Lotus Tower is the second best in the world

Chapter 207 Cholera appears in the north

There is no shortage of beautiful women in the imperial city with both talent and beauty, and naturally there is no shortage of suave and handsome men.

Li Lianpeng, who was treated as a country bumpkin, thought it was harmless.

After all, the most important thing is that your wife is happy.

As for what other people think of it, what does that have to do with him?

After boarding the carriage, Su Xiaoyong snorted lightly and turned his head away from looking at him.

However, there was a gentle smile flowing out of a pair of smart eyes.

Naturally, she saw the scene outside the carriage.

For a majestic man like Li Lianpeng, who has the world in mind, to be able to show an embarrassed posture in front of outsiders for her, to please her, it makes people feel warm in their hearts.

"The brothel girls in the imperial city are really unrestrained. They are soliciting customers half a street away."

Li Lianpeng sighed and seemed to say.

"Humph, people call you that, why don't you go and take a look?"

Su Xiaoyong said angrily in a suit.

Li Lianpeng stepped forward and hugged his wife, "Speaking of which, Li Lianhua and the others should have received the news, but they probably don't know the specific time of our arrival. In this way, we can give them a surprise."

Su Xiaoyong didn't struggle this time and leaned on his shoulder.

"Such a big event happened in this imperial city a few days ago, but now it seems that it has not been affected much."

"After all, it is at the feet of the Emperor. No matter how big the matter is, once a solution is found, it will quickly return to normal."

Li Lianpeng said, his expression moved slightly.

There was a rapid sound of horse hooves dozens of feet away from the carriage.

"Step aside!"

"Step aside!"

"Eight hundred miles urgent!"

As a man shouted in a deep voice, there was a commotion at the city gate.

Li Lianpeng and Su Xiaoyong in the carriage looked at each other and saw the confusion in each other's eyes.

Nowadays, although there are constant frictions between Daxi and Lu at the border, no real war has broken out.

Where did the eight-hundred-mile express come from?

However, the sound of horse hooves was getting closer and closer.

Li Lianpeng could even hear the horse's violent breathing. Judging from the sound, the horse carrying an important mission and the soldier who delivered the message were both at their physical limits at this moment.

"Oh!"

"what!"

After sitting down, the carriage shook for a while, and exclamations sounded from both sides of the carriage one after another.

At the critical moment, Li Lianpeng flashed and disappeared into the carriage.

The people on both sides of the official road only felt that their eyes were blurred.

Running too fast, there was no time to turn. In their sight, the horse that crashed straight into the luxurious carriage actually flew high over the roof of the carriage and landed in front of the carriage.

Only the horse with bleeding nose and mouth and the tall figure standing on the roadside told them that the scene just now was not an illusion.

"Fa, what happened?"

Due to the speed, not many people at the scene saw clearly the scene where Li Lianpeng took action and sent the horse and the thrown postman to the front of the carriage, which just made them feel baffled.

When the people nearby realized what had just happened and looked shocked, trying to see the face of the person who had done the trick, Li Lianpeng had already returned to the carriage and left the official road near the city gate.

……

"Young Master is really awesome!"

"Who is our young master? Do you even need to tell me? He is certainly extremely powerful!"

"Tsk, tsk, it would be great if I had skills like Young Master..."

"You? If you train for another hundred and eighty years, you won't be able to reach the level of Young Master!"

"Sir, are you okay?" In the carriage, Li Lianpeng took a breath and said with a smile: "It's okay, Qingluan, you and Shisan go and inform Li Lianhua and ask him and Fang Duo to go to the nearby Fuju Building. Come to me."

The young man Mu Qiang, as the dean of Luo'an College, it is still necessary for him to show his holiness in front of others occasionally.

Work harder, just work harder!

Su Xiaoyong looked at him with concern, "Are you really okay?"

Li Lianpeng, with a cloud of white mist rising above his head, shook his head and said seriously:

"The qi and blood are surging, and the internal energy is overused. It won't be a problem to take a rest... How about you kiss me? In this case, my husband and I will be full of energy in no time."

"You are the best at showing off!" Su Xiaoyong said dissatisfied.

Li Lianpeng didn't need to take action just now. The postman who was hurrying from 800 miles away bumped into their carriage. The official road is so wide that three carriages can pass unobstructed. This accident was not their fault in any case. Responsibility.

"I just took the opportunity to take out the eight-hundred-mile urgent document and take a look at it. It's about the Northern Territory."

"Northern Territory?"

Li Lianpeng nodded, "There are only two lines in the official document. The general meaning is that Qingzhou in the north has been invaded, and the aliens have led their troops to capture Yuxia Pass."

Su Xiaoyong's pretty face changed slightly, she didn't know anything about this kind of news!

"It's not a big deal. After Yuxia Pass, there is Yumen Pass, which is heavily guarded. It will not be a problem to block the alien army for ten days and a half."

"If this news spreads to the court, I'm afraid it will cause an uproar."

"After all, the foreigners from the north have always been the most loyal foreign ministers of the Daxi royal family."

"..." Su Xiaoyong was silent.

These state affairs news are not secrets.

Daxi has always regarded itself as a celestial dynasty. In order to maintain its face, it only gives gifts to those small countries every year, which consumes several years of tax revenue from a state. The tributes received from small countries are nothing more than some worthless objects. A perfect example of being taken advantage of.

But the prosperous age of the Celestial Dynasty has been created, and it will not work without these superficial efforts.

As a result, the foundation of the country is getting worse and worse.

The princes in the court, including the Great Xi Emperor, sang and danced privately, enjoyed fine wine and beautiful women, and the people of the world complained and complained that their lives were in danger.

The common people did not have enough to eat by farming, so in order to survive and eat, they had no choice but to wander around the world with their heads in their belts and engage in various despicable jobs.

This is also the main reason why Daxi has been surrounded by chaos in recent years.

Everyone went to form gangs and go around in the rivers and lakes, and there were not many people farming. Prices followed the rise, and conflicts naturally broke out.

Killing people and buying goods is not uncommon.

The imperial court can't control it, so it can only delegate power and let the Jianghu forces restrain themselves.

As a result, the phenomenon of city-defending autonomy similar to Yucheng emerged.

……

The dozen young men Li Lianpeng took out this time were all the most talented and best martial arts disciples in Luo'an Villa... now called Luo'an Academy.

These young people all have the qualifications to become first-class masters. What they lack is just the experience in the world.

On the way from Yangzhou in the south of the Yangtze River to the Imperial City in the Central Plains, although they followed the official route, they still encountered many bandits.

Among these people, there are ruthless gangsters who have blood on their hands all year round and have a ferocious look. They have completely lost their moral ethics at a glance.

There are also novice gangsters who are timid and rob passers-by just for a bite to eat.

Facing these people, Li Lianpeng treated them equally and left them all to the young men he brought out to deal with.

Whether to kill or to stay is up to them to decide.

This is a test of their skills and a test of their character by Li Lianpeng.

Good generals emerge in troubled times, and treacherous ministers emerge in prosperous times.

Nowadays, Daxi appears to be prosperous, but is actually in troubled times. Li Lianpeng wants to ensure that in the future, good generals who can leave a name for the ages are all under his control.

As for the original treacherous ministers in the court who ignored the dawn of the world and the common people——

You have to watch the opportunity and eliminate them one by one.
