As if he was afraid that Fang Yue would not take action, this senior official in Dachu's inner guard continued:
"Grandmaster Fang, we know that you have a very close relationship with the Empress of Wei, and we also understand that you Concern for her. The reason why we approached you to cooperate is because of your concern. We believe in your ability and determination. We are willing to provide all possible help, including information, materials, and even manpower. As long as you need it, we will try our best to satisfy you."
Fang Yue heard this and knew that this was already the case. This is the greatest help the other party can do.
But he continued to speak: "It's still not enough. I also need to enter the Royal Library of Da Chu to watch the magical skill of Da Chu's country-governing "Spring and Autumn Immortal Cicada"!"
This Da Chu When the senior official of the Internal Security Bureau heard Fang Yue's request, his expression changed slightly. He obviously did not expect that Fang Yue would put forward such a specific and sensitive condition. "The Immortal Cicada of the Spring and Autumn Period" is Da Chu's magical power to control the country. Its preciousness and confidentiality are self-evident. Even members of the royal family are not qualified to have access to it.
He pondered for a moment, seeming to weigh the pros and cons, and finally said slowly: "Grandmaster Fang, your request is indeed very important.
"The Spring and Autumn Immortal Cicada" is one of the top secrets of our great Chu, and has always been limited to the core members of the royal family. Only a very small number of ministers with outstanding merits are qualified to contact them.
However, considering the situation. Considering the current situation and your potential contribution to our country, I can promise you to report this matter to His Majesty and strive to obtain a concession.
But you also need to understand that this is not easy and takes time. You may need to show more sincerity and cooperation.”
Fang Yue nodded, expressing understanding.
He knew that it was indeed presumptuous to make such a request, but if he didn't ask at this time, he would ask for it anytime.
I'm afraid if I miss this opportunity, I want to watch this magical skill in the future.
“Yes!” Fang Yue nodded slightly.
A country's magical power to control the country is naturally extremely precious, and it is extremely difficult for outsiders to watch it.
So, even if the other party really wants to use this opportunity to get rid of Yang Chan.
This request is not something that this person can agree to now. It is normal to ask for instructions from someone above.
If this person agrees straight away, then Fang Yue will definitely doubt the authenticity of what this person said.
“However, even if my emperor agrees, we have to wait until this incident is over. I hope Grandmaster Fang understands.”
“That’s right!”
After the discussion was completed, Fang Yue took some information and then headed towards Zhenbei City.
Looking at Fang Yue's leaving figure, at this time in the valley, a sergeant wearing armor came to the senior internal guard official:
"Master Chen, the magical power of subjugating the country is of great importance, how can you do it?" Promise to the other party? "
Master Chen, the senior official of the Dachu Internal Guard who had just talked with Fang Yue, looked at the sergeant in front of him and nodded solemnly.
He knew the importance of "Spring and Autumn Immortal Cicada" and what his promise just meant.
But he knew better that under the current situation, cooperation with Wei was crucial, and Fang Yue, as an important ally of the Empress of Wei, his value and role cannot be ignored.
"Of course I understand the preciousness and secret of the magic power of Zhenguo."
Master Chen said slowly, "But you also know that the current situation is also a test for our Da Chu. A great However, the power of the Grandmaster is what we need. Yang Chan is not easy to subdue, so it is normal for one or two great masters to die! As long as Fang Yue dies in Zhenbeicheng, this agreement will naturally not count!"
Speaking of this, Master Chen's eyes shone with a cold and cruel light.
If Fang Yue was the great master of Da Chu, he would have risked his life to get the emperor of Da Chu to agree to watch the magical power of subduing the country.
But it turns out that this person is from Wei, so it is better to let him die in Zhenbeicheng.
Mr. Chen's words revealed a cold and realistic consideration.
He knows very well that in the current tense situation, every decision needs to be made with caution, and every promise may become a bargaining chip in the future.
Although he verbally promised to report Fang Yue's request to His Majesty and seek a concession, he already had other concerns in his mind.
As long as Fang Yue dies in the end, there is no need to fulfill his promise.

But somewhere in the deep stream of Shiwanda Mountain, the eldest princess of Chu was standing quietly on a protruding rock. Her eyes were haggard and resentful, and her heart was filled with endless humiliation and unwillingness.
