"Lord, everything is packed. In the inn, Shui Xuan said to Yelan.

"What about those from the Nine Dust Envoys?" Yelan asked.

"Back to the Lord, it's all outside, it's all ready. Shui Xuan said.

"Okay, you don't have to follow. Yelan said, "so as not to make others suspicious." ”

"Yes. ”

Yelan changed into the envoy he wore when he came, and walked outside the inn, where Lieyu's carriage and horse had just arrived.

Lie Yu got down from the carriage first, and then Lie Beiyao also got down from the carriage.

Yelan was slightly stunned, the two looked at each other, and there were complicated feelings in each other's eyes, but because many people were there, the two just understood and nodded slightly to each other.

"Take care. Lie Yu came over and patted Yelan on the shoulder, Yelan gave him an envoy salute, and then they looked at each other, Yelan turned and got on the horse, led the mission away, and never looked back.

"Have a safe journey. Lie Beiyao looked at Yelan's departing figure and muttered silently in his heart.

......

At the same moment, the Nine Dust Palace.

Fan Bozhong walked quickly from the Taiji Gate to the Taiji Hall, and the guards bowed their heads and saluted. When I arrived at the Taiji Palace, I saw that Emperor Zhaoning was playing against himself on the high seat, and he seemed to have been waiting for a long time.

"See Your Majesty. Fan Bozhong knelt down on one knee and saluted.

Emperor Zhaoning glanced up at him, the corners of his mouth seemed to be smiling, "Flat." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Fan Bozhong got up and said hurriedly, "Back to Your Majesty, I just got the news: King Guang has set off from the capital of Beixuan Kingdom, and it will take about three days, and at most five days will arrive. ”

"Hmm. Emperor Zhaoning snorted from his nose.

"In addition..."Fan Bozhong took a few steps forward and lowered his voice, "Your Majesty, the spies we have planted in the mission have successfully detected the news of the defense of the capital of Beixuan and the deployment of troops in various places in Beixuan, and have drawn a detailed map. ”

After speaking, Fan Bozhong handed the drawings to Feng Yi, who then forwarded them to Emperor Zhaoning.

Emperor Zhaoning took the drawing, and a strange smile appeared on his face, "Wasn't it discovered by Beixuan?"

"Back to Your Majesty, Your Majesty rest assured that the spies took advantage of the civil strife in Beixuan to enter the country. At that time, the Red Banner Crusaders and the Black Dragon Army were fighting on their own, and the security measures in the city were weakened a lot, so they would not leave a trace. Fan Bozhong replied.

"The Iron Army, I can rest assured. Emperor Zhaoning smiled slightly, slowly stood up, with a hint of kingly light in his eyes, as if there was a grand prosperous hegemony buried deep in his heart, and it could finally be achieved at this time......

"That's right. Your Majesty, King Lie Wuxue of De'an has some moves in private, and the spies have found that Lie Wuxue is secretly purchasing arms to contact the army, I'm afraid... I don't feel comfortable in the room..."

"Hehe, isn't this just an opportunity?" A sneer tugged at the corner of Emperor Zhaoning's mouth, he looked at Fan Bozhong with a strange gaze, and said coldly, "You know what to do." ”

"I understand. Fan Bozhong smiled and nodded, "Your Majesty, rest assured, the minister will do it well." ”

"By the way, send a message to the border guards and ask them to reorganize the army, it's time to make a move. Emperor Zhaoning said coldly, with excitement and joy that he couldn't hide in his heart.

The goal of dominating Kyushu for many years... It's almost there...

"Yes, the minister will arrange it!" Fan Bozhong was also a little excited. He hurriedly saluted and hurried down to the palace gate.

......

Because Emperor Beixuan decreed, the Jiuchen Mission went all the way unimpeded, and only went to the border for a major inspection, and other than that, there was no review of it in various places.

It only took two days for Yelan and his entourage to arrive at the junction of Jiuchen and Beixuan - Jingcui Mountain.

Jingcui Mountain is steep, it is the junction of Jiuchen and Beixuan, the two mountains are divided from the middle, half belongs to Beixuan, half belongs to Jiuchen, after Jingcui Mountain, it is considered to arrive in the territory of Jiuchen.

