But now that she is here, it is still difficult not to attract attention.

Su Lingzhi froze, "Sir, how can I contact you?"

"Come to the mirror hall on Yuanniang's mountain to find me. Do you know Yuanniang?" asked Feng Zhizhu tentatively.

"Acquaintance, thank you sir, today's great kindness, Su Lingzhi is unforgettable, and he will repay him in the future," After speaking, Su Lingzhi pushed open the window and jumped out of the window at once.

Feng Zhizhu shook his head: "This guy walks fast, and it looks like such a serious injury, but it doesn't affect her movements much." ”

Meng Li, Tiger Roaring Ridge.

This is probably the most precipitous place in Mengli City.

Bai Huan thought.

She was followed by her newly promoted minister, Ning Feng, and the two of them climbed the steps with some difficulty.

The mountain is so steep that if you don't pay attention to it, you're in danger of falling.

Bai Huan was fine, but Ning Feng behind him was already out of breath.

"How did the empress think of climbing this mountain today" Ning Feng almost couldn't kick his breath, and said with some difficulty.

Beads of sweat also oozed from Bai Huan's slippery jade-like neck, she lifted her thin skirt and said lightly: "You don't want to"

"Don't dare!" These words frightened Ning Feng, and under the fright, she almost fell down the steps for only one person, but fortunately, her body barely stabilized her balance, seeing that Bai Huan's face did not change much, a heart was put back in her stomach, Bai Huan, as an empress, has a lot of power, and her future is all in the hands of this beautiful woman.

Ning Feng stole a glance at Bai Huan.

"What to see"

These words frightened Ning Feng, her heart beat hard, and finally looked at Bai Huan's side face, and said cautiously: "The empress came to climb this mountain, because Meng Li has had frequent strange things in recent days, so she is in a depressed mood."

Bai Huan did not deny it, but lowered her head, the sunlight jumped on her eyelashes, looking extremely beautiful, she said indifferently: "Recently, Meng Li's strange things have happened frequently, I am naturally irritable, and the danger of watching the mountain peaks can open my mind." ”

After saying that, looking at the verdant almost endless pine forest in front of her, she took a deep breath, and a kind of annoyance flowed from her pretty face, as if she was forcing herself to forget those things.

Su Lingzhi was not there, and there was not even anyone to speak.

Bai Huan misses her.

Su Lingzhi has been with her for a long time, and she was also there when she was at the most critical time of the founding of the country, and her talent is also one of the best in Meng Li, and Meng Li's important ministers are extremely rare, and now that she is gone, Meng Li is such a high-ranking official who has been strangely cut off her head, Bai Huan doesn't even have someone to negotiate, so she naturally misses her tightly.

"If Su Lingzhi is still by my side, I will definitely be able to say a rule for the current situation."

Bai Huan sighed lowly.

Ning Feng lowered his head and didn't dare to say a word.

"Empress, we're here."

"Hmm."

At the top of the mountain, there is a huge pine tree.

The canopy of the tree is like an umbrella cover, covering the entire top of the mountain.

Bai Huan lifted her skirt and sat down there.

From a distance, Meng Licheng is under his feet, and people come and go, which is very prosperous.

Mengli Metropolis is a different scenery from Yaojing, the winding alleys are deep, the path is narrow but poetic, the houses are not dense, scattered, whether rich or poor, all mixed, Mengli Metropolis has a strange harmony, and this harmony is what Yaojing does not have.

Yaojing is beautiful and colorful, but there is a sense of alienation.

It's not as majestic and amiable as Mengli City.

The wind blew on Bai Huan's face, the top of the mountain was really different from other places, and the scenery she saw was also different, she suddenly felt a little unbearable, why did she think of that place again

Yaojing, the place that gave her nightmares.

Who would have thought, once this emotion emerges, it can no longer be suppressed, and countless past events pour into her mind, as if she wants to be cut off, does she still love that man

She thought to herself, a little confused.

I don't love it anymore, but the shadow of that man still lingers in her heart, and that past is destined to be inerasible.

Bai Huan was a little disgusted, she would never have anything to do with that man in love again in her life, but if he was a stranger and did not exist, Bai Huan still couldn't do it.

At this time, she suddenly heard a dinging sound.

This sound even Ning Feng was alarmed, she became nervous, only to see that on the thick trunk of the pine tree, there was a secret weapon with a delicate shape like a plum blossom, and the corners of the hidden weapon bloomed, like a hook, firmly nailed to the trunk, and it was so tightly cut that even Ning Feng couldn't take it off, Bai Huan's heart was shocked, and a strand of hair was clearly lying on the rock.

Just now, this hidden weapon cut off her hair, and it almost hit her neck.

Apparently the person was trying to give her a reminder, or, a warning.

Ning Feng frowned.

The empress was derelict in her duty to be harmed in the slightest.

She is a one-in-a-million martial arts master, and one of her important responsibilities is to protect the safety of the empress.

Ning Feng's eyes were shining, he took a closer look at this hidden weapon, and said sharply: "Who is it?"

