After staying in Guangling for more than a month, the group finally returned to the capital.
After discussing the matter briefly at Yin Yuyao's residence, the nine people decided to tell Xu Qian and the others about it.
Of course, this involves concealing the details of the timeline and the mission participants.
As for how to inform them, Chen Xiao and Chu Yanxi naturally took charge. The two split into two groups: the former went to inform Yuan Yin and Xu Ruyan and other young people, while the latter went to inform Xu Qian and Zhao Siyuan and others.
Chen Xiao brought Xu Ruyu with him, and the two of them arrived at the Grand Princess's residence. They saw that the courtyard was lush with vegetation, and sunlight filtered through the gaps in the branches and leaves, casting dappled shadows.
Yuan Yin was sitting on a stone bench, holding a book in her hands, seemingly deep in thought.
Xu Ruyan, meanwhile, was playing with the birds in the cage, laughing and chatting happily.
Upon seeing Chen Xiao arrive, Yuan Yin rose to greet him, smiling slightly, "Xiao Xiao, has come here today because of something important to discuss?"
Chen Xiao nodded slightly, and with a solemn expression, slowly recounted what he had seen and heard in Guangling, omitting the key secrets.
Upon hearing about the strange artifacts and mysterious powers, Yuan Yin and Xu Ruyan couldn't help but show surprise.
Yuan Yin stroked his chin, pondered for a moment, and said, "Such a wondrous object, if used properly, will surely bring benefits to our dynasty. However, the mysteries within it still need to be explored in detail."
Xu Ruyan chimed in, her eyes sparkling with curiosity and excitement, expressing her willingness to provide full assistance.
Xu Ruyu and Qi Yanyun simply nodded without saying a word.
On the other side, Chu Yanxi first went to the Prime Minister's residence, and then went to the Zhao residence with Xu Qian.
The hall was elegantly decorated, with the aroma of tea wafting through the air.
Zhao Siyuan was playing chess with Xu Qin when she saw Chu Yanxi enter. She stopped playing, looked up and asked, "Yanxi, judging from your expression, do you have some news to tell us?"
Chu Yanxi delivered her prepared statement in detail. Although she did not mention sensitive topics such as time travel, she vividly described the general situation of what happened in Guangling.
Upon hearing this, Xu Qin frowned slightly and said with a deep gaze, "Such a strange phenomenon exists in this world. It seems we need to make plans in advance to prevent any unforeseen changes."
Zhao Siyuan also looked worried and said softly, "Then what do you think we should do?"
Xu Qian got up and paced back and forth. After pondering for a long time, he began to discuss countermeasures with Chu Yanxi. They decided to first send people to secretly keep an eye on the movements of all parties, and at the same time gather some learned people to jointly study those ancient books and records that might be related to mysterious forces, in an attempt to find some clues and insights.
During their time in the capital, everyone continued with their daily affairs while quietly preparing for potential crises.
Chen Xiao and the others who returned from Guangling often gathered together to exchange their thoughts and discoveries.
They knew that although they had temporarily controlled the energy sphere, the mysterious power from their past life was still like a sword hanging high, threatening the peace of the Night Dynasty at any time.
However, the peaceful days did not last long.
One day, some unidentified sorcerers suddenly appeared in the capital city, spreading rumors about "the changing of the mandate of heaven" and "the arrival of mysterious forces," causing panic among the people of the city.
Upon hearing this, Chen Xiao and the others immediately realized that this was no accident and was likely closely related to Guangling's experience.
So they decided to investigate the origins and motives of these charlatans, and a new storm was quietly brewing in the capital...
