I, the ninth grade county magistrate, scare the empress to tears at the beginning!

Jiang Qingli once again placed the long sword in her hand on Ji Xinyue's shoulder. Qi and blood surged all over her body, her eyes were cold, and the majestic spiritual energy gathered on the sword body. There was no doubt that when the sword fell, Ji Xinyue Xin Yue is absolutely irresistible.

Murong Jiu looked flustered and tried to dissuade her again: "Qingli, you have to calm down!"

"Well, it seems that you didn't listen to a word of what we just said." Tantai Xi activated his sword skills, ready to take action at any time, "Your mother Xiao Guifei was forced to death by Su Quan after all. Even if you want revenge, you You should also find Su Quan. My husband will go to the underworld and hunt down Su Quan. He will avenge your mother."

There was an ambiguous relationship between Lu Yuan and Ji Xinyue. Once Jiang Qingli was impulsive and killed Ji Xinyue, Jiang Linglong would definitely take revenge and avenge her mother. Once this happens, Lu Yuan will be caught in the middle and be in a dilemma.

The more dangerous situation is that if Lu Yuan cannot come back within a short period of time and Jiang Qingli kills Ji Xinyue, there will be a possibility that Cangyun County will be besieged by Zhou's army. At that time, Cangyun County and Jiang Linglong will stage a drama of killing each other. The people of the world will suffer, and the Chu, Yue and other countries will be happy.

"Lu Yuan, is he missing?" Ji Xinyue didn't care at all about the sword on his neck. Instead, he looked at Tantai Xi anxiously and asked with a trembling voice: "Underworld? Can he come back?" Although Ji Xinyue She was not a martial artist, but she had also heard of the legends of the underworld. According to legend, no living person could enter that place. If you go in, you will never come back. I felt very anxious.

These days, she only knew that Lu Yuan was missing, but no one told her where exactly Lu Yuan went. At this time, after learning about this from Tantai Xi, Ji Xinyue subconsciously cared about Lu Yuan's safety, so much so that she cut a thin wound on her white neck with Jiang Qingli's sword, but she didn't care at all. Don't care.

"Husband, I'm afraid this time will be very bad. We all need to be mentally prepared." Tantai Xi said this with a tired voice. She naturally has full confidence in Lu Yuan, but that is the underworld. Even if Lu Yuan can come back, it will probably take at least decades or even hundreds of years. Lu Yuan may not die there, but the road back is full of difficulties and obstacles.

She asked Ji Xinyue to be mentally prepared, why not let Murong Jiu and Jiang Qingli be mentally prepared. For more than ten days, the eight wives lived like years, and each of them cried bitterly late at night, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. If it took decades or hundreds of years, she really didn't know how to get through it. What she said would make everyone feel sad in advance, at least better than gradually becoming desperate and painful during the long wait.

Jiang Qingli was even more distraught at this time. On one hand, the whereabouts of her beloved man was unknown, and on the other hand, she received the tragic news that her mother had been killed. Under the double blow, tears were already shining in her eyes.

"Where is my mother's body?" Finally, Jiang Qingli put away the sword in her hand again. Because she realized that Ji Xinyue had just heard the news that Lu Yuan had gone to the underworld, and she didn't care about her own life or death. She didn't know how to start for a while.

"Qingli, we will take you there." Murong Jiu said.

Jiang Qingli, led by Murong Jiu and Tantai Xi, went to the ice cellar to see the body of Concubine Xiao. Ji Xinyue's eyes were gloomy, and she was weakly holding on to the pillar next to her. Her face was pale, and cold sweat was dripping from her forehead. She suddenly opened her mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood. "Your Majesty!" The maid next to Ji Xinyue was shocked when she saw this scene. She went up to help Ji Xinyue, only to feel that Ji Xinyue's arms were unusually cold, "Mother, Master Lu will definitely come back safely."

Ji Xinyue has never been truly happy since she came to Cangyun County. Especially after talking to Lu Yuan that night, she became extremely indifferent. Later, when Lu Yuan left Cangyun County, Ji Xinyue didn't even go to see him off. That day, she hid in her small yard admiring flowers and didn't go out the whole day.

During the period after Lu Yuan left, Ji Xinyue wrote many letters to Lu Yuan, but the last one was not sent out. Those letters piled up in her study until recently, when she heard that Jiang Linglong met Lu Yuan in Youzhou, so she burned all the letters late at night and turned them into ashes. The maid saw all this.

Although Ji Xinyue is usually tight-lipped and deliberately indifferent to Lu Yuan's news, whenever she takes the initiative to talk about Lu Yuan, the embroidery in Ji Xinyue's hand, or the calligraphy hand, It would always slow down unconsciously, and then return to the normal speed after she finished speaking. The maid gradually guessed the truth. As everyone had heard, there was an unexplainable relationship between Ji Xinyue and Lu Yuan. In fact, she cared about Lu Yuan very much.

At this time, Ji Xinyue's reaction was a revelation of true feelings. Compared to the three ladies, Ji Xinyue seemed...more worried about Lu Yuan. This mouthful of essence and blood consumes Ji Xinyue's life.

In the underground ice cellar, it was bone-chilling and chilly. The three of them had to use their body-protecting Qi to defend themselves against the cold air. The further they walked towards the center, the fiercer the cold air became, the more intense and overbearing it was. In a short while, drops of water formed on the surfaces of the three of them.

Murong Jiu and Tantai Xi came with Lu Yuan last time. At that time, Lu Yuan came to protect them, so they didn't feel anything at all. Without Lu Yuan, they really felt the extreme cold.

The extreme cold comes from the middle of the cave, where a large amount of ice accumulates, including century-old ice and thousand-year ice, and the one in the middle is a thousand-year-old ice marrow stone. Ice marrow stone is a treasure with a better cooling effect than ice. It is condensed from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. The best ice marrow stone can extinguish underground magma, which shows how cold it is.

A small piece of ice marrow stone is worth a large piece of ten-thousand-year-old ice, so it is extremely precious. In the current Great Zhou Dynasty, it can be said that it is priceless but not marketable. When Ji Xinyue heard that there was such a large ice marrow stone here, she was amazed at that time. She once told Murong Jiu and Tantai Xi that there was a palm-sized ice marrow stone in the Imperial Palace of the Zhou Dynasty, which was the hottest place every year. In the summer, the entire palace relied on ice marrow to cool down.

In the ice cellar, there is a large piece of thousand-year-old ice marrow stone, which is enough for a person to lie completely inside. This is Lu Yuan's creation, just to preserve the body of Concubine Xiao intact.

Jiang Qingli walked to the body, looked at the body of Concubine Xiao lying inside, and suddenly shed tears of excitement. Her mother's body was so well preserved! (End of chapter)
