Chapter 238
In the woods outside the city, Xian Shen, Chi Li and the owner of Eleven Cave successfully reunited, and the three of them rushed towards the cabin they had agreed upon in advance.

As they went deeper into the woods, the three of them saw arrows stuck on the ground, as well as trees and the ground that had been damaged and eaten by Gu insects.

The ominous premonition in Xian Shen's heart became stronger and stronger. As he went deeper, dead Gu masters and Nanzhao soldiers began to appear around him.

Seeing this, Xian Ginseng directly used Qinggong, tapped the ground with his toes, and his figure turned into a black arc of light and quickly shuttled through the woods.

The original wooden house now only had messy wooden boards scattered on the ground. The surrounding ground seemed to have been burned by flames. There were no other clues except the black marks.

Looking at Xian Shen, whose face was gradually turning cold, Chi Li quickly threw out a handful of Gu insects and began to collect useful information. At the same time, he took half a step forward to Xian Shen's side and silently took her hand.

"Damn Chi Li! I won't let you go so easily, and you actually attacked the dolls."

After searching for a while, they didn't find any clues. Finally, Xianshen decided to go back to the school grounds to join the others.

……

On the school field outside the city, the three of them saw an even messier scene. The ground seemed to have been baked by the flames, cracking into countless clods of soil that resembled the patterns on a tortoise shell.

The school grounds were deserted at the moment, with piles of corpses and dried black blood.Broken tents and blades could be seen everywhere, all telling the three of them that a battle was taking place here.

Xian Shen clenched her fists, gritted her silver teeth, and the muscles on her cheeks bulged. At this moment, Xian Shen had figured everything out.

"We've fallen into a trap! What's the point of Xiao Xiao? There's no execution. All of this is fake! It's all a play that Chi Li sang to us.

Chili knew that we were eager to save people, so he specially made a fake and fake execution to deceive us. While holding us back, he also attacked Hou Qing and others who were hiding in the school grounds. "

After hearing what Xianshen said, the master of Eleven Cave immediately raised his own question, "If the execution is a scam, it is an unavoidable conspiracy. But how did Chi Li know that we would be hidden in this procession of sending off relatives? ?”

"Go find Qianwu. Now there is only one princess in the post house among the three parties. Everything will come to light when we get there."

Chi Li just lowered his head and thought for a moment before giving the answer, and Xianshen did not refuse. This was the best way at the moment.

After the three of them disguised themselves, they set off back to the city again. When they sat down at the tea stall next to the post house, they heard the mutterings of the people in Nanzhao.

"Have you heard that the Grand Master has already connected the princess to the palace in order to ensure her safety?"

"Your news is out of date. I heard that assassins were mixed into the wedding party. Recruiting the princess into the palace seems to be for protection, but in fact it is... wuwu..."

"You don't want your life. If you want to die, please stay away. I don't want to be covered in blood."

Listening to the voices of the people in Nanzhao talking, the three of them confirmed that Qianwu and Ji Ruxue, who were the last insurance, were also missing!

They were dispersed by Chi Li invisibly. Xianshen stood up and walked towards the distance. She was very familiar with the golden silkworm Gu. Now it seemed that she could only find Chi Meng first.

……

In a room in the palace, Qianwu sat there boredly. Besides Ji Ruxue, there were some Miao girls from the Miao border serving beside him.

This is why Qianwu failed to leave any clues, she was being monitored.Because the post house was relatively far from the palace, she and Ji Ruxue noticed the big move on the school grounds immediately.

Just when the two of them had discussed and were about to leave for support, the third move arranged by Chi Li arrived.

Gu masters from the Miao border arrived at the post house, claiming that they were ordered by the great national master Chi Li. Due to the turmoil outside and the rampant assassins, they came specially to welcome the princess into the palace.

Both Ji Ruxue and Qianwu knew that the so-called protection was surveillance.The two of them were guarded very strictly by these Ten Thousand Poison Cave Gu Masters, and there was no chance for them to leave any backup plans or information.

After they entered the palace, everything on their bodies was searched out. Although Su Xinjian was not carried by Ji Ruxue, she still had a small dagger, but now this dagger has also disappeared.

The palace they lived in was full of sword-wielding guards and female Gu Masters of the Miao family, who were said to be taking care of the two people who were unfamiliar with the place.

