Xun Sheng sat at the table with a distressed look on his face, looking out the window with boredom. There were only 3,000 soldiers and horses in Qingyang City, which was not enough in the south of the Yangtze River, let alone the whole world.
After Liu Xian and his men have each taken over the strength they can in their own territories, the next target will naturally be a city like Qingyang City.
Thinking that Qingyang City is quite close to Yangzhou Prefecture, only a few days' journey, Xun Sheng couldn't help feeling a little pain.
If the imperial court does not send troops to support him, Xun Sheng, the prefect of Qingyang City, will have only two outcomes.
Either fight to the death relying on the walls of Qingyang City, or surrender and submit to Liu Xian.
"How come the world is in chaos all of a sudden?" Xun Sheng said to himself helplessly.
Bang bang bang!
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Xun Sheng said, "Come in."
Immediately, a yamen runner pushed the door open and walked in, saying, "Sir, a letter has arrived from Chang'an, saying that it must be delivered to Sir Qin to open personally."
"Then there's no need to pass it on to me. Send it directly to the Qin Mansion and give it to Lord Qin."
"yes."
As the man's footsteps faded away, Xun Sheng couldn't help but sigh, "At this point, even if the Seven Star Supervisor officials were in Qingyang City, it would be useless."
…
Qin Yuesheng had just returned to the Qin Mansion from Meteorite Mountain when he saw Cao Zhengchun walk in from outside with a letter. "Master, there's a letter from the government office. They say it's for you and you need to open it yourself."
Qin Yuesheng took the letter and looked at it. His expression suddenly changed. He couldn't help but think to himself, "Why would the Seven Stars Prison in Chang'an send a letter at this critical moment?"
There was no point in thinking too much, so he immediately opened the letter to read its contents.
It turned out that a month ago, the Seven Stars Supervisor had sent a team to investigate something near the Wujiang River in the south of the Yangtze River. However, the team should have returned five days ago. Now the return date has passed, but Chang'an has not seen the team return.
The Seven Stars Supervisor wanted Qin Yuesheng to go over and investigate to see what had happened.
Originally, this kind of thing that did not require dealing with evil spirits would not have fallen on Qin Yuesheng's head, and it could have been handled by Liu Xian, the governor of Yangzhou Prefecture. But now that Liu Xian has rebelled, it is impossible for him to obey the court's orders.
Therefore, this kind of thing naturally fell on the head of Qin Yuesheng, the Bronze Toad official.
The letter also clearly stated what the team of Seven Stars Guards came to Wujiang for.
It was because people had previously seen a divine turtle carrying a snake in the Wujiang River, and a stone coffin floating on the river, with iron chains chained to it.
The people reported these unusual phenomena to the authorities, who then reported them to the Seven Stars Supervisor. This naturally attracted the attention of the Seven Stars Supervisor, who immediately sent people to investigate.
I don’t know what they discovered, but the whole group of people disappeared inexplicably.
Everyone in the Seven Star Prison is an elite, and those above Mu Chan are masters of internal strength. Naturally, the Seven Star Prison cannot just give up on this group of people.
Originally they were planning to send more people to investigate, but they never expected such a sudden change in the world. At this critical moment for the court, the masters of the Seven Stars Prison also had to go to help fight against the rebellion, but they could not spare any manpower to come here, so they had to hand it over to Qin Yuesheng.
"Wujiang, what's going on over there again?" Qin Yuesheng wondered.
The most famous things in Jiangnan are the river, the river and the town.
The river is Gusu River, the town is Jingci Town, and the river is the Wujiang River.
The water of Wujiang River flows from the north, and the current is very fast. Floods often occur, and there are also rumors that there are water ghosts hiding in it. These things can be seen in books of folk stories. Many parents of ordinary families will use the Wujiang water ghost as a bizarre story to make their children obedient and avoid going to dangerous places to play, so as to avoid accidents.
"I don't need to worry about the Twelve Linked Docks, the Jiaolong Gang, and the Tai Sui League for now. The war in Jiangnan hasn't started yet. I can go and investigate when I have time." Qin Yuesheng exerted his internal strength and shattered the envelope in his hand into pieces.
It has to be said that the internal force of a master of internal force can be used in many ways, not just for fighting.
Rest for a day in the mansion, chat with parents, have a meal, so that Qin Feng and Duan Hongjin don't have to worry about the situation in Jiangnan, just live happily.
He went to the Su Mansion to find the little girl Su Lanyin to go shopping and buy some things. The next day, Qin Yuesheng took his various weapons and left Qingyang City.
