"Speaking of which, what kind of place is this Thirteenth Division of Xizhou?" Ning Yujin read some geographical records from various places, but the collection of ancient books was limited after all, and they were not very detailed. Most of the books she read were from Daye.
, followed by Eastern Qi and Northern Vietnam. Regarding the Thirteen Parts of Xizhou, there are only a few words and the introduction is unclear.
Murong Xuan naturally had more miscellaneous books than Ning Yujin. He could say a few words about this: "The Thirteen Departments of Xizhou are located to the west of Daye. The area is very wide. I heard it is even bigger than Daye."
It's big. Most of them are deep mountains and old forests, with high mountains and ridges. The terrain is very complex, and there are towering trees everywhere, and poisonous insects are everywhere, so the people there are mostly good at poison, witchcraft, and Gu."
When Ning Yujin heard the last sentence, she immediately became interested. She raised her eyebrows and asked Murong: "Sir, do you think that witchcraft is easy to learn?"
"Is it possible that Third Miss wants to learn?" Murong Xuan saw Ning Yujin's greedy look, raised his head and looked at the sky, and suddenly thought, "There seems to be a legend about this witchcraft."
"What legend?" Ning Yujin asked curiously.
Murong Xuan thought for a while and said: "I heard that it happened many years ago. A brave and skilled general in North Vietnam wanted to attack the Thirteenth Division of Xizhou, so he sent heavy troops to crush him directly. As a result, he brought 100,000 troops just now
Not long after entering the area of the Thirteenth Division of Xizhou, one by one fell ill with a strange disease, and more than half of them were killed or injured immediately. The remaining ones who escaped back were all changed beyond recognition, and they all left after a short time. So some people say that it was a deserted area.
It is a forbidden place under a spell, and anyone who dares to touch it will be killed."
"So awesome?" Ning Yujin immediately sat up straight and crossed her legs and asked, "Then if they are so powerful, why do they come to beg Daye?"
Murong Xuan explained: "The Thirteen Tribes of Xizhou are not a country, but are composed of hundreds or thousands of tribes. Among them, there are thirteen most prominent and powerful tribes, so they are called the Thirteen Tribes of Xizhou. The Ten Tribes of Xizhou
Although the three tribes are not enemies of the outside world, and the outside world does not dare to be enemies of them, it is said that the internal fighting among them is very serious. Often one night, one tribe rises up, and another tribe is broken up, and the situation changes from time to time.
It changes in the blink of an eye.”
Ning Yujin immediately understood: "So this Lingxi Kingdom is about to be broken up."
"Yes." Murong Xuan nodded, "Lingxi Kingdom is the smallest among the thirteen tribes, but among thousands of tribes, it is also a large tribe. And the thirteen tribes have maintained a delicate balance over the years.
, no one can touch anyone. But it seems that there has been a lot of trouble within the Thirteen tribes of Xizhou recently. Some people are ambitiously preparing to unify all the tribes. Their country is being plotted against, and the situation is not optimistic, so they come to ask Daye for help.
They lend a hand.”
"But," Ning Yujin frowned slightly and wrung her fingers, "Mr. Murong, don't you think it's strange? The Thirteenth Division of Xizhou has never had good relations with any country, and will not take the initiative to provoke anyone. It has always been
In the days of seclusion, how could the Lingxi country suddenly come to Daye for help? And as soon as they came, a large number of young and middle-aged people began to disappear at the border between the two countries. It is difficult to believe that there is no internal connection between them? "
Murong Xuan counted the days: "The troops from the Lingxi Kingdom will arrive in Shengjing the day after tomorrow. You will know what the specific situation will be by then."
"That's fine." Ning Yujin nodded, glanced at Murong Xuan's foxy eyes, and said leisurely, "Hey, it seems that vixens have been a bit rampant recently."
First, Ning Yuning, and then the Fox Lady near Mengyun Mountain, both seemed to be related to the fox.
Murong Xuan said angrily: "As long as I don't take away the soul of Miss Ning San."
Ning Yujin covered her mouth and laughed softly.
Spring is the season when all things revive, and it is also an eventful season.
Just when there was no progress in the mystery of all parties, Ning Yujin heard another breaking news.
"What? Ning Yuyan pushed Princess Xing, who was about to give birth, into the lotus pond that had just melted?!" Ning Yujin was preparing medicine. She shook the powder spread on paper in her hand and almost choked herself.
She quickly put down her things, wiped her hands on her white coat, walked out in a few steps, and asked the boy from Quan Ning's Mansion who came to report the news: "What's going on?"
Ning Yuyan, that woman, is not someone who would do such a thing. No, that means, she is not someone who would do such stupid things.
She had been married to Prince Xing's Mansion for several years, and there were many beautiful women who had harmed their unborn children through her secrets, but every time they did so without revealing anything, without making a move.
But this time, she pushed the princess into the water in front of everyone. Isn't that a way of perishing together?
What's more, she is not someone who can't hold herself back. She knows that the Empress Dowager has been staring at this side. If she dares to move, she will definitely die first. She is not that stupid.
As for those beauties before, what were their identities? She killed the baby in her belly, so the Empress Dowager turned a blind eye and passed by. These days, if the princess has nothing to do
, those beauties are sir, what does that sound like?
But this Princess Xing is different. She is the true concubine of Prince Xing. The child in her belly will be a pure-blooded little prince or princess. How long has the Queen Mother been waiting for this child? They send things to her house every three days.
, whoever dares to touch her future great-grandson is not seeking death?
Ning Yuyan didn't make any move for so long, so she obviously knew the reason. But why did such a stupid thing happen at this time?
The young man couldn't hide his anxious expression and hurriedly replied to Ning Yujin: "I don't know exactly what happened. I just heard that Princess Xing saw that the weather was better today, so she made an appointment with everyone in the house to walk in the garden.
We walked around and got together. But when everyone was talking and laughing across the lotus pond, the eldest lady suddenly stretched out her hand and pushed the princess into the pond!"
You can imagine the temperature of the water that has just melted. If a pregnant woman who is about to give birth falls in, what are the consequences?
Ning Yujin hurriedly asked: "Where is the child? Is he still there?"
The boy's expression suddenly became depressed, and he shook his head heavily.
When Ning Yujin heard this, her last hope was shattered. Once the child was gone, the Empress Dowager would definitely be angry, and Ning Yuyan was really in big trouble this time.
"Where is your eldest lady?" Ning Yujin asked Zisu while asking Zisu to take off her white coat.
The young man said: "She was arrested by the Queen Mother's decree, saying that she was going to be killed to pay for the young prince's death."
really.
No wonder Ning Zhongjian was so anxious to have people come to find her.
"You wait here now, I'll go ask about the situation first." Ning Yujin put on regular clothes, tidied herself up, shouted to the boy, and walked quickly towards Qinghui Hall.