With these female Gu Masters from Miaojiang around, Ji Ruxue and Qianwu could only communicate secretly through Gu insects.

"Can you contact Chi Meng or Qidong Lord and the others through Gu magic?"

Although Qianwu was there with his eyes closed, Ji Ruxue was also standing there, acting as a suitable maid.

But the two of them had long been immersed in the exchange. Qianwu was silent for a moment after hearing Ji Ruxue's words.

"Nowadays, we are surrounded by Chi Li's spies. If I want to contact the outside world, I will definitely find out.

What you should be thinking about now is not contacting them, but thinking about how we were exposed. "

Hearing Qianwu's voice, Ji Ruxue fell into silence. Yes, this was something she couldn't understand. How were they exposed?

After thinking about it, the only possible flaw was Liu Tai. Ji Ruxue only heard that they made Liu Tai drunk that day and disturbed his memory.

Before Ji Ruxue could think for too long, Liu Tai's figure appeared outside the palace. After many rounds of inspections and reports, Liu Tai entered the inner hall.

Liu Tai's arrival also brought a turn of events, giving Qianwu the opportunity to shield everyone, including Ji Ruxue of course.

After all, she is still a princess on the surface, the mistress of Nanzhao Palace in the future, and the key to peace talks between the two countries.

In addition, this was a whisper between the uncle and nephew. The Gu master in Miaojiang only served people and could only supervise secretly. How could they do anything to stop it.

Under Qianwu's gaze, they Gu Masters withdrew from the inner hall one after another, leaving the space to the uncle and nephew from a foreign land.

After Liu Tai watched everyone in the room exit, he looked at Qianwu and stopped Qianwu in his tracks with the first words he spoke.

"Chi Li massacred Li Xingyun and his party, and the news they hid in our team was secretly passed on by the princess?"

……

Ji Ruxue, who retreated outside the house, took the initiative to help Qianwu close the door. She had received professional training. Although Li Zui loved her very much, she was not allowed to take the initiative to do menial work in Huanyinfang.

But Ji Ruxue would still do it subconsciously, which also made her every move when pretending to be a maid flawless.

The Gu Masters around did not have any doubts about this little maid, she was exactly the same as the maids in their clan.

Ji Ruxue relied on her familiar skills to successfully deceive them, avoid their sight and attention, and began to try to contact the lost people.

Ji Ruxue took out a jade plate from her arms. Now, the only thing that had not been taken away from her body was this jade pendant-like decoration.

Fortunately, the other party didn't know the goods, otherwise the jade slab would have been taken away directly.

Ji Ruxue lowered her head and took small steps to an uninhabited corner of the palace. After looking around to confirm that there was no one else, Ji Ruxue made a secret with her fingers and activated the formation to contact Li Zhen.

……

On the southern line out of Tibet, Wang Zongren sat listlessly on his tall horse. This may be the fate of a working man, especially when you have a sinister boss.

Next to them were the figures of Li Zhen and Jiang Chen. After leaving the empress' sight, Jiang Chen let himself go completely like a wild horse that had escaped the reins.

As for Xu Huan, who was a bedfellow, Jiang Chen had probably forgotten about the sisters who had carried guns together.

At this time, Jiang Chen was sitting sideways on the saddle, his long and well-proportioned jade legs folded together, trembling as the horse moved forward.

Feeling Li Zhen's gaze that seemed to be looking at her slender legs, Jiangchen's mouth curved in a breathtaking arc, and he stretched his waist without hesitation and let out a soft hum.

"Hey, why did you bring Welding Master to Miao territory? Is that Chili so worthy of your precautions?"

Jiangchen raised his hand to rest his chin, his scarlet eyes full of curiosity. Before Li Zui could answer Jiangchen, the two of them heard a shaking sound from Li Zuo's chest.Li Zui took out his communication jade tablet from his arms and looked at the snowflake pattern that appeared on it. Li Zui was also stunned. Ji Ruxue actually took the initiative to find him?
"Girl, look for... [Our whereabouts have been exposed.]"

Seeing herself interjecting, Ji Ruxue said quickly, "We were separated by Chi Li, probably divided into three parts, and we temporarily lost contact with each other.