This time Yang Chan forced her to propose marriage, but her father did not dare to refuse, so she had no choice but to take the risk of escaping from the marriage and ended up living here.
She clenched her fists tightly and dug her nails into her palms, but she could not feel the slightest pain.
There was only anger and despair in her heart, for her incompetent father, for the powerful Yang Chan, and for her own fate.
"I will never give in!" She swore secretly in her heart, "I will never let that disgusting Yang Chan succeed, and I will never let my destiny be controlled by others!"
< br>
In the deep stream of Shiwanda Mountain, the eldest princess of Da Chu was immersed in endless anger and unwillingness. Her eyes were like torches, burning with unyielding flames. At this moment, her attention was attracted by a faint and strange sound, which seemed to come from the mountain stream.
She turned quickly and glanced sharply at the source of the sound. I saw a figure floating slowly along the stream in the stream. It was a woman. Her face was pale, her breath was dying, and she was completely unconscious. She was obviously in great danger.
The eldest princess did not hesitate at all. She immediately jumped into the stream and swam towards the woman.
Her movements were quick and powerful, and she quickly approached the woman and hugged her tightly.
She used all her strength to drag the woman out of the stream and put her on a flat rock.
She carefully examined the woman's injuries and found that she had multiple scars on her body, apparently from a fierce battle.
"Who is she? Why is she here? Who beat her like this?" The eldest princess frowned and thought in her heart.
Under the careful inspection of the eldest princess, she found that not only did this woman have multiple scars on her body, but she was also dressed in luxurious clothes. She was by no means an ordinary person. Just as she was about to take a closer look, a burst of noise came.
Chu Qingping, the eldest princess of Dachu, frowned, and her heart was full of doubts and vigilance. She quickly hid the unconscious woman in the bushes nearby and covered it with branches and leaves to ensure that she would not be easily discovered. He quietly hid behind the rocks and quietly observed the direction from which the noise came.
She saw a group of black knights galloping in this direction, their outfits and auras revealing an ominous premonition. Chu Qingping's heart tightened. She knew that these black knights were Yang Chan's minions. Their appearance at this time was definitely not a coincidence.
Damn it, these black knights who are like dog-skin plasters, how come they caught up so quickly!
Chu Qingping looked resentful. She thought that her whereabouts had been tracked by these black knights again. She did not expect that these people were chasing Zhu Linlang.
Chu Qingping cursed secretly in her heart, but she knew not to panic at this moment. She had to stay calm in order to come up with countermeasures against these black knights.
She observed the movements of the black knights and found that they did not seem to directly discover where she and the unconscious woman were hiding. They were just looking around the area, obviously looking for something.
At this moment, she suddenly thought of a plan. She quickly took out some powder from her body, which was some poison she had prepared during her escape. She carefully sprinkled the powder on some leaves, then blew gently, blowing the powder in the direction of the black knights.
The black knights did not notice this subtle movement, and they continued to search for Chu Qingping and the woman's hiding place.
However, when they approached the leaf that had been dusted with medicine, they suddenly felt dizzy, and then they fell to the ground one after another.
Chu Qingping couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this scene. She knew that these black knights were only temporarily unconscious, but at least now her and the woman's safety was temporarily guaranteed.
She quickly walked out from behind the rock and came to the side of the black knights. After she confirmed that they were all unconscious, she quickly collected and destroyed their ships and weapons.
Then, he took Zhu Linlang onto the last boat, and then went down the river, feeling both happy and worried in his heart.
She was glad that she was temporarily free from the pursuit of the black knight. However, she also knew that this was only temporary safety. Yang Chan's power was huge, and she had to be more careful.
Chu Qingping turned her attention to Zhu Linlang. Although her face was pale, there was an extraordinary temperament between her eyebrows. Chu Qingping was curious, who is this woman? Why is she here? Who hurt her like this?
However, now is not the time to explore these questions.
Chu Qingping knew that she had to find a safe place as soon as possible to heal Zhu Linlang.
At the same time, she also needs to think about her future.
She must not succumb to Yang Chan's power like this, she must find a way to change her destiny.
As the boat went downstream, Chu Qingping's thoughts were as chaotic as the flowing water.

