The wind was cold.

Snowflakes flew and swirled around, but disappeared in an instant.

When I came out of Kyoto in the Condensing Moon Country, the heavens and the earth were still covered in silver, and the further south I went, the more white I saw was gradually replaced by other deep and light colors.

Qingchen took Zhiyu alone, and once again separated from Xiao Yi, contrary to the place where he stayed.

"Childe, it's getting late, let's find a place to rest. Dressed in men's clothes, sitting on a horse with a long sword in his hand, he looked at Qingchen who was also dressed up next to him, and said so.

Leaving Ningyue Kyoto's Yiwang Mansion, Qingchen returned to his man's dress, although he changed his appearance, Qingjun's face shone with dazzling light as before, making people unable to open their eyes.

"After crossing this mountain, we will go to Nanjun, and we will travel overnight, and then have a good rest when we arrive in Nanjun. Qingchen said, the movement did not stop, and with a wave of the horsewhip, the horse ran forward with joy again.

Ji Yu couldn't, so he had to keep up.

The two of them traveled non-stop all the way, and finally arrived in Nanjun early the next morning, when it was just dawn. didn't alarm anyone, whether it was Hou or Zhao Yun, who was surnamed Hou, didn't know about the arrival of the two, so the two of them casually found an inn to stay, and after resting, they prepared enough dry food and continued to hurry.

"Childe, are we going directly to Southern Xinjiang?" asked as he followed Qingchen's side closely.

"No, let's go to the capital of the Heavenly Star Kingdom first. Qingchen said, "Now I only have one you by my side, and I must ensure that nothing goes wrong, so I have to go to see Mingyue first, she is the hub that connects Ningyue, Tianxing and Southern Xinjiang, and many things must be known through her." ”

Grip Yu nodded, didn't say anything more, and continued to hurry with Qingchen, heading towards the capital of the Heavenly Star Kingdom.

The capital of Tianxing Country has not changed in the slightest, if there is really anything abnormal, it is probably the end of the year, and it is time for the New Year, every household is immersed in the joy of the New Year, and everyone's face is full of happy smiles.

But such a smile has nothing to do with Qingchen, the excitement is someone else's, all she has is the worry about her distant husband and the eagerness to find out the truth behind this matter.

"Let's pick up the star building after a few tosses, and finally take root here, although this is just a ruined house, but it is also a place for us to settle down, and now it's about to be the New Year, why don't we go out and buy some salutes, and have a festive life?"

As soon as Qingchen walked into the courtyard, he heard Mingyue's voice coming, with joy and excitement, which was also a comfort in this foreign country.

"Of course, you follow me around and around, give up the comfort of Ningyue Kyoto for twenty years, and come to this foreign country, if you have to deprive you of this bit of freedom for the New Year, then what's the point?" Qingchen said, walking in unhurriedly, and then facing everyone, smiling.

"Landlord!"

"Childe!"

Hearing Qingchen's voice, he turned his head and saw Qingchen walking in with steps, everyone's faces showed a happy smile, and they greeted Qingchen in unison.

"Childe, why are you here?" Mingyue asked as she walked towards Qingchen.

"There's something to take care of, I won't be here for long, and I'm going to leave here after spending the year with you. Qingchen replied.

The brothers of the Star Picking Tower have left their homeland for her and left their hometown, she can't even deprive her of this last happiness, although Xiao Yi is now in a coma in bed, life and death are unknown, although her heart is still hanging high, but she can't let all the brothers in the Star Picking Tower follow her to grief and sorrow.

So, as anxious as she is, she wants to stay here and spend the year with her brothers.

"In these years, it is the first time that Childe has celebrated the New Year with us, but unfortunately, the owner of the Wind Mansion and the deputy owner of the building are not there, and the Lord of the Night Hall, the Dharma Protector of Tomorrow and the predecessors ......of Nankong are not there," someone in the crowd said.

When Qingchen heard this, a trace of apology flashed in his heart, indeed, after so many years, it was the first time to celebrate the New Year with the brothers of Xingxinglou, but there were so many fewer people, and these people were sent to various places to do things because of her.

"Okay, happy days, don't talk about this, you quickly send someone to buy some New Year's goods, the son is here, but you have to be more lively." Mingyue said, then turned around and walked to Qingchen's side, and spoke again, "I don't know Childe, where are you going after the New Year?"

"Southern Xinjiang. Qingchen didn't hide it, because she went to southern Xinjiang, and there were still many things that Mingyue needed to deal with, so she told the truth.

"Childe is going to Southern Xinjiang, but ...... that place" Mingyue heard this, her face changed instantly, and her eyes quickly gathered a strong worry.

"Needless to say, I have made up my mind, and I am here to inform you, not to consult with you. Qingchen said, "Okay, Mingyue, go and prepare for the New Year, this time I went to southern Xinjiang, there was a lot of luck, and I didn't know when I would be able to come back, so ...... You won't see me for a long time. ”

Mingyue wanted to say something, but was stopped by Qingchen's gaze, so she sighed and turned around to prepare things for the New Year with the others.

