Yun Dai'er replied, "Of course I'm back at the County Palace. Once you've arrived at the Imperial City, you can do everything by yourself. You should also grow up now." I have a lot of work to do in the county, and I've been gone a long time. Rest assured, we will see each other again within half a month. "
Jun Lanyue frowned. "But I'm not familiar with this place."
Yun Dai Er helplessly smiled and said, "Could it be that you think I am familiar with this place?" I've lived here since I was a kid, and I don't know how the buildings are arranged. Therefore, if you want to get familiar with them, you should try again in a hundred or two hundred years. "
Jun Lanyue stared dumbfoundedly at Yun Dai'er. He finally submitted.
Finished speaking, Yun Dai Er said, "Then I'll go first. This is the road to the County City, I still have to walk for half a day. Do your best! "
Before Jun Lin Yue could say anything, Yun Dai'er jumped up and dashed towards the clock tower at the side. There was a path there, and from this direction, it seemed like there was a small path in the dense pine forest. The entrance was guarded by red-clothed guards.
The two of them bowed their heads in greeting when they saw Yun Dai Er. Jun Linyue took a closer look and saw a golden signboard at the side. Two large words were written on it, "West Prefecture."
Jun Lanyue subconsciously turned his head to the east, where a similar layout was written, "Eastern Prefecture."
The two sides above his head were mountains. In this place, even if he had wings, he would not be able to escape. He seemed to have understood something that was right. In the afternoon, he was resting in the second castle when there was a knock on the door. The environment here was very elegant, to the point where one couldn't tell that the place was a dangerous checkpoint. Outside the window, the clouds were drifting and the birds were still chirping peacefully.
Jun Linyue replied, "Please enter."
At that moment, the door was pushed open. Four elegant and luxurious women entered in succession. Beautiful peach blossoms were embroidered on the pink silk on their bodies. Their faces were full of peach blossoms, their bodies were graceful, and their appearances were enchanting. The lady in the lead said, "Greetings to the Marquis of Xuanwu."
The three women behind him also bowed.
Jun Lanyue was somewhat baffled. "Eh, dispense with formalities, you guys …" The more Jun Lin looked at them, the more perplexed he was. The leading lady said, "Marquis of Xuanwu, we are the maidservants of Imperial Concubine Qing. We have been entrusted by Imperial Concubine Qing to invite you to the Jadeite Temple before you meet the Human Emperor."
"Imperial Consort Qing? Pure Jade Palace? "Where?" Jun Lanyue was both embarrassed and confused.
The servant girl said, "You will know when you come. We will wait outside for a quarter of an hour, and once you have made up your mind, we will take you there. If you are not out of the palace after a quarter of an hour, we will return to report to the palace. I ask the Black Tortoise to consider and take his leave. "
With that, the four of them smiled and bowed at the same time before slowly leaving the room and closing the door.
Jun Lanyue frowned as he muttered to himself, "Pure Jade Palace, Clear Jade Palace..." Why was he so familiar with her? Just who was she? "Oh my god, why are you so familiar with it?"
After hesitating for a moment, he heard a gentle and flirtatious voice say from outside the door, "Duke of Black Tortoise, the quarter of an hour has passed. We will take our leave first."
At this moment, Jun Linyue suddenly opened the door and said, "Wait a moment!"
The Pure Jade Palace was located on a very beautiful mountain peak not far from the second gate. This place wasn't that far from the Human Emperor's palace. Although there were eight obstacles, in terms of distance, there was only the first and second. The remaining seven obstacles were very close.
They moved slowly towards Yuqing Peak along the mountain path. Although it was a mountain path, Jun Lanyue still thought that they would have to climb it again. But after walking for half an hour, they turned around and saw a massive palace in the middle of a thick forest. Although it was winter, the temperature on the mountain was slightly warmer.
Although most of the trees had fallen off their leaves, the trees here were still thick and dense. Many of the tree trunks were ancient and serene, as if they were from a graphite painting.
The leader of the maidservants said, "Sir Black Tortoise, this is the Pure Jade Palace. Please."
Jun Lanyue nodded. This maid was leading the way, and the three maidservants behind her were surrounding him like flower petals.
As he approached the palace, he could almost smell the fragrance of flowers. Of course, Jun Lanyue didn't know how far away this place was from the Human Emperor. Thus, he had an unfathomable confusion regarding this Jadeite Temple. As for the so-called Imperial Concubine, he didn't know what was going on either.
At the door, there were two silver-winged, bright-armored guards. At this moment, they looked solemn and solemn. The surrounding flowers and plants were all neatly trimmed.
It was very quiet after entering the palace. The interior of the palace was not wide, and there were a few exquisite ancient paintings and calligraphy hung on top of the walls. There were even a curtain and window flowers in the depths of the palace.
At this moment, there was a sound from behind the door. It was a light cough.
The maidservant said, "Esteemed Empress, the Marquis of Xuanwu has arrived." Jun Lanyue frowned. A gentle and weak voice came from inside, "You may leave."
"Yes!" The four answered in unison, but with extreme gentleness.
The door closed with a creak. It was a bit dark in here. Jun Yingyue cupped his fists and said, "Esteemed Empress, what business do you have with little marquis? This is my first time coming to the Great Yang Imperial City, if you have the guts, please forgive me. "
"Haha …" The voice inside was somewhat disdainful, "I'm rather satisfied that Jun Shengtian has taught you this much."
"What?" Jun Linyue strained his ears. "You …" What do you mean? Do you know my royal father? " Behind the curtain, Imperial Concubine Qing said, "Not only do we know each other, we're also friends of life and death."
"You know me?" Jun Bluemoon was somewhat baffled. However, Imperial Concubine Qing did not reply, but only said, "The danger in the Great Yang is a thousand times greater than you can imagine. You shouldn't have come to this place."
"What do you mean?" Jun Lin took a deep breath.
"This place is full of killing and evil, you shouldn't have come here." After saying this, Imperial Concubine Qing walked out from behind the curtains.
Although her appearance was delicate and pretty, if one didn't take a careful look, one wouldn't be able to tell at all. Jun Lanyue repeated her words countless times in his mind.
Suddenly, he asked, "Does the Black Tortoise Mansion owe you a favor or a grudge? "Why are you telling me this?"
Consort Qing didn't say anything, but her expression suddenly turned to one of anger, "Leave the main hall!"
"Humph!" Why should I listen to you! I haven't even seen the Human Emperor, how can I just leave like that? I've gone through countless hardships just to see him. Do you know all of this? "
"There are some things that can be done only if you work hard. If you go in the wrong direction at the start, then the only path left for you is death." Imperial Concubine Qing said harshly, "Someone, come! "Take him down!"
