At the end of February, in the middle of Shibuya, the valley lord Qu Han stood in the courtyard and stared silently into the distance. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 Bai Chun, one of the four killers, knelt down on one knee beside Qu Hanyan, his expression was full of grief and indignation, and he reported in a voice that tried his best to suppress his feelings:

"We followed the code mark and searched along the way, and saw Shang Qin's body five miles south of Liufeng Tower......

Qu Hanyan's pupils shrank suddenly, his finger joints turned pale due to excessive force, and his voice said without a little warmth:

"It was Jiang Yanpei's people. ”

"I'm not sure yet, but I can't get rid of it. Judging from the scene, Shang Qin was obviously besieged by many people, and the other party's methods were cruel and ruthless. Bai Chun's eyes were red, and hatred welled up in his heart.

"How's Forget Autumn?"

When she saw such a scene, she immediately cried bitterly and fainted for a while. The second valley lord asked me to bring her back first, and I have ordered someone to take care of her. ”

Qu Hanyan nodded, and said:

"As soon as Shang Qin died, the defense line outside the valley was on the verge of collapse, and with the 'stream' and the ever-expanding news network of the Star Altar, even Shibuya's many years of Tao Hui were about to go down the drain. I'm going to make them pay a hundredfold for it. ”

"Do as the valley lord commands. Bai Chun leaned over and said.

"You inform the second valley master, you don't have to look ahead and backward, and all those who are determined to be related to Jiang Yanpei will be removed. ”

"Yes!"

Even if this is the case, even if Shibuya is revealed early, as long as there is a barrier from Princess Chanyuan, the battlefield here is not to worry.

"Liancheng, stay in Fenglou ......" Qu Hanyan read these words and fell into deep thought.

At the beginning of March, due to the desperate counterattack of the Shibuya side, the night country Sima Jiang Yanpei and his subordinates suffered heavy losses. However, with such frequent encounters, the veil of mystery covering Lian Shibuya was inevitably lifted, and Jiang Yanpei soon received news that Lian Shibuya was a force secretly hostile to the Night Kingdom court.

With this achievement, within three days, Emperor Lu promoted Jiang Yanpei to Ling Yin according to his words. Sitting on the position of 10,000 people under one person, and supported by the strength of many rivers and lakes, Lord Ling Yin can be said to be proud.

When it comes to the power of the court (separator), Emperor Lu is reluctant to directly lead the army to destroy Shibuya, so as to avoid turmoil in the court. Therefore, the only way to use Jiang Yanpei's energy in the rivers and lakes is to use first. Before figuring out the details of Shibuya and exterminating it, Jiang Yanpei planned to do a happy event first, and make a good deed to become a pair - this happy event was to promote the marriage of his righteous son Di Qiu and his righteous daughter Qirui, and consolidate the relationship between his cronies, so that the two could also serve him without distraction.

Although the two are called brother and sister, after all, there is no blood relationship, for Di Qiu, Qi Rui is very suitable for both appearance and skill, and is a good helper for his future court development.

As for Qi Rui, she has seen a lot of handsome men walking the rivers and lakes, although Di Qiu is not a dragon among people, but he is also an extraordinary mediocre person, and there is always a tacit understanding between the two, getting along harmoniously, and he can be called a good couple. The only loneliness was Qihong's absence, and not even a word came.

