At this time, Xuanyuan Che, who didn't know what had happened, stood alone in the bleak wind, his clothes flying like butterflies.

"The queen has returned?"

"Perhaps," Wei Changshou said with an unconcealable panic in his voice, "Your Majesty atoned for your sins, the servant just ran an errand elsewhere, and he didn't see Niangniang's whereabouts clearly."

"Your Majesty," at this moment, a small chamberlain suddenly rushed forward from the direction of the back camp, panting and reporting, "Your Majesty, Concubine Li, she ...... She's missing, too!"

Xuanyuan Che was just stunned, but Wei Changshou was instantly shocked, and stammered to ask for details for his master, "What's the matter?"

"The people who waited for Concubine Li's mother said that they just went to the dining room to get a snack, and when they came back, they found that Concubine Li's mother was gone."

"How so?" Wei Changshou frowned.

He turned his head and was about to ask again, but Xuanyuan Che had already opened his mouth, "Lone knows, stand down."

The little waiter bowed and hurriedly withdrew.

Xuanyuan Che remembered that Concubine Li, that is, Princess Qingli, also came with her this time, but she was quite knowledgeable, and she was not obvious, so low-key that she had already been left behind by Xuanyuan Che.

I can't imagine that such a person who has been staying out of the matter can't escape the same fate as Emperor Jiuli of Changyue.

His inky clothes moved with the wind, and Xuanyuan Che frowned, but he was silent for a long time.

And Wei Changshou on the side was obviously not as calm as him, and he was already sweating on his forehead in a hurry at the moment.

About half a cup of tea passed, Xuanyuan Che finally spoke, "Wei Changshou, go find the queen."

"Yes, the minion will do it."

Wei Changshou hurriedly ran to find someone, after all, having something to do is more reassuring than having nothing to do.

The cold wind swept the tent door upside down, and an extremely oppressive aura permeated the camp.

Zhu Jiugang broke up with Zu Mengxu, and when he walked to the main tent, he saw Xuanyuan Che's upright and jade figure clearly recognizable, and he should be waiting for her.

She couldn't help but take a few quick steps, and at this time, Xuanyuan Che also saw Zhu Jiu, and couldn't help but smile lightly at the corners of his mouth, and greeted her in the direction she was walking from.

"!"

I didn't think that Baili Jin was also standing not far away, bowing in the direction that Zhu Jiu was coming from.

"You're there too?"

Before Zhu Jiu's slightly surprised voice reached his ears, a sharp shout suddenly resounded throughout the open space between the camps, and everyone present looked up at the place where the voice came from in horror.

"It's gone!"

The voice of the man who reported the news was sharp, and it instantly reached everyone's ears like a bell, and many people exclaimed in an instant.

"Escort!"

The dark guards dressed in black guard uniforms shuttled from tent to tent, and then concentrated around Xuanyuan Che, swearing to defend their lord to the death.

Out of nowhere, there was a sudden cry, and then many people were stunned, not knowing what had happened.

"Panic what! Tang Yi, immediately bring someone over to check, and quickly report the specific situation to Gu Zhi."

Zhu Jiu's face was as usual, but she was faintly worried in her heart, she raised her head and looked at Xuanyuan Che first, and then looked at Baili Jin, but she only saw the same panic in Bai Lijin's eyes.

Soon Tang Yi brought people back to report that the camp where the water was taken was where Concubine Li lived before.

Combined with what she had just seen and heard, she could explain everything.

All those people did was to destroy all traces of Xuanyuan Che they could trace.

"All the irrelevant people are in their own places, and I don't want to see anyone come back to me."

Wei Changshou, who was preaching on behalf of Xuanyuan Che, had a dull voice, and all the walking and standing sergeants, palace people, chamberlains, or civil ministers, military attachés, etc., in front of the tent all turned back to their tents in the fastest time.

Soon, the camp was silent, and even the water walkway, which was originally noisy, lost its movement for a while.

The matter quickly subsided under the control of the secret guards, and under the colorful glow in the sky, Zhu Jiu stood outside the main tent and looked at the people who came and went as usual, as if he had just been

It's as if nothing happened.

Xuanyuan Che stood side by side with her, his eyes were also faint, and he couldn't see what he was thinking at all, but when Zhu Jiu looked at him, he happened to see a hint of playfulness flashing in his eyes.

Zhu Jiu suddenly realized how could he forget that he was also an iron-blooded emperor, and now how could he let those people act wantonly in front of him repeatedly.

It had been so before, it was like it this time, and it was always like this, he had a plan, but he didn't or didn't want to tell her.

On the way back to his camp, Zhu Jiu met Baili Jin unexpectedly.

I had seen him from a distance before, but now that he got closer, Zhu Jiu saw clearly that he was wearing a crimson brocade robe like Zu Mengxu today, only the cuffs were embroidered with golden flowers and plants different from Zu Mengxu, which was extremely incompatible with his usual low-key.

"How do you dress like this?"

"Isn't that pretty?"

Zhu Jiu shook his head, "It's not like your usual style."

"People always have to change."

"Nonsense!"

Bai Lijin was noncommittal in the face of her anger, his face was still calm, and he just looked at Zhu Jiu fixedly.

"It's raining?"

It was still sunny just now, but now it started to rain.

The delicate rain fell slowly, and a hazy wet mist almost made the people on both sides unable to see each other's eyebrows.

"Give you an umbrella."

Zhu Jiu took the oil umbrella from Nianqiu and handed it to Baili Jin, and after he took it, he turned his head and ordered Nianqiu to retreat to the edge of the tent to take shelter from the rain and wait.

And she herself held the oil umbrella lightly, tilted her head slightly and waited for Bai Li Jin to speak, not feeling that the drizzle had wet a small part of her skirt.

"Why don't you speak?"

Bai Lijin also lowered his head and looked at her, refusing to say a word.

"Ah Jiu, have you heard of Linjiang Pavilion?"

Zhu Jiu shook her head, she only knew that it was a towering pavilion, standing by the rolling Xujiang River, which was rumored to be the storage place of the national relics of Gaoxin Town.

Back then, the ancestors of Gaoxin jumped on horseback, swept up the bloody field, and used blood and life to open up this vast land that stretched in the Xujiang River Basin.

In the process of opening up the territory, the ancestors of Gaoxin accidentally found a treasure from the Xujiang River, and the subsequent attack road was a smooth road.

After the founding of the state, the ancestors set the capital at the place where the treasures were found, and built a high pavilion as a support.

"This is the origin of Linjiang Pavilion, Ah Jiu, are you clear now?"

The drizzle flew diagonally and gently hit the oil umbrella, but for Zhu Jiu, who knew about it, he felt a little heavy at this moment.

Her figure was hidden in Baili Jin's figure, and the people next to her could only see the half-hidden skirt corners flying up and down in the air.

"I see."

"Okay, Ah Jiu, I'll tell you one more thing I don't know, it's related to your father."

"My mom and dad?"

Zhu Jiu was stunned for a while, she didn't know much about her father, but Bai Lijin looked more familiar than her.

"When your father was young, he fell in love with your mother in Linjiang Pavilion, and the relationship between the two of them is inseparable from that treasure, you should know some of the story they had back then."

Zhu Jiu naturally nodded and listened to him continue.
