Shangguan Hanbing later took the Yue Ren sword and entered the study. Shen Nian always felt that Shangguan Hanbing's back revealed a feeling of "generosity and righteousness".

Shen Nian didn't know what Shangguan Hanbing said to Shen Qing, in short, in the end, Shen Qing agreed and allowed Shen Nian to accompany Shangguan Hanbing to Tianshui City.

And after Shangguan Hanbing came out, Shen Nian always felt that Shen Qing looked at Shangguan Hanbing's eyes, and there was a little "sympathy" or something. Shen Nian looked confused.

Afternoon.

"What do you think my brother is looking for me?" Shen Nian sat at the table and looked at Mu Bai Chuyan and said mysteriously.

"What? What else can you do? I don't send good things anymore, and I don't take you to find good things. Mu Bai rolled his eyes and said.

"You're smart. Then guess where he asked me to go with him. Shen Nian looked at Mu Bai Chuyan with playfulness in his eyes, and raised his eyebrows.

Mu Bai Chuyan glanced at each other and looked at Shen Nian with a smile on his face. "It can't be that coincidental." Chu Yan opened his mouth and said.

Shen Nian nodded, "It's such a coincidence." ”

"Phantom Sea Sky Water City?" Mu Bai asked uncertainly.

Shen Nian nodded.

"It's not fate, let's go to that place." Mu Bai came to the sentence.

Shen Nian shook his head, "We're just going to Tianshui City, but we're not sure to go to the bottom of the Phantom Sea, that unintentional cave." So I won't go without a necessary reason. ”

"You don't want to go." Chu Yan opened his mouth and said.

Shen Nian shrugged, "Actually, it's not, I just want to see how important that place is." ”

"Then this time, Xiao Yu'er and Xiao Ion will go with us?" Mu Bai asked.

Shen Nian nodded, "Let's go together." ”

"What about Bao'er and Mingyan?" Chu Yan asked.

"Bao'er's body is almost the same now, so let's go with us." Shen Nian said.

"Together?" Mu Bai frowned.

"Don't worry, I've calculated, Bao'er will be good this time." Shen Nian said with a wink.

"What's good, what's good?" Chu Yan asked.

"I don't know, I'm just a fortune teller, and I'm not a prophecy." Shen Nian shrugged and spread his hands.

Mu Bai stuck out his tongue, "I thought you were omnipotent." ”

"If I really are omnipotent, I just want to know what kind of character Brother Yan's master is." Shen Nian said slightly seriously.

"Didn't you say that you sent carrier pigeons to Master Tianqingzi? Did Master Tianqingzi reply to you? Chu Yan asked.

Shen Nian shook his head, "That's the point, I asked the master, the pigeon flew back, but there was no news." ”

"But don't worry about it just yet. The master must have seen the message I wrote, and as for what the master thinks, let's talk about it. Shen Nian shrugged and said.

"And when are we leaving?"

"Three days later." Shen Nian opened his mouth and said. Then Shen Nian smiled at Chu Yan, and Chu Yan silently stepped back, "Hehe, Chu Yan, this trip has to rely on you again." ”

"I see." Chu Yan shook his head helplessly. Every time he went out, it was Chu Yan who took care of everything. He's used to it, too.

"And this time, I'm going out to disguise myself as a man." Shen Nian said.

"You dress as a man, you can see it at a glance." Mu Bai said.

"It's okay, I'll put on makeup when the time comes, it's okay." Shen Nian opened his mouth and said.

"In short, let's cover the water and cover the earth when the soldiers come." After Shen Nian finished speaking, he stood up and left.

Evening. Shen Nian directly lifted his anger and went to the Jinxi Palace.

"Princess." When the housekeeper saw Shen Nian fall in the courtyard of Jinxi Palace, he thought it was an assassin at first, but when he looked at Shen Nian, he immediately smiled on his old face.

"Where is Brother Yan? Have you eaten? Shen Nian asked.

"The prince is still in the study, and he hasn't eaten yet." The butler said with a smile.

Shen Nian nodded, "Then I'll go find Brother Yan, you don't have to care about me." Shen Nian said.

"Yes." The housekeeper smiled kindly and looked at Shen Nian's departing back. Shen Nian often came to Jinxi Palace, so he went to the study by himself without leading the way.

The housekeeper saw Shen Nian's figure disappear, and the smile on his face immediately turned serious, "Hurry up, all move, the princess is here." Fast. "The people around me were nervous, but they were very agile, and they seemed to have rehearsed many times.

