The palace is quiet, and the empress of the cold palace is acting as a demon

Chapter 489

Qin Wan changed horses day and night, and ran to the south at the fastest speed, and the first place she was going to was Yingcheng, Peijun.

"Luling, I made a big oolong!"

After Qin Wan arrived in Peijun, he met Luling at a tea house.Before Luling could sit down at the door, Qin Wan told him from beginning to end about how she mistook Xun Cheng and Xun Che for the reincarnation of Haotian and Ning Yi.

After hearing this, Lu Ling comforted Qin Wan and said, "The two sons of the Xun family indeed look very similar to Shen Jun and His Majesty Ning Emperor. It's not your fault, and I didn't recognize them at the time."

Qin Wan frowned and sighed helplessly: "Who would have thought that they only look alike because they are Ning Yi's cousins. But let's not talk about that, you have to help me save something more important than my life. "

After saying that, Qin Wan carefully took out a wooden box and handed it to Luling.

Lu Ling took the wooden box, opened it cautiously, and saw the Dongxia Jade Vase inside which was weighed with a silk cloth.

"The soul breath of Haotian and Ning Yi is preserved in this bottle. It is said that the soul breath will slowly recover in this jade bottle, and finally the souls of the two of them will be completely restored."

"Dongxia jade bottle... belonged to Emperor Fusang." Lu Ling recognized the identity and origin of the bottle at a glance.

"Luling, you are the person I trust the most in this world, please help me protect it, and I am going to Leizhou now."

When Lu Ling heard Qin Wan say this, his expression changed instantly: "Are you going to the front line?!"

Qin Wan didn't hide from him, and said directly: "The second boy of the Xun family insisted on joining the army, but now he is besieged in Qucheng. If I don't go, I'm afraid it will be too late."

Lu Ling: "I will accompany you."

Qin Wan shook her head: "Lu Ling, if you protect this bottle, you are holding my life."

Looking at Qin Wan's determined expression, Lu Ling knew that once she made up her mind, the nine cows would not be able to pull back, so he carefully closed the wooden box, nodded and promised, "Don't worry, I will protect it with my life. "

Qin Wan nodded gratefully to Lu Ling: "I can't waste any more time, I'm leaving now."

"You have just arrived in Peijun, it's getting late, you're leaving now?" Lu Lingwan stayed, "at least stay here overnight, and tomorrow I'll ask you to prepare a fast horse to take you out of the city."

Qin Wan shook his head: "We plan to leave Pei County tonight to feel Luoyi. The military situation is urgent, and I can't afford to delay."

Knowing that he couldn't persuade Qin Wan, Lu Ling took out three silver notes and a small box of gold and handed them to Qin Wan: "You can use it."

Looking at the banknote and the gold in the small box, Qin Wan was shocked and grateful: "Lu Ling, how can I repay the favor I owe you?"

Lu Ling smiled and said, "It's nothing, your safety is the greatest reward for me."

Qin Wan: "Thank you."

"Okay, since you want to rush to Luoyi in the dark, you have to start now." Lu Ling stood up, "Let's go, I'll see you off."

Qin Wan took the silver notes and gold that Luling had given her, and with Luling's farewell, hurriedly left Yingcheng and continued southward.

On the way, Qin Wan rode his horse and asked, "Lie Xian, did you reply to the letter you sent to Ji Yan?"

Lie Xie rode beside Qin Wan: "It is estimated that when we arrive in Luoyi, we should be able to receive a reply from Xishu. But Madam, do you think the King of Shu will send troops to help you?"

Qin Wan said without hesitation: "No matter when I speak, Ji Yan will help me, so Xishu will definitely send troops to help."

Lie Xie said worriedly: "But Hou Lu's rebel army is getting bigger and bigger. Even if the Xishu army sends troops, our chances of winning are not great."

Qin Wan said: "That's right, so our goal now is not to go head-to-head with Hou Lu's army, but to go to South Vietnam to find help."

