That night, the war dragon carried torches and searched for Ning Yue all over the mountains and fields until dawn, but after all, he found nothing. Due to the excessive use of internal force and the fact that he had not eaten a drop of water for half a day and had not slept all night, the war dragon, who looked a little tired, now had to lean against the tree to rest for a while. It was only then that he realized that his left hand had been burned by the ashes that had fallen from the torch, leaving several scars of various sizes and a dull pain. Standing on the tuyere and letting the bone-chilling wind blow wantonly, the war dragon felt a lot more sober, so he fell into deep thought. I walked all over Qingfeng Mountain last night, and with my familiarity with this mountain forest, there was absolutely nothing missing, so I can conclude that Ning Yue has already left here. The foot of the mountain was flooded, and if there were no boats to carry it, she would not have been able to cross the other side of the river as a weak woman. In this case, someone must have come to meet her, according to the general, this person was not a member of the army, but she was just a little girl, who would take such a risk to arrest her when the two sides were deadlocked? After thinking about it, he still had no clue, and Zhan Long decided to go back to the cottage to find a smile and ask for clarification.

"You said Sister Yue'er is not in the barracks now?" A smile looked at him in shock and said.

"Now that her whereabouts are unknown, if you still care about her safety, you must know everything about me." War Dragon frowned and stared at Xiaoyan's every move, in case she was hiding something from herself.

smiled and replied aggrievedly: "I only know that Sister Yue'er has a big brother named Ning Feng who is an official, and I really don't know anything about the rest......"

After hearing this, Zhan Long sneered and said, "Is that really the case? She has an eldest brother who doesn't go to refuge, but lives with you who are not relatives, why is this? If you don't know anything about her, how can you leave her at home for a long time? ”

In the face of the war dragon's repeated questions, Xiaoyan was anxious, and tears flowed. She didn't care about her promise to Han Fei, and told all about how Han Fei met Ning Yue and how she brought her back, hoping that Zhan Long could gain insight into it, follow the vine, and find Ning Yue as soon as possible.

In this way, someone is trying to catch her...... But yesterday the general had said that the things she feared and feared were gone, and why did she disappear for no reason at this time? Could it be that she hid in Qingfeng Village not to hide from those villains, but to have another hidden secret? It seems that if you want to know the ins and outs of this matter, you have to go to her eldest brother to ask for clarification. Thinking that Ning Yue's life and death were uncertain at the moment, the war dragon was so anxious that he didn't want to delay for a moment, he nodded to Xiaoyan, jumped over, and disappeared without a trace.

Since the departure of the An Jiajun, Uncle Rong Guo and Duan Nantian have been sick at home all day long, unwilling to go to court, and there are two good people dangling in front of them, and the emperor has also ended up quiet. One day, he was concentrating on reading the recital, suddenly there was a commotion outside the imperial study, he threw the cinnabar pen in his hand hard, and was about to open his mouth to reprimand, but he heard a noise mixed with a silver bell-like sound, and suddenly there was no anger, only ten million helplessness.

"Is the imperial concubine here? Pass it on. The emperor said with a long sigh.

After a while, the imperial concubine with a tray in her hand walked in cautiously, wearing a lilac embroidered gold Luo skirt, although she was graceful, but it looked out of place. Her fair-skinned little face and delicate jade-like hands were all red from the cold, which made people feel pity when they saw it. However, as far as the emperor is concerned, she is just a member of the Rong family, a cronie of the queen mother, and a spy by her side, so even if she is shivering with cold at this time, the emperor can never sincerely care about a few words. "Your Majesty, the concubine stewed a chicken soup for you, and there are many precious medicinal herbs in it, which is very nourishing, please use it quickly." After speaking, the imperial concubine brought the hot soup to him, looked at him tenderly, and looked forward to his approval.

"I've already used the tonic soup, so I'd better take it back and enjoy it for yourself." The emperor naturally would not suspect that she had poisoned the soup, but it was good to be careful after all, especially in such an extraordinary period. The An family army has now moved to the north, and now only the 100,000 imperial forest army in the emperor's hands can protect him, if the Rong clan makes waves at this time, the emperor will fall into an isolated and helpless situation. Cheng has always been strongly opposed to sending An Jiajun to annihilate the bandits, but it is really puzzling why he has recently turned to support. Although I am unwilling to let An Jiajun stay away from the capital, I cannot ignore the advice of the prime minister and Uncle Rongguo, two important ministers in the court...... The throne they have in mind is actually just such a vacant position that needs to be compromised and catered to, and if it weren't for my father's last wish, I would have liked to give it up......

"That'...... The concubine put it here, and when the emperor wants to drink it, let someone warm it up for you, right? The imperial concubine, as always, did not notice the boredom in the emperor's tone, and before he could answer, she put the tray on the wooden table next to the couch, and then sat down and looked at the emperor's back affectionately in a daze.

"I accept the concubine's wishes, if there is nothing else to do, I will retreat." Seeing that she had no intention of leaving, the emperor said coldly.

After hearing this, the imperial concubine woke up like a dream, and hurriedly replied: "After the emperor said this, the concubine remembered that there is indeed something to tell you." ”

"What?" The emperor turned around leisurely, squinted at her and asked.

"The emperor had asked the concubines to inquire about their aunt's preferences before, and now the concubines have gained a lot." The imperial concubine happily continued: "The concubine went to the aunt's palace to ask for peace in the past few days, and she met that Lord Duan Shangshu Duan following her uncle in and out of the aunt's palace. In the past, the concubine had never seen that adult, and I thought that the adult must have something special, so that my aunt and uncle regarded him as a confidant in just a few days, and if the emperor wanted to do what my aunt liked, why not ask the adult? "As long as it is related to the Queen Mother, no matter how big or small, the imperial concubine will tell the emperor, it is nothing more than hoping that the emperor and the Queen Mother can release their past suspicions, and how do you know that what she said today will make the emperor hate their Rong family even more.

is a good uncle of Rongguo, a good queen mother, and he actually took the lead to win over Duan Nantian, who holds the power of the army! is so unscrupulous and does not hide his wolf ambitions, isn't it going to be reversed! Once they unite to attack our capital, even if the 100,000 elites of the Imperial Forest Army are difficult to resist, at that time, the Anjia Army, which is thousands of miles away, wants to rush to escort it, I am afraid it will be beyond the reach of the whip......

"What Concubine Ai said is very beneficial to me, and I still have important matters to deal with at the moment, please go back first."

The emperor rarely praised it, and the imperial concubine was overjoyed when she heard it, and she replied pretending to be obedient: "It is the duty of the concubines to share their worries for the emperor, as long as it is ordered by the emperor, the concubines will go to the soup and go to the fire." The concubine has retired, your majesty, you have to take good care of yourself! ”

After the imperial concubine left, the emperor summoned the secret guard and ordered in a low voice: "Order Mo Niancong to go to Duan Mansion to persuade Duan Nantian to hand over the military power in the name of investigating the case, otherwise, there will be no forgiveness for killing!" Don't be careless like last time and leave clues that people will use as a handle to blackmail me! ”

"Subordinates take orders!"

Duan Nantian, Duan Nantian, although you have always refused to be used by me, I have not taken back the military power in your hands for a long time, firstly because I am a person who cherishes talents. You don't know how to be grateful, but now you are in collusion with the rebellious ministers and thieves, and want to take my throne, how can I tolerate you again! If you still don't listen to the advice, don't blame me for killing you......
