A silver light flashed.

A figure appeared beside him and sat down.

Xiao ran didn’t need to turn around to guess who it was.

Who else could it be other than the 12th sword?

Before he arrived, the cold air arrived first.

“How come you have time to come out?” Xiao ran was curious.

He threw half of the watermelon over.

“I’m looking for someone. ” The 12th sword really didn’t talk much.

Only Xiao ran could say a little. If it were someone else, they wouldn’t say a word.

If he could do it, he would definitely not talk.

Xiao ran knew who he was looking for, who had humiliated his convoy on the official road.

“Did you find it?”

“Not yet,”

“What will happen to Princess Qing ning if you come out?”

“There’s a barrier I’ve left behind. If someone tries to break in, they won’t be able to hide from me. As long as I’m in the capital, I can rush back at any time. ”

“You’re free the day after tomorrow?” Xiao ran asked.

“If there’s anything you want to say, say it.”

“Shi Ming is going to be engaged, go to the fu residence to propose marriage.”

“Alright,” he said. The 12th sword agreed.

“You’ve seen so many princes and princesses kowtow and cry together?” Xiao ran was eating a watermelon.

“I’ve never seen it before, but it’s quite spectacular. ”

He followed their gaze.

A thousand feet away from the Vermilion Bird gate, by the guardrails.

A group of people knelt on the ground, kowtowing and crying loudly. It was a wonderful scene.

He had been crying and kowtowing for an entire night, yet he was still so energetic. It was really admirable.

Especially those who were kneeling in front.

They kowtowed more and more fiercely, cried more fiercely, and shouted louder.

Xiao ran teased,”how exciting.”

“Indeed,” The 12th sword agreed.

“In a little while, at most by nightfall, they’ll disperse.”

“I’m afraid some people won’t be able to last until dark. ”

The two of them spoke in a daze, but the meaning of their words was easy to understand.

In the end, it was just for show. He wanted to express a layer of meaning to the outside world that he was a “filial son.” The signal had been released. If outsiders knew that he continued to kneel here, kowtow, and cry, it would be meaningless.

He would find an excuse to leave ‘helplessly’.

He would most likely pretend to faint, depending on who was the first.

He finished the two watermelons.

The show was over. Xiao ran stood up from the roof.”Do you still want to continue?”

“Yes.” The 12th sword nodded.

“Alright! I’ll go back first. ”

The two of them separated.

Xiao ran walked towards the divine sword guards. As soon as he reached the entrance, a woman wearing the long dress of the spirit God agency stood there. When she saw him, she quickly came up to him and said,”Lord Xiao, I’m here to see you under the orders of the vice-director of the spirit agency.”

“Is there something?”

“Vice Division Master Ling asked me to tell you to go to the spirit gods division immediately.”

“Now?” Xiao ran asked.

“Yes.”

“I know.” Xiao ran nodded.

He did not rush over. Instead, he looked at the divine sword guards and instructed,”go and tell Shen Yiming that if there’s anything, he can look for me at the spirit gods Department. If he can’t find me, ask him to send someone to my house to pass a message.”

“Alright, brother Xiao.”

He left the divine sword guards and rushed to the spirit God Bureau.

In his heart, he was guessing why Ling Qing ‘er was looking for him at this time.

Could it be that her parents were here now?

Thinking of this …

Xiao ran was a little nervous. Although they had already met when they were in her hometown in Anyang County, this time was different. After all, they were in Beijing.

At this point.

Just as he was about to send someone in to report, Ling Qing ‘er walked out quickly from inside.

He looked at Xiao ran and smiled.”You’re here.”

“Yes.” Xiao ran responded.

“Follow me!”

After leaving the spirit gods Department, he followed her to the north of the city.

It looked like they were going out of the city.

“Have you guessed it?” Ling Qing ‘er asked.

“Can you not speak in riddles?” Xiao ran was very unhappy.

He rubbed her head, messing up her hair.

“Pay attention to your image. There are so many people on the street looking at you. Am I shameless?” Ling Qing ‘er rolled her eyes at him in annoyance.

He tidied his hair.

“It’s also very sudden for me. I just received the news that father and mother are not far from here. They will reach the spirit stream River soon. ”

“So fast?” Xiao ran was speechless.

“Yes.” Ling Qing ‘er nodded.

“Let’s hurry up, don’t be late. ”

He left the North City and rushed towards the spirit stream River.

The spirit stream River was about 20 miles away from the capital. The river was not big, but the water was very clear. It nurtured the nearby villages, hence the name.

At this point.

The two of them stopped, but they did not see the carriage.

“It’s a good thing I’m not late. ” Xiao ran smiled.

“Nervous?” Ling Qing ‘er blinked her eyes playfully.

“What’s there to be nervous about? It’s not like I haven’t seen it before. ” Xiao ran rolled his eyes at her.

Suddenly.

One after the other, two rays of light flashed across the sky and rushed into the forest.

“Eh? It’s him?” Xiao ran was suspicious.

“You know him?” Ling Qing ‘er asked.

“Yes.” Xiao ran explained.

“One of them is called Qu Bo’ an, from the Zhou state. He was born in nether prison and has a high status there. I’ve met him a few times.”

“The netherworld prison that specifically goes against the imperial family of Zhou state?” Ling Qing ‘er asked.

“Why is he here at this time? From the looks of it, he seems to be being chased. ”

He asked.

“Do you want to go and take a look?”

“That’s good. ” Xiao ran muttered after a moment of silence.

“You wait here, I’ll go take a look. If the two elders come and I’m not back yet, don’t wait for me. Take them to their new home at the Vermillion Bird square.”

“No!” Ling Qing ‘er shook her head.

“I bought a house in Jingwen Lane. It’s right next to your house.”

“Don’t you have a house in Vermillion Bird Market? Why do we have to spend so much money?”
