The princess changed her widow's life by fortune-telling

Chapter 562 Who Will Retreat for Thousands of Years?

The rest of Zhang Yu went to the gate of the city, Xie Xuan asked Pei Zimo to stay here to wait for him, and walked over by himself.

He showed his token to the soldiers guarding the city, the two had a conversation in a low voice, and he walked back, telling Pei Zimo to go back to the carriage and wait.

Not long after, the city gate, which had only been opened a small gate, was opened from the inside, and then a group of people came out.

Xie Xuan pointed at the leader and said happily, "That is my father."

After he finished speaking, he jumped out of the carriage and went up to meet him.

Standing beside Bai Jinye, Pei Zimo didn't rush forward. After Xie Xuan and his son finished talking, the two came over together.

Although he was far away, Pei Zimo could clearly see Xie Xuan's father's surprise and anger when he saw Xie Xuan at the beginning, gradually turned into curiosity and hesitation, and finally followed Xie Xuan.

He cupped his hands towards Pei Zimo and Bai Jinye, "I'm Xie Zhilin, Huai'er has already told me everything about the two of you."

Pei Zimo looked at "Xie Xuan" and raised his eyebrows. It seemed that not only were they using fake names, but so was he.

He touched his nose and said in a low voice, "My name is actually Xie Huai, but I'm outside, so you have to be careful, I lied to you, I'm sorry."

Pei Zimo chuckled and just said, "Understood."

"Then why not go in and discuss it in detail." Xie Zhilin said.

"Okay." Pei Zimo took Bai Jinye's hand and followed him.

With Xie Zhilin leading the way, no one will question them anymore.

After they entered the gate, the city gate was closed again, leaving only the first small gate.

It has been too many years since Pei Zimo left the imperial city, and there is nothing in the imperial city that looks like she remembers, and the pedestrians on the road are all in a hurry, all looking nervous.

She sighed softly. Although the royal family and the witch family had been fighting against each other before, it was not as good as it is now.

Xie Zhilin took them all the way to the palace.

Looking at the mottled palace gate ahead, Pei Zimo stopped in his footsteps.

The royal palace of the royal family is known as the Immortal Palace, Zhu Yu Biwa, Qionglou Jinque.

But now, it is full of decay and desolation, and even a small piece of the palace wall not far away has collapsed.

Pei Zimo frowned tightly.

"What's wrong?" Xie Huai looked at Pei Zimo, "Is there something wrong?"

"It's okay." Pei Zimo shook his head, "I just didn't expect..."

She didn't say the second half of the sentence.

Xie Zhilin, who was on the side, also sighed, "The palace today is no longer comparable to the rumors. Now everyone is focusing on fighting the witch clan, and there is no time to repair it."

Pei Zimo pursed his lips before taking another step forward.

Entering the palace gate, the inside is even more dilapidated.

Pei Zimo couldn't bear to look at the surrounding scenery anymore. To her, this was her former home. If it is uncomfortable to say that things are just people, then people are neither things nor things.

After sitting down in the hall, Xie Zhilin said, "I don't know where you two are from?" He said, his eyes turned around the man in black robe standing behind Pei Zimo, "This person's aura seems a little strange."

"This is the puppet I made." Pei Zimo explained, and then said, "My husband and I have been retreating in the mountains for these years, and we just came out not long ago, but we don't want the outside world to be completely different from what we remember. gone."

Xie Zhilin frowned slightly, and asked again, "When did you start retreating?"

"When the Empress got married." Pei Zimo thought for a while, and felt that he could only talk about this time point.

Hearing this, Xie Zhilin's expression was a little weird, and it took him a long time to say, "It's been so long..."

Pei Zimo couldn't help it either, they had indeed been away for too long, and they didn't know anything about it.

Xie Zhilin also thought about it for a while, as if he couldn't remember what happened so long ago, and said, "After the empress got married, the royal family did have a short period of glory. At that time, the witch family became a turtle, but Not long after, people from the Witch Clan made a comeback, and not only the empress died, but the entire royal family was bloodbathed."

"Every member of the royal family who has any relationship with the royal family will be liquidated by the Wu family."

"Fortunately, the royal family did not compromise back then. Under the leadership of several generals, they have been fighting against the Wu family."

"It's just that the power of the witch clan is getting stronger and stronger, and the royal clan is barely supporting it now, and I don't know how long it can last."

"We got some news." Pei Zimo said, "The forbidden area of ​​the Wu Clan has a thing against the sky. They also rely on this thing to improve their strength. If there is no such thing, it would not be so difficult to fight against the Wu Clan. .”

Xie Zhilin frowned slightly, "How can it be so easy to enter the forbidden area of ​​the Wu clan? Since the whole clan relies on this thing, they will naturally guard it strictly. With our current strength, at most we can protect ourselves. Offensive, it's too difficult."

"We will do this." Pei Zimo turned his head and glanced at Bai Jinye, "But we may need to make some simple repairs here."

"Okay." Xie Zhilin nodded, "You two wait a moment, I'll ask someone to make arrangements." He stood up as he spoke, motioned Xie Huai to sit with them for a while, and left first.

After walking for a while, he looked back, and finally called someone, "Is the Wu tribe we caught last time still alive?"

"One more breath."

Xie Zhilin nodded, "Bring that person over later, and test these two people."

"My lord, you doubt them..."

"Well, the aura of that black-robed man is a bit strange." Xie Zhilin said with a chuckle, "Who would retreat for thousands of years? He just came out at this time and said that he had mastered the secrets of the Wu clan. Shall we bring in the Wu Clan to wipe them all out?"

"Yes." The man nodded and hurried down.

Xie Zhilin walked around outside before returning to the main hall, "Sorry, there are too few people now."

"Father, then I will take them..."

Before Xie Huai finished speaking, two people walked in at the door holding a dying person.

"My lord, this bastard..."

Before the man finished speaking, it seemed as if he had just discovered that there were other people in the hall, so he quickly swallowed the rest of the words, "My lord, then I will take the man away first, and report back later."

"No need." Xie Zhilin waved his hand, "Bring someone in, I just have something to ask."

"Yes." The two men dragged him in and threw him in the lobby.

Xie Zhilin raised his hand and struck a seal formula, the man's spirit seemed to be better.

He opened his eyes, turned his gaze around the hall, and landed directly on the man in black.

He struggled to climb a few steps towards the black-robed man, "My lord, my lord, save me, I didn't say anything, I didn't betray the witch clan, save me!"
