Three days later, Tsushima Mansion welcomed a group of special guests.
"Has the owner really changed here?" Nai Hong rode on the horse and looked around in surprise. . Even though she had confirmed it several times with the audio device beforehand, she still found it a bit unbelievable.
After a war, a city often becomes devastated, and people do not dare to go out at will at such times, lest disaster fall from the sky. Desertedness and depression are generally the main tone after the war. But here, Nai Hong saw a completely different scene. Not only were there residents on the street, but most of them were smiling, as if it was a festival. Not only was the entire city not affected by the war, but it was more vibrant than other places. exuberant.
"Shouldn't you and I have been used to this kind of counterintuitive situation?" Wuyue Yaoyao showed a rare smile. Since taking over the position of queen, the pressure she has endured has been increasing day by day. The capture of Nagi Qing previously made her sleepless at night. It was not until the news that someone escaped from prison in Fuya Mansion came that she regained hope. It had been a long time since she had experienced this kind of moment where she could relax her heartstrings a little.
"Master Wuyue, let's hurry up," Nai Hong waved her riding whip impatiently, "Nai Qing is still waiting for us to rescue him!"
Wuyueyao nodded and urged everyone to speed up and follow.
After all, that was her wish too.
Soon, the great witch and her entourage met Xia Fan, Ning Wanjun and others in the city lord's pavilion.
This was the second meeting between the two parties after half a year, but the location was changed to Yama Island.
Seeing Xia Fan, Wuyue Yao couldn't help but feel ripples in her heart. It was this man who reached out to give her a hand when she was in the most critical moment, and helped Queen Qianye escape from the desperate situation of national subjugation. Although he has changed places now, he is still his biggest support.
May took a deep breath, temporarily suppressed his personal emotions, and went straight to the point and made a request to rescue Nagi Qing.
"In other words, you only know that someone escaped from prison, but you are not sure that person is Xue Qing?" Xia Fan pondered after hearing what happened.
"I can't say I'm 100% sure, but based on the clues from all parties, the possibility that Xue Qing has escaped from prison is as high as 80%." Wuyueyao said frankly, "The reason why we can't confirm it is because we can't think of any reason for the temple to take action. Rescue people. Now the place is also heavily surrounded by Yuanjiu troops, and our manpower cannot get close at all. Judging from the situation, it is only a matter of time before they forcefully enter the temple to search."
What she was most fortunate about was that she did not give up the extremely slim hope and sent a team headed by Nagi Hong to sneak into the city to find out news about the captives. It was this move that allowed her to learn about the prison break at the first time. When Nagi Hong brought the news back, there was also news from Jinxia's side that the landing was imminent, and Wushuyuan immediately made the decision to rush to Tsushima Mansion.
"That's it." Xia Fan nodded. Although the comments of the witnesses that day proved that the person who escaped was very close to the Green-faced Ghost, considering that Queen Yama had no relationship with the Fumifu Temple, the other party did not say anything. However, for the current Jinxia Army, whether Xue Qing is in the temple or in prison will have no essential impact. As long as the green-faced ghost is still alive, he will definitely be able to fish people out.
"Don't worry, I will go and handle this matter personally." Xia Fan promised.
The two places are not too far apart and can be reached within a day using the Feilong Express. If he was only allowed to go, he would still be a little worried, but if he followed him, he would be safe.
May took a long breath.
"Thank you, Mr. Xia!"
"Xu Qing is also Jin Xia's friend. Naturally, we cannot sit back and watch her fall into the hands of the enemy." Ning Wanjun comforted her, "You should have told us about this earlier, so that we could act at sea."
Wu Yue showed a hint of shame, "I have caused you too much trouble. Even raising troops to march against King Dongsheng was a decision I made alone."
"Do you regret doing this?" Xia Fan interrupted.
Issei thought for a moment and slowly shook his head, "Even if I had to do it again, I would still make the same decision. From the moment I returned to Yama Island, I felt that change was imminent."
"Then Jinxia's help can't be considered troublesome," he smiled slightly, "Besides, all these aids come at a price."
Wuyue Yaoyao said seriously, "Please tell me. As long as it is a price that Yamaguo can afford, I am willing to bear it."
Xia Fan and the princess looked at each other, paused for a while and then replied, "First, you have to become the new Evil Horse Queen."
The big witch couldn't help but be stunned, "But Lord Chiba"
"I know that you are loyal to Queen Qianye and are not willing to seize the power from her, but doing so will put her on the fire and give those aristocratic families and wealthy families an opportunity to take advantage of it." Ning Wanjun Then he said, "I was also born in the palace, and I have seen this kind of thing all the time. Power should be in the hands of the right people. If you become the queen, you will naturally be able to protect Qianye. What's more, you have this qualification, and it is nothing more than a wish. Just don’t want to.”
"The reason why Jin Xia is willing to support Evil Horse is obviously for your sake." Xia Fan crossed his arms, "If you still want to wait until the matter is completed to return the power to Queen Qianye, then who will guarantee that Jin What is the interest of Malaysia? Who will supervise the execution of the covenants signed in the past? If we continue to break them, we will be disrupted. You should be able to understand this truth."
"No, Lord Satsuki, Your Majesty Satsuki, I also support you in doing this." Nagi Hong said seriously, "Although Lord Chiba has the kindness to raise and take care of you, she cannot change the current situation of Yama Country. Now she can do it You are the only one who can do this."
Wuyueyao was silent for a long time this time.
When she raised her head again, the only look in her eyes was determination, "I understand."
There is no turning back from this road.
She also had a vague feeling that when she took that step, the relationship between the two would never return to the past.
"Very good." Xia Fan nodded happily, "As long as you convey this intention, I think your followers will have more confidence."
"Actually, I came here for another thing." Yueyue Yao calmed down and turned the topic back to the current war. "My people have basically been able to determine the eastward destination of the Seven Star Privy Council Mansion, or Said they had arrived."
"Where is it?" Xia Fan asked.
"Yueying Temple in Rising Sun Mountain."
"Wait a minute, why is Qixing going to war like this just because of a temple?" Ning Wanjun said in disbelief.
"We also found it incredible. We even thought for a time that there was a problem with the intelligence. But another piece of news is worth considering." Wu Yue paused, "That is, Chishan City where An's family is located is being besieged by the Privy Council, but King Dongsheng not only did not In order to rescue, we also sent a force to the south. Judging from the route, it can also reach the Rising Sun Mountain area."
