Blossoms Bloom Three Worlds Falling Silently
Chapter 64: Disputes
I stayed in the room stuffy until noon, and it was quiet outside the city.
Ban Yue suffered a big loss, being so quiet was not a good thing, maybe he was planning something, in order to prevent Yang Que from burning down the city in a fit of rage, Yu Yan felt that he still had to go and have a look.
Unlike yesterday's sunny day, today's weather is gloomy and cold, and Zhu Yan wrapped his cloak and walked straight to the city wall.
Yesterday I could still see people coming and going outside, but today the streets are empty in broad daylight.
Yuyan guessed that they either hid, or were scared by the half-moon siege yesterday and ran away overnight.
The wind whipped up a bunch of dead grass on the street, and it was a desolate scene.
On the city wall, Yuyan searched all over but could not find Han Xun and Li Zhongyan.
"Where did Master Han go?" Yu Yan asked a random soldier guarding the city.
"I do not know"
"Oh" Since it's gone, he should go back.
After what happened last night, it is probably impossible for him to visit the half-month tent again, so it is better to go back early and think of a countermeasure in advance.
Before leaving, Yuyan looked back at the Banyue barracks in the distance, there were very few soldiers outside the camp, as if they hadn't woken up yet.
It shouldn't be!How could a general like Yang Que tolerate his subordinates sleeping during the day before the confrontation between the two armies?Even though these soldiers were busy putting out the fire last night, in order not to lower their morale, it was impossible for Yang Que to let them catch up on sleep during the day.
"Keep a close watch on the movement of Banyue's army, once they gather, immediately go to Mr. Han and inform him." About to leave, Yuyan was still worried and ordered to the soldier who had just questioned him.
"Yes!" The soldier didn't know who Yu Yan was, but because he sounded like a bureaucrat, he still respectfully agreed.
Yuyan was dangling and didn't know where to go, so it was better to discuss this matter with someone.
The best candidate is of course Chonghua, but the Banyue spy who was with Chonghua has already discovered his identity.
At such a sensitive time, if he went to have a secret talk with Chonghua, the spies might suspect him and ruin Chonghua's plan.
After hesitating, Yiyan returned to the prefect's mansion.
"My lord, Mr. Su and Mr. Fan are waiting for you!" As soon as they arrived at the gate of the mansion, the guard at the gate came to report.
"Okay, got it." Zhengchou had no one to help him figure out a countermeasure, so these two came to his door, and Yan Yan happily walked to the living room.
When seeing the two of them in the past, Yiyan had never been so enthusiastic.
In the living room of the prefect's mansion, Fan Lin paced impatiently in front of Su Tingzhou, while Su Tingzhou was drinking tea quietly.
"Have you been here for a long time?" As soon as he entered the door, Yu Yan walked over eagerly, caring.
"Not long, not long." Seeing that Yuyan came back, the impatience on Fan Lin's face was swept away, and he waved his hands quickly and said.
Su Tingzhou also put down his tea bowl and stood up, "Did you go to the city gate to supervise the battle, Yuyan?" Su Tingzhou's tone was full of worry. Although he knew that Yuyan was a warlock, some of them were originally, but half a month is an army of [-] people. , it's hard to guarantee that he didn't make any mistakes.
"I'm just going to have a look. I'm also a prefect!"
"The battlefield is dangerous, you have to be careful." As the prefect, Su Tingzhou knew that he had to inspect the battle situation, so he could only tell him.
Yiyan smiled relaxedly, "Although I can't fight a war, I can still save my life." Seeing that he was still in the mood to joke, Su Tingzhou was also relieved. Come and see him.
Fan Lin on the side couldn't get in the conversation, and rolled his eyes and looked at the two of them depressedly.
"Cousin, why don't you move to live in the prefect's mansion too, so you don't worry so much." He teased Su Tingzhou in a sour tone.
"I'm afraid you will come after I move to the prefect's mansion." Su Tingzhou shot back with a smile.
Yan Yan could see that Su Tingzhou and Fan Lin had a very good relationship, ever since Fan Lin often went in and out with Su Tingzhou, Su Tingzhou never let Mu Bai be by his side.
Presumably Mu Bai must be resentful in his heart now, he finally left, but who knows that Fan Lin is beside Su Tingzhou again.
"The two of you came just in time. I was afraid that Ban Yue's army would take the lead and burn Longcheng, so I asked you to discuss a countermeasure." Yu Yan took the opportunity to quickly bring up the business.
"Shouldn't Master Han discuss this matter of defending the city and using troops?" Fan Lin was born in Longcheng and knew all the officials in Longcheng.
"I've been to the gate of the city, Master Han is not here. Moreover, there are so many houses in Longcheng, which cannot be protected by the thousands of people under Master Han. As the prefect, I should do my best to solve these things. "
"Oh, let us think about it." Both Su Tingzhou and Fan Lin were born as merchants, so they are naturally among the best in business, but what Yiyan asked was not something they were familiar with, so it was naturally difficult to come up with a countermeasure.
But they are stronger than Yuyan anyway, in this case, all Yuyan can think of is to cast a spell on Longcheng.
This method, even if he can do it, will definitely attract the attention of the God Realm, and by then, the fact that he escaped from the Underworld will definitely not be concealed.
"Your Majesty Yiyan won't bother you about this matter, I have my own countermeasures." As soon as everyone finished talking, Han Xie and Li Zhongyan came in from the door.
"Why are you here?" Seeing the two people who came suddenly, Zhu Yan was very surprised. They were not watching at the city gate, why did they come running.
"Of course it is to solve the problem your lord said. Our army attacked the Banyue barracks last night. They will definitely make a big move today. I have thought about the problem your lord said a long time ago, and I have already started to solve it with lord Li."
