Hearing Shen Mengting say so many words, Zhao Yu couldn't help but fall into self-reverie.

The current state of the Kingdom of Saran is well known, and it seems that everyone knows the challenges it is about to face. However, Zhao Yu still firmly believes that as long as he has the heart to resist, he will definitely be able to escape the doom.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yu's face was no longer that tightened. Instead, he took a deep breath of relief.

"That's the way it is, so ......" Shen Mengting was also breathing in a low voice, "No one wants to see Salan's current predicament." So now I just hope that things can be resolved, and not to hold anyone responsible!"

Since Shen Mengting has said this, the rest of the people will no longer explore the topic of the king. It's just that for Qian Hao and Shen Jun, they are still full of doubts about the little king. Because as Shen Mengting said, if the little king is really a puppet, the real power in the city is the regent led by compromise. So, isn't their trip undoubtedly self-defeating?

Qian Hao coughed slightly, he was still thinking about whether to tell Shen Mengting about the doubts in his heart.

But at this moment, a broad road suddenly broke into his sight. As they continued to walk through the woods, they soon came to a road that led to the gate of Kiyose Castle.

Is that......

Qian Hao narrowed his eyes slightly, looking directly at the spacious cement road.

"Look! Sister Mengting!" Jiang Jingwen pointed to the distance, and it seemed that she had also seen the road.

Shen Mengting followed the instructions of others and looked not far ahead. At first, there was a look of doubt on her face, but after a while, the corners of her mouth slowly hooked, "Wow! It's finally here!

After a few 'driving' strokes, with the sound of hurried horses' hooves, Shen Mengting had already surpassed the team by a lot.

"Hey! Wait!"

Seeing this, the rest of the people also sped up their horses.

The group began to sprint towards the continent. Shuttling between the trees, it didn't take much effort for them to run straight to the main road.

The horse's legs jolted a few times on the concrete floor, and Shen Mengting quickly stopped the horse. Then, she followed the general direction to the location of Kiyose Castle.

"It seems, we're really about to reach our destination this time!" Shen Mengting's face was full of smiles.

The appearance of a solid road means that Kiyose Castle is really not far away.

"Does this road lead straight to Kiyose Castle?" asked Shen Jun curiously.

Shen Mengting nodded quickly. Shen Mengting was a little surprised by Shen Jun's knowingly question, "That's right!

"In other words, as long as we follow this road, we can reach Qingse City?" Qian Hao's gaze as he looked into the depths of the road became sharper and sharper.

"Of course!" Shen Mengting instinctively lifted the reins of the horse in her hand, "Anyway, when I was walking in the woods before, I was looking for this path!

"So we're ...... now Do you want to continue along this path?"

When Shen Mengting heard what Qian Hao said, she instantly showed a surprised face, "Ah, what, is there a second plan?"

"I mean, do you have to go this way?"

"In front of the gates of Kiyose Castle, there are such paved cement roads! After all, it is our national capital!"

Shen Mengting's meaning even Zhao Yu understood. As the most important city in the Kingdom of Saran, the traffic at its gate is naturally well-connected.

"Then let's hurry up! I guess we can reach Kiyose City today!"

Jiang Jingwen's words were taken into Zhao Yu's ears. He instantly felt like a warm current hit the center. After many days of traveling, there is only one purpose, that is, to reach Kiyose Castle. Now, there is still a little bit of time, and he can officially step into the Qingse City that he once longed for.

"Jingwen is right! It doesn't take much time to ......" Shen Mengting rolled her eyes and thought for a while, "In just over an hour, we can reach the city!"

"That's amazing...... Great!" Qian Hao seemed to sigh something. After that, he also looked at Shen Jun next to him.

Shen Jun was also currently thinking about what he should do first after entering the city. Naturally, it is not necessary to talk about housing, at least you must find a hotel where you can eat and drink well.

"Then let's hit the road!" her head slammed forward, and Shen Mengting reinstated the horses.

A group of five horses also began to rush again.

This road was found by Shen Mengting on the map as early as possible, and it led straight to the west gate of Qingse City. Growing up, she used to travel back and forth to the west gate of Kiyose Castle because it was closer to her home.

For some reason, she remembered something from the past.

For example, when she was a child, when she went out of the city with her mother, she chose to go out from the west gate of the city. Then, this road is naturally a place to be tread. After that, she opened up a little wider, and when she went to the barracks outside the city, she also walked the same way. So much so that whenever she wants to go in and out of the city, this road is the way to go.

Shen Mengting couldn't help but look left and right. remembers that the last time she stepped on this road was when she went out of the city to find Uncle Yang Jiening.

Zhao Yu rode on this road, looking into the distance from time to time. The direction he was looking at was, of course, the location of the city at the end of the road. However, he had not seen a place where there were buildings. How he was looking forward to getting into the city as soon as possible, and that would be the same way he had accomplished his goal since leaving Vortex Town.

