The day before, there was still a peaceful scene in the capital, but now, there is a faint atmosphere of chaos.

The three of them arrived at the Zhiqu Garden, and then waited patiently for news.

The emperor and the seventh princess have already started to deal with the traitors, there are four major mansions in the city, and there is a city guard army outside the city, they have so many people available, I believe that it will not be long before the situation will be stabilized.

However, Wu Song feels that a bigger crisis is yet to come.

In the evening, the seven princesses finally came to the Zhiqu Garden. She was dressed in a military uniform, and there were still undried blood stains on her face, which was enough to see the fierceness of the daytime battle.

"The three of you have been waiting for a long time, I just came back from the city, I heard that you want to see me, I rushed here immediately, I don't know what happened to the three of you?" said the Seventh Princess.

Wu Song asked a eunuch in the Zhiqu Garden to guard outside the palace gate, and as soon as he saw the seventh princess, he told him that he wanted to see her.

"Princess, what's the situation in the city now?" Wu Song said straight to the point.

"Basically, it has been settled, and all the ministers in the city have been protected by us with heavy troops, and they are safe. The seventh princess said, it is said that this is good news, but the seventh princess frowned, and there was no trace of joy on her face.

"Princess, what about those traitors?" Wu Song asked, looking at the princess's face, he had actually guessed the answer.

"Some traitors have been caught, but they are all inconsequential minions, and the main traitors have fled before my father and I have gathered our men to arrive. The Seventh Princess said.

"I see, then it seems that the target of those traitors is the emperor and the six ministers. When the blow failed, they quickly withdrew. Before they acted, they must have envisaged the worst-case scenario and had already formulated corresponding countermeasures. Wu Song analyzed.

"Shaoxia is right, I think so too. The Seventh Princess said, "And, but I think that although they didn't catch their father, the plan can be said to have been largely successful." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Wu Song said.

"One of the six ministers was the Minister of Military Aircraft in charge of border defense, and he had been killed, and we found that his study had been searched, and many important defense documents had been stolen. The Seventh Princess looked at Wu Song with a worried expression, "I estimate,

The rebellion in the capital is only part of the whole plan, at the same time as the rebellion here in the capital, the army of the Earth Circle Empire has already driven to the border, and at this moment it must have launched an attack on the Tianyun Commandery.

Four of the six ministers died, and the imperial court was in a state of semi-paralysis, unable to command the border soldiers in a timely and effective manner, and it was the most opportune time to launch an attack at this time.

The ultimate goal of the Earth's Circle Empire's plan this time is to invade my Tianyun Monarchy. ”

As soon as the princess said this, everyone present was in their hearts. Li Tian and Hua Xing were both taken aback, the emperor was in distress and the minister was killed, which was already a big deal for them, but they didn't expect that there were bigger things waiting behind.

Wu Song was not much surprised, he had already expected that the Dihuan Empire would make such a big battle, and it would definitely not be just to assassinate the emperor and ministers, there should be a back-up move.

It seems that he has the right idea.

"If the border pass is attacked, then the soldiers guarding it will definitely send someone to report the news to the imperial court and ask for instructions on the next strategy against the enemy. But now that the court is in chaos, their pleas may not be answered immediately.

In that case, I am afraid that the morale of the soldiers at the border pass will be affected, and if the people of the Dihuan Empire make a fuss about the rebellion in the capital and launch a propaganda offensive at this time, the consequences will be really unimaginable.

Princess, you must immediately send someone to the border to stabilize the situation. ”

Wu Song said.

"I think the same way, I thought about it on the way here, and I decided that I would go to the border tonight. The seventh princess said resolutely.

"You?" Wu Song was a little surprised, "Princess, I'm afraid it's inappropriate for you to go there." ”

"Only I can go," said the princess, "and now that four of the six ministers have died, the other ministers must stay here and assist my father and the emperor in stabilizing the situation, and none of them can leave easily.

Only I am the most suitable, I have been in the border for several years before, and I have feelings for the soldiers there, and I also understand military affairs, and I can help when I get there. ”

Wu Song pondered for a moment, looking at the immature little girl in front of him, his eyes were full of admiration.

At the age of sixteen, when ordinary people are still full of fantasies, teenagers will only be brave and ruthless, and girls will only look forward to love all day long. And the seventh princess has already shouldered the heavy responsibility of saving the country.

"Princess, I'll go with you!" Li Tian said suddenly, his face was also full of admiration, full of admiration for this girl. At the same time, in this admiring feeling, there is also a layer of admiration.

Even Li Tian himself may not be able to perceive that he is willing to give his life for the sake of the girl in front of him.

It was under the influence of this feeling that Li Tiancai proposed to go to the border with the princess.

"Shaoxia, this is extremely dangerous, you have done too much for me and my father, you must take another adventure. The Seventh Princess said.

"Princess, the rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband, I am also a citizen of Tianyun County, in order to defend my motherland, I should do my part. Li Tian said loudly.

"Okay, since Shaoxia insists on this, then let's go to the border together. The Seventh Princess said.

