Xiao Moyan carried Ji Xingzhi on his back and chose a random road. Apart from meeting a few soldiers, there was no one else on the road.
Hearing Ji Xingzhi's question, Xiao Moyan did not say what the specific situation was, but just said in general terms: "Lizhou will be fine."
Hearing this, Ji Xingzhi seemed to be relieved and said, "That's good."
After a pause, Ji Xingzhi continued, "Such a big thing happened in Lizhou. I wonder if my treacherous father and mother know about it..."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Moyan whispered, "They are in Lizhou right now. If you miss them, I will take you back now."
Upon hearing this, Ji Xingzhi hurriedly shook her head and said, "No. My idiot dad is here for me. I can't help much if I go back now."
Moreover, she believed in the emperor's uncle. If the emperor's uncle said nothing would happen, then nothing would happen.
Xiao Moyan said nothing, carrying Ji Xingzhi on his back and walking silently on the quiet street.
After a while, Ji Xingzhi's voice slowly rang out: "Uncle, let's go to Yuzhou."
Xiao Moyan: "Okay."
The two of them chatted casually, with Ji Xingzhi asking questions and Xiao Moyan answering almost all the time.
The two people were talking about some insignificant things before, the kind of ordinary greetings they would have when meeting, but for some reason, the topic suddenly changed.
"Uncle, what's going on with those fires?" Ji Xingzhi asked.
Xiao Moyan paused and said, "That's an illusion."
Illusion, as the name suggests, is fake and does not exist.
"How could there be an illusion in the Shuizhou Palace? That illusion must be powerful, right?" Even though it was fake, the injuries were real. If he died in there, he would have truly died...
When she thought of this, Ji Xingzhi couldn't help but feel a little scared. She unconsciously hugged Xiao Moyan's neck tightly and put her face in the crook of Xiao Moyan's neck.
Xiao Moyan nodded slightly, a cold look flashing in his eyes: "Well, maybe it was left here a long time ago."
This illusion is actually not very strong, but for ordinary people, it will probably take a lifetime to get out of it. Xiao Moyan knows that this illusion was set up in the dungeon by someone waiting for him. The illusion has no effect on him, but it is fatal enough to Xing Zhi.
The other party's original intention was probably to use Xingzhi to threaten him, but for some reason, the other party did not show up, so he was able to easily break the illusion with Xingzhi.
Ji Xingzhi did not believe Xiao Moyan's answer. If it was left behind a long time ago, Shuizhou would have unified the world with the help of that illusion, and Shui Lianche would not have had to go through the trouble of bringing people to Guanshui Peak.
Half a month later.
Lizhou imperial capital.
The once prosperous and bustling capital was now engulfed in flames of war, with smoke and devastation everywhere.
On the city wall, Ling Lan was holding a red tasseled spear, wearing black armor and a black helmet. The wind on the city wall was so strong that it made the blood-like cloak behind him whistle.
The black flag fluttered in the wind, and the two golden characters of Lizhou sparkled in the sun.
Ling Lan lowered his eyes and looked at the Luo army preparing for the next round of attack under the city wall, his face solemn. The enemy army was about to break through the city gate, and there was still no news from the emperor and the regent. Although the emperor and the empress dowager had returned to take charge of the situation, they summoned everyone in the city into the palace, saying that the thousand-year-old imperial capital was about to be destroyed, and asked everyone to go into the palace to see the splendor of the Lizhou Imperial Palace.
All civil and military officials strongly opposed this, but the emperor insisted on his own way, and the officials had no choice but to let it go.
