"The Lord is finally back?"

"Where has he gone again?"

"He went to the deserted garden of the Nantianyuan, and then to the Huxin Jingyuan where the Empress Dowager was in seclusion."

"What about now?"

"He stayed in the quiet courtyard of Huxin and couldn't come out."

"What does it mean if you don't come out?"

"It's like being in seclusion, but not like it."

...

Another cold winter is coming, but this cold winter is more difficult for the court officials in Jiankang City than ever before.

Xiao Yan quietly left Jiankang City not long ago and disappeared from their sight. This time he finally returned to Jiankang, but did not return to the palace to handle political affairs. Instead, he quietly went to several places in Jiankang City, and then stayed in the quiet courtyard of Huxin where the Empress Dowager was imprisoning himself and kept her door closed.

It would be fine if it only took a short time to adjust one's mood, but as the subsequent oral orders continued to spread, as the visiting officials left one by one, all the officials in Jiankang City began to recognize a fact.

Just like He Xiuxing was imprisoned in a deserted garden, Xiao Yan was imprisoned in a quiet courtyard in Huxin.

"Military affairs are all dispatched by General Wei Rui..."

On the road outside the Jingyuan in Huxin, several important figures in the court all looked bleak.

It is naturally no problem to let Wei Rui take charge of military affairs, but the key is, where is Wei Rui now?

...

The northern part of the Southern Dynasties and the southern part of the Northern Wei Dynasty, the border between the two dynasties was originally the most desolate and the most closed place, but at this time, it became the center of the gathering of news. These generals on the border learned the major events that happened to the two dynasties as soon as possible.

In a fortress on the border of the Southern Dynasties, two generals slowly walked up the high slope. They stepped on the frosty and frosty dry grass, leaving two neat rows of footprints.

Walking ahead was Cao Jingzong, the commander of the Mingwei Border Army. After Wei Rui left, the generals of the border army also changed several times. Cao Jingzong, who was originally located in the Mingwei Border Army, also experienced several mobilizations and even lost the power to control the army for a while. However, with the support of the other generals of the border army, he was transferred back.

Staying away from home and constantly fighting is not a happy thing, and this process of mobilizing up and down due to the need for power struggle is even more unpleasant.

Especially when Wei Rui encountered the Demon Sect and fought with the Demon Sect before, his face was always covered with frost and he rarely smiled.

At this time, the general following him was Jin Dong.

Jin Dong was originally the garrison of Zhongli City and a survivor of Zhongli's Battle. After Zhongli's Battle, he was too seriously injured and was taken care of by Mingwei's army. After a few months, Cao Jingzong simply tried to transfer him to Mingwei's army.

Compared with the Battle of Zhongli, Jin Dong looked much thinner and more vicissitudes.

Two people stood on the slope.

At this time, this hillside belonged to the Northern Wei Dynasty last year, and after this hillside, it was a large area of ​​territory that the Southern Dynasties had always dreamed of.

In order to prevent the northerners from advancing south, the best way for the soldiers of the Southern Dynasties was to fight and hit Luoyang.

But at this time the cold wind was bleak, and both of them were very bleak.

The military information in Shangqiu and even Luoyang was quickly transmitted to the border troops of the Southern Dynasty in the most urgent way, even at the cost of exposing some military information transmission routes.

The Demon Sect alone caused the defensive chaos in the entire Northern Wei Dynasty.

Not only tens of thousands of border troops were directly destroyed in the hands of the Demon Sect, many armies in fortresses and border cities, especially those elite cavalry and a large number of cultivators, were all heading to Shangqiu for assistance.

For them, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

As long as you take the opportunity to launch a large-scale attack, you will definitely defeat the Northern Wei army again, and you may even attack Shangqiu and Luoyang directly.

If it were more than half a year earlier, the military opportunity would not be missed. Long before the Jiankang issued an order, the border troops of the Southern Dynasties might have emerged in full swing and attacked several important border cities of the Northern Wei Dynasty first.

But now, everything seems to have changed.

The Southern Dynasty seemed to have changed its taste, giving people a completely different feeling than when the new dynasty was changed, and the border army had also changed its taste. When many hidden secrets of the Northern Wei Dynasty took great risks and delivered such news to the border army as fast as possible, no one of the high-level generals of the border army took the initiative to take the opportunity to attack.

The border troops of the Southern Dynasties did not know much about the old woman in the palace, but Cao Jingzong and many high-level generals were sure that she must be a powerful practitioner.

In the exact information, the large array that enveloped the entire palace and the astonishing fluctuations of vitality that completely surpassed the realm of divine thoughts were enough to prove this.

"I think those of them are probably thinking about the same as mine."

Cao Jingzong looked at the large area of ​​land shrouded in the frost flowers in the Northern Wei Dynasty and sighed, "It's just that this opportunity is missed. The merger of north and south is beyond our control. I don't know if there is still a chance to see it in this life."

"What?"

