Chapter 527 The White Moonlight of Powerful Officials [1v3] (31)

When the mayor and the others learned that Wei Changce was sent by the imperial court, their complexions immediately turned dark, and they snorted coldly, "If the general arrives, I'm afraid everyone in our town will be turned into a pile of bones. Her Royal Highness the Princess has already sent a patrol army to wipe out the bandits."

Wei Changce frowned, "Who did you say sent soldiers?"

The mayor looked at Wei Changce's face that suddenly sank, and seemed to realize the deterrent power of the young general, and the previous dissatisfaction disappeared in an instant.

"Yes, they are the soldiers sent by the eldest princess."

As he spoke, he pointed to General Chang who sat opposite and was ordered by the eldest princess to suppress the bandits.

Wei Changce looked in the direction he pointed, but did not let go of his furrowed eyebrows, "Are you really sent by the eldest princess?"

General Chang had heard about Wei Changce, and immediately took out the eldest princess' handbook, "Your Majesty Wei, you will know it at a glance."

Wei Changce took the handwriting, and at a glance he saw the seal on it that belonged exclusively to the eldest princess.

He couldn't help but feel even more puzzled.

The eldest princess, the high priest, the bandits...

Why is everything overtaken by this small town?

Reminiscent of the stone flow they encountered on the mountain road, Wei Changce suddenly felt that what happened in this small town might not be that simple.

"The handbook, my son, accepted it first...so you have dealt with all the culprits?"

General Chang immediately nodded, "Yes, except for the more than 300 bandits who were annihilated, all the other 600 people have been taken into custody and sent to the Yamen for trial."

Wei Changce found a seat and sat down, and then his usual smile appeared on his face, "General Chang has worked hard."

"How can there be, we are all working for the court, and the son has worked hard all the way. I heard that due to the heavy rain and the steep mountain road, the son and his party were trapped for many days."

Wei Changce smiled lightly, without showing any emotion on his face, "General Lao Chang misses, my son and the soldiers are doing well, no one was injured, but the priest..."

He raised his brows lightly, and looked at Rong Chen in the seat of honor with meaningful eyes, "For the matter of Lingnan Town, the Priestess has really dedicated himself to coming here in person."

It's not that Rong Chen didn't hear the probing intentions in Wei Changce's words, but he just turned his eyes slightly, and looked into his eyes calmly.

"I'm just fulfilling my duty as a high priest. Now that the matter of the bandits has been settled, the prince might as well leave as soon as possible to escort Miss Liu to Beijing safe and sound."

Only then did Wei Changce look at Bai Wu who was standing aside.

She frowned lightly, with some indelible sadness on her face.

For some reason, he always saw a bit of Meier in her.

But they are obviously two people again.

One is like a crabapple on a branch, bright and gorgeous, blooming against the sun.

The other is like the cold orchid under the moon, always with a bit of sadness and pity.

It's a pity that the bright Mei'er will never come back.

Rong Chen noticed Wei Changce's overly lingering eyes, and a trace of inexplicable restlessness came to his mind.

He looked at Liu Qiqi like this.

Is it because the two have known each other for a long time?
But this look clearly doesn't look like looking at a friend.

"What's wrong with Prince Wei?" Rong Chen couldn't hold back after all, and interrupted Wei Changce's sight with a sound.

Wei Changce was stunned for a moment, and then he came back to his senses, his brows drooped a little, "It's nothing, sir, don't worry, my son will send Miss Liu to the palace safely."

Rong Chen caught the loss that flashed across his eyes.

I couldn't help but wonder if it was the right choice for me to entrust Liu Qiqi to him.

But everyone is already here.

He had no choice but to force himself to withdraw his mind from this matter, and turned to look at the mayor, "What about you?"

The mayor still looked puzzled, "My lord, is there really no room for negotiation about this, this, Wu Xian?"

Bai Wu, who had been silent for a long time, finally opened her mouth, "My lord priest, the girl has a proposal, I don't know if it is feasible or not?"

Rong Chen's fingertips trembled.

Fortunately, he was wearing a mask, which could well disguise all his emotions.

"Tell me." He said two words lightly.

"Qiqi thinks that the mayor's concern is right. Lingnan Town is in a catastrophe. Now that Xin Wuxian is taking office, he will definitely not be able to gain the trust of the villagers for a while. Instead of stalemate, it is better for the priest to leave a white-clothed waiter to take care of Lingnan's ritual affairs temporarily. .

Let General Chang stay here for a while to ensure public security, and when the villagers calm down and their lives are on the right track, it will not be too late to elect a new Wuxian. "

The mayor repeatedly echoed, "Yes, yes, Miss Liu's proposal is feasible."

General Chang also nodded, "The Eldest Princess' handbook does have the intention of ordering the troops below to be stationed in Lingnan Town. It just so happens that my brothers can also help the villagers rebuild their houses."

Even Wei Changce couldn't help taking another look at Bai Wu.

I heard that Liu Qiqi is just a country girl.

He originally thought that she could win the late emperor's favor only because of her beauty.

Now it seems that this woman is not as innocent as she seems.

Just three or two sentences resolved the contradiction between the two parties.

However, since the temple has kept people here, the eldest princess has also kept people here.

Why doesn't he also "join in the fun"?

Wei Changce smiled, leaned on the grand master's chair and said, "Master Sacrifice, let's make it so. If General Chang is short of manpower, I just brought some people here. If the bandits are not suppressed, let them help here." It's pretty good too."

Rong Chen frowned lightly.

After a while, he slowly opened his mouth, "That's it. Tomorrow, Japan will bring Wu Xian back to Lingguang Mountain, and the mayor will take care of the rest."

The mayor hurriedly stood up and saluted, "Master Sacrifice has worked hard, safe journey."

A seemingly calm but turbulent parliament ended in this way.

Bai Wu watched everyone leave with satisfaction.

In addition to the letter to General Chang, she also included a secret edict.

No matter what, he must find ways to stay in Lingnan Town, and gradually gain the right to speak in the town.

If the people of the temple work with him.

When necessary, cut first and then play.

In this way, Lingnan Town will become her first stronghold against the temple.

Seeing Rong Chen's fading figure, she couldn't help but curl her lips.

We will part ways tomorrow.

Tonight she will seize the last chance.

...

On the willow shoots in the moonlight, Bai Wu walked through the gazebo and came to the courtyard where Rong Chen lived.

Those white-clothed waiters still stood guard at the door of his room, their faces full of solemnity, majestic and inviolable.

After a few days, Bai Wu already knew these people almost, she went straight to Si Tong and blessed her body, "Master, can you inform me, I want to see Sir Priest."

Si Tong frowned, "I'm sorry Miss Liu, the priest has already rested, it's too late, you should go back."

Bai Wu bit her lips unwillingly, "But..."

In the next second, there was a clear voice from the door, "Si Tong, let Miss Liu come in."

The dissatisfaction on Si Tong's face did not disappear, but he still opened the door for Bai Wu, "Miss Liu, please."
