The seventh son of the Shen family was as famous as his brothers, but his fame was different from his brothers'. It was a kind of fame that made people sneer at him.
"Sir, the Shen family was confiscated and exiled a few months ago?"
Thinking of the news that came from the capital a few months ago, the legal advisor looked at Magistrate Luo in confusion.
Magistrate Luo frowned and turned to look at Jian Guangqi.
"You mean...the seventh son of the Shen family is King Qianhuang."
He didn't believe it, but Jian Guangqi couldn't possibly make up nonsense about this matter.
The lawyer also turned to look at Jian Guangqi, his eyes full of confusion.
Jian Guangqi looked at the two people's disbelief and smiled.
"Yes, King Qianhuang treats soldiers and civilians well. Joining King Qianhuang is your best choice right now."
As he spoke, Jian Guangqi raised his hand and pointed behind him.
"Do you think Fanjing City can withstand 300,000 golden armored soldiers?"
Magistrate Luo looked at Jian Guangqi in shock and asked in disbelief,
"But...wasn't the Shen family confiscated and exiled? How could he..."
He was really shocked that a useless playboy could become the King of Qianhuang.
He thought that King Qianhuang might be Zhong Erfei, and he also thought that it might be Prefect Deng, but he never expected that King Qianhuang was actually the seventh son of the Shen family.
He couldn't remember the name of the seventh son of the Shen family.
Jian Guangqi smiled faintly, "Prefect Luo, please don't ask any more questions about this."
There was no way he could explain the plane incident to Magistrate Luo.
"We've been friends for so many years, there's no need for me to lie to you. You won't regret following King Qianhuang."
After saying this, Jian Guangqi looked at Magistrate Luo with a smile on his face.
At this time, Magistrate Luo's mind was twisted into a knot.
How could this all be so unreal?
How come the seventh son of the Shen family became King Qianhuang and gained Jian Guangqi's support?
The key point is how did the Shen family, who should have been confiscated and exiled, cross Fanjing City and appear in Qianhuang City?
Although the master was also confused, he had no time to think about it when he saw the huge army in front of him.
"grown ups!!"
The master looked at the stunned Magistrate Luo and quickly pulled his sleeve.
"Open the city gates quickly! Why are you keeping King Qianhuang waiting so long?"
"The Shen family is very loyal and has great prestige in the army. I think the seventh son of the Shen family must be the same."
Magistrate Luo came back to his senses, frowned and looked at the army in the distance, took a deep breath and shouted in a deep voice,
"Open the city gates and welcome King Qianhuang!!"
After saying this, Magistrate Luo bowed to Jian Guangqi and said,
"Thank you, Military Advisor Jian, for your advice. I'd like to ask you to put in a few good words for me in front of King Qianhuang."
Jian Guangqi curled his lips and smiled, "Of course, Magistrate Luo, don't worry!"
Magistrate Luo raised the corner of his mouth, gave Jian Guangqi a dry laugh, turned around and walked towards the city gate tower.
"Let's go and welcome King Qianhuang!"
With a creaky sound, the heavy and old city gate slowly opened.
Prefect Luo led the defenders out of the city gate, knelt down, and waited for the arrival of King Qianhuang's army.
Before, Governor Liu had advised him but he refused to listen, which resulted in King Qianhuang's army being stranded at the city gate for so long.
Now that he is willing to submit to King Qianhuang, he naturally has to be more humble so that King Qianhuang can see his sincerity.
Magistrate Luo knelt on the ground with his back straight, his eyes fixed on the approaching army, his heart pounding.
He thought about it a lot, but he never expected that King Qianhuang was actually a member of the Shen family, and the seventh son of the Shen family who was looked down upon by everyone.
However, since the Shen family was harmed so badly by Emperor Tianwu, it is normal for them to rebel.
The Shen family prospered for so many years, but was completely wiped out by Emperor Tianwu in just a few years. Anyone would be angry.
Back then, General Shen's sons came out one after another, and each of them was so good at fighting. People in the entire Great Celestial Empire were shocked.
Especially when they started to make achievements in the military camp at a young age, who would not say "General Shen is so lucky" when seeing him?
No one expected that Emperor Tianwu would be intolerant of military generals.
In theory, the Shen family is so powerful that they can be defeated and dispersed to different cities, and the military power in their hands can be reduced. There is no need to kill them all.
Emperor Tianwu was really cruel!
The seventh son of the Shen family might have been protected by his father and brothers before, so he was willing to be a playboy.
Later, when such a big change happened to the Shen family, it was normal for the child to awaken.
Just as Magistrate Luo was thinking about the past of the Shen family, the sound of horse hooves stopped in front of him.
Prefect Luo paused and knelt hurriedly, "Prefect Luo Taian of Fanjing City pays homage to King Qianhuang!!"
A full sense of oppression came over them. The officials behind Magistrate Luo, such as the advisor, did not even dare to look up. They just dropped their hands to the ground and began to kowtow.
"Greetings to King Qianhuang!!"
Chen Yong lowered his eyes and glanced at Magistrate Luo, "No need to be polite!"
"Master Luo, lead the way!"
Magistrate Luo was stunned for a moment, then pursed his lips and said, "...Yes!"
Just lead the way, it’s his own fault for refusing to join King Qianhuang before.
Now that he is posted, it is normal that people don’t take him seriously.
Jian Guangqi looked at the embarrassed face of Magistrate Luo, smiled and extended his hand to him.
"If you don't mind, Lord Luo, please ride on the same horse with me."
Magistrate Luo looked at the hand that suddenly stretched out in front of him, was stunned for a moment, and looked up at King Qianhuang.
Seeing that King Qianhuang had no intention of stopping him, Prefect Luo slowly placed his hand in Jian Guangqi's palm.
Jian Guangqi curled his lips into a smile and pulled Magistrate Luo onto the horse's back.
Although it looked a bit awkward for two grown men to ride on the same horse, it was more respectable than having him trot ahead to lead the way.
Magistrate Luo, riding on horseback, took a long breath and said softly, "Thank you!"
"You're welcome." Jian Guangqi smiled and shook the reins, leading the way with Magistrate Luo.
After the horse walked a few steps, Jian Guangqi said softly,
"Lord Luo, there's no need to be nervous, and don't worry that the prince will embarrass you."
"The prince doesn't care about rules that much, as long as you are loyal."
"I don't mean to humiliate you by asking you to lead the way. Old Deng has led the way for the prince many times before."
As a fellow civil servant, Jian Guangqi naturally knew what Magistrate Luo was thinking.
However, in this matter, Magistrate Luo did misunderstand King Qianhuang.
The reason why King Qianhuang asked Prefect Luo to lead the way was that he wanted Prefect Luo to go to the prefectural yamen with him to discuss things.
"...I know." Magistrate Luo curled his lips and laughed dryly, "Even if the prince humiliated me, I deserved it. Who made me not know what was good for me before?"
Faced with Jian Guangqi's comfort, Magistrate Luo felt extremely relieved.
Judging from how comfortable Jian Guangqi is in front of King Qianhuang, he should have some status in front of King Qianhuang.
As long as he maintains a good relationship with Jian Guangqi, he will not have a hard time in the future.
