The dark clouds covered the sun, and the cold wind blew, and Xiao Jinxuan's skirt was blown and swayed.

As the saying goes, the mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings, and it is obvious that a heavy rain is about to arrive at midnight.

But for all this around her, Xiao Jinxuan didn't seem to feel it at all.

Because she was stunned, her eyes were staring at the red shadow, and the whole person stood there, completely stunned on the spot.

After another period of time, Xiao Jinxuan murmured in a deep voice:

"You said that Xianyu died in battle? How could a good man die in battle, he promised me to wait for him to come back, and then we left the right and wrong of the Jingshi. He clearly said that he would come back, I don't believe anything will happen to him, even if it is for me, he should live well. ”

Recovering from her extreme shock and grief, all that Xiao Jinxuan was left with was boundless anger and uneasiness.

Therefore, when she stepped forward, she grabbed the front of the red shadow's clothes.

Then his eyes flashed, and he looked like he was going to eat the other party alive, and asked loudly:

"Who sent you to tell me this, Red Shadow Now that you are no longer following King Rui, how can you know about this kind of urgent letter for eight hundred miles. If you don't tell the people behind the scenes, don't say that I don't want to miss the old love. ”

The sound on Xiao Jinxuan's side woke up the others after all, and seeing that Ling Xiao Agar, Bai Chu and others had already arrived.

Immediately, Xiao Jinxuan pointed to the red shadow who was still kneeling on the ground on one knee, and then said with murderous intent:

"I'm still stunned what to do, I tied up the red shadow immediately, and dared to curse in front of me like this, even if you die a hundred times, it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in my heart."

Although in the past, Bai Chu and Chiying also had some friendship, and Ling Xiao Agar can be said to be a hidden guard trained by the other party and Chi Ling.

But now that Xiao Jinxuan has spoken, although Bai Chu and the others have not yet figured out the situation in front of them, they still did not hesitate to catch Chiying.

With one enemy and three enemies, Red Shadow seems to be at a disadvantage, but his martial arts are still above Red Spirit, so he is not only easy to deal with, but continues to preach calmly in his mouth:

"Your Royal Highness, what is the relationship between Chi Ling and you, I think you know best in your heart, and I will never do anything to deceive you for the sake of Chi Ling. Moreover, the news of the death of the royal king in battle was sent to Forsythia by Guo Yi, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and his wife was privately transmitted to the Forsythia Temple. The Baizhu girl who stayed in the courtyard found me and Chi Ling in order to let the county lord know the news as soon as possible. ”

In fact, it is not so much that Xiao Jinxuan does not trust Chiying, but rather that she is unable to face the fact that Zhou Xianyu died in battle.

But seeing that Chiying, Bai Chu and the others, after fighting in one place, Xiao Jinxuan, who slowly calmed down, still spoke out to stop a few people.

If it is said that Xiao Jinxuan will still have doubts about the red shadow, but if this news is really transmitted by Guo Yi, then it must be true.

Suddenly I felt a burst of earth-shaking dizziness in front of her, Xiao Jinxuan was unsteady on her feet, and she actually fell directly to the ground.

Xiangping, who arrived a little slower, saw this scene, and immediately looked anxious, and hurriedly stepped forward to help Xiao Jinxuan up.

"Why did you fall down so well, Jinxuan, your face is so bad now, what the hell is going on, why are you so serious with each of you's expressions."

Because he has always had a deep relationship with Xiangping, and the other party is still Zhou Xianyu's sister.

Immediately, the discomfort in Xiao Jinxuan's heart couldn't be suppressed, and tears burst out of her eyes in an instant.

"Xiangping, something happened to Xianyu, and the front came to report that he was besieged by many countries, and now he has died in battle. But I don't believe it, and I don't dare to believe it's true. So I'm going to enter the palace right away, and I have to figure everything out. Even if he is really dead, I will take a look at Xianyu's corpse. ”

I didn't expect that Xiangping, who would hear such bad news, has always had a very deep relationship with this seventh brother.

