460 Friends and foes 5

It was snowing outside the house, and Yu Shiqi added some firewood to the stove in front of everyone. During this period, he said to An Nianjiu: "The current situation is complicated, and the imperial capital must be on high alert, and I'm afraid it's not easy to get in."

An Nianjiu also understood this, but she didn't seem to be ready to change her determination.

Gu Mingzhou next to him answered: "There is still a way to enter the city. It's a little difficult, but then again, when Yun Zhongjian did a mission, it was not impossible to deal with the difficulties and dangers?"

Yu Shiqi looked at his imposing expression and suddenly smiled: "I remember when we first met, you were still thinking about going back to Yuling."

"There has been occupied by rebels now." Gu Mingzhou shook his head, "Although it is not a war zone, the rebels are collecting supplies from the people. The situation of the rebels is still favorable. If it is reversed by the court, it will only become more severe. By that time, if the country is not in a state, how can we talk about having a family?"

Yu Shiqi understood what he meant, and then asked: "I wonder what the villa thinks about the current situation? Which side will the sect leader agree with?"

An Nianjiu smiled bitterly: "How many people will there be left in the sect leader? The sect leader of Lei Wei, the sect leader Yan and the sect leader Teng are not in the villa now, and the position of the sect leader is still undecided. In fact, the former sect leader Bai Yi is the one who takes the initiative."

"What did Master Bai say?"

Gu Mingzhou replied: "The Master Bai Da Sect will not let the Wilderness Sect intervene in the world's dispute. He said that although the court persecuted us, it does not mean that the rebels will accept us. In this matter, we cannot use the method of taking the minority of the two evils."

"So the villa plans to wait and see what's going on?"

“That’s the case for the time being.”

Yu Shiqi waved at Jin Yan, who was standing in the distance, and the latter understood that he presented a map.

"The rebels are now out of Yongshui Pass. This pass is the gateway to the west of the capital and is still in the hands of the Imperial Army. However... if there is no support, it is only a matter of time to fall." Yu Shiqi said to the map, "After Yongshui Pass, there is the capital plain, and the rebels will directly surround the imperial capital."

An Nianjiu said: "So we have to kill the traitor before the fall of Yongshui Pass. It will only be more difficult to drag it down."

"Actually, if the rebels were allowed to capture the imperial capital, that guy would probably not be able to survive." Gu Mingzhou thought and asked.

An Nianjiu gritted her teeth: "When the imperial capital was broken, that kind of person would definitely meet with Feng to surrender and turn against him! It is a shame for us to let such people live one more day!"

Gu Mingzhou raised his hands and showed a helpless expression, indicating that he was willing to work with her to punish the rebellion.

Yu Shiqi continued to explain to them what he knew: "I asked Wangchuan's people to investigate. If there is no accident in Yongshui Pass, it will be broken within ten days. Once the rebels enter the pass, the vanguard can reach the capital within three days at the earliest."

An Nianjiu and Gu Mingzhou looked at each other, and both realized that there was not much time left for them.

"Since that's the case, we can't delay any more."

"It takes five days to set off from Huai'an, and it's still time to set off."

The two then stood up and said goodbye to Yu Shiqi together.

Yu Shiqi and Xiling Yue were stunned for a moment, and then stood up, obviously not expecting that they were so anxious to leave.

"No need to give it to you." An Nianjiu raised his hand to stop Yu Shiqi, with a slight distant tone in his tone.

Xilingyue opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end she just stared at Yu Shiqi in a daze.

Gu Mingzhou nodded at Yu Shiqi's mouth, turned around and threw himself into the wind and snow outside the house.

"Don't you tell them that the rebels are Le Zheng Longhua and the Dragon Blood God Sect behind them?" Xiling Yue asked.

"They have enough troubles." Yu Shiqi sighed, "The power of the Yunzhong Sword is so weak now. It's better to do things one by one. Now that I know, it's just a little bit of trouble."

Xilingyue nodded and said, "That matter to the imperial capital..."

"Go and clean up, we'll leave too." Yu Shiqi had already made up his mind.

Xilingyue was not surprised, but was just curious why he didn't walk with An Nianjiu and Gu Mingzhou. She asked Yu Shiqi about her doubts.

