In charge

Just when Jiang Fengmin was distracted, she suddenly felt a pain on her face, and she hurriedly lowered her head to look at the person pinching her face.

"Look at me." Shu Yunci was dissatisfied with her absent-mindedness.

Jiang Fengmin lowered his head and kissed her slightly pursed mouth, it was so sweet.Shu Yunci's whole body was sleeping warmly, and it was very comfortable to hold her.

Just when the temperature in the room was getting higher and higher, and both of them couldn't control it, Jiang Fengmin suddenly heard the sound of clothes ripping through the air outside.She knew that Shu Yunci could no longer hear him because of lack of internal energy, so she whispered in Shu Yunci's ear: "There are people up there."

Shu Yunci let out a "tsk" depressingly, "I really know how to pick my time."

Jiang Fengmin laughed with a "puchi", "It's okay, we have plenty of time."

Shu Yunci found out that Jiang Fengmin had misinterpreted this, and was so angry that he stretched out his hand to scratch her.Jiang Fengmin grabbed the slender fingers and put them in his palms. "You are becoming more and more like a fish ball." Cute and clingy like a cat.

Shu Yunci was even more dissatisfied, narrowing his eyes and not speaking.

"I was wrong. It should be said that the fish ball looks more and more like you." Jiang Fengmin couldn't help but kissed her again, but she pushed his face away with a slap.

"Let me go." Her Majesty the Empress got up arrogantly, kicking and struggling.

Jiang Fengmin's heart trembled when he heard this. If Shu Yunci had been accumulating energy and preparing to use his big move in the past, now he begged to let go so cutely, it would be too cute.

Although he said he was taking advantage of others, Jiang Fengmin decided not to let go.

Shu Yunci was hugged tightly, but he couldn't break free, and he was so tired that he was out of breath.She glared at Jiang Fengmin angrily, "Will you let go?"

"Don't let go!" Jiang Fengmin became more courageous.

Shu Yunci sneered and said, "Jiang Fengmin, don't think that I will never recover my internal strength."

Oh My God!This is so angry that I even changed my self-proclaimed "Zhen".Jiang Fengmin immediately put the man on the bed, then stopped, saying that he had done nothing and was innocent.

Shu Yunci kicked her angrily before giving up. "Tell you to bully me!"

The angry Queen made Jiang Fengmin laugh non-stop. "Yunci, do you want to be so cute? Am I attracted to you?" Jiang Fengmin took Shu Yunci's hand and pressed it to his left chest, "This is all about you."

Facing the love talk, Shu Yunci's angry expression couldn't hold back any longer. She poked Jiang Fengmin's collarbone and said, "From now on, if you dare to bully me like this again, get out of Xihua Palace!"

"Yes, yes, I dare not again." Jiang Fengmin bowed.

At this time, not only Jiang Fengmin, but even Shu Yunci heard the sound of fighting outside.Si Ping knocked on the door and came in to report, "Your Majesty, there are assassins outside, and the guards are blocking them." After all, there was Jiang Fengmin sitting in the room, and Si Ping was not too flustered.

"Understood." Shu Yunci responded, and when Si Ping turned around, she said again: "When will dinner be served? I'm hungry." Her words were like a child who had been out in the field for a day. Same as mother said.

Si Ping suppressed a smile and said, "Your maidservant will pass on the meals."

Probably because he was assassinated too many times, no one in the palace took it seriously from top to bottom.However, the assassin this time was really powerful, and the guards of the inner circle surrounded him after many rounds of fighting before finally taking him down.

Jiang Fengmin had dinner with Shu Yunci and drank another cup of tea before he was arrested there.

Shu Yunci shook his head helplessly, "I want to point these people to save my life, the throne can be changed long ago."

Jiang Fengmin stood up, "I'll go outside to see what's going on."

After Jiang Fengmin left, Shu Yunci, who was full of sleep, wanted to get out of bed for a walk. After all, she had been lying on the bed for so many days, and she felt that her legs were going to be useless.

As soon as she got out of bed, she felt the cold wind blowing in, and the cold light had already flashed.An assassin's sword was blocked by Jiang Fengmin's whirling spear in front of her eyes.

Shu Yunci raised her eyebrows, it was the first time in her life that she felt that the danger was so close to her.Seeing that he missed a hit, the assassin turned around and fled.Jiang Fengmin chased the assassin out.