I'm with Qianwu now. We are trapped in the palace, surrounded by surveillance. How long will it take for you to get to Nanzhao? "

Hearing Ji Ruxue's words, Jiangchen also showed a surprised look. She knew who was involved in Nanzhao, and there were at least four top-notch experts.

It can be said that the people who came to Nanzhao were not inferior to the empress and others who went to Uzang, that is, the lower-level soldiers who did not follow them, but the combat power of the high-level soldiers was not inferior at all.

The surrender turned his gaze to Li Zhen. After all, it was this man who could make the decision. Li Zhen looked at the map spread out on the horse, measured it roughly and said, "Hold on for seven days, and I will lead the Shu army to arrive within seven days." Nanzhao."

As the call between the two ended, before Li Zhen could say anything, Wang Zongren stood up and shouted loudly at the Iron Armored Army, "The whole army is moving urgently and will rush to the border Dingzhou within five days. Anyone who delays the military plane will be executed!" "

Seeing Wang Zongren's appearance, the minister couldn't help but curled his lips and said, "How can your virtues be as majestic as the King of Shu? If it had been left in the past, you would have definitely found a good job after entering the palace."

Wang Zongren listened to the sarcasm of the surrender and didn't pay attention. He was a shameless person and said with a smile, "Thank you for the gift. When the day comes when the queen enters the palace, I will go back to serve you."

Jiangchen was also stunned for a moment, and then he realized that Wang Zongren was asking her to marry Li Zhen. Jiangchen seemed to have recalled something, his earlobes were slightly red, and he glanced at Wang Zongren with his scarlet eyes, and said fiercely,

"Don't worry, if you enter the palace, the first thing I will do is to sew your mouth!"

Wang Zongren heard the ambiguity in Jiang Chen's tone and glanced at Jiang Chen and Li Zhen with strange eyes. Sure enough, there was something wrong.

"Then, I would like to congratulate you on your early success."

Jiangchen raised his jade hand, and a lancet appeared between his slender fingers. It seemed that he was ready to sew up the open mouth now.

……

Ji Ruxue had just put away her jade plate when footsteps came from behind her. Before she could turn around, she heard scolding.
"Whose maid are you? Why are you so unruly? You came here. Didn't you know this is a restricted area?"

Ji Ruxue's eyes changed, as if she had discovered something extraordinary. She quickly lowered her head and admitted her mistake very shamelessly.
"This slave is the personal maid of Princess Zengcheng. The princess is discussing matters with Mr. Zuo Xiang. This slave entered the palace for the first time. Then she got lost and could not find her way back."

Hearing Ji Ruxue's words, the manager suppressed his anger. Princess Zengcheng's personal maid was, to put it mildly, her maid.

He might still be his master in the future, but he was not something that a manager could reprimand. This manager changed his face in an instant and was no longer as condescending and domineering as before.

Instead, she said with a flattering face, "It turns out that she is the princess's maid. I guess it is her first time entering the palace and she is not familiar with her.

Please pay attention to this young lady, this is a forbidden area of ​​the palace, and outsiders are not allowed to enter or exit at will. "

Ji Ruxue immediately became interested when she heard this. This person was an old man in the palace, not someone from the Miao border. Ji Ruxue went down the slope and walked through the donkey tunnel.
"This is my first time here. If my father-in-law is free, could you take me around the palace and give you a few pointers?
Moreover, this place is unfamiliar to me, and the rules in my hometown are different. If I don’t understand the rules in the future, I will cause trouble for the princess and my father-in-law. "

After Ji Ruxue finished speaking, she took out a small grain of silver from her pocket. When the eunuch in charge saw this scene, he started to think crazy, thinking that this was probably the princess who arranged for this little maid to explore the way.

So he readily agreed to Ji Ruxue's request, and at the same time accepted the small piece of silver in Ji Ruxue's hand without leaving a trace, still pushing it away.

"What are you talking about? From now on, the princess will be our mistress. This little thing is of no use... [my surname is Li], will you please help me, Miss Li?"

After hearing that the other party's surname was Li, he thought of Princess Zengcheng's surname. The eunuch chief increasingly felt that Ji Ruxue was the kind of dowry maid who was given a shape and grew up with Princess Zengcheng.

The general manager did not dare to neglect Ji Ruxue anymore. He bowed his waist and led Ji Ruxue around with a smile, and explained the taboos here clearly.

