The group listened to her narration calmly, and there was naturally a trace of curiosity and doubt in their eyes.

Tianfang frowned, and his gaze fell on her again.

There was a map of the territory of the country in the cabin, and the small town of Jiangjin was only a few dozen miles away from the place where we found the six princesses.

Concubine Jing carefully selected the shadow guard, but she doesn't know the ins and outs, since she knows that the number of shadow guards lost is only a small half, how can she be the only one left in this area of dozens of miles?

I'm afraid it's not just me, but others immediately noticed the strangeness of this matter.

The atmosphere suddenly became solemn.

I looked up at her from the fire, what had happened in this distance?

Everyone stared at the six princesses, and even Chen Yuqing, who had always been joking and unruly, restrained her expression.

I saw her take a deep breath, and her eyes revealed a little gloomy: "After this purge, the shadow guard passed through the small town of Jiangjin, and after a short rest, the captain of the shadow guard proposed to take the waterway for the next part of the road. ”

From Jiangjin to Hongjiang, in addition to the flat pipeline built along the river, the other road needs to climb over the continuous Hengshan Ridge, the latter is relatively remote, and it is easier to avoid the pursuit in the palace, and the complex terrain is just used as a cover, although the time is more expensive than the pipeline, and the safety is obviously more than a little higher.

No matter how you think about it, there is no reason to agree to go by water.

I looked at the sixth princess in confusion, completely understanding how she could be instigated by the shadow guard to choose such an inappropriate path.

As if seeing everyone's doubts, she was silent for a moment and said: "Originally, I absolutely disagreed with this plan, but when it comes to the remuneration of the shadow guard, is it ...... The ...... left by my mother in the past Something. ”

Everyone pressed down the doubts that rose in their hearts and listened to the sixth princess narrate the whole process.

As soon as Jiangjin passed, the captain of the shadow guard proposed to take the waterway, which passed through a dangerous situation. Hongdong Cliff.

Hongdong Cliff is dozens of miles away from Jiangjin, and it is the most dangerous water area of a tributary of the Hongjiang River in the land of lakes, even more than the Shifo Town we passed through before.

The biggest feature of Hongdong Cliff is that there are many strange rocks, thousands of cliffs, and the area of the main peak of Hongdong Cliff is a no-man's land.

In the past, when the shipping waterways were expanded, the Land of the Lakes invited warlocks to give advice, because from ancient times to the present, ships have almost never returned.

This danger in the middle affects the passage of the entire waterway.

The government stepped in and the final plan was to sacrifice an area near a tributary of the Hongjiang River. The artificial excavation of the waterway, which cost a huge amount of money and time, was opened during the reign of the previous lord of the country of lakes. is equivalent to the grandparents of the six princesses.

In this way, passing ships do not need to cross the cliff of Guò Hongdong to capture the rock, but only need to spend more time detouring the artificial river.

With this project, shipping and commerce will not be affected, but the Hongdong Cliff and Cangyan will be even more desolate.

Since the area of Cangyan is so dangerous and barren. Or rather, it's a no-man's land at all, and the mystery in my heart is even greater than before.

The mother of the sixth princess, Concubine Jing, the favorite concubine of the inner family who does not leave the palace gate, has been favored by the emperor of the Lake Country for more than ten years, how could she leave a secret treasure in such a no-man's land.

My eyes lingered on the six princesses, and I couldn't hold back the doubts in my heart. At this moment, her figure fell in my eyes, and she was no longer the beautiful princess who had simply escaped from marriage that she had rescued earlier, and the firelight was projected on her body. I always felt that this curling figure was a little cloudy and foggy, and I didn't know what she would say next to surprise everyone.

Half curious and half guessing, the sixth princess squatted by the fire, fiddling with a small branch in her hand, and was quiet for a while. She suddenly said to Tianfang: "Brother Tianfang, you and I have known each other since childhood. Do you know a little bit about our royal family? ”

My eyes turned back to Tianfang's body, recalling the situation when I met him in Dingbei Palace, a mystery was unsolved, and new questions emerged, so it seems that how Tianfang could be a person with a simple identity, and he can know the princess of the country of the lake since he was a child, what is his status.

It's a bit of a headache, if you don't want to think so much, just when this group of people is a group of good friends who wander the world, how easy and simple it should be, but now it seems that not only is this not the case, but each of them is burdened with a lot of secrets.

Whether it is Yun Chu, who is always nervous about me by my side, Chen Yuqing, the master of Xunyu Pavilion who came out of thin air, and Qin Sang, who is not around but has been together for a while, plus Lan Tianfang, the six princesses, who are they.

There is no moment more intense than now, since crossing into this otherworldly continent, I deeply feel for the first time that I can't go back, and I will have countless entanglements with this world, these people will have countless entanglements, whether it is good karma or bad fate, this is my life that I can't escape.

From the sudden encounter with time and space on the night of Xuebaoding to today, my life has been completely rewritten, whether I like it or not.

Blue sky, I thought he was a teenager who grew up in a small fishing village by the sea, but I was too naïve!