"Oh, that's good." Since there are already countermeasures, it is of course best, but he doesn't want to know the specific countermeasures.
"I have to go back to the city gate quickly to prevent Ban Yue from attacking suddenly, so I'll take my leave first." But now Longcheng's life and death depended entirely on Han Xie alone, but Han Xie did not coddle and show off, and still acted neither humble nor overbearing.
"Okay, let's go" and watched the two leave, once the matter was resolved, the big stone in Yiyan's heart finally fell to the ground.
"It seems that there is nothing wrong with us." Fan Lin raised his head and looked around, saying with no deep meaning.
"You can sit down and talk too much if you have nothing to do!" Hearing that there was something in Fan Lin's words, Yu Yan hurriedly asked them to stay.
"It's like a friend." Fan Lin sat down satisfied, but Su Tingzhou seemed to have something on his mind, and sat silently in his original position.
After Fan Lin sat down, he glanced at Su Tingzhou, "Cousin, what are you thinking?"
"Ah?" Su Tingzhou shook his head and remained silent for a while, "I just saw last night that masked man who was with Yuyan yesterday brought many things to the inn in the south of the city, why didn't he live with you in the prefect's mansion? "The last sentence was asked by Su Tingzhou to Yuyan.
If he guessed correctly, the masked man must be the red-haired man he saw some time ago.
Even if they are just friends, the prefect's mansion is so big, there is no reason for Yiyan not to keep him living in the prefect's mansion, but to let him live in a hotel! "He went to the inn?" Yuyan was startled, could it be that Chonghua doesn't live in the abandoned house anymore, no, he clearly said yesterday that the spy in Banyue was still living in the abandoned house with him.
Seeing Ziyan's surprised expression, Su Tingzhou was very puzzled, "Yes, doesn't he live in the inn? He is looking for someone?" With the relationship between Ziyan and the masked man, it is impossible for him not to know where he lives , Could it be that I misunderstood it.
"I don't know where he lives, his whereabouts are uncertain." Yuyan smiled awkwardly, and Su Tingzhou and Su Tingzhou were polite for a while, and Su Tingzhou and Su Tingzhou saw that he was absent-minded, so they didn't bother him, and got up to leave.
As soon as the two of them left, Yu Yan couldn't wait to head towards the abandoned house in the south of the city.
When I arrived, there was no one there.
Everything is clean and it looks like it has moved away.
Without the slightest hesitation, Yu Yan hurriedly went to the inn in the south of the city.
"Shopkeeper, did a man wearing a mask and a black cloak stay here last night?"
"Yes." The shopkeeper replied while flicking his abacus, "Originally, the battle in Longcheng was tense, and the locals were fleeing everywhere. I also don't understand why there are still foreigners coming to stay here?"
"Did he come alone, or two?"
"There is only one customer in this shop. If he is not willing to spend money, my shop will be closed." The shopkeeper still did not raise his head, immersed in his account book.
"Which room does he live in?" Yu Yan asked anxiously, since the Ban Yue spy is not in Longcheng anymore, why did he leave last night?Have you misunderstood something?The shopkeeper raised his head, revealing his shining golden eyes, "This is the privacy of the guests, how can I tell you casually?" He is not very old, he looks like he is in his early twenties, and his eyes are full of shrewdness.
Seeing his expression, Yu Yan instantly understood what he meant, took out a gold bead from his bosom and slapped it on the counter.
"Go ahead."
"Hey - it's the one at the right end on the second floor." The shopkeeper showed a flattering smile, carefully held the gold beads in his hands, and touched them carefully.
Yu Yan quickly ran up the stairs and walked to the room on the second floor.
Walking to the front of the room the shopkeeper mentioned, Yu Yan slammed the door open.
"Are you really here?" Looking at the familiar figure with his back to the window, Yuyan said melancholy.
"Since the Ban Yue spy has withdrawn, you might as well stay with me in the prefect's mansion for a while." Yuyan said softly to Chonghua.
"With me here, how can you sleep well!" Chonghua's words were right, and Yuyan panicked, but he still knew it.
"Chonghua, that's just a dream." Yu Yan anxiously explained to Chonghua, "And that dream is related to those two stones. As long as those two stones are thrown away or destroyed, nothing will happen." Now, Yiyan can only tell the truth.
"I can't throw that stone!" Chong Hua said in a resolute and indifferent tone, and Yu Yan froze in place.
"What did you say? Those are just two stones." Yuyan had never seen Chonghua like this before, and the scene in his dream suddenly flooded his eyes.
Chonghua took off the mask, stared into Yuyan's eyes, and said word by word: "I said I can't throw that stone, you go back."
"This—" Before Yuyan could finish speaking, Chonghua waved a palm and swept him out of the door.
And quickly closed the door, no matter how anxious Ren Yuyan knocked on the door outside, he would not answer.
After patting on the door for a long time, no one paid any attention to him, so Yuyan gave up.
He went downstairs lonely, and the shopkeeper downstairs was still counting the accounts.
The shopkeeper bought this inn yesterday at a low price. The original owner was in a hurry to escape and sold the inn for only one gold bead.
In desperation, Yiyan had no choice but to go back to the prefect's mansion. He had to find out what the relationship between those two stones and Chonghua was.
Ban Yue suffered a big loss, being so quiet was not a good thing, maybe he was planning something, in order to prevent Yang Que from burning down the city in a fit of rage, Yu Yan felt that he still had to go and have a look.
Unlike yesterday's sunny day, today's weather is gloomy and cold, and Zhu Yan wrapped his cloak and walked straight to the city wall.
