Chapter 284 Guanshan City
Chapter 284 Guanshan City
After Ji Jiuying asked Qingling to use the sound transmission butterfly to inform Gu Qingfeng in the restaurant, she also asked Yingyue to go back to Cangyue and take Lengshuang with them to secretly go to Jialan Country.
That night, the sky was completely dark. Ji Jiuying and Gong Mingyue brought Jun Lintian, Qing Ling, Hei Xiangling who had transformed into human form, and Bai Mengfan who had come to find them in the middle of the night.
Regarding Hei Xiang Ling, Ji Jiuying only said that he was a friend. As for where this friend came from, she did not explain in detail, and everyone was tactful and did not ask too many questions.
The group of people were riding on the flying boat, talking and laughing, and they didn't look like they were going to a war at all. Of course, Bai Mengfan was the only one who was unhappy. Her country was being attacked. If they lost the war, she, as the daughter of an official, would most likely become a plaything of the Western Jin Dynasty.
"Xiao Jiujiu, didn't you say this morning that we would set off early tomorrow morning? Why did you change your mind?" Jun Lintian asked curiously.
"Since we are going to Jialan secretly, it would be best to go when the moon is dark and the wind is strong~"
Upon hearing this, Jun Lintian nodded in understanding, as if this was the truth.
Ji Jiuying leaned back in the chair, sipping the Linglong flower tea in her hand. This was her first time drinking Linglong flower tea. She had to say that Jialan's Linglong flower tea was quite good. After drinking it, the tendons and veins all over her body seemed to be moisturized by warm water, making her feel warm and sweet, which was very much to Ji Jiuying's taste.
"This Jialan Linglong tea is really delicious!" Ji Jiuying couldn't help but praise it. When Bai Mengfan said it at first, she didn't believe it.
After hearing this, Bai Mengfan regretted even more. He regretted giving most of the Linglong flower tea to Jun Luoli, and he also regretted not taking more with him.
"Senior Sister, if you like it, I'll give you more next time we meet." Bai Mengfan said quickly.
"I heard that this Linglong Flower Tea is very expensive in Jialan. How can you get it so easily?" Jun Lintian asked curiously.
"Second Prince, I am the eldest daughter of the Duke of Jialan's Mansion. This Jialan's Linglong Flower Tea is grown by our Duke's Mansion, so..." Bai Mengfan explained.
Everyone understood at this moment. They only knew that Bai Mengfan was the daughter of an official in Jialan, but they didn't expect that she was the daughter of a duke, and therefore half a royal lady. In this case, Han Shaoting was still Bai Mengfan's cousin, but they seemed to have never heard Bai Mengfan call Han Shaoting cousin.
"Bai Mengfan, how do you know we will set off for Jialan tonight?" Ji Jiuying asked curiously.
"Senior Sister, it was the Fourth Princess who told me." Bai Mengfan told the truth. She originally wanted to go back to Jialan with the eldest prince Han Shaoting, but she was still a step too late. She accidentally learned from the Fourth Princess that the Second Prince Cangyue and the senior sister would go to Jialan early the next morning, so she wanted to inform them in advance. Unexpectedly, she ran into the senior sister and the others when they set off, and the handsome man she saw that day was also in the crowd.
Ji Jiuying frowned slightly when she heard this. How could Jun Luoli know that they were going to Jialan? She looked at Jun Lintian with unkind eyes, and Jun Lintian swallowed.
"Xiao Jiujiu, when I was saying goodbye to Sect Master Yue, Jun Luoli accidentally found out about this..."
Jun Lintian and Jun Luoli are both disciples of Sect Master Yue, so the chance of meeting them is indeed high.
Bai Mengfan discovered from the tone of their conversation that the eldest sister and the second prince Jun Lintian seemed to dislike the fourth princess. Thinking about how she had given Jun Luoli a lot of treasures to please her during this period, she felt a pang of pain.
"Big sister, Second Prince, am I disturbing you?"
"No, no! Don't think too much about it!" Jun Lintian knew that she had misunderstood and spoke quickly.
"Just, don't tell anyone about our visit to Jialan after you arrive in Jialan." Jun Lintian thought for a moment and reminded again. After all, human hearts are unpredictable.
Bai Mengfan nodded quickly, indicating that he would not say anything more.
Thinking that Bai Mengfan was also a disciple of the Medicine Sect, Ji Jiuying only reminded her that if she wanted to be a good pharmacist, it was not enough to just study hard in the academy. No matter what it was, it all needed to be improved through actual combat.
As the sky brightened, the group finally arrived at Guanshan City, which was not far from the last captured city. This Guanshan City should be the city that the Western Jin Dynasty wanted to attack next. As for why it took so long, it must be because Guanshan City was surrounded by rugged mountains on all sides, and it was impossible to capture it in a short time.
Ji Jiuying looked at the map given by Han Shaoting and decided to set up camp in the mountains west of Guanshan City first. After listening to Ji Jiuying's words, Bai Mengfan did not plan to return to Kyoto City, but planned to stay and help.
Gong Mingyue waved his sleeves, and more than a thousand elite soldiers appeared in the mountains. Bai Mengfan and Jun Lintian widened their eyes, thinking that he was worthy of being the National Master (he was worthy of being the Senior Sister's man!). However, Bai Mengfan was stunned when he saw there were only a few thousand people, but when he thought that with the Senior Sister and the powerful man there, there would be no problem.
Soon, a large roc appeared in the sky, and everyone became alert, tightly grasping their weapons.
"Don't panic, they are our own people!" Qing Ling reminded helplessly. While speaking, Dapeng landed in front of everyone. The people on it came in front of Ji Jiuying. Ji Jiuying looked at the twelve people walking towards her in surprise. She didn't expect that Feilong and Feihu would also follow.
"master!"
"Light and agile!"
"You are here!" Ji Jiuying looked at the twelve people in front of her with satisfaction.
Haitang: "Master, we missed you so much during the time you were away!"
"Don't be lazy while I'm away!" Ji Jiuying said with a smile.
"We are not lazy, master. What happened to you in the East China Sea has spread throughout Cangyue, and I'm afraid it's almost the same in other countries. Master, you must be careful!" Leng Shuang looked at Ji Jiuying worriedly.
"Master, under the arrangement of Lord Yingyue, we have established the power of the Floating Life Realm in the Cangyue Country. Do you want to take this opportunity to promote the reputation of the Floating Life Mirror?" Yunyang stepped forward and whispered.
Ji Jiuying shook her head. She had also thought about this, but it was not the right time.
"No, this matter is not urgent."
No one said anything, as the master must have her reasons for saying so.
About an incense stick of time later, Ji Jiuying arranged everyone's tasks and decided to take Bai Mengfan, Bai Zhi and Yun Shu into the city with Gong Mingyue. They dressed up a little and disguised themselves as Bai Mengfan's maids. As for Gong Mingyue, he had his own way.
Since this is the next city that the Western Jin Dynasty wants to attack, there must be spies from the Western Jin Dynasty in the city, so they have to act with caution.
Soon they arrived at the gate of Guanshan City. The gate was heavily guarded. Everyone who entered had to be checked in the yellow book. If they were not Jia Lan's people, no one was allowed to enter.
"Who are you guys? What are you doing in Guanshan City?"
The soldiers at the door noticed them and walked up to them and shouted at them.
