When the sun began to rise, Yanbeicheng began to become bustling and lively as usual.
Yan Wulu, the crown prince of Zhenbei, has accepted the marriage offer and is about to go to Jinling.
Jiang Yueling, one of the prince's concubines, stayed in Yanbeicheng to raise her baby because she was pregnant.
Jiang's mother was given extra permission by King Zhenbei. During this period, she had the right to enter and leave the palace at will, and could often visit and take care of Jiang Yueling... This was one of the suggestions Yan Wulu made to Yan Dong.
In Jiang Yueling's palace.
Yan Wulu held the other person's hand, and he promised Jiang Yueling that he would rush to Jiang Yueling's side before the fetus was born, accompany and protect her, and wait for the arrival of the new life together...
"Brother Wulu."
Jiang Yueling stared at the person in front of her longingly for a moment and spoke unconsciously.
In the distance, at the palace gate, Yan Dong heard this and just smiled faintly for a moment.
…
On the way to send Yan Wulu away from Yanbeicheng.
Yan Dong rode a horse and walked side by side with Yan Wulu.
Suddenly, Yan Dong approached Yan Wulu and said with a hint of joking——
"Lu'er, when we were in the palace before, the girl from the Jiang family called you...Brother Wu Lu?"
Yan Wulu was stunned when he heard this.
He felt slightly embarrassed. After all, this was a term of endearment between him and Jiang Yueling, but Yan Dong suddenly brought it up like this...
Without waiting for Yan Wulu to reply, Yan Dong just laughed and said——
"Hahaha, that's really interesting."
Yan Wulu didn't know how to answer, and for a moment he could only chuckle in agreement.
However, in front of him, Yan Dong seemed not to be prepared to say anything bad about Yan Wulu's behavior.
"Speaking of which, my father reminds me that back then, your mother also called my father 'Brother Dong'. Hahaha..."
Yan Dong's laughter is cheerful and bold.
He did not shy away from what happened between him and Princess Liu Mengyun of Zhenbei back then.
This kind and cheerful laughter actually made the surrounding Zhenbei cavalry guards who had been living under Yan Dong's cold pressure all year round feel that there was something abnormal about Sisi.
Yan Wulu didn't reply for a while...
He was very envious of his father for being able to recall his mother's past many years later, something he could relish and tell to his descendants.
And between himself, Zhang Chunhua, and Jiang Yueling... I am afraid that for a while, he can only tell some stories about men and women that are not suitable for children.
Yan Wulu chuckled inwardly...
Raise your head slightly and look up at the sky.
He was a little curious, how did his father, Wang Yandong, get along with his mother back then?
…
Outside Yanbei City.
"I'll send you a thousand miles away, but I'll have to say goodbye in the end."
Yan Dong quoted from scriptures and felt inexplicably emotional.
"...When my son grows up, he will eventually be unable to keep him."
"Father." Yan Wulu smiled faintly and bitterly, "...within eight months, the child will return safely from Jinling and bring you a beautiful princess daughter-in-law."
Yan Dong also smiled when he heard this.
"What's the use of having so many daughters-in-law as a father?"
Yan Dong said, slightly hinting that Yan Wulu looked at Zhang Chunhua beside him, "...Eight months, or two years, it actually doesn't matter."
"...But, Lu'er, you'd better bring me a fat boy with the last name 'Yan' when you return to Yanbei."
"Let me declare in advance, if this girl Zhang Chunhua doesn't hold my Yan family's child when she comes back, or if her waist and abdomen are still so slender, you will be waiting to become a father..."
"...arrange ten beauties from the North to entangle you in the palace every day, and then ban you from the palace until you give birth to a grandson for me!"
Yan Wulu was stunned for a moment.
He wanted to say...this father is not bad, at least he didn't say that he wanted to break his legs. (Yan Wulu's inner cute version of the villain smiles evilly.)
…
After a small episode.
Yan Wulu and his father Yan Dong said goodbye in front of Yanbei City Gate.
"Father, my son is leaving."
Yan Wulu cupped his fists at Yan Dong.
Yan Dong nodded slightly, "Go ahead."
"...Remember, you are my Yan Dong's son. Behind you are two hundred thousand Zhenbei Army waiting to fight!"
