Jiang Ting and the others arrived in Yuanjing a day earlier than expected. Although Yan Mo was pregnant, his leg strength was not affected at all, and he ran to the front of the carriage from time to time, with an expression of disgust for their slowness.

On the day of arriving in Yuanjing, the gates of the city were still tightly closed, and the bowl of noodles was guarded by heavy soldiers. Du Yanshan was only allowed to enter the city after showing his official certificate.

The city was lifeless, almost the same as when Du Yanshan left. The formerly bustling and prosperous Yuanjing City became like this, which made him really sad.

In the past, the main street was full of stalls, and there were always many hawkers hawking along the street. Now, except for a few passers-by, there are even open shops on the whole street. There are only them and a carriage on the big street.

It was broad daylight, but there was no sound of people around, only the friction sound of the wheels rolling over the rough stone bricks, and the hooves of Doushuang and Yanmo.

Mu Nan opened a gap in the curtain of the car, wanting to see what the largest city in Shuo Kingdom was like, but the outside was bleak, and then he closed the curtain in disappointment.

He quietly glanced at Du Yanshan, who closed his eyes and sat on the cushion. Du Yanshan was like this most of the time in the carriage, and even when he arrived in Yuanjing, he did not see any emotional fluctuations.

Mu Nan began to fantasize, would Du Yanshan arrange for him to meet his biological parents when he brought him to Yuanjing?Thinking of this, he became more and more excited. Those who can get acquainted with Du Yanshan will definitely not be ordinary people. Maybe he will have a prominent birth, and then he will be able to fight for what he wants!

In his opinion, Du Yanshan is not suitable to be with his elder brother Jiang at all. Du Yanshan has too many burdens on his body, and it is impossible to treat Jiang Ting wholeheartedly.

"After arriving at the destination, I will arrange for you to stay with an old man temporarily." As if sensing Mu Nan's gaze, Du Yanshan suddenly said.

"I don't want to be separated from you..." Mu Nan froze for a moment, then hurriedly said.

"At that time, I will go to the meeting of ten countries. It is not clear which country I will go to this time. It is inconvenient for you to continue to follow me," Du Yanshan explained.

"Then, what about Brother Jiang? I can be with him, just like in the racecourse..." Mu Nan said anxiously.

"I will arrange for him to help me with other affairs. You still have a lot to learn, and the old man will teach you one by one," Du Yanshan interrupted Mu Nan, "Maybe you have thought about whether you were born noble Clan, I can tell you now that your status is indeed honorable, so you must learn the ways of dealing with people that match your status as soon as possible."

"...Thank you sir for making arrangements for me," Mu Nan said in a low voice, "just... can you tell me, who are my real parents?"

Du Yanshan saw that his tone was firm, and it seemed that he would not give up easily if he didn't ask the reason today. He sighed softly and said, "I have never wanted to tell you about your biological parents because..."

Mu Nan was so nervous that his body trembled slightly.

"...Because they have all left this world."

There was a pain in Mu Nan's heart, he clutched his chest, his eyes were a little dry, something wanted to come out, but it couldn't come out.

"However, you still have two younger sisters," Du Yanshan put his hand on Mu Nan's shoulders, "so you are not alone here, but they are not in Yuanjing City now, so there is no way for you to meet."

Mu Nan's two younger sisters were sent out of Yuanjing a few days after the first emperor passed away.It is said that the princess was young and sent to rest in a villa outside. In fact, she was exiled. It is estimated that she will never be taken back to the palace in this life.

But this is also good, the battle for the throne will definitely cause some disturbances, the two princesses will not be implicated if they are not in the palace, and Du Yanshan has less scruples in doing things.

Mu Nan nodded: "I understand, everything is under the arrangement of the adults."

"Just remember, I will never harm you." Du Yanshan finally said.

With the advance notice from the guards outside the city gate, when the carriage arrived at the gate of the palace, the father-in-law was waiting beside him.

Jiang Ting stopped the carriage, opened the door curtain and asked Du Yanshan to get off.

After Du Yanshan got off the car, he found that his father-in-law was an old face: "It turned out to be Eunuch Gu."

Eunuch Gu saluted Du Yanshan, and said with a half-smile: "Master Du, don't come here without any problems."

After the change of dynasty, the old people who can continue to stay in the palace are some powerful characters with means, and Eunuch Gu is one of them.

"I didn't expect to see Lord Du again in my lifetime," Eunuch Gu said.

Du Yanshan chuckled lightly and said, "I didn't expect to be able to return to the Yuan capital so quickly."

"The emperor has been busy reviewing a lot of memorials recently. I'm afraid I can't summon the adults today. Let the younger ones take the adults to the residence first." Eunuch Gu made a gesture of invitation with his body sideways. There are two sedan chairs parked behind him, the shape is too small, For single use.

Du Yanshan stepped forward and sat in the sedan chair, and Eunuch Gu sat on the top of the front one. After the two sat firmly, the two bearers at the front and back of the sedan chair lifted the sedan chair and walked to the south.

Seeing this, Jiang Ting asked Mu Nan to sit back in the carriage, and followed closely behind in the carriage.