In the team, not only Shen Mengting and Zhao Yu wanted to hurry up, but the rest of the people were also impatient. Only by stepping into Kiyose City can they be regarded as getting a ticket to complete the task, and they all know this.

After running for a while, Qian Hao, who couldn't calm down, began to talk about it again while looking around.

"By the way, what should we do first when we arrive at Kiyose Castle?"

The sound of horses' hooves that day was a little eye-catching, but the words could still be heard by Shen Mengting.

So, Shen Mengting glanced at Qian Hao's location, "After entering Qingse City, go to my house first and then talk about it!"

"Huh, go to your house first?" Shen Jun looked a little surprised.

"Hmm, what's wrong, do you think it's weird?" Shen Mengting's brows were slowly furrowed, "After entering the city, if you don't go to my house to prepare first, where else can you go?"

"Oh!" Shen Jun shut up.

I thought that the woman would find them a decent place to live first, but I didn't expect her to invite her companions to live at home so generously. Shen Jun's heart still swelled with a sense of joy, he had long wanted to go to Shen Mengting's mansion to have a look. After all, he was somewhat curious about the residence of the powerful family.

"Sister Mengting, after we get to your house, should we rest for a while, or will we just go to the palace?"

Jiang Jingwen's question made Shen Mengting's heart 'chuckle'. To be honest, she still hadn't thought about what she should do when she arrived at Kiyose Castle.

Under normal circumstances, the sooner you see the king, the better. In the time they have been running around, time must have been delayed for a long time. So Shen Mengting's heart was very anxious.

But the question is, what are the various forces in Kiyose City doing now?

Are those compromisers planning to surrender to Qingse City now? Another important point is what is the current situation in Qingse City? Whether the people in the city already know about Uncle Yang Jiening.

It has been more than a month since Yang Jiening stole documents last time. During this time, the news will definitely reach Kiyose Castle. Similarly, the Sauron Empire's possible means of mobilizing troops will definitely spread in Qingse City.

In other words, the current situation in Qingse City may be chaotic! Shen Mengting guessed like this.

But strange places followed, and Shen Mengting didn't feel the feeling of chaos in the world along the way. What's going on here?

Could it be that the Sauron Empire has blocked the news and there is no follow-up?

Shen Mengting thought about it, it was impossible. After all, when she stepped into Sauron's territory, she heard the townsfolk talking about 'Yang Jiening stealing documents'. As the saying goes, paper can't hold the fire, presumably that information has already been transmitted to Kiyose City.

can make Shen Mengting puzzled. It stands to reason that the rulers of the Sauron Empire, after knowing that their plan was about to be revealed, should have jumped over the wall and acted early! But more than a month has passed, and their side is silent. What's going on here?

Could it be that the Sauron Empire, seeing that its actions were exposed, gave up its plans to invade Saran?

Shen Mengting thought that it shouldn't be this kind of ending. Because she knew the Sauron Empire very well, the people of that country would never give up for the sake of achieving their goals. So it is unlikely that they will abandon the act of invading other countries.

So...... In what direction will things develop? Shen Mengting fell into confusion for a while. But just a few seconds later, with the sound of horses' hooves echoing in her ears, she shook her head sharply.

How will it develop, let's wait until we arrive in Qingse City! Shen Mengting immediately decided.

So, she sped up her horse again and headed straight for Kiyose Castle at the end of the road.

The group of them ran straight down the road, and they didn't meet many idlers in the gaps. At this time, Zhao Yu was a little strange. It stands to reason that in a prosperous place like the national capital, there should be many civilians walking in and out!

There are also Qian Hao and Shen Jun, but they are different from Zhao Yu's dullness, and they will definitely release it whenever they have doubts in their hearts. Qian Hao waved the reins and rushed directly to Shen Mengting's side.

"Hey, why don't you think there are many passers-by on this road?"

"Of course there are few passers-by here. Because many of the city's residents tend to choose to go to the east gate, where the road is wider and has been renovated and repaired in recent years. ”

"Oh!

"Don't worry, will I still lead the wrong way? Qingse City is where I grew up since I was a child!" Shen Mengting's mouth was full of confidence.

Qian Hao knew that he didn't need to ask anything, so he quietly continued to ride his horse.

The group ran for a while, and a so-called three-way crossing soon appeared in front of them.

Shen Mengting didn't explain too much, and directly turned her head to the left, "Take the left road." ”

"Where does the right side lead?" asked Qian Hao, but he still honestly pulled the horse's head towards the left road.

"You don't have to worry about this!" Shen Mengting waved her hand casually.

She remembered that the road on the left didn't seem to lead, and it was a dead end.

"Really?"

"Okay, brothers and sisters, let's hold on for a while! The destination is about to arrive!" Shen Mengting's order now is so exciting.

But just as the crowd was about to run down the road to the left of the fork, a sound from the right made them turn their heads.

"Don't! Please!"

It was a very sad female voice, and there seemed to be an equally noisy faint wail around her.

"Hmm, what's wrong?" Qian Hao was the first to hear it, and he couldn't help but turn his head to the right side of the road at the fork.

