Among this group of people, besides Tong Guan, there was also a carriage. This carriage was very ordinary, but Chu Yi and Tong Guan were all riding horses, so there was an extra carriage.
In the carriage, a figure was sitting cross-legged, wearing a yellow robe. His noble aura made it obvious at a glance that this person's identity was definitely extraordinary.
Even Chu Yi didn't know that there would be such a person in his company until almost a stick of incense.
It was when the other party showed up that Chu Yi and others knew that they were going to Tianshan and that the royal family had sent such a royal member to accompany them.
It was also at this time that Chu Yi realized that the royal family was not as simple as he imagined. After all, unlike Tong Guan and others, Chu Yi was from this world and knew a lot about the common sense in this world.
Chu Yi seems to have integrated into this world, but after all, the time is too short, and sometimes Chu Yi does not know some common sense issues.
Just like this member of the royal family who suddenly joined the team, Tong Guan was just stunned for a moment when he saw the carriage, with a look of understanding on his face, obviously knowing the identity of the other party.
But Chu Yi didn't know, but he couldn't show it, he could only act like a child, keeping his expression secret.
The group of people left the capital, determined their direction, and headed all the way towards the Tianshan Mountains.
The journey from the capital to Tianshan is thousands of miles away and cannot be completed in one or two days.
Chu Yi was very organized no matter what he did. As soon as he left the capital, Chu Yi made a simple plan for the trip.
After all, Chu Yi is the leader of this team. Even in the carriage, nobles from the royal family will not go against Chu Yi under normal circumstances.
After some arrangements by Chu Yi, a group of dozens of people were not greatly affected even though the journey was dusty, and they headed towards the Tianshan Mountains smoothly.
In about ten days, Chu Yi and his party had already crossed the Yellow River. This time, Chu Yi and his party’s destination was the Piaomiao Peak of Tianshan Mountain. In this world, Piaomiao Peak of Tianshan Mountain is the center of the Xiaoyao Sect. Chu Yi and his party
The target that people are looking for is also at Piaomiao Peak of Tianshan Mountain.
However, Tianshan Piaomiao Peak is not located in the Song Dynasty. Instead, it is located in the Western Regions. It is thousands of miles away and even crosses the Xixia Kingdom.
The Song Dynasty and Xixia have been fighting for so many years, and the hatred between the two sides can be said to be as deep as the sea. After crossing Xixia, you enter the Western Regions. There are many small countries in the Western Regions, and it is even more chaotic.
Among the group of people, to be honest, the only one who knew something about Xixia and the Western Regions was Tong Guan. When entering Xixia, Chu Yi paid great attention to some of Tong Guan's opinions.
If they say they are eye-catching, they are also eye-catching. If they say they are not eye-catching enough, they are not very eye-catching. In order to conceal their identity, Chu Yi and his group are pretending to be businessmen.
Commerce in the Song Dynasty was extremely developed, especially coastal maritime trade, which supported the prosperous economy of the Song Dynasty. Similarly, commerce on land was also extremely prosperous.
I don’t know how many caravans are driven by attractive profits, and no matter whether there are any dangers along the thousands of miles, they are just giving it a try, in case they can successfully go back and forth.
, the net worth can be increased at least dozens of times.
It is conceivable that under this temptation, there will always be people who form caravans one after another and head to the Western Regions.
Tong Guan has followed Li Xian in the Northwest for many years. When it comes to understanding the Northwest, no one can match Tong Guan. Chu Yi learned a lot of information about the Western Region from Tong Guan's mouth.
Tong Guan has also never entered the Western Regions, but since he is in the northwest, he still knows some information about the Western Regions very well.
Especially for Xixia, Tong Guan showed that he knew Xixia better than some Xixia people. With Tong Guan's guidance and their own disguise, even in Xixia territory, there was no problem.
On this day, Chu Yi and his party stopped at an inn to rest. In fact, the realm of Xixia was not much different from that of the Song Dynasty. After all, the predecessor of Xixia was independent from the Song Dynasty, and even the people in Xixia were like those in the Central Plains.
The people are ordinary.
Xixia originated from the Huangchao Rebellion in the late Tang Dynasty. Li Sigong was named General Zuowuwei by the imperial court, and Quan Xia Suiyin was responsible for the affairs. Later, the Huangchao rebellion was put down, and Li Sigong was named Duke of Xia. From then on, he occupied the five states and established the Song Dynasty.
As before, Xixia surrendered to the Central Plains court and received the imperial edict from the Song court. However, in the tenth year of the Song Dynasty, Li Yuanhao, who succeeded the Xia Duke, took up the banner, broke away from the Song court, established a dynasty, defeated the Song court and the Liao Dynasty, and became a tripartite state of the Three Kingdoms.
Song and Liao called it Xixia Kingdom.
However, not long ago, the Song Dynasty once again raised troops to conquer Xixia. In the Battle of Pingxia City, Xixia was defeated. The Song Dynasty completely controlled the Hengshan area, and Xixia was in an increasingly difficult situation.