"Be careful, everybody, be vigilant. The general of the guard, who led the team, commanded the people. - Because Jingcui Mountain is the junction, the two countries are very relaxed in their control, and there are often bandits here, so the people coming and going are cautious.

"Your Highness, there are still three kilometers to go out of the mountain. The general of the guard asked Yelan for instructions, "Do you want the team to stop and rest first?"

Yelan turned his head and saw that everyone was hammering their legs and rubbing their shoulders in a hurry, and it was not appropriate for him to refuse at this time, so he pushed the boat down the river and nodded, "Okay, then let everyone rest for a while." ”

"Your Highness. The Guard General was obviously excited, and he turned to the crowd, "Rest in place!"

When everyone heard this, their faces were overjoyed, and they all found a cool place to sit on the ground and rest. Yelan grabbed his sword and sat with the guard general, looking around vigilantly from time to time.

Suddenly, a large boulder rolled down the mountain, Yelan subconsciously took a step back to dodge, but those envoys who were drinking water and resting did not react, and were directly taken away by the boulder and rolled down the mountain, letting out a whole scream.

"Alert, alert!" the guard general snapped to the side and whispered.

"It's definitely not a natural landslide, it's something that someone did on purpose. Yelan said in a deep voice. But before he finished speaking, the boulders rolling down the mountain increased, and there was a steady stream, most of those envoys were civil ministers, who did not know martial arts, so they could only hide in Tibet, but they were either stoned to death, or they trampled on each other and fell down the mountain together.

"Who's coming!" Yelan shouted.

When the people on the mountain heard the sound, they stopped throwing stones, and saw a group of black-clothed people jumping down from the mountain and cutting down when they met people. Yelan and the Guard General join the battle, trying to protect the remnants of the envoys.

"Let's go first!" Yelan shouted at them.

"Yes, yes, Your Highness. The envoys were frightened, and they fled the scene with only promises.

I thought that those unknown men in black would chase after them to kill people and kill them, so as not to leak their actions, but who knew that those men in black did not chase after them, but formed an encirclement around Yelan and the guard general, and tightly surrounded the two of them.

Seemingly... Their goal is themselves. Yelan said secretly in her heart.

"Who are you?!!, so bold!" the guard general asked the man with a sullen face.

"Heh, we are here to take revenge on you!" one of them waved his long sword and pointed straight at Yelan, "We only need his life, and you can leave." ”

Ye Lan looked at the people who came silently, and found that those black-clothed people all had a token hanging from their waists - others didn't know, but Ye Lan knew that it was the token of the Xuan Palace.

Yes. Nan Xuanji ......

"Just me?" Ye Lan smiled disdainfully, "You are from the Xuan Palace." ”

The man in black was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and suddenly pulled the corners of his mouth, revealing a sneer.

"Not bad. ”

"Then why did you kill me?" Ye Lan smiled, "Revenge for Ye Shu?"

"How can there be so much nonsense!" The man in black suddenly changed his complexion, then sank his face, stared at Yelan coldly and strangely, and suddenly said coldly, "Kill me." ”

The black-clothed people behind him were ordered, and they all drew their knives together, and slashed at the two with fierce eyes.

"Your Highness, you go first!" the guard general hurriedly said.

Knowing that he was their target, tying up with the guard general would hurt him, Yelan silently made a gap and quickly ran forward.

"Give me chase!" the leader ordered urgently.

They instantly left the guard general alone, and chased after Yelan with light skills. Yelan's martial arts and light skills are all considered to be superior, but some time ago, he had a cold attack, and he was a little powerless at this time, and his pace gradually slowed down, and he was caught up by the black-clothed man who came from behind, and was surrounded by groups.

Yelan held her sword, held her breath, took a light breath, and then raised her head and looked directly at the person without fear.

"Do it!" the leader commanded again.

"Wait!" a familiar voice came from behind the leader. Yelan was taken aback, but this voice was very familiar, could it be......

It's him!" Yelan's pupils shrank, and for the first time he felt that things were too complicated for him to imagine.
