step by step

For a long time, Kong Zhu only stayed on the impression of wolf ambitions given to her by the direct line.Before, she never understood why the direct line was so afraid of the collateral line, but now, for the first time, she witnessed the powerful influence of the collateral line.

There was no other reason, the person Su Gewen brought her to find was one of the collateral members of the Mind-Reading Line, the lord of Luonan City, Zuo Guangyao.A small sideline actually serves as the lord of such an important city in southern Xinjiang. Just this, and a glimpse of the leopard, has given her a little more understanding of the strength of the sideline.

Even though the two factions are fighting to the death in secret, under the current background, it is still very necessary to maintain superficial peace.The white-haired old man waved back most of his guards, leaving only a few young people - obviously the rest were collateral youths who knew his identity.He bowed down to Kong Zhu meticulously.Since Kong Zhu and others came in until now, all his actions are absolutely impossible to find a single mistake.Kong Zhu politely helped him up, and at the same time, his heart became slightly vigilant.

She could tell that Zuo Guangyao hadn't looked her in the eye from the beginning to the end.When talking to her, his gaze always falls on her chin, seemingly humble, just to be alert to her mind reading skills.

The few disdainful young people behind him are not scary, what is scary is this kind of old fritters.They have lived for most of their lives, and their experience and experience far exceed those of the younger generation.Compared with those young people who are irritable and impulsive and don't know how to control their emotions, such a poisonous snake with its fangs is more uneasy for his enemies.

Everyone sat down in the guest seats, and Kong Zhu knew that he was full of doubts, so he stopped going around in circles and said politely: "Master Zuo, you also know that there have been many troubles at the border recently. The transfer of millions of troops is not a trivial matter. It's just that the emperor's news is blocked." The situation is too strict, and none of our people can get any news, and rumors are everywhere in the clan. In order to appease the uneasiness of the clansmen, the patriarch specially sent me to explore in southern Xinjiang. The ruling order is his token to us. But only With just a few of us, it is impossible to pass through the major cities besieged by the army, so we would like to ask you to help me a little bit, may I know?"

Zuo Guangyao's heart skipped a beat, he never imagined that the direct descendant would want to come to this muddy water, he said in embarrassment: "Of course, you are all envoys sent by the patriarch, and you still have the token of the patriarch, no matter what you have Whatever your request, we will definitely do our best to help you. It's just, it's just that the Luonan city is not under my control now, even if I sincerely want to open the city gate, I can't help you leave."

Kong Zhu frowned slightly, then let go, with a half-smile and said: "Please explain in detail, my lord."

Zuo Guangyao said: "You must have just come here, don't you know the situation here? From here to the south, including Luonan City, there are thirteen cities in total. About a month ago, the emperor ordered me to build thirteen cities After the blockade, a general was sent here, not only to take over the five thousand city guards of Luonan City, but also to blockade the entire Luonan City. Now, even the entire Luonan City is under his temporary control. We original officials, They were all under house arrest in his own mansion, not to mention helping, even himself was hard to protect."

After his words fell, a young man behind him couldn't help making a sound, and said indignantly: "What kind of bastard general, he just relied on being sent by the emperor to show off his might, don't think we don't know, how much he swallowed us in private these days Money. Returning the imperial envoy? Pooh! Holding chicken feathers as arrows, such rubbish, if my father hadn’t kept asking me to wait, I would have taken someone to kill him long ago! This Luonan city is still my Zuo family’s territory after all!”

He spoke extremely quickly, and it seemed that he had endured it for a long time.After he finished speaking, Zuo Guangyao's reprimand had just finished.Seeing that Kongzhu was thinking, his face became even more ugly, he gave the young man who was still not convinced, and hurriedly said: "The dog is rude, bumped into a few, and invited a few Haihan."

Kong Zhu smiled faintly, the group of them were all smart people, and they naturally caught the clues revealed in the words just now: "It doesn't matter, your son has a straightforward temperament, but it makes us very happy. Your Excellency is in such a situation now, we will not embarrass you My lord, but please introduce us to the general."

Zuo Guangyao was stunned for a moment, his heart skipped a beat for no reason, such impeccable words were actually uttered from a little girl's mouth.Looking at his own incompetent son, it really made him feel extremely ironic.Is the bloodline of the direct line really so outstanding?

His eyes swept across the people below her without leaving a trace.At first he was puzzled, how could the patriarch entrust such an important matter to a yellow-haired girl?The woman behind her also looked very young, drinking tea calmly, as if she didn't hear anything.But he didn't ignore it. When he came in just now, these two women were at the front.Obviously in this small team, these two people occupy a dominant position.In his opinion, even Su Gewen, who had met him once, seemed more reliable than these two women.It was only now that he suddenly realized that he couldn't see through these two women.

He has lived most of his life for nothing. He has always seen people very accurately, and he can tell what a person is thinking from his subtle movements.This is not mind reading, but the wisdom summed up by the experience of most of my life.But his wisdom seemed like shit in front of these two people.

His complexion is extremely bad, but he still has to hide his emotions, so as not to be noticed by these people in front of him: "This is easy to handle. Although I can't make the decision in Luonan City now, I will recommend a few for the general. The younger generation still has face. When do you want to ask to see the general?"

Kong Zhu said: "The sooner the better."

Zuo Guangyao went to prepare. He sent someone to invite a few people into the room to rest. After the guards leading the way left, Su Gewen said coldly: "This branch is really getting more and more unrestrained." He just said Kong Zhu's matter is a little too extreme, he is generally recognized by the family as a gentle and elegant young man, a good gentleman.However, his temper has also been irritated. In fact, these guys' wolf ambitions are clearly revealed, and they don't hide it at all.

Kong Zhu had already set up a sound-proof enchantment around him first, and heard the words: "The direct lineage is declining, and the collateral lineage is growing. People are swords, and I am fish. Now people can still maintain a respectful attitude towards you fish. What are you dissatisfied with?"

Anyone who can follow here is not stupid.He heard clearly what Zuo Guangyao's son said just now, "This is the territory of my Zuo family".The Zuo family is not a common surname in the collateral lineage, but even such a family fought to such an extent for the turf that even the imperial envoy who had taken over his power wanted to kill people.Taking a peek at the leopard, presumably the major ethnic groups in the collateral are fighting for the distribution of the territory in full swing, right?

"After driving for so many days, take a good rest. Maybe we will have a tough battle to fight later." Shi Sang looked at Kong Zhu provocatively, but Kong Zhu didn't care about her aggressiveness Fa, snorted softly, and sat down to practice on the spot.Shi Sang pouted, and sat down boredly.The barrier under Kong Zhubu quietly expanded several times, and the situation in the entire courtyard was unclear, and it was difficult for them to separate.Everyone can see that they are entrusted with such an important task, they must be the elite of the direct line, the confidants of the patriarch.It would be terrible if those guys in the collateral suddenly had a brain twitch and wanted to keep them here completely.Anyway, they are the lords of a city, who knows how many hidden forces they have, it is better to be more vigilant.