Den.

Gao Lingyan was watching the performance, there was only one lamp in the house, and the light shone on Gao Lingyan's face, and the shadows were cast, which was a rare masterpiece. Gao Lingyan shook his head helplessly, put down the fold, and looked at the window. There was tenderness in his voice, "Why don't you come in."

A small head popped up, and it was Shen Nian, "Hehe, Brother Yan." ”

Gao Lingyan smiled and looked doting, stood up, walked to the window, opened his arms, and Shen Nian rushed in directly, just planted in Gao Lingyan's arms.

Gao Lingyan rubbed Shen Nian's head, then lowered his head and imprinted a kiss on the top of Shen Nian's hair, and then hugged Shen Nian tightly. Shen Nian also tightened his arms, obviously he hadn't seen Brother Yan for a day, why did he feel like it had been a long time.

"I miss you, Brother Yan." Shen Nian buried his head in Gao Lingyan's arms and said.

Gao Lingyan was stunned when he heard this, "It just so happens that I am too." ”

Shen Nian grinned.

"Brother Yan, hungry." Shen Nian pouted and looked up at Gao Lingyan.

"Butler, pass the meal." Gao Lingyan shouted.

The housekeeper had been waiting outside for a long time. "Yes." Turn around and leave immediately.

Gao Lingyan took Shen Nian's hand and went to the dining room. "I ran out without eating, and Ziqing actually released people."

"I sneaked out. Big brother doesn't know, big brother is dying of busyness, and he can't take care of me recently. Shen Nian said.

"I heard that the Nine Emperor Princes have come to look for you." Gao Lingyan pulled Shen Nian to the dining room.

The housekeeper asked his subordinates to finish the meal, so that the eyes made everyone go down, and also closed the door intimately, and at the same time gave Gao Lingyan a look. Gao Lingyan was speechless and almost wanted to twitch the corners of his mouth.

"Yes, my brother said that I would accompany him to Tianshui City." Shen Nian said as he sat down.

"But I don't know why my brother wants me to go with him." Shen Nian said.

"I haven't had time to get along with you since I was a child, so I naturally want to stay with you more." Gao Lingyan said.

"That's the reason." Shen Nian said.

Gao Lingyan nodded, "Otherwise, you think." ”

"But Brother Yan, you know the affairs of the Northern Dynasty and the Southern Dynasty." Shen Nian asked.

"Do you mean, Nangong Fengshi and Wang Boxian, the prime minister of the Southern Dynasty, were together?" Gao Lingyan helped Shen Nian pick up vegetables.

Shen Nian nodded, "However, Brother Yan, why are the two of them together." Moreover, Wang Boxian is the prime minister of a country, shouldn't he be cautious in doing things, why is he seen. And he was about what Nangong Feng was and what his purpose was. ”

"Unless he was seen on purpose." Shen Nian opened his mouth and said.

Gao Lingyan nodded, "Go on." ”

"At the beginning, it was clear that the Southern and Northern Dynasties were connected, and it was Ouyang Yuntian and Nangong Fengshi, but Nangong Fengshi had an accident in the Southern Dynasties, and Ouyang Yuntian did not help. Now it is when Wang Boxian saved this Nangong Feng. What are you doing when you save Nangong Feng, it's useless when Nangong Feng is in the air. Shen Nian said.

Gao Lingyan nodded, "Yes, now the Southern Dynasty Kingdom is already in the hands of the crown prince Nangong Fengye." Nangong Feng did look useless. ”

"Looks? Could it be that there is still something killer that cannot be achieved when Nangong Feng. Shen Nian said.

"Why do you think so?" Gao Lingyan sandwiched a piece of fish meat into Shen Nian's bowl, "You eat first, aren't you hungry." ”

Shen Nian nodded, ate the fish, and said at the same time: "What I thought before was that when I saved Nangong Fengshi, it was just to let Nangong Fengshi ascend the throne, so that there would be one more ally, and if it was done well, Nangong Fengshi could be directly used as a puppet." Then Nangong Feng must still be valuable. Shen Nian said.

"A lady is smart." Gao Lingyan looked at Shen Nian and laughed.

Shen Nian's face suddenly turned red, what, how do you feel that Brother Yan is now more and more fond of teasing himself.

"It is said that the emperor of the former Southern Dynasties left a posthumous photo." Gao Lingyan said.

"Posthumous photo. Could it be that it is the name of Nangong Fengshi? Shen Nian looked at Gao Lingyan and said.

