A few hours later.

The fog on the surface of the lake finally dissipated a little.

However, it was replaced by gunsmoke.

Zhu Feng stood at the bow of the ship, looking at the Langya Island on both sides that had been invaded by the war and captured by his own people, and breathed a sigh of relief.

This battle is indeed not easy to win.

He is not accustomed to water warfare, and the terrain of this place is not completely familiar, so this battle relies on the experience of past battles.

Next, I'm afraid it won't be so easy.

At this time, Ye Zhen stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the islands on both sides have been occupied by us. Four boats, two hundred bandits were seized. Also, the people who were taken captive before. ”

Zhu Feng immediately said: "What about those ships of the people? ”

Ye Zhen shook his head and said, "Not here." ”

Zhu Feng immediately frowned.

He slowly raised his head and looked into the depths of the mist—

According to Qin Ruolan, this place is only the periphery of the chain dock, and the center of the entire Xingluo Lake is the head of the chain dock.

There is no trace of the people of the country here, could it be that they have entered the center of Xingluo Lake?

Could it be that they have already met with the people of Tiangang Serial Dock?

If that's the case, then your footsteps must not stop here.

However, it is not so easy to get in.

Zhu Feng said: "Order, let our people get ready, and after sunset, head to the center of the lake." ”

Ye Zhen was shocked: "Your Majesty, do you want to fight?" ”

“……”

"We don't know anything about the situation inside Xingluo Lake; We don't know how many people there are in Tiangang Lianwu now. ”

“……”

"There's a good chance they've gotten the word here."

“……”

"Our men have suffered a lot of casualties after this battle, and they are very tired."

“……”

"If you keep fighting—"

Zhu Feng said coldly: "Do you want to teach me how to fight?" ”

"Don't dare."

When Ye Zhen heard what he said, he was frightened into a cold sweat.

After all, in the army, Zhu Feng's will is everything.

But after a while, he still gritted his teeth and insisted: "But the emperor, Weichen must consider your safety." ”

“……”

"Our preparations for this battle were not sufficient, and it was not easy to take Wolf's Tooth Island."

“……”

"If you rush into the center of Xingluo Lake, there will really be danger."

Zhu Feng still didn't speak.

But at this moment, a small boat came from behind, and after landing on the big ship, a message was passed to LinkedIn, the escort commander on board.

When he saw it, his face immediately changed in shock.

Hurriedly stepped forward: "Your Majesty." ”

"What's the matter?"

"Just now there was news from the Imperial Mausoleum Temple, the noble concubine Niangniang, she-"

As soon as Zhu Feng heard the news about Nanyan, he immediately turned his head, and a trace of nervousness flashed in his eyes.

"Concubine Niangniang, it seems that someone took it away."

“……！”

Zhu Feng's eyes widened suddenly: "What?!" ”

Ying Shao let out a deep breath and repeated again: "Guifei Niangniang, she was taken away." ”

“……”

Zhu Feng did not speak.

But his hands clenched all at once, and the wounded hand burst open, and blood soaked out of the bandages.

Ye Zhen was anxious, and hurriedly said, "What's the matter?" ”

Ying Shao said: "I don't know the specific situation yet, they just came to this news." ”

As he spoke, both of them looked up at Zhu Feng.

Zhu Feng gritted his teeth, his face showed deep marks, and he slowly turned his head and looked at the Langya Island filled with gunpowder.

After a while, he said word by word: "Go back to the imperial mausoleum!" ”

|

The boat finally left the lake where the smoke was still filled.

and rescued the captives.

Ye Zhen breathed a sigh of relief.

However, when he saw Zhu Feng Tieqing's face standing at the bow of the boat, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous, and his heart was even more uneasy.

Nanyan was taken captive?

Could it be that it is those people again?

If this is really the case, although the smoke on Xingluo Lake is extinguished, I am afraid that the smoke in the north will be ignited again.

Zhu Feng, will he go to war with the country, right?

Soon, the ship docked.

Without even waiting for the people on the shore to tie the ropes, Zhu Feng jumped directly from the bow of the boat onto the trestle bridge, and Ye Zhen and the others hurriedly followed, and soon, they arrived at the Imperial Mausoleum.

Zhu Feng walked in and rushed directly to Nanyan's room, which was of course empty.

And none of her things are missing.

Zhu Feng glanced at it, his eyes were a little red, and he returned to his quiet room, where there were already kneeling people, all begging him to spare his life.

Zhu Feng looked at them with a calm face: "What's the matter?" ”

“……”

"Say!"

At this time, a weak voice sounded from the side: "Your Majesty, they don't know anything. ”

Zhu Feng raised his head.

I saw Qin Ruolan walking over slowly.

Her expression was still as cold as usual, but her face was a little pale.

Zhu Feng said: "Then, you know? ”

Qin Ruolan took a deep breath and said, "This morning, the concubine wanted to come to the emperor, but the concubine told her that the emperor had left. ”

“……”

"Then, the concubine went to worship the tomb of the immortals, and the concubine proposed to go with the concubine."

“……”

"So, we went to the island together."

“……”

"Then, the concubine left first, and the concubine said that she would stay on it for a while."

“……”

"But then—"

She took a deep breath and said, "I haven't seen her come down for a long time, and when we went up to look again, we found that the concubine was gone." ”

“……”

At this point, she stopped.

Zhu Feng stared at her.

In his eyes, he seemed to have a flame.

After a long silence, he said, "You come in with me." ”

After speaking, he turned around and entered his quiet room, and Qin Ruolan didn't say anything, so he followed in.

Zhu Feng said again: "Close the door." ”

"Yes."

She turned and closed the door.

The people outside looked at each other, and they were a little confused, but Ye Zhen stood at the door, his brows already twisted into a pimple.

He, of course, knew that something was definitely wrong.

Zhu Feng sat on the chair behind the table, there was no light in the room, and the doors and windows were closed, which inexplicably added a bit of gloom to his cold face.

Qin Ruolan stood in front of him and looked at him calmly.

Zhu Feng said: "What did you tell her?" ”

“……！”

Although that face was habitually cold, when he heard Zhu Feng ask like this, Qin Ruolan's heart still jumped involuntarily.

She slowly raised her head and looked at Zhu Feng.

I saw that his face was gloomy, and his eyes were like sharp swords, trying to see through her body.

He said word by word: "What did you say to her?!" ”
