Miao Rong took Xichen, Chun Yuyao and Hongyi walked in the Firefly Valley for three days and three nights, and in the end, the hard work paid off, and the four of them finally found the cave of the fireflies.

Miao Rong smiled: "When I arrived, the fireflies were in this cave." ”

With that, Miao Rong walked in, and the three of them followed closely behind.

The cave was pitch black, and Miao Rong took out a fire fold from her sleeve, and after it was blown away, it illuminated the road ahead.

By the faint light of the fire, everyone kept wandering around the cave, which was very clean, there were no flowers and weeds on the ground, but a flat road, and there were no insects and birds on it, only rocky cliffs.

After walking for a while, a golden light suddenly appeared in front of me. Miao Rong extinguished the fire. She pulled out a small porcelain vase from her sleeve. The bottle is purple, with various snakes, rats, insects and ants painted on it, the area of the bottle mouth can be the size of an egg, and the bottle is oval.

I saw Miao Rong open the cork, use the true qi in her hand, and hold the bottle into the air with the true qi, she took out the flute from her waist and played it. The tune sounded slowly, this time the tune was not as terrible as before, but there was a little more calm in the tune, like mountains and flowing water, and it was graceful to listen to.

The song sounded, and the golden thing moved, and they spread their wings and flew into the small porcelain vase. After the bottle was full, Miao Rong plugged the mouth of the bottle with a cork. She put away the flute, took the bottle, and said to the three of them: "Let's go!" ”

The three of them didn't ask much, and left directly with Miao Rong.

On the street, a slender man wearing a cloak and a cloak hat walked down the street. He came to an inn, went up to the second floor of the inn, pushed open the door of a guest room, and closed it tightly.

Behind him, there was a man dressed in black, with a black cloth on his face, and he was lying on the eaves of the inn. Peek.

I saw that there was another person in the guest room, that person was a woman, dressed in purple, standing by the window of the inn, with her back to the man behind her.

I only heard the man in the cloak say, "I thought the master would come in person, but I never thought that you would come." ”

The woman by the window smiled lightly, "No matter who comes between me and the master, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with it, right?" ”

As she spoke, she took out a small porcelain bottle from her sleeve, turned around and threw it to the man, who took it, uncorked it, poured the medicine on his hand and took it.

The woman smiled contemptuously: "Before the poison on your body is solved, don't be so arrogant when you talk in the future, otherwise it will make me feel bad, and I will ask you to try the poison." ”

After the woman turned around, the black-clothed man on the eaves could see the woman's appearance clearly, she was Ning Yi of Yiwang's Mansion.

Ning Yi asked slowly, "Say, what news have you found?" ”

The man walked up to Ning Yi and whispered a few words in her ear. Ning Yi smiled deeply, "Okay, find a way to take that thing out." ”

The man said: "Don't worry! ”

When the man finished speaking, he turned and left.

In the Hanyang Palace, Ning Yihan was reading a book in the study, and a subordinate outside the study walked in, and the subordinate saluted, "Your Highness, Princess Zining asks to see!" ”

Ning Yihan put down the book, "Please let her in." ”

"Yes!"

After a long time, Ning Zidan was invited in. As soon as Ning Zidan entered the study, he walked to the desk, "Cousin, you quickly put down everything at hand now and take me to find a hidden place in your mansion, I have something very important to tell you." ”

Ning Yihan had long been accustomed to Ning Zidan's fuss, and he smiled: "What's the important thing?" ”

Ning Zidan said with a serious face: "It's very important!" ”

Ning Yihan doted on Ning Zidan very much, and when he saw that Ning Zidan was speaking seriously and seriously, he ordered everyone not to go near the study, he closed the door of the study and pulled her to the back room of the study.

Ning Yihan said: "Say, what's the matter?" ”

"Cousin, I saw Gonggong Li, who is the little plum next to the first emperor."

After Ning Yihan heard this, his face changed greatly, and he still had a humorous and smiling face, and suddenly his face became serious.

"When did you meet him?"

"Yesterday, cousin, Gonggong Li was all injured, and he was chased to Shuyu Palace alone."

"Who is being hunted down?"

"It's the guards in the palace, and it's also the emperor's order."

After Ning Yihan heard this, he knew in his heart that this matter was not small. Xiao Lizi has accompanied the emperor all his life, and he has worked hard, and it stands to reason that even if he is alive, he can retire to his hometown safely and enjoy his old age. But the emperor sent people to hunt him down, and as soon as the emperor died, he was just a useless father-in-law, and the emperor had no reason to hunt him down. But since the emperor chased and killed, it must be something to cover up?

Thinking of this, he thought of what Ning Hao said in his ear that day, when Ning Hao entered the cell, Ning Yuchen was a terrible person, since he planned all this, it should not be as simple as wanting to get rid of me.

Combining these two points, Ning Yihan couldn't help but think of the throne, could it be that this matter is related to the throne?

Ning Yihan didn't think about it anymore, but said, "You go on!" ”

Ning Zidan didn't say anything, she told Ning Yihan what Xiao Lizi said to her completely and word for word. As she spoke, she also took out Xiao Lizi from her sleeve and gave her the edict of the first emperor.

