Chapter 369 The Capital Moat(1/2)

"Has Your Highness considered this candidate for the opposite role?"

The fifth prince waved his hand: "This matter is simple, just choose one of my younger brothers and sisters."

"Inappropriate." Sun Changming said: "It is best to be a foreign minister, not a member of the royal family, or someone of the same generation as His Highness."

The fifth prince was startled for a moment, then put down his wine glass and said with a bitter smile: "What you said makes sense."

If princes and princesses of the same generation act against each other, they may be misunderstood as "stealing the heir".

"I have someone to recommend, Your Highness can consider it."

"who?"

"Chaotian Si Bei Prison Town Fu Si, Mr. Liang Yuzhi."

Sun Changming kept in mind that there was a sword hanging above his head. Liang Yu pointed out that if he knew that the business between him and the fifth prince amounted to tens of millions of spiritual jade, and all of it went into his own pocket, he did not want to share it with those

A poor cultivator will definitely come to settle accounts with him.

If the candidate for the opposite role is given to Liang Yuzhi, it will be considered as compensation for her.

Moreover, the matter between Liang Yuzhi and Liu Zhi has really come to an end. I have added a large dowry to Mr. Liang. In the end, the one who enjoys the blessing is not Liu Zhi, the freeloader?

Look, what does it mean to be a loyal subordinate? This is a loyal subordinate!

The fifth prince thought about it for a moment and said with emotion: "It's really appropriate. Mr. Liang is obviously a foreign minister, but in fact he is from the Queen Mother. I can speak in front of the Queen Mother." He chuckled and laughed at himself:

"All old ladies like fat grandsons."

Sun Changming raised his wine glass: "If your Highness thinks it's appropriate, I'll go and talk to Mr. Liang Yuzhi."

"good."

The fifth prince had a perverse temperament and wanted to "tip" Sun Changming as soon as they met. As a result, he was suppressed and he lost a lot of money. Inexplicably, he had a bad temper with Sun Changming. Sun Changming gave him some advice and solved the spirit insect competition.

Because of the hidden danger, the two of them drank in this pavilion and waterside pavilion until dusk. The fifth prince was lifted up and sent back by the sixth realm with spiritual energy.

Sun Changming patted the storage bag filled with spiritual jade and went back with satisfaction.

The topic of the third level assessment has never been decided - Sun Changming always suspected that it was because Ji Su lost a big deal, was extremely depressed, and was completely uninterested in official matters!

This guess made Mr. Sun feel very happy.

He even took a special car to take his sister and passed by the gate of Ode Academy again. Sure enough, there was no more scolding owner of the academy, so he laughed and passed by.

Taking advantage of this time, Sun Changming told Liang Yuzhi about the Spiritual Insect Competition. After hearing the plan, Liang Yuzhi looked at Sun Changming warily: "You kid has too many thoughts! I must be careful when cooperating with you in the future.

You're trying to trick me!"

Why does Sun Changming feel guilty?

After procrastinating for another ten days, the questions for the third level assessment were finally decided, but at the same time, a new news spread: the third level is not the final assessment of the Dragon and Snake Ranking, the third level will select the best candidates.

The fifty outstanding geniuses are handed over to His Majesty's Holy Judgment.

As for how His Majesty will judge, there is currently no explanation, and no one dares to make random guesses.

When Sun Changming heard the news, he was so disgusted. Others couldn't understand and were still singing praises, thinking that the genius of this year's Dragon and Snake List might become the "Emperor's Disciple", but in fact Sun Changming knew that this was just for the emperor to see.

If the suppression is not effective, you will end up personally.

Presumably after the third level, Ji Su will still come forward: Do you want to be ranked first? Do you want to go one step further and be number one on the first list? It depends on which of you pays more.

This news made Lord Sun feel extremely bad. During the time he came to the capital, he saw more and more that the regime was extremely sick, with a sense of absurdity and decadence from top to bottom! He had inevitably integrated into this world.

So it is inevitable that I feel a sense of depression trapped in my chest.

"Brother!" The stupid girl jumped in and almost stumbled on the threshold. The look made Sun Changming laugh suddenly. Sun Changyan kicked the threshold angrily, then quickly smiled and pulled her eldest brother's hand.

Sleeve: "Let's go out and play!"

Sun Changming knew it well: "Why don't we go straight to the point? You tell me what you want to eat, and we can save the time on the road."

The silly girl nodded repeatedly, and the elder brother made sense: "I heard that there is the famous 'Fourteen Flavors' on the riverside avenue outside the city. We have eaten in the city before, so let's go out and try it today."

Sun Changming also wanted to go out and relax, so he took his sister's hand and said, "Let's go!"

Yanhe Avenue is a street outside the west city wall of the capital and beside the moat. It surrounds the city along the moat and is more than ten miles long. On one side is the moat and on the other side are a large number of low-rise residential buildings.

The capital gathered people from all over the world in the Wu Dynasty, from the south to the north. Most of the people who came to the capital to seek life were poor. These people could not afford to buy houses in the capital. At first, they gathered in shacks under the city walls to live. Later, slowly

A large bustling area has formed outside the city.

Compared with the city, the houses in these residential areas are low-rise and densely built. The lanes inside are narrow and the terrain is complex, and the people living there are also a mixed bag.

The famous "Fourteen Flavors" on Yanhe Avenue are actually fourteen kinds of particularly famous snacks. People from all over the world gather here, and the flavors from all over the world are integrated. A group of delicacies with both local and capital characteristics gradually emerged.

