"Taiping County?" Lan Gongliang said calmly, "I've heard of it."
Shen Qing was quite surprised and puzzled, "Then why don't we go to exterminate those demons? Isn't this our duty?"
"Exterminate we must." Lan Gongliang looked Shen Qing up and down and said, "But right now, the demon issue is not urgent for the court. The crucial matter is Huang Tian the rebel. Besides, Taiping County is remote and desolate, a tiny place even if it rots won't matter much, no harm done. We can always go to eliminate the demons later, no hurry."
Shen Qing's heart stirred slightly, showing an enlightened look, "So that's how it is. Thank you, Lord, for the clarification."
Lan Gongliang waved his hand nonchalantly.
He glanced at the sky; the sun was dazzling, right at noon.
"It's getting late, and since no one went out today, how about a feast for lunch together."
"Yes, Lord."
