Yicheng, the sky is bright.
After Luo Chuan came out of the Wang family's house, he led everyone back to the summer palace.
But before he could enter, he was stopped by three people waiting in front of the Summer Palace. In addition to Qianxue in white, one was Zhao Wuji, the lieutenant of Lijun, and the other was Zhou Zhongqing, the chief official of Lijun. .
In fact, since Zhou Zhongqing was secretly taken north by people sent by Luochuan, he just stayed in the camp to rest most of the time. Even not many people in the army knew that he was here. He did not leave the camp until the army entered Yicheng. He and Zhao Wuji came to the Yongchang Mansion Office. Zhao Wuji went to the Military Affairs Office, and he took people to the county magistrates and various government offices. They took control of everything they could find, regardless of accounts or rosters, and packed them in boxes. Seal it and treat it like a treasure.
When Xuankong and Qianxue of Youxianmen found Zhao Wuji together, after some arrangements, Xuankong hurried westward, and Zhou Zhongqing, who had been busy all night, came to the gate of the Summer Palace with Zhao Wuji and Qianxue. Sure enough, they didn't wait long. Arrive at Luochuan.
Luo Chuan let everyone behind him enter the summer palace first, leaving only Wangchuan Sword Cultivator Chang Yufeng and the shadow that always followed him.
Turning over and dismounting, Luo Chuan handed the black horse's reins to Luo Changgong and strode up to Zhao Wuji and the others.
"I have met the Grand Administrator," Zhao Wuji and Zhou Zhongqing saluted in unison.
"No need to be polite," Luo Chuan raised his hand to support him a few steps away, then asked Zhao Wuji directly, "Where is Taoist Master Xuankong?"
Zhao Wuji said, "I gave him a transfer order, ordering Zhao Gui, the commander of the Shangyuan Army, to send troops to assist Youxianmen. Taoist priest Xuankong flew to Shangyuan City with the transfer order."
Luo Chuan frowned slightly, "There is a tide of big demons and beasts in the north of Fubo Mountains. Since Youxian Sect has come to us for help, relying solely on the Uehara Army for rescue may not be enough or too late."
Zhao Wuji nodded and said, "So calling in the original army for rescue is just the last stabilization strategy to deal with the beast tide. If we really want to quickly solve the current danger of Youxian Sect and Lijun Ancient Road, we have to rely on our side." He looked towards The two upper three realm experts beside Luo Chuan said, "Only one of the upper three realm experts can lead the team, supplemented by a group of middle three realm experts, so that we can quickly reach the Lijun ancient road and solve the urgent need."
Luo Chuan did not answer immediately, but turned to look at Zhou Zhongqing and asked, "Master Zhou, have all the affairs of the various government offices in Yongchang been properly handled?"
Zhou Zhongqing bowed slightly and said, "Not yet. There have been a huge number of documents and files in various bureaus in Yongchang over the years. They are different from the classification, storage and even compilation methods of Li County. At present, I am just sending people to the various bureaus. The things in the yamen are moved into major categories, and when they are transported back to the city, they are sent to the yamen by special personnel to sort them out. Only then can the faces of each bureau here over the past nine hundred years be revealed bit by bit."
"That's how it should be. I'm a layman when it comes to asking," Luo Chuan said sternly, "But now that this matter has come to an end, I would like to ask Mr. Zhou to do another important thing."
Zhou Zhongqing couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart when he heard this. In fact, ever since the incident with Yan Tieying, he had always had an indescribable awe for the young man in front of him. This time he was suddenly transferred northward by someone from the ANBU. Not only was he always in his heart He felt very uneasy. Even the entire Zhou Mansion, and even everyone who had close relations with the Zhou Mansion, were in panic. To the point where, to show his loyalty, he didn't even take a personal servant with him when he went north. Since then, he has been there every time. He had been cautious and meticulous every day, and finally heard this in the current situation. He knew that what Luochuan really wanted him to do was about to come. Although he was nervous, he couldn't help but feel a little happy in his heart. He just felt The worst outcome in my heart did not come after all.
Zhou Zhongqing's thoughts were whirling in his heart, but there was no change on his face. After hearing the words, he quickly bowed and saluted, "No matter what the prefect orders, I will go through fire and water without hesitation."
"Master Zhou, it's not that serious," Luo Chuan said with a relieved expression after hearing what Zhou Zhongqing said, "I just need a trustworthy and experienced person to help me reorganize the noble families in Yongchang."
In the flash of lightning in Zhou Zhongqing's head, he connected together the things he heard from relatives and friends in the military camp today, and "reorganized..."
"Yes, let's sort it out again." Luochuan glanced at the summer palace in front of him, and then turned to look at the quiet city behind him. "Last night, when Uncle Xian decided to leave the city and surrender, some nobles in Yi City stood with him. In the opposite position, Uncle Xian had to do something to ensure that nothing went wrong today. In the process, many people died, and the square I was sent to surround now The owner of the house is the driving force behind the whole thing..."
Zhou Zhongqing lowered his head slightly and wrote down everything without missing a word without speaking.
Luo Chuan glanced at Zhou Zhongqing and said calmly, "The matter of dedicating the uncle was not handled well, but after all, it was for the important event of dedicating the city, so it is not easy to criticize, but so many people died, whether they were Yongchang nobles or Yongchang people. , all need an explanation, an explanation that can convince everyone... Mr. Zhou, since I came to the throne, I have always heard Uncle Dou say that Mr. Zhou is quick-thinking and the best at dealing with people. So I thought Now I will leave this matter to you, and I hope Master Zhou can give me a satisfactory result. In this way, I will make a great contribution to the smooth transition of Yongchang."
Zhou Zhongqing heard this without any hesitation, and immediately bowed and saluted, "Don't worry, Lord Prefect, I will definitely do this well even if I'm a mess!!"
"I can trust Mr. Zhou," Luo Chuan paused and said, "But before that, I have sent a person to Fangzhai to prevent any complications. This person knows a lot about the nobles in Yongchang. Zhou If you have any questions when you are doing something, you can ask him. This person's name is Meng Sanshu. He was once an envoy to Li County for Meng Xiaotian. Lord Zhou should still have some impression of him."
Zhou Zhongqing said, "It's the scholar who sent the fire phoenix tree to the prefect."
"Exactly," Luo Chuan said, "At this time, he still has a power in his hand that I can use. If Mr. Zhou needs it when doing things in Yicheng, just let him handle it on his behalf. I will let him know about it. In addition," he paused again and saw Zhou Zhongqing looking over, he said solemnly, "Zhaoshui City General Sun Miao lives in the Sun family, and former Yicheng General Xu Lin lives in the Xu family. There should be no problems in these two places. Mr. Zhou can appropriately Take care of it.”
"I obey the prefect's order," Zhou Zhongqing saluted again. Seeing that Luo Chuan had no follow-up words, he left and hurried away with a group of soldiers sent by Zhao Wuji to protect him.
After Zhou Zhongqing led the people away, Luochuan turned around again and looked at Zhao Wuji and Chang Yufeng. Just as he was about to speak, he saw the shadow suddenly turned to look to the west, and then Chang Yufeng also looked over, stretched out his hand, and A water-colored talisman sword was led in front of him.
Chang Yufeng only glanced at it and then said with a hint of joy, "The danger of Youxianmen has been resolved, and the ancient road of Li County is worry-free!"
