On the territory of the Dajin Dynasty, Luoyang belongs to Quanzhou, while Sunset Valley is in Jiangzhou. The two are thousands of miles apart. If Xia Sheng was the only one, he would only take three days to arrive with the speed after Emperor Jiang Rongling.

But now, with the accompanying imperial guards and more than 20 honor guards, even if they are not stopping and going day and night, it will take at least five days.

By that time, the spring examination was almost over.

Just as Xia Sheng said at the beginning, he did not go to participate in the spring exam, but to report the death.

But what many people were surprised was that Xia Sheng did not leave the capital secretly, but left the capital with great fanfare, as if turning himself into a lighthouse, attracting all enemies to come to him.

No one knows where Xia Sheng comes from.

Could it be that he really thought that his identity as a inspector in Jiangzhou could ensure his safety along the way?

Or did he think that just Kang Wuwei could withstand the invasion of wind and rain from all directions?

But what is even more surprising is that everything was really as Xia Sheng expected. At least there was no accident between the middle of the road from Luoyang City to Jinling City.

The people from Tianxing Academy must be focusing on the spring examination, so they did not appear.

The prince may have been intimidated by Xia Sheng in the palace, so there was no movement.

Of course, even he himself did not understand the grudge between Tianxingyuan and Xia Sheng, so naturally the world would not know the twists and turns, and would not be confused by the people of Tianxingyuan standing by and watching.

Only His Highness Ning and the Ye family knew about the hatred between the prince and Xia Sheng, and probably wouldn't be revealed, so ordinary people wouldn't be surprised by the prince's resolute rebellion.

But... why are there no people from the Pei family?

Could it be that because Jinling City is too close to Kyoto, the Pei family is difficult to deal with?

The fact that Pei Yuanji died at Xia Sheng's hands shocked the entire world of cultivation and had long been spread throughout every corner of the Dajin Dynasty. This time, Xia Sheng left Beijing, I don't know how many eyes were staring at the masters of the Pei family. I want to see what they would do.

Only a few people would think that it is precisely because of this that it is even more inconvenient for the Pei family to do it!

Once something happens to Xia Sheng, the first thing people think of is the Pei family!

No matter whether the Pei family is taking open and attacked secretly, it is impossible to escape the eyes of the world.

In this way, how could the Pei family take action?

Could it be that they really dare to bear the blame for their murder of the imperial officials?

Could it be that their Pei family really wants to rebel?

Now that things have come, no one will doubt Emperor Jin’s kindness to Xia Sheng anymore.

As soon as Pei Yuanji died, Emperor Jin appointed Xia Sheng as the Imperial College. As soon as Xia Sheng left the capital, he had more golden seals for inspection in Jiangzhou. If this was not called the emperor's grace, then the world would be blind.

No one knew how Xia Sheng did it, but at least they understood that Xia Sheng is no longer the country boy from Baima Town, or even the boy standing alone in Guihua Lane with a sword. Now he can't move.

Xia Sheng entered Jinling City very smoothly. Although he was sincerely invited by the city lord Lu Botao, he still did not attend the dinner or stayed in the luxurious mansion prepared by Lu Botao. Instead, he found a small inn that looked deserted and lived in.

It’s not that Xia Sheng is so arrogant or does not understand the worldly ways, but that some things are difficult to do in places with many people and eyes.

For example, together with Kang Wuwei, get rid of the two little tails that have been following him.

After nightfall, Xia Sheng walked out of the room slowly and knocked on the door of the upper room next door.

The person who opened the door was a pretty girl. She looked like she was about ** years old. After seeing Xia Sheng, a hint of panic flashed in her eyes, and she subconsciously clasped the Xiu Jian on her waist.

And behind the girl was still standing a white-haired old man, who was slamming his forehead with great anger: "I'm careless!"

Xia Sheng looked up at the two strangers, the old and the young, with an extremely calm eyes, but a bright smile appeared on his face: "You two have been with you all the way, aren't you going to introduce yourself?"

The little girl blushed and she stammered: "What...what...what goes along the way...I. I don't know what you are talking about..."

Seeing the other party's helpless appearance, Xia Sheng suddenly felt a little funny and said, "Aren't you here to kill me? As a killer, it's too amateur. Let's go back and change to someone else."

Hearing this, the little girl immediately held the sword in her hand tightly, stretched her neck straight, and said indignantly: "You...you bite Lu Bin, don't... you don't know, don't know the good people's hearts! We...we are obviously..."

Xia Sheng raised his eyebrows secretly, wanting to hear what else the girl could say, but he never thought that at this moment, the old man pulled her behind her, looked at the little girl with a angrily look, and then sighed: "Mr. Xia, please believe that our grandfather and grandson have no malice."

As soon as the old man appeared, Xia Sheng subconsciously narrowed his eyes and unconsciously took a half-step back.

At the same time, a loud sword roar rose from behind Xia Sheng, and a dim yellow sword light fell in front of Xia Sheng like a sunset, and then rushed towards the old man!

Kang Wuwei took action.

Now Kang Wuwei is only one line away from the position of Sword Master, so even the old man was a little surprised by the sharpness of this sword, but it was just a little surprised.

The next moment, the old man protected the little girl behind him with one hand and danced the mottled robe on his body with the other hand, but he didn't see clearly what he had done. He actually led Kang Wuwei's sword to the roof.

boom!

The sword energy storm exploded immediately, and immediately lifted the roof of the second-floor inn without leaving any tiles. I don’t know how many people woke Qingmeng up, and looked up at the bright moon above their heads in horror.

But after the dust and smoke dissipated, the old man's eyes suddenly solidified.

Because where is there a half-person figure in front of him?

Whether it was Xia Sheng or Kang Wuwei, they had disappeared into this vast night.

So the old man could only glar at the little girl helplessly and said in a deep voice: "It's all you! Now, let's let others run away!"

The little girl rubbed the corner of her clothes with great grievance and murmured: "If it weren't... Grandpa revealed... and revealed his breath, where would they...?

"You dare to talk back!"

As the old man said this, the little girl's eyes were filled with tears, and endless sadness surged into her heart, and she sobbed: "Grandpa... Grandpa is fierce again... Yue'er... Yue'er doesn't want grandpa..."

Seeing this, the old man was in a mess and hugged the little girl and said repeatedly: "Oh, it's all that grandpa is bad, it's grandpa's fault, okay? Yue'er doesn't cry, doesn't cry, but she won't be beautiful if she cries too much. When grandpa catches the brat back and lets him ride Yue'er every day, okay?"

Yue'er puffed her cheeks and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes hard. Finally, she finally calmed down her grievances. Then she nodded and said softly: "Okay."
