The people of the Southern Continent, who were far away across the ocean, actually formed an alliance with the Wei State, and took advantage of this time to stab the Lan State in the back. This astonishing news was like a bolt from the blue, and the guards who had just been gearing up were stunned!

The first to react was Boss An: "Nanlu Twin Cities, which one is here?"

"Two. Old Steward Tao laughed miserably, "I just got the news." As he spoke, he took out a palm-sized gray bone ring and spread it out on his palm to show everyone.

The iron guards came around, and Bai Ye, who was blocked from the periphery, stretched his neck and stared at his eyes, and said, "The son and mother spirit rhino core?"

The mist shrouded the bone nucleus, faintly revealing a dozen red dots. The guards looked up at Tao Lao suspiciously.

The old man nodded: "Almost." We use it for thousands of miles to communicate. These red dots are secret words, which translate to the meaning: Shuangcheng occupies Haizhou, do not return. ”

The two cities of the Southern Continent have joined forces! Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Kashiraya and Ochichi had almost no idea about the so-called Nanriku, and they didn't understand why the elders reacted so much. He gently pulled Uncle Suo away and asked secretly, "Nanlu Shuangcheng, what's the situation?"

Suo Qi replied casually with a sad face: "One city lord is a Lan country nobleman who used to pan for gold in the early years, and the other city lord is also his own family who fled to the past. The royal family of the Zhilan Kingdom has never fought against the branch that is now in charge. ”

"I've been making money over there for decades, so why can't I let go of my past? ”

Bai Ye listened to it and suddenly felt a little funny. The exiled royal bloodline crossed the continent to avoid pursuit. This sounds familiar......

At the same time as they asked Uncle Suo, the marshal had already followed Tao Lao's words and continued to announce the news: "...... Haizhou's six-hundred-mile expedited battle report has been transmitted to the camp one after another. Among the armies that landed from Haizhou, the banners of the Southern Continent trading city-state and the twin cities appeared, respectively, and the combat strength was mainly the indigenous tribes of the Southern Continent. ”

The marshal paused and said slowly: "We know too little about them, and the southern coast is defenseless, and the losses are great. Longyou City, the capital of Haizhou, has been captured. The people of Nanlu are constantly landing on big ships, and the edge is directed at Quanzhou. ”

Uncle Hu rubbed his nose and asked, "Where is our sailor?"

The marshal replied in a deep voice: "The main force is still on the periphery of Pirate Island. Over the years, there has been no fighting, just a confrontation. It's too much energy. ”

The Great Elder is old, but his ears are not bad. After hearing the big handsome's answer, he sneered: "Isn't this worth it! I can't wipe my ass clean, and I can rely on others?"

None of the guards dared to answer. Bai Ye and Yi Chi didn't understand. There must be something going on here, but the little brothers don't know.

It's just that isn't Pirate Island also one of the sources of spirit stones? Those guano accumulations rich in spiritual power were brought from Pirate Island by the Jiang family's caravans. Could it be that this pirate island has been under siege by the Dalan Sailor all these years?

Bai Ye looked at Yi Chi.

Brothers are of the same heart, Xiao Yi knows what he is wondering about. But he shook his head slightly, this was not a good time to ask casually.

But he still scratched his right arm uncontrollably. The place where the Iron Calyx Spirit Flower had been bitten before was already fine. Now when I think of Pirate Island, it seems to start itching again.

The big marshal watched several elders return to their rooms, didn't say anything, turned their heads and continued to decorate.

"This time, the Wei Kingdom came prepared, and even the Southern Continent fell to them, which I didn't expect. The Chamber of Commerce has always had a firm grip on trade with the Southern Continent. However, because of the special situation of the Southern Continent, the trading city-state is only open to the outside world, and the slave tribes in the interior are always wrapped in fog, and it is too difficult for the Jiang family to find out the thoughts and movements of the people in the Southern Continent. ”

Old Steward Tao lowered his head in panic, and bowed his hand again and again: "It's our negligence, negligence......"

The old man kept repeating the words, but nothing else could be said again.

Regardless of whether they were prepared or unprepared, the northern and southern fronts were attacked by surprise and suffered considerable losses. Dalan is really showing signs of the country's demise this time.

Da Shuai's face was resolute, but his tone was relaxed. He waved his hand to the old steward and comforted: "There is Jiang Qian in the south, I am relieved." All of you here, the top priority is to deal with the affairs of Fangyi. Let's divide our labor. As he spoke, he nodded lightly and walked towards the entrance of the cave.

Everyone had complicated thoughts, and they were just about to leave the cave with the big handsome, but the first few people suddenly stopped their steps, and the few people behind were defenseless and crowded together.

The handsome man stood quietly inside the entrance of the cave. Opposite him was Jiang Jinglan.

The eldest lady of the Jiang family somehow struggled to run and blocked the door. In front of everyone, he was stunned and said, "My name is Jiang Jinglan." Let me ask you something. ”

The big handsome should have never seen Jiang Jinglan, but everyone panicked. Tao Lao desperately squeezed over, and he was about to reach out and drag Xiaolan away.

The big handsome raised his hand and froze the embarrassed crowd.

"I know you. With that, he looked at the eldest lady quietly. His eyes seemed to be full of complicated feelings.

Jiang Jinglan looked at Da Shuai's eyes, her pretty face turned red, and her breathing began to become short.