"The primary goals of both sides are not the same, and peers will only increase unnecessary trouble." Yu Shiqi explained simply.

Xilingyue looked at him worriedly: "It's An Nianjiu's attitude that has brought you concerns."

Yu Shiqi was silent for a moment and smiled relaxedly: "Probably yes, I didn't even notice this myself... But I think she has that serious personality."

"I think she is very nervous." Xiling Yue blinked, "And... Compared to the last time I saw her in Hanlin Temple before, I think she seems..."

Xiling Yue stopped talking and asked Yu Shiqi, who was about to pack up, stopped and looked at her strangely: "What's wrong? Yue'er?"

"She seems a little haggard." Xiling Yue shrugged, "Didn't you notice it? The white hair on her head is almost the same as Yu Zike, and it looks very obvious. But these two people shouldn't have been so early... it was because of overwork?"

Yu Shiqi was stunned for a moment. He knew the reason why An Nianjiu had gray hair early, because the dragon blood was burning her life span. As for the self in another world - Yu Zike, he didn't quite understand the reason.

"Do you know what happened to An Nianjiu?" Xiling Yue saw the clues in his eyes.

"She got dragon blood from Senior Yuan Che." Yu Shiqi said, "According to what she said, that was the result she had to face in a situation where she had no choice."

"So that's it..." Xiling Yue understood, "It seems that Yun Zhongjian encountered a lot of things during the period when we were separated."

"Of course, most of the ten evils have been eliminated." Yu Shiqi said, "Apart from Mu Tianze, who I don't know if I can come back, I don't think it's worth worrying about the rest. Although the Void Mirror Sea is a little troublesome, we have the inheritance of ancient swords. The remaining major problems are actually Le Zheng Longhua and Lanying."

"It's really difficult to deal with the master and servant teaming up," Xiling Yue said in a slight sense. "Especially the loyal dog of Lanying, I don't know if my secret technique can beat her now."

Yu Shiqi gently stroked her head: "Don't think about these things for now, go pack up your things."

"Okay." Xiling Yue smiled sweetly at him, "Husband, don't worry, if you hurry up and catch up with them, you will be embarrassed by it."

"What's wrong with me?" Yu Shiqi shrugged.

Xilingyue raised her eyebrows: "I won't change my approach to taking care of anyone's feelings. If you should get close to you, it's best if you don't feel shy."

Yu Shiqi followed her words and said, "Okay, then we are embarrassed to get together. After fighting with so many enemies over the years, I understand one thing. The trust and kindness in my heart seem worthless to them. So as long as I don't care about other people's opinions, no one can blame me. Yue'er, what do you think?"

Xilingyue smiled evilly and agreed: "It's so good, husband, you finally got to know it! I don't like hypocrites, fake Taoism..."

"Jinghu said, I don't think about the first time I met in Xiyuequan. If I dared to show my dissolution, I would have fed your lion a long time ago." Yu Shiqi stretched out his fingers on her forehead and bounced it.

"Ha, I don't know which disciple of a famous and upright sect secretly held the clothes he changed and was smelling it."

"Do you have it? I don't remember it."

"You...you..." Xiling Yue gritted her teeth and tried to hit him.

Yu Shiqi easily grabbed her hand and subdued her. The difference between the two of them was too big. One lost the gift from Ling Ji, and the other received the true teaching of Liu's Scroll without Swords. As one did not use the secret technique, Xiling Yue had no power to resist in front of him.

"I still can't do anything anymore? Hum?" Yu Shiqi jokingly looked at Xilingyue, whose hands were cut back by her back, and she couldn't do anything about it.

"It hurts so much... Be gentle." Xiling Yue closed one eye and showed a painful expression.

"I didn't even use my strength, so why did I hurt you?" Yu Shiqi subconsciously relaxed his hand when she shouted.

Xilingyue took the opportunity to break free from his hands in an instant, turned around and stuck out her tongue to make a face at him.

Yu Shiqi thought she looked inexplicably cute, so she reached out to pinch her face, but Xiling Yue took the opportunity to bite her.

Jin Jin, who had just walked outside the door to inform Yu Shiqi that the carriages were ready, saw this scene and shrugged his shoulders and turned around.