Shu Yunci re-

Sitting on the bed, I thought to myself that with such an obvious routine, do these assassins have no brains?

Sure enough, another assassin came in through the window.The long sword in his hand was shining with a cold light, and he went straight to stab at Shu Yunci.

Shu Yunci didn't dodge or dodge, he didn't even blink his eyes.The assassin's sword was already in front of him, and Jiang Fengmin had already rushed over.

The assassin didn't hesitate, and still rushed towards Shu Yunci.Obviously he was desperate to kill Shu Yunci even if he lost his life.

With a flash of blue light and a sound of "clang", the long sword in the assassin's hand was blocked. At this moment, Jiang Fengmin's whirling spear pierced into the back of the assassin.

The blood burst out, and the assassin fell to the ground with a scream, twitched twice and stopped moving.

Jiang Fengmin's face was pale, she was a step too slow just now, if Shu Yunci hadn't blocked it with the Yuhu sword, she would have been injured right now.

"I..." She didn't know how to explain for a while.

Shu Yunci returned the Yuhu Sword to its sheath, "It's all right, let someone come in and clean it up."

When Si Ping came in and saw blood all over the floor, she was so frightened that she immediately came over to check on Shu Yunci's situation. "Your Majesty, are you...are you alright?"

"I'm fine." Shu Yunci pouted at Jiang Fengmin, "Look at her, she looks uglier than mine."

Si Ping would not listen to Shu Yunci's jokes, so she hurried out and asked someone to carry the body out, cleaned the blood, and lit incense to disperse the bloody smell.During the whole process, Jiang Fengmin just stood by the bed, neither speaking nor leaving.Shu Yunci ignored her, and sent people to send all the captured assassins to the Executive Department, so that Yue Yingxi could tell the truth.

After the silk bottle was withdrawn, the room returned to silence.Shu Yunci beckoned, and Jiang Fengmin sat down beside her obediently. "Yunci, I'm sorry, I was careless."

"It's because we are used to the previous way of fighting the enemy. No matter how you attack, you don't have to pay too much attention to my safety, after all, my internal strength was still there at that time." She patted Jiang Fengmin's face, "Although I am gone now Inner strength, don't underestimate me, a little airs are fine." Even if she has no inner strength, she is much stronger than ordinary people.It's just that she can't hard-wire the assassin's sword, she can only push it away with the sword, which is the most labor-saving and safest way.

"It won't happen in the future." Jiang Fengmin hugged her in his arms, "I won't push you any further, everything is your safety first."

If a person wants to grow, he always needs to experience something.Jiang Fengmin couldn't stop once he made a move. What happened just now made her understand that if she wants to protect someone well, she can't do whatever she wants.

Yue Yingxi interrogated the assassin she sent, and found that the assassin was actually sent by someone from Shangde Palace.They knew that Shu Yunci was injured internally, so they sent someone to assassinate him.As for the chief envoy, the assassin said it was the Supreme Emperor.

Yue Yingxi presented this result to Shu Yunci, but Shu Yunci only said that it was impossible to be the Supreme Emperor and asked Yue Yingxi to try again.

"Your Majesty, what the assassin said is the truth. Look, is there any misunderstanding?" Yue Yingxi interrogated her several times, but she always gave the same answer.She was sure the assassins had told them all they knew.

"Misunderstanding?" Shu Yunci stopped the vermilion pen in his hand, and looked up at Yue Yingxi.

After this period of training, Yue Yingxi has become more and more reliable in her work, and has become more and more respectful and rigorous like a courtier.Of course there will be such a change, Shu Yunci often finds her master to teach her.The ancient scrolls about punishment and prison laws in the Ancient Scroll Pavilion were delivered in bundles, and Yue Yingxi wondered if Her Majesty wanted her to take over the Ministry of Punishment.

"Weichen made sure that he had asked the truth."

"In that case, it's useless to keep those people, let them go." Shu Yunci said lightly.

"Release?" Yue Yingxi didn't understand what the empress meant, and turned to Jiang Fengmin who was asking for help.

Jiang Fengmin nodded slightly, signaling to Yue Yingxi to follow suit, and Yue Yingxi then resigned.

"She hesitated about my will, but she believed in you very much." Shu Yunci was a little puzzled.

