Mo Li also heard it, got down from the horse, and ran to the front of those two old men, "Sir, I heard what you said just now. Could you tell me in which town it happened?"

"The town in front. Make a turn in front and walk straight on. Then you can see the town." Hearing Mo Li's question, one of the elder men looked at him, pointed at the road in front, and said to him.

The old man cautiously asked him, "You are not local people. Why do you ask about it?"

"Well. We are not local people and come to make business, but Jing City is locked down. I heard what you said just now, so I think the town isn't far away and want to stay there for several days to wait until the lockdown ends." Mo Li smiled and said.

After traveling for a long time, Shuo Ling had long felt that horses got a bit too tired.Therefore, he nodded to agree to Mo Li's suggestion.After getting down from his horse, Mo Li tied it to a tree nearby, took out the food he bought before, and handed it to Shuo Ling.The latter took it over and started to eat.While eating the pancake, Mo Li saw some withered grass in the ditch nearby.Then he stood up and walked there. Having the pancake in his mouth, he pulled the sword out and cut off the withered grass.When he got enough, he bent to carry the pile of grass back to horses and threw it down.The two horses sniffed first and then started to chew the grass.Mo Li reached out to stroke one horse's head and sighed lightly.

    An Qin picked up the teacup on the table and had another sip. She said, "Just do what I ask you to do. Check the gender of the dead body in the grave.""Your Highness, it's... I will." Sicha was a little hesitant. But after a while, she agreed.An Qin nodded but soon she frowned again and continued, "No, you can't go there.""What's wrong, Your Highness?" Sicha quickly asked when An Qin changed her mind.The latter explained, "Zhou Ji seems to treat us with great respect, but I can always feel his hostility. If you leave the mansion at midnight, you will be caught. To be on the safe side, you go to find those guards my father sends here and ask them to do it.""I see. I will go right now." Sicha responded.An Qin nodded, "Be quick."Then, Sicha walked out of the room.When she reached the mansion gate, Zhou Ji asked, "Miss Sicha, where are you going?""Oh, Mr.

Shuo Ling said that tomorrow he would help Chushi Weiyang ascend to the throne. Although she didn't have a deep impression of Chushi Weiyang, he was very upright, so it would be a good choice to let him be the emperor.It was getting dark.

    "Yes, My Lord!" Zhou Ji answered.Waving his hand with a cold look, Shuo Ling ordered, "Go!"After Zhou Ji left, Shuo Ling sneered.

What a wonderful plan!If he had a hand in this, they wouldn't be able to present him with a good show.So he didn't have to do anything.At the thought, Shuo Ling turned around and walked back to his room.

    Seeing this, Yan Luo couldn't help being touched. It seemed that her father had been so much loved by the people.After she took the throne back, she would assist Lingjun to be an emperor like her father.At this time, Yan Luo hurried forward, helped the old man in front of her, and then said, "What are you doing?

    Chushi Youtian stopped before the room where Chushi Lanfu stayed and ordered Eunuch Li, "Kick the door open!""Yes!"
