After some careful consideration, Wu Yihan came up with some ideas.

One is that the apprentice will only be an aide to the Queen at first, and Huangfu Yan may not be able to get the Phantom within one or two years. The other is that Yu Leer wins, and Mo Hu immediately becomes the leader of the four tribes. It is not known what the future situation will be, but the immediate interests must be obtained

Hold it firmly.

Once I figured it out, I became close to Xiangxue again.

Quick messages from Jinning came one after another, Huangfu Yan ordered the return journey, the troops pulled away, and Quyang returned to peace.

As the newly appointed female official, Xiang Xue should have rushed to Jinning together.[

However, she asked for leave and postponed her appointment for three months on the grounds that her health had not yet recovered and her parents' death anniversary was approaching and she had to return to Dongling to worship in accordance with filial piety.

Huangfu Yan had no doubts about her presence and was about to agree. Then he thought about the news he had received a few days ago and asked, "How much recovery can you expect when you return to Nanzhao from Dongling?"

Xiang Xue pretended to think about it for a while, then replied: "About 70% to 80%."

"Just in time, you go to Anping County from Tai Town and check some things for me."

"Your Majesty, just ask."

"Prince Lewu of Anping County has been a little close to the west recently. Please go check it out for me."

"yes."

On the third day of July, in the hot summer, Xiang Xue set out for Dongling under the pretext of "returning to his hometown to pay homage to his parents."

On the twelfth day of the seventh month, we went up the Qiao River to Mugu City, exchanged for fast horses, and crossed the border into Dongling.

July 16th, outside the capital.

The stone wall is more than three feet high and forms a circle. It is endless and magnificent.

On the high wall, there are armored soldiers with cold faces. They change shifts every two hours, no matter the day or night. Their spears are sharp and sharp until they are wiped, and they don't know how much blood they drink.

The capital, the heart of Dongling Kingdom.

Outside the city, there are 80,000 Fuhu Camp, 40,000 Iron Roar Camp, and 20,000 City Defense Battalion stationed in the nearby counties. The siege alone requires as many as 140,000 people. Holding the Tiger Talisman, one can go to Beijing to rescue the enemy in one night.

In addition, there are 13,000 patrol guards in the outer city and another 20,000 imperial guards in the inner city.

Xiangxue was galloping all the way, dust was flying on the official road and yellow smoke was billowing. Looking up, the tall and majestic boulder wall was clearly visible.

It’s been six years, more than six years since I left Beijing.

Born here, raised here.

It's a pity that whether it's the poor, stupid child from the beginning, or the lonely soul that passed through the rebirth, what's left in the capital is nothing but indifference, ruthlessness, fighting, contempt, and use...[

The city gate has three levels, with side gates more than ten feet high on both sides for people to walk. Once you enter the eight-foot-long main gate in the middle, those who pass through are either rich or noble.

Traffickers and pawns, knights and knights of all kinds.

Xiang Xue dismounted and followed an old woman carrying a load.

There were four officers and soldiers on the outside and six on the inside responsible for the inspection, and there were more than ten people standing at the city gate.

Watching with eager eyes.

"Hey, why is it so slow today?" A fruit farmer was loading a cart with fresh seasonal fruits. He took off his sweat towel and wiped his head, looked up at the sky, and said anxiously: "Look at the sky, it's probably three o'clock in the morning.

, the city gate is about to close. What a good thing!"

"Stop yelling, you're not a local, are you?" A farmer from behind stuck his head out and caught the conversation.

"Yes, I'm coming from Qingzhou. It's been windy and sunny recently. I happened to plant several acres of fruit trees that are ripe. I want to bring them to the capital, hoping to get a good price! No, hurry up and go slowly.

I didn’t rest all night, just hoping to get to the city when the fruits are fresh and in good condition so that I can get up early and set up a stall tomorrow morning!”

"In the past two months, the inspection has been strict!" Another farmer picking corns also said: "I heard that the barbarians in the north suffered a disaster this winter, and they are trying to attack us in Dongling again. This kind of inspection is