"From her point of view, I am on the same level as hers. She just can't understand His Majesty's thoughts." Shu Yunci understood Yue Yingxi's thoughts very well.

However, for ordinary people like them, Shu Yunci's thoughts are really unpredictable.Occasionally, I can understand Shu Yunci's thoughts, it's just because of the time and the understanding of each other too well.

Curly smoke rose from the gold-painted incense burner on the table, and a very faint fragrance wafted out.This is Junyi incense newly produced in the south of Yin Kingdom. Its fragrance is light and elegant, and it is very popular with literati and refined scholars, so it is named Junyi.

Last month, a batch of tributes were sent to the palace from the south, and Jun Yixiang was inside.Shu Yunci has been recuperating her body recently, trying to find a way to restore her internal strength, which inevitably affected her mood. After lighting this Junyixiang, she really cleared her mind and concentrated her mind. Gradually, she only used Junyixiang.

"She doesn't understand, can you understand?" Shu Yunci was tired of approving memorials, so he took Jiang Fengmin's hand and pressed it on his neck, beckoning her to massage him.

Jiang Fengmin's hands gently kneaded Shu Yunci's neck, and the tactile sensation under his fingers was wonderful. "You want to follow the clues."

"You said that she doesn't know things that you can even figure out. Isn't she stupid?" After Shu Yunci said this, she felt her neck tighten. Min supported the back of the head and kissed it firmly.

"You..." Shu Yunci didn't push it away, and kicked Jiang Fengmin hard with some anger, which made her relax. "I'm busy with political affairs." After all, matters of love are just personal affairs between children. Since she is the king of a country, she can't just indulge in love.

"Go and help me track down the whereabouts of those assassins." Shu Yunci waved his hand, it would be better to send Jiang Fengmin away so that she could concentrate on approving the memorials.

"I can't leave your side." Jiang Fengmin said seriously.

"Are you worried that I won't be able to protect myself?" Shu Yunci looked at the Yuhu Sword hanging beside him, with arrogance in his eyes.

Jiang Fengmin didn't dare to admit it.But not speaking is also the default meaning.

"There are big inner guards in the palace, even if it doesn't do anything, I can still block it. But if those assassins really disappear, I will be even more dangerous." After all, Shu Yunci was unwilling to use his status as emperor to suppress Jiang Fengmin. Just patiently explain the pros and cons.

Jiang Fengmin didn't say anything more, turned around and left the imperial study.

Seeing Jiang Fengmin going out, the silk vase guarding the door came in to serve him. "Your Majesty, have a cup of hot tea." She took the tea tray from the little maid and brought it in.

Shu Yunci took the teacup and took a sip, "Go to the Sheng Mansion and bring some Jun Yixiang to Xue Cang to see, and tell the prime minister that I rewarded it."

"Yes." Si Ping hurriedly took Jun Yixiang to Sheng Mansion.

After the silk vase left, two more maids came in to serve, but Shu Yunci ignored him and concentrated on writing the memorial.

Let's talk about Jiang Fengmin, who left the Xihua Hall and guarded directly near the executive department.After those assassins were sent out of the palace, they walked in different directions.Jiang Feng said compassionately: What's the matter?Which one are you chasing after?While hesitating, Yue Yingxi had already landed beside her.Jiang Fengmin saw that several big inner guards had already followed a person, and followed him in different directions.

Yue Yingxi whispered: "They will set off fireworks as a warning when they catch up with someone, and then we'll just chase them as fast as possible."

Jiang Fengmin asked in surprise, "You arranged all of these?"

Yue Yingxi nodded and said in surprise, "Don't you mean that?"

Yue Yingxi scratched her head, "That... that's what I meant."

The two sat and chatted on the roof of the palace, without saying a word.

Yue Yingxi said frankly that she will not be a female official in the deep palace for the rest of her life, after all, she is still trying to save her life.As long as she hides for a few years and avoids the limelight for a while, she still has to leave.

Jiang Fengmin just shook his head, Yue Yingxi was still too naive.The people Shu Yunci puts her heart and soul into cultivating will never leave her.Once you have enjoyed that extreme feeling of promotion, that feeling that all the resources of a country are tilted towards you, you will never be able to live without it.

If it is a man, you can probably go to other countries to try your luck.But if it was a woman, where else would she have a better chance than the rapidly growing Yin Kingdom?

