After returning from the village, Wang Yi, Ma Shun and others led the Jin Yiwei to the inn where the caravan was located. They happened to catch up with the caravan who was packing their luggage and preparing to set off. Due to the events of the past few days, the original plan of the caravan was delayed.

, so Shang Niang decided to set off and make up for the missed time on the road.

Shang Niang was very resentful towards Wang Yi who only shared a room with her once in the village. However, after thinking about it, she thought too much. After all, everyone in the mountain was in danger. Fortunately, she was not harmed.

Looking at Mrs. Shang walking into the carriage, Wang Yi sighed and said nothing. Ma Shun looked at the two people and stood there without saying a word.

"You want to leave? You don't need us anymore."

When Mrs. Shang heard what Wang Yi said, she nodded and then shook her head.

Wang Yi turned around and looked at Ma Shun with doubtful eyes.

Ma Shun explained: "Our identity has been exposed, so we found new guards for the caravan."

Wang Yi smiled hoarsely and said to Shang Niang, "Have a safe trip."

The merchant's delicate body trembled slightly, then turned around, and the caravan quietly left.

Back at the inn, everyone in Jinyiwei was sitting in the lobby, talking to each other, and stood up one after another as they watched Wang Yi walk into the inn.

Wang Yi waved his hand and motioned for everyone to sit down, then sat next to Ma Shun and asked, "What did Chang'an say?"

Ma Shun looked flattering and said, "Master Lu, we can set off as soon as we want it. This time it was delayed a lot of time."

Wang Yi took a sip of tea to relieve his heat: "Where are we going?"

Ma Shun took out a map from his pocket and slowly unfolded it. It marked the towns of Ming Dynasty and Nanchu.

"We have to pass through various official roads in Yizhou and Wuzhou, arrive at Tiannanguan Pass, and enter Nanchu from Tiannanguan Pass."

"What are we going to do in Nanchu?" Wang Yi looked at the marked route on the map. From the looks of it, we should be going deep into the hinterland of Nanchu. What are we doing to create such a big battle?

"Go and bring back a woman."

Wang Yi shouted out loud: "Just for one woman, so many of us are allowed to die."

Ma Shun surprisingly did not stop Wang Yi, but raised his tea cup, shook it, and laughed at himself: "Who knows, we can't guess the thoughts of the big shots in the court."

"All we can do is obey."

Wang Yi suddenly stood up and pointed at everyone present, "Except for the dozens of people who helped us leave before, then the twenty-five people present will have to die."

"Not necessarily dead."

Wang Yi knocked over Ma Shun's tea cup with his palm and said angrily: "It's not necessarily bullshit. Is Wu Gou from Nan Chu just a decoration?"

Ma Shun was not angry. Ma Shun touched his bald head with his hand and estimated that it should be worth a lot of money. He raised his head, looked at the furious Wang Yi, and said calmly: "I know too, but this is an order from Emperor Ming.

."

Wang Yi suddenly sat on his chair. Everyone said that the royal family was ridiculous. He didn't understand it before in Youzhou.

I didn't understand the death of Uncle Wang and everyone in Prince Qi's palace, but now I clearly feel the absurdity of Emperor Ming.

Everyone in Jinyiwei looked at the two adults who were making a fuss just now. They were all sitting there without saying a word. One of them walked out, came to Wang Yi and cupped his hands and said: "Sir, don't we know that this is

Death, but if there are a few of us before Jin Yiwei who are good people."

"Thanks to your lord's righteous speech today, we will die without regrets. We only hope that your lord can pay a few bowls of wine in front of our tombs, and we will be satisfied."

Wang Yi raised his head and looked at the elderly Jin Yiwei. He had some relief on his face and gratitude in his eyes, but more of he was helpless.

Wang Yi said in a hoarse voice: "Brother Ma, when will we set off?"

Ma Shun stood up, looked south and said, "Now."

Entering Yizhou from the border between Xiangzhou and Yizhou, the journey is not far, leaving Guanshan Town, passing through Yizhou, Wuzhou, then Qinzhou, and finally arriving at the border of the Ming Dynasty, Tiannan Pass.

As the border pass between the Ming Dynasty and Nan Chu, Tiannan Pass was heavily guarded. The general who defended the city was the King of Yue of Nan Chu who penetrated deep into the hinterland of Nan Chu alone and successfully killed the uncle of the Nan Chu Emperor despite all obstacles.

After success, he retired and returned to the Ming Dynasty.

For such a legendary general, Wang Yi naturally heard about it from Uncle King Qi, and he sincerely yearned for it. Under the leadership of Ma Shun's Jin Yiwei token, Wang Yi and Ma Shun met this general.