Hanmei is actually more fond of such street snacks. On the contrary, she has never asked to eat at those famous restaurants in the capital city. Even though her eldest brother is now in a high position, the consumption in these restaurants is completely affordable for him.

.

Their tool for traveling in the capital was Wu Yuanji's machine-drawn carriage. The wheels protruded from the bottom of the car, making it smooth, fast and flexible. There were many such machine-drawn carriages on the streets of the capital, and most of them were better than Wu Yuanji's.

More elegant and luxurious.

It's just that in the eyes of a mechanism master like Sun Changming, the mechanism carriages of those powerful families tend to be superficial and exaggerated, and their performance is much worse than Wu Yuanji's.

Sun Changming even encountered a few carriages with the Jiuyun Sect's logo on the road. Each one was very luxurious. Master Sun secretly laughed, thinking that the Jiuyun Sect was taking advantage of them.

The capital was very prosperous, with pedestrians swarming one after another, and the carriage was not moving very fast. When they were about to leave the city, a figure suddenly jumped out from the side and almost hit their carriage. The figure was also startled and fell in front of the carriage.

, like a frightened deer, turned out to be a little girl about the same age as Sun Changyan.

It's just that compared to Han Mei's current appearance of obvious overnutrition, this girl is thin and small, with a pretty face and a huge look of fear on her face.

Several strong men from behind chased after them, shouting: "Catch the thief!"

"Don't let her run away, dare to steal your Lord Peng's things, and break the legs of your little girl!"

The girl hurriedly got up and was about to run away, but she was already surrounded by those people.

The girl was about to cry and shouted stubbornly: "You are talking nonsense, I didn't steal anything!"

Several strong men came forward with ferocious smiles: "It doesn't matter whether she steals it or not. Arrest her and bring her to the official!"

"If I don't go, you are not good people." The girl shrank back, but her back bumped into another strong man. The strong man laughed, stretched out his big hands and grabbed the girl's collar like a hawk catching a chicken.

"Let me go! You bad guys!" The girl struggled, punched and kicked, like a thin female animal, but how could she break free?

When the surrounding shops saw it, they all looked on with cold eyes. Some kind-hearted people did not dare to cause trouble, but just shook their heads secretly.

The little girl suddenly bit the strong man's wrist, but those strong men had been doing these things all year round and had expected it. The other hand gently held the girl's chin, and then laughed.

On the machine carriage, the silly girl gently grabbed her eldest brother's clothes: "Brother, please save her."

Sun Changming glanced at his sister and asked, "Why? She stole someone else's things. It's right for them to arrest her and go to the officials."

But the silly girl said: "She didn't steal, she is a good person. Those people are the bad guys, they definitely didn't take her to see the official."

Sun Changming smiled and asked, "How did you know?"

Sun Changyan opened her mouth but couldn't give a reason, but she just shook her head stubbornly: "I just know."

Sun Changming's heart moved slightly, but he asked again: "This is the capital, and there are dignitaries everywhere. Behind these evil slaves, there may be a high-ranking official of the Yamen, or a certain royal prince. If we meddle in other people's affairs, we may attract unscrupulous people."

Necessary trouble."

The silly girl hesitated for a while, and finally lowered her head pitifully: "Then... let's forget about it, I don't want to cause trouble to my eldest brother."

Sun Changming smiled, rubbed Han Mei's head vigorously, messing up her buns, and then stood up and got out of the carriage.

A few strong men grabbed the girl and were about to leave, but suddenly they felt a terrifying force coming towards her. With a pop, she was sent flying and she fell to the ground.

The one holding the girl felt a sharp pain in his arm. He was horrified to see that his arm was bent at an abnormal angle, and the girl he was holding had been picked up by someone.

"Ah——" He screamed, and then he was hit again on the face. Half of his face was swollen, and all his teeth were broken.

Sun Changming could tell at a glance that these thieves who specialized in human trafficking in the market were just teasing his sister.

It's just that the stupid girl can decide that the girl is innocent. These strong men are evil people, which makes him find it very interesting.

"Who dares to interfere with our Tianxiao Gang's affairs? Don't you want to live?" A group of strong men did not dare to step forward, but they looked threatening with ferocious expressions.

Sun Changming first put the little girl on his machine carriage, then turned around and showed his token: "I am commanding Simeng Jiang toward the sky. Who is behind you? If you have the ability, ask him to come to me!"

Whenever a gang like this in the market engages in human trafficking, it must be a heinous crime. Now that Sun Changming is in charge, he will definitely not just save this girl. He deliberately reveals his identity directly, in order to directly eliminate this gang.

!

Several strong men helped each other escape, with a sarcastic look on their faces: "A small official from out of town really doesn't know how deep the water in the capital is. If you wait, you are dead! Your whole family is dead!"

Sun Changming's face turned cold, and he grabbed the air. The cracking sound continued, and the bones of several strong men's legs were crushed! They screamed like killing pigs, but they did not dare to say anything more, and helped each other to hurry up.

Went into the alley next to it.

On the street, some shopkeepers who knew the background of the Tianxiao Gang shook their heads and sighed. There are not many good officials willing to help the people these days, and there will be one less one after today.

Sun Changming didn't pay attention to the comments of the people around him. When he returned to the carriage, he found that the little girl was helplessly explaining to the silly girl: "You saved me, I won't steal your preserved fruit snacks, you really don't have to do this."

Protect..."

The silly girl was still extremely vigilant, holding a plate of assorted preserved fruits and a box of frosted sugar pastry snacks on the small table of the carriage.

Sun Changming shook his head speechlessly, you asked me to save her, you said she was a good person, but when she came up, you guarded her like this.
To be continued...