Jin Dong was stunned. He could understand Cao Jingzong's last few words of emotion. After all, the Demon Sect became the real demon king, while the Southern Dynasties and the Northern Wei Dynasty were both internal and external troubles, but he did not quite understand Cao Jingzong's first words.

"The Northern Wei... in terms of courage, it is difficult for us to compare with the Southern Dynasties, and it is worthy of admiration. Although I don't know why the Demon Sect disappeared from Shangqiu, if it were in our south, we might not be able to do anything like the Northern Wei."

Cao Jingzong took a deep breath and slowly exhaled.

The white vapor he exhaled from his mouth was like a white sensation in the cold air.

"If the emperor had not made so many mistakes before, even if he had just let General Wei Rui ignore him in the border army, even if he had just put Lin Yi in exile and ignored him...or if he began to admit his mistakes, and if he had ambition to do many things like when he ascended the throne, then there would definitely be generals who would advocate sending troops today."

He let out a long sigh, but his brows frowned, "Now he may not even have the confidence to unify the north and the south, so who else would do this."

After saying this, he slowly shook his head, "This has nothing to do with how brave the people of the Northern Wei Dynasty are. This is entirely our own problem. What's more, now they have temporarily solved the problem of the Demon Sect with this courage. At a moment when they share the same hatred of the enemy, even if we seize this opportunity, we don't know how many people will die."

Jin Dong smiled bitterly.

He knew that Cao Jingzong had another sentence without saying.

The dead are not afraid, but they are afraid that even the generals don’t know what reason to let these soldiers die.

“Too fast.”

Cao Jingzong lowered his head, "Shen Yue and He Xiuxing died, the empress dowager also died, and now the empress dowager of the Northern Wei Dynasty is also dead... These old people have left the world, and the thoughts of these young people are even more difficult to understand."

...

Shortly after Xiao Yan left the deserted garden of the Nantianyuan, a carriage arrived at the entrance of the Nantianyuan.

During the battle between Shen Yue and He Xiuxing, the vitality above the Nantianyuan fluctuated violently. The Nantianyuan was also seriously damaged by the subsequent power shock and vibration. The students left because of the battle that Chen Yue was about to launch. However, after leaving, the students were also scattered among the local Zhenwu Army and the border army. Most of the teachers in the Nantianyuan also left, but the Nantianyuan still did not allow outsiders to enter at will. In addition to a few teachers still in the Nantianyuan, there were still troops guarding the surroundings.

The carriage stopped, and a tall young woman walked out of the carriage.

When the woman walked to the door, a teacher in a black shirt appeared in front of her.

"My surname is Chen."

The young woman said to the teacher, "There are many people coming today. You can avoid it for now, so you don't need to ask again."

The teacher in black shirt looked shaking and suddenly thought of the woman's identity. Without even hesitation, he nodded and said, "I understand."

Not long after, another carriage stopped at the entrance of the South Heavenly Courtyard.

No one came to ask or stop him again, but the people from the South Heavenly Court can not ask, or pretend not to see it, but they will not really not see it.

Several teachers watched the carriage stop in the South Heaven Courtyard silently, and when they saw the two people walking out of the carriage, the bodies of these teachers trembled slightly.

Their eyes were filled with emotions that were hard to describe.

They knew that something very important must have happened in the South Heavenly Court today, but they did not expect that Lin Yi would appear directly in their sight like this.

Lin Yi was once a student here.

But in the years since he left, he has become the most important figure in the world.

"What are we going to do?"

One of the teachers looked at the rest and asked.

"We'd better not do anything." A teacher shook his head.

...

Before the deserted garden, the mountain breeze blew on Chen Baowan's face, blowing her long hair.

Compared to being in Meishan a few years ago, there is no childishness on her face.

I can't say that she is very girlish.

I can only say that I am a very beautiful, calm and heroic young woman.

Hearing the footsteps behind her, she quickly turned around and looked at Lin Yi and Xiao Shufei who appeared in her sight. She smiled and said seriously: "Long time no see."

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Looking at "Chen Baobao", Lin Yi's eyes were filled with emotion.

The more wind and frost on his face, it was not the helpless boy in the dilapidated courtyard in the past.

"Thank you."

Xiao Shufei looked at Chen Baowan and thanked her seriously.

"Wei Rui and Yuan Yan will arrive soon, and your senior brother will arrive too."

Chen Baowan was not very polite, but then continued to whisper: "As for Teacher Wu, he should come soon. Since we want to talk, we will be clearer together."

Lin Yi sighed, "It's your usual style of being so happy."

Chen Baowan glanced at him and smiled, "It's your usual style."

Lin Yi and Xiao Shufei walked to her, and naturally stood in parallel with her, looking at the deserted garden in the South Heavenly Courtyard.

The technique he passed on from He Cultivation in this deserted garden quickly grasped the method of Dajuluo's practice. If it weren't for He Cultivation, I don't know if he could truly understand it before his journey to Meishan.

If he can't, he may not be able to survive in Meishan.
