On the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month, the late winter and spring have not yet arrived, and the weather is still cold, but a few insect chirpings can be heard in this silent night.

These spring insects should have woken up early, and I don't know if they will freeze to death by this cold weather, Li Man thought to himself in the courtyard. Then she laughed to herself, how could she worry about these insects for no reason.

The waning moon bent and shone faintly, and she spread out her palms and looked carefully at the small dead branches in her palms. Jiang Taigong's intermittent soul incense was won by her after all, but this small piece of thing, is it really that magical?

"It's so late, why hasn't Her Royal Highness the eldest princess rested?" Chiyuki came out of the house.

"Some of them are upset and can't sleep well." Li Man flipped his wrist and hid the intermittent soul incense in his sleeve.

"Even if you can't sleep, it's better to stay in the room, it's freezing outside, don't catch a cold." Qianxue said that she was worried that Li Man was weak and contracted a cold disease.

"It's not in the way, I've been stuffy in the palace for a long time, and now that I'm outside, I want to take the opportunity to breathe a few more breaths of fresh air." Li Man said with a smile.

"Having said that, if the eldest princess is really sick, how can the slave explain to His Royal Highness the Prince." Qianxue also said with a smile, unzipping her cloak and draping it on her.

"Your Highness..."

"How long have you been with him?" After Li Man muttered, he suddenly asked.

"It's been nearly a year or so, and it was only after His Highness returned to the imperial capital that the lady ordered me to be a personal guard." Qianxue thought for a moment and responded.

"It won't be long." Li Man nodded.

"Although the time is not very long, the slave maid always has a feeling, as if she has followed His Highness for a long, long time, very familiar, and very reassured." Qianxue said softly.

"He—" Li Man just opened his mouth, about to say something.

"Princess, be careful."

A snow-white sword light flashed, adding a bit of chill to the already cold air. With a crisp sound, Qianxue pulled out the Frost Sword and pulled away a loop dart that shot out of nowhere, and reached out to pull Li Man behind her.

Did you find it so quickly? Qianxue's brows furrowed, deeply surprised. According to His Highness's plan to get rid of the golden cicada, it should be able to delay for some time.

"Hehe, that kid really has some ability, and he can avoid the surveillance of many ears and eyes and send you out." A charming chuckle came from the shadows, and a bewitching woman appeared, followed by two people.

Qianxue didn't know who the woman in front of her was, but the old man who followed her was very familiar, it was Meng Yuan, who had fought in Xie Mansion at the beginning, known as a butcher, and had been injured by Aunt Lan.

"Xie Wanyi?" Li Man looked directly at the woman not far away and recognized the person.

"Doesn't my fourth brother want me to go to the Qi Kingdom? Want to take this opportunity to force Empress Wu Niangniang to step down? She said with a slight bitterness.

The woman smiled slightly and said, "The Demon Queen has been stealing the country for a long time, and now that His Majesty is about to die, he should return the throne to the virtuous prince, clean up the government, and restore the stability of the world." ”

"The fourth brother is for his own selfish desires, regardless of the safety of the people of Great Qin, how can he be called virtuous?" Li Man asked rhetorically, his voice calm, not righteous words, impassioned. Because she knew that it was pointless, this woman was the fourth brother's most trusted confidant, and she came to kill herself.

"I'm curious, how did you find us?" Qianxue asked suddenly, she was very puzzled in her heart, and she felt incredulous. With the wisdom of His Highness, how could he be spotted so quickly!

"Heh, just a little bit of insect carving skills from your Royal Highness, how can you hide it from me?" Xie Wanyi sneered, said rather disdainfully, and didn't mean to explain to her.

When Qianxue heard this, a cold glint flashed in her eyes, and under this woman's words, she was very contemptuous of Jing Ge, which made her extremely angry. If it weren't for the princess to protect the princess and beware of the two King Realm powerhouses behind her, he would have stepped forward to teach her a good lesson.

"The little girl is very good at bluffing, but she relied on the yin and yang pupils of the two mothers and daughters in Misty Island to see through the princess who was not in the car, and calculated the direction with hexagrams." Aunt Hua pushed open the door and said.

"I see." Qianxue's mood suddenly relaxed a lot.

"Oh? I don't want to hide a master like you in this Gusu City, forgive Wanyi for being rude. She bowed slightly, her face smiling, her expression still calm, but her heart was quite shocked.

