Chapter 223: Chapter 223

On the black cliff near the official road.

The strong wind with moisture by the lake kept blowing Yongxiang's purple dress.

Her long hair is fluttering, tightly bound by a wide white headband with golden bells.

"Do you have anything to say?"

The maid in front of her was someone she would never expect to betray.

Because this man has served her for twelve years.

Twelve years

How many twelve years are there in life?

They grew up together, played together, and gradually became disparate in status, and never completely separated.

Now

"Han Jia, why...why did you do such a thing?"

The voice was covered by the whining wind, but it couldn't cover Yongxiang's heaving chest at this time.

She just had a major investigation not long ago and thought it was all right.

but now.

She no longer knew who to trust.

The maid Han Jia gritted her teeth, lowered her head, and did not reply.

She has nothing to say.

I have exhausted my potential, and I barely reached this height by overdrafting my body and taking a lot of medicine.

If you still want to move forward, you can't do it.

And Yongxiang.

From the very beginning, they were doomed not to get along peacefully.

From the beginning when her whole family was killed by the Lingting Court, and only she was left, everything was already doomed.

"Princess." Plop.

Han Jia suddenly fell to his knees and kept kowtowing.

His forehead kept colliding with the hard ground, causing blood to ooze slowly and make a thumping sound.

"I beg the princess to spare me! Han Jia really doesn't dare anymore, it's just a momentary fascination! I'm just acting impulsively, temporarily."

"Enough!" Yong Xiang snorted, interrupting her.

"Tell me, who are you fighting for?" She looked at the woman in front of her with great disappointment.

"Zhenyijiao!" Han Jia replied decisively. "The Daoist of the Zhenyi Sect spent a lot of money to bribe me to attack Zhang Ying."

"So you poisoned all of our meals??! Are you crazy!? Buy? What did they use to buy you??"

Yongxiang closed her eyes tiredly.

"Forget it, let's go." She waved her hand. "For the sake of the ten years of friendship between you and my master and servant, don't come back again."

Han Jia also knew that she had no more hope, so she kowtowed to Yong Xiang again, got up, turned and left.

From the moment she started, she had no intention of surviving.

But in the end...unexpectedly, Princess Yongxiang made a sudden move to save her life.

So far, I haven't thought of a suitable reason to answer at all.

She could see the disappointment in the princess's eyes.

But so what.

The other party doesn't understand at all.

How can a person who stands at the end of all people at birth like this understand the pain of people whose families have been destroyed?

"Go. Since you have already chosen the direction. Don't let me see you again." Yong Xiang turned her back and took a deep breath.

"Han Jia. Thank you Princess." The maid turned around, bowed heavily, with tears in her eyes, got up and left quickly.

"Daojiao, I will solve it for you, go back and change your name, live a good life. Stop doing things for the people behind you."

Yong Xiang reminded her, then turned her head, looked at Han Jia's back, which paused for a long time.

It wasn't until her back disappeared that she tiptoed and left in a blink of an eye.

Inside the convoy.

Zhang Rongfang narrowed his eyes and stared at Yongxiang who flied back quickly and stood in front of the carriage, ready to rest.

He took Chen Han and the other three and quickly approached them.

"Dare to ask the princess, what is the result of the interrogation?"

"It was just an unintentional mistake. My maid just mistook you for another villain. Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, I have expelled you." Princess Yongxiang replied coldly.

"Expelled away!?" Zhang Rong turned cold, "What does the princess mean?" Are these words really fooling ghosts?

"What do I mean? Can't you hear clearly?" Yongxiang raised his voice and looked at Zhang Rongfang.

The inexplicable emotions that arose in her heart because of Han Jia's betrayal also stirred up at this moment.

"That person was just an unintentional mistake, and I have already punished her. There is no one behind the scenes! What? Do you have an opinion!?"

Everyone in the world is the dog of the royal family, what she said and what she did, even those who are not from the royal family dare to question it! ?

The volume of her voice at this time has already caused people around to look this way.

Although everyone didn't dare to look at it openly, they all pricked up their ears to eavesdrop and peek.

Zhang Rongfang looked at Yongxiang and didn't talk nonsense. From just now, he guessed this possibility.

Now it's just confirmed.

"How can the poor have any opinions. If so, I would like to thank the princess for letting me know." He turned around and left without stopping.

Now that he has seen Yongxiang's temper and personality clearly, it is useless to say more.

Royal blood, high above, he can't afford to mess with it now.

The person who assassinated Zhang Ying was let go by the princess.

Word spread quickly, spreading throughout the convoy.

The four members of Daojiao and the Yongxiang team were no longer together, but a little behind, obviously there was a gap.

Since then, there has been no communication between the two sides.

The convoy was on the road again, and half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

Passing through a large lake, along a jade belt-like river all the way forward, approaching the mouth of the sea.

The convoy finally successfully arrived at its destination—Syrton Harbor.

"Your Majesty, Zhao Yanting, governor of Citong Mansion, pays homage to Inspector Yongxiang."

Still on the official road, more than ten miles away from the city, a group of officials had already come to greet him under the protection of soldiers and horses in advance.

The group of officials wore scarlet, pink, green and blue official robes. A group of people gathered there, as if they were singing and performing a drama.

In the hot weather, many of the officials who did not know martial arts were sweating on their foreheads, and they did not know how long they had been waiting.

Princess Yongxiang got out of the car, whispered a few words to the three red-robed officials standing at the front, then returned to the car, and under the escort of the team, slowly drove towards the city of Zaitong.

