What exactly is this place? Is it still a hunting ground? No, if it is still a hunting ground, where did these children of her size come from, the more I think about it, the more uneasy Xia Nianyu's heart becomes.

Somehow, she remembered what the palace grandmother told her, and there was a passage in it that was exactly the same as the current scene, she still remembered, remembered, that the book seemed to call this place the Qinglou.

Thinking of this possibility, Xia Nianyu's face instantly turned pale.

Just as she was shocked by this realization, a girl with outstanding appearance next to her timidly approached and looked at her worriedly with a pair of big fawn-like eyes.

"You, are you alright?"

Father said that the most important thing when encountering danger is to stay calm, Xia Nianyu always kept this in mind, took a deep breath, and waited for the beating heart to gradually calm down, and then replied with a trembling voice.

"Ben...... I'm fine, where is this? ”

Subconsciously claiming to be about to blurt out from his mouth, Xia Nianyu hurriedly swallowed the princess back, claiming to me.

"Qinglou, were you also sold by Daddy?"

That girl is about a little older than Xia Nianyu, she should be six or seven years old, and she can already see that she looks outstanding.

Father? How is it possible, she is the most noble eldest princess in Dachen, how can her father be willing to sell her, and now she has fallen to this point, it is just because she was too careless at the beginning, so that the bad guy was caught.

Thinking of this, Xia Nianyu pursed her lips with some annoyance.

"I'm not, my father and mother like me, I was caught by bad guys, I have to get out."

As the eldest princess of Dachen, how could she be reduced to such a land of fireworks except for the most noble person in the world except for the queen mother.

Xia Nianyu is young, but her arrogance is not small, she was born noble, and it is impossible for others to fiddle with her.

"But, but the mother here is very fierce, if she is caught, she will be beaten to death."

When the girl said this, the fear in her eyes could not be deceiving, as if she had seen an evil spirit coming from the ground.

"She dares! If my dad knew, she'd be finished. ”

Even if he is sensible and steady on weekdays, he is young after all, and for some things that are simple and cute, Xia Nianyu made the right idea to run away secretly, and planned to take advantage of the dark night to act.

She had to go back quickly, otherwise her father and mother would be very worried.

At this time, Xia Nianyu didn't know that the camp had already been in chaos because of her mother, and she didn't notice her side at all.

In the middle of the night, the sky was dark, Xia Jingnian's worries became more and more intense, the camp was brightly lit, and all the guards were walking around the forest with torches in their hands.

"Queen Mother, Queen Mother......"

The forest at night was a little silent, and the shouts were the only sound in the night, Xia Jingnian, dressed in the dusty riding clothes of the day, stood in the camp with his hands behind his back and looked into the deep forest, wandering restlessly in place.

"Your Majesty."

Yu Chi Zongyu, who had lost count of how many times he had been in, rode back with a depressed face, and hurriedly dismounted when he saw Xia Jingnian.

"How? Have you found the Queen? ”

The long wait and uneasiness made Xia Jingnian lose his proportions, and in a moment of urgency, he lost his holy state and reached out to grab his shoulder.

"I disappointed the emperor, please punish the emperor."

"Your Excellency, please get up."

Yu Chi Zongyu shook his head, and was about to kneel on one leg when he was helped up by the prince on one side.

Xia Jingnian was too worried about Ji Qiang's safety, but he couldn't rest assured that Xia Yuxuan's brothers and sisters could only stay in the camp, but after thinking about it, they still couldn't sit still, so they sent Fang Ping and Leng Kill out, and sent someone to call the prince to watch.

Before the prince came over, he deliberately asked his confidants to guard the prince and the eldest princess, but he was in a hurry and didn't have time to give instructions in person, so that the traitor took advantage of the loophole.

"It's not your fault, get up."

With the intervention of the princess, Xia Jingnian realized that he was out of proportion, flicked his sleeves irritably, and gave a false hand.

Wei Chi's family can be regarded as having paid a lot of credit for Dachen, if they are wantonly punished because of this matter, but how can they serve the world with virtue.

It's just that Xia Jingnian couldn't stay still, just at this time, Fang Ping came back with people, and hurriedly asked him to guard the camp with his personal guards, and let the prince go to watch the prince and the eldest princess.

He led his horse and rushed into the forest alone, bluffing the other ministers who did not dare to sleep in the camp, this, this is late at night, and it is a hunting ground, what if something bad happens to the saint.

When there was a panic, Wei Chi Zongyu and Yan Ruyu came forward to manage the civil and military generals respectively, and finally crushed the riot to death in the cradle.

In the depths of the forest, there are thousands of lush greenery, and the day is a little gloomy, and at night it is even more damp and cold, and the surroundings are foggy.

The more you go inside, the more you can't see it, but fortunately, when Xia Jingnian rushed in, she still remembered to take a torch, which could illuminate the footsteps.

Rao is like this, she didn't dare to be careless, she could only cheer up when she couldn't see the surroundings clearly, and rode her horse to the place she was looking for this evening, and then she could only walk inside, Xia Jingnian abandoned the horse and walked along the path, staring at the ground to find something.

Ji Qiang has been here for a whole day, and she must need to fill her stomach and replenish her water, maybe as long as she can find a water source, she can be found.

Xia Jingnian didn't know if his method would work, but at this time, he could only pin all his hopes on this.

The footsteps have not stopped, the soil under the feet has gradually softened, and even a few maple leaf-like paw prints can be seen, and further forward is a tall camphor tree, Xia Jingnian was about to continue moving forward, suddenly smelled the familiar smell on the branches, and his pupils shrank suddenly.

This smell is Ji Qiang's ecstasy!

With a slight fluctuation in his heart, he changed his torch, took out a dagger in his right hand and slashed it on the trunk, and turned to look around vigilantly, for fear of missing Ji Qiang's figure.

However, after walking along the camphor tree for about a stick of incense, there was no trace of a person, and this discovery deeply stimulated his tense nerves, and he pursed his thin lips and could only choose to continue walking.

Gradually, he saw that there was still ...... Familiar snow-white war horses!

In an instant, Xia Jingnian's heart beat wildly, and he was relieved that there was no problem with his direction, and continued to move forward with hope.

When he saw the broken stone, his face suddenly changed, his eyes were deep, and he stood on the edge of the cliff and looked straight at the bottom of the mountain.

Suddenly, he extinguished the torch and, with a little effort, climbed nimbly up the branches and stones that protruded from the mountain wall.