"I've met General Guan." Wang Yi and Ma Shun greeted him in unison.

Guan Tiannan waved his hand and said: "You don't need to be polite, what do you want me to do for you?"

Seeing Guan Tiannan's boldness, Wang Yi said without hesitation: "General Guan, a few of us have the emperor's orders to go to Nanchu. I hope General Guan will make it convenient."

After saying that, Wang Yi waved his hand to Ma Shun to hand over the letter from Chang'an to Guan Tiannan.

Guan Tiannan was wearing armor and it was not conducive for him to sit down, so he simply stood there. After hearing what Wang Yi said, he reached out and took the letter from Ma Shun, and quickly agreed to the matter.

Everyone quickly passed Tiannan Pass and entered the territory of Nanchu. Nanchu is located in the south, with many mountains and beautiful mountains everywhere, and streams are all over the mountains. However, it is close to the Ming Dynasty, so there are few big rivers, and the mountains are clustered with peaks.

The terrain is endless, with few high mountains and most of them only a few hundred feet long.

Wang Yi, Ma Shun and others disguised themselves as traveling princes and their own servants. No one troubled them along the way, and they successfully entered a city in Nanchu.

Yongchang City.

The border between the Ming Dynasty and Southern Chu is much more open than the border between the Northern Qi Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty. There are businessmen traveling between the two countries, there are also gentlemen traveling with their disciples, and there are also disciples from aristocratic families like Wang Yi who want to see the mountains and rivers of the two countries.

, it is reasonable to have countless servants around you.

After walking for a long time, Wang Yi and others walked into a tea stall to rest for a while. The tea stall was not big and there were not many people there. There were only Wang Yi and others and two men in simple clothes next to them.

"Hey, have you heard that the young city lord of Jianzhou City has fallen in love with the daughter of the leader of the Qingshui Gang, the largest gang in the city, and is now forcing the Qingshui Gang to hand over this woman."

"There are other things like this. The Qingshui Gang is a large gang, and the young city lord of Jianzhou City can easily succeed."

"Well, it's not his real father, but that uncle of our current dynasty."

The conversation between several people attracted the attention of Wang Yi and others, because the woman they were looking for was the daughter of the leader of the Qingshui Gang in Jianzhou City.

Wang Yi and Ma Shun looked at each other, and the latter nodded. Wang Yi stood up and came to the tea table where the two people were sitting next door.

"You two, could you please elaborate on what you just said?"

The two people looked up at Wang Yi, who looked curious, and asked, "Who is my little friend?"

Wang Yi made a cry, raised his hands and said: "Wang Yi, a young man, is from Guangjia City. Because he yearns for the scenery of mountains and rivers, he takes his servants to visit the mountains and rivers. I just heard the conversation between the two of them and found it quite interesting.

That’s why I came to ask the two seniors.”

The two of them suddenly realized that it looked like another prodigal son was spending his family's money on sightseeing tours.

Wang Yi looked at the little tea left on the two tables and asked the waiter, "Waiter, bring me a pot of good tea."

"Okay, sir."

When the two of them saw Wang Yi being so generous, they no longer tried to hide it and started talking about it openly.

"The city lord of Jianzhou City used to be very poor. He only had his sister to depend on him for life. But he got into the palace for some reason and was very favored in the palace. He was named a noble concubine a few years ago, so his

The status has just gone up with the tide."

Another person said with some envy: "He has a good life, we can't compare."

"Well, if you give birth to a son who does evil, his aunt would have died countless times if it weren't for it."

The man continued: "The city lord of Jianzhou City did something a few years ago and was named the city lord. Now the young city lord has become even more lawless. He relies on his family's power to oppress the people and does all kinds of evil in the fish and meat village. Fortunately, the young city lord has become even more lawless.

The Qingshui Gang came into being, and the gang leader Xiao Tianfan's cultivation in the Star Lord Realm shocked the father and son, and this gave Jianzhou City a short-term peace."

"Who says it's not the case? Some time ago, the gang leader Xiao Tianfan was critically ill, and the gang leader's daughter Xiao Wenxuan was ordered to take over the Qingshui Gang. However, without the intimidation of the old gang leader, it is not as good as before."

"Now that the young city lord has fallen in love with Xiao Wenxuan again, the city lord comes to propose marriage in person. It will be a disaster."

After the two people finished speaking, they sighed again and again, shook their heads, and lamented the dangers of time.

After hearing this, Wang Yi agreed a few times, then left and sat back next to Ma Shun.

"It seems that our Miss Xiao is not in a good situation." Ma Shun sighed, touching his bald head.

Wang Yi nodded, "But what I'm more worried about is whether she will go back with us."
