After explaining the basic things, before leaving for the capital, I called Alaya, Heyue and others to have a year-end party. To be precise, it should be called "The First Annual Meeting of Lide Group". Alaya, Felita, He Yue, Bai Huang, and Fang Shisan are all participants. The content is not serious, the main thing is to summarize, chat and so on.
It is said that there is basically no taste of the year in the capital. The royal family has to go on a pilgrimage, the common people have to kneel down, and all kinds of civil servants and generals have to run around behind the royal family's pilgrimage team. A good year is like suffering. In fact, to be honest, I haven't had a good year in Lingyun City these years, basically I was left alone. The shops on the street are closed, the casinos and taverns are closed to pick up customers, and there are no entertainment places at all except for the fireworks. But I couldn't go there in front of Alaiya, so the Chinese New Year has been quite boring in the past few years.
Seeing so many people here this year, I also feel a little emotional.
Sure enough, it is better to be the master of the house, even in such a remote place, it is better than staying in Lingyun City to suffer.
I didn't call her over at Shiloh, and she wasn't fit to meet anyone else in town. Anbu should have the appearance of Anbu, and it is better to show less publicity. Although she was a little wronged by this, I believe she knew it in her heart.
"I'm here today... mainly to say a few more words to everyone. The people here have actually been in Yuxi City for less than a year. Including me, I have been in Yuxi City for less than a year. Several major events have happened this year. There are changes in the situation in the world, and there are things happening in our Yuxi City. I will not talk about these. The first thing I want to say is that I hope that when I am away, several people can perform their duties. Even if there are any conflicts, Don't make too much noise."
I glanced at He Yue and Fang Shisan, and said:
"Work, there is always friction. This year there are four more cities, which is a good thing, but those four cities only have land, no industry, and the future construction work is not easy. I don't care about things. It’s almost the same if I’m there or not in Xicheng, but if I’m here, there’s a decision for everything, that is, there’s a scapegoat. Now that I’m gone, you have to share the blame yourself, just don’t fight when the time comes.”
He Yue and Fang Shisan said with a smile:
"Won't."
Bai Huang held her cheek, looked at me with contempt, and said:
"What's going on, little brother, why is it like telling the funeral. If you go to a king, you'd be afraid of this, unlike you."
I leaned back on the chair, stretched myself, and complained:
"As the saying goes, the left eye jumps into wealth and the right eye jumps into disaster. I'm going to have crow's feet in my right eye these days. Can I not be afraid?"
Bai Huang snorted and said:
"coward."
I countered:
"If you don't go, it won't hurt your back to stand and talk..."
Before the words fell, I suddenly remembered this matter, and then asked:
"What do you guys say in the sea of clouds this year? Who will stay in the sea of clouds, Bai Ye or Bai Feng, and who will go to the capital?"
Bai Huang turned his head and said:
"I don't know about their affairs. I have been staying in Yuxi City."
I thought about it, so I didn't ask any more questions.
He Yue excused me:
"Although it's not the lords who went to the capital, this time the ostentation should be quite big. Those who have the ability to inherit the position of lords, whether they are the sons or the city lords who have been entrusted, are basically full-fledged. We started late, which is very important. It’s a disadvantage. Ms. Alaiya who went with her is currently the five great masters of swordsmanship. It is enough to put it around Yuxi City, but if it is placed in the Royal Capital, I am also a little worried. In case something happens, Yuxi City is too far away from the Royal Capital. , we can't do anything."
Felita was lying on the table, but when she heard the words, she straightened up, straightened her bangs on her forehead, and said:
"Otherwise I'll go too..."
He Yue shook her head:
"The royal family specified that a city lord can only bring one guard. Even if they follow them secretly, they should not be able to hide from their eyes."
I said to Felita:
"It's a long journey, so I won't take you this time. The traveling merchant who knew ancient characters came here again a while ago. I asked him to translate a few magic books that are on your shelf. Learn more when you have time." Take a moment. At the same time, don’t use optics, think carefully about what you are learning magic for, and when I come back from the capital, you can almost rise to the sixth level.”
With a flattering smile on Filita's face, she winked at me and asked:
"Will Master come to help me?"
I smiled and said:
"Some I can help, and some I can't help even if I want to. Think about what you were like when you first started learning magic, and what you thought about. When you can't continue learning magic, what are you relying on to persist? .I understand these things, and my heart is firm, and it will not be too late to go to the sixth level."
After speaking, I also glanced at Alaya and said:
"In your case... logically speaking, you should have entered the sixth level. Maybe it's because you didn't have the opportunity."
Alaya replied:
"Yes, master. Alaya must improve her strength as soon as possible."
"There's no rush. There's no rush."
If there were two people present with Alaya, I should still joke "Your chest is not in a hurry, why are you in a hurry", but with so many people present, this kind of joke can't be laughed at. Alaiya always had a flat expression, and the atmosphere was a little cold for a while.
At this time, someone knocked on the door outside, Bai Huang who was closest to the door opened the door casually, and Tila from outside handed over a letter. I originally wanted to ask why Heyue didn't leave the letters to and from Yuxi City to worry about, but when I took it, I saw that it was addressed to me.
The inscription is Zhaochen, the lord of Qianyuan City, Fangyuan.
It was the answer to the question I called Alaya last time.
I opened the letter, read it for a while, and laughed meaningfully.
I put away the letter and casually said to those present:
"This year Zhaochen, Fangyuan is going to the capital."
Fang Shisan's slender hands holding the wheelchair trembled, and then his expression remained normal.
He Yue glanced at Fang Shisan and said to me:
"It's good news for us. We have cooperated with Fangyuan before, and this person has no conflict of interest with us at present, and can even be regarded as a cooperative relationship. If he goes to the capital, it can be regarded as a companion. Fang Shisan, What do you think?"
Fang Shisan smiled and replied softly:
"Indeed... so."
I knocked on the table, thought for a while, and said:
"It's fine for him to go. Zhaochen's family and Yunyang's family are feuds. Although I'm not from Yunyang now, it doesn't mean that Zhaochen will let me go. On the contrary, I'm still theirs to deal with Yunyang The one who bears the brunt of it. Fortunately, Fangyuan was chosen, otherwise, if I change someone, I will fight against me everywhere in the capital, and I will be annoyed to death."
I smiled and took a sip of tea and said:
"However, the world is unpredictable. I have a very bad life in Yunyang, and I was even kicked out. As for him, although he was not kicked out, he has already entered into a life-and-death situation with Lord Zhaochen. Brothers and brothers, unexpectedly They were all called to the capital. The people in the capital are also interesting. That gentleman in white has a good plan."
