Chapter 239 Jia Xu's speculation, Ning Fan tells a story.

Lingzhou City.

Jia Xu stood in front of the map, Ji Sui and Li Xiuning were both solemn, Ran Min's eyes were full of fierceness, and the murderous aura on his body was surging.

The atmosphere in the whole hall was very surprised, and the four people were silent, as if waiting for something.

A hurried footsteps sounded, and a young man in black walked in quickly, bowed respectfully, and took out a secret report from his arms.

"Sir, this is the secret report of the recent troop movements of the southwest border army."

"There is also news from Julong City. The 50,000 defenders of Julong City have been on high alert these two days. It seems that there will be a big move. The specific situation is unknown!"

"Our spies around the King of Huai have all lost contact and are suspected of being exposed."

As soon as the black-clothed man finished speaking, Jia Xu's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he whispered: "Send a quick pigeon to the capital, the King of Huai has made unusual movements, beware of the borders in all directions."

"Activate the Tianzi Intelligence Network and investigate the movements of the King of Huai in detail. Once there is any news, report it urgently!"

"Yes!"

The black-clothed man strode away. Jia Xu looked at Ji Sui and whispered: "Sir Ji, immediately send all scouts to the west. Close surveillance in the south and Julong City."

"Sir, is the news accurate? Once we start, we may be in trouble."

"Nearly 100% sure!"

Jia Xu took a deep breath and gradually calmed down: "Today, your Majesty will perform a ceremony to worship the heaven. According to the ritual, he will go to the imperial mausoleum to worship after the ceremony."

"A few days ago, I received a secret report that the Yanlong Guards in Jiangnan and the people of the Dragon Hunting Hall went north together. There must be some plan."

"The people of the Barbarian God Temple first robbed the Tianlao, and then the King of Huai frequently mobilized troops on the border. The direction of Julong City is also stepping up preparations for war."

"All kinds of signs indicate that the King of Huai is going to start a war."

Ji Sui heard this and glanced at the map. He frowned slightly: "Now we have 100,000 soldiers stationed in Lingzhou, and the food and grass in the city are enough to defend for a hundred days. How can the King of Huai break the city?"

"Besides, there are the main forces of the Zhenguo Army stationed in the capital. The King of Huai has only 100,000 soldiers at most. Isn't it self-destruction?"

Hearing Ji Sui's question, Jia Xu looked at the map beside him and said softly: "Now that His Majesty has summoned the kings back to the capital, His Royal Highness Prince Sheng has left Xuanjian Pass. If the King of Huai rebels, Dayan will definitely march eastward!"

"The Duke of Zhenguo defeated Donghuai in the eastern border a few days ago. Although he annihilated hundreds of thousands of its main forces, he already had the strength to invade the west. Moreover, there are only tens of thousands of soldiers left in the eastern border."

"Once the King of Huai rebels, the capital will be in chaos. The national defense army in the area must immediately rush to the eastern border to guard against Donghuai! "

"Even Xuanjian Pass is at risk of being breached. The court can hardly take care of itself. On the contrary, the King of Huai has the advantage. He can advance directly into the capital and retreat to recapture Lingzhou."

"If I am right, the King of Huai must have a backup plan!"

Hearing Jia Xu's sonorous and powerful words, Ji Sui's expression condensed, and Li Xiuning also said: "Sir, if this is true, we must guard against the direction of Julongcheng!"

"Now, if the enemy does not move, we cannot move either."

Jia Xu pondered for a long time and sighed: "We can only wait and see. Now the key to this game is still in the capital!"

...

West Mountain.

Yuwang City is surrounded by mountains, and the imperial tomb is also located on the hills west of the city, seven miles away from the capital.

"Fifth brother, tell me about your interesting experiences in the sect."

"Do you have any beautiful senior sisters or junior sisters in your sect? Bring them back to introduce them to second brother one day?"

Ning Fan lay on the side of Emperor Yu, looking at Ning Xuan riding a horse beside him, with a hint of curiosity on his face.

Old Five was taken to Wangxian Mountain to learn martial arts since he was a child. Although the two of them didn't spend much time together, they didn't feel any strangeness.

Besides, Ning Xuan has a good temper. He always looks like a modest gentleman, gentle as jade, and is polite to everyone. It is obvious that he has a childlike heart.

"Brother, we do have beautiful female disciples in our sect, but... I don't hang out with them on weekdays."

"Oh?"

Ning Fan's expression became more curious, and he leaned forward and asked softly: "Does your sect have old monsters that have lived for hundreds or thousands of years?"

"Uh!"

Ning Xuan seemed to be stumped by the question, and was stunned for a moment, and said seriously: "Brother, even if you are a martial artist, you can only extend your life. There are some means to extend your life in the world, but at most you can only live a dozen years longer."

"How can anyone in the world live for hundreds or thousands of years?"

"Is that so..."

Ning Fan seemed to be hysterical. When he thought of the sect and the world, he couldn't help but think of the immortality in some fairy tales in his previous life, smashing the stars with fists, and kicking the mountains and rivers with feet.

Seeing Ning Fan's slightly disappointed expression, Emperor Yu said unhappily: "Why, are you still thinking about seeking immortality and immortality?"

"Uh!" Ning Fan smiled awkwardly and shook his head: "They are all illusory things, and they are not true."

"A person's life is full of vicissitudes of life for a hundred years, and he has experienced the world. This is the true state. If everyone is immortal, wouldn't the world be in chaos?"

"That makes sense!"

Emperor Yu also showed a thoughtful look. Ning Fan looked at Ning Xuan and couldn't help but feel moved: "Old Five, let me tell you a story!"

"Hmm?"

Ning Xuan showed a look of doubt on his face, and Ning Fan said slowly: "There was a mountain called Qingyun Mountain in the past. On Qingyun Mountain, there was a sect of immortal cultivation called Qingyun Sect."

"The Qingyun Sect has a very long history and has been passed down for more than two thousand years. It is the leader of the two sects of good and evil..."

Ning Fan told Zhang Xiaofan's story slowly and steadily. The guard of honor gradually entered the west mountain, and the road to the mountain gradually became rugged.

But around the emperor, Ning Xuan was obviously attracted by Ning Fan's story. Even Emperor Yu and Ning Chen pricked up their ears and listened to Zhang Xiaofan's tortuous life!

"Second brother, is there really an immortal gate in this world?"

"How can Zhang Xiaofan, a humble man, have such an adventure?"

"Can mortals really seek immortality?"

Emperor Yu looked at Ning Fan beside him with a serious face. The latter grinned: "Father, I just said that those are all illusory things and cannot be believed."

"Yeah!"

Emperor Yu nodded, with a hint of hesitation in his eyes, obviously wandering in the world.

"Gee!"

"Gee!"

The sound of a hurried horse's hoof pulled Emperor Yu back from his endless fantasy. Ning Fan's face froze. He saw the knight galloping from afar, and Jing Li hurriedly led his men to stop him.

"Stop!"

"Jinyiwei is reporting urgently!"

Ning Fan suddenly stood up, looked at the man, and shouted loudly: "General Jing, let him come over quickly."

"Yes!"

Jing Li responded, and the Jinyiwei quickly turned over and dismounted, staggering towards Ning Fan, shouting loudly: "Your Highness, Huainan spirit pigeon sent a letter, a top-level secret report!"
