It wasn't until the next city that everyone stopped to rest, and half a month had passed.

In the past ten days, everyone was on high alert, and no one dared to be careless, but fortunately, the whole process was unhindered and they arrived at the next city smoothly. Just at the gate of the city, everyone felt a trace of tension, the soldiers guarding the city seemed to be too strict, and some people were not allowed to enter the city at all.

Long Qianli stepped forward to investigate, observed from a distance for a while, and came back: "There has just been an accident in the city, it is said that there are demons mixed in it, and many people have been injured, and there are spies in the city, so now whether it is out of the city or into the city, it must be strictly checked, and once a suspicious person is found, he will be arrested immediately." ”

When everyone heard this, they immediately became nervous, they were all outsiders, and their faces were raw, and if they went, they wouldn't be regarded as spies.

"Don't panic, it's okay. Gu Lanyi is not worried about this, with the token of the night Brahma on her body, as well as her identity, even if she brings another hundred people in, it is no problem, but she is unwilling to publicize it.

However, when Gu Lanyi saw the name of the city clearly, he suddenly smiled again.

Lanling City.

I really didn't expect that she would come to Lanling County, the city in front of her is the county seat of Lanling County, and the county king Jiang Zhichang she knows, and the little county lord Jiang Wei is still a good friend of her son.

Knowing this, Gu Lanyi was much more convenient, she asked Long Qianli to step forward and say to the city guards that they were friends of the county king, and they came from afar to defect, and something happened to them through Red Cloud City, so that's why this is the case.

The city defenders had already heard about Red Cloud City, and when they saw their embarrassed appearance, they were a little less suspicious, but they didn't rush to let them into the city. When the person who went to the county marquis mansion to report came back, it turned out that Jiang Zhichang, the king of the county, came in person, and a group of frightened city guards hurriedly knelt down.

"It turned out to be the emperor's ......" Jiang Zhichang didn't finish his words before he was stopped by Gu Lanyi's eyes.

"You're welcome, the king of the county is passing through Lanling County this time, but there are too many people in the entourage, so I trouble you. Gu Lanyi smiled slightly, and only said that she went to the Nether Realm to pick up her family, and did not say much about the rest.

"I see, madam, please!" Jiang Zhichang said respectfully.

He only thought that the people behind Gu Lanyi were all members of the Gu family, although she looked a little embarrassed, but one of the middle-aged women did look very similar to Gu Lanyi, and her demeanor was intimate, so he guessed that it should be her mother.

Not only that, but even the little prince Gu Xiaotian was among them, which surprised Jiang Zhichang even more.

"It turns out that Xiaotian is also here, if Wei'er knows that you are here, she must be very happy. Come on, come on, madam, please, please, go to the house and rest for a while. Jiang Zhichang was very enthusiastic, and respectfully took Gu Lanyi and others into the city.

It was only after they were gone that a group of defenders came to their senses.

"What kind of big people are these, I have never seen Hou Ye so respectful, and he came out to greet him in person. ”

"Isn't it a noble person in the palace?" some people speculated, thinking whatever they wanted.

With the previous experience of Red Cloud City, everyone was really relieved to be able to rest for a while in the Marquis Mansion of Lanling County. They finally understood what the so-called danger in Gu Lanyi's mouth was, the prosperity of the upper realm and the spirit grass that could be seen everywhere, but more of it was a sudden danger.

The scenery of the Junhou Mansion made everyone a little more relaxed, and Jiang Zhichang quickly asked people to arrange it and take Gu Lanyi's family members to rest. The special courtyard was quickly prepared, and even nearly a hundred people were properly placed, Gu Lanyi saw it in his eyes, and he also had a small understanding of Jiang Zhichang's ability.

There were only her sons Gu Xiaotian, Sikong Shuai and Lei Luo left by her side, the mad emperor knew that there must be delicious food, and resolutely stayed next to the apprentice, Gu Chaoyue introduced her mother Gu Chaoyue to Jiang Zhichang and Mrs. Hou.

In the hall, everyone said a few words, and Gu Chaoyue had just chatted with Mrs. Hou when the little county lord Jiang Wei came.

I heard her cheerful and surprised voice from afar: "Brother Xiaotian, Brother Xiaotian!"

As soon as the bead curtain sounded, Jiang Wei ran in like a butterfly, her little face flushed, and she rushed directly in front of Gu Xiaotian.

"Hello Sister Viel. Gu Xiaotian introduced her with a smile: "The last time you entered the palace as a guest, you haven't seen them, these two are my good friends, this is Sikong Shuai, and this is Renault." ”

Jiang Wei saw that there were two peers beside Gu Xiaotian at this time, and hurriedly asked.

Sikong Shuai and Renault saw the little girl's upbringing and politeness, and they liked her very much, so they said hello, and after a while, several people became familiar with her.

A few children quickly went to the garden to play, leaving only Gu Lanyi and the Madness Emperor present, Gu Lanyi had something to talk about to Jiang Zhichang, and the Madness Emperor was waiting for delicious food.

"This is the ......" Jiang Zhichang looked at the mad emperor, he didn't know him, but this old man's momentum should not be underestimated, and even he couldn't see through the cultivation.

The Maddy Emperor raised his eyelids listlessly and said, "Don't look at it, if you still want to see the old man's cultivation, there is no way to wait for another thousand years." The old man was hungry, so he quickly brought something delicious. ”

When Jiang Zhichang heard this, he was shocked, he didn't expect him to be so careful, but he was still sensed by the other party.