A faint voice came from the canopy: "Hey, I thought it was the old guy, but I didn't expect the old guy to escape." ”

Ning Feng was startled, took out the saber she was carrying and wanted to go up, Bai Huan stopped her, with her experience in dealing with people in the rivers and lakes, this person should not have any hostility, she said lightly: "Your Excellency, why don't you show up?"

As soon as she finished speaking, there was a stir in the bushes, and a man in a green cloth robe with white leggings stood in front of her, glanced at her, and commented: "Well, it's a beauty." ”

"You" Seeing that Ning Feng's saber was about to be pulled out again, Bai Huan stopped her again.

She said indifferently: "Your Excellency and I don't interfere with the river water, and our martial arts may not be able to beat my subordinates." ”

"That's, that's." The man glanced at her a few times, but his gaze didn't mean to be obscene, "You were sent by that old guy."

Bai Huan thought about it, this man didn't seem to know himself at all, so he simply deceived him, there must be something to spread the word in this kind of deep mountains and wild forests, she said: "Is the old guy that the strong man refers to Chen Shangshu?"

Meng Li's Ministry of Works, Chen Mingkun, is Meng Li's oldest minister, but Bai Huan's thoughts moved, and now she can't think of any good ideas, so she just gambles.

"Exactly." The man said happily, "I didn't expect that old guy to have such a beautiful little lady working for him, the old guy is very happy." ”

A thin layer of anger appeared on Ning Feng's face, Bai Huan glanced at her and ordered her to be silent, the anger on Ning Feng's face quickly disappeared, but the man didn't seem to notice their actions at all, and laughed: "Little lady, you go and tell the old guy that if you want his family to live, hand over the edict of Meng Li's previous dynasty, otherwise his family will become a headless corpse like his beautiful concubines!" ”

The more Bai Huan listened, the more puzzled she became, and when she heard the words of the edict of the previous dynasty, she really couldn't help but grab this person and ask what was going on, but this person didn't give her a chance at all, she quickly jumped on the canopy and disappeared on the cliff at a very fast speed, leaving only his arrogant laughter: "Haha, little lady, you are also a concubine of that old guy, go quickly, the master only needs the edict of the previous dynasty, and nothing else!" ”

By the time he had finished speaking, the man had already vanished.

Ning Feng was extremely angry, her face turned red, and she knelt down with a plop: "The subordinates failed to protect the empress, and the empress was almost humiliated, all of them were incompetent, and I hope the empress will punish her subordinates heavily." ”

"Get up." Bai Huan said lightly, but his voice carried an air of non-anger and self-authority, "Today's incident, you can't be blamed entirely on it, but the secret weapon incident is indeed your dereliction of duty, and there is no next time." ”

Bai Huan looked at her steadily, and Ning Feng knelt aside, "If there is a next time, you will be punished." ”

Ning Feng shuddered and said tremblingly, "Yes." ”

Then, she got up from the ground.

Bai Huan glanced at the dart nailed to the tree again, and motioned for Ning Feng to take it off, Bai Huan took it in his hand and slowly enjoyed it, it was really a delicate hidden weapon, and I don't know whose handiwork Bai Huan frowned, and pondered quietly for a while, "Let's go, go back and ask that old guy what the hell is going on." ”

A layer of anger suddenly appeared on Bai Huan's face: "There is such a big thing in his family, I don't even know that Chen Mingkun's courage is really getting bigger and bigger!" ”

Ning Feng knew that the empress was angry, and he didn't dare to refute it, so he lowered his head and said, "Yes." ”

Bai Huan walked up and down from such a steep Tiger Roaring Ridge, and when she returned to the palace, she was exhausted, but she couldn't take a break, and immediately summoned Chen Mingkun.

Chen Mingkun came quite quickly, and after Bai Huan went back, it was already time for dinner, but this guy actually rushed to the palace in a well-dressed manner in only one cup of tea.

Bai Huan sat on the dragon chair high on the ground, his eyebrows were still clearly showing a sense of anger, Chen Mingkun knelt down and fell to the ground, Bai Huan didn't call him up for a long time, just squinted slightly, the two palace maids next to him slowly fanned, the air was dull, everyone knew that the empress was angry, and she was careful in doing things, for fear that something would anger the empress.

Chen Mingkun knelt for a long time, his body was already sore, and he was about to lose his support, staggering, and about to fall.

Bai Huan finally opened his beautiful eyes and said lightly: "Get up." ”

Chen Mingkun stood up.

His face was pale.

"What's the matter with the empress?"

Bai Huan knocked on the pineapple table slightly with his hand, "I went to Tiger Roaring Mountain alone, and I saw your acquaintance today." ”

Chen Mingkun trembled uncontrollably.

Before she could say the next sentence, Chen Mingkun knelt down: "Empress Mingjian!" The minister is guilty! But the minister didn't dare, the old minister was afraid that if he reported to the empress, the life of the old minister's family would not be saved! ”

Bai Huan's eyes flashed with a glimmer of essence, to be honest, she was a little happy in her heart now.

Recently, she is anxious about Meng Li's headless corpse case.
