Late at night, the wind was bitterly cold.

The terrain of Lingshan is continuous and steep, mostly cliffs and gravel, towering ancient forests stand in it, but it has entered winter, and it is black and vast at a glance.

Su Qian's heart felt very unsteady when he stayed in the wing room this night, and he could hear the wind whistling through the walk, accompanied by the neighing of wild beasts in the mountains, and the crying of birds.

Zhiyun helped the queen lay out the quilt, asked the mother to lie down and rest, and persuaded her, "The mother is not afraid, the slave maid will stay in the wing room tonight to keep vigil." ”

Zhiyun's move is also to let Niangniang feel relieved.

It was already the third watch outside, Su Qian was tossing and turning on the bed, without the slightest sleep, staring at the brazier that was burning not far away, quietly distracted.

And Zhiyun said that it was a vigil, and he didn't survive a day and was lying on the table, sleeping so sweetly.

Su Qian looked at her sleeping face and smiled faintly, this little girl is really big-hearted, as if she can be stable no matter what kind of environment she is in.

The yellowish candlelight hit Zhiyun's side face, I don't know what I dreamed of in my sleep, and the pear vortex at the corner of my lips swayed shallowly, quite a little bit of the exquisite feeling of a small jasper.

Zhiyun was three years younger than the original owner, and was only thirteen years old when he entered the palace, but now four years have passed, and a young face has grown, and it has become more and more slim.

Her weaving cloud is already a big girl.

Su Qian muttered to himself, "This kung fu has passed so quickly in the blink of an eye, it seems that we have to find a good family for Zhiyun." ”

It is rare to have a caring person around, even if she is reluctant, she can't delay Zhiyun's youth and her future life, Su Qian wants to find a wishful husband for her, just want to be good to her wholeheartedly.

Su Qian quietly got off the bed, and gently covered the thick velvet cloak embroidered with a phoenix bottom on Zhiyun's thin body.

Outside the wings, on the rugged mountain road of Lingshan, in the dense forest among the towering ancient trees, there are a few thin figures stepping on the waist-high snow with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and secretly moving forward against the whistling mountain wind.

"Hey, wait for us!"

There are intermittent shouts in the distance, if you don't listen carefully, it is easy to dissipate with the mountain wind, not noticed, follow the direction of the sound, there is a group of people staggering forward at a distance of more than ten meters, it can be said that it is very embarrassing.

The group was dressed in several layers of thick winter coats, tightly wrapped, leather gloves and hoods were worn on the heads and palms, revealing only a dozen pairs of thick eyes.

At this time, the sky was covered with snowflakes, which made the already rugged mountain road even more difficult to walk, and every meter of progress required great physical strength.

"Hey! Can't you hear when you stuff donkey hair in your ears, but stop! The hysterical roar grew more and more infuriating, reaching the ears of everyone in front of them through the bitter wind.

The well-trained dead soldiers of the Prime Minister's Mansion led the way, and behind them was a nest of bandits from the nearby mountains who had been hired for a long time.

The dead men glanced at each other, suppressed the gloom and murderous aura rising under their eyes, and stopped slowly.

"Special mother, if Lao Tzu knew that it was such a ghost weather, even if he gave Lao Tzu a golden mountain, Lao Tzu would not come!"

The bandit leader finally caught up, panting and leaning down, his hands on his knees, and in a burst of abuse, he breathed heavily, and the breath he exhaled suddenly turned into ice ballast, and froze on the face towel.

And the rest of the bandits were even more miserable, they didn't care to complain at all, and they were so tired that they were panting.

"Well, it's too late for you to turn around and go back now, but I kindly remind you, don't stop on the way down the mountain, or you'll be frozen into ice sculptures before the sun rises tomorrow."

The leader of the dead men hugged his chest and opened his mouth coldly, and his face was full of impatience.

They don't want to drag down this group of garbage, it will only delay time, but because the prime minister ordered to leave the corpses of bandits at the scene, it can be regarded as banditry.

The bandits didn't know that they were going to die, and they had dreams of making a windfall in their hearts, and they were still babbling and swearing.

"Whew! Lao Tzu took his brothers over the mountains and walked most of the way, and now he says that he is leaving, no way! said that after robbing this rich and noble household, we will be divided into five or five. ”

"If you want to make a big pen, hurry up."

When the dead soldiers saw that the bandits could still curse, it meant that they still had strength, so they continued to walk, and the bandits could only wail and continue to move forward with their heads down against the wind and snow.

The bandit glanced back at the mountain road behind him, and it was black, like a giant beast hidden deep in the night, opening its dark mouth and devouring everything.

He chuckled in his heart, inexplicably hairy, and took his brothers to most of the way, even if it was too late to regret it, he could only rush forward.

I hope that after I finish this big vote, my brothers will no longer have to follow him to hide in Tibet, and he will no longer have to live this day of worrying, shouting and shouting and killing.

I don't know how long they walked, but the bandits' feet were numb from the cold, and they just moved forward little by little by instinct, just when everyone was exhausted and reached the peak of physical exertion.

"Here we are."

The leader of the dead soldiers, who had been walking at the forefront, suddenly spoke, and his gaze looking ahead instantly became deep, faintly beating with excited killing intent.

"What?"

The bandits thought it was an auditory hallucination, and subconsciously responded.

The bandit leader obviously still had reason and sobriety in his mind, and when he heard the word 'arrived', he immediately cheered up, squinted his eyes and looked into the distance, and the faint outline of the wing room appeared faintly in the dark night, and there was a little light.

"Finally the special mother has arrived!"

The bandit leader cheered out with irrepressible excitement, and he rubbed his hands, staring at the wing room in the distance like a mountain of gold and silver, sweeping away his previous exhaustion, and was about to rush forward.

The other bandits looked sad and showed a very numb state.

When they shuttled through the mountains and forests, the cold wind whistled by, and there were bursts of sound like a ghost crying in their ears.

The cold wind carried the goose feathers and heavy snow, and the vision was extremely blurred, and the fear was like a bone appendage, which could not be dissipated for a long time.

"I have found out clearly in advance that the old lady and the young lady of the big family came out to pray for blessings together, and brought a lot of gold and silver to donate to the temple, and they were surrounded by some servants and maids, so it was very easy to start."

"After robbing the gold and silver, and then tying up the meat ticket, the family is definitely willing to ransom people with blood for the sake of filial piety and the reputation of their daughters, and the opportunity is a godsend, not to be missed."

The words of the leader of the dead were full of coaxing, plucking every string of the bandit leader's nerves.

After speaking, the corners of his mouth hooked up a mocking sneer, "? ”

The bandit leader's eyes widened, revealing undisguised greed and desire, "it! ”