Du Yanshan's temporary residence is in a secluded corner. The small courtyard is a bit dilapidated, but it is much better than Du Yanshan imagined.

He originally thought that the emperor would let him live in the palace directly for the convenience of monitoring him.There are many guards in the palace, and any court ladies and eunuchs may be the opponent's eyeliner. In this way, his actions will fall into the eyes of others, and his hidden guards cannot freely enter and leave the palace.

After arriving at the small courtyard, there were already two servants waiting at the gate. They were sent here a few days earlier to clean up the entire small courtyard.

After bringing Du Yanshan to the residence, Eunuch Gu greeted him a little and then left in a sedan chair.

After Du Yanshan went into the small courtyard and looked around, he chose two rooms for Jiang Ting and Mu Nan, and ordered the two servants to cook some meals, but they didn't have a good meal all the way.

Jiang Ting went to the kitchen together, first to see if there was anything he could help with, and second, he was worried about letting strangers cook for him. He understood what situation Du Yanshan would face when he came to Yuanjing. The servant must be a spy sent by the enemy.

When he came to the kitchen, Jiang Ting found that all the vegetables and fish in it had been prepared. He went to the well in the backyard to open a bucket of well water, picked some fresh seasonal vegetables and began to wash them.

They eat dry food and dried meat these days, and occasionally hunt some wild animals on the roadside and grill them with fire. After a few days, they get a little angry. Du Yanshan likes to eat vegetables on weekdays, and he has an appetite all the way down. It's not good, and it needs to be recuperated.

Jiang Ting thought about a few dishes and told them to the servants. The servants nodded suspiciously. Seeing that Jiang Ting was thick and thick, they thought it was Du Yanshan's guard or something, but they didn't expect that the other party knew how to cook. , Picking dishes with both hands is very dexterous.

They cooked four dishes and one soup, and the two servants would naturally not eat with Du Yanshan at the table. After the three of them finished their meal, they planned to go back to their room for an early rest.

Jiang Ting washed up casually and was about to enter the house when Mu Nan stopped him.

"Brother Jiang..."

"Huh?" Jiang Ting turned around, "What's wrong?"

"Did Lord Du tell you?" Mu Nan asked, at this time Du Yanshan had already returned to the house, and the secret guard had just handed him two secret letters from his other cronies.

"What are you talking about?" Jiang raised his curiosity. He had already started to keep his distance from Mu Nan. Could it be that Du Yanshan also talked to Mu Nan in private?Jiang Ting felt that although Du Yanshan's behavior was vigorous and resolute, it was also a little unreasonable.

"Master Du will send me to an old man to learn and practice. We may be separated for a while." Mu Nan was a little frustrated.

"This is a good thing," Jiang Ting comforted, "You always have to grow up. Master Du is willing to promote you and let you learn your own skills. In the future, you can not only protect yourself, but also protect Master Du and me." !"

"Well," Mu Nan pulled the corners of his mouth reluctantly, Du Yanshan obviously had some selfish intentions in doing this, and just wanted to drive him away. "I'm a little bit reluctant to part with Brother Jiang..."

Jiang Ting continued: "Don't be afraid when you get there, listen to the teacher, and you can come back soon after you finish your studies. I will also visit you when I find time." It is also in line with Jiang Ting's wish for Shan to send him elsewhere.

"We've made a deal!" Mu Nan raised his little finger, "You must come and see me."

"Okay!" Jiang Ting hooked Mu Nan's finger, and the two pulled the hook.

After sending Mu Nan away, Jiang Ting originally wanted to talk to Du Yanshan, but he saw that it was getting late and they were running all the way, so he didn't bother Du Yanshan to rest.

Jiang Ting fell headlong on the bed and stretched his muscles and bones. Although the bed was a bit hard, it was better than being in the wild.

Before he knew it, he fell asleep very quickly.

In the dream, he saw himself in a very strange place, there were many coffin-like iron boxes flying in the sky, he was standing on a very high tower, surrounded by similar towers.

There are also a few people standing beside him. They look similar to him, but they are wearing strange clothes that they have never seen before.

Those few people said something in Jiang Ting's ear, and held up a rectangular black object, and kept making gestures on it.

Before Jiang Ting could understand what they were talking about, he woke up.

He lay on the bed and stared blankly at the roof beams for a while before he came back to his senses.

He knew that he was not from this world, and that what appeared in that dream was the world he originally lived in, but he woke up halfway through the dream, and was at a loss for what was in the dream.

Jiang Ting's memory has not been fully recovered, as if something is still missing.

He subconsciously touched the black iron system under the pillow, and checked that there was no danger warning on it.

Then, he suddenly remembered that the black object in the hands of those strangers was this piece of black iron. What were they reminding himself of?

Jiang Ting groped for a while on the system content in Heitie, and found that there was an extra positioning function.According to the above description, point the black iron at the person you want to locate, take a picture of his figure, the system will automatically record his information, and finally display his location.

Jiang Ting didn't quite understand the item of "photographing". He "photographed" his room according to the method displayed on the system, and then the image of the room actually appeared on the screen.

"It's amazing..." Jiang Ting couldn't help but said that he could take a picture of Du Yanshan, so that even if he separated from him, he could find him in time.