In other words, Xixia is in a very bad situation now, especially in the war with the Song Dynasty. It suffered heavy losses in terms of soldiers and gold and silver. In addition, in Xixia, Empress Dowager Xiaoliang was in power, and the court was in constant turmoil.
In the inn room, Chu Yi looked through the news about Xixia collected by the Imperial City Division. It can be said that the tentacles of the Imperial City Division are all over the world. Whether it is Xixia or Daliao, although there are not many people in the Imperial City Division,
But they also deployed a lot of manpower.
This inn was opened by people from the Imperial City Division, so Chu Yi could naturally get first-hand information about Xixia here.
"The Queen Mother has exclusive power, the Queen Mother Xiaoliang, tsk tsk..."
Although Chu Yi is not sure, in this world that has obviously changed a lot, as the Empress Dowager of Xixia, Empress Dowager Xiaoliang who holds the political power of the Xixia Dynasty is the disciple of the Xiaoyao Sect, Li Qiushui, but according to the Imperial City Division
According to the information collected, the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang is indeed related to Piaomiao Peak of Tianshan Mountain.
Judging from this point of view, Empress Dowager Xiaoliang is most likely that disciple of the Xiaoyao Sect, Li Qiushui.
The sky was gradually getting darker, and the group had already become accustomed to the arrangements along the way. Everyone went to rest early, leaving a few people to take turns taking care of the horses.
Suddenly the ground shook, and the sound of horse hooves was heard. The inn, which had been turned off, was suddenly awakened, and candles were lit one after another.
Some inn guests looked outside, and through the windows they could see a group of more than a dozen Xixia soldiers outside the inn.
These people were riding on tall horses, holding torches in their hands and blocking the door of the inn, like menacing gods.
The owner of the inn is a member of the Imperial City Division, his name is Luo Zheng. At this moment, Luo Zheng saw the cavalry soldiers outside the inn door and couldn't help but his expression changed slightly, and he whispered: "No, these people are from Xixia Yipintang."
Because they have Empress Dowager Xiaoliang as their backer, they can be said to be domineering in Xixia, and no one dares to provoke them..."
Chu Yi looked at the dozen or so Xixia Yipintang soldiers outside the door, and was quite curious in his heart. Why did these people come? It is unlikely that the people from Xixia Yipintang came over to rob an inn. If so, Xixia Yipintang
It's too bad.
At this moment, a group of people from the Xixia First Class Hall outside the inn could be heard shouting: "People in the inn, listen, we are from the Xixia First Class Hall, and we are here just to capture the Song Army spies."
While he was speaking, he could hear this man shaking his horsewhip and saying: "Listen here, spies of the Song Army. I will count to three. If you are willing to come out, that's all. If not, everyone in the inn will be slaughtered."
!”
Obviously, many people staying in the inn never dreamed that a disaster would fall from the sky like this. Especially when they heard that the general of Xixia Yipintang said that he would kill all the people in the inn, everyone was naturally panicked.
.
At this moment, someone even shouted in fear and anger: "Song Army spy, you are trying to kill everyone, why don't you get out quickly."
"Get out, get out quickly, you are seeking death yourself, don't drag us down!"
Several Imperial City Department personnel standing next to Chu Yi looked at the movement outside the inn, especially when many people were shouting for the Song Army spies to come out on their own and couldn't help but clenched their fists.
Chu Yi looked at the people outside the inn with a half-smile. At this moment, a figure strode over with steady steps and a bit of bloody evil aura.
What a big man. He has thick eyebrows, big eyes, a strong and straight body, and a chilling aura. At first glance, he is the killer of the army.
"Ruda is here, the Western Xia dogs will not hurt innocent people!"
The tough man stood tall and straight, walked out of the inn without fear, and stood in front of everyone in the Xixia Yipin Hall. He stared fearlessly at the people opposite and shouted: "The person you want to arrest is me. Your Lu family grandfather is here."
So, if you have the ability, come and get me!"
Ruda is only about twenty years old, and he already has a somewhat domineering air.
A tragic aura spread from Ruda's body. As a subordinate of the old man, Luda's own fortune is not small. Now, even if he is facing more than a dozen people from Xixia Yipintang, Ruda still has fear on his face.
color.
The people of Xixia Yipin Hall followed Ruda all the way, and the two sides even had the experience of fighting. Therefore, the people of Xixia Yipintang naturally knew how good Luda was. Seeing Luda come out, some even took a step back subconsciously.
Relieve the fears in your heart.
"What a tough guy. This man's qualifications are not bad. At such an age, he has a strength comparable to that of a master. If he can be trained well, he will definitely be a strong general who charges into battle, and that would be great.
"
At this moment, a noble man in casual clothes came over, glanced at Chu Yi and said.
Zhao Gu is a member of the royal family. Because of his excellent natural aptitude, he was selected to enter the royal clan house. He received excellent teachings since he was a child. There are only a few of these people in each generation, but each of them can practice spiritually.