After Ning Yihan understood, he stretched out his hand and took the edict of the first emperor, and after opening it, he saw that it was written:

Emperor Huifeng, Emperor Chengze, Emperor Chengze, Emperor Dengdi for 30 years. I am a fool of the people. During his reign, he worked hard and worked hard to make the world slack, although he had the heart of blessing the world, but he was not blessed with a prosperous scene. The Third Highness Ning Yihan is diligent in government and loves the people, has the right to be good at fighting, is clear in government, and is suitable for the throne. I hope that during his reign, he can seek happiness for the people and live a long life! After my death, everything is simple! Announce at home and abroad, and make the salty envoy aware of it!

After reading this edict, Ning Yihan felt a lot of emotion in his heart for a while.

In life, there are really too many coincidences, Chun Yushuang wanted to be the queen, and the first emperor issued an edict to let him ascend the throne. Alas! In this life of a person, it is all coincidental and unwritten, and Ning Yihan's life is like having his own destiny in the dark, he originally wanted to live a life of indifference to fame and fortune, but in the end, he went around and around, and he was involved with the throne again. Ning Yihan couldn't help laughing in his heart, what a creation makes people! Frost, you want to be a queen, a husband, and finally you can be fulfilled. It's just that the battle for the throne is very dangerous, if you lose......

Ning Yihan didn't dare to think about it, because, if the king is defeated, if he is defeated, he will not be implicated, but the entire Hanyang Palace, and he will also become a sinner for the ages who killed the king and seized the throne, so if he is defeated, he will ......

He didn't think much about it, and he didn't dare to think about it. Ning Yihan retracted his thoughts and thanked him: "Zidan, thank you!" By the way, what about Gonggong Li? ”

"Cousin, after Gonggong Li handed this over to me, he left the Jade Palace. He said that staying in the Soyu Palace would affect me, so he left the Soyu Palace. ”

"Leaving Soyu Palace?" Ning Yihan analyzed: "The court felons captured by the emperor are generally killed and hung on the city to show the public. ”

Ning Yihan thought of this, and was shocked, "It's not good, let's go, go to the city gate!" ”

Ning Zidan hadn't reacted yet, Ning Yihan had already run out, and although Ning Zidan didn't figure out the situation, he still followed. The two of them prepared a carriage outside the palace, and their every move was being watched by two men in black, who followed the carriage in the shadows.

The carriage came to the city gate of Ning Aoguo, and sure enough, Xiao Lizi's body was hung at the city gate for public display. I saw that he was dressed in dirty prison clothes, his hair was disheveled, his eyes were closed and hung high by a rope at the gate of the city, his feet were not wearing shoes, and his face was the miserable white of a dead man. The people at the gate of the city gathered together and talked about it, and there were two notices posted on the wall on the side, which wrote about the crimes committed by Xiao Lizi.

Although Xiao Lizi is a eunuch, he has served the first emperor all his life, and he is loyal to the first emperor, but in the end, he died a tragic death, hung at the city gate to show the public, and after his death, he will be hung on these trumped-up charges.

Ning Yihan looked around, and suddenly analyzed in his heart, no, although the average court felony is to be shown to the public after beheading, but Ning Yuchen is the emperor who usurped the throne, and Xiao Lizi is the person of the first emperor, if he shows him to the public, won't it attract suspicion?

Thinking of this, Ning Yihan looked around again, and shouted in his heart, it's not good, it's a trick!

Ning Yihan said, then pulled Ning Zidan and got into the car, the two sat in the car, Ning Yihan said with a straight face: "Zidan, you go back to the palace first!" I'm going to do something. Zidan, do you remember that no one can say anything about our departure from the palace today, especially the emperor, remember? ”

Although Ning Zidan listened in a fog, he still nodded, "Remember!" ”

Ning Yihan got out of the car and instructed the groom to send Ning Zidan safely to the gate of the palace, and then left alone.

Ning Yihan came to the corner of an uninhabited alley, and as soon as he came, he saw a man in black falling from the sky, and fell to the ground with a "bang". Immediately afterwards, Jin Ge wore a plain dress and flew down.

Jin Ge sighed lightly and said arrogantly: "Your Highness is really careless, you don't know if you're being followed." ”

Ning Yihan smiled: "Thank you, Frost!" ”

Ning Yihan walked to the man in black, and was just about to squat down to probe his snort, but Jin Ge said, "Don't look at it, he's dead!" ”

"You killed him?" Ning Yihan was puzzled

"No, he committed suicide by poisoning. Moreover, he was clean and had nothing. Jin Ge explained

"He is the emperor's dead soldier, and if he dies, the emperor will be suspicious."

Jin Ge added: "But if he goes back alive and reports to the emperor, the emperor will be suspicious." ”

Ning Yihan nodded, "Today, the emperor showed Xiao Lizi's body to the city, just to test me." If I come, it proves that I have already met Gonggong Li, then, the emperor will start to guard against me, and even get rid of me, if I don't come, although the emperor will spare my life, he is also likely to send someone to spy on me. Today, I was careless. ”

"A man stumbles, a horse stumbles. Your Highness, don't blame yourself too much. ”

While the two were talking, a man in black appeared in front of them. When the two saw it, they immediately became vigilant, but the man in black said: "Your Highness, the villain is ordered by my master to invite you to talk about the West Street Teahouse at noon tomorrow." ”

"Who is your master?" Ning Yihan asked

"Your Highness will know tomorrow when you go, and the villain will leave!" The man in black finished his words and left.

After the man in black left, Ning Yihan and Jin Ge also left.