The two were chatting when they saw a firework blooming in the sky to the north.This is the contact firework used in the Yin Kingdom Palace. The color will change from light to dark after going up to the sky, and it will be bright red when it finally disappears, which is extremely conspicuous.

Jiang Fengmin and Yue Yingxi looked at each other, and they chased them out together.Although Jiang Fengmin is not good at lightness kung fu, few people can catch up to her lightness kung fu.To her surprise, although Yue Yingxi gradually opened up the gap with her, the gap was very small, and after reaching a certain distance, she was not separated again.Jiang Fengmin could conclude that Yue Yingxi's martial arts were much higher than when he first met him.

Before they had time to think too much, the two had already arrived at the place where the fireworks were raised one by one.There was silence all around, and there was a winding bloodstain on the ground.The two searched all the way along the bloodstains, and found Ouchi guards covered in blood in an old house.

Jiang Fengmin went over to check on the guard's situation, raised his head and said, "He's still alive." She touched the guard's acupoints to help stop the bleeding.Yue Yingxi had already chased into the yard.

Jiang Fengmin tore off the guard's clothes to help him hastily bandage him, and moved the man to the wall. Someone should be chasing him from behind. If the guard can last until someone comes, he may be able to save him.

There was a sudden sound of fighting in the yard, and Jiang Fengmin rushed over immediately, only to see Yue Yingxi fighting with a man in blue.Jiang Fengmin didn't act in a hurry, but took the opportunity to search the inside and outside of the house.Except for the body of a man in black, nothing was found.

When she returned to the yard again, Yue Yingxi had already taken her down.Jiang Fengmin crossed his arms and watched Yue Yingxi take out a rope to tie him up. His skills were no less than that of an old policeman for many years.

"What a neat way!" she praised.

"The first thing my master taught me is how to tie people up." Yue Yingxi said as she stretched out her hand and poked the man in blue a few times. The man's expression immediately became sluggish, and he no longer had the energy he had just now.

Jiang Fengmin didn't understand what kind of trick this was.

"One of the secrets His Majesty gave me is to seal the meridians of martial arts practitioners to prevent the penetration of internal energy." Yue Yingxi used it for the first time today, and it seems to work well.

This kind of martial art Jiang Fengmin has seen in Shu Yunci's secret books, it is called "Shuo Shenzhi".She just didn't expect that Shu Yunci would hand over this kind of secret book to Yue Yingxi.

Soon after, the palace guards came, took the injured Ouchi guards to the nearest doctor to stop the bleeding, and then returned to the palace.

Jiang Fengmin was worried about Shu Yunci's safety, so he went to Xihua Palace as soon as he returned to the palace, but he didn't see Shu Yunci, nor did he find the silk bottle.She asked the little maid, but the little maid didn't know where Shu Yunci was.

She was in a hurry when she saw a flower bed move, and fish balls came out of it.Seeing her let out a "meow", then a tiger pounced and jumped into her arms.Fortunately, the fish ball has always been quite slender, and this pounce is strong enough.

"Yu Wan, do you know where Yun Ci has gone?" Jiang Fengmin scratched Yu Wan's neck, and the little black cat purred comfortably.

The comfortable fish ball broke free from Jiang Fengmin's embrace, jumped onto the wall in a few strokes, and walked away along the top of the wall.Seeing it go away, Jiang Fengmin shook her head and was about to continue looking for Shu Yunci, when she heard a "meow", she looked up and saw Yuball looking back at her on the wall.

Jiang Fengmin didn't understand what the cat meant, so he just looked at it.Yu Wan took a few steps forward, turned around and saw that she was still looking at him, and called out again.

Jiang Fengmin tentatively chased up the wall for a few steps, and Yu Wan continued to walk forward.As long as Jiang Fengmin stopped following, Yu Wan would call her back.In this way, Yu Wan walked all the way, Jiang Fengmin followed, one person and one cat gradually came to a remote palace.Jiang Fengmin carefully identified it, and found that it was Baohuyuan, the palace where Shu Yunci lived when he was a child.

Baohu Garden has been abandoned since Shu Yunci moved away, and it is only cleaned by someone on weekdays.Since Shu Yunci came to the throne, because the harem was empty, most of the palace people were lazy, and even the daily cleaning was so-so. After all, the emperor hardly came to this kind of place. Who would pay attention to it if they didn't sweep it?

