What could Song Jixiang say? He couldn't be so selfish as to let Xiao Ruyi stay and not go to save his mother just because he needed to use the space.

Choo Choo Choo--

There were some long and two short bird calls outside the house.

Xiao Ruyi made a gesture to her to keep quiet, and then mouthed, "I'll go out for a while."

Song Jixiang nodded and waved his hand in disgust.

What was there to hide about this childish trick? Wasn't it just that his secret guards had found out some information and wanted to report it to him? This had happened so many times, and she thought he didn't know?

This group of secret guards who came and went without a trace thought they had concealed their presence very well, but they did not know that the hearing of a superpower like her was already different from that of ordinary people.

After a while, Xiao Ruyi led a man in. The man was dressed in black and had a black scarf covering his face, leaving only a pair of unusually bright eyes exposed.

Xiao Ruyi introduced her, "This is An Yi, the leader of the secret guards. He said he has something important to report. You should listen to him."

An Yi was shocked. Why would his own prince tell this outsider the information they had obtained?

Facing Shang Yi's inquiring and distrustful gaze, Xiao Ruyi only said lightly, "She is not an outsider!"

Song Jixiang raised his eyebrows and sat down at the table.

Since it was His Highness's order, An Yi did not dare to disobey, "Your Majesty, your Madam and the others have left Jingzhou and are heading to the next place: Crescent Moon Ridge. I also heard that..." Having said that, he glanced at Song Jixiang who looked calm and composed.

"Speak!" Xiao Ruyi glanced at An Yi coldly.

This warning look made An Yi secretly happy. In the past, this young master was always timid and cowardly. When they were arranged by the Shangguan family to be by his side, they were still worried about the future. Now it seems that His Highness is indeed a young talent. At such a young age, he knew how to hide his strength in the deep palace where people are eaten without leaving bones, and wait for an opportunity to act.

While talking for a while, Xiao Ruyi had already picked up a map of Dayu from the desk and started to study it carefully. Although he had spent a lot of time studying the nearby terrain during this period, he did not dare to be careless, after all, it was related to the lives of his mother and the Shangguan clan.

Since his Highness trusted this person, An Yi did not hesitate any longer and continued, "Yizhou had fallen into the hands of the Northern Barbarians earlier. When we went over to check, Jingzhou was probably about to be lost. Your Highness, Young Master, you didn't see that the prefect there is simply a spineless person. If others hadn't stopped him, he would have wanted to open the city gates and kneel down to welcome those Northern Barbarians in." An Yi was really angry. If he hadn't been on a mission, he would have gone up and chopped that dog official to pieces.

Xiao Ruyi pointed to a location on the map and asked Song Jixiang to look at it. "Look, Crescent Moon Ridge is here."

Song Jixiang looked carefully, nodded, and drew a line on the map. "Crescent Moon Ridge is located west of Jingzhou, only 700 miles away from Jingzhou. It is easy to be discovered by the advance team of the Northern Barbarians." The situation is not only dangerous but also urgent. This man is really patient.

After hearing this, An Yi clenched his fists in anger, "Sir, the Madam and her companions did not intend to go through Jingzhou, but directly through Qingzhou. But an imperial envoy suddenly appeared and forced them to change their route to Jingzhou, and they had to go through the most difficult Wanyue Ridge. I will leave the others there to protect them, and I will come back to report first."

"This imperial envoy has bad intentions!" Song Jixiang looked at Xiao Ruyi and said meaningfully.

An Yi nodded in agreement. As expected, this person was someone His Highness valued. He could understand the twists and turns without him having to spend too much time explaining.

Song Jixiang rolled his eyes. Is it necessary to think about such an obvious truth?

Xiao Ruyi was about to ask An Yi to retreat, but An Yi continued, "On the way back, we encountered a group of armored soldiers, estimated to have more than 10,000 people, heading straight towards Qingzhou."

The two men looked at each other and their expressions darkened. Neither of the two pieces of news brought by An Yi were good news.

After An Yi left, Song Jixiang asked, "What are your plans?"

Xiao Ruyi tapped the table slowly with his fingers. "Tonight I will take An Yi and the others away. We will first set up an ambush at Wanyue Ridge to rescue my mother and the Shangguan clan, and then rush back quickly. These armored troops may have some plans for Qingzhou, so you should make plans early!"

Song Jixiang looked at him as if he were an idiot. "Have you forgotten that there is a plane in the space? My space has been upgraded last time and can accommodate living people."

"You mean..."

Song Jixiang winked at him.

……

"Your Highness, we are only a hundred miles away from Crescent Moon Ridge." Nanny Qin stepped forward and wiped the sweat off Shangguan Yu's forehead. It was unknown who had benefited from these soldiers, but they were making things difficult for them. They did not allow them to rest at this late hour, saying that they had to rush to Crescent Moon Ridge overnight. Your Highness had lived a life of luxury since she was a child, and she had never suffered such a hardship. It was all because of that blind and incompetent emperor and that gossiping and stirring up trouble Concubine Meng.

"I've told you so many times, there is no queen anymore. From now on, you can just call me Madam!" Shangguan Yu sighed, and stood there to rest as she couldn't walk any further.

Several palace servants who were accompanying her covered their mouths and cried, "Yes, Madam!"

Snapped--

A whip came mercilessly and was held tightly by a big hand.

Shangguan Hong gripped the whip tightly in his hand and pulled it back. The escort officer, who had a ferocious look on his face just now, was thrown to the ground fiercely, screaming in pain.

"Although my Shangguan clan has been exiled to the northwest wilderness, we will not tolerate bullying by a small fry like you!"

"You, just wait for me, you will suffer the consequences..." The escort officer walked into the depths of darkness, cursing dirty words.

Hehe, let you be proud for a while. A hundred meters away, there are dozens of archers lying in ambush. As long as we lead this group of people there, even gods can’t save them! He can also go to Concubine Liangliang to claim the reward. The wealth and glory of the rest of his life will be within his reach.

"There is no moon today. I wonder if it will rain tomorrow?" Shangguan Yu looked up at the sky with great disappointment. Her skin, which she had carefully maintained, had long been stained with dirt. Apart from the initial discomfort, she had slowly become accustomed to such running around and fatigue. She couldn't stop worrying about her child, whose whereabouts she didn't know and whether he was safe and sound.

Just when I was feeling sad, a ray of light flashed across my eyes and I could hear a huge buzzing sound in my ears.

The people around him also noticed something was wrong. They all looked up at the sky, their necks stretched out. Even the hundreds of soldiers escorting them had shocked expressions, their necks raised, their spears tightly clenched, as if there was a giant beast hiding in the dark sky, ready to devour them...