When Fang Yue arrived at Zhenbeicheng, it was almost dusk. This important border town located in the northern border of Dachu is particularly important because of its special geographical location. The city walls are towering and heavily guarded, which shows that Chu attaches great importance to border security.
Fang Yue mingled among the crowds entering the city. Although his face was unremarkable, his deep eyes revealed an extraordinary temperament.
He knew clearly in his heart that his trip to Zhenbeicheng was not only to rescue Zhu Linlang as agreed with the senior officials of the Imperial Guard of Da Chu, but also to explore the legendary magical skill of "Spring and Autumn Immortal Cicada".
After entering the city, he did not go directly to the agreed place, but first found a remote inn to settle down.
He understands that every step he takes now needs to be cautious. After all, he is in the hinterland of an enemy country.
In the inn room, Fang Yue carefully studied the information he had previously received from the senior officials of Da Chu's internal guards.
This intelligence described in detail Zhenbei City's defenses, troop distribution, and possible weaknesses.
He knew that this information was crucial to his next actions.
As night fell, Zhenbeicheng fell into silence.
However, this silence is only superficial, there are undercurrents, and all forces are secretly competing.
Fang Yue stayed in the inn until late at night. After confirming that no one was paying attention around him, he put on his night clothes and prepared to take action. He first went to the location agreed with the senior officials of Da Chu's internal guards as planned, which was the key for him to obtain further intelligence and supplies.
The agreed location was a seemingly ordinary house, but in fact it was a secret stronghold of Dachu's inner guards in Zhenbei City. Fang Yue avoided the guards nimbly and sneaked into the house. There were already people waiting in the house, and when they saw Fang Yue, they immediately handed over a sealed package.
"Grandmaster Fang Da, these are the supplies and information you need. Please check them." The man whispered.
Fang Yue took the package and quickly opened it to check. It contained not only the detailed maps and defense plans he needed, but also some specially made hidden weapons and medicines, which were obviously used for sneaking and fighting. He nodded with satisfaction and put the package away.
"Tell Mr. Chen that I will act according to the plan." Fang Yue thanked him in a low voice, then turned and left, disappearing into the night.
Next, Fang Yue followed the map and quietly sneaked in the direction of the Champion Hou Mansion in Zhenbeicheng.
Fang Yue knew that the Champion Hou Mansion was a heavily guarded place in Zhenbeicheng and was also the key to this operation. He must sneak into the Hou Mansion, find where Zhu Linlang is being held, and rescue him.
The night was dark, and the streets of Zhenbeicheng looked particularly quiet under the moonlight. Only the occasional patrol footsteps broke the tranquility. Fang Yue used the cover of night to shuttle through the alleys like a ghost, avoiding groups of patrolling soldiers.
He followed the map's guidance and arrived at the outskirts of the Champion's Mansion. The high walls of the Hou Mansion stand tall, and the walls are covered with lanterns, making the outline of the mansion clearly visible. Fang Yue observed the layout of the Hou Mansion, thinking about the best way to sneak in.
He knew that it was impossible to break in directly, and he had to find a place where the guards were relatively weak. After some observation, he found that there was a corner in the backyard of the Hou Mansion that seemed to be loosely guarded, and there was a dense bamboo forest there that could be used as cover.
Fang Yue approached the bamboo forest quietly. Using the cover of the bamboo, he easily climbed over the high wall and entered the backyard of the Hou Mansion. The backyard was empty except for a few lanterns swaying in the wind. He quickly walked through the backyard and arrived near the main building of the Hou Mansion.
He pressed against the wall and listened to what was going on inside. From time to time, the footsteps of patrolling guards could be heard, but he skillfully avoided them. He knew that Zhu Linlang, as an important hostage, must be detained in the most secure place in the Hou Mansion.
After some searching, Fang Yue finally found a heavily guarded courtyard. The entrance to the courtyard was heavily guarded, and the sound of chains could be heard inside the courtyard. His heart tightened, knowing that this was where Zhu Linlang was being imprisoned.
He observed the guard's shift change time, found a moment when the guard was negligent, and quickly took action to subdue the guard at the door.
He put on guard clothes and blended into the courtyard. (End of this chapter)