Baohu Garden was very quiet, but there was a wave of internal force fluctuations that were both familiar and unfamiliar.Jiang Fengmin realized that this might be Shu Yunci's internal force, and hurriedly jumped from the wall into the courtyard.she

Just as he was about to enter the main hall, suddenly a wave of internal force swept towards him, so strong that Jiang Fengmin didn't dare to meet him forcefully, and was forced to retreat abruptly.

The fish ball was also within the scope of the internal force at this time, and it flew out directly, and it was about to hit the wall. Jiang Fengmin swooped and saved the fish ball.

The little black cat was so frightened that it shivered. It nestled the cat's head in Jiang Fengmin's arm and dared not stretch it out. Its cry was weak and helpless.

Jiang Fengmin was also terrified, standing outside the door and not daring to go in easily.She waited for a while, and found that the internal force inside could no longer be felt, so she pushed the door into the main hall with the fish ball in her arms.

Although Baohuyuan has not been lived in for a long time, the hall is not messy.All the furnishings are still the same, but less popular.On the seat in the middle of the main hall, Shu Yunci leaned on the chair weakly, his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and he looked very tired.

"Your internal strength has recovered?" Jiang Fengmin didn't dare to judge.

Shu Yunci shook his head. "It's just that moment, it's fleeting."

Jiang Fengmin came over and put the fish ball on Shu Yunci's lap, and the fish ball licked Shu Yunci's finger like a dog, with a flattering look on his face.

Shu Yunci gently scratched Yuball's neck with his hand, his expression gradually relaxed.

Jiang Fengmin grabbed her wrist, and when he checked his inner breath, his heart was overwhelmed. "Yunci, what internal strength are you practicing?" Although Jiang Fengmin couldn't feel the flow of internal strength in her body, there was a faint evil energy flowing with her blood.The foundation that Jiang Fengmin has learned all his life is the Ice Jue. Although this kind of internal strength is difficult to practice and progresses slowly, it is a very orthodox and pure internal strength, and even the slightest trace of evil can be detected.

"Did you feel it?" Shu Yunci rubbed the fish ball in his arms, "The Xuantian Mantra I practiced before is actually a part of the yin and cunning kung fu. The biggest advantage of the yin and cunning kung fu is that it can quickly increase internal strength. achievement."

"You are drinking poison to quench your thirst!" Jiang Fengmin felt that with Shu Yunci's intelligence, he should be able to understand the harm of the devil's kung fu.How many people took risks because they couldn't resist the temptation of quick results and powerful magic skills, and their reputations were ruined in the end.How could Shu Yunci do this?

"Yes." There was no hesitation on Shu Yunci's face, "If I want to restore my internal strength, this is the only way I can do it."

Jiang Fengmin knew Shu Yunci very well, and no one could change the decisions made by her Majesty the Empress. "I heard that magic skills can directly absorb other people's internal energy for your own use." She took Shu Yunci's hand and faced her palm, "Yunci, I will give you my internal energy, so don't practice tricky tricks anymore." It worked."

Shu Yunci chuckled and withdrew his hand. "Feng Min, do you think I will agree? I want your internal strength, or the internal strength of other people in this palace, isn't it just a matter of one sentence?" She narrowed her eyes dangerously, "Do you not believe me? , I think I will be disturbed by the magic power in the end, right?"

Jiang Fengmin shook his head, "Then tell me, why did you come to such a remote palace?"

"Of course it's because of him." Shu Yunci pointed to the side with his slender fingers, and Jiang Fengmin turned his head to look over, only to see Shu Zhengwei sitting in the corner behind the door.

"Girl, do you only have Xiao Ci'er in your eyes? You can't see a living person like this old man here." Shu Zhengwei said with some dissatisfaction.

Uh...Jiang Fengmin really didn't realize there was anyone in the room.Since Shu Zheng is in danger, why can't she feel the existence of the other party's inner strength?But these are not the point.

"Senior, you agreed with Yun Ci's practice of devil art?" Jiang Fengmin felt that Shu Zhengwei would not do such nonsense.

Shu Zhengwei didn't admit it or deny it, the face under his tousled hair was a little weird. "Little Ci'er must recover her internal strength. What she said is correct. The fastest way right now is to practice Yincungong. With the Xuantian Mantra as her foundation, she will be able to regain her internal strength in three to two years."