Right on the side of the road, there seemed to be a group of soldiers in armor, not many of them, but there were twenty or thirty of them. Judging from the voice just now, it was obvious that it could not have been made by these stout soldiers.

So......

Because his attention was elsewhere, Qian Hao's speed of driving slowed down.

Don't that voice affected not only Qian Hao, Shen Jun and Jiang Jingwen also turned their heads and lowered their horse speed. And Shen Mengting and Zhao Yu continued to run forward without knowing it.

"What's wrong? there?" Shen Jun's gaze stared straight at the group of soldiers on the road on the right.

"Don't!"

There was another resounding wail, forcing Shen Jun to stop the horse directly.

"This ...... What the hell is going on?" With a slight jaw movement, Shen Jun's mouth also opened slightly.

Qian Hao and Jiang Jingwen also stopped one after another when they saw this.

Shen Mengting, who was still running forward desperately, had just noticed the strangeness of her teammates. She hurried to the horses to stop. But the sudden forced stop almost hit Zhao Yu in the rear.

"Ahh

The two horses passed by, and the people on the horses almost collided with each other.

"Hey, you kid be careful for me!" Shen Mengting turned her gaze to the three people who stopped.

In fact, half of Shen Mengting's current bad mood is because of the sudden stop of those three people. Originally, they were short of time, so they should hurry up and rush to Kiyose City. But why did the three of them stop?

With a question, Shen Mengting also rode her horse towards them. It didn't take long for her to basically know what was going on. It turned out that on the road to the right of the fork, there was a group of soldiers in armor around. And in the circle formed by the group of soldiers, there was no mournful cry of pleading.

"What's wrong?" Shen Mengting ran towards her companions who had stopped.

Zhao Yu finally turned the horse around, and his heart was able to settle down. Not only did he almost collide with Shen Mengting just now, but he also inexplicably encountered her accusation, not to mention how aggrieved Zhao Yu was in his heart. He pouted, slowly approaching where the team had stopped.

looked at Qian Hao and the three of them, and there was no sign that they were in a hurry. On the contrary, they were also leisurely looking at the road to the right of the fork, and Shen Mengting suddenly became angry. While it did seem like something was going on over there, they shouldn't be bothering with irrelevant things right now.

"Hey, I said you ......."

Just as Shen Mengting continued to get closer and brightened her voice, another sky-breaking roar suddenly struck in parallel.

"Don't! You can't do that!"

The roar made Shen Mengting and them, including Qian Hao and the others, all convulse suddenly. How miserable this voice is, it seems to be full of apocalyptic grievances.

"What the hell is going on?" Shen Mengting had already walked to the edge of the team.

When the rest of the people saw her, they also nodded slightly.

But it was their action that caused Shen Mengting's anger to rise again, "What is this, what is it! I came here to urge you to leave." You're still coming and nodding to me?'

"Hey, I said what are you all doing here?" In order not to attract the attention of the soldiers over there, Shen Mengting deliberately lowered her voice.

Qian Hao: They seemed to be a little surprised. After glancing at Shen Mengting a few times in surprise, they all pointed at the soldiers there.

Shen Mengting sighed when she saw this, "I know there's something going on!, but that's not our business, now we have to hurry up and go to Qingse City!" Because she was so excited, the horse she was riding unconsciously swayed a few steps to the side.

There were still many surprised faces, presented on the bodies of several companions. Shen Mengting was a little helpless when she saw this.

"Are you begging us? Haha, but do you think this kind of plea will move us?" came a voice, this time from one of the soldiers. There is no same sadness as before, this voice is so full of the feeling of oppression.

"What are they doing?" Shen Jun's tone actually showed a hint of indignation.

"Whatever they're doing, it shouldn't have anything to do with us!" Shen Mengting drove the horse hard, and the Nasa she was riding pierced into the center of her teammates.

"Huh?" Shen Jun leaned back, he looked even more surprised.

"What's wrong? Don't you understand me? It's none of our business over there! We need to hurry up!"

"Huh? This ......"

"Did you hear that?"

was urged by Shen Mengting one after another, but Shen Jun didn't take any action, and he also looked at Qian Hao opposite blankly.

Qian Hao now also doesn't know how to be good. But he still approached Shen Mengting, and Shi Yi shook his head slightly, "Hey, why are you talking like that, haven't you seen what happened there?"

"I see! I have eyes, do I need you to remind me? But do you know what's our priority now? We don't have time to deal with the trivial affairs of the parents. ”

"This shouldn't be a simple matter of a short matter in a parent!" Shen Jun stretched out his arm and pointed to the source of the incident, "Look at that voice, how miserable it is!"

"I know that, too, but ......"

Just when Shen Mengting was about to respond fiercely, something happened there.

"No! Absolutely not! I will not let you people succeed even if I fight for my life!" said an old woman, who rushed out of the circle formed by the soldiers.

The old woman looked very haggard, and two lines of tears rolled down her wrinkled face.