On the fifth day after the wedding, Di Qiu and Qi Rui concentrated their subordinates and focused on dealing with the goal of Lian Shibuya, but even Shibuya's power in the rivers and lakes was unfathomable, and the court had many infiltrations, and they didn't know where to start, and the two inevitably ran into many walls, which left time for the key scene of the four valley masters who were outside Lian Shibuya reversing the situation.

~~~

In early March, Tian Chili, the lord of Shibuya Nanatani, followed his memory through the rugged walls and infiltrated the Demon Palace, but because he was familiar with the terrain, he didn't attract anyone's attention along the way.

After groping his way into the courtyard where Elder Tanaka lived, Tian Qianli almost walked straight to the wing room of an elder surnamed Qiao. And the head-on, as in the impression, is a strong aroma of wine rushing to the face.

Elder Qiao, who was over fifty years old, was just as Tian Qianli thought, and he was drinking fast during the day, and after a while, the wine jug on the table was at the bottom. Elder Qiao picked up the wine jug and shook it, and couldn't help but complain in disappointment:

"When people are frustrated, they don't even have to drink. Bah. ”

"Elder, don't be angry, I have good wine here. Tian Qianli appeared in front of the door with the wine jar in his hand, and said with a familiar smile.

Hearing this, Elder Qiao turned sideways, squinted his eyes and looked at it for a moment, and said in a trance:

"Look at you kid is a little familiar, which one are you?"

"The elder is so forgetful, don't you remember that when we were children, we all climbed the tree with you to hunt peaches?" Tian Qianli walked over in three or two steps as he spoke, and lightly placed the wine jar on the table.

Elder Qiao smelled the aroma of wine, and immediately didn't care about anything else, carefully lifted the seal at the mouth of the altar, and said vaguely:

"Hehe, you children have a heart. ”

"I don't know what the elder is worried about, but he drinks more wine than before. Tian Qianli poured a bowl of wine for Elder Qiao and asked.

"Ahem, the palace master is now grown up and has his own mind, and we have nothing to worry about this old bone. Elder Qiao slowly drank the wine in the bowl, with an expression of aftertaste and satisfaction on his face.

"You can't say that, you are an elder, and you have to make up your mind about the affairs in the palace. ”

"If you want to talk about a big event, it is the marriage of the palace master. But the palace master first remembered the little girl who was in the dust Xuan, and then he never forgot the royal princess. If this continues, the Demon Palace will embark on the road of overturning. ”

"Where is it as serious as you say. ”

"We can't afford to mess with the people of the Yuan family. The old palace master entrusted the family business, and I can't watch it ruined. ”

"I respect the elder's heart, and I would like to give you an idea, how about it?"

"Tell me about it. ”

Tian Qianli immediately lowered his voice and said a few words to Elder Qiao. After hearing this, Elder Qiao's eyes widened suddenly, and he shook his head again and again:

"No, I can't do this kind of thing!"

"It's just to empty the palace master's power, so as to properly persuade it, and it won't hurt the palace master in the slightest. ”

"No, no, I can't do anything to be sorry for the old palace master. ”

"If the elder ignores the palace master's willful behavior, he is truly sorry for the old palace master. ”

"This ...... Even if I had the heart, the rest of the elders wouldn't have agreed. Elder Qiao had unconsciously backed down.

"Do you need everyone's approval to act on weekdays?" Tian Qianli smiled and said intentionally.

"Not really, if there is no objection, the matter is arranged. ”

"So as long as the elders can't come out to answer for the time being, isn't it?"

"You're going to do something about them?"

"You don't need to hurt anyone, just have this. Tian Qianli patted the wine jar next to him and said.

"Those old guys don't drink as much as I do. ”

"Did you know that just two herbs can defeat a large number of people? ”

"It's true, there was such a thing in the palace in the early years, and many people were drunk. I can't remember what herbs the kid used. ”

"It is used to make sunflowers and drunken peaches, and the powder is bounced into the wine, and the drinkers can get drunk no matter how large they are. ”

"How can you remember this incident so much at such an age?" Elder Qiao was taken aback, carefully looked at Tian Qianli for a moment, and suddenly said with half a doubt, "Could it be ......you?"

"yes. Long time no see, Elder Joe. Tian Qianli smiled meaningfully.