Tianxing Kingdom attaches great importance to the Lunar New Year, so the entire capital is filled with a festive atmosphere, which makes people involuntarily happy. The people who picked up the Star Tower were also very happy, except for Mingyue, because from beginning to end, when she knew that Qingchen would go to Southern Xinjiang next, she had been worried.

is also worried about Ji Yu, she was originally a lively and active person, but after following Qingchen for so long, a series of things overwhelmed her, she stayed by Qingchen's side, watching Qingchen step by step on the road of revenge, and finally for various reasons, to the current situation.

It's like a trapped beast, trapped in a valley, with no way out, only running in one direction, maybe there is a glimmer of hope. And Qingchen is now this trapped beast, her hope is in southern Xinjiang. Whether it's the truth of all these things, or Xiao Yi's antidote.

Time passed quietly, Cheng'an's four-year year-end banquet, just in the reunion with the people in the Star Picking Building, when the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, Mingyue received the news that Ningyue Kyoto came, Qingchen was packing up and preparing to go.

"Childe, something happened-" Mingyue's voice carried a hint of horror, which made Qingchen feel startled for no reason.

"What's the matter?" Qingchen's voice was a little cold, but if he listened carefully, he could still hear a tremor in his tone.

Over the years, enough has happened to her, and it has successively affected the people around her, and she really doesn't want to hear the words "something happened" anymore, because whenever this happens, it indicates that something is beyond her reach.

"A letter from Kyoto tomorrow. Mingyue put the note in her hand with both hands, looked at Qingchen, her heart was clenched, she didn't know how Qingchen would react when she saw the news on the letter.

Qingchen took the note from Mingyue's hand and looked at it at a glance, when her eyes fell on the last word, her pupils suddenly constricted, and she involuntarily crumpled the note into a ball, squeezing it tightly in the palm of her hand, and the bulging green tendons on the back of her hand showed her mood at the moment.

"Okay! Very good! Mu Qingjue, since you have to go against me, then don't blame me for being unkind!" Qingchen said two "good" words in a row, but her expression was full of hideousness, especially when Mu Qingjue's name was mentioned, there was an illusion that he would be broken into thousands of pieces.

"Childe, what's going on?" said Ji Yu, standing beside Qingchen, as he spoke.

"You don't need to ask, you just need to do what I instruct, you have already torn your face with Mu Qingjue, so there is no need to hide it. Qingchen said, and then whispered in Mingyue's ear, commanding.

Mingyue nodded in a little surprise, although she was a little puzzled, she still did what Qingchen told her, because she knew that no one could change what Qingchen was determined to do.

"Then Childe, we're not leaving today, are we?" asked Shoyu.

"The trip is postponed, I have more important things to do, since Mu Qingjue doesn't want to be this emperor, then I will fulfill him. Qingchen said, "I haven't settled accounts with him about the Lou family last time, but this time, he actually dared to fight Xiao Yi's idea, so let's settle the new hatred and old hatred together." ”

Grip Yu seemed to have a glimpse of something from Qingchen's words, just at this moment, as soon as Qingchen's hand was released, the note that she had crumpled fell to the ground, Grip Yu picked it up and looked at it, and immediately widened his eyes, his chest rose and fell, and he was dumbfounded.

The letter was sent tomorrow, and it explained the current situation in Kyoto of Ningyue Kingdom, when Qingchen and Feng Xiran sent Xiao Yi into the palace, within a few days, there were assassins in Ningyue Palace.

This assassin is none other than Xiao Ling and Gu Yanzhao, as well as Mu Qingjue's personal guard Tianquan, that is, the master who once accompanied Qingchen to Yancheng, and in addition, there is an unknown man in black.

With Feng Xiran's skills, he could only fight with the man in black, and the two fought from the gate of Longchen Palace to the periphery of the imperial city, leading away the first master of martial arts, and the rest of the things were easy to do, Tianquan and Gu Yanzhao dealt with Ming Ri and Zhao Xu respectively, leaving Xiao Ling to face some guards of the palace, if he entered a no-man's land, he would soon take Xiao Yi away from Longchen Palace.

When Feng Xiran got rid of the entanglement of the man in black and returned to Longchen Palace, he found that he had fallen into the enemy's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, and the man in black of unknown origin was just to help Xiao Ling take Xiao Yi away, and their fundamental goal was Xiao Yi.

Feng Xiran relied on his years of experience in the rivers and lakes, and finally found the direction and chased out, but was intercepted by the man in black, according to what Feng Xiran said, the martial arts of the man in black were actually above him, maybe, and the person who attacked Mu Qingchen in the Tianxing ** camp at that time was a person.

If there was no Tianquan's participation, maybe Xiao Ling would not be so easy to take Xiao Yi away, because tomorrow and Zhao Xu would be able to resist Gu Yanzhao for a while, maybe they could support it until Feng Xiran came back, but Mu Qingjue sent someone to get involved in this matter, since Mu Qingjue didn't want to be the emperor in peace, then don't blame her for being polite!
