Chapter 58 Leaving Kyoto (please read and collect)
Takeru forty-four years, October 14th.
When the first ray of sunshine in the morning shines on the bluestone of the capital city.
The heavy city gate slowly opened, and luxurious carriages came out of the city gate, escorted by hundreds of cavalry.
The curtains at the carriage window were opened, revealing Qin Wei's gentle face.
"Master Lu, there is no need to send me off!"
Qin Wei said to Lu Tong beside the carriage.
Lu Tong looked at Qin Wei with a somewhat complicated expression and said: "Your Highness, it is extremely dangerous to go to Tianzhou. Please take care of yourself."
Qin Wei nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Mr. Lu, I am very afraid of death."
Lu Tong couldn't help but smile.
"Your Highness, take care!"
He bowed.
Qin Wei waved his hand, and then the carriage slowly drove away from the city gate.
At the same time, the six thousand soldiers who had been waiting outside the city gate slowly gathered over and followed the carriage all the way south.
Above the city gate.
Fu Chengyi looked at the carriage slowly disappearing on the official road, his eyes were deep and clear.
"Teacher, why don't you let the students go to Tianzhou with His Highness?" Fu Yuan asked doubtfully.
Fu Chengyi sighed, "Although the trip to Tianzhou is extremely dangerous, His Highness's foundation is Kyoto."
"Li Ru has gone to Tianzhou. You have to stay in Kyoto to help His Highness guard the Zhenwu Division."
Fu Yuan's expression moved slightly, with a solemn look on his face.
"The teacher is saying that someone will do something to Zhenwu Si?"
Fu Chengyi shook his head slightly and said, "I don't know either, but I can't rule out this possibility."
"His Highness is not in Kyoto now. If someone wants to target Zhenwu Si, this is the best time to do it."
Fu Yuan looked at the spreading official roads and frowned.
"Isn't it just that students are afraid that they can't be of much help?"
"And why should we help His Highness the County Prince!"
Although Fu Yuan is currently an official of the Zhenwu Division, he does not have much loyalty to Qin Wei. On the contrary, he is still somewhat dissatisfied with Qin Wei because Qin Wei placed him under Li Ru before, and now he is only a Zhenwu official.
He is just the head of the Qianliang Section of Wusi.
The reason why he wanted to go to Tianzhou was not because he wanted to do anything for Qin Wei, but just because he wanted to prove his ability in front of Qin Wei.
Fu Chengyi turned to look at him, and the cool autumn wind lifted his gown and hair.
"You're still too young!"
When Fu Yuan heard this, his brows furrowed even deeper.
"Why did the teacher say this?"
Fu Chengyi smiled, turned and left.
"We are not helping His Royal Highness, but we are helping ourselves!"
"Golden scales are just a thing in the pond. They turn into dragons when encountering wind and clouds!"
Fu Yuan stared at his back blankly, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses.
After Fu Chengyi left, he turned back and looked south again.
"Can he?"
…
The army had just advanced for more than ten miles when a cavalry troop came rushing towards them.
Marquis Li Ji of Nanyang was dressed in black armor, carrying relatives on his back, riding on a tall black horse, and came to the side of Qin Wei's carriage.
Qin Wei opened the curtains and looked at Li Ji who came suddenly with some surprise.
"Meet Your Highness!"
"Master Marquis, what is this?" Qin Wei asked.
Li Ji looked around but didn't answer.
Qin Wei said calmly: "Xiao Shunzi!"
Xiao Shunzi understood immediately and stepped back.
Li Ji then said: "Your Highness, I have something to remind Your Highness."
"What's the matter?" Qin Wei asked.
"The destruction of Yunyan Sect was done by Prince An's Mansion." Li Jidao.
Qin Wei's expression moved slightly, he nodded slightly and said, "I understand!"
Up to now, the Zhenwu Division has not found any clues about the Yunyan Sect's massacre. It's not that the Zhenwu Division is incompetent, but that the other party has hidden it too deeply.
In fact, Qin Wei didn't care much about who destroyed the Yunyan Sect, but since Li Ji came to remind him, it meant that he, the prince of the county, and the Zhenwu Division must be behind it.
Qin Wei had previously speculated that the massacre of the Yunyan Sect was directed at the Zhenwu Division, but there was no evidence and he could not judge.
Now Li Ji reminded him, obviously to prevent him from making another move from Prince An's Mansion.
When I went to Tianzhou, the situation was mixed.
The sect forces in Tianzhou are already complicated enough. If Kyoto gets involved again, the situation will become even more complicated.