~~~

Two days later, Lonely Ling and Jiao Ying hurriedly walked into the garden and reported to Zhan Dusk:

"Childe, it seems that outsiders have broken into the palace. Elder Qiao didn't know how to be instigated, but he charmed all the elders, and one person controlled the hands of three people in the palace, and resisted each other to discuss future plans. ”

Jiao Ying didn't notice for a while, four of the sixteen demons defected, and they still ...... said that the son planned to ask Princess Chanyuan for marriage, so the situation was a little out of control. ”

"Who can break through the obstacles of the craggy walls and enter the Demon Palace without a sound...... "A look of worry flashed between Zhan Duxiao's eyebrows, and he said, "This time I'm afraid it's not just as chaotic as when I first took over the affairs of the palace, and there seems to be a lot of involvement behind it." ”

"Anyway, it's my own brother, please think of a proper way to calm the chaos. Lonely said.

Zhan Duxiao nodded, only to feel that there was a trace of hidden worry in her heart, but she was unpredictable, so she had to first hold back what she was thinking in her heart and solve the current situation. Then he went to the courtyard where the elders lived.

The eldest brother and the fourth brother were circling around and led everyone to the back mountain. There were only a few unconscious elders here. Jiao Ying said to Zhan Duxiao.

After checking the situation of the elders one by one, Zhan Duxiao relaxed a little and said:

"The breath is steady, not poisoned. It seems to be just drunk. ”

"Drunk?" Silent Ling and Jiao Ying couldn't help but look at each other.

"It turns out that Elder Qiao still remembers the events of that year, so he used this trick. Zhan Duxiao sighed, and then said, "Let the elders drink the licorice water, and the effect of the medicine will be solved." ”

When Lonely Ling and Jiao Ying heard this, they seemed to recall something, and soon went to look for licorice and did as they were told.

And Zhan Duxiao was in the same place, and said to himself again:

"However, this drug is very strong, and the dosage is particularly important. This time it didn't hurt anyone, which can be described as a fluke. ”

He only said that it was Elder Qiao who drew the gourd in the same way and implemented this plan, but he didn't know who really controlled the dosage of the medicinal powder.

When the news of the turmoil in the Demon Palace reached the country, it was the evening of the third day when Chan'er and Xue Feng returned to the capital. On the evening of this day, Helian Jialu specially set up a dinner party in a restaurant in the capital in order to introduce Qu Yuehuai and Chan'er to each other.

In the evening, at the beginning of the lanterns, Helian Jialu took Chan'er out of the palace together, and before the two of them left the palace gate, they saw a guard hurrying over.

"Why are you so flustered?" asked Helian Jialu when she saw the guard through the carriage window.

"Princess Qiyu, it's the Demon Palace that is in trouble. The guard replied.

When Chan'er heard this, she immediately leaned towards Helian Jialu, stretched out her hand to lift the curtain of the carriage a little more, and asked:

"What happened to the Demon Palace?"

"Back to the two princesses, it was someone who mixed into the Demon Palace to make trouble, and helped the elders in the palace to cause a rebellion. ”

"How is the situation of the Zhan Palace Master?"

"This rebellion seems to be not small, and it is an unprecedented crisis in the Demon Palace. However, with the skills of the Zhan Palace Lord, it will not be a big problem. ”

"Got it, you should report to your father first. Helian Jialu said.

"Yes. Then the guards bypassed the carriage and marched back to the palace.

In the carriage, Chan'er looked at Helian Jialu, and said without concealment:

"I haven't seen him for a year, I miss him very much, I am worried about him. ”

"I understand that if I were you, I would only want to see him okay at this moment. Helian Jialu nodded and said, "You don't have to accompany me to the banquet, I'll find a chance for you to meet my 'him' later." ”

After asking Helian Jialu's understanding, Chan'er said to Xue Feng next to the carriage:

"Big brother, can you accompany me on the overnight journey?"

"Okay, let's go tonight, change fast horses and take shortcuts along the way, and you can arrive at the Demon Palace in three days. Xue Feng replied without hesitation.

"Thank you, big brother. ”

After choosing a good horse for Chan'er and Xue Fengqi to go to the Demon Palace, Helian Jialu hurriedly beckoned the carriage to rush to the restaurant where the banquet was held. Obviously, the appointed hour has passed, but Qu Yuehuai has not been seen. Helian Jialu waited for a moment before he remembered to send someone to Qu Yuehuai's place to inquire about it, not wanting to go to the empty building and disappear.