Jiang Fengmin still felt that this method was inappropriate.If it were really that simple, there would be no ordinary people in this martial arts world.

Seeing that she still wanted to talk, Shu Zhengwei hurriedly said: "Girl, I know you care about Xiao Ci'er. Then you must support her and do as much as possible to reduce her burden instead of stopping her. Have you forgotten that she is a gift from God?" God bless her."

Jiang Fengmin's face was wrinkled like a bitter melon.She felt that even people like Shu Zhengwei had said unreliable words like relying on God. It seemed that Shu Yunci's internal strength was not easy to recover.

"Feng Min, you go back to Xihua Hall first, I have something to say to Master." Shu Yunci seemed to have recovered at this moment, got up and walked to Jiang Fengmin's side, patted her shoulder lightly, showing a gentle smile, Jiang Fengmin was coaxed into a daze and carried the fish balls away.

Shu Zhengwei shook his head, "You really eat this silly girl to death."

"Because she's stupid." Shu Yunci suppressed her smile. "Master, you must not tell her about me. She takes me too seriously." She pushed open the door of the temple, staring at the sky above, with birds flying by, free and easy.

"Little Ci'er, this road is very dangerous, do you really want to gamble?" Shu Zhengwei's tone became serious.

Shu Yunci took a deep breath, turned around and said with a smile: "You have said it all, I am a man gifted by God, and will be blessed by God."

When Shu Yunci returned to Xihua Palace, the silk bottle had already returned.Jiang Fengmin was also like a cat, jumping up and down with the fish ball and making a fuss.

Si Ping said depressedly: "Your Majesty, look at the general, several court ladies are frightened by her."

Shu Yunci raised his head, hooked his hands at a man and a cat on the wall, Jiang Fengmin and Yu Wan rushed over immediately.The difference was that the fish balls rushed into Shu Yunci's arms, but Jiang Fengmin didn't dare, and stood aside and stared at the fish balls with dissatisfaction.

"Enough trouble?" Shu Yunci's words were cold.

Jiang Fengmin was indeed having a fight.She felt that Shu Yunci would have something behind her back, what does this mean?It shows that she is no longer Shu Yunci's most trusted person.

Seeing that Jiang Fengmin kept his mouth shut, Shu Yunci put the fish balls into her arms, "If you haven't had enough trouble, continue to make trouble. The maids and eunuchs in this palace are used to seeing fish balls, and now I don't want one more big one." It’s just a cat, it’s nothing unusual if you’re used to it.”

Jiang Fengmin shrank his neck, Her Majesty the Empress was really angry.She quickly threw the fish ball away, and said with a lost smile, "I'm bored, I played with the fish ball for a while, and there was no trouble, absolutely nothing."

Shu Yunci looked at her suspiciously, Jiang Fengmin continued to laugh until his cheeks were sore, Shu Yunci nodded. "Help me with something. There is a severe drought in the east, and I urgently need money to relieve the disaster. You go to Languo to borrow 500 million taels of silver, and tell Lanhuang Qiaojian that I borrowed from him this time. When Yinguo has money, I will pay him back." .”

Of course Jiang Fengmin didn't want to leave Shu Yunci at this time. Shu Yunci, who was assassinated all day long but had no internal strength to protect himself, was too dangerous.But since she has become an official of the Yin Kingdom, she has to obey the emperor's will.No matter what the relationship between the two is in private, on the surface they are still monarchs and ministers after all.

In order to come back as soon as possible, Jiang Fengmin left overnight.Si Ping sighed and said, "Your Majesty, the general really cares about you."

"So? You think I treat her badly?" Shu Yunci was taking a bath.

Silk Vase didn't dare to admit it, she took a comb to help Shu Yunci comb her long hair, "Your Majesty, Miss Blood Silkworm looked at Jun Yixiang and said that there is nothing wrong with this incense, but I just advise you not to use it for a long time. Jun Yixiang can soothe your mind. Miss Blood Silkworm said, when the Yin Kingdom is developing, His Majesty should not be too relaxed."

Shu Yunci immersed her body in the warm pool water, and relieved her exhaustion, but she had too many things in her heart, and she couldn't find anyone to tell, and she didn't want to tell others.