Tianfang's answer interrupted my thoughts: "Sixth Princess, if I am not mistaken, you mean that the secret vault of Hongdong Cliff is a relic of the previous dynasty. ”

"Yes," her eyes were a little obscured in the firelight, "it was left by the previous dynasty. ”

"The country of the lake has always been in power before the Xiao family, my mother's ancestor was an important minister of the previous dynasty, the official to the prime minister, one person under ten thousand people, the previous dynasty was in turmoil, the power fell into the hands of the Wang family, my mother's ancestor was surrendered and continued to be retained, this batch of treasures was originally accumulated by the previous dynasty."

"In fact, after the Wang family took power, they have been tracking the location of these treasures for two hundred years, and my mother's concubine family has always been suspected of having a connection with this batch of secrets, and only in the past two hundred years can there be women in the family who have been selected into the palace as concubines, even if it is my father, he has never given up the idea of seizing the treasure."

"What do you mean," I asked in dismay, "Could it be that you've already been to the Rainbow Cave Cliff?" “

That's right! It must be like that, otherwise how to explain that none of her shadow guards are there, how to explain that she was so wolf lying in the rocks in the middle of the river when we found her, maybe we will arrive later, this waterway connected to the Hongjiang River in the sea, if the tide is high, I am afraid that she will not be able to survive tonight.

said that she was declining and was going to be sent to kiss, but in fact, her luck was really good!

"There are mechanisms on the periphery of the vault of the Rainbow Cave Cliff, and they are poisonous mechanisms, the number of treasures is huge, there are only a dozen or so shadow guards, and I told them that they are only some of them, and when these people exit, they touch the mechanism and die in the cave."

"And how did you get out?" I asked.

"I didn't go in at all, they left me in a small boat at the bottom of the cliff, first two people stayed with me, and then those who went didn't come for a long time, and the remaining two people were worried that the spoils would be unevenly distributed or that Hongdong Cliff had another way out, so they followed them under the pretext of looking for them."

The sixth princess stood up, walked slowly to the table on the side, and swiped her ten fingers across the territory of the land of the lake, "The boat is tied to the stone under the cliff, and the climate in the area of Cangyan is changeable, and soon after they went, the wind and rain were violent, and the rope tied to the stone pillar of the boat broke, and I was swept into the turbulence, and when I woke up, it was already the situation when you saw me. ”

"You haven't seen the Shadow Guards die, so how can you be so sure they're all ......," I swallowed.

"Brother Tianfang, you first escorted me out of the country, but I don't want to, I have an idea, I don't know if you are willing?"

The sixth princess approached Lan Tianfang's side, looked at him with blazing eyes and said: "This batch of secrets belongs to the previous dynasty, the number is huge, the Xiao family's lineage has been cut off, the reason why my mother's concubine family never revealed the exact clues to the Wang family two hundred years ago is that they want that uncertain reliance." “

"You want me to help you get these vaults?" The corners of Tianfang's mouth hooked slightly, and he looked at her thoughtfully.

"Not bad!" The sixth princess took over, "I have thought about it repeatedly along the way, this time I escaped marriage, even if I can escape the pursuit of the royal family, I will not be able to return to my home for the rest of my life, I can only go into exile in neighboring countries, and I have to hide, in troubled times, I have nothing to rely on." ”

"It's better to ......" The sixth princess looked at Tianfang with warm eyes, "You and I have known each other since childhood, and your mother and my mother are close friends, if even you can't win the trust of me, I have nothing to trust in this world." ”

"This batch of secrets is enough to pour the kingdom over, I can give it to you, but you have to help me ......," she mustered up her courage and made up her mind, "to replace my father!! “

This, what's the situation?!

This is to ...... The rhythm of treason? Wrong! It's the rhythm of seizing power!

"Sixth Princess, you... You're so daring. I couldn't help but scream, at this moment she was no longer as weak as before in my eyes, I didn't see her life hanging by a thread a few hours ago, and at this moment she had already strategized to negotiate conditions with Lan Tianfang.

It's still about the big thing that overthrows a country!

"What's not to do?" She stared back at me, her eyes were arrogant at the moment, "There were women in power in this world, hundreds of years ago, the Sealand women's country already existed, and I will not be the first in this world." ”

"If it happens." She turned her gaze to look at Tianfang, restrained her previous ease with me, and there was a little more uncertainty and compromise in her tone, "Brother Tianfang, what do you say?" ”

The latter was silent, and the sixth princess seemed to be afraid that he would regret it, and added: "Are you doubting that what I said about the secret of the Rainbow Cave Cliff is fake?" ”

Lan Tianfang shook his head, his eyes were subtle: "You are too careful, I don't doubt you, it's just such a big thing, I can't make a decision for a while, you have to give me some time to think about it." ”

"Besides, if we really want to go to an expedition realm, we also need to be fully prepared."

I don't know if the sixth princess has noticed, I clearly understand, he said that it is us, we have to make all preparations!

He didn't leave out our group of buddies.

Is this the rhythm of the adventure? I turned my head to look at Yun Chu beside me, and was about to talk to him, hey, what about people?
