On the verdant hills, a cool breeze blows, with a long-lost comfort and comfort.

Gu Chen woke up from meditation, and as soon as he opened his eyes, on the edge of the cliff in front of him, a beautiful figure was standing there, looking at the rolling mountains in the distance.

Green mountains and green waters, stunning beauties, and suitable for each other.

Gu Chen got up and walked towards Ji Lanchu.

A few days had passed since they escaped death in the Valley of the Aragami Gods, and they had escaped from the Middle-earth Empire, finally having to spend a few days hunting them down.

The days of great battle, especially in the Aragami Valley, have suffered a lot of losses, and the two of them have been silently healing for the past few days.

The injuries on Gu Chen's body have almost healed, only the sequelae left by the secret method of "Spiritual Decryption" are still a little tired.

Ji Lanchu is also more than half better, and it is time for the two to discuss what to do next.

Snore.

The white ape was sleeping with a colorful tree he had found from the Aragami Valley, snoring like thunder.

Gu Chen passed by its side, and Ji Lanchu suddenly noticed that he was awake, turned his face, and smiled.

That smile is really like a hundred flowers blooming, and the wild flowers in the mountains can't set off the temperament of this girl who has brought disaster to the country and the people.

"What are you going to do next?"

Gu Chen walked to her side, and the two stood side by side.

The breeze blew on his face, making his black hair messy.

Although Ji Lanchu fled Kyushu, the influence of the Middle-earth royal family and the imperial family spread throughout the continent, and the matter was not over for her.

What's more, it is not easy for a girl to be alone at home.

"The sky is high and the birds can fly, the sea is wide and the fish can jump, the world is so big, I want to go for a walk. ”

Ji Lan smiled lightly.

"Oh. ”

Gu Chen looked disappreciative.

It seems that although the two of them have a heart-to-heart in the Valley of the Aragami, after getting out of danger, the princess still has reservations about herself.

Ji Lanchu stared sideways at Gu Chen's disapproving appearance, and Qiu Shuiming's eyes were slightly disappointed.

"I'm going to take a walk around the East Wilderness next. She said.

"Why?" Gu Chen asked casually.

"You also know that I have always thought that the wolf ambition of the Huangfu family is a great threat to my royal family, so I have been secretly investigating. ”

"After my investigation, there is something special about this place in the Eastern Wilderness, and the Huangfu family seems to be particularly concerned about this area. ”

Gu Chen's pupils shrank slightly, "For example?"

"The Huangfu family is a famous family in Kyushu on the surface, but Huangfu Wuji is privately rumored to be the god of the Hades Palace. ”

"Over the years, the killers of the Hades God Palace have been particularly frequent in the Eastern Wilderness, and for example, a year ago, they destroyed the thirteen sects of the Wind Forest Mansion for no reason, and this matter is very strange. ”

"Four or five months ago, it was rumored that the important rudder of the Hades Palace in the Moby Dick Mansion was destroyed by the Heavenly Court. ”

Ji Lanchu said inadvertently, but Gu Chen was surprised to hear it.

is worthy of being the princess of the empire, and the news is so well-informed.

It was not surprising that she could know about the destruction of the Divine Pavilion, but the thirteen sects of the Wind Forest Mansion were destroyed, and not many people knew that this matter was done by the Hades God Palace.

"There is another thing that I am most concerned about, about three years ago, Huangfu Wuji's fourth son, Huangfu De, once led a large number of people to the Eastern Wilderness suddenly. And after that, except for him who came back alive, everyone else died. ”

"The Huangfu family has suffered huge losses, but strangely, no one knows who did it, and they who were strong in the past did not pursue it afterwards. ”

"There is even a shadow of the Shen family in this matter, which makes me very curious about what is so funny about this matter. ”

Ji Lanchu continued, and when Gu Chen heard this, he couldn't help but have ripples on his face!

Three years ago!

Three years ago, it was the time period when his father Gu Tianming disappeared.

According to what his mother said later, his father decided to leave at that time precisely because he awakened the sky and tyranny, in order to avoid the pursuit of the Huangfu family and not drag down their mother and son.

So Huang Fude happened to take a large group of people to the Eastern Wilderness at this time period, is it just a coincidence?

"By the way, such an important matter as the awakening of the Heavenly Tyrant, I'm afraid that the Huangfu family will not be at ease if it is not handed over to his own people, then Huangfude went to his father three years ago. ”

"Wait, Shen family, isn't my mother's family surnamed Shen?"

Gu Chen remembered the night he fled from the Wind Forest Mansion, his mother let him go first, he didn't worry about her, Elder Nangong told him that his mother's family was not simple, and the Huangfu family didn't dare to move her easily.

At that time, everything was so rushed, Gu Chen didn't think about it, leaving many doubts.

Now I heard what Ji Lanchu said, when his father disappeared three years ago, the Shen family actually had a shadow in it, which couldn't help but make his heart turbulent.

Will this Shen family be my mother's maiden family?

The people of the Huangfu family went to arrest their father, what role did they play in it?

"What is the origin of the Shen family you are talking about?"

Gu Chen couldn't help but ask.

His expression changed significantly, and Ji Lan was surprised at first sight.

After many days of getting along, Gu Chen seemed to her to be a guy who was far more moody than his peers, even in the face of the king of the immortal realm who was chasing after him, he could calmly and rationally kill the other party, which made her admire it so much.

But now, I just heard a few rumors from her casually, and my expression changed.

She thought about Gu Chen's connection to this matter in her heart, and replied truthfully.

"I told you before, one government, two courts, three families, four holy lands, and five holy sects, this is the fifteen strongest forces in the Middle-earth Empire except for my imperial family. ”

"In addition to the life family, there are also Confucianism and Buddhism, and the Confucian factions are headed by this Shen family. ”

Gu Chen listened carefully and frowned. "This Confucianism is strong?"

"If you simply talk about combat power, there are very few Confucian masters, and most of them are powerless scholars. ”

Ji Lanchu said with a smile, "But the ideas of Confucianism have always been the foundation of the rule of my Middle-earth Empire, and their ideas are deeply rooted in the common people of Li, and their influence is incomparably great. ”

"Among the Confucianists, the Shen family is the leader, and there are a large number of Confucian scholars who are officials in the imperial court, and most of them are heroic and upright, and dare to fight against the Son of Heaven for the people of Li. ”

Gu Chen had been in a wild place before, and when he heard that there was such a force for the first time, he couldn't help but feel very strange.

"Since they don't have any combat power, how can they be the opponents of the Monk Sect, they should be easily exterminated, right?"

Ji Lanchu shook his head, "The territory of the Middle-earth Empire is vast, and there are tens of billions of people in Kyushu. With such a large territory, it is difficult to maintain stability and prosperity without a mainstream and suitable ideology to guide it. ”

"The core concepts of Confucianism, such as benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom and faith, are in line with the requirements of the imperial court, so at the beginning of the establishment of the Middle-earth Empire, our royal family respected it as a national art. ”

"After countless years of Confucianism's development, the thought has long been integrated into the entire Kyushu, they are tied to the people of Limin, emphasizing that water can carry a boat and can overturn a boat, do you say they are strong?"