The next day, Empress Ning Zhen issued an edict that the empress could not attend the court due to physical reasons, and the prime minister Sheng Ci was responsible for all major affairs in the court.There was a lot of discussion among the ministers about this.This is the second time that Empress Ningzhen has been unable to go to court in two months. Could it be that Empress is really sick?Many ministers have various channels to inquire about news from the palace, but they find nothing.Because Empress Ning Zhen never showed her face since she stopped going to court.

On the northwestern border of the Yin Kingdom, there are fierce mountains and harsh waters, and the weather is cold and freezing.There is a deserted village on the border. The houses in the village are scattered, but there is no smoke at dinner time.At night, when there was no moon or stars in the sky, Shu Yunci took the Yuhu sword and entered the pitch-black deserted village.In the darkness, a little bit of fluorescent light flickered, floating in the air like a will-o'-the-wisp.

Unmoved, she stepped on the thin ground step by step.

The heavy snow came to the end of the village, suddenly, with a gust of gloomy wind, a few white ghost figures floated out of a big house at the end of the village.

"Is this the real 'gloom floating in the air'?" Shu Yunci raised his head and asked.

The ghost shadows quickly surrounded her, Shu Yunci took a look, the five ghost shadows seemed to have no substance at all, but the moves that the ghost shadows made were real.

Shu Yunci has no internal strength, so he can only dodge, and if he can't dodge, he uses the Yuhu sword to block.Without the support of internal strength, she struggled to resist.The encirclement circle formed by the five ghost shadows gradually gathered together, and it was already encircling.Shu Yunci, whose activity space was further compressed, couldn't even dodge, and could only rely on the Yuhu sword to barely support him.

But this kind of resistance couldn't be watertight after all, and soon, she was hit on the back, Shu Yunci spat out a mouthful of blood, and her steps were already a little staggering.Several ghost figures have basically completed the encirclement, and they kept floating above Shu Yunci.At this moment, extremely thin silk threads appeared in their hands, but in such a dark place, they couldn't be found at all.

The silk thread wrapped around Shu Yunci's body, binding her hands and feet, and now she really couldn't move at all.Shu Yunci frowned, such a thin silk thread was strangled directly into her flesh, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.

"Emperor Ning Zhen, you actually came here to seek death." An old voice sounded in midair.

A silk thread wrapped around Shu Yunci's neck, and bloodstains appeared on her slender neck instantly.Enduring the severe pain all over her body, Shu Yunci urged her internal force with all her strength, and the silk thread successfully sealed several of her main meridians. Under such circumstances, even a master with internal force would be greatly sealed, but this happened It doesn't work for her.

The silk thread wrapped around her neck gradually tightened, and the old voice said: "Empress Ning Zhen, go to the underworld."

The silk thread tightened, and the blood burst out.The rain of blood fell all over the sky, drenching Shu Yunci's body, making her blood-soaked dress almost turn red.

"Sure enough, they are all living people." Shu Yunci's neck was not broken, but the silk threads all over his body were broken.She stood up staggeringly, and the five ghosts above had turned into five corpses, completely ghosts, but they couldn't float anymore.

Shu Yunci spat out another mouthful of blood, his body was so unstable that he needed to lean on the ground with his sword to stand still.A few lanterns floated out of the mansion again, and they came straight towards her at a very fast speed.

Shu Yunci put his sword on the ground with his right hand, and raised his left hand. There was nothing in his hand, but he extinguished the first lantern that had already flown close.As soon as the lantern was extinguished, it immediately fell to the ground without any attack power.

After extinguishing four lanterns in a row, Shu Yunci not only did not continue to weaken, but was able to stand up straight.The fifth lantern was already in front of her, and her Yuhu sword accidentally pierced in. The candle inside the lantern was cut off by the Yuhu sword, and the whole lantern fell to the ground.

Seeing that the sixth lantern was about to fly out again, he saw a flash of blue light, directly splitting open the door of the mansion. A man in white with a face so pale that it could scare people was split in half by the sword energy. There were still a few unlit lanterns in his hand Bright lanterns.

Shu Yunci was not in a hurry to go in. He tore off his coat and bandaged his body briefly, and then stepped into the door.The inside of the mansion was pitch black, Shu Yunci looked left and right, there were internal force fluctuations on both sides, apparently there were many people waiting to make a move.She didn't move forward, put away the Yuhu sword, flipped her palms over, and pushed it out flatly. She couldn't see anything in the dark, but the internal force fluctuations in the rooms on both sides suddenly became violent.

