After being reborn in the Mass Grave, she overturned her predecessor's power

After that night, Jiang Xue Ning spent her days in drunkenness and dreams in the manor, and became completely lazy.

Apart from reading the messages sent to him every day, playing with cats and reading storybooks, he has nothing to do.

Outside, a storm was brewing. The people led by the Lord of Baidu City had already encountered several waves of assassinations, but their arrogance was still strong.

The winter sun was just the right amount of warmth. Jiang Xuening was rocking in her chair, teasing the cat in her arms, while Bingtong was practicing her piano skills nearby.

A red figure climbed over the wall and entered. Wu Sa changed her composure as a top female assassin and said anxiously, "Strange things happen every year, but this year there are more."

She scratched the cat's chin and asked lazily, "What's wrong?"

"The palace has spread the news that Duan Xilou will be executed in public!" Wu Sa said with a burning gaze, "That's the Jade-faced General Duan Xilou, the dream lover of thousands of girls in the capital."

As soon as this news came out, it caused a huge uproar!

Her pupils trembled and she couldn't help pulling out a cat hair. The kitten meowed in accusation and slapped her with its paw. It turned out that she was not hallucinating.

The sound of the zither stopped abruptly, and Bingtong spoke slowly, "Duan Xilou is the elder brother of King Xiangchu, and also her comrade-in-arms who fought side by side with her. They went through life and death together, and together they protected this land with their flesh and blood."

When Gu Mingyue was shot dead by the emperor outside the city gate, Duan Xilou launched the most fierce counterattack.

He took the only 5,000 soldiers he had and fought desperately for a day and a night at the city gate, vowing to seek justice for Gu Mingyue.

Of course he lost miserably in the end. The 5,000 personal soldiers he brought with him fought to the end, and they were so bloodthirsty that they did not retreat a single step.

I will never regret even if I die!

It has been rumored that he was killed by thousands of arrows piercing his heart in that tragic battle, and his body was thrown into a mass grave without a trace.

Jiang Xue Ning was upset. Of course, after she came back to life, she had asked for information about him. No matter how many times she checked, the news she got was that he was dead...

"Hehehehe..."

She covered her face with her hands and chuckled, tears falling between her fingers.

It turns out I’m still alive… How great!

Just live.

The old lady also came and said excitedly, "Did you receive the news? He is still alive... Duan Xilou is still alive."

When Jiangnan was invaded, it was Duan Xilou who led the troops to repel the enemy in times of crisis.

On the seventh day after his death, the people of Jiangnan lit up the city with three thousand white flags and bright lanterns to bid him farewell.

They didn't care what the emperor thought. They only knew that if Duan Xilou was not there, Jiangnan would be trampled by the iron cavalry of the Northern Rong, and their families would be destroyed.

She calmed down and said calmly, "I heard about it, but I don't know if the news is true."

The Li family was one of the four great families after all. The old lady said, "I have found a way to have it confirmed."

Jiang Xue Ning couldn't wait any longer, "I will leave for Beijing tomorrow."

"Is it too dangerous?"

"I must go back."

As soon as the news came out that "Gu Mingyue" was still alive, Helian Xuan immediately released the news of Duan Xilou's execution, and it seemed that he was determined to muddy the waters even more.

He spread an attractive bait, and at least she knew the danger ahead, but she was willing to take the bait.

The old lady narrowed her eyes and said, "This trip to Shengjing will be full of events, so I hope you will be careful along the way."

She said nothing more, and as for the generous gift she had promised, she would give it to her at the right time.

The situation is changing, and the two most watched people in Xiling will meet again in Xiling. Even her old bones are excited, and she wants to live to see how this drama will play out.

"If the princess can see General Duan, please tell us a message." The old lady said solemnly, "The people of Jiangnan hope he returns safely."

"it is good."

The group hurriedly set out on their journey back to Beijing. Du Yishui said uninterestedly, "I didn't expect to go around in circles and end up going back again."

Bingtong always felt that Jiang Xuening's mood was a little strange and not right, and her cold gaze seemed to penetrate her.

"It's not like you to rashly change your plan to go south and return to Beijing. You knew Helian Xuan had laid bait and a trap, but you still jumped into it without hesitation."

Jiang Xue Ning stood by the window, looking at the river with resentful eyes and said calmly, "Because he is a very important person."

This time it's her turn to go through fire and water. She must rescue him, even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead.

It was rare to see her show her emotions so openly, Bingtong became a little interested, "I want to see with my own eyes the demeanor of this Jade-faced General."

The boat traveled very fast and hurriedly, and when they were two ferry crossings away from the capital, they went ashore to rest.

She planned to find out the situation before going to Beijing, and Hua Yan came in the rain that night.

"I haven't left yet just in case, but I didn't expect you to actually come back."

Jiang Li and his men were still in Qiu Shui Village and had been planning to withdraw recently, but after hearing two major pieces of news, everyone stayed.

Jiang Xue Ning poured her a cup of hot tea and asked, "Is the news that Duan Xilou is still alive true or false?"

She drank a few sips of tea and her whole body warmed up. Then she slowly spoke, "It's true, and he has been locked up in a dark cell all these years, so we couldn't find him."

Everything that happened back then was sudden and tragic. By the time their people lay dormant and escaped the emperor's encirclement and purge, many things could no longer be verified.

She felt relieved, "It's good to be alive."

Hua Yan frowned and said, "Helian Xuan kept him for so many years, just waiting for this day."

Duan Xilou's influence is second only to Gu Mingyue, and he had been through thick and thin with Gu Mingyue, and was completely her right-hand man.

Gu Mingyue is dead, and Duan Xilou is the trump card in Helian Xuan's hand.

Once the news came out, it was impossible for those who followed them to remain indifferent. In addition, the unknown "Gu Mingyue" was also on the way to Beijing, which was a complete trap.

"He will be able to catch quite a few people this time."

Jiang Xue Ning sneered, "If he wants to catch them all in one fell swoop, it depends on whether he has the ability to do so."

Hua Yan also said proudly, "Since the bait has been put down, then let's just pull this fisherman into the water and drown him."

No matter what, for Duan Xilou, they have to go in even if the capital is now a dangerous place.

In the Golden Palace, Zhongqiu was obviously uneasy today. Helian Xuan grabbed her waist, let her sit on his lap and pinched her chin, "My beloved, what are you thinking about? Are you thinking about your brother in the West Tower?"

She called Gu Mingyue sister back then, so naturally she called Duan Xilou brother.

Zhongqiu fluttered her eyelashes, "Can't I think about it?"

"You can imagine that many people are thinking about him." Helian Xuan chuckled, "Do you want to go see him?"

"May I?"

A flash of coldness flashed across Helian Xuan's eyes. "Don't worry, you will see him on the execution ground soon. I will definitely take my beloved concubine to watch. It will be a journey of being cut into pieces. My beloved concubine, please don't be scared when the time comes."

Zhongqiu's heart tightened, and he could hardly suppress his hatred. He just wanted to stab him to death with a knife!

"The bait has been cast. My dear, guess how many fish will be caught."