And Zhang Rongfang, as a Daoist Taoist, also stepped forward to meet with several chief officials.

The highest status of Erythrina is Governor Zhao Yanting.

This is an old man with gray hair and a slightly fat body.

Zhang Rongfang sized him up for a while, and he saw that this person was not a warrior, but the two beside him walked like a ruler, had a vigorous figure, and their eyes were as sharp as knives.

When he came here this time, he took up the post of guardian, and he was assigned as a deputy inspector, which counted as a third rank.

So although the core of this time is Yongxiang, Zhang Rongfang also needs to work.

In the eyes of the local officials in Yitong, the suppression of chaotic religion should mainly be done by a powerful person like Princess Yongxiang.

As for Zhang Rongfang, he should have made a special trip to get on the car for gold plating.

Daoist Taoist, with such a status, although he is not as prominent as the master of Yongxiang County, it is by no means easy to offend.

The convoy of the princess in front hurried on slowly.

Zhao Yanting also invited Zhang Rongfang to get into his carriage together.

The carriage is pulled by pure black horses without any variegation. The carriage is not big, with hollow carvings on three sides, and some incomprehensible characters are carved everywhere inside and outside.

Moire patterns and a bird with a long beak like a needle, resembling a hummingbird, are the main decorative patterns on the carriage.

The entire carriage is in black background, and the patterns are decorated with silver lines, which is extraordinarily gorgeous.

See Zhang Rongfang carefully looking at the carriage.

Zhao Yanting smiled.

"Does Zhang Shoujiao feel that this official is extravagant and wasteful? Just such a show, is it enough to compare with the top of the road in other places?"

He has a very gentle personality, and his voice is generous and kind. Just by opening his mouth, he feels like a spring breeze.

"Indeed there are. This carriage is pulled by purebred horses and decorated with silver thread. I'm afraid it's worth a lot, right?" Zhang Rongfang nodded.

Zhao Yanting smiled slightly and said: "Zhang Shoujiao doesn't know something. This solid-colored horse may be extremely expensive in other places. But in my country, where ships from hundreds of countries come and go, the market price of such a thoroughbred horse is less than 30% in other places."

He continued: "In addition, the carriage carriage is also due to the large trade of Erythrina tungii. The price of such a seemingly gorgeous carriage is also far cheaper than other places."

His voice was calm and there was nothing to hide.

Fu Yin, who was also sitting in a carriage beside him, was a white-haired old man in his seventies, holding a short paulownia staff in his hand. A thick white turban is wrapped around the head, and a ruby ​​forehead is worn on the forehead.

Hearing the words here, he also laughed and said: "At least half of the gems, silverware, spices, precious medicines, BMWs, etc. of the Great Spirit come from my Erythrina tree.

Here, there are not many other things, but these so-called extravagances are endless, like the streams in the mountains, which seem to be small, but they are plentiful and never stop! "

"So that's the case. Thank you two adults for clarifying the confusion." Zhang Rongfang said clearly.

Hearing the word "precious medicine", he immediately felt relieved and became interested.

Isn't his purpose of leaving Tianbao Palace to speed up his own development?

And to speed up self-improvement, the Golden Toad Kung Fu is the most important thing.

But now, as long as one finds the main medicine, the Centennial Red Ganoderma lucidum, one can try to make alchemy by himself.

Each layer of the Golden Toad Kungfu requires different pills.

If it weren't for this, he would have been able to directly increase his attribute points like a super-grade foreign medicine.

"However, since Zhang Shoujiao came here, what he should be most concerned about is the disorderly teaching that I caused trouble, right?" Zhao Yanting narrowed his smile and said seriously.

"Please tell the Governor in detail." Zhang Rongfang clasped his fists. Even if he wants to refine alchemy, find medicine, and find secret treasures.

It is also necessary to have a general understanding of the distribution of forces in this place and the situation of the camp, so as not to lose sense of proportion when encountering them.

"My Erythronia has land on three sides and one side into the sea. It is a natural inner bay port.

The flow of people is counted by hundreds of thousands every day, and there is an endless stream of trading ships from various countries, day and night.

There is a lot of trade in goods, and there are many foreigners who do not understand the language. In order to contact the local chamber of commerce as soon as possible, they like to hire various translators and coolie heads.

At the beginning, although there were many translators and coolie heads, they were scattered and could not achieve much success.

But in recent years, a Westerner from Timke has risen rapidly, gathered many people, and formed a big gang called the Chain Gang.

Especially since last year, this chain gang has almost monopolized 80% of the translation and coolie business in the entire port.

If anyone does not invite him, the ship will be chained and cannot leave the voyage or unload the cargo.

We went to mediation several times and were called back. "

"So arrogant? Even the government officers and soldiers dare to move??" Zhang Rongfang was surprised.

This is really strange, the Great Spirit is now in full swing, and there are still people who dare to do it in front of their faces?

"There is also a reason for this. The chain gang seems to be just an ordinary gang on the surface, but behind it, there are experts supporting it."

Zhao Yanting kept his secret and didn't continue talking.

Zhang Rongfang understood in seconds.

In Daling, the only one who dared to treat the officers and soldiers with such an attitude, except the highest clan, who else could it be?

Look at Lingdi dispatching Princess Yongxiang, a master of royal blood, to resolve this matter in person.

Thinking about it now, isn't it just to offset the natural suppression of the blood?

The water is too deep, too deep.

No, I'd better practice alchemy and kung fu honestly, don't come to me for such troublesome things.

Yongxiang's life and death has nothing to do with him, it is still the most important practice.