Shu Yunci mobilized his own internal strength, retracted his palms from a flat push, pinched his hand, and suddenly several people jumped out from the room on both sides, and they vomited blood and fell to the ground within a few steps after they came out.Then more people ran out of the room, vomiting blood and falling to the ground.When Shu Yunci withdrew his internal energy, the courtyard was full of people twitching and vomiting blood.

Shu Yunci picked up a will-o'-the-wisp lantern from the side, blew on the fire and lit it, and finally there was a little light in the yard. "If you want to survive, come out quickly. In terms of helping me recover my internal strength, I can spare your life." Her voice was still weak, but the tone of her words was very conceited.

The internal force in the room still exists, and there is no intention of coming out at all.Shu Yunci has never been a patient person, she silently counted to ten in her heart, and when she saw the other party

Still not planning to come out, she pinched a fist again with her hand. The white and slender fingers were very beautiful under the weak light, as if they were a work of art.

There was already a smell of blood in the air, but it was even thicker now.The internal force in the room has disappeared, presumably the person is dead.

Shu Yunci seemed to be understating it, but in fact, with her current physical condition, her burden was greatly increased. At this time, she was already at the end of her strength.She leaned against the door panel, her eyes moved among the twitching people on the ground, and at this moment, her eyes were attracted by the black smoke rising from the ground.

When the smoke rose, those convulsed people on the ground stopped their convulsions.The smoke was so thick that it quickly covered the ground.Shu Yunci had already exited the mansion, but the smoke spread extremely fast, closely following her footsteps.

Shu Yunci had no choice but to fly up to the roof.Then, more black smoke rose from the roof, quickly forming a single piece.

"Be careful!" Suddenly a familiar voice sounded, and immediately Shu Yunci was hugged, and the rapidly dropping temperature around her made her laugh.Sure enough, Jiang Fengmin's Ice Art is the best to deal with this kind of smoke.

The person who came was naturally Jiang Fengmin. She hugged Shu Yunci with one hand, but felt that the tentacles were all sticky.Her other hand made several palms in a row, and the icy true energy caused the rising smoke to frost and descend.She took advantage of this time to take Shu Yunci out of the deserted village after a few ups and downs.

"Ahem..." Shu Yunci coughed up blood.Jiang Fengmin was originally holding back his anger.She went to Lan Guo to extort money and came back, only to find that Shu Yunci was not in the palace.She searched for Sheng Ci, but failed to find out the result, so she went to find Shu Zhengwei, but fortunately, Shu Zhengwei told her the truth.

"Little Ci'er's cultivation of Yin and Scheming Kung Fu does not mean regaining her internal strength. No matter how fast she can practice Yin and Sly Kung Fu, it is still not as good as her ten years of hard training. She just wants to use the Yin and Sly Kung Fu as an introduction to restore her internal strength. That's all." After Shu Yunci left, the more Shu Zhengwei thought about it, the more he felt that Shu Yunci's method was risky, and if Jiang Fengmin didn't come back in time, he was ready to chase after him.

When Jiang Fengmin heard that Shu Yunci was going to use the method of putting him to death to restore his internal strength, his expression changed in fright.She knew Shu Yunci's love for the mystery of death, but she couldn't do it, she would be scared to death just thinking about it.She rushed to the deserted village in the southwest without stopping, and saw Shu Yunci's figure sluggish in the black mist.

She who was holding Shu Yunci at this moment was still afraid, if this came a little later, she was not sure whether she would be able to rescue him smoothly at this moment.

But even if the person was rescued, she was still powerless to deal with Shu Yunci's current terrible state.

Fortunately, another helper came at this time, a carriage stopped, and the blood silkworm raised the curtain and said: "Help Your Majesty up quickly."

The carriage was extremely spacious, and Xue Cang asked Jiang Fengmin to lay Shu Yunci flat. She first gave Shu Yunci a few pills, and then injected needles to help her open the blocked meridians in her body.However, once the meridians were opened, the bleeding from the wound on Shu Yunci's body became more severe.

"Take off your majesty's clothes, I want to stop the bleeding." Xue Cang turned her head and prepared the things to stop the bleeding.

Jiang Fengmin almost pulled Shu Yun