The next morning, the German Emperor Helian Binh instructed the palace people to invite Helian Jialu to meet him. When Helian Jialu walked into the Kaiser's study, he saw another man standing aside, and this man was the master of the five grains of Shibuya, Gensen.

"Father. Helian Jialu saluted Helian Bin, then looked at Yuan Qian for a moment, and said with some uncertainty, "This is ...... Father's secret stake in the Night Kingdom?"

"It's the 'dark' who is in the void, you saw it many years ago. Helian Bin's head agreed.

"Yuan Qian has seen Princess Jialu. Yuan Qian then saluted Helian Jialu.

Helian Jialu nodded to Yuan Qian, looked at Helian Bin and asked:

"Is my father concerned about the affairs of the Night Kingdom?"

"Yuan Qian has not come back for several years, and it is rare to see each other, so my father naturally has a lot of things to ask. But today, it's mostly for your business. Helian Bin said.

"Me?" Helian Jialu was puzzled, and looked back and forth between the two.

"At the beginning of that year, he entered the Night Country, and by chance, Yuan Qian and the Lord of Shibuya Shibuya met each other, and he had the grace to save him, and the two became brothers. Helian bin explained.

"Yuan Qian's identity in the Night Country is the Lord of the Five Grains of Shibuya. Yuan Qian then said.

"If you talk about Shibuya, it has something to do with Chan'er, but how can it involve me?"

"It's really related to Princess Chanyuan. But Princess Jialu can't get out of it. Yuan Qian paused, and then said, "The fourth brother's name is Qu Yuehuai, and the seal on each of his paintings is the word 'Yuehuai'. ”

"You mean, Yuehuai...... Is it the Lord of the Four Valleys of Shibuya?" Helian Jialu was surprised to learn of Qu Yuehuai's identity, and couldn't help but be surprised.

"If Yuan Qian's guess is right, the princess is missing the figure of the fourth brother at this moment. ”

"Yes. Do you know where the other people are?"

"The fourth brother should be on his way to the Demon Palace. I thought I could meet him here, but he was one step ahead. It seems that Princess Chanyuan has also set off. ”

When Helian Jialu heard what Yuan Qian said, his mind turned a few times, and he immediately grasped the cause of the matter, so he said:

"The matter of the Demon Palace has something to do with Shibuya. You deliberately led Chan'er to the Demon Palace, Chan'er left with his front foot, and he followed. ”

"The princess is right. ”

"That Yuehuai...... No, Qu Yuehuai's time in Dadu ...... Are they all disguised?" Helian Jialu's heart tightened, and she was very sad.

Yuan Qian came here to inform the emperor and the princess of the true information in time, but not to say that the fourth brother had deceived the princess. With Yuan Qian's understanding of the fourth brother, he is not a person who regards emotions as child's play. ”

"But what is Shibuya's purpose, and will Chan'er's trip be dangerous?"

"Princess Chanyuan will not be in danger, the eldest brother wants to ask the princess to go to Shibuya. ”

"Father?" Helian Jialu's eyes revealed an inquiry.

"Emperor Xuan of the Lonely Kingdom had intended to choose the lord of Shibuya Valley as Chan'er's husband, this matter is not yet clear, if it is just to meet each other, Kong Lin and Feng Yuyang are afraid that they will not be able to come forward to stop it. ”

"Then you don't need to make a move from the Tuoba family, I'll just go with Yuan Qian. ”

"This ......"

"Father, if I don't ask him face to face, I won't be reconciled. I must be careful not to cause trouble. ”

"Okay. Helian Bin couldn't resist Helian Jialu, so he had to say to Yuan Qian, "In this line, you have to pay attention to the safety of the two princesses, and you can't make mistakes in protecting the princesses." ”

Yuan Qian obeyed. ”

At Helian Jialu's insistence, the two of them immediately headed south that day and hurried to the Demon Palace.
