"Go in person?"

Ji Jiashu was stunned when he heard this, and reacted after a moment, "You mean... fake?"

Let Ying Baoyue lead her men away from Afang Palace under the pretext of leading the army in person. After leaving Former Qin, where exactly she went, the scope of manipulation becomes much wider.

"Yes."

Murong Feilan laughed, "The King of Dongwu, Zhao Muren, has already led the army in person and is currently staying at the Evernight Great Wall. With this precedent, the civil and military officials cannot say anything."

Given the situation at the Eternal Night Great Wall, it was only natural for Ying Baoyue to go there to inspect it.

"As for the domestic situation, the Imperial Master will supervise the country first," Murong Feilan said, "Don't follow the king out of the city openly, but meet up with him in private. After sending Baoyue to Zhongtang, come back immediately."

"I understand," Ji Jiashu nodded, his expression solemn, "Let's do it this way."

"But what should we do when we go to war?"

Since he couldn't follow Ying Baoyue openly, who would escort Ying Baoyue when he left the city?

Ji Jiashu and Murong Feilan stood face to face in silence.

Both of them had a candidate in mind, but that candidate had disappeared.

"I'll go find Gui Chen," Ji Jiashu sighed and walked to the door of the study.

As soon as he opened the door, a dark figure was standing outside.

Seeing this figure, Murong Feilan and Ji Jiashu both showed shocked expressions.

"You are……"

……

……

June, mid-Tang.

The sound of a carriage rumbled by, Ji Jiashu lifted the curtain and looked at the scene outside filled with birds singing and flowers blooming, and he couldn't help but admire it in his heart.

After wandering in the north for nearly half a year, he didn't know how long it had been since he had seen such vibrant and beautiful scenery.

The scenery outside the window is completely far away from the bleakness of the north and the dryness of the desert. It is gentle and gorgeous, with the prosperity of the Jiangnan water town.

Just breathing in the moist and fragrant air, my body seemed to relax.

If it weren't for the atmosphere in the carriage, this would have been a pretty relaxing trip.

Ji Jiashu lowered the car curtain and turned around with a headache.

The climate in the middle Tang Dynasty was indeed very warm, and the interior of the carriage they were sitting in was also very luxurious. However, the temperature inside the carriage was very cold, in stark contrast to the warmth outside the carriage.

It all started with a man sitting in the carriage.

They had boarded this carriage when they entered the territory of Zhong Tang, and there were five people in it at this time. Ying Baoyue was lying on a fixed bed in the carriage and was sleeping, while Yao, a female official, was sitting beside the couch to take care of her, and Murong Feilan was sitting on the other side of the bed reading a book.

And at the foot of the bed, sat a man in green clothes with long flowing hair.

This person is the source of the cold air flow in the car.

The young man sat cross-legged at the end of Ying Baoyue's bed, with his eyes closed and in meditation, motionless, like a statue.

However, His terrifying presence makes it impossible to regard Him as just a statue.

It's been three days.

During the year that Ji Jiashu traveled around the country with Ying Baoyue and others, he had taken many carriage rides, but he had never experienced such a quiet and depressing journey.

But we can’t blame the other people in the car for not daring to speak.

After all, not everyone has the opportunity to live in the same room with the Azure Dragon God.

Ji Jiashu carefully lowered the curtain, walked around to the other side of the bed and sat down, checking Ying Baoyue's face. Ying Baoyue was sleeping very soundly, as if he wanted to get enough sleep that he hadn't gotten in the past year.

Ji Jiashu looked at her and felt both sad and comforted.

Three days ago, after discussing with Murong Feilan the details of sending Ying Baoyue to Zhong Tang, Murong Feilan pulled the corner of his clothes from Ying Baoyue's hand, and Ying Baoyue woke up as expected.

Ji Jiashu originally thought that Ying Baoyue would resist going to Zhong Tang, but he didn't expect that Ying Baoyue seemed to have figured something out and obediently followed Murong Feilan's arrangements.

In the end, everything went smoothly according to their plan. Ying Baoyue, under the pretext of personally leading the army, led his troops to inspect the situation at the Evernight Great Wall, and left Guiyang City with part of the Guijia Army and the Mujia Army.

Thirty miles after leaving Guiyang, the troops were met by Mu Youguichen, while he and Murong Feilan took Ying Baoyue and the female official Yao and left along a small path.

After they entered the territory of Zhong Tang, everything became smoother.

Basically, every time they arrived in a county, they would meet people who came to greet them in advance.

"Are you a guest from Former Qin? I am a retainer of the magistrate of Songyang County. My master asked me to wait for you here."

"Are you a guest from Former Qin? I am the assistant minister of Huaiyang County. My master asked me to wait for the distant guest here."

"Are you the distinguished guests from Former Qin? I am the Yellow Gate Assistant Minister of the Yuyang Palace. My master asked me to welcome you here."

……

Whether it was food, lodging or carriages, everything along the way was arranged in an orderly manner in advance, to the point of being so foresighted that Ji Jiashu felt terrified.

He asked Murong Feilan whether he had informed Zhong Tang of their whereabouts in advance, but Murong Feilan just shook his head.

"I did send a letter saying we were going, but the specific route should have been figured out by Song Zhai himself."

  Is it possible to make such a good arrangement based on speculation alone?

Are there really such smart people in this world?

Ji Jiashu had never dealt with Song Zhai before, and at most he had only seen him from a distance at a banquet. The closer he got to Zhong Tang, the more curious he became about this man who was only level seven but was known as one of the six princes of the Warring States Period.

In short, because Song Zhai had great connections, they basically did not encounter any difficulties along the way.

Ying Baoyue has been feeling weak and drowsy since entering Zhong Tang. The carriage arranged by Song Zhai can run fast without any bumps. With the help of the people arranged by Song Zhai, they have been traveling on the official road unimpeded, constantly changing horses at the Yantu Post Station, and they will reach the capital of Zhong Tang tomorrow.

Everything went smoothly except...

This person exists.

Ji Jiashu glanced cautiously at "Li Ji" who was sitting at the foot of the bed.

The joining of this member was the only surprise on their journey.

Three days ago, when he opened the door of his study, he found Li Ji standing right next to the door.

No, it should be said that it is the Azure Dragon God who looks like Li Ji.

Just standing at the door quietly.

No one knew when He came or how long He stood there.

After learning from Ying Baoyue what happened to Li Ji, this was the first time that Ji Jiashu had come face to face with him. They met in silence, and if his realm was not high enough, Ji Jiashu felt that he would be frightened to the point of sitting on the ground.

"Zhao... Li... Qing..."

Ji Jiashu's mouth twitched several times, and he didn't know how to address this person.

The man in blue glanced at him calmly and said, "If you are not used to it, just call me as you used to."

His voice was exactly the same as Li Jishi's, but it was completely cold and didn't sound like a living being.

Ji Jiashu got goose bumps on his back. He stared blankly at the other person as he walked past him and all the way to Ying Baoyue's bed. Only then did he react slowly.

"Wait, what are you going to do?"

"You're going to send her to Zhong Tang, right?"

The man in blue turned around and said expressionlessly, "I'll go too."