In this way, Ji Ruxue used her superb acting skills to understand the terrain of Nanzhao Palace clearly. By the time she returned to the palace where Qianwu was, the conversation between the uncle and nephew had ended.

Then there was the task of waiting for Qian Wu to change clothes and take a bath. Those Gu masters from Ten Thousand Poison Cave would definitely not do such rough work, so it ended up falling on Ji Ruxue.

While the two were busy, they began to exchange the information they obtained.
"That Liu Tai came to me just now. He didn't know about Chi Li's arrest of us. He also suspected that Chi Li and I had reached some kind of deal secretly."

Listening to Qianwu's words, Ji Ruxue kept moving her hands, changing Qianwu's clothes, and told Qianwu her information in a thought.

"I just went out and was taken as your dowry maid by a chief eunuch. He took me around the palace several times.

I took note of the topography of the palace. There are many places that are forbidden and no one is allowed to enter. "

Qianwu moved his steps lightly, and his slender white jade legs stepped into the barrel. His body like mutton-fat jade quickly sank under the water.

"Oh? Forbidden area. Let me guess if the so-called forbidden area only appeared after Chi Li came."

Ji Ruxue sprinkled flower petals into the barrel and used soap locust to make bubbles for Qianwu. The two of them looked flawless.

"You guessed it right, it's a forbidden area that only appeared after Chi Li came. After the night is quiet, I will go explore the way."

"crash"

Qianwu's white tender catkins poked out from under the water and suddenly grabbed Ji Ruxue's wrist. Her beautiful deer eyes stared at Ji Ruxue's eyes. The meaning was very obvious. She did not agree with this matter. .

Ji Ruxue put her hand on Qianwu's back, her eyes unwavering, and slowly took off Qianwu's hand and stuffed it back into the water.

The two began to communicate normally, with sweet words from friends, and the laughter that sounded like silver bells dispelled the doubts of the outside world.

……

Imperial Palace, Chengming Palace
Chi Li did not shy away from anything. He sat on the dragon chair with a golden sword, and below him were Jiu Bu, Hua Batzi, Guitou Yao and You Chuan.

After listening to their report, Chi Li became furious. This was his closest to perfect plan. An inescapable conspiracy forced them to divide into two groups, and then all three groups came out to catch them all.

Chi Li guessed that the opponent's strength might exceed their imagination, so he sent his elite troops and Nanzhao's army.

Chili has already done it. It would be good if those who go this time can return to those three achievements. As long as they can be captured, it will be worth the death of many people!

But things went counterproductive. Even though Chi Li had arranged everything, the gap in strength was still difficult to smooth out with numbers.

After all, Chi Li is the only one who can fight, and the remaining old troops, including Hua Batzi and Guitou Yao, can only hold down a few people.

Chi Li looked at You Chuan. You Chuan's strength could be used. If you use the Tantric quick method on him, it will only be stronger, but Chi Li does not dare to use him.

Chi Li came back to his senses, looked down at You Chuan and asked, "Did that princess cause any trouble?"

"Princess Zengcheng did not leave the palace. During the period, the left minister of the Southern Han Dynasty went there. The two discussed for a long time about the stepfather's arrest of the assassin..."

Listening to You Chuan's words, Chi Li also put aside his doubts about Princess Zengcheng. This news did not come from the two of them.

But from what You Chuan meant, it seemed that the princess knew about Li Xingyun and his group's infiltration. Sure enough, people in the Tian family didn't have a fuel-efficient lamp, and they never made all-or-nothing decisions. Is it instinct to make bets left and right?

A Gu Master quickly ran in from outside, quickly knelt down in front of Chi Li, his eyes looked at him with crazy admiration for Chi Li.

"Reporting to the Great Imperial Master, Jianchuan Jiedu and Huichuan Governor discovered Shu's spies. After our Gu Master's exploration, they discovered the advancing Shu army.

After comparing the Gu Master with the portrait, it was determined that the visitor was Wang Zongren, King of Shu. "

Chi Li was also stunned. The Shu Kingdom had shrunk in the past six months. He also thought that Wang Zongren was dead, but now it seems that Wang Zongren is not dead?

How could he not die?It turned out that he saw that annoying guy being chopped in half with his own eyes.