"I don't know, but the photo is in Nangong Fengshi's hand. And Nangong Fengye has been delayed in ascending the throne because of this danger. Gao Lingyan explained.

"Since this is the case, doesn't that prove that the emperor of the Northern Dynasty wants to meddle in this matter." Shen Nian said.

"The Southern and Northern Dynasties are located right on the south and back sides of our country, and if they want to have a connection with each other, no matter what, they will pass through our country's trade routes, which is really not afraid of trouble." Shen Nian opened his mouth and said.

"And Wang Boxian was seen, which proves that Nangong Fengye will also know about it. Then it is time for the Northern and Southern Dynasties to negotiate. Shen Nian said.

Gao Lingyan said something else, "What is the current situation in the Northern Dynasty." ”

"Rong He sent me the news before, and now the national affairs of the Northern Dynasty are in the hands of Nangong Fengye. I was still wondering why he never ascended the throne, it turned out to be because of this. Shen Nian touched his chin and said.

Gao Lingyan sandwiched another piece of meat for Shen Nian, "If you stop the chopsticks again, I won't tell you anything." ”

Shen Nian nodded, immediately picked up the chopsticks, and ate seriously. Gao Lingyan laughed, this little girl.

"What about Feng Zhi, what status is it now?" Gao Lingyan asked.

"Feng Zhi is Nangong Feng Ye's own sister, it stands to reason that Feng Zhi should be treated well, but Rong He said that Feng Zhi's status is very embarrassing now."

"Do you remember the Red Dust Inn we went to Hecheng before?" Gao Lingyan said.

Shen Nian nodded, "Remember, Qianyuan and Sister Yiyi." "It's Fu Qianyuan and Xie Yi.

"You told me last time that you don't think they are from the Eastern Dynasties, because some things are still different in the inn there."

Shen Nian nodded. "After thinking about it, it gives me a bit of a feeling of being in the south of the country."

Gao Lingyan had appreciation in his eyes.

"Brother Yan, what is the identity of Qianyuan and Sister Yiyi?" Shen Nian asked.

"Xie Yi's original name is Wang." Gao Lingyan said. "And Wang Boxian's daughter is rumored to have died in a fire three years ago."

Shen Nian's eyes widened, "Sister Yiyi won't be Wang Boxian's daughter." ”

Gao Lingyan nodded, "Exactly." ”

"What about Qianyuan?" Shen Nian asked.

"Qianyuan is a native of the Eastern Dynasties. I'm a friend myself. Gao Lingyan said.

"Brother Yan, what's going on?"

"Back then, the two people were in love, but Wang Boxian didn't let it, because after all, they were from two countries. However, if the emperor of the Southern Dynasty wants to be able to control the Wang family, he needs Xie Yi to enter the palace. But Wang Boxian knew that once Xie Yi entered the palace, then this life might be over. Wang Boxian wanted to let Xie Yi go. But the emperor felt that this was an offense to Tianwei and secretly killed him. But I happened to be passing by and saved both of them. Then send it back to the Eastern Dynasty. Wang Boxian had always thought that his daughter died by accident. But later, Xie Yi went back to see Wang Boxian before leaving the Southern Dynasty. ”

"In that case, wouldn't Wang Boxian hate the emperor of the Southern Dynasty very much. But he is not the emperor of the Southern Dynasty. Shen Nian said.

"Water can carry a boat, and it can also capsize a boat." Gao Lingyan said.

"In that case, I almost understand the affairs of the Southern Dynasty. What about the Northern Dynasties? What role does Feng Zhi play in it? Shen Nian asked.

"Nangong Fengye looks at Feng Zhi, it's just that the other party is just a tool." Gao Lingyan said.

"So?"

"I have exchanged letters with Feng Zhi."

"Brother Yan has to mean that this time it was actually Wang Boxian who wanted to take revenge, and Feng Zhi wanted to take the opportunity to destroy Nangong Fengshi and Nangong Fengye." Shen Nian said with some uncertainty.

"The lady is so smart." Gao Lingyan said with an appreciative smile.

"What about you, Brother Yan?" Shen Nian asked.

"I'm a matchmaker." Gao Lingyan said softly.

"Wow, Brother Yan, I feel like you're wilted." Shen Nian opened his mouth and said.

Gao Lingyan knocked Shen Nian's forehead, "You, what are you talking about." There is such a thing as saying that your father-in-law. ”

"Xianggong, I'm praising you." Shen Nian blinked.

