jianghu gangs, and jointly supervised by Chixiao Town Prison Supervisor and the Frontier Army. In the past, there were gaps in military pay. In normal times, it would have been bearable."
"But……"
Liu Shanhe was worried and said: "Now that monsters dare to enter Fanlin City to assassinate Tianjiao, the border mountains and Hundred Demon Mountain Forest may also be in danger. If the military pay is insufficient for a long time, the morale of the army will not be cohesive and the soldiers and horses will be in chaos. If the Hundred Monster Mountain Forest is ...You know the consequences, right?"
Changqing's face also became serious, "I know."
Liu Shanhe continued: "We are not seeking to suppress the Hundred Demon Mountain Forest. At least we are more armed than the Xuanyue Kingdom. Even if there is any movement in the Hundred Demon Mountain Forest, the monsters will flood into the Xuanyue Kingdom."
Liu Shanhe sighed. He knew that diverting trouble to the east was a bad idea, but there was nothing he could do about it.
The Mountain Forest of Hundred Demons cuts across the entire Liuyun Continent. Its name is "Mountain Forest", but it is not weaker than the power of a country.
"What step do I need to take?" Changqing thought for a moment.
Liu Shanhe looked at Changqing, opened his mouth, and fell silent.
After a long while, he slowly said two words: "Military pay."
Changqing was a little surprised and quickly nodded in response: "Understood."
"You..." Liu Shanhe was stunned, looking at Changqing with eyes full of admiration.
There is no need to say more about the dangers involved.
This can be seen from Wu Dong's temporary promotion to the position of executioner, but he did nothing.
Liu Shanhe only said the word "military pay", and Chang Qing knew what was going on.
If anyone can really go to Chixiao City, the only thing that can be done in the current court is the executioner.
With such huge interests involved, the relationship behind it must be complicated.
Even a general can only take care of the soldiers on the frontier.
Liushanhe picked up his wine bowl and paid homage to Changqing.
Changqing hurriedly responded.
Liu Shanhe drank another gulp, his eyes turned to Chang Qing, who was wearing beggars' cloth.
"I thought you wouldn't need a heaven-level magic weapon." Liu Shanhe said.
"Wu Donglai thought so too," Changqing replied.
Liu Shanhe was stunned for a moment.
Chang Qing smiled and said, "Otherwise he wouldn't have given me just this official uniform."
Liu Shanhe burst into laughter.
After the laughter stopped, Liu Shanhe said: "I won't go to Chixiao City now. If you encounter a danger that you can't solve, you can take out that jade pendant."
"Who should I contact?" Changqing blurted out.
"..." Liu Shanhe was speechless for a while.
After a pause, Liu Shanhe said a name: "Liu Qingmei."
"Oh?" Changqing raised his eyebrows.
Liu Shanhe said with a smile on his face, "I hope you won't take out the jade pendant."
After saying that, Liu Shanhe changed his tone seriously: "What I mean is, I hope you won't encounter any danger that you can't solve."
"..."
Liu Shanhe left with only a few bowls of wine and no food.
Some people who were gambling at the same table last night made an appointment to come together and waited respectfully outside the lobby of Zui Feng Tower, hoping to wait for Chang Qing to finish his meal.
"come over."
Changqing waved his hand.
Six or seven people were nervous, pushing each other and walking in slowly.
Changqing reached into his arms, and with a jingling sound, he took out all the Qiankun Ring and Qiankun Bag and placed them on the table.
Several people looked at each other blankly, feeling terrified.
"I do not accept bribes." Changqing said, "Whose originally belonged to these will take them back."
"Sir, these are not ours..."
"Sir, these are just hasty preparations..."
"grown ups……"
Chang Qing frowned, "I only receive remuneration from Your Majesty, are you waiting to pay His Majesty's salary?"
The faces of several people changed drastically, and they hurriedly took away the items.
The new rumors in the city are indeed good!