This gray-haired woman is by no means ordinary, not only does she know her mind, but she also knows the existence of those two mother and daughter, and she is also a martial arts master. Before entering this courtyard, the two worshippers were not aware of her existence in advance, indicating that she was also a powerhouse in the royal realm.

Yu Guang swept over the two worshippers behind him, and found that the two worshippers had solemn expressions when they saw this woman, obviously their judgment was not wrong.

"Wanyi just wanted to invite Her Royal Highness the princess back to the house as a guest, and she had no intention of making enemies with her predecessors, if the seniors didn't interfere, the Xie family and King Su would be grateful in the future." Xie Wanyi said in a deep voice.

"Hmph." Aunt Hua just sneered and didn't answer.

When the woman saw Aunt Hua like this, she knew that she would definitely not stand idly by, nor would she be afraid of King Xie Jiasu. A chill suddenly arose in his heart, and the killing machine gradually rose.

Even if she is a king realm, it shouldn't be a problem for her own family to hold her back, and the other person should naturally suppress Qianxue steadily, and then wait for the opportunity to kill Li Man and Li Yao. She thought about it in her heart and glanced at the two worshippers behind her.

To her surprise, the two worshippers shook their heads slightly, motioning for her to retreat, unwilling to make a move.

"Okay, since the seniors are not happy, then Wanyi won't bother much and leave." When she saw that the two worshippers were like this, she did not drag the mud and water at all, and her mind turned very quickly, and she immediately climbed over the courtyard wall and retreated.

"Why don't you do it?" After leaving the courtyard, her face was so gloomy that she was about to drip water, and her mood was very bad when she returned in vain.

"Is that woman too strong?" She asked, this time she brought the two kings out, she thought it would be foolproof, but they didn't dare to make a move.

"It's not that the woman is too powerful, it's that the yard is weird." Meng Yuan frowned, in that courtyard, he felt very uneasy, as if he was in a cage.

"There is a magic circle arranged there, which has great restrictions on the realm of our kings." The other also spoke.

"That woman knows all these tricks? I don't want to have such characters in this market. Xie Wanyi was quite surprised, she couldn't feel it in the courtyard, because the realm was not enough.

"So wait for them to get out of the place." Xie Wanyi looked in the direction of Jiang Zhai and said coldly. She is not in a hurry, anyway, Li Man and the others will have to leave Gusu sooner or later.

"Let's go back to the house first." Aunt Hua sighed lightly and said, "It's a pity that the unequaled children are not here, otherwise they would have to be left behind." ”

There is a peerless magic circle announced by Jiang Tai here, which can make her invincible, but she can't leave those two kings, so she didn't make a move.

Qianxue was secretly surprised, she didn't notice anything wrong here before, but the moment Aunt Hua appeared, she clearly felt the trajectory of the aisle spreading on the ground, and the hidden magic circle suddenly came to life, and the murderous lurking was terrifying.

"Now that they have discovered the whereabouts of the princess, the slave maid should inform His Highness as soon as possible." Qianxue said in a deep voice.

As soon as she finished speaking, two or three extremely powerful breaths suddenly erupted from the outskirts of the northwest city of Gusu.

In that direction, could it be that His Highness is fighting with people? She stared at it carefully, and hesitated in her heart, wondering whether she should leave the princess and take a look.

"What's wrong?" Although Li Man couldn't sense this aura, he found that Aunt Hua and Qianxue were looking in the northwest direction at the same time.

"Nothing." Qianxue shook her head lightly and said, since Her Royal Highness asked her to protect the princess, she should not leave an inch.

"If you want to go there, go there, with me here, I can keep the two sisters safe." Aunt Hua saw the worry in her eyes and spoke.

"Okay, I'll go and get back quickly." Qianxue nodded, she was indeed worried that Jing Ge would be in danger, and in her heart, her Royal Highness was more important than these two princesses.

Just as she was about to leave, the courtyard door creaked open.

"Jingge?" Li Man shouted, and she could see the figure walking in through the faint light of the sky.

"Your Highness." Qianxue's voice was slightly surprised, and her hanging heart was also put down. "Their whereabouts have been discovered."

Jing Ge nodded, "Well, I know. They have spiritual masters who are proficient in the art of Qimen, and they can measure the direction, but I miscalculated. ”

"What can I do?" Hearing this, Qian Xue said that if they couldn't hide their whereabouts, even Murong God King might not be able to protect them here. All kinds of means can't be prevented, and those people are very insidious.

