Xiang Gong rode his black horse across the vast plain, not daring to stop for a moment, and finally after running for two or three days, he successfully reached the border.

"Whoever comes here is not allowed to enter the military base."

Several soldiers stopped Xiang Gong outside the military camp, and Xiang Gong showed the pass token in his arms to the soldier.

"Please give this to General Lin Mo. I need to see him for something."

A soldier looked at the token in his hand. This thing was extremely precious. With it, one could enter and exit any place in Li State at will. There were only two in the whole country of Li State, and one of them must be with the emperor. The soldier looked at Xiang Gong and thought that this man must have a noble background, so he said immediately.

"Wait a minute, I'll be there soon."

In less than a moment, Lin Mo came out. He was surprised when he saw that the person was Xiang Gong. He knew this person because he had captured him personally. The pass was awarded to Qingling by His Majesty. Now this thing was in Xiang Gong's hands. Something must have happened to Qingling.

"This way please, let's talk inside the tent."

"Ah."

Xiang Gong told Lin Mo and others all about how Si Bai controlled Li He and His Majesty's affairs.

"That's it. Qingling told me to be careful of Si Bai's eyes, which have the power of temptation. When I came out, Li Guoguo was on high alert, and the news inside could not be transmitted at all. I don't know what happened to the boss now." Xiang Gong was full of worry. When he came out, Qingling's face was very bad. Although Qingling told him that it was okay, he felt very uncomfortable as if a sharp knife was hanging in his heart.

Mu Qi looked sullen and said nothing, and walked out of the tent directly.

"Kusu wait!!"

Lin Mo knew that Mu Qi wanted to go back to find Qing Ling, so he quickly stood up and stopped him.

"Let go! Lin Mo! I want to go back to find her!"

"I know what you want to do, but if you act rashly, you will only return empty-handed. Don't risk your life. Qingling and Qingfeng will be sad. They treat you as a family member. What about you? Can't you sober up? Give me half an hour."

After hearing Lin Mo's words, Mu Qi looked into his eyes calmly. Lin Mo's eyes were full of worry, and his worries were no less than his.

"Yes, General."

Zhang Qingfeng looked at Si Bai, Li He and others who came with ill intentions, and carefully protected Qing Ling behind him.

Si Bai found it funny to see Zhang Qingfeng's weak body protecting Qingling.

"Today, I am here on His Majesty's orders to check if there is anything suspicious in Zhang's mansion. Go and look for me."

Si Bai pointed at several soldiers behind him and said, and those soldiers immediately received the order and prepared to move forward.

Qingling kicked a stool directly in front of Si Bai.

"Master Imperial Master, how could you not know whether there is anything in our Zhang Mansion? Didn't you use your special skills to calculate it?"

Si Bai's face changed slightly. He still remembered the feeling of Qing Ling's punches hitting his flesh. It was really scary. This little girl was really strong.

"Qingling, don't be so rude. Apologize to the Imperial Master immediately. We in the Zhang family have always respected our elders."

Lin Zhi walked out from behind Qingling. She raised her eyes and saw that Li He was looking at Qingling with a somewhat cold gaze, as if he had never seen Qingling before. Although she was confused, she did not say much. At the moment, protecting Qingling and the others was more important.

"I'm sorry, Master Imperial Master is very magnanimous and will not argue with a little girl like me."

"Hmph, sharp-tongued," You'll cry someday. Si Bai saw that Qingling's face was not as energetic as when he first saw her. Perhaps the effect of the drug was almost gone.

Si Bai waved his hand, and several soldiers immediately began to look for things everywhere.

Qingling watched them searching here and there and was about to take action, but Lin Zhi held her back and told her not to move.

Soon, the Zhang Mansion was turned into pieces. Zhang Qingfeng tried to rush out several times, but was stopped by Lin Zhiqingling. Si Bai looked at Zhang Qingfeng's fierce eyes and came up with a plan. He walked over and lifted Zhang Qingfeng's chin.

"This little kid is pretty cute. Why don't you let him go to the palace with his brother to play for a few days?"

Qing Ling couldn't bear it this time, and slapped Si Bai hard on the face, causing blood to appear at the corner of his mouth.

It is not okay to bully her, and it is even more unacceptable to bully her brother.

Seeing this, Lin Zhi hurriedly held Qingling and Zhang Qingfeng in her arms. Si Bai looked at Qingling fiercely, as if he was going to bite off Qingling's neck at the next moment.

But Si Bai didn't dare to step forward. A sickly person was too strong. What on earth did he eat to grow up? His teeth felt loose. This Qingling was really annoying. It was like this before and it was even worse now.

"Zhang Qingling, the daughter of the Zhang family, committed a crime by openly assaulting an official. Now I punish you by making you kneel down and reflect on your mistakes. Do you accept this?"

The person who spoke was Li He. His tone was cold and suffocating, and his eyes were like frost, as if he could freeze someone with just one look.

Qing Ling had seen people with cold personalities before, but Li He had always looked at her with doting eyes. He would give her all the delicious, fun, and interesting things. But now everything has changed... She knew that this was not his will, but it still hurt... She had eaten such sweet candy, so she would not be used to it if she had to endure bitterness... That is why she would feel sad unconsciously...

"Everyone has their own share of responsibility. I will kneel down, but if anyone bullies my family, I will not be polite."

Qing Ling patted Lin Zhi's hand lightly, telling her not to worry, she would be fine, and then knelt on the ground. Her waist was straight, and she looked at Si Bai fearlessly, as if to tell him that if he dared to make trouble again, Qing Ling would not let him go now, and would make him suffer even if she died.

Si Bai's face was swollen in half. Since Li He had punished her, he couldn't say anything. Qing Ling looked like she wanted to die with him. He still had to go back to the Pavilion Master, so he naturally wouldn't risk his life with Qing Ling.

"National Master, what do you think of this approach?"

"It all depends on your Highness's wishes."

Li He asked someone to go and see if the thing had been found. After searching for half an hour, they still couldn't find it. Even if they turned the Zhang Mansion upside down, they wouldn't find the thing. After all, Si Bai just came here to cause trouble today.

Looking at Qing Ling kneeling on the ground, Si Bai was in a good mood and wanted to drink a cup of Tianshan Osmanthus Wine right now. It was a pity that he was hit by a palm today.

"Since we haven't found the things, let's go back, Your Highness. By the way, how about leaving someone to look after Miss Zhang? This will prevent her from committing crimes and not knowing how to respect her superiors. What do you think, Your Highness?"

"You..." Zhang Qingfeng immediately wanted to step forward and kick Si Bai twice for bullying his sister. He wanted to fight with them, no matter what the prince or the imperial teacher did.

Seeing this, Xu Wen hurriedly stopped Zhang Qingfeng, otherwise the young lady would have suffered in vain today.

Qingling also told Zhang Qingfeng not to move, otherwise Si Bai would have another attack.

"You stay over there and watch her kneel for five hours before going back." Li He said to a soldier beside him.

"Yes!" the soldier nodded.

Afterwards, Li He led a large group of people out of Zhang's house. The onlookers could not help but feel sorry in their hearts. They didn't know which big shot had offended the Zhang family and bullied them like this. Didn't they save a prince? Why didn't he come to help them?
