At the beginning, I gave up my military power with a cup of wine, and I ascended the throne

Chapter 15: Luowang Killer Ruoyan

"In addition, Cao Xiong is guarded by a master of the Profound Realm."

The black robe is humane.

"Tell me about the situation in Shatuo Kingdom."

Xiao Han spoke.

"Shatuo is a branch of the Turkic people, mainly composed of the Shaqiang, Rongnu and Mituo tribes. Among the three tribes, the Shaqiang tribe is the strongest, with 50,000 cavalry, followed by the Mituo tribe, with 20,000 cavalry, and the Rongnu tribe is the weakest, with 10,000 cavalry."

The man in black robes said: "The three tribes are of the same origin and will advance and retreat together. Among the many barbarians in Longxi, they are the strongest."

"The Ruoqiang tribe had offended the Shatuo tribe, and most of their territory was taken away from them, so they had to come to Xiliang to plunder every year."

"Master only needs to deal with the Cao family, and then he can completely control the entire Xiliang."

"Not bad."

Xiao Han chuckled: "It seems that sending you to Xiliang was the right decision."

The man in black robe felt a chill in his heart.

She was wondering at first why Xiao Han would send her to such a bitter and cold place.

But now thinking about it, it seems that everything is under the control of this man.

The imperial court issued an edict, the Battle of Yuyang, and even the rumors in Jizhou.

The more I thought about it, the more terrifying I felt this man was.

It's like a bottomless abyss, you can never see or touch the end.

"Ruoyan, how is Luowang developing?"

The black-robed man paused. She hadn't heard this name for many years.

"I thought the master had forgotten my name."

The black scarf on her face was lifted, revealing a breathtakingly beautiful face, charming yet cold.

Those beautiful eyes were extremely deep.

But Ruoyan felt as if she was naked in front of the man.

She increasingly couldn't see through Xiao Han, the Governor of Xiliang, her master.

"How many years?"

Xiao Han looked at her, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"Ten years."

Ruoyan licked her scarlet lips and said, "This servant has not seen the master for ten years."

"I've wronged you."

Xiao Han suddenly felt sad.

Ruoyan was drawn by Xiao Han during the first system lottery.

Except that her life and death is controlled by Xiao Han, she is the Luowang assassin.

After Ruoyan sent Xiao Han to the northern border, she went to Xiliang alone and founded the Luowang assassin organization.

In other words, this move was already made ten years ago.

"Under Luowang's command, there are ten Heaven-level assassins, all of whom are Xuan-level warriors, three or four Earth-level assassins, and a hundred Human-level assassins."

Ruoyan spoke slowly: "Even the Northern Army has been infiltrated by Luowang."

"Is it possible that you have arranged spies around me?"

Xiao Han narrowed his eyes.

"No."

Ruoyan shook her head.

"Really not?"

Xiao Han waved his hand, Ruoyan lowered her head, walked over and sat next to him.

"I wonder how much your Kung Fu has improved over the years."

Xiao Han chuckled, lifted her chin and looked at her carefully.

"Of course I have improved a lot. If you don't believe me, you can check it out for yourself."

The black robe fell to the ground and the candle went out.

Accompanied by thunder and lightning, violent winds and heavy rain followed.

Two full hours passed before Ruoyan put on her black robe and disappeared into the heavy rain and the dark night.

No one noticed, as if it had never happened.

The candlelight lit up again.

Xiao Han, wrapped in a white robe, stood in front of the window, feeling the wind and rain coming towards him.

The heavy rain fell, and the grass, trees, bamboo and rocks rustled. Beside the pond not far away, some yellow willow leaves swayed.

"Cao family."

He murmured to himself, "Better be sensible."

The strong wind blew raindrops against the doors and windows, and footsteps were heard outside.

"Sir, are you still awake?"

Miaoyu, the personal maid, stood at the door holding a candlestick with a flickering light and called out softly.

"come in."

Hearing Xiao Han's voice, she gently pushed open the door. "It's so late, why aren't you sleeping yet?"

Xiao Han's tone was extremely gentle.

"I had fallen asleep, but was woken up by thunder and lightning. I saw that the light was still on in the young master's room, so I came to take a look."

Miaoyu put down the candlestick, took out the outer robe and put it on Xiao Han.

"It's cold and gloomy in Xiliang at night. Be careful or you'll catch a cold."

……

The next day.

"Open the door."

Inside Xiliang City.

The sky was hazy.

On the streets, last night's rain had not dried up yet, and a drizzle was still falling from the sky. The morning breeze was blowing, mixed with a little coolness.

In the alley in the west of the city.

Two teams of ferocious-looking soldiers were banging on the gate of a mansion. The servants who heard the noise hurried over to open the door.

"What are you doing?"

"This is the residence of the Grand Master."

The servant scolded.

"Bah."

next moment.

He was hit hard by a club and fell to the ground.

Dozens of soldiers rushed into the house, tied up the Xiliang Shaofu who was still sleeping with his concubine in his arms, and took away all the family members and servants in the house.

The captain stood in the courtyard and read out the official document from Xiliang Governor Xiao Han in front of everyone.

"He Zhen, the Xiliang Shaofu, was found guilty of corruption, reselling armor, and colluding with the barbarians. The evidence is irrefutable. He will be taken to the prison and executed in three days."

All family assets were confiscated and deposited into the Xiliang treasury.

The same thing.

It was performed in many places throughout Xiliang.

Ma Dai set out overnight and personally led people to various counties to arrest people.

With the force of thunder, the entire Xiliang County was swept away in an instant.

On the official road leading to Xiliang City.

Every now and then you could see a team of palace soldiers escorting a prison cart with prisoners in shackles and shackles inside.

The people of Xiliang were shocked, and the officials of Xiliang were in a state of panic.

Who could have thought that Xiao Han, the new governor, would set the Xiliang officialdom on fire the day after he took office.

In addition to the personnel provided by Ma Dai and Zhang Lian, there was also the information that Ruoyan found out through Luowang.

So even though Xiao Han had only been in Xiliang for one day, he had already gotten a clear understanding of the details of all the officials here.

When it comes to catching people, he is so precise and efficient.

Ma Dai and Zhang Lian, the two knives, really worked non-stop to express their loyalty.

After arresting this one, they arrest that one; after raiding this house, they raid that house.

Carts filled with wealth, gold, silver and jewelry were transported from all over the place to Xiliang City.

The originally empty treasury was filled in just two days.

Can't even fit.

For this purpose, two warehouses were specially cleared out in the backyard of the governor's mansion to store the proceeds from the confiscation of property.

Just a few days.

There were hundreds of officials and wealthy businessmen imprisoned in Xiliang Prison.

For a while.

The entire Xiliang County was in panic.

For the vacant positions, Pan Yuanshao assessed the talents of each person on the list given by Xiao Han and arranged suitable positions for them.

"General, all the silver in the treasury has been counted."

backyard.

Xiao Han was discussing with Lu Ju, Liao Huan, and Zhuge Shou about sending troops to attack the Ruoqiang tribe.

Pan Yuanshao walked in excitedly.

"Well, looking at your appearance, I know you have a lot of things."

Xiao Han raised his head.

"Tell me quickly, how much silver was seized?"

Lu Ju and others also had hot eyes.

The war is imminent, and as the saying goes, food and fodder must be sent before troops move out. Now everything is ready, except for the money.

There is no money in the treasury right now, let alone fighting the Ruoqiang tribe, it would be good enough if we can maintain the situation.
