Chapter 1517: Chapter 475: Reunion and Bitter Regret, Gathering at the Mufu and Accusations (Part 3)

The Daqin Prince, Hong Yu, ranks first on the Heavenly List, with strength sufficient to compare with the Tribulation Body Realm experts of the Four Vassals, currently the most prominent Xianyang Level in the Moao River.

The key point is that, having served Ji Hong for a long time, Zhang Yuchuan is very aware that Ji Hong has always been searching for Hong Yu’s whereabouts, and from Ji Hong’s occasionally revealed attitude, Hong Yu holds considerable weight in his heart.

Coupled with Lord Jiang’s recent subservience towards Hong Yu, and the Cold Resistance Level experts collectively drawn to the Frost Ash Association by the Little Dragon Head this May, referring to Hong Yu as their Lord, Zhang Yuchuan can somewhat sense that this Lord is not only powerful, but his identity is far from simple.

And he, on the eighteenth of last month, had boldly taken his two sisters away from Hong Yu’s side.

Recalling his actions now, Zhang Yuchuan wishes he could give himself a couple of hard slaps; his actions as an elder brother essentially severing his sisters’ path to greatness...

"Grandfather only mentioned Lord Hong briefly in his letter. Had I known upon returning that he was Lord Hong Yu, how could I have committed such a foolish deed!"

Seeing his two sisters still looking at him in confusion, Zhang Yuchuan’s expression turned exceedingly bitter. However, he couldn’t explain to them, and could only silently apologize to the two sisters in his heart.

Jiang Xinfan quickly arranged and reconvened everyone.

"Alright, let’s get ready to set off! First, we’ll head east to exit the Lu River Valley, then north to Yanling County City. Just use the guise of traders as initially planned, and additionally..."

He holds a public identity as a guest of Adviser Chen Mansion in Yanling County, having no apparent relations with Ji Hong; Chen Hua, Kong Xiu, and the other eight are his family, all having come from the Outer Domain, making a living through trade, all registered as citizens of Chen Cang.

Thinking of the false identity just discussed with Xia Hong, Jiang Xinfan’s expression turned slightly peculiar, and he continued, "The Lord’s temporary false identity is as my Elder Grandson, Jiang Hong. Be mindful of how you address him externally."

The eight people from Great Xia instantly understood Jiang Xinfan’s peculiar expression; they wanted to laugh but restrained themselves upon seeing Xia Hong descend from the sky and get into the carriage, secretly giving thumbs up in front of Jiang Xinfan.

"The Lord posing as Elder Grandson, this advantage, Lord Jiang has gained greatly!"

"Cough, cough..."

Unable to resist, Jiang Xinfan coughed lightly twice, glanced at everyone slightly, then proceeded toward the carriage.

Since the Elder Grandson is in the carriage, he, serving as a grandfather and Family Head, naturally cannot walk.

However, before getting in the carriage, he thought of something and turned to Zhang Yuchuan, saying, "Yuchuan, let your two sisters come up too! Having two maids beside the Eldest Young Master looks more fitting."

Zhang Yuchuan, who was just full of regret, became excited upon hearing this, quickly summoning his two sisters over.

Yet amongst the group, Su Xing’er couldn’t help but frown and purse her lips repeatedly seeing Zhang Yuzhu and Zhang Yuhong entering the carriage.

"Xing’er, you come up too! I have something to ask you."

Upon hearing the voice from the carriage, Su Xing’er’s frowning expression immediately relaxed, a smug smile emerging on her lips, and she swiftly entered the carriage.

The remaining twelve people, including Zhang Yuchuan, naturally became the ones pulling the carriage.

Similar to Cai Qiu, Chen Cang was also a manpower-driven carriage; typically, given the strength of the twelve under Zhang Yuchuan, reducing themselves to pulling a carriage is unlikely, but there’s currently no one else around, leaving no choice.

Once on the main road, passing through villages, outsourcing some Cold Resistance Levels will suffice.

......

The timing in Moao River has not been unified; although the Four Vassals have synchronized the dates, to maintain their unique historical lineage and enhance the cohesion of their vassal populations, they have persistently used their own years.

Interestingly, since the Four Vassals rose similarly timed, the difference in years isn’t significant. For instance, the Caiqiu Calendar differs from the Chen Cang Calendar by only 8 years.

Chen Cang Calendar Year 291, November 1st, daytime

Chen Cang has five prefectures, among which Donglin is the most peculiar.

Donglin County’s peculiarity stems firstly from its central location, being the core hinterland of Chen Cang; secondly, out of the total 160,000 square kilometers of Chen Cang’s territory, Donglin alone covers over 60,000 square kilometers, accounting for over a third; lastly, it’s because it’s the only one among Chen Cang’s five prefectures with two giant cities.

Two giant cities are positioned one south, one central; the central one is the Donglin County City, the southernmost almost bordering Yanling County is the Town City, Chen Cang.

Being a Town City, Chen Cang’s importance and uniqueness are self-evident; as a residence for the Landgrave, it also functions as both the administrative and commercial centers, making this area the most densely populated and concentrated in resources.

Of course, safety goes without saying.

"Halt! The Town City is a crucial place, no trespassing allowed!"

At the south gate of Chen Cang City, more than ten figures rushed from the south, seen a long way by thousands of guarding soldiers at the gates, who promptly called out to stop them.

"I have urgent business, do not block the way!"

However, the group coming from the south seemed rather special, as the leading figure threw down a token from above and directly flew in over the city gate.

The middle-aged man dressed as a general caught the token, recognized the four embossed golden characters, "Yanling County Governor," and his expression immediately changed, quickly bowing to the figure above.

The surrounding soldiers all followed suit, immediately bowing down.