"Thank you, Lord Marquis, for coming to remind me!" Qin Wei cupped his hands in the carriage.
Li Ji dismounted and bowed, "If your highness has any inconvenience in Tianzhou, you can send a message to me. I am willing to do my best."
Qin Wei raised his eyebrows and a bright smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
As the commander-in-chief of the 12th Regiment Battalion, Li Ji took such a low profile and even stated that he was willing to do whatever he could!
To be honest, Qin Wei was a little surprised.
But after being surprised, Qin Wei also understood what Li Ji was thinking.
Nothing more than placing bets and giving favors!
Although his trip to Tianzhou was extremely dangerous, danger also represented opportunities.
As long as he can gain a firm foothold in Tianzhou and establish the Zhenwu Division, then no one in Dali can resist the rise of the Zhenwu Division.
At that time, Zhenwu Si's status in the court will not be lower than that of Liubu, but even above it.
In addition, Qin Wei is also the grandson of the current Emperor Li.
If the prince dies, Qin Wei will not have the opportunity to touch the dragon chair in Shengtian Palace.
"Master Marquis, take care!"
Qin Wei chuckled lightly and then drew the curtains.
"Your Highness, take care!"
Li Ji led his horse back a few steps and watched the carriage go away.
The sun was shining brightly, the sky was clear, and a row of wild geese flew towards the south in a neat formation.
As the carriages and horses moved forward, the long official road seemed to have no end in sight, and seemed to reach directly into the sky.
…
Three hundred miles south from Kyoto you can enter the territory of Tianzhou, but the goal of Qin Wei's trip is not to enter the territory of Tianzhou, but to go to Tianzhou City, the core city of Tianzhou.
After entering the boundary of Tianzhou, you have to drive more than 1,200 miles southeast to reach Tianzhou City.
On the way, we have to pass through the Qianling Mountains and cross the Qinghan River.
The Qianling Mountain Range spreads eight thousand miles from west to east, almost across the entire Dali, and is the dividing line between the north and south of Dali.
In the Tianzhou boundary, the two thousand-mile Qianling Mountains are also known as the Blessed Land of Hundreds of Sects.
To put it simply, there are more than a hundred sects in the Qianling Mountains.
Whether it is Luoxia Mountain of the Luoxia Sect, Lishan Mountain of the Lishan Sword Sect, Sanqing Mountain where the Tianshi Mansion is located, and Moling Mountain where the Qiyuan Sect is located, they are all part of the Qianling Mountains.
Wolong Ridge is also a mountain in the Qianling Mountains, and it is also the only way from Kyoto to Tianzhou City.
At this time, there was a lot of excitement outside Wolong Ridge, which was originally cold and quiet. At the foot of the mountain, horses galloped in groups.
Thousands of warriors gathered here among the surrounding mountains.
Xuan Huang and Ding Ruoheng galloped along the official road. When they saw so many warriors around Wolong Ridge, they were both surprised.
Entering the mountains and walking along the dense forest, Xuan Huang and Ding Ruoheng became more and more frightened as they watched.
Ding Ruoheng looked at those warriors and couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Xuan Huang shook his head slightly, "Not all of them are here, but about 60 to 70% are here."
"Sixty to seventy percent means there are hundreds of sects! Isn't this formation too big?" Ding Ruoheng leaned on his bamboo stick and looked at the familiar faces in the crowd.
It’s okay to have a lot of people, the key is that it’s hard to count the experts among them.
With just a blink of an eye, Ding Ruoheng spotted several ninth-grade warriors.
"They are not really going to kill Prince Xin'an, are they?" Ding Ruoheng said with some anxiety.
They are also people who have seen the world. After all, when they were in Kyoto, they saw with their own eyes that Qin Wei led the Zhenwu Division to seal up the Chengguo Duke's Mansion and arrest it.
That arrogant attitude and domineering temperament made them all feel frightened.
To be honest, Ding Ruoheng didn't want to have any conflict with Qin Wei and Zhenwusi. Their Ancient Sword Sect just wanted to become stronger and gain more profitable industries.
Xuan Huang shook his head and said nothing. He just found a quiet place under a tree and leaned against the tree trunk calmly.
He didn't know what these people were going to do, but no matter what they did, Gu Jianmen would not interfere with them.
This time they came to Wolong Ridge just to see the excitement and to grasp the development direction of things as soon as possible.
As for the rest, the Ancient Sword Sect does not have the power to control the entire Tianzhou martial arts force.
