The process of Xiao Yan and others moving to the vicinity of the Prime Minister's Mansion was not smooth.

Although their tunnels can get them out of the danger zone and destroy some passages halfway to intercept the pursuers to the greatest extent, after all, the scope is limited, and it is impossible to connect half of Yanping City.

So they could only rush to the Prime Minister's Mansion from the ground. Of course, the Prime Minister's Mansion was located in the central area, and it was impossible to build it near the city walls at the edge, so they had to walk a long way.

Tens of thousands of forbidden troops had poured into the city, and there were soldiers from the Governor's Mansion blocking the streets, so Xiao Yan and the others had to be cautious every step they took.

The streets were full of forbidden army soldiers and soldiers from the Governor's Mansion, and in the high places with a slightly wider field of vision, whether it was the roof or the corner tower, there were Qi Realm cultivators scanning around, and there were almost no dead ends between each other.

Although there were two Wang Ji Realm guards, Xiao Yan successfully avoided many dangers, but the two old men, black and white, did not dare to show their aura blatantly, so as not to be detected by the Wang Ji Realm master of Yanping City, Zhao Xuanji and others.

Fortunately, the goal of the three people was not big, and they passed through several districts, and finally approached the prime minister's mansion.

It was at this time that they had to cross Suzaku Street, the central street that runs through the north and south of Yanping City, the so-called Imperial City Street, which was very wide and had the largest number of forbidden troops on it.

Three steps, one sentry, five steps and one post, not far away, there are hundreds of armor soldiers, ready to support everywhere at any time. There are no gaps at all.

Not only that, but there are also many powerhouses of the Yuan Shen Realm, on the rooftops on both sides of the street, like goshawks, patrolling everywhere, among which there are many masters in the middle and late stages of the Yuan Shen Realm.

The most terrifying thing is that the aura of those King Extreme Realm powerhouses in Yanping City also continued to sweep from Suzaku Street.

The torches are connected to the main street of the long river, which is the real Longtan Tiger's Den.

After crossing this street, the Prime Minister's Mansion is close in front of you, that is the gate of life, you can't cross this street, there is no way to enter the heavens and the earth, that is the real death.

It is the Chu River and Han realm, and it is also separated by yin and yang.

It is not easy to wade through this river.

No, it's almost impossible.

The three of them stopped in the shadows of the street corner, quickly surveyed the situation of the street, and their faces changed violently.

Suddenly, the white-eyed old man and the black-eyed old man glanced at each other. It's just a meeting of eyes, these two friends of life and death who fought side by side in a small game, and they understood each other's minds.

It's not hard to understand.

In the current situation, there is only one option to successfully cross this street.

"I'll go!" the white-eyed old man looked resolutely, dropped this sentence, and was about to jump up from the spot.

The black-eyed old man grabbed him, his face was as pale as iron, and he couldn't refuse: "In Daizhou City, you have already broken off once, this time, it's my turn to say anything!"

The white-eyed old man roared in a low voice: "For the sake of Your Highness, for the glory of the Tianyuan Royal Court, even if I die a hundred times, I will definitely not frown! From the moment I followed His Highness to Yanping City, I had no intention of going back alive!"

The black-eyed old man smiled indifferently, "That's right, I think the same way."

"Take care of Your Highness, you must bring Your Highness back to the royal court, otherwise my soul will not be at peace......!

"Finally, remember to tell my son that I will watch him by Changshengtian's side, waiting for the moment when he follows the army into Yanping City!"

Before the words fell, before the old man with red eyes with red eyebrows said anything, the old man with red eyebrows had already disappeared in place.

"No, Hei Lao, come back ......" Xiao Yan, who had always had a cold face, her eyes were already full of tears at this moment, and she stretched out her hand towards the place where Hei Mei left, but she was unable to stop the other party.

She knew what the old man with black eyebrows was going to do, and she also knew what the other party would face, and she knew that this was the only way at the moment, but she couldn't accept it when she watched the elders who were with her die at the same time.

It's already too late.

