In the grassland camp, the close insect placed on the table folded its wings and hung up the communication.
The girl named Jialuo looked at the close insect who hung up the communication and was speechless for a long time.
"It's almost four thousand miles from Chang'an to Wangting. Can they make it in time?"
Jialuo's brother, Ashina Que Teqin said in a deep voice: "The group of people in Taihao Mountain will monitor the border between the two countries, and they cannot fly over directly with their swords.
What’s more, there are a large number of monks loyal to Ashdecoro, wandering and patrolling the grasslands.”
"They'll get there."
Jia Luo said firmly, "He will arrive."
Of course Que Teqin knew who this "he" was referring to. In the minds of Yu people and even foreigners, that person was a being who could continuously create miracles.
"good."
Que Teqin sighed, "You put the close insect away. I'm going to attend Ashina's meeting.
Damn it, even though disaster has befallen us, those uncles and uncles are still quarreling and there is no unified opinion.
Some people think that the Khan is not dead and want to find ways to violently snatch the Khan back;
Some believe that the Khan is dead and now want to take back the heirs who were under house arrest;
There are even fools who really listened to Koro's words, thinking that the Khan was murdered by his son with poisoned wine and that the Ashina family was gone, so they persuaded everyone to prepare to give up power to the Astrid family - after all, we are all related."
Que Teqin angrily punched the wooden table, leaving a fist mark.
Among his uncles and elders, there are many who have graduated from the Wolf Garden and have killed countless demons.
However, decades of glory and wealth have long made these nobles fat and dull with swords and guns. Facing the menacing enemy, they cannot even discuss a strategy to deal with it.
Que Teqin walked out of the camp angrily and worriedly, while Jialuo silently picked up the close-up insect and put it into a special lead box lined with brocade.
Everlasting Heaven, please protect your people, and hope that war will never come

"During my absence, the Academy will claim that I am in seclusion to develop follow-up drugs for the plague."
In the pavilion in the back mountain, Li Ang told Chai Chai: "Leling will move here to live with you. You will have normal classes in the academy, pretending that I am still in the back mountain."
During this period, people from the Supervision Department will secretly protect you—there may be spies or assassins.”
Chai Chai's expression was complicated. She did not ask what kind of mission Li Ang had received in the Daming Palace, nor did she protest because she had to endure the displacement again. She just nodded and said seriously: "I understand."
Li Ang smiled bitterly and scratched his hair, "Sorry, this happened again."
Chai Chai shook his head, "Dalang, you often say that 'power and responsibility are unified'. I live in a pavilion on the back mountain and study in a school. All my food and supplies come from the donations of the people of the Yu Kingdom. This is nothing."
Li Ang looked at the serious expression on the little maid's face and couldn't help but pinch her cheek gently. Amid Chai Chai's protest, he retracted his palm with a smile.
"The sun rises."
He Fanshuang stood at the door of the pavilion and said calmly: "It's time to go."
When the time came to say goodbye, Li Ang pursed his lips, summoned his luggage with telekinesis, left Chai Chai "take care of yourself", and followed He Fanshuang onto the carriage.
There were already two people sitting in the carriage, Sui Yi and Qiu Feng.
Sui Yi was holding makeup tools and carefully applying them on Qiu Feng's face. When he saw Li Ang and Li Ang appeared, he took out two stacks of documents from under the seat, threw them to them, and said, "This is a covert operation. Let's start from Chang'an."
Take the train to Anbei Protectorate.
The Zhenfu Division has arranged a Turkic caravan composed of our own people in the local area.
This is your pseudonym and identity.
We followed the caravan, passed the border, and passed the prairie cavalry patrol. Then we speeded up, trying to avoid the wandering cavalry scouts as much as possible.
If everything goes well, we can arrive at the Turkic Royal Court in four to five days."
"Four to five days."
Li Ang looked through the document, which introduced him as a clerk in the caravan, "Isn't there a faster way?"
"It's already the fastest way."
Sui Yi shook his head and said: "You can't fly with a sword, and you can't use the academy's latest invention - that thing is too conspicuous, and the fluctuations of the spiritual energy machine can be felt on the ground hundreds of miles away.
And if it flies too high, the aircraft will be damaged by strong winds."
The carriage drove out of Xiashan Mountain and arrived at the station, where we met our fellow travelers in the train.
Li Ang's classmate in the academy, Asted Tumen - he is a relative of the Ast clan and can help everyone enter the royal court.
The palace is dedicated to Shen Tuyu - he is the leader of this mission.
And, He Fanshuang’s brother He Siping.
Li Ang was a little surprised to see He Siping. The latter explained with a smile: "Before I served as the crown prince's auxiliary officer, I was an expert on Turkic affairs in the Academy. I went to the royal court as an envoy many times. I knew some of them there.
friend.
The Zhenfu Division has dispatched shadow warriors to continue to appear in Chang'an City on my behalf."
He Siping once served as a patrol officer in the academy and was a monk in the high realm of patrolling the clouds. There was no problem with his strength.
Everyone changed their appearance, boarded the train, arrived at the Anbei Protectorate, and joined a hundred-man caravan composed of Turks and Yu people.
This caravan was previously under the name of Jin Wusuan, and all the clerks in it had been informed, so no questions were asked.
The caravan passed through the border fortress and entered the grassland. It traveled normally during the day and continued on its way at night with the help of wind charms. In this way, it traveled day and night to the Turkic royal court.
During this period, I encountered patrolling Turkic scouts and even monks many times. Fortunately, I was disguised enough to avoid arousing suspicion.
On the fourth day, they had arrived at Tongluo City, and were only about three hundred miles away from the royal court.

"We'll be able to see Jialuo at this time tomorrow, right?"
In the room of Tongluocheng Inn, Qiu Feng sighed, "I wonder how she is doing."
"Ji people have their own destiny."
He Fanshuang used chopsticks to pick up a piece of mutton as thin as a cicada's wings from the copper pot in front of her, and said calmly: "She is the grand-niece of the old Khan. She is not at the top of the list of heirs. She will be fine."
"Um."
He Siping nodded and added a piece of mutton to the bowl, "Judging from the information collected along the way, most Turkic people still respect the old Khan.
Ashina still has the power to protect herself, and no matter how arrogant the powerful prime minister is, he does not dare to push too far.
Risheng, don’t you want to eat something?”
This inn was built by a Yu people in the Turks. The taste of the food is in line with the habits of the Yu people. The mutton is first soaked in water for several hours. When cooking, a whole pine stick and a lot of spices are added. The cooked mutton has no
Fishy smell.
"No."
Li Ang, who was standing by the window, waved his hand and said, "You guys can eat."
He looked at the city thoughtfully.
In the impression of many Yu people, the Turks are just a barbarian nation that lives in sheepskin tents and plunders from time to time.
However, the Tongluo City in front of us also has roads, bridges, houses, shops, and pavilions.
Except that the buildings are slightly lower, the wind and sand are stronger, and the pedestrians on the road look different, there is almost no difference from the city of Yu State.
The State of Yu developed rapidly with the help of the Academy, and other countries followed suit.
Several Turkic soldiers passed by on the street below, took out a stack of paper, and pasted it on the wooden sign on the street.
Li Ang squinted at the text on the paper and couldn't help but burst out laughing - it was a rat control notice written in Turkic and Yu Chinese characters.
He walked towards the door and said to his companions: "I'll go down and take a look."
