When it came to the fifteenth day, that is, the last day that Wang Mang agreed to stay in the imperial capital.

At noon on this day, Ji Yun and Ji Xuan practiced martial arts in a secret retreat unique to their Ji family as usual.

Suddenly, while they were in retreat, the door was pushed open without warning. Three young men in their twenties, a man and a woman, came to the door.

These three people, the handsome and dashing jade tree in the wind, full of battle rage, eyebrows into the clouds. The woman's graceful and graceful, alluring the country and the city, are comparable to Ji Rou who brought disaster to the country and the people, and has the charm that makes people sink at a glance.

The power of the Ji family is huge and mysterious, and no one knows the specific situation. Even Feng Yi, Pi Tong, Li Zhong and others, they didn't know where the Ji family's stronghold in the imperial capital was, and even Wang Mang didn't know either.

Perhaps in the eyes of Feng Yi and others, the Ji family has no power at all, or no stronghold in the imperial capital.

Ji Yun and Ji Xuan saw the three people in front of them suddenly appear in front of them, not only did not have any surprised expressions on their faces, but they didn't even have a trace of fluctuation.

It seems to have been expected for a long time, and it seems to be taken for granted.

"You're finally here!" Ji Yun slowly collected his efforts and stood up, his eyes revealing a sharp gaze. It seems that after this retreat, he has washed away the lead and successfully transformed, and his martial arts cultivation has reached a new level.

"We didn't want to come, but now we have to."

One of the women who came shook the sword in her hand, her face full of frost: "Ji Yun, you are known as the number one young talent master of our Ji family." But if you look at what you've done over the years, what have you achieved? Even Ji Rou was captured.

Many of the elders were very angry at this. And Ji Rou's grandfather was furious, planning to go out of the mountain in person to ask you for the crime. Fortunately, the patriarch stepped forward and stabilized the situation for the time being. ”

The woman who spoke was naturally a helping hand sent by the Ji family. And the sword that emitted a faint light in her hand was the water sword that originally belonged to Ji Rou, commonly known as the soft sword.

Last time, Ji Yun asked Ji Yan to return to the Ji family with the soft sword and the willow sword, find a suitable sword master again, and inherit the throne of the Lord of the Nine Swords.

The Ji family has already handled this matter and successfully found two suitable candidates, inheriting Liu Jian and Rou Jian.

As for the three people who suddenly came at the moment, the male man is naturally Ji Yan, the master of the fire sword, and the remaining two women are the newly promoted Ji Xue, the lord of the willow sword, and Ji Shuang, the lord of the soft sword.

As the name suggests, although these two women are beautiful, erect, and full of chests, their facial expressions are as isolated as snow, and the other is as cold as hoarfrost, which is intimidating and dare not approach.

Ji Yun listened to Ji Shuang's accusation, and his face remained unchanged. It seems that he has completely changed as a person, not as impulsive as before, and his arrogance is basically restrained, which makes people feel like a spring breeze.

"Ji Shuang, are you scared of me? As the first person of the younger generation of the Ji family, although he has not done anything big in the past few years, he is also so-so, and he has not been derelict in his duties. As for Ji Rou being arrested, this is providence, and she can't be forced. I think the clan elders must also know Wang Mang's ability, otherwise wouldn't the clan elders send law enforcers to arrest me?

You are not in a position to accuse me of this. Because according to the situation and situation at the time, there was basically no good choice, unless he planned to reconcile with Wang Mang. ”

Ji Yun said lightly: "Of course, don't talk much." The patriarch asked you to come over, what important instructions did you convey? What are you going to let us do? How to deal with the war on the frontier? ”

Ji Xue didn't mention it for the time being, and said that Ji Shuang, in Ji Yun's eyes, she couldn't look down on it at all. Because Ji Shuang is a later replacement, not the original master of the soft sword.

In other words, Ji Shuang's qualifications, perceptions and abilities are worse than Ji Rou, the original owner of the sword. Otherwise, the original master of the soft sword was not Ji Rou, but Ji Shuang.

