The first top lady

Lu Qishan may have a good personality, but he will never be weak.

How could someone who could control a force in this cannibalistic forbidden area be a good person?

But there is no denying his good intentions.

Judging from the fact that the Lanlu League was the first to stand up and express its "submission" to Qiongtian Yuzhe, it is true that the Lanlu League is not in the same team as the Heili Hall.

Song Yixuan decided to go and take a look.

Guan Qian said cautiously: "Just in case, it is better to bring a bodyguard with you."

After all, Lu Qishan was a shrewd and cunning man, and he was afraid that he would fall into his trap.

"They invited you to dinner." Song Yixuan walked out without turning his head, "You're bringing people over here to fight?"

Guan Qian gave up the idea of ​​having a bodyguard accompanying him and only brought a driver to drive the car.

Coming out of Qiongtianyu, the car drove in the opposite direction of the most prosperous area in the forbidden area. The main road had come to an end, and the muddy dirt road in front of us was after the rain.

The rice fields on both sides extend into the distance, creating a good scene with good weather and good harvest.

Busy figures gradually appeared in the rice fields ahead. The car stopped, and two disciples of the Blue Union opened the door and welcomed Song Yixuan and Guan Qian to get out of the car.

"Master Jin, Miss Song, our leader is still planting rice in the fields. Tea and snacks have been prepared under the pavilion. You two can follow me to rest for a while, and then follow Leader Lu back to Wushi Courtyard to enjoy dinner."

"Okay." Guan Qian turned his head and glanced at Song Yixuan, and the two walked towards the pavilion together.

Seeing that Song Yixuan's eyes were fixed on the people in the field, the Lanlu League disciples pointed to a man in his fifties who was wearing light-colored cloth and a bamboo hat, and was planting rice with his back to them and was about to finish planting, and said, "That's our leader Lu."

"Your leader is quite down-to-earth." Song Yixuan said.

This overturned her impression of the five major gang leaders in the Forbidden City. Not only were they not cruel, but they were very friendly to the people.

"Yes, our leader is very approachable." He seemed quite proud of being a disciple of the Lanlu League.

"Alliance leader, Master Jin and Miss Song have arrived."

Lu Qishan straightened up, turned his head to look in the direction of the pavilion, handed the seedlings in his hand to his disciple, and instructed: "Finish planting this field." He walked up the ridge of the field, washed his muddy hands at the well, and continued to walk towards the pavilion.

With his sleeves and trouser legs rolled up, he really looked like a simple "farmer uncle".

"Miss Song, Master Guan, welcome to visit us."

After all, Lu Qishan is the leader of one of the five major gangs, and he is much older than Guan Qian, so calling him "Master Jin" is really not appropriate.

Guan Qian said: "The granary built by Alliance Leader Lu has made the Forbidden City self-sufficient in food. I have long wanted to come and see it."

"The scenery here is nice. You can come here often in the future." Song Yixuan said and looked at Guan Qian.

"Okay." Guan Qian nodded slightly, with a gentle smile on his face.

Lu Qishan's gaze fell silently on Song Yixuan. He silently looked at the girl in front of him whom he had suspected for a long time, but now felt more and more familiar.

He looks like an old friend!

He quickly retracted his gaze and said, "Let's go to Wushi Courtyard together. I think they have almost prepared dinner."

Not long after the car drove, a small village appeared in front of us. The villagers living there all looked like hardworking farmers. The houses were all one- or two-story self-built houses without any gorgeous decorations. They were as ordinary as could be.

If Lu Qishan hadn’t explained it, who would have thought that this entire village was the Lanlu League?

There is a low hill at the southernmost part of the village, and under the hill is a large farmyard. Compared with the rows of slightly cramped yards that we passed by before, this farmyard is comparable to a wealthy manor.

This is the residence of the leader of the Lanlu League - Wushi Courtyard.

The word "small" is very misleading.

Wu Shi Courtyard has ten main rooms, five east and west wing rooms, and several utility rooms in the backyard, all built with bamboo and cool and ventilated.

The front yard surrounded by bamboo fences is even brighter, with chickens and ducks in pens on the left and a vegetable patch on the right. The center of the yard is filled with tables and chairs, and a large table more than 20 meters long divides the yard symmetrically.

When Song Yixuan and Guan Qian moved into the Wu Shi courtyard, the sun was setting in the west, and people were coming and going between the west wing and the table in an endless stream.

