Lord: Start with a book of Water Margin

Chapter 656 Situation
At the same time, in Zhao Zhen's fantasy world, the place occupied by Zhao Zhen was suddenly submerged by the surging fog, and Haizhou, Huaiyang Army, Suzhou, Bozhou, Yingtian Prefecture, and the capital area bordering Jingdong on both sides were all visible.

Some brave enough ones entered and found that Jingdong Road had disappeared out of thin air.

Erxian Mountain, Wutai Mountain, and Longhu Mountain seemed to have expected this. Each of the three places took their own approach and were submerged in the fog. Then they rose from the ground and followed Jingdong Road into the void.

Afterwards, thick fog poured out from Jingdong Road, and the entire fantasy world was submerged and disappeared.

When Zhao Zhen landed, the [Spirit of the World] in the treasury soared into the sky. Zhao Zhen saw it and hurriedly placed a circular halo made of jade on the ground in front of the Heavenly God Platform and the Earthly God Platform which were under construction, as he had planned long ago.

This is the foggy passage established between Zhao Zhen and Gao State after his choice.

It was bigger than the one Zhao Zhen had seen in the main world, about ten steps in diameter, and the center of the enclosed circle was also filled with fog. When needed, you could throw the [Spirit of the World] into it or drive it with the power of luck to open it.

Seeing Zhao Zhen appear on the parade ground, Zhao Zhen, who was training on the parade ground, called the Qingyuan Guards in Sandu to meet him. Hu Sanniang, Chen Liqing and Tu Qiao had already ridden their horses over.

Seeing Ji Qingwan and the other three beside Zhao Zhen, Hu Sanniang was surprised and asked, "Sir, can my sister also enter this world?"

Zhao Zhen said, "Of course, the place we are in now is different from before. Has anything changed in the palace since I was away?"

Hu Sanniang shook her head and said, "According to the master's order, everyone is stationed at the garrison to guard against any changes. There are still people coming from the Jiangnan area, and Military Advisor Wu has also been settled down, just waiting for the master to summon him. There have been no other changes."

After hearing this, Zhao Zhen realized that this illusory world seemed to have no effect on the people living in it.

Zhao Zhen said, "From now on, the four ladies, Qingwan, will also live in Baishi Manor. Before I leave, have you clean up Changchun Garden and Qixiang Pavilion? "

Tu Qiao said, "Madam Cheng has already asked someone to clean up the place, and you can move in now."

After hearing this, Zhao Zhen nodded and sent [Black Mountain Moth] Yan Dong'er with a team of people to guard the foggy passage. He told Yan Dong'er to report if there were any changes in the fog.

Then he took Ji Qingwan and the other two to the mountain to settle down. The cook, old woman, maid, and servants that the four had originally brought with them were also left to the eldest brother Zhao Xiang. Accompanied by the steward Zhao Yuanli, the five of them went to the adjacent Changchun Garden and Qixiang Pavilion. Ji Qingwan and Ji Xuan lived in the second courtyard of Changchun Garden, while Ji Minghan and Ji Mingdan lived in the first courtyard of Qixiang Pavilion.

Ji Qingwan asked: "Husband, where is the fantasy world of the four of us now?"

Zhao Zhen pointed to the west side of the courtyard and said, "A palace is being built there. Madam's landscape garden, Madam Xuan's stage, and Minghan and Mingdan's martial arts arena have long been planned. Now it's still a construction site. Madam, please stay here for the time being. I'll take you to materialize the fantasy world in a few days."

As the five people were talking, Cheng Wan'er, who had received the news, brought Zhao Zhen's wives and concubines from the fantasy world to Changchun Garden.

After greeting each other, Zhao Zhen said to everyone, "Go away. I will hold a banquet tonight after I finish processing the backlog of official documents."

Cheng Wan'er, Tong Jiaoxiu, and Princess Jinzhi stayed behind. Cheng Wan'er said to Zhao Zhen, "Sir, Sister Qingwan has just arrived at Baishi Manor and has no close friends. The three of us will take Sister Qingwan to familiarize herself with Baishi Manor."

Zhao Zhen looked at Ji Qingwan and saw Ji Qingwan nodded.

Zhao Zhen said: "That's fine."

Having said that, Zhao Zhen went to the meeting hall.

Wu Yong, Zhu Wu, Pei Xuan, Chai Jin, Jiang Jing and others had been waiting here for a long time. After greeting each other, Zhao Zhen asked, "Everyone, is there any difference?"

Everyone shook their heads, and Zhao Zhen asked, "What's the situation at the border?"

Wu Yong said, "Sir, we have already sent Dai Zong, Ma Ling, Li San, Liu Tong, Wu Neng, and Xu Jin from the scout camp to various places. News will surely be reported back in a day or two." Two days later, the six best runners in Liangshan returned to Baishi Manor and told everyone what they had seen.

After hearing this, everyone was able to accept it. The south, north, and east were originally all sea, but now there was fog rising. Although it was far away from the coast, it was still clear.

There was also fog in the areas bordering Hebei Road and Jingji Road. Dai Zong had someone tie a rope around his waist and walked into the fog himself. For a whole hour, the rope went less than ten feet into the fog and then stopped moving. When he pulled it out, Dai Zong felt like he had been running in the fog.

Everyone was very surprised when they heard this. Fortunately, Zhao Zhen had issued orders to all prefectures to publicize the changes in advance, so there was no chaos.

Zhao Zhen said: "Although we are still in Jingdong Road, it is very different. This world is called the [Floating Continent], and from now on we are a country. In three months at most, there will be monsters, alien species, or other countries in the fog, and they will fight with us."

Wu Yong nodded and asked, "Is this what my husband said before?"

Zhao Zhen said: "I had never come into contact with it before, so what I said was not entirely correct. The extent of the chaos here is beyond what I said before."

Wu Yong said: "Three months?"

Seeing Zhao Zhen nod affirmatively, Wu Yong said: "Sir, now that we have established our own country, why don't you take advantage of this period of time to establish a new year and rule the country?"

After hearing this, Zhu Wu, Chai Jin and others bowed down and asked Zhao Zhen to take charge.

Zhao Zhen said: "This..."

Zhao Zhen hesitated, not because he didn't want to, but because he was concerned about the consequences of proclaiming himself king and establishing a system.

While he was hesitating, Yan Dong'er came in and said to Zhao Zhen, "Sir, the fog is rolling in."

Zhao Zhen heard this and ran out to the foggy passage without explaining anything. Wu Yong and others saw him and followed him.

When he ran to the foggy passage, he saw the fog rolling. Zhao Zhen put in a little luck and a letter appeared in the fog.

Zhao Zhen took it in his hand and read it. It turned out to be from Gao State on the [Floating Continent]. The king saw the coordinates of the fog passage on Zhao Zhen's side and sent a letter to inquire.

After reading it, Zhao Zhen immediately replied, stating his identity and sending it over.

After a while, another letter arrived, saying: Five days later, Gao Bo and his wives will come to visit their relatives, accompanied by more than 300 guards.

Zhao Zhen thought for a moment and finally accepted it.

After showing the letter to Wu Yong and others, Zhao Zhen said, "Student, pass down the military order and ask the governors, military commanders, militia commanders, and officials of all prefectures to come to Liangshan. The time is set in ten days. Find out the rules here, and we will discuss how to act."

"For now, let's maintain the status quo. It won't cost a few days."

Wu Yong and others heard this and agreed.

Zhao Zhen told Ji Qingwan and others the news that Taishan and Taishui were coming to visit. After hearing this, the four of them felt less worried.