Gao Lingyan was very happy by the word "Xianggong".

"Brother Yan, will you come with us this time?" Shen Nian asked.

Gao Lingyan nodded, "Naturally." ”

"That's good." Shen Nian laughed when he heard this. No matter what, the most important thing is Brother Yan.

"By the way, Brother Yan, I want to ask you about your master." Shen Nian said.

Gao Lingyan's body stiffened, and then said, "Okay, you say."

"Brother Yan, how did you meet your master?" Shen Nian asked.

"I was out and about, and he was being bullied by the roadside pretending to be a beggar, and I saved him. Then he thought about my martial arts. Then throw me to the snowy mountains, and you'll know the rest. ”

"And what about his name?"

Gao Lingyan shook his head.

"That's weird." Shen Nian said.

Gao Lingyan nodded, "I also think it's strange." ”

"And I asked the master about your master at that time, but the master didn't reply to my message. I don't know what's going on. Shen Nian frowned.

"How do you feel about him?" Gao Lingyan asked suddenly.

"The last time he gave me the unintentional natal spirit weapon, it was the 'emotion'." Shen Nian frowned. "And his martial arts are very high, I even suspect that the master is not an opponent."

"He, I really don't know." Gao Lingyan said.

"Then what else did he teach you, Brother Yan." Shen Nian asked.

"There is only a sword decision."

"By the way, Brother Yan, last time in Mingyue Lake, did you practice the martial arts that were unintentionally left for you? And "The Book of Dragons", can you read it? Shen Nian later gave Gao Lingyan the Book of Dragons.

"I have practiced that martial art in Mingyue Lake, and it does complement my own martial arts. As for the "Book of Dragons", I don't understand the mysteries in it, but I vaguely feel that it is similar to my martial arts, but I still don't know the specifics. ”

"What the hell is going to be done now?" Shen Nian said unconsciously, with worry in his tone.

"Don't worry, I've got you covered." Gao Lingyan put down his chopsticks, pulled Shen Nian into his arms and said.

Shen Nian nodded and hugged Gao Lingyan, "Brother Yan, you must not hide anything from me." ”

Shen Nian obviously felt Gao Lingyan's body tremble. Shen Nian raised his head and looked at Gao Lingyan, his big eyes, as if he was seeking an answer.

Gao Lingyan only felt a tightness in his heart.

"When did you know?" Gao Lingyan sighed and said.

"Why didn't you tell me?" Shen Nian opened his mouth and said.

Gao Lingyan let out a long sigh, as if he had removed the shackles, closed his eyes and said, "I actually didn't want to hide it from you, it's just that I didn't expect you to know it so quickly." ”

"How can you hide it from me. Even though you clean up multiple times each time, I can still smell the blood. Brother Yan, tell me. ”

"Actually, I don't know what's going on. It's just that five years after I came out of the snowy mountains, I found that I had inner demons. Gao Lingyan said.

"Demons. However, there are very few demons in martial arts now. ”

"The exercises I practiced were unintentionally learned." Gao Lingyan hugged Shen Nian, combed Shen Nian's hair and said.

"Is there any way to get rid of the demons?" Shen Nian looked at Gao Lingyan with worry in his eyes.

Gao Lingyan shook his head, "I don't know yet." ”

"Then can I find your master?"

Gao Lingyan shook his head, "I don't know how to find it." I've sent all my men down, but it's still hard to find. ”

Shen Nian lowered his head and didn't count, but thought about what to do.

Gao Lingyan lowered his head and kissed the top of Shen Nian's hair, "Nian'er, I am starting to lose control of my inner demons, if I really do it one day" Gao Lingyan was interrupted by Shen Nian before he could finish speaking, "If you die, I will die." Where you go, I will definitely go to you. The upper poor blue falls down the yellow spring. The firmness in Shen Nian's eyes made Gao Lingyan feel certain, in fact, he was indeed a little unsteady recently, but now looking at Shen Nian's appearance, his heart suddenly calmed down.

Shen Nian saw that Gao Lingyan suddenly stopped speaking, and suddenly became nervous. At first, she was still struggling with whether to tell this matter, but now she saw that Gao Lingyan didn't speak, and the whole person panicked.

"Fool, I'm Gao Lingyan. I didn't let the demons run rampant back then, how could I have something. Fool. Gao Lingyan saw Shen Nian's flustered little expression, shook his head and smiled, and reached out to take Shen Nian into his arms.

Shen Nian's heart fell, but suddenly he felt a sour nose, and tears fell.