Therefore, when she saw Xiao Jinxuan crying, she couldn't help crying, and then, like Xiao Jinxuan, she wanted to return to the palace like an arrow, so as to know whether the news was true or false.

Originally, Xiao Jinxuan's three daughters came to the City God Temple, but when she went back this time, because Meng Liangjun insisted on staying in Rabbit Ridge, the people in the congregation had no time to dissuade her.

So in the end, Xiao Jinxuan ordered Zhuxin to stay and take care of the other party for the time being, while she and Xiangping sat in a carriage and rushed to the direction of Jingshi overnight.

Now the city gate has already fallen at this hour, so when Xiao Jinxuan and them finally rushed back from Rabbit Ridge, they were blocked by this city gate.

The carriage of the Xiao family in the Shuai Mansion is extremely easy to recognize because of the tiger totem.

At the same time, there is a tiger totem, and a carriage marked with the name of Yongchang Wangfu, so there is only Xiao Jinxuan in the entire Beijing Division.

And coincidentally, it was Ji Lingfeng who was in charge of patrolling the city gate tonight, so he immediately smiled at the call from the city and shouted:

"Sitting in the carriage is the county lord of Zhaoyang, how can you not get out of the car when you meet old friends."

Xiao Jinxuan, who sat in the carriage and tried her best to keep herself calm.

After hearing that the person talking outside was Ji Lingfeng, she immediately knew that if she wanted to enter the city, if she didn't get out of the carriage, she might not be able to do it easily.

After thinking everything through in her heart, Xiao Jinxuan immediately lifted the curtain of the car door, and then ignored the raindrops that had fallen scattered outside, and she looked up at the city gate.

"Ji Lingfeng, I don't want to waste words with you today, I am the county lord of the royal family's record clan, so although this city gate has fallen, I am qualified to order you to open it immediately. If you dare to deliberately make things difficult, I will immediately order my guards to break in, and then it will really make a big fuss, and I will see how you end up. ”

Although Xiao Jinxuan doesn't have many people around her now, it is rare that all of them are elites, and there is also a red shadow in the back, and it is not without a chance to break into the city.

Although he was standing on the city wall, Xiao Jinxuan's strong murderous aura that could not be dissolved all over his body still made Ji Lingfeng feel shocked, and he clearly knew that the words of the other party were by no means scaring him.

A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he felt that Xiao Jinxuan's current performance was full of anxiety no matter how he looked at it.

Because he is often in the barracks now, Ji Lingfeng is not like in the past, staying in the prince's mansion.

So about Zhou Xianyu's death in battle, in fact, Ji Lingfeng didn't know about it.

But despite this, this still does not affect Ji Lingfeng's keen insight that has always been different from ordinary people, and he knows that in this world, the only person who can have such a big impact on Xiao Jinxuan is Zhou Xianyu.

Immediately, Ji Lingfeng couldn't help but guess in his heart, I am afraid that the battle ahead will inevitably change, and Zhou Xianyu must have had an accident.

Knowing that if his guess was not wrong, then Xiao Jinxuan now, although her face is quite calm.

But Gu Ji Lingfeng's understanding of Xiao Jinxuan, the current other party must be an enraged lioness, whoever commits it in her hands at this time, I am afraid that he will have to shed his skin if he does not die.

Originally, he really planned to embarrass Xiao Jinxuan, but he immediately changed his mind, and immediately asked his subordinates to open the city gate without hesitation.

Looking at the carriage that was heading towards the imperial city without a moment's delay, Ji Lingfeng was even more convinced that his speculation was not wrong.

Looking at the sky where the dark clouds were pressing down and the rain was getting heavier and heavier, Ji Lingfeng reached out and took off all the soft armor he was wearing.