Soon, the yard was filled with the aroma of delicious food, and the table was already filled to the brim.

As the sky gradually darkened, the light strips in the yard lit up, and countless twinkling lights made the quiet yard even more leisurely and peaceful.

Lu Qishan sat alone in the main seat, picked up the wine bowl on the table, and toasted Song Yixuan and Guan Qian on his left together with the leaders of the Lanlu League.

After the toast, he announced, "Tonight is just a gathering of friends. We won't talk about work. Let's drink and have fun."

The other leaders of the Blue Alliance said in unison: "Thank you, Alliance Leader!"

Why is this scene a bit shocking?

Song Yixuan turned his head towards Guan Qian and whispered, "It seems that he governs well."

"He really did a good job in sharing happiness with the people," said Guan Qian.

The hierarchy of the Lanlu League is not as strong as that of the other four gangs. As long as the league rules and taboos are not violated, Lu Qishan will still be very merciful.

This meal could be considered a "farmhouse feast". Song Yixuan enjoyed it very much. "It's much better than the exquisite dishes made by your chef."

"Oh, really?" Guan Qian raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Song Yixuan meaningfully with a dragging tone.

Why is it called "your home" now?

Before this, Song Yixuan had always claimed that the Qiongtian jade piece was "mine".

It turns out that when good things happen to her, she says that Qiong Tian Yuzhe is hers, and when bad things happen to her, she says that Qiong Tian Yuzhe belongs to Guan Qian, right?

Guan Qian chuckled, looked at Lu Qishan, and said shamelessly: “Alliance Master Lu, your chef is a good cook, lend him to me for two days.”

"You like my chef?" Lu Qishan raised his hand, and the disciples behind him immediately invited the chef over. "Old Liu, you will go back with Master Guan in a while. Bring out your best cooking skills. If you need any wild game, just ask Xiao Zhang to deliver it to you."

"Okay, leader."

"This excellent cooking skill also requires excellent ingredients. These are the poultry we raise ourselves, as well as the game and mushrooms we hunted in the mountains. Without these, this taste cannot be achieved." Lu Qishan said.

"This doesn't look like the Hongmen Banquet." Song Yixuan felt that Lu Qishan was quite sincere.

"Yeah." Guan Qian nodded and added tea to Song Yixuan.

Because Song Yixuan didn't drink alcohol, he also started drinking tea.

However, he did not think about drinking. After all, he was treating this dinner as a "Hongmen Banquet".

At this point, they have not completely let down their vigilance and alertness.

After dinner, Lu Qishan took Song Yixuan and Guan Qian to visit the Wu Shi Courtyard, and then invited Song Yixuan to play chess with him.

Song Yixuan and Guan Qian looked at each other.

Is Lu Qishan's purpose beginning to be revealed?

"I regret not being able to attend the last competition in person. But I see that you are an excellent chess player." Lu Qishan explained, "In this forbidden area, it is difficult to find anyone to play chess with. Sometimes it is really lonely."

"If Alliance Leader Lu thinks that being able to flip the chessboard is considered a sign of excellent chess skills, then I would be happy to accept this compliment." Song Yixuan said with a smile.

During the competition, Lu Qishan only watched her solve the chess game through video, and she didn't move a single chess piece, so it was difficult to judge whether she could play chess or not. How did Lu Qishan know that she could play chess, and even had excellent chess skills?

That only meant that Lu Qishan’s invitation to her to play chess now was fake.

Lu Qishan probably wanted to ask her something under the pretext of playing chess.

“No!” Lu Qishan said with certainty: “You can definitely play chess!”

Song Yixuan just smiled and said, "Okay, let's play two games."

Guan Qian was accompanying Song Yixuan in the bamboo house, but Lu Qishan's attention was only on the chessboard.

But more of it is about the doubts in my heart.

He asked tentatively, "Are you from the Imperial Capital?"

"No." Song Yizhen lowered his eyes and said, "I'm from Linhang."

Lu Qishan paused after placing the chess piece, then retracted his fingers from the chessboard and said with a smile: "Actually, I am from Imperial Capital."

I was even more confused, thinking: She is not from the Imperial Capital? Did I recognize the wrong person? But I definitely saw the shadow of that little girl in her.

"Oh?" Song Yixuan's eyes were still wandering on the chessboard, "So we are compatriots."

Lu Qishan said with a smile: "The genes of this kind of field are still very obvious. This place used to be a wasteland."
