【Western Regions/Geseyburg】

In the center of Geseburg is a dark hall that is not too small and slightly low and oppressive, which is the highest council of Geseburg.

Candles flickered around the hall, and in the center was a long rectangular table, in front of which sat several powerful generals and ministers of the Western Regions who were now in prominent positions.

The few seats at the long table were almost full. The king of peace, Duo Yice, was sitting in the second seat, and the main seat that originally belonged to Duo Yizhen was empty.

Duo glanced at the position directly opposite him, and the third seat was also empty.

That was the position of Duo Jie, the lord of Yanyang County.

Duo Yice's eyes were serious and gloomy, and he seemed extremely unhappy. He clasped his fingers and tapped the table lightly and heavily, as if thinking about something.

After a long time, he spoke in a low voice, not mentioning the Lord of Yanyang, but talking about the last person who was absent: "Miss Zhanjia is also absent?"

Miss Zhan Wanwan, her position is at the very end. Although the Zhan family is an important vassal family that follows the Geshiduo family, it is not a member of the Duo family after all, and Miss Zhanjia is a young woman, regardless of qualifications, prestige and ability, she is not outstanding in this high-level meeting.

Elder Duo Ming, who was sitting under the King of Peace, stroked his white beard, frowned and seemed to be about to speak, but was interrupted by the sound of the door being pushed open.

"Seniors, juniors are late, please forgive me. A woman with long dark red hair walked in, she was dressed in a light military uniform and carried a bow on her back, "I just got off the training ground, and it is difficult for recruits to take them." ”

A blunt tone, an irreverent attitude, and a perfunctory cliché. She just sat down, not looking at the others.

There was a silent accusation in King Heian's eyes, but he didn't make any trouble. Maybe it's because he understands that he needs someone like Zhan Yunwan now.

"Now that you're here, let's get started. Duo Yice glanced at Duo Jie's empty seat one last time and spoke slowly.

It seems that the Lord of Yanyang County will not come, or will not come.

"Former Venerable Lord Duo Yizhen, since the day he escaped from the trial of the Nine Dragons Lock Array of the Sealed Artifact, it has been two months and eight days now.

Why is there still no news from all the castle patrols and almost half of the Nine-Winged Light Cavalry?"

"It's not good for my subordinates, and the old man is responsible for this matter. A tall, eyepatch-looking man in his sixties and seventies spoke.

This is one of the three main generals of the Western Regions, an old minister who followed Duo Yiba to fight in the south and the north, and broke through the nearly eighth-order Duo Dome at the age of fifty-nine.

"According to the old decay, you can't blame the old general. Duo Ming spoke, "Although the evil Duo Yizhen was seriously injured, he is still a master of the demon with a spear. It is not easy to find someone in the vast desert. ”

Duo Ming was one of the most senior elders in the Western Regions, and among the nobles of the Geshiduo family back then, he was not ranked in the middle in terms of spiritual power, strategy, and knowledge. can live the longest, but he is the one who is as stable as Mount Tai in a high position.

"No matter how difficult it is, we must catch him to the Fa-rectification. Duo Yice crossed his hands, "Also, he is the former Lord Duo Yizhen, not the iniquent Duo Yizhen." Even if he forgets the blood feud of my Western Regions and defects to the Ghost Country, the fact that he is the former lord of my Western Regions is a fact anyway, Elder Ming. ”

"The old man lost his word, and the king of peace forgives his sins. Duo Ming bowed his head.

"Judging from the concubine's body, it is better to concentrate on the place where the former lord is most likely to hide, I wonder if you can know who the former lord is familiar with?" said a beautiful woman in the center, her voice was not loud or small, but everyone heard it.

This woman in red is the young second lady of the Lieyang family, to put it bluntly, it is the side room of the head of the family, in order to listen to it, she calls the second lady. The Lieyang family is another big Vassals of the Geshiduo family in addition to the war family.

"That makes sense. King Heian naturally understood what she meant. Lady Lieyang was familiar with this sentence, and lightly dropped a bomb on the young woman who was at the end of the year.

Acquaintance with whom, the implication is that someone is hiding this traitor.

Although no one turned their heads to look at her, Yun Wan felt that everyone present had turned their eyes to her in their hearts.

She raised an eyebrow and sat there with her arms folded, still silent.

"General Yunwan. Sure enough, Duo Yice spoke directly, "When the former lord was in power, you had a good impression of him and knew him well, where do you think he would hide?"

Although Yun Wan didn't want to speak, she knew that she couldn't be silent anymore: "My feelings for the former lord are well known. But the suspicion of the second lady of Lieyang, I can't stand it, and the Zhan family can't stand it. ”

"I wonder what happened to you, little general?" the second lady of Lieyang shook her fan and spoke quietly.

"Yun Wan is a straight person, and I am a straightforward person from the Western Regions. I don't like the second lady, you are beating around the bush. Yun Wan said without giving face.

This second lady of Lieyang is not from the Western Regions, her real name is Lian Xiu. It was from the Lian family of Nanze who married to the Lieyang family. Zhan Yunwan pointed out lightly that in this Western Regions, the second lady is an outsider.