"...In Jinling City, as long as you kill the royal family members without knowing it."
"...Everything else can be done."
Yan Wulu's eyes were solemn, and he clasped his fists again, "I understand, kid."
Immediately, he got on his horse.
Wu Yunju set off first, carrying a large amount of baggage on the carriage.
Five hundred Zhenbei cavalry guards accompanied them.
A long procession slowly drove from Yanbei to Jinling.
…
…
Yanbei and Jinling.
One north and one south.
They are the two most famous giant cities in Daqian, and even in the whole world.
There is a distance of more than two thousand miles.
Even with the foot power of Zhenbei's army and horses, it would take several days to march along the Daqian Tunnel.
This is even more true now that there are more than 500 people in the team. If they move slowly, it will only take longer.
But Yan Wulu didn't care at all...
Anyway, staying on the road for a while can give those with ulterior motives some opportunities.
…
Not long after leaving Yanbei.
This time, Yan Wulu's team was even more magnificent than the last time he traveled. In addition to the five hundred Zhenbei cavalry guards, there were also a number of corresponding servants.
The Daqian Mission was also among them.
In addition, there were four people accompanying him: Amaro, Zhang Chunhua, Qin Shumian, and Nan Chuanyue.
Amoluo has an agreement with King Zhenbei to protect Wulu's safe return from Jinling.
There is no need to say more about Zhang Chunhua.
Qin Shumian and Nan Chuanyue were both brought along at the request of Yan Wulu.
One of them is a concubine of the Qin family in Jinling. Although she is almost an illegitimate daughter, she will definitely come in handy after arriving in Jinling. Maybe she can make some deals with the Qin family.
The other person, as a scholar, followed Yan Wulu.
Minami Kawagoe's identity is too special and he must be kept under his nose, otherwise it may be difficult to control him.
Furthermore, if he meets other children of luck, he might be able to help seize luck.
…
The team came to a dry forest in autumn.
On both sides of the corridor, the branches of the big trees withered and gradually turned into ghosts like howling ghosts and howling wolves.
Amaro, who was riding a horse alongside Yan Wulu, suddenly stretched out his hand, motioning for everyone to stop, and said -
"Your Highness, please don't go any further."
Yan Wulu also felt the [Sky Spiritual Root] in his body, and said casually, "Master, have you also sensed the existence of those people? They are all powerful warriors no less than fifth level."
"Exactly."
Amaro spoke calmly, his pearls shining brightly, as if he didn't take these people to heart, "Rong Qian Monk, let's deal with this group of people first."
"Then thank you, Master." Yan Wulu bowed his head slightly to express his thanks.
"Does the Crown Prince need a living mouth?"
"It's not necessary. It's all up to the master to do whatever he wants."
As he spoke, Amaro nodded.
His figure was illusory, and the next step was to disappear from the saddle, appear in front, take a few steps, and then completely disappear into the dead forest.
A silent moment passed.
Suddenly, the sky burned with fire.
The powerful internal force turned into substantial flames, and all he could see in front of his eyes was red, and then a wave of fire came like a whirlwind.
Amaro, dressed in an exquisite red cassock, walked slowly out of the dead trees.
"Amitabha."
He held the Buddha's name in his right hand and bowed his head slightly.
Dead trees nearby are being burned.
But then, Amaro clenched his fist, and all the flames on the dead trees turned into red and the inner energy was introduced into his palm...
"God has the virtue of a happy life."
Amaro spoke calmly, as if explaining why he put out fires and saved trees.
He came to Yan Wulu and said -
"Your Highness, there are a total of twenty-eight disguised thieves, all of whom are above fifth-level warriors. The strongest leader is in the mid-sixth level. Their martial arts skills are all masters from the inner circle of Jinling City."
"...all of them have been sent to the Western Paradise by the poor monks."
"The master has unparalleled martial arts skills and is compassionate."
Yan Wulu clasped his fists slightly and praised "sincerely": "... He is really a unique person in the world, a holy Buddha of Buddhism."
"Your Majesty is so complimentary."
Amaro was polite and modest, but the joy in his eyebrows was hard to conceal.
"The poor monk briefly asked about a thief leader. He wanted to save his life and capture him and hand him over to the prince, but the man actually bit the poison in his mouth and committed suicide by taking the poison."