"Princess, Brother Li, I'll go with you. Hua Xing said suddenly.

"Brother Hua, are you going too?" Li Tian said in surprise, "But, aren't you from the Earth Circle Empire?"

Hua Xing smiled, "Yes, I was born in the Earthly Empire, but Brother Li, don't forget, I am also a monk. The monks are home all over the world, and for the sake of justice and the way, there are no borders in their hearts.

I am a person from the Earth Empire, and at the same time I am also a person from the Heavenly Empire, I am from Dongzhou, and I am from the Xuanwu Realm!"

"Okay, Brother Hua, that's a good point!" Li Tian said with a smile, "Then we will go to the border with the princess together." ”

Hua Xing turned his head to look at Wu Song and said, "Brother Wu, will you go with us too?"

The princess and Li Tian also looked at Wu Song together, waiting for his opinion.

Wu Song lowered his head and pondered, and said after a long time, "Two brothers, princess, although I am a native of Lingchong County, but like Brother Hua, there are no borders in my heart, and I am very willing to go to the border with you."

But I still have one more important thing to do, this matter is not only related to the safety of Tianyun County and the country, but I am afraid that it involves the situation of the entire Dongzhou Continent. ”

Next, Wu Song told the other three people in detail about the spaceship of the Ancient Ten Thousand Clans.

"That's the thing, I came to Tianyun County to find this Falling Cloud Plain, and then find the burial place of the spaceship of the Ancient Ten Thousand Clans, and destroy this dangerous weapon.

Otherwise, if any of the forces on either side obtains this kind of weapon, it will be almost invincible. Wu Song said.

In this case, what Brother Wu did is obviously more important than the safety of a country. Li Tiandao.

Hua Xing also nodded, agreeing with Li Tian's opinion.

"Falling Cloud Plains?" muttered the Seventh Princess, "Why is this name so familiar?"

The Seventh Princess lowered her head and thought for a while, then suddenly raised her head and said, "I remember, this Falling Cloud Yuan seems to be near the border pass. Come with me, let's take a look at the map. ”

The three of them followed the Seven Princesses to a room in the Fun Garden, and the Seven Princesses took out a map from the cabinet and unfolded it on the table.

This map is the map of Tianyun County, and in the northwest is the border between Tianyun County and the Dihuan Empire, and it is also the border pass where the Seven Princesses and they are going.

The Seventh Princess pointed to a place south of the border pass and said, "Everyone, please see, this is the Falling Cloud Plain. ”

Everyone looked along the point of the seventh princess, and sure enough, they saw a place name, Falling Cloud Plain.

"It turns out that Falling Cloud is in this place. Wu Song said, he only knew that the location of the spaceship was in the Falling Cloud Plain, but he didn't know where the Falling Cloud Plain was in the Tianyun Monarchy.

"That's great," Hua Xing said happily, "then Brother Wu, we can go to the border together." ”

Li Tian thought the same and looked at Wu Song happily.

Wu Song said, "It seems that our three brothers are really destined, and God will not let us separate." Okay, let's go to the border together. ”

After nightfall, the Seven Princesses recruited seven people, all of whom were masters of the Ouchi Guard, and each of them was in the middle of the Yuan Seed Realm.

These seven people will go with them to the border pass.

It was almost time before the crowd set out.

From the capital of Tianyun County, to the border pass, there is a total distance of more than 300 miles. The group estimated that they could arrive before the sun set tomorrow.

Fortunately, from the capital to the border pass, there is an official road to walk, and there is a post station in the middle to rest.

The people hurried through the night, and when they arrived at a post station, they rested for a while, and then changed horses and continued on their journey.

The situation is urgent, and everyone has nothing to worry about.

By daybreak, the crowd had driven out more than 150 miles, and it was expected that they would arrive at their destination by the end of the day.

Towards noon, the crowd came to a valley.

The border pass is located in a mountainous area, and the mountains are continuous, because there are big mountains to rely on, so Tianyun County, a small county, can resist the attack of the Dihuan Empire for so many years.

At this time, everyone has entered the edge of the border area, and the further they go in, the more uneven the terrain will become.

The people had been on the road for so long, and they were all hungry at this time, so they stopped in the valley and ate some dry food.

Then the crowd hit the road again.

Passing through the valley, a short walk further on, there is a canyon. This canyon has a scientific name, called a ray of heaven. Because there is a section of the canyon that is extremely narrow, looking up at the bottom of the canyon, it feels like a line in the sky, hence the name.

Before the group entered the first-line sky, the sun was scorching, and the people were sweating constantly, but as soon as they entered the first-line sky, they immediately felt very cool.

After walking in for a while, I felt a cold wind blowing continuously, which made people have goosebumps.

Wu Song looked up at the top, only to see that the mountain walls on both sides were still more than ten meters apart when they were at the bottom of the canyon, and the higher they went, the closer they were to the middle, and when they reached the top, it seemed to be next to each other, and there was only a crack left in the sky.
