Things changed unexpectedly.

This city guard named Bi Qingwen turned out to be a person from Shantang?

No, to be more precise, he is Qin Yan's person, Kang Wuwei's person!

Although Meng Qi and Qin Yan didn't look at each other, at this time, Bi Qingwen's appearance was undoubtedly great news for both Meng Qi and Xia Sheng!

Meng Qi, who learned about this, didn't even verify Bi Qingwen's identity, so he took him to Xia Sheng's face.

Fortunately, Bi Qingwen was really from Shantang, and he was not the assassin arranged by the prince to trap Xia Sheng here, so Meng Qi's recklessness did not cause any big trouble.

Next, Xia Sheng finally learned the news of Qin Yan and Kang Wuwei through Bi Qingwen.

After the rebellion in Heishui Town, Qin Yan and Kang Wuwei fled outside the town as soon as possible, and when they wanted to go back to find Xia Sheng, they found that the entire Heishui Town was blocked by the private army of the ruling division and Pingnanhou.

Out of trust in Xia Sheng's strength and resourcefulness, coupled with Kang Wuwei's failure to regain his senses, Qin Yan made a quick decision and rushed to Maoling County with Kang Wuwei overnight, and got in touch with the Shantang branch in Yangcheng.

"Are they still in Yangcheng now?"

Regarding Xia Sheng's question, Bi Qingwen shook his head with some regret: "Young Master Xia is a step late, Miss and Master Kang have already rushed to Yingchuan first." ”

Hearing this, Xia Sheng couldn't help but sigh softly, one step is late, one step is late, because Kui Mu's halfway interception of the people in the Adjudication Division, coupled with the defection of Cheng Liran and Mo Lin, caused Xia Sheng to waste too much time halfway, and now he wants to catch up with Qin Yan and Kang Wuwei, it is already a little powerless.

But fortunately, with the response of the people in the good hall, Xia Sheng finally didn't have to worry about the prince's search for himself for the time being, and everyone successfully entered Yangcheng, after a night of running and tired, Xia Sheng decided to rest in Yangcheng for a day, and then continue to set off tomorrow to Yingchuan.

On this day, there were finally no accidents, and Xia Sheng finally slept peacefully after leaving White Horse Town.

By the time he woke up, it was already afternoon, and Bi Qingwen had already arranged everything, and selected more than a dozen elite cadres from Yangcheng Shantang to personally escort Xia Sheng and others out of Yangcheng.

Two days later, everyone successfully arrived in Yingchuan and was once again received by the people in Shantang, but Xia Sheng learned that Qin Yan and Kang Wuwei had returned to Luoyang.

Xia Sheng judged one thing from this, Kang Wuwei was likely to have woken up from enlightenment.

Otherwise, according to Qin Yan's temperament, she should be waiting for herself in Yingchuan.

"Kang Wuwei, this old fox ......"

Xia Sheng smiled and shook his head, he didn't think that there was anything wrong with Kang Wuwei's move, after all, from the current point of view, the two sides were just a mutually beneficial relationship, even if Kang Wuwei valued Xia Sheng again, there was no need to risk being a head-on enemy with the crown prince and personally escort Xia Sheng into Beijing.

Unless he can officially verify the authenticity of Xia Sheng's good copy.

And compared to Xia Sheng's life safety, Kang Wuwei cares more about the safety of his own young lady, for him, his first priority is not to help Xia Sheng escape the pursuit of the prince's subordinates, but to send Qin Yan back to Luoyang safely first!

Since the Blackwater Rebellion happened to separate the two sides, let's let it be......

Fortunately, Kang Wuwei still has a conscience, although he did not stay with Qin Yan to wait for Xia Sheng, but in the towns along the way, wherever there are good halls and branches, they have already greeted them, which makes Xia Sheng's next journey very comfortable.

Especially that Bi Qingwen, at first glance, he is an eight-sided and exquisite person, although he is only a deacon of the Yangcheng branch in terms of identity, but he is very good at being a person, taking care of Xia Sheng along the way, and he can talk to other people in the town branch, and he seems to have friends all over the world.

From Maoling County to Yingchuan, it took only two days for everyone, and from Yingchuan to Luoyang, it took seven days.

This is still the situation when Xia Sheng is urging to keep hurrying.

And along the way, Xia Sheng also heard some very important things from Bi Qingwen.

For example, in another half a month, it will be a big day for the Qin family, and for example, the Tianxing Academy and the Imperial Academy are arguing about the venue of the upcoming Chenxi exam, in addition, two days ago, news just came from the border, this time the grassland people are menacing, after breaking through the Changyan Pass, and then the next city with lightning speed, successfully took the Ningwu Pass from the hands of the Jinguo people.

At this point, the "grass cutting defense line" laid by Emperor Gaozong in the western border pass has existed in name only, and only Jianmen Pass and Yumen Pass are struggling to support.

When the news came back, His Majesty was furious and directly punished the front-line general Xiang Yong and the general's nine clans.

This situation is very reminiscent of the Luoyang bloody case brewed by Emperor Taizu at the beginning of the founding of the Dajin Dynasty, and it was in the same autumn wind that Emperor Taizu ordered the killing of one of the "Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest", the regent Luoqiu Ten Clans.

Including his teachers, students, relatives and friends, none of them were spared.

Therefore, for a while, there was a bloody storm in the capital, and everyone who had old high-ranking officials with General Xiang was in danger.

Of course, these have nothing to do with Xia Sheng for the time being, what he cares more about is another thing that Bi Qingwen said to him.

It is rumored that five days ago, Zhao Chen, the ninth prince, returned to the Imperial Academy and ushered in a jubilant voice, because this means that in the upcoming Chenxi exam, the Imperial Palace finally has the hole card to compete with the Spring and Autumn Academy.

After learning this news, Xia Sheng finally understood why the prince's men had not shown up to hunt him down for a long time, it turned out that His Royal Highness King Ning had successfully escaped.

But to his surprise, five full days have passed since the Nine Emperors returned to Luoyang, why hasn't there been any movement?

Not to mention launching a counterattack against the crown prince, or going up to the saint to forget to return to Lin, no one even heard any disturbances in the entire Luoyang City.

Everything is as if nothing has happened.

In this regard, Ning Zheng believes that it may be because of the wrong timing.

Now that the border army of Dajin Xiling has suffered a heavy defeat, and it is about to lose the entire grass cutting defense line and the four border passes, His Majesty the Emperor is now in a state of anger, and His Royal Highness King Ruoning will report this matter again, which is likely to backfire.

If a party dispute breaks out in this way, it will lead to instability in the dynasty, and it will be a catastrophe for the Dajin Dynasty, which is now in the midst of external troubles.

Therefore, whether it is public or private, His Royal Highness King Ning can only swallow his anger and suffer this dumb loss for the time being.

can only say that the prince's life is really good!

And it was under such circumstances, facing the rainy sky, Xia Sheng and his party finally arrived outside Luoyang City.

stepped into the political center of the Dajin Dynasty, which was in turmoil with internal and external troubles. (End of this volume!)