Gu Lanyi said with a smile: "Master Hou doesn't need to be nervous, the old man has nothing else except for his love of food, he has been walking in the wilderness for half a month along the way, he is just greedy." You ask the kitchen to prepare more delicious food, and he is in a good mood to keep it. ”

"Yes, yes, yes, what are your characteristics here, hurry up and bring them up, the old man is hungry and thin. ”

Seeing the figure of the mad emperor, round like a water tank, and actually said that he was hungry and thin, Jiang Zhichang and his wife glanced at each other, they couldn't believe it, and quickly ordered the housekeeper to prepare for food.

The mad emperor waited leisurely, and Gu Lanyi had no time to talk about the things along the way.

Jiang Zhichang's face was a little heavy: "Ben Hou also knew about the matter of Red Cloud City, but he didn't expect the imperial concubine to be there, since the woman who escaped was not caught, I really don't know where she came from." ”

His heart moved, thinking that although the war between the Eastern Wilderness and the Northern Frontier had decreased recently, there were still small areas where the demons had sneak attacks. Even his Lanling County had just been attacked by a group of demons, and the mines of a large family in the city on the outskirts of the city were occupied by the demons, robbing a lot of precious ores and killing hundreds of people.

The family reported to Jiang Zhichang, and he sent a large number of masters and people from the family to join forces for more than ten days to repel the demons, and now they are searching for the spies of the demons in the city, so the defense in the city is so tight.

"Imperial Concubine, could that woman in purple also belong to the Demon Clan?" Jiang Zhichang guessed.

"It's not like a demon. Gu Lanyi shook his head.

The demon clan is very particular about the noble and the lowly, and attaches more importance to bloodline, and there is basically no half-demon or half-demon or half-demon situation. The woman said that she was the goddess of Miao Yan, but she and Jiang Zhichang both knew that the father of the goddess of Miao Yan was also a marquis in the Eastern Wilderness, and it was absolutely impossible for her to do such a thing openly, and she did not have this ability.

"I guess she should be someone pretending, the real Miao Yan Goddess is long dead. ”

Gu Lanyi recalled the fight between her and the woman, she was not even familiar with the other party's exercises and routines, which was completely different from that of the Eastern Wilderness, and even different from the demon clan in the north, could it be ...... She is not from the North, but from the South or the Western Sea?

There is cooperation between the Southern Regions and the Eastern Wilderness, and the friendship between the two sides is also good, if it is said that Chizun Yang disobeys the Yin and secretly sends people to make trouble in the Eastern Wilderness, this may not be big, and it is not necessary. And the West Sea ......

Gu Lanyi suddenly remembered one thing, last time in the mausoleum of the Demon Emperor, the Cloud Emperor of the West Sea appeared.

She seems to have a different kind of affection for Mo Yanyu?

"Speaking of the Cloud Emperor and the Demon Venerable, Ben Hou has also heard some rumors, but he doesn't dare to believe it too much. Hearing Gu Lanyi say this, Jiang Zhichang also remembered something.

"In the past, the West Sea and the Northern Territory did not interact with each other, but a few decades ago, the Cloud Emperor suddenly left the West Sea and went to the Northern Territory to settle accounts with the Demon Venerable. At that time, it was still rumored that the West Sea was going to war with the North, and many people sat back and watched the changes. ”

"Unexpectedly, a few years have passed, nothing has happened, but there is gossip that Yunhuang Yaoxi failed to court, but was rejected by the Night Demon Mo Yanyu, and as a result, the two had a big fight, and there was no follow-up. ”

Gu Lanyi's eyes flashed when he heard this: "Really?"

Jiang Zhichang smiled: "It's just gossip, no one takes it seriously, after all, it's the two lords, it's just a matter of talking behind their backs, who dares to discuss it publicly?"

Gu Lanyi recalled the scene when Yao Xi saw Mo Yanyu, when Mo Yan Yu was fighting with Qian Sha, she deliberately said a few words, and sure enough, Yao Xi was jealous and chased Mo Yanyu.

From this point of view, it is not a rumor, it is true!

However, even if Yaoxi likes Mo Yanyu, it can't prove that Xihai sent people to the Eastern Wilderness to make trouble and secretly support the demons. Before there was no evidence, Gu Lanyi didn't want to suspect Xihai easily, so as not to provoke discord between Xihai and Donghuang.

"This matter, after I go back, I will discuss it with the Night Brahma and investigate it clearly. ”

Gu Lanyi didn't have no clues, at least the red spark vine didn't take her with her before the woman fled. But it is also necessary for Yun Qingchen to wake up, otherwise he will even lose a life in vain.

I hope Yun Qingchen can survive it......

After saying this, Gu Lanyi mentioned the matter to Jiang Zhichang.

"Actually, I wanted to take everyone back to the royal city before, but these things happened along the way, and the plan changed again, I wonder if I can ask Master Hou to do me a favor?" Gu Lanyi asked.

"Imperial Princess, please speak. ”

Gu Lanyi's thoughts, except for the people of the Gu family, are only afraid that the other people will continue to move forward, I am afraid that there will be casualties, and the loss of each family has been so much that it has been out of the original plan.

It is not easy to find a suitable helper, under the survival of the fittest, the loss is greater, but what is left may grow.

"After the affairs of the spies in the city are settled, I want to leave them in Lanling County and hand them over some business. Hou Ye doesn't need to give special care, just treat him as an ordinary settler. Gu Lanyi said.

It turned out to be such a trivial matter, Jiang Zhichang immediately said: "Don't worry, concubine, this is no problem." If you are willing to stay in Lanling County, you will add a lot of popularity to my side. ”