The position of the Lord of the Five Elements Sword, the elder of the Ji family does not give it to whoever is honorable, but to make a comprehensive judgment and select the best. It is necessary to be ahead of others in terms of qualifications, understanding, cultivation, and so on.

Now Ji Yun sneered at himself as soon as he saw this woman coming, so he refuted the past quietly.

Ji Shuang sneered: "Ji Yun, the patriarch has an order, let the five of us go to Gansu together, secretly kill the enemy generals, we must control the battle situation, and we must not let the enemy army go south unscrupulously."

This time, the patriarch has found out that there are nine super masters in the enemy army, and they correspond to the nine sons of the demon dragon, all of whom are strong in cultivation and have profound martial arts. Compared to us as a whole, they are slightly worse, but they are not much worse. Especially the leading master, it is estimated that he is three points more powerful than you now.

Last time, the fifteenth prince was defeated, 100,000 troops were killed, and millions of people were slaughtered, and the nine of them contributed a lot. According to the patriarch's intentions, we must stop these nine people, and at least not let them massacre the generals of Wang Mang's side.

At present, Wang Mang is indeed the most suitable commander of the three armies, if he can't hold the border for a long time, then our Kyushu will usher in a catastrophe, and hundreds of millions of people will be robbed.

The clan elders hope that the situation of the battle can be eased, and that the two sides can be in a state of parity. Our side should neither fail too quickly nor succeed too quickly, and drag on as long as it can, exacerbate the domestic turmoil, and assist the clan elders in finding their true destiny.

Also, this time the main force of the Xiongnu army rushed to Gansu, and some of the remaining small countries also organized some men and horses in Qinghai. The clan elder said that we don't need to pay attention to the part of the troops in Qinghai, just deal with the Gansu side wholeheartedly. At the same time, the clan elder issued the supreme clan order, asking us to only succeed this time, and not to fail. ”

On the side, Ji Xuan asked, "The clan elders only said so much?" Do they have more details about the true destiny? ”

Ji Xue replied: "The clan elders are very puzzled about this matter, in the results of this calculation, the true son of heaven should have been born a long time ago, but it was hidden by the snow, and some kind of introduction is needed to show the emperor's might."

The clan elder speculated that the reason why the true son of heaven was hidden should be that his own luck was suppressed by another force, so he could not appear for a long time and could not be found, resulting in chaos in the sky. This time, the clan elder planned to stabilize the situation on the frontier, exacerbate the internal contradictions in Kyushu, and force the Son of Heaven to show his traces. Then the Son of Heaven himself will solve the border war and replace Wang Mang. ”

"It turns out that the clan always plans to let the true son of heaven step on Wang Mang's shoulder? Hehe, I see. "Ji Xuan's wisdom is extraordinary, and he can understand it at one point.

Now he guessed the plans of the clan elders and smiled.

"According to the agreement, Wang Mang will go to Gansu tomorrow, so we will also leave tomorrow."

"It's good!" Ji Xue asked, "Do you know where Shangguan Ningxuan is?" I've heard that my willow sword has always been in her hands, and I'd like to see what she's capable of. was able to get Liu Jian's approval and drive the sword when Liu Jian couldn't recognize the master. ”

"She? The devil knows where she is. Ji Xuan shook his head and said: "This woman is indeed not good, and her means are superb. If she can really drive Liu Jian, it will not be easy for me to take her down smoothly.

Of course, if you want to see her, you may not have no chance in the frontier in the future. This woman has an inexplicable entanglement with Wang Mang. Now that Wang Mang is going to the frontier, how can she not go? When the time comes, you can find a chance to play with her. ”

"Okay, let's not gossip. This time, Feng Yi came in chaos, which caused our family's business to suffer a lot of impact, and the clansmen were quite resentful, you should come forward to make peace with the clansmen about this matter, so that they don't have to make trouble, so as not to deal with it badly. Ji Yun said.

"Okay, I'll say it."

Ji Xuan nodded, agreed, went out, and disappeared into the crowd on the street.