Jing Ge smiled slightly, "There is an old god stick living here, I think there will be a way to deal with it." ”

After saying that, he bowed down and saluted Aunt Hua, "Sister Hua, don't come to harm." ”

"Hmph, flamboy." Aunt Hua snorted coldly, her face softened a lot, "What's going on on the outskirts of the city?" ”

While they were talking, there was still a violent aura surging on the outskirts of the city, obviously several peerless masters were dueling.

"Where's Zhao Xian's father-in-law?" Li Man suddenly asked, those guards are difficult to distinguish between good and evil, and they don't know that they have been bought, and they must be separated from them. But Zhao Xian is a confidant of the Empress Wu's faction, and he can be trusted, so he should come with Jing Ge.

"Zhao Xian's father-in-law...... Now they are fighting people on the outskirts of the city. Jing Ge replied after a moment of silence.

"Then you... Not going to help him? Li Man hesitated for a while and said, she didn't know if Jing Ge had the ability to help, and she didn't know whether she should ask him to help, so she had to ask tentatively.

"It's too late, Zhao Xian's father-in-law will die outside the city later." Jing Ge shook his head and said.

"How so?" There was a mist in Li Man's eyes, she knew Zhao Xian when she was very young, Zhao Xian also liked her a lot, she often brought her some gadgets when she was young, and then she grew older, so she rarely had contact.

"On the way, he was attacked by someone, and he was fatally wounded with only one blow, and he had no time to rescue." Jing Ge said expressionlessly, he didn't want to explain more, but seeing Li Man's sad look, he still said it.

"One blow?" Qianxue gasped, shocked in her heart. Zhao Xian's martial arts cultivation is among the strongest in the world, still above himself and His Highness. Even he was killed with one blow, if that person made a move on His Highness, how to deal with it?

Jing Ge nodded, frowning slightly, recalling the previous scene in his mind.

The stars were dim, the waning moon was faint, and the snow had not subsided, and he and Zhao Xian swept through the forest outside Gusu City.

The retreat of the thieves who followed their convoy alerted him, and he soon realized that Li Man's tracks had been detected. Therefore, he secretly left the escort team with Zhao Xian and prepared to join them at Jiang Mansion.

"Boom, boom, boom...", a few creepy laughter came from the forest.

Jing Ge and Zhao Xian stopped, and saw three people standing in front of them, who were the two leaders of the Wang Realm and the man in black yesterday. The eerie laugh was made by an old man who looked like a skeleton.

"Old Man Skeleton." Zhao Xian recognized the person, he was a worshipper in the Weiyang Palace, and he had besieged the War King with seven other people.

Jing Ge hung a long sword at his waist and looked at the visitor with an indifferent expression.

"If the three of them don't retreat quickly, they will pay for it." Zhao Xian said coldly.

"Hehe, if there is chaos today, I still advise my father-in-law to choose the Lord and serve him, and don't give up his life in vain." The man hidden in the black-cloaked man said in an indistinguishable voice, clearly not wanting to be recognized.

The corners of Jing Ge's mouth curved a little, and he said with a chuckle, "Choose the Lord and serve him?" Could it be that Gonggong Zhao wants to change a master in three days like Mr. Ouyang, you are a wall grass? ”

The man in black shook his body involuntarily when he heard this, but he didn't expect Jing Ge to already know who he was, but it made his deliberate concealment look as ridiculous as a clown.

"Hmph, Jingge, you abolish my child, I won't break your body into thousands of pieces tonight, it's hard to understand the hatred in my heart." Ouyang Tong saw that he was recognized by Jing Ge, and immediately stopped hiding, and said through gritted teeth.

"With the three of you, you want to keep me and Your Highness? I guess it's too underestimating this seat. Zhao Xian said.

As soon as the words came out, he suddenly realized that the skeleton old man and Ouyang Tong had been in Weiyang Palace with him for a long time, and they were more or less aware of their cultivation. How do you think you can intercept yourself with three people?

"Not good, Your Highness. These three people probably want to hold on to the throne for a while, so that they can attack the princess. Please go and protect them quickly, and wait until I have packed up these few pieces before I go to you." Zhao Xian whispered to Jing Ge.

Jing Ge nodded and left directly, without saying much. With Zhao Xian here, these three people couldn't get away from chasing themselves.

After leaving a distance and about to disappear at the end of his vision, Jing Ge stopped and glanced back.

In the dim moonlight, in an instant, a violent breath burst out. In the snow in the forest, a white practice burst out without warning, incredibly fast, flashing like thunder.

What's that?
