ALL NOVEL Chapter 23 Jiang Taigong fishing
"Jingsi, Gongran, tell me what you have learned in Hanyang City. Tell me what you have learned."
Li Cunxiao and Luo Cheng arrived in Hanyang City before him, and they had some understanding of the situation in the city.
These latest news are what he wants to know.
"Yes, my lord!" Li Cunxiao and Luo Cheng nodded, the former glanced at the latter, and took the lead in speaking.
Qin Qiong and others also listened patiently, including Lu Wushuang, the Princess of Pingxi.
As Li Cunxiao and Luo Cheng told the news they knew, Lu Fan learned more about the current Hanyang City.
Like other cities, Hanyang City is divided into five major areas, namely East City, South City, West City, North City and City Center.
The so-called city center area is the area where the County Governor's Mansion is located.
The County Governor's Mansion represents the Daqian Dynasty and is the owner of Hanyang City, in name.
In addition to the County Governor's Mansion representing the Daqian Dynasty, there are five major forces in Hanyang City.
These five major forces are the Li Family, the Sun Family, the Wang Family, the Zhao Family and the Tianxiang Chamber of Commerce.
The four major families of Li, Sun, Wang and Zhao are located in the four regions of Hanyang City, namely the southeast, northwest and northeast.
Nearly half of the shops and businesses in these four regions belong to these four major families.
It is no exaggeration to say that these four major families almost control all the business lifelines of Hanyang City.
In other cities in the Daqian Dynasty, the prefecture governor's office is respected, but here the four major families are respected.
The four major families' right to speak in the four regions of Hanyang City is much more important than the prefecture governor's office.
Maybe some people don't know who the new prefecture governor is, but no one doesn't know who the head of the four major families is.
As for Tianxiang Chamber of Commerce, one of the five major forces, it is quite special.
The four major families fight openly and secretly, fight constantly, and seek various interests.
However, Tianxiang Chamber of Commerce never participates in the affairs of the four major families, nor does it participate in other things in the city.
And the four major families never provoke Tianxiang Chamber of Commerce.
There are industries of Tianxiang Chamber of Commerce in the four regions of southeast, northwest and northeast, and the four major families dare not touch them.
...
After Li Cunxiao and Luo Cheng finished their stories, Lu Fan narrowed his eyes slightly, and his eyes flashed.
"The Li family, the Sun family, the Wang family, the Zhao family, it's really lively, and there's also this Tianxiang Chamber of Commerce... What kind of power is it!"
It's clear that the Tianxiang Chamber of Commerce is definitely related to Tianxiang Tower and Tianxiang Garden, and they all belong to the Tianxiang power.
When he was in Pingchuan City, he received a message from a mysterious person.
According to the message on the note, the Tianxiang power can provide him with shelter when he encounters danger.
However, he still remains skeptical about this news.
While Lu Fan was thinking like this, Luo Cheng seemed to have thought of something interesting and said with a smile:
"By the way, my lord, a strange man appeared in Hanyang City these two days, which caused quite a stir."
"Strange man?"
"Yes, the strange man is an old man. He appeared in Jinli Lake in the east of the city two days ago, sitting cross-legged by the lake with a straight hook fishing rod in his hand to fish.
The old man claimed to be a divine fortune teller who could predict life and death.
No one believed it at first, but later he predicted good and bad luck for more than a dozen people and calculated their life experiences, which were not wrong at all..."
When Luo Cheng said this news, a strange look suddenly appeared on Lu Fan's face.
This Jiang Taigong's appearance was really special.
There was a legend in the history of the previous life that Jiang Taigong fished and those who were willing to take the bait were caught. I didn't expect that he could not escape such a drama even after being summoned by himself.
It seems that I have to play the role of that fish!
Thinking of this, he felt inexplicably excited, as if he had participated in a famous scene in the history of the previous life.
He immediately stood up and said with an interesting smile:
"Let's go and meet this divine fortune teller and let him tell my fortune!"
Seeing Lu Fan say this, the others also stood up, showing an interested look on their faces.
After all, such a strange person is rare to meet. Since you have met him, you naturally want to see him.
Fei Yi, Wang Hun, Xiang Chong and Duan Yu did not follow. They were arranged to stay in the County Governor's Mansion.
Although there was no accident in the County Governor's Mansion at this moment, Lu Fan always felt that there was an unknown dangerous crisis hidden in the mansion.
Therefore, he left Fei Yi and the other four, and took a hundred temporary guards and eight Xuanwu guards to thoroughly investigate the County Governor's Mansion.
Lu Wushuang followed Lu Fan and others with Wu Wei.
Calling him "brother" and "cousin" all the time made Lu Fan feel annoyed.
The more Lu Wushuang behaved like this, the more vigilant he became in his heart.
Because he knew clearly that this cheap cousin was definitely not a naive person.
He even began to doubt whether his cheap third uncle, the King of Pingxi, had any idea of rebellion.
Since ancient times, the royal family has been less affectionate and more calculating. There are countless cases of princes holding their own troops and plotting rebellion.
The King of Pingxi controls the Zhenxi Army, one of the four elite armies of the dynasty, and guards the western border of the dynasty. How could he not be suspicious?
A moment later, Lu Fan and others, led by Luo Cheng, walked to the Golden Carp Lake in the east of the city.
The Golden Carp Lake is famous for the many golden koi in the lake.
It is rumored that these golden koi are related to the legendary real dragon, and contain rare real dragon blood in their bodies.
At first, many people believed this rumor and caught the golden koi in the lake to taste.
Later, it was proved that the rumor was false, and the taste of golden koi was extremely unpalatable, so no one went to catch it.
After Lu Fan and his party arrived here, they suddenly saw thousands of civilians and monks gathered in three layers by the lake.
Looking at the black mass of heads, Lu Fan could not help but shook his head helplessly.
This is too high-profile, completely contrary to his original intention of wanting to be low-key!
But since he has come here, he can't help but be high-profile, and... this may not be a bad thing!
Thinking of this, Lu Fan looked at Li Cunxiao beside him, who immediately understood and stepped forward.
As Li Cunxiao walked forward, the crowd blocking the front involuntarily retreated to both sides.
The crowd pushed away by the invisible force turned around and wanted to curse.
But when they saw Li Cunxiao, who was six feet six tall and full of beards, they were immediately frightened and stopped, lowered their heads and did not speak.
In this way, under the leadership of Li Cunxiao, Lu Fan and his party successfully arrived at the front.
I saw an old man with a bamboo hat and a youthful face sitting cross-legged under a tree by the lake.
Holding a straight-hook fishing rod, with eyes slightly closed, his expression was calm and composed, and his immortal temperament was impressive.
Seeing this scene, Lu Fan could not help but nod secretly.
Apart from anything else, Jiang Taigong's appearance was much more impressive than Qin Qiong, Li Cunxiao and others.
In this case, I will light the first fire to reach the northern border here.
Thinking of this, Lu Fan coughed lightly and stepped forward, stopping two meters away from Jiang Taigong.
Then, under the gaze of everyone, he coughed lightly and bowed to the immortal Jiang Taigong...
