Chapter 8 You Have Been Deceived Sometimes
Chapter 8 You Have Been Deceived Sometimes
There are almost no people on the border of Shu Kingdom. A little further in, there are some old, weak, sick and disabled. When we get to the main city... there is no such thing as the main city. Few buildings are complete. But there were some residues of gunpowder on the ground, and it looked quite quiet, probably in the midst of a truce.
At this time, a ten-year-old boy was holding a bag of steamed buns, and walked along the edge of the dilapidated house with a slight bend. Noticing himself, he packed up quickly and continued on his way, then suddenly froze, then looked at him, and was immediately stunned.
He ran to Luan Shang's side, and when he met Luan Shang's gaze, his smiling face suddenly became inexplicably stiff. Before he could open his mouth, Luan Shang spoke first.
Luan Shang: "How about everyone?"
Child: "In the Misu Temple outside the city." Sure enough, His Highness is still so smart, you don't need to ask me who I am.
Luan Shang: "I passed by there when I came, only a few old people and people who seemed to be sick were still there."
Child: "Impossible, when I come, cough!..." The child's eyes suddenly froze, and he silently looked down at his hands and feet, not only talking to himself but also telling Luan Shang, "These red dots, so It really wasn't a bug bite... I don't have to lie to myself anymore..."
Luan Shang muttered silently in his heart, Shu Guo was hopeless.
The child ran away, but Luan Shang didn't intend to pay attention to it, he was not the savior, he didn't want to take care of things that he shouldn't take care of, and he didn't have the energy to do it.
Luan Shang walked to the front of the palace, but there was no one at the door, Luan Shang couldn't help being surprised, after pushing open the heavy door, what came into his eyes was a scene of desolation that was full of silence, looking at everything in front of him, Luan Shang couldn't help but be surprised. I can't even recall my memories, and I was about to leave when I suddenly found someone around the corner in front of me.
He walked over and found that the man was Huo Ranlang.
Huo Ranlang looked at Luan Shang, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, excited and flustered.
Huo Ranlang: "Why are you here?"
Luan Shang answered truthfully: "I was in the Yan Kingdom, and I met those people I arranged to be next to the King, who assassinated the King of Yan, and the identities of the people of the Shu Kingdom were exposed. They believed that I was a good person, but they were worried about keeping me. I came back by myself. But now...here?"
Huo Ranlang frowned delicately: "You shouldn't have come back!"
Luan Shang was stunned for a long time, and froze where he was, not knowing what to say.
Huo Ranlang suddenly calmed down: "Sorry, I was too aggressive, but I want to say, you can't go back..."
Without Luan Shang asking what's going on, Huo Ranlang explained it by himself, "The king is dead, and the useless child's position is all fake. Not long after I led the uprising, not to mention the city, the domestic plague was rampant, and it was barely under control at first. , but the current situation has developed into an uncontrollable situation. Half a month ago, there was no news from the king and several hidden guards, and soon, the whole country was dispersed."
For a moment, Luan Shang felt that the amount of information was too much, and it couldn't be connected with what he knew: "Then what's the situation now?"
Huo Ranlang: "Now the territory of our country is no more than two cities, and the plague is difficult to control. Other countries do not want to accept management and adopt isolation methods to prevent people from our country from going to other countries and let us develop ourselves. Those people in the royal family either became lunatics who died in the palace, or disappeared. People in the palace still gather here to avoid the plague. I was also taken in by a friend who was in the former guard. But now in the treasury The food can't last long, I think...how about I don't implicate them, and let's go first."
Luan Shang was puzzled: "But they called me back, saying that the father just couldn't let go."
Huo Ranlang chuckled a few times: "You were deceived at times too, did you get deceived because of your insecurities? They really took refuge in the king a long time ago. When I rebelled, I never received any information from them. They asked you to come back, but they just don't want you to interfere with the king's next activities."
Luan Shang: "But..." He suddenly figured it out. The fact that the plague in Shu Kingdom was uncontrollable was only reported about half a month ago. Well, he may not have believed in himself from the beginning, he was just observing himself in secret, so how could he mention the news of Shu Kingdom in front of him.
As for the folks, such important news, without the decision of the king, will not be easily let the people know, because the people know these things, it is still uncertain what will happen, and when I left the city, I was asked to go to the city. Well, at that time, I said I was going to another country, and I was asked if I would come back, and I said maybe not, and then I was told that if I wanted to come back, I had to bring the stamps stamped on the gates of other countries. only then.
Then everything will be sorted out.There are so many information points.
First, in fact, the country of Shu was extinct long ago, but the plague was difficult to control, and other countries have adopted the practice of temporary isolation.
Second, Ye Genming didn't know the news, Xie Qiaoyu knew the news but didn't tell him, the news was also blocked by the military, and the common people didn't know about it, so Luan Shang didn't know about it.
Thirdly, the spies that Luan Shang arranged to be next to the king had long since defected to the king.
Fourth, the "spies" saw that they were ignorant of the facts, and in order to prevent themselves from interfering with the king's actions, they deceived themselves to Shu Kingdom.
So, what to do now...