Lady Lieyang's gaze froze, and then she said faintly: "The little general is such a powerful mouth, it is better to see it than to hear it." The concubine is just a matter of facts, and the little general is like this, but it is too much. ”

"Zhan Yunwan. Duo Yice raised his voice slightly.

Yun Wan turned her gaze from the ill-intentioned woman's face to Duo Yice, she understood that Duo Yice was accusing her of inappropriate words and deeds, and also urging her to answer his question: "Lord Ping'an, it is true that Yun Wan admires the former lord, but the former lord has no feelings for Yun Wan beyond the monarch and ministers, where the former lord will go, Yun Wan doesn't know." ”

"Still. She got up and saluted deeply to King Ping'an, "Yun Wan's loyalty to the Geshiduo family, the loyalty of the warriors to the Geshiduo family, the yellow sand of the Western Regions, and the military and civilians of the Western Regions can be learned. Yun Wan has no traitors. ”

The Lieyang family has long coveted the status of the war family. The second lady actually didn't have any ill feelings towards Yun Wan at first, but since this girl's momentum gradually rose, she entered the highest council hall and trial hall of the Geshiduo family, and because of her Zhan surname, the second lady looked at her figure, and gradually became not so happy.

Zhan Yun and Duo Yizhen's rebellion was not a rare and good opportunity for the Lieyang family.

She didn't think that she could easily defeat this young female soldier with her fluttering words today, she only hoped to plant the seeds of doubt in the heart of Duo Yice, who was now in power.

Madame knew that Duo Yice's mind was not open-minded, and she was most displeased with a young man like Yun Wan.

Although the second lady has been a side room in recent years, she has much more means than the eldest lady of Lieyang, she looks about thirty years old, and she has faded away from the young and childish spirit of a girl, and what remains is the mature and enchanting beauty of a woman.

She made full use of her appearance, often going in and out of the castles of many families in the Western Regions, and exploring the personality preferences of the important figures in the Western Regions, especially Duo Yice.

But although Zhan Yunwan is young and straightforward, she is not a fool, she ridiculed the second lady as a Nanze person, and she didn't talk around the bush to be quick to talk, like the second lady, she also said it to Duo Yice.

You must know that Duo Yice has always agreed with one sentence: if you are not of my race, your heart will be different.

"The concubine also believes in the loyalty of the little general, after all, Miss Zhanjia is not an emotional person, and she will not be confused so much. The second lady of Lieyang shook her round fan, and her voice was not loud or small.

The knuckles of King Heian's index finger twitched subtly, and the lady was overjoyed, she understood that King Heian understood what she meant. Among all the people present, the most emotional one is probably only this Zhan Yunwan.

Just as King Heian was about to speak again, a woman's soft, ethereal laughter echoed through the room.

Everyone's hearts were shocked, like lightning strikes.

Duo Yice reacted the fastest, he frowned, and the spiritual power in his body was quickly released, and in an instant, the heavy tables and chairs all trembled slightly.

Zhan Yun stood up and drew his bow, and used his body to protect the three or two white-haired elders beside him.

"Who's coming?!" Duo exclaimed, in a deep voice.

"Heh......" A woman's figure appeared in front of everyone, she stood barefoot, her posture was like the wind swinging willows, black hair and white clothes, curling Tingting, her face was clear and beautiful like a lotus, and she was not stained with smoke and dust like a fairy.

Duo Yi looked at the woman's soft and bewitching single phoenix eyes. Like the two gentle cinnabar moles in the corners of the eyes, these eyes are not stained with the slightest murderous intent. But between her fingers was clearly stained with dark red blood.

He frowned, as if wondering who it was.

Zhan Yunwan also stared at the woman who was hanging in the air with white light, and said that it was fake to be unmoved in her heart, this woman was just standing there, and the powerful spiritual power that surged under her almost made her breathless.

Like Duo Yice, she guessed in her heart the name of this woman who could actually break into the important land of the Western Regions.

At this moment, Elder Duo Ming spoke, his voice trembled, as small as an ant, but in the extremely quiet room, everyone heard: "Xian, Princess Xianhui......"

【Western Regions/Eye of the Storm】

On the yellow sand, two travelers in white robes walked among the wind, sand and rocks.

"This place is next to the Bull Demon Plain where you live, but the wind is four or five times stronger. Duo Yizhen raised the sleeves of his white robe to block the scorching sun that almost burned his skin.

In this place, there is not even a place to close the shade.

"I once advised my father to fence off this place and set up a fortress as a training ground. Duo Yizhen pointed in a direction ahead and walked forward with Xiao Li, "But my uncle disagrees, he said that this place is too close to the ghost country, and it is very likely to be snooped on by the ghost country." ”

"The sun is so big here, and there are no cloudy days all year round, your uncle's conjecture is unlikely. Xiao Li gasped and said, because of the wind and sand, she needed to shout loudly, and Duo Yizhen could hear it.

"That's what I said to my uncle. Duo Yizhen said, "Although the ghost is strong, its strength will be weakened during the day under the scorching sun, and the strongest ghost, in order not to be weakened, will not appear at all during the day, and the weak ghost, if you get close to the training ground to spy, will definitely be discovered by us." ”