"I've endured it for so long, and now it's a chance. Without Zhou Xianyu's containment, King Rui is also far away in Gansu, and now is the best opportunity for His Royal Highness the Prince to turn his disadvantage. And this is also my Ji Lingfeng's chance to rise to the top, it seems that it is time to return to the new palace. ”‘

As soon as he finished saying this, Ji Lingfeng didn't pay attention to the surprised eyes of the officers and soldiers around him.

Instead, he went straight down the castle tower laughing, and disappeared into the night after a while.

On Xiao Jinxuan's side, she didn't know at all that because of her gaffe under the city gate, Ji Lingfeng saw the flaws, and even took the opportunity to secretly guess everything.

As for the current Xiao Jinxuan, although she rushed to the imperial city, she was stopped by the palace guards.

Even if there is still Xiangping, the eighth princess, standing next to her, the palace rules are set, and after nightfall, unless there is an urgent report of the military situation, it is not allowed to open the city gate.

And Xiangping, who originally swore that she would definitely take Xiao Jinxuan into the palace, was fighting with the forbidden army that blocked the way, and she was so angry that her face was red.

Suddenly, a golden jade pendant was thrown in front of those guards, and then Xiao Jinxuan also got off the carriage and came to the front with a cold expression.

"If the identity of the princess Xiangping is not enough, then with this golden dragon and jade pendant that enters and leaves the palace at will, it should always allow you to open the gate of the imperial city. It's not difficult for me to be sorry for you, just let me and Xiangping enter the palace, and the rest of the people, including the carriage, will all stay outside the palace, so it should be okay. ”

Those who originally held the golden dragon and jade pendant in their hands could freely enter and leave the palace at any time.

But today, the orders received by these forbidden troops are a first-level ban, and no matter who they are summoned by the emperor himself, no matter who they are, they must not be put in.

But seeing that Xiangping was a princess, Xiao Jinxuan's identity was even more unusual, so after thinking about it slightly, the commander of the forbidden army nodded and agreed to the other party's proposal.

Without the carriage, Xiao Jinxuan and Xiangping, who walked into the palace alone with Wuxin and others, were also accompanied by Wu Xin and others.

Just braving the rain, falling and getting up, getting up and falling down to help each other, stumbling, and rushing to the front of Emperor Ming's imperial study in embarrassment.

Looking at the imperial study that is still brightly lit and has figures swaying from time to time. Xiao Jinxuan motioned to Xiangping, who was about to lose his strength. Rest in place first.

Ignoring the tiredness of being covered in mud and weakness because of several falls, she gritted her teeth and walked towards the imperial study.

But as soon as Xiao Jinxuan walked outside the imperial study, before she could go in, Deng Chang, who was standing outside waiting for Emperor Ming's orders in the palace, stretched out his hand to stop her.

looked at Xiao Jinxuan's embarrassment, her face was bloodless, and her hands were as cold as ice.

Deng Chang, who had already practiced in the palace and was about to become a master, already knew in his heart that Xiao Jinxuan probably knew about Zhou Xianyu, so he rushed over at such a big night, and even didn't care about his appearance.

Immediately hurriedly draped himself on his body and used it to protect himself from the cold. Hurriedly untie it and wrap it around Xiao Jinxuan.

Then Deng Chang said with comfort:

"Lord Zhaoyang, you are mourning, and our saint also shed tears on the spot after knowing that the king died in battle. But people cannot be resurrected after death, and those who are alive still have to continue to walk the road of their lives. Now in the imperial study, because of the affairs of His Royal Highness, the princes and ministers are still deliberating, and the emperor may not have time to see you, so the county lord should go back first. ”

But although Deng Chang had good intentions, Xiao Jinxuan didn't figure out Zhou Xianyu's affairs today, how could she leave willingly.

Therefore, seeing that there is a discussion inside, Deng Chang will not give himself a gift.

So Xiao Jinxuan took advantage of the other party's inattention, so she directly reached out and pushed the door of the imperial study open, and then walked in without hesitation.
