Xiaoxi said he wanted to go north, but did not tell where. Jiang Lan didn't have a map of this world, and had no concept at all. At first, he just wanted to leave quickly, so he just ran along the road.

The goal is not clear, and the road is not known, that is, the state of walking when there is a road, Jiang Lan thought, no matter what, if you meet someone first and then talk about it, you will always find a way to the north.

After running like this for a long time, Jiang Lan was so tired that she couldn't keep her eyes open, and the city gate appeared in the distance. Jiang Lan stopped his horse and looked into the distance. It was actually Ning Cheng. He remembered that he had been to this city a year ago, and he had left a bad impression on her.

It seemed that Ningcheng was a relatively close city to their home. Jiang Lan didn't have the strength to care about the city's impression of him, and he was stumped for a long time. He was very nervous after being attacked last night, and he hardly slept later, but closing his eyes a little was even more nightmare. Hungry, although almost no water has entered since last night.

Jiang Lan was dizzy, so he found an inn, gave the horse to Xiao Er, and asked for an ordinary guest room on the second floor. He fell on the bed and fell asleep without even taking off his hat.

When she opened her eyes and woke up, it was already the next morning.

When she opened her eyes and saw the strange curtain above her head, she suddenly realized that she had traveled far away from home, and that she might be alone in the future.

Jiang Lan threw away the melancholy in his heart, then got up, asked Xiao Er for hot water, untied the cloth strip on his face and scrubbed a little, and then wrapped it around again.

She took her hat and walked downstairs to the hall for breakfast. Originally, this can be solved in the room, but if she doesn't have more contact with this world, where will the information about the antidote come from? Eyes in the dark won't solve any problems, it will only make her without a target like a headless fly. When it comes to listening to the gossip, there is nothing better than an inn canteen.

Since it was morning, there were not many people in the hall, and it was sparse.

She chose to sit in a corner and asked for a bowl of gruel, two steamed buns, and a side dish. She quietly broke the steamed buns to her mouth, and occasionally drank a mouthful of porridge, but she pricked up her ears and listened carefully to the corner.

There were two people sitting next to each other, an old man and a young man, chatting with each other, the younger one said, "Alas, since the third prince invited him to Xiangcheng, this Ningcheng has been very boring."

"What's boring? I think Ning Cheng lives up to its name now, and is much more peaceful." The old objected.

"What's good about An Ning, nothing major can happen, it's really boring, it used to be so lively." The young man snorted.

"It's so lively, someone dies every day, or someone's child is gone, someone's wife runs away with someone again, it's embarrassing." The old man scolded.

"It's not your wife or your baby, what are you worried about?" The young man laughed at him, then lowered his head and winked and said softly, "You said, are those missing children really related to the Third Prince?"

"That's what you can say, don't want to live anymore?" The old man looked up and looked around, "Who knows if his spies are here or not."

"Didn't he leave?" The young man scorned.

"It's not that I won't come back. This is someone's fief. I heard that this time I went to defend the southern border in order to fight the southern barbarians." The old man said again.

"Isn't it already a truce? Besides, isn't there General Zhennan guarding the southern border? Why do you want him to go again?" The young man wondered.

"Who knows, didn't it mean that General Zhennan angered the emperor and was transferred back to guard the royal tomb?" The old man shook his head, "What's the matter? Back then, we Ningcheng, Yecheng and Weicheng were combined into one. In order to fight against the invasion of Zunguo for the great Jincheng, how heroic the King of Jin was in those days, the people of Jincheng are peaceful and the scenery is infinite, and now, hey, it is unbearable to look back."

"Come on, you, it's all decades ago, and it's even said that Zun Guo has been missing for 20 years. Hurry up and leave, and come here again, and you will be annoying." The young man became impatient. , urging people to get up and leave.

Jiang Lan was listening. It turned out that the annoying prince was no longer here. No wonder he rarely saw people walking around in black and red official uniforms when he entered the city.

Jiang Lan specifically asked Wen Daolin after he went back last time. The third prince, Sima Lian, is the brother of a mother-in-law of the current sage boss Ma Jin (qin). It is said that the two have a good relationship since childhood, so they have Sima Jin's trust. At that time, there were still some princes in the Sima family, but after the crown prince Sima Jin was enthroned, they died one after another. When it comes to the fief, it has been many years.

His fief was in the west of the Celestial Dynasty. Although it was not as prosperous as the capital, it could be considered prosperous compared to the mountains and mountains in the southern border, especially the Dajin City area, which could be said to be prosperous. Ningcheng, Yecheng and Weicheng, the three cities have a finished zigzag pattern, collectively known as Dajincheng, which guards each other and is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Decades ago, it was the fief of the king of Jin at that time. Zun Guo was fighting against the Celestial Dynasty at that time, and this was the first stop. It can be said that this is the gateway to the west of the Celestial Dynasty. It can be seen that this is probably the city that was relatively close to Tianmen at that time. No wonder Wen Daolin's master chose to stay here. Decades have passed, and King Jin is long gone. After Sima Jin came to power, this was the fief of King Ning Sima Lian.

They're all bad guys, or they can kill their brothers silently? Jiang Lan thought, this world is too chaotic, and the affairs of the court are not something that she should be concerned about by ordinary people, but it is better to do what she should do. She was about to finish her porridge and leave, when two burly men in black clothes and swords walked in at the door, and they looked like martial artists.

Jiang Lan didn't dare to move when he saw the black clothes, and sat there slowly breaking the steamed buns to eat.

The two of them glanced around for a week and didn't care when they paused on Jiang Lan's hat, and even sat in the corner on her side.

The two asked for a large amount of steamed buns and porridge, and ate them for a while. Jiang Lan glanced at them secretly, and saw that although they were dressed in black, they didn't have any murderous aura.

The two of them ate almost, took a breath and stopped. One of them said, "I can't believe that the dignified martial arts alliance leader is actually a spy of Nanban, and everyone looked away."

"That's right, looking at him as a talented young hero, it's really unbelievable." Another person said.

"But I don't always believe that Xiaomeng has a chivalrous heart and often draws his sword to help when he sees injustice. How could it be possible to harm the people of the Celestial Dynasty." The first person shook his head.

"That's not necessarily the case. Maybe it's all a joke. Besides, isn't this time the person who received his favor rose up to expose it?" Another person disagreed.

"Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan, now even his confidantes have turned against each other, people can't help but believe it." The first person sighed.

"Anyway, the master told us to rush to Xiangcheng. If Xiao Yan is really a spy, we don't need to be polite. If not, we will give him justice. Let's go."

The two stopped talking, picked up the saber, got up and left the inn.
