The tea was finished.

After chatting for a while, Qu Bo’ an stood up from the stone bench.

“The Green Mountains will never change, and the green water will always flow. Brother Xiao, we’ll meet again!”

“Take care!” Xiao ran said.

“Yes.” Qu Bo’ an responded.

He turned into a golden light and left quickly.

After he left.

Xiao ran looked up at the sky.”It seems that I have to make a trip to the Gu residence.”

He instructed gold one to have the three of them look after the house before he left for the Gu mansion.

At this time, the Yamen was already closed, and Gu Chongyang should be at home.

They arrived at the Gu Manor.

Just then, Hu Zi came out and looked at Xiao ran. Hu Zi rubbed his eyes and made sure he was not mistaken. He quickly came up to him.”Brother Xiao, why are you here?”

“There’s something I need to do,” Xiao ran patted his shoulder.

“Are you done with your family matters?”

“Mm! I’m done. You didn’t come last night, so I’ll treat you to another meal tonight. You must come. ” Hu Zi said.

“It’s my treat tonight. Let’s get together. ”

Before he could reject, Xiao ran continued.

“Big brother Gu is at home?”

“The old master has just returned, and the young master is still at the Dragon text Pavilion.”

“Bring me there.” Xiao ran said.

After a while.

Hu Zi brought Xiao ran to the study and stopped.”The old master is inside. Brother Xiao, I won’t be accompanying you.”

“Yes.” Xiao ran responded.

He walked to the study.

“Thump thump!”

He knocked on the door.

“Who is it?” Gu Chongyang’s voice came from the study.

“Xiao ran.”

“Hurry up and come in.” The door opened, and Gu Chongyang came up to him with a smile.

The two of them sat on the chairs.

Gu Chongyang asked someone to make tea. After the tea was ready, he asked the maidservant to leave and close the door.

“What happened?”

“Have you guessed it?” Xiao ran smiled bitterly.

“Qiuhe isn’t home. She’s still in the palace and not on duty. Since you’ve come to find me personally, it must be something important.” Gu Chongyang said.

“The matter of the princes?”

“No!” Xiao ran stopped smiling and said seriously.

“I got the news from nether prison. The Army of Zhou state has finished gathering and is secretly heading to the barren County, ready to start a war.”

“Are you sure?” The smile on Gu Chongyang’s face disappeared.

“Yes.” Xiao ran nodded.

“The source of this information is very reliable. Big brother Gu, you don’t have to worry.”

“Do you know how many troops Zhou state has sent this time? What kind of troops were deployed? How many powerhouses did you send?”

“I don’t know,” Xiao ran said.

“But one thing is for sure. The alien races are also involved. They must have formed some kind of alliance with them. They want to use the barren County as a breakthrough point to tear open a line of defense. They want to March straight in and bite off a piece of flesh from the great Xia.”

He paused for a moment.

“The Zhou state has already received news of his coma and the ‘internal strife’ in the palace. They sent out their troops this time to catch us off guard. They want to take advantage of the fact that the Xia officials have no leader to deal us a heavy blow!”

“This matter is indeed very troublesome.” Gu Chongyang’s expression was grave.

“His Majesty is still unconscious, so he can’t mobilize the troops of the Dragon plateau camp and other camps. We can only transfer troops from the barren County. If the Zhou Empire sends out too many soldiers, the barren County will not be able to withstand it. ”

He looked at Xiao ran and shook his head.

“Although you have the true dragon Token, it’s not suitable for you to mobilize the Army.”

Xiao ran understood the logic behind this. There were some things that could not be done. Once done, it would attract the suspicion of others and even cause more serious trouble.

“The great Xia Dynasty is in a mess now.”

At this point.

Gu Chongyang stood up from his chair.”If the sky falls, there will be tall people to hold it up. Let the three Dukes worry about it!”

“However, we still have to make the necessary preparations. Move the nearby troops to the barren County and prepare for the decisive battle with the great Zhou Dynasty.”

“I have another concern.” Xiao ran’s expression was grave.

“Speak!”

Xiao ran pointed at the residences of the princes.”I’m afraid they’ll come out and stir up trouble again.”

“They dare!” Gu Chongyang slammed the table in anger.

Even the tea was shaken out.

With a gloomy face, he thought about it carefully and realized that Xiao ran was right. The battle for the throne had come to this point, and there was no room for mistakes! Since they dared to assassinate Emperor Shengwen and trigger a rebellion in the Royal Palace, what else would they not dare to do?

His face was filled with solemness and gloominess.

He cursed.

“A bunch of bastards!”

“Be careful, the walls have ears.” Xiao ran reminded.

“The study is absolutely safe. No one can get close to it.” Gu Chongyang said.

“Your guess might be right. These things might really attack again. While the Zhou state is attacking the barren County, we will attract the attention of the Imperial court and secretly achieve a secret that can not be told to others. ”

“He still has three days before he wakes up.”

“AI!” Gu Chongyang sighed helplessly.

“You go back first. I’ll go to the palace now and discuss with the Three Ducal Ministers. We have to make a decision as soon as possible. Once a war breaks out at the border, it will be a terrible disaster if we’re not ready.”

“Yes.” Xiao ran nodded.

They left the Gu residence.

“It’s going to be an eventful year again. ”

He walked towards the spirit gods Department.

Father Ling and the others were going to leave in two days. They didn’t show up yesterday, so it wouldn’t make sense if they didn’t go today.

At this point.

The guard at the door recognized him and greeted him with a smile.

Xiao ran nodded in response.

After entering the spirit gods Department, he directly entered Ling Qing ‘er’s courtyard.

Ling Qing ‘er and her father were sitting in the courtyard and chatting. When they saw Xiao ran, they quickly came up to him and asked,”are you done?”

“Yes.” Xiao ran nodded.

He walked over and sat on the chair.