The next moment, the figure of the black-eyed old man was already rushing in the opposite direction of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

He didn't deliberately make any movements, let alone attack any soldiers of the forbidden army, but just used his cultivation strength to make a posture of rushing out of Yanping City with lightning speed.

Almost at the same time, a thunderous voice exploded in the air of Yanping City, "Where is the thief!"

In an instant, the aura of several King Extreme Realm powerhouses chased after the black-eyed old man, and there were even a large group of Yuan Shen Realm masters, and the geese generally flew out from everywhere.

The soldiers of the forbidden army on Suzaku Street, under the shouts of their respective generals, a large part of them chased in the direction where the old man with black eyebrows left.

Seeing that the black-eyed old man, like a swimming fish chased by sharks, went straight to the city wall with countless pursuers behind him, Xiao Yan's tears finally couldn't help it and burst out of his eyes.

Growing so big, she had never felt so incompetent and weak at a moment, as she is now.

The white-eyed old man saw a gap, dragged Xiao Yan across Suzaku Street, and hid in the middle of the houses.

......

Listen to Bamboo Garden.

Zhao Yujie saw the fireworks signal rising in the night sky.

Tonight's Yanping City is boiling in the sky, and the noise is so loud that it is far from comparable to the previous time when the Governor's Mansion attacked the White Clothes Society and the Goshawk Gang, and all kinds of fireworks signals continued to rise into the air.

Some of them are coordinating the forces of the Governor's Mansion everywhere, or scattering to pursue or encircle and intercept the opponent, some belong to Xiao Yan's command, conveying their respective orders to disperse and break through, conceal, and hibernate, and some belong to the generals or the forbidden army.

There are even more "abysses" belonging to Zhao Yujie.

Among the various fireworks signals one after another, Zhao Yujie saw the unusual lotus-shaped orange signal. It is issued by the "abyss", which means that the action cannot be continued.

In fact, there is no need for the "abyss" to send a signal, Zhao Yujie also knows that the action she arranged tonight can no longer be carried out as scheduled. The moment the forbidden army poured into the city, she was keenly aware that something was wrong.

The entry of the forbidden army into the city must be a major event in the city.

And only with the emperor's approval and the transfer of troops and tiger talismans, can the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion issue this order.

Since it was the order of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion where Zhao Xuanji was sitting, it meant that Xiao Yan's action tonight had only the possibility of failure.

At that moment, Zhao Yujie's hands and feet were cold.

Since she left Daizhou City, Xiao Yan has been her biggest support, and it is by relying on the help of the other party that she can have today's good situation.

They know each other's identities and share weal and woe, and if either party is in prison, the other party has the possibility of being confessed, and there is a high possibility that their future will be ruined.

In Zhao Yujie's heart, Xiao Yan is very powerful, daring to act, hands and eyes are open to the sky, not afraid of danger, compared with the decaying Great Qi court and family officialdom, Xiao Yan is undoubtedly more like a pioneer, with the quality of achieving great things.

She never thought that Xiao Yan would lose.

For a moment, Zhao Yujie once again felt her weakness and helplessness.

But in the next moment, her thoughts raced, and she quickly weighed the pros and cons of the current situation, thinking about how to maximize her own interests.

Not long after, the personal maid Dong Li stepped into the door with small steps, and bowed behind Zhao Yujie to report: "Miss, Fluttershy is out of the door, and she is in a hurry." ”

"Why did she go out suddenly?" Zhao Yujie frowned.

"It's like I've seen some kind of fireworks. Dong Li recalled the situation at the time, according to the truth, "She said that she had an upset stomach and wanted to go to the thatched house, but she turned around halfway and went out through the back door." ”

Between the lightning and flint, countless thoughts flashed in Zhao Yujie's mind.

She doesn't trust anyone, not even her own subordinates. In order to control her power, she has a set of methods of covert surveillance of her subordinates, and the closer she is to her people, the greater the surveillance.

After entering the Prime Minister's Mansion, Zhao Yujie had more financial resources and learned a lot from here.

It is reasonable that Xiao Yan will send someone to lurk around her and monitor her every move to prevent her from getting out of control and doing anything unfavorable to Xiao Yan.

