Ningzhou is a continent in the south of Daqian Kingdom, and its capital, Ningtai City, was once the capital of Southern Wei Kingdom.
After the Unification War, Nanwei was destroyed. Ningtai City was renovated and the scale of the city walls was reduced.
But even so, it is still an important place.
Of course, these are all for the human race. For immortal cultivators, no matter how high or hard the city wall is, it is useless.
The entire Ningzhou is crisscrossed by water bodies, and floods occur every spring.
Daqian State was originally a small country in the north, and it only accumulated experience in water conservancy management in the past two years.
But this year is particularly difficult because many people are sick due to their participation in flood control labor.
Not only that, some people in Ningzhou were also infected, and various rumors gradually began to spread.
When Xu Mochen and his party arrived at the border of Ningzhou, they took a boat and continued their journey.
Connected by waterways, you can directly reach Ningtai City.
In the hazy fog, Xu Mochen looked at the city in front of him with emotion in his heart.
Gu Jinge, this long-lost name, is swirling in my heart again.
The right and wrong of that year can no longer be explained clearly. Xu Mochen lamented that if he had known that there were immortal cultivators behind this world, he might have made different choices.
"Sir," Tang Derun asked for instructions, "when we arrive, where should we start?"
"Shen Changfeng must know our whereabouts," Xu Mochen pondered, "That means Prince Ning knows.
They will find us naturally without us taking action."
Stopping with silence is sometimes a tactic.
The ship docked, and after walking for a while, they entered the city to check their identities. Xu Mochen and others officially entered Ningtai City.
Due to abundant rain in the south, the construction of houses is different from that in the north. In addition, there are many rivers in Ningtai City, where boats travel, and there are also arch bridges, which give it a unique charm.
"Twenty-Four Bridges on a moonlit night," Xu Mochen sighed, "that's what I'm talking about."
Although the world is different, there are still many things in common.
Tang Derun couldn't help but nod, Your Majesty, this is a poem.
Shen Zhining behind him couldn't help but laugh. As time-travelers, they couldn't recite poems and make sentences by themselves, but there was no problem in picking up people's wisdom.
After finding an inn and settling in, Tang Derun went out to inquire about the news.
The Embroidered Clothes Envoys are an elite team created by Xu Mochen. There are hidden stakes all over Daqian. Tang Derun went to contact them.
The most gorgeous building in Ningtai City is undoubtedly Prince Ning’s Mansion.
In the hall of the mansion, a middle-aged man was holding a document in his hand and reading it.
This man looks somewhat similar to Xu Mochen. He has a gray beard on his face and looks very majestic. He is none other than Ning Wang Xu Chenghao.
In front of him, several staff members stood with their hands hanging.
"This is a letter from Shen Changfeng." Xu Chenghao shook the letter and handed it to his staff. "Read it. It tells about His Majesty's whereabouts. He should have arrived at Ningtai City."
The staff rushed forward and quickly read the letter.
One of the aides frowned: "According to reports from the capital, His Majesty uprooted the Metropolitan Procuratorate not long ago and established a national medical center. He is very bold."
"People from the Metropolitan Procuratorate are also cultivators of immortality," another staff member expressed his opinion, "Master Shen may not be sure of His Majesty's abilities, but he wants us, Prince Ning's Mansion, to serve as an outpost."
"In fact, it is not difficult to infer that His Majesty must have used the national destiny." The staff member in front raised his beard. "Now there is a plague in Ningzhou. The purpose of his coming to deal with it is to increase his popularity and supplement his national destiny."
From a theoretical analysis point of view, this kind of reasoning is reasonable.
"We must be careful in our actions recently," Xu Chenghao nodded. "The palace's weapons must not be exposed. Shen Changfeng made a mistake when he wanted to use my hand to deal with the emperor.
The descendants of Nanwei Kingdom are related."
"Yes," the staff reported, "they and His Majesty are enemies of the country and the family."
"Reveal the emperor's whereabouts," Xu Chenghao sneered, "Since your majesty is coming from afar, I will definitely entertain you with all my heart."
"Understood, my subordinates will start to deal with it immediately," the staff asked for instructions, "Then Master Shen..."
"Let's just say that I know about it. When I ascend to the 95th position in the future, I will definitely not forget him." Xu Chenghao waved his hand.
Several staff members were ordered to resign.
Xu Chenghao stood up: "Now that Your Majesty has come to Ningtai City, it will be difficult to escape unscathed.
This is not your capital!"
Deep in the mountains outside Ningtai City, there is a dilapidated temple.
The leader is a girl in crimson clothes, who is reading a thin letter.
"Sister Zisu, what does this letter say?" a man asked.
"The letter from Prince Ning says that Emperor Gou has arrived in Ningtai City." The girl named Zi Su clenched her teeth and crumpled the letter into a ball.
"Emperor Gou is here?"
"Sister Zisu, do you know where he is? Let's go kill him."
"The revenge for destroying the country can finally be avenged."
"Over the years, we have given up our human bodies and entered the Netherworld. This is an opportunity we have been waiting for."
"Yes, there are so many masters in the capital that we can't kill them. Now when we get to Ningtai City, that's our territory!"
The crowd is excited.
Zi Su waved her hand: "Don't act rashly, you may not be able to believe what Prince Ning says.
If Emperor Gou was so easy to deal with, he would have taken action himself, why would he reveal the information to us?"
She also has her own information, and she has heard a lot about things in the capital.
"What should we do?"
Zisu thought for a while: "Keep an eye on his whereabouts, and I'll find an opportunity to test his depth.
However, although this matter is important, it is not a top priority. The exotic fairy mountain mentioned last time has been found."
"Yes," one person reported, "We checked a lot of clues. According to rumors, that exotic fairy mountain will appear in May and June every thirty years."
"In the exotic fairy mountain, there is the legendary Soul-Condensing Flower, which is the only hope to save Her Highness the Princess." Zi Su clenched her fists, "As long as Her Highness the Princess comes back, there is hope for the restoration of the country."
Everyone said yes.
"Go," Zi Su waved, "What you need to pay attention to is that since you have entered the immortal way, you are different from ordinary people. You must be particularly careful in your actions to avoid being caught by immortal cultivators from other realms.
This world of ten directions also has the rules of the world of ten directions."
Everyone took the order and left.
After everyone left, Zisu slowly breathed a sigh of relief. Her consciousness turned and she came to the Buddha statue.
The hidden door opened, and she stepped into the hidden place inside.
But here is a sea of peach blossoms, with pink flowers floating in the breeze.
In the forest, there is a gorgeous coffin, and inside lies a woman in red with a life-like face.
There is a fairy pill on this woman's lips, but it has almost melted away and is only the size of a mung bean.
"Your Highness, this servant is incompetent," Zisu cried, "but fortunately, we finally have a clue.
Please hold on for a while longer, and I will definitely find the Soul-Condensing Grass and let your soul grow again.
Then I will take Emperor Gou's head and present it to you in person."
The hatred of the country and the family must be avenged.