She gritted her teeth, pulled a scroll from her bosom, and unfolded it.

The yellowed silk surface, which was no more than eight inches wide and only one and a half feet long, had a few knife-like lines, vividly outlining the seated portrait of a young warrior, like Bai Lingyu, but the eyebrows were lighter.

Miss Jiang said in a trembling voice: "It's been almost a year since I left home to look for you. I must ask you these words. ”

"Why has my mother always treasured your portrait? Why has she been sullen at home for so many years? Have you had a leg with her? Have you cuckolded my father? Am I your daughter!"

......

......

"I'm not. I didn't. Don't think about it. ”

......

The guards who had nowhere to hide opened their eyes. For the first time in his life, he saw the face of the Eastern Continent God of War blushing!

"No! You have to make it clear! Don't try to hide anymore! You can't say that this is a portrait of your son, right?"

Suo Qi, who was outspoken, couldn't hold back any longer, and shouted, "What are you talking about." He's your father's kowtow brother. Besides, what kind of person is your father? What kind of person is your mother? You are a little girl, and you are suspicious. ”

The big handsome suddenly smiled. The atmosphere in the cave became even more eerie. Under the gaze of everyone, he sighed lightly and said to Xiaolan, "Don't worry. I also have one of these paintings in my house, and there are no things in it that you think. After arriving in the imperial capital, you go to the Grand Marshal's Mansion. When I see your aunt, I will know. ”

"What is the Great Marshal's Mansion? I, how can I have any aunt?"

Da Shuai looked around and smiled: "These are my own family members, I might as well tell you." Your mother is my own sister. ”

The old steward Tao quickly took a few steps forward, pulled the stunned Jiang Jinglan, squeezed away the dumb iron guard, pushed away the stunned Bai Ye and Yi Chi, and walked to the deepest part of the cave and pressed her into a chair. Squatted down and said softly: "The head of the family has always known that you pay too much attention to Dashuai, and we always want to stop it." I really didn't expect it to be because of this painting. I didn't expect you to have this kind of misunderstanding about this scroll. ”

"How so...... Da Shuai is the son of the main room who was born in the imperial capital. His father was stationed on the front line all year round...... They became a little family over there, and gave birth to your mother......"

Jiang Jinglan was still stunned when he first sat down, and after listening to Tao Lao's words, he suddenly shouted: "It's not right." No, no, no! You liar! How could my mother be born to a little wife! Dead old man, you are a fool!"

"Girl, I've seen this painting decades ago. Take a closer look. What markings are on the cuffs. ”

"That's the pattern? What mark? How do I recognize it?" ”

"Silly girl, that's the mark of the Dalan Water Army. Dashuai's father has always been on the West Bank's guard. You've been studying Dashuai for so many years, did he serve in the Navy one day?"

Jiang Jinglan unfolded the scroll in a daze, and then gently rolled it up, like this several times, and finally collapsed in the chair.

"Well, this painting is ...... My grandfather?"

"Exactly. The one who answered the words was the handsome man who came over.

Jiang Jinglan stared at the eyes full of tears, looked at the middle-aged man with a complicated expression, lowered his head and muttered to himself: "Even if my mother is ...... Born in the side room, my father is also married to Ming Media. Why has no one ever mentioned my mother's origins? Besides, my mother's surname is not white!"

Tao Lao patted her head lightly, and said lovingly: "Silly child, how can the Jiangbai family marry openly?"

Jiang Jinglan was shocked, and suddenly realized.

The handsome Bai Changqi is a close branch of the bloodline of today's saint, and he is also a cousin of the White Emperor in terms of generation.

Since the Jiang family was loyal to Dalan hundreds of years ago, the ancestors vowed never to set foot in the political arena and never marry the emperor.

Even if the current saint, the marshal and his father were in the army back then, the Jiang family would never dare to cross that dangerous red line.

Tao Lao slowly stood up on his knees, and persuaded her while beating his legs: "I can promise you this old bone." Your father was raised by me since I was a child. She and your mother are stronger than gold. ”

Jiang Jinglan was already in turmoil at this time.

My parents hadn't spoken in years, and they didn't even live together.

She didn't know what was going on between her father and mother. But a few years ago, I stumbled upon my mother who treasured this portrait of a strange man. She stole it with a whim. The mother searched anxiously for a long time, and after searching to no avail, she shed tears all night.

Unexpectedly, the truth turned out to be like this. But why, love more than Jin Jian's parents, turned out to be what they are now.

According to Tao Lao, the combination of father and mother back then should have been under much pressure and risk. Even now when I think about it, I feel terrified. Once there is a slight carelessness, it will be tantamount to a catastrophe for the two humerus families of Dalan Kingdom.

But my mother still resolutely and resolutely, even incognito, to be with my father.

Jiang Jinglan couldn't help but be stupid when she thought of this......

The cave suddenly fell silent, and the whole environment seemed to be a little colder.

Bai Changqi was stunned for a moment, and then followed the strange gaze of the iron guards, and slowly turned his head to look at the entrance of the cave.

Just like Jiang Jinglan blocked the door just now. Another woman quietly appeared at the entrance of the cave, blocking the crowd inside.

The coarse cloth clothes could not hide the dignified and graceful figure, and the beautiful face had an expression that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

The middle-aged beauty appeared silently at the entrance of the cave, staring at it deadly, handsome and white.

"Ah Ci. You...... Are you alright......"
