Chapter 466 It feels so good to have someone to rely on.
P.S.: The date in the previous chapter was June 4th, but I made a mistake and wrote it as the 24th.
Upon entering the courtyard, Chu Qinghe suddenly heard a system notification in his mind.
However, the check-in time had accumulated to another month.
However, Chu Qinghe did not sign in directly, but continued to accumulate.
"I wonder how generous the rewards the system will give if we accumulate a year's worth of time and sign up for the annual pass."
As his thoughts raced, Chu Qinghe felt a surge of anticipation.
After thinking it over, Chu Qinghe walked to the willow tree by the pond in the villa.
After lying down in the chair, Chu Qinghe reached into his robe and took out the Dragon Gold Stone, casually tossing it on the ground.
He then drew dozens of chess pieces from the chess box in the pavilion and condensed them in front of him.
As strands of sword energy were injected into these chess pieces, these originally ordinary pieces suddenly became as bright as crystals.
According to the agreement between Li Chunfeng and Qu Feiyan, Xu Susheng would pass on the message to the Xia Dynasty, using the dragon vein as bait to persuade the Xia Dynasty to loosen its restrictions on the power of heaven and earth in the four states.
But when facing Li Chunfeng and his group, they might not feel quite comfortable.
Wanwan raised an eyebrow and said, "According to what Qu Feiyan said later, the Xia Dynasty is currently embroiled in a struggle for the throne among its princes. Regardless of who wins in the end, the Xia Dynasty's strength will inevitably be damaged. Would that be a bad thing for you?"
Xu Sushi said urgently, "If you want to successfully succeed to the throne, whether it's Yaoyue or Dongfang ascending the throne, you will inevitably need to put on a show to silence the gossip in the heavens. But given your nature, we don't want you to see your actions."
Before realizing the problem outside from Shuimu Xiaoge's words, Wanwan's expression changed slightly, and then she looked at Xu Sushi.
In response to Lin Shiyin's question, Li Chunfeng, inside the carriage, replied calmly, "If it weren't for Baiyin Ji's people, how could they have so quietly controlled public opinion to help Yaoyue gain momentum?"
As the crowd gathered on the outskirts of the city, Lin Shiyin turned her head to Li Chunfeng inside the carriage and said, "Young Master, those people who spoke up for Sister Yue just now look like Baiyin Ji's people!"
However, before turning his gaze away from Chu Qinghe, Li Chunfeng glanced at the sky and frowned deeply.
"But eight months later you received a letter from a friend in the capital, saying that the Song Kingdom had not yet launched an attack, and that it was the newly enthroned Emperor who had done it."
Before Li Chunfeng could look away from the letter, amidst the curiosity of the others, he spoke up: "It's a message from Qu Feiyan. Qu Feiyan said that she would arrange for someone to send a message to the Xia Dynasty in July regarding the release of the power of heaven and earth over the four states. But eight months have passed, and the Xia Dynasty has not responded."
As the sun first appeared, when the chill was still quite strong, the entire city of Yushui was utterly silent.
What shocked them the most was that the new emperor of Xiaoming Kingdom was actually a man.
No sooner had those words been spoken than a middle-aged scholar who had rebuked the man for declaring himself emperor roared in fury, "Nonsense! You are spouting nonsense about strange phenomena and supernatural beings. How can the ruler of a country be determined by such fallacies?"
Upon seeing this, Lianxing felt a sense of relief.
If it were anyone else, wanting to nurture the Purple Dragon Jade Marrow within the Chu Qing River with the power of heaven and earth, they would have no choice but to painstakingly divert their attention to inject the power of heaven and earth into the Chu Qing River themselves.
Sensing Lianxing's gaze, Shuimu Xiaoge blinked heavily and nodded in acknowledgment.
Judging from the current situation, the issue of public opinion before Yaoyue ascended the throne should have been under Yaoyue's control.
According to Li Chunfeng's prediction, the surge in the power of heaven and earth within those four small states should have ended in August or even July.
Clearly, Lin Shiyin met that woman again afterward.
The next day.
Just like now.
When a wisp of sword energy was injected into one of the chess pieces, the sword energy within all the chess pieces was activated and connected to each other as the water rippled outwards.
Upon hearing those words, Long Jinshi and Wanwan all imagined themselves being dragged to the palace by Yaoyue and Dongfang Shibai to learn how to handle government affairs, and the first few of them trembled violently.
Upon hearing this, Li Chunfeng nodded and said, "It's about ruling out that possibility."
"Moreover, when this Zhu was in power, taxes were light. Not to mention places like the capital, even in your Yushui City last year, taxes hadn't increased by seventy percent. Small families had to tighten their belts just to survive."
"Even now, the power of heaven and earth hasn't decreased at all?"
In an instant, strands of the power of heaven and earth were drawn down from the surroundings and entered the array arranged like chess pieces, penetrating into the Dragon Gold Stone.
However, just as the two carriages carrying the group entered the suburbs and picked up speed, Li Chunfeng, inside one of the carriages, suddenly opened his eyes as if he had sensed something.
For Li Chunfeng, all he needed to know was that things would go wrong if everything remained normal.
Lianxing frowned and said, "Is there any response? What kind of explanation is that?"
The area behind the city gate where official notices and lists were posted was packed with people.
Only Yan Lingji, standing to the side, looked at Lianxing and Wanwan with a somewhat knowing expression.
However, it's not yet the end of August, and the power of heaven and earth in those four small states remains the same, with little change in quantity.
Turning her head to look at the people behind the city wall again, Lin Shiyin turned to Li Chunfeng and asked, "You were all in Xiaoming Kingdom on the fourth day of the seventh month. Why did the young master take you all to the palace to find Sister Yue?"
