Lord Lan

Chapter 53 Qu Huangcheng

"I picked it up."

"..." Yan Hongxi gave her a sideways look, this joke is really cold.

Su Julan changed the topic: "There are a little less people around me, I plan to go to Quhuang City tomorrow."

Hu Sha was the first to jump out to object, "You are crazy! They just made a big attack today, are you going to go to Huangcheng tomorrow to throw yourself into a trap?"

"The guards in Quhuangcheng are the weakest right now. If you want to take advantage of the fire, you must do it early." Su Julan comforted, "Don't worry, now the new head of Quhuangcheng has no time to thank me, so how dare you hurt me like Zhu Hao?"

Hu Sha was stunned, "What do you mean by that?"

Su Julan didn't look at her, but just glanced at Gongsun Jinbi.

In fact, she just bought a piece of news from Gongsun Jinbi.Liwei is true, but the one who can't wait for Zhu Hao's death is the so-called "brother" around Zhu Hao!
Zhu Hao, who was in his prime at the time, was indeed a man, but unfortunately he became more stupid in his later years, and he was greedy for power. Those brothers who were born and died with him all left angrily, and only Jiao Zhou was left in a weak body.

This Jiao Zhou is a smart person. Qu Huangcheng's slave trade system was created by him alone, but it is a pity that he came in second and was frequently suppressed by Zhu Hao.And Zhu Hao is ignorant and overly self-righteous, and often sabotages the major events that Jiao Zhou has worked so hard to plan. Over time, no matter how docile a cat is, he will have a temper.It's just that Jiao Zhou hid it very well, because although he controls most of the economic lifeline of Quhuang City, the military power is still in Zhu Hao's hands, and power is king.In order to bring Zhu Hao down, he secretly worked hard!
Zhu Hao shot at Bai Chicheng, at least half of him was fueling the flames.His original intention was to encourage Zhu Hao to go to war, weaken the troops, and then secretly contact other cities and troops to take the opportunity to destroy Zhu Hao. After the matter is completed, Bai Chicheng will give a lot of gold, silver and beautiful women as a salute in return.It's just that Jiao Zhou's calculation was very good, but Su Julan came out halfway!

Knowing the complicated internal strife in Qu Huangcheng, Su Julan sent Feiqin to send a letter to Jiao Zhou, meaning that she could help him eliminate Zhu Hao, Zhu Yan and other worries. The amount of money offered as a bribe.Jiao Zhou can refuse, but she is not kind.

Regardless of whether Hu Sha was still at a loss, or because of Yan Hongxi's repeated probing, she stopped talking and went straight back to her room.

Even though this ending couldn't be better, many people still think to themselves: If she can command such a monster, then what is her power?

Rumor - Su Julan is just a trash worthy of contempt? !

After returning to the room, Su Julan sat cross-legged opposite the Teng Snake, concentrating on it. Gradually, an invisible enchantment appeared within a foot of her body, and a faint radiance overflowed, wave after wave, flowing around her body dance.

The four forces from all directions are accumulating more and more, the kung fu of drawing eyebrows and drawing black hair, the two hands have maintained a complicated seal movement, these forces suddenly and slowly poured in from the top of her head, and then discharged black air through the body surface .After cyclic absorption, the black hair that was originally only lavender, faded from black in a blink of an eye, and turned into a dark purple that matched the dark eyes.

This is her most complete appearance, bewitching yet extremely pure.

It also means that she has completely erased the imprisonment imposed by Hao Shixuan, and from now on, she can freely control the four patriarchal powers again!

"Goo-"

She opened her eyes and stretched out her arms towards the open window. A gray eagle with fluttering wings flew in, landed on her arm with ease, and turned into a letter with a "bang".

Open the envelope to see:
My son, I haven't seen you for a long time, I miss my father very much.How have you been?Remember, the Xuanyuan assessment will be in half a month.

Father, Sue.

Su Julan didn't speak.She sent Su Feiyu and the others back because she didn't want someone to monitor her every move and find out that something was wrong because of all kinds of temptations.

She knew Su Wang and Su Feiyu treated her sincerely, but her current identity is not just Su Julan living under their protection!
She replied five words on the back of the envelope: very good, I remember.Then he threw the envelope towards the window, and turned into a gray eagle again and flew away.

Don't worry, since that concubine Jin used the Xuanyuan test several times to drive her to a dead end, then she will naturally wait, how can she be worthy of herself if she doesn't play around?

That night, Lin Rong began to prepare a carriage for Su Julan. When many people heard that she was going out of the city, they volunteered to process and modify a luxurious and enlarged carriage overnight.It is roped by three horses and can accommodate ten people.Canopy tassels, purple bamboo bells hanging in front of the car, and hidden compartments all over the car, filled with pastries, with all the details.With such a carriage, even the dignified Crown Prince of Yin Yueguo couldn't help feeling sour.

Su Julan was sitting in the corner of the carriage, followed closely by Yan Hongxi, Hu Sha, Shao Le and Gongsun Jinbi.She stretched out her hand to open the curtain halfway, and there were many people following on both sides of the carriage.

She brought Nie Luan, Li Yan, and Zhang Qiu, and Shao Kang must be following Shao Le, and the other three were Yan Hongxi's subordinates who disliked everyone.As for Lin Rong, she arranged to stay in the city just in case.

Among the pledge students who were rolling over the dust, she saw that the flat battlefield yesterday was in ruins, and the bones of more than 6 people were incinerated into a mountain, filled with wooden stakes, and hung with copper bells, which made a burst of noise when the horse's hooves passed by. The crisp sound, when, when, when...

Life is full of desolation.But after the carriage passed through this desolation, there were endless scenery along the way. She had seen it one by one, and the road was coming to an end. A heartless purgatory.

After the carriage entered the city, it also testified to her intuition.Qu Huangcheng is located on the border of Aofeng Kingdom and Yanchi Kingdom, with a special geography, it is open to the slave trade.The monarchs of the two countries did not dare to act rashly, and Qu Huangcheng contributed a lot to the finances of the two countries, so the slave trade here was acquiesced, and the bigger it got, the more cruel and bloody it was.

Several high platforms were set up in the empty and boundless square, with people standing guard on the top, and a large number of onlookers gathered around the high platform below.These people are all local gentry and business groups from other places. They select people who are locked on the ground or in iron cages as livestock and bargain for prices.

The slave trade system in Quhuangcheng has the so-called "three classes and two elections".The so-called third class is divided into low, middle and high grades according to the gender, occupation, and status of slaves; while the two selections are the way to buy slaves, one is the audition for low-level and middle-level slaves, just like the selection of livestock in front of you , and the other is auction, which provides high-end goods to rich people.

There are many sources of slaves, some are free people who live in poverty and are willing to sell themselves as slaves, some are captives, and some come from wealthy families who have fallen or been convicted—such as Shao Le and others, who were exiled to Quhuang City for sale .The guards on the high platform have sharp and vicious eyes, and the merchants who are rushing to buy are vying to lower the price. Compared with the struggling and screaming slaves locked in the iron cage, they are covered in blood, while the slaves squatting in the pen, as docile as sheep, look dull. , with empty eyes, even if no one was whipping and guarding, he still squatted on the ground sluggishly and let people pick at his face, motionless and numb.