It's not been a day or two since she suspects Fluttershy, and she basically finds out the other party's true identity.

"At this time, Fluttershy is secretly going out, what is the matter?" Zhao Yujie pondered the question, and soon had an answer.

It is not difficult to deduce this answer, and in the current situation, there are not many possibilities.

"Xiao Yan, Yanyan Temur, Princess Beihu......" Zhao Yujie silently chewed on these identities, knowing that she was about to meet the other party.

What should she do?

What can I do to best protect my interests?

......

Near the Prime Minister's Mansion, at a street corner blocked by the soldiers of the Governor's Mansion, Zhao Ning met Zhang Wenzheng.

The two briefly exchanged the situation here, and Zhao Ning walked to a stone bench under the big locust tree nearby, closed his eyes and rested.

Just now he had already received news that Zhao Xuanji and the others had arrested a Wang Ji Realm cultivator, but he was not alive. After the other party was caught up outside Yanping City, he didn't do much resistance at all, and decisively ended his life.

Although the living person was not caught, a Wang Ji Realm cultivator who did not belong to the Great Qi was enough to prove a lot of things.

And here in Zhao Ning, he now confirmed his inference even more: Xiao Yan is still in Yanping City.

A Beihu King Extreme Realm would rather sacrifice himself than be caught by Zhao Xuanji and others, it could only be to cover Xiao Yan.

At the same time, the action of the cultivators of Yipinlou to pursue Zhao Yujie's subordinates also came to an end.

This result is not that Yipinlou caught the other party, but confirmed that the other party did not meet with Xiao Yan and did not take in the other party.

After ruling out all possibilities, then Xiao Yan only had one place to go.

After a while, Zhao Ning opened his clear eyes and glanced in the direction of the Prime Minister's Mansion, faintly seeing the cornices like iron pens and golden hooks.

Destroying the small force of the "abyss" is just a matter of Zhao Ning's words, but not now-how can it wait until dawn to confirm that Xiao Yan has entered the Prime Minister's Mansion.

At the moment, Zhao Ning only cares about one issue.

Will Zhao Yujie take Xiao Yan in.

If Zhao Yujie chooses to turn her face with Xiao Yan and not take the other party in, then Xiao Yan can only go somewhere else.

No matter where this place is, there will be no security in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and no matter who the receiver of this place is, for Xiao Yan, it will not be more powerful than Zhao Yujie to protect her, nor will it be more trustworthy than Zhao Yujie.

But for Zhao Ning, this place is even more difficult to find.

It may be the residence of a wealthy official who was bought, or it may be the hidden wall or basement of the family next to the branch of a certain family, and there are many possibilities.

The other party may turn against the water and betray Xiao Yan, but it is also possible to be coerced, bought, and deceived, so he will not turn his face with Xiao Yan for the time being, and hide Xiao Yan well.

There are many dreams at night, and once the time is long, no one knows what will happen.

The forbidden army can lock the city for one, three, or ten days, but it can't do it for a month or three months.

What Zhao Ning wanted was for Xiao Yan to be arrested tonight.

As long as Xiao Yan is caught, his goal of action this time will be successfully achieved.

When he was in Daizhou City, Zhao Ning failed to kill Zhao Yujie, and later planned to pull out the paradigm smoothly by relying on the other party;

Last year, he failed to stab on the street, and Zhao Yujie's chess piece was able to still move on the chessboard, if tonight, Zhao Ning could let Xiao Yan fall because of this chess piece, then the harvest would be greater than that day in Daizhou City.

"Will Zhao Yujie take in Xiao Yan?Can she not take in Xiao Yan?" With these two questions, Zhao Ning closed his eyes again.

Suddenly, the corners of his mouth lifted slightly, and a touch of sarcasm flashed.

He knows Zhao Yujie very well.

In his previous life, the hatred for each other was too great, so he knew Zhao Yujie very well.

Tonight, even if Zhao Yujie doesn't take Xiao Yan in, the latter will basically not be able to escape.