Lie Xie was very surprised: "Nanyue?! The entire Yuedi army has been transferred to the front line to fight against the rebels. Ma'am, who are you looking for?"

Qin Wan took a deep breath and said, "Although the regular army has been mobilized, there are still more forces that have not been mobilized."

Lie Xie instantly understood: "Ma'am, are you talking about the Nanyue tribe?!"

Qin Wan nodded: "That's right."

Lie Xie: "But they never take orders from the imperial court, how can you persuade them to help you, Madam?"

Qin Wan: "I don't know, go and find a way first!"

Lie Xie thought that Qin Wan had already made up a complete plan, but she didn't expect that Qin Wan had no more plans at all. Seeing how anxious Qin Wan was, she asked, "Ma'am, you are so nervous, Master Xun, are you still right?" he……"

"No!" Qin Wan loudly denied, "I just think that kid is not bad, if he really died on the battlefield like this, I will feel uneasy!"

Lie Xie pouted, speeded up the horse, and followed Qin Wan.

After many days of long-distance travel, Qin Wan finally arrived at Gaozhou City in the South Vietnam region before the first month.

According to the information of Anyou Division, the Shitang tribe, the chief tribe of South Vietnam, settled here.

Qin Wan and Lie Xiong Pixing Daiyue came to Gaozhou City in a hurry. When they looked up, they saw the city defense buildings that were completely different from those in the northern cities. The huge city walls made of boulders and the towering archery towers made of rough wood seemed indestructible.

Although there are rebellions everywhere in the south, this place is as solid as gold. It is guarded by more than [-] families from the Shitang tribe and its subordinate tribes.Because of this, many refugees who were displaced by the war began to flock to Gaozhou City, begging the Shitang Department under the city wall to open the city gate to accept them to take refuge in the city.

Qin Wan had already joined the ranks of refugees at this time, looking at the tall gate tower.

At this moment, Lie Xian squeezed through the crowd and leaned into her ear, "Your Majesty, follow me."

Qin Wan followed Lie Xie around the crowd, and saw a man who had come out of the city to select young women from among the refugees to enter the Chu Pavilion.

Looking at the girls who were selected, the youngest grades were only eleven or twelve years old, and the older ones were only fourteen or five years old.Most of them will become the most ordinary singers and dancers in the Chu Pavilion, and the particularly outstanding and intelligent ones will be taken in by the Anyou Division for secret espionage training.

Lie Xian walked up to the man and whispered a few secret words in his whisper, and saw the man bowing his head respectfully to Lie Xian.Then arrange for Qin Wan to stand with the selected girls.

Qin Wan recalled the scene when she was sold to Luqiu Mansion by Ren Yazi.At that time, she only wanted to escape from Penglai Island, but she didn't expect to meet Xun Che and make such a big joke.

She looked around, and there were about seven girls selected. At this time, there were some couples in the crowd who sent girls who were less than ten years old. They cried and hoped that the men would also accept their daughters.Qin Wan glanced sideways at the little girl with ignorant eyes. Under the war, whether it is important to live or to be respected is actually not a difficult topic to choose.

In the end, the man rejected the girl because she was too young. The girl's mother was crying, but the people around her were not only unwilling to comfort her, but despised her for making noise.

Lie Xie walked to Qin Wan's side and said softly, "Your Majesty, do you still remember when we first met?"

Qin Wan nodded: "Well, I always remember."

Lie Cuisine: "For them, being sold can at least have a meal. If they are not sold, they may become someone else's ration in a few days."

Qin Wan lowered his gaze: "So we must hurry up and end this rebellion, and the Nanyue tribe is the key to victory."

At this time, the man from Chuguan in Gaozhou finally picked enough girls he was satisfied with, and he tied a hemp rope to each girl's wrist, including Qin Wan.Then he pulled the end of the hemp rope and brought the girls to the gate of the city. After giving the guards some silver taels, he was let into the city of Gaozhou.

In this way, Qin Wan followed the girls into the city, while Lie Xian found another way to sneak in secretly after dark.
