Chapter 722 Assassination

"Nuanyu?"

Lin Qingluo raised her brows lightly, the jade was smooth and warm in her hands, and it felt very good in the hand.

"Um."

Lin Yixuan's obsidian-like eyes sparkled: "A tribute from a small country attached to the southwest."

"Keep it to yourself."

Lin Qingluo held his hand subconsciously, and put Nuanyu back into his palm.

"My sister is in good health and is not afraid of the cold. On the contrary, it is you who have suffered from heart and lung injuries. You need to pay special attention to not get sick from the cold."

"I still have."

Lin Yixuan refused to take it, and pushed Nuanyu back, his delicate face was full of seriousness: "This is specially reserved for my sister."

"All right."

Seeing that he insisted on this, Lin Qingluo felt a warm current rushing through her heart, and patted his head gently: "Since it is Yixuan's wish, my sister will accept it."

"Uh-huh."

Lin Yixuan's big eyes were shining, he leaned forward, and rubbed his forehead affectionately on his sister's shoulder.

Lin Qingluo's eyebrows and eyes were gentle: "Go to bed early tonight, and gather at the gate of the palace at Chenshi tomorrow morning."

"Um."

Lin Yixuan obediently agreed, his obsidian-like eyes sparkled a little bit.

On the last day of April, Lin Qingluo bid farewell to his relatives again. Accompanied by his two elder brothers, Lin Jinlong and Lin Jinpeng, he took Lin Yixuan and four apprentices with him.

A giant eagle soaring at a height of 10,000 meters, and a clever little leopard left the town's mansion and embarked on a journey of exploration to the wild areas of the Western Regions.

The terrain in the west is complex, with plateaus and basins intersecting each other.

From south to north, the Xiling Mountains separate Fengqi from the grasslands and the countries in the southwest, forming a natural barrier of steep mountains.

Lin Qingluo and his party headed northwest along the official road, passed through the Lujiang River Basin, climbed over mountains and mountains, and came to the Xiling Mountains.

During the war in the northwest, the Qiyan light cavalry drove straight in. On the northern edge of the Xiling Mountains, the three border cities with no dangerous barriers to defend were besieged.

The frontier people fled their homes with their families, crossed the mountains, and migrated southeast.

Eight people and eight fast horses walked along the mountain road, and saw many fleeing border residents along the way.

The old and weak women and children were yellow, emaciated, and unkempt. They forced their sick bodies to cross mountains and ridges, suffering unspeakably.

"The southwestern frontier army was tyrannized by the Qiyan light cavalry, and lost tens of thousands of people in less than a month. They huddled in the three border cities and did not dare to show their faces. They didn't even have the courage to take the initiative to attack."

The little kingfisher timely relayed the information tracked by the birds to the owner.

"Yancheng has been under siege for the longest time. The food is about to run out, the people are full of complaints, and there are often **** incidents of looting grain shops. If this continues, there will be riots in the city without the need for rebels to attack the city. "

"Where is Commander Xu? Has the imperial court secretary succeeded yet?"

Lin Qingluo had a headache: "Chen Xun is just a martial artist, and he is not a top player on the Jianghu Fengyue list. Why has he not been able to kill him until now?"

"They tried several times and killed several of Chen Xun's subordinates, and the masters of the Imperial Court Division were also injured."

The little kingfisher answered truthfully: "That's why, the high-ranking generals of the rebel army hid in the barracks and did not show their faces. It is even more difficult to kill them again."

Lin Qingluo helplessly supported his forehead: "Where is the second princess? There is no movement over there?"

"The second princess is still hiding in the big tent of the leader of the Qiyan tribe. People from the imperial court disguised themselves as shepherdesses and approached the big tent several times, but they couldn't find the right time to attack."
