That night, Ling Ye and the three of them avoided the patrolling Imperial Army, walked east along the river bank, found a place where the river was a little turbulent, cut down a tree and cut off its branches as driftwood, and took advantage of the dead of night to carry this piece of driftwood into the water and quietly cross the river.

The night was a little hazy that night, and a slanting moon hung lazily in the east, and the faint light that illuminated it could not even illuminate the surface of the river. Although the Imperial Army continued to patrol back and forth, no one noticed that the target they were looking for had quietly crossed the river with a piece of driftwood.

Although the river was a little turbulent, although the river was very wide, and the three of them were not very good at swimming, with the buoyancy of driftwood and the encouragement of each other along the way, they all crossed this section of the river that was ten miles wide without danger.

On the other side of the river is the realm of the legendary saint, the land of peace and tranquility - the Holy Capital!

When there were only two feet left on the other side, Xiao Yao was the first to say excitedly: "It's finally here! We are finally going to get rid of Lan Tai's pursuit and reach a place that only existed in legends and stories before!"

Midnight remained calm. He had been watching the movement on the other side. The spring on the other side not only has flowers, grass, and tall trees, but also the unknown that is not very clear in the dark night.

Hearing Xiao Yao's excited words, he said quietly, "Don't be too happy. After all, we are outsiders, and we are people from the Empire, and the Holy Capital may not accept us so easily. ”

Que Wan'er said: "The people of the Holy Capital are also people, I think I can always tell the difference, and I don't have to worry too much." ”

Ling Ye was silent for a while, sighed and said, "I think, now I need you two girls who are good at words, to explain it well." ”

The two girls were just stunned, and a large group of people had quietly flashed out of the shadows of the flowers and trees on the other side, each holding a bow and arrow in their hands, aimed at the three people who were still swimming in the river with driftwood. The moonlight hanging diagonally in the east shone down from the side, and all three of them could clearly see that the large group of people were soldiers in armor, and the arrows of their bows and arrows glittered in the moonlight.

A slender and heroic figure appeared behind the group of soldiers, and a crisp female voice shouted, "Who's coming?

Although Ling Ye joked that he wanted the two girls to explain with their verbal ability, but when it really came to this time, he naturally wouldn't really want the two girls to speak separately and keep silent. He immediately replied: "We escaped from the imperial capital, my name is Ling Ye, this is Que Wan'er, this is her personal maid Xiaoyao." ”

The woman on the shore snorted: "I've never heard of it!" Say, you good emperors don't stay, what do you want to do when you sneak across the Moon River in the middle of the night?"

Ling Ye replied, "I want to escape the pursuit." We were hunted down by the Imperial Prince Lan Tai, and the Empire is no longer suitable for us to settle down, so I heard that the Holy Capital is peaceful and peaceful, so I want to come here to settle down. ”

The woman snorted again: "Lan Tai, the prince of the empire, hmph, even so, the Holy Capital is not a place for you to take refuge! This is a sacred and peaceful land, and we don't want to be disturbed by the footsteps of unknown outsiders! Listen, turn around immediately, where did you come from, and where did you go back! Otherwise, I will order the arrows to be released!"

None of the three wanted to really turn around and go back. Que Wan'er said loudly: "This sister is still a younger sister, we have gone through a lot of hardships from the imperial capital, just to find a place to live. Although the empire is large, it is already the world of Lantai, and it is no longer suitable for us to survive. If you can get us ashore, we can provide you with a lot of information about the empire and this Lantai, which will be very useful to the Holy Capital!"

The woman seemed to hesitate for a moment, and then said, "That's not going to work! Who knows if what you say is true or false? We can't get over it, and we can't verify the truth!"

Seeing that this woman was still unmoved, Xiao Yao was anxious, and interjected: "This sister, even if this is the case, you let us go ashore first, okay? You are also a woman, you know, there will be a few days in every month when we can't touch cold water...... Now that we've been soaking in the river for so long, maybe our stomach will hurt next time!"

Que Wan'er followed the conversation and said: "Yes! If you don't worry about us, you can tie our hands, blindfold us and take us away, and we promise not to resist for no reason!"

The woman seemed stunned for a moment before she said, "Then go ashore first, but I warn you first, if you want to act rashly, we are sure to shoot all three of you into hedgehogs!"

Although she didn't speak well, Ling Ye knew in her heart that this was the place where the two countries met, and this woman, as a border officer, was responsible for guarding the country, so she naturally couldn't trust people from the empire casually. She is responsible for this, and she can't be blamed.

The three of them slowly disembarked under the watchful eye of the Holy Capital's army. The Holy Capital army was still holding bows and arrows at the three men, and the woman walked slowly and looked at them all in the moonlight. Similarly, the three of them also took advantage of the moonlight to take a closer look at the woman. Although she could not see it very clearly in the moonlight, the woman's face still looked quite beautiful in the moonlight, and her dress was well-cut, holding a long red tasseled spear in her hand, and a long white hat hanging from her helmet, which looked quite heroic.

The woman looked at them carefully, and then said, "Tie all three of them with their hands, blindfold them and take them away!" Team A and B will continue to stay and watch this section of the riverbank, and the rest of them will escort these three people back with me!"

The soldiers of the Holy Capital agreed in unison. The woman pointed to one of the soldiers and said, "Go, tell my maid to find out my two sets of clean clothes, prepare hot water, and change them both!"

The soldier answered. The woman waved her hand, and the soldiers came up and tied the hands of the three behind their backs, and put black cloth bags on their heads, and then escorted the three men slowly.

The three of them knew that no one could trust anyone from the enemy country casually, and there was nothing deliberately offensive about this woman's approach, so they were all quite obedient and let them lead them forward.

Anyway, this is already the land of the Holy Capital, and unless Lan Tai starts a big war, otherwise, no matter how long the whip of the empire is, it will not be possible to swing it here. And listening to the tone of this female officer, she is not an unreasonable person, and it is still very possible to move her.

The Holy Capital, the legendary peaceful and tranquil country, may be smiling at the trio!
