Fish swimming around the world

It's really an old demon wolf that swallows moonlight.

After leaving Huayang Palace, Jiang Fan's heart became heavier and heavier. He didn't know why Xiaocui was so confident. This old guy was really difficult to deal with.

——

The prince often disappears and disappears, and ordinary people have long been accustomed to it.

Only when he came back this time, the prince was a little different. He had been sitting quietly by the Qinglian Pond for a whole day, without talking or fishing.

The somewhat gloomy weather, coupled with the prince's silence, made the entire mortal residence a bit depressing.

Even Jiang Xiaoyu seemed to feel something and didn't bother him.

At noon the next day, the sun, which had been hiding for several days, suddenly broke through the dark clouds and shed a bright light.

The prince raised his head and squinted at the sun in the sky, his expression slowly becoming relieved.

Seeing his eyes gradually brightening, the old guy finally chuckled, shook his head, and stepped forward with his hands behind his back.

"I'm scared, have you figured it out?"

Jiang Fan nodded: "I figured it out."

The old guy snorted: "I figured out how to eat."

Jiang Fan touched his belly: "Haha, yes, you still have to eat."

The old guy said: "Nonsense, live your life how you want to live, and eat how you want to eat."

Jiang Fan scratched his head: "It makes sense. If you don't worry about the past, you don't have to worry about tomorrow. Just live today well."

The old guy said: "Some things in the world have to be done by someone, and there are always risks. No matter how capable you are, you will do great things, and if you do great things, you will bear great risks. It's just a matter of soldiers coming to cover up the water and the earth."

Jiang Fan turned to look at him: "Oh? Old guy, you are quite philosophical today."

The old man glanced at him: "You are distracted, and there will be troubles if you are distracted. If I had known you would be like this, I might as well have advised you not to provoke me."

Jiang Fan smiled and said: "We are already on the road. What else can we say? Why don't we think about how to walk more beautifully."

The old guy said: "So, how do you plan to be beautiful?"

Jiang Fan held his chin and thought for a while and said, "I can't do anything else for her now, but there are some small things I can do. Make your wife look majestic and beautiful."

The old guy said: "Xiao Cui is facing internal and external troubles now. How do you plan to make her beautiful?"

Jiang Fan said: "At least Taihua's sword discussion must have a front..."

"My old man can tell you that it's not easy for Xiaocui to maintain a good reputation now. There is hostility from all sides and there are not enough manpower. It is difficult to recruit experts to control the situation."

"This battle must be suppressed. If Xiaocui goes to Taihua, the opponent will definitely show his strength. Now Taihua has widely posted hero posts and invited all the world's heroes to watch the battle. This is to show influence and appeal. My wife, how can I Can the momentum be weakened?"

The old guy looked at him: "This scene is also a game, for everyone to see. But on the one hand, Xiaocui is not equipped with enough experts, and on the other hand, many people cannot show up and let people find out the details. What are you going to do?"

Jiang Fan clapped his hands and stood up: "Some things can't be counted on, so just look at it from other aspects. Let's go and eat. After eating, I'll go and take a look around."

That night, the elusive Prince Jiang disappeared again.

But this time, the prince did not go far, but quietly came to the Lishan fiefdom.

In the past two years of construction, the Lishan fiefdom has changed from what it used to be.

The entire Lishan fiefdom covers thousands of square kilometers. Although it is mostly mountains and rivers and is not the endless fertile wilderness, as an independent and autonomous place, its scale is already considerable.

The current Lishan fiefdom was also changed to Lizhou under the empress's decree. The reason given by the empress was that Lishan County was not worthy of Jiang Fan's status. If it was still called a county, wouldn't it mean that Jiang Fan was just a county king? This won't work.

On the land of Lizhou, an unprecedented huge city has been formed, nestled against the mountains and rivers. The two big characters on the city gate are blinding - Lidu.

Called the capital, the empress broke the ancient rules again.

According to ancient rules, even if the princes of the Great Zhou Dynasty were entrusted, they could only be called Li City, but this city was officially named Lidu. This means representing the capital city.

This incident caused some backlash, but the empress had a tough attitude, and others thought they knew it well, so they let her go.

As for the palace inside, normally it can be called Prince Ning's Palace or Prince Zhao's Palace. Given Jiang Fan's identity, it should naturally be called Yi Jian Jian Palace, or Xiaoyao Palace, or something like that.

But something strange happened here again, it was called Xiaoyaoju.

Of course, let alone the so-called six-bu yamen built here.

In short, the infrastructure alone is different and weird everywhere.

Only the real Lidu people now live in the city and are busy all day long. It is difficult for the outside world to see them.

This is true for ordinary people, not to mention those mysterious Lishan bosses. Basically no one knows who it is.

Jiang Fan was not here to visit his fiefdom this time, but to meet a big boss - Gong Shuyu.

As soon as they met, Jiang Fan just said one word.

"Is my hot air balloon okay?"

Gongshu Yu was stunned for a moment: "It's still there and well maintained."

Jiang Fan pinched his chin: "Yes, that's right. Find it, I want to use it."

Gong Shuyu looked at this man's condition and thought that maybe he wasn't wild enough on the ground. Without asking, he arranged for people to start checking and sorting out.

"In addition," Jiang Fan ordered, "immediately arrange for manpower to dress this thing up properly. It's so white and so ugly."

Gong Shuyu was very curious, what are you planning to do? Why do you care about looks?

"Follow this pattern..."

Jiang Fan said, and took out a scroll of canvas from his arms. Gongshu Yu unfolded it and stayed there.

The whole body is pitch black, with a golden phoenix flapping its wings, and there seems to be flames steaming around it.

The black is deep and solemn, and the gold is magnificent and dazzling. When combined together, it looks more majestic and even makes people feel respect.

"This is..."

Jiang Fan smiled slightly: "The future, the Great Qin Emperor Flag."

——

The attention and storm caused by the empress's battle with Lu Ya are amazing.

There are all kinds of speculations about the purpose of this battle.

Some people say that this is the empress's display of force to the world.

Some people say that this is the third time the empress wants to intimidate Taihua after killing the saint and fighting Lingyun.

Some people think that this is the emptiness of the Qin State, and the empress wants to use this to reduce external pressure.

Others think that this is simply the empress's arrogance, challenging the holy land, and her ambition to dominate the world is fully demonstrated.

And so on, there are many opinions.

There are also many opinions about the purpose of Lu Ya's challenge.

Some people say that this is Taihua showing off its power, suppressing the empress, and making her maintain due respect for the holy land.

Others say that this is Lu Ya's revenge for Ling Yun. Ling Yun tied with the empress in the previous battle, but in fact, he had already lost in terms of age. Lu Ya wanted to use this to clear Taihua's name.

Others think that Lu Ya had no choice. As a dignified Jianghu holy land, it can't avoid fighting, right?

And the speculation about the outcome of this battle is even more polarized.
