Wei Zi felt a chill on her back and all the hairs on her body stood up.
The little snow lion struggled desperately holding the branch, and the mother snow lion jumped over and tried to bite it.
"Oooh-ooh!"
The little snow lion scratched the tree trunk with its paws, and the mother snow lion followed it down.
Seeing this, the snow lion father couldn't stand it any longer and jumped down the tree after them.
Wei Zi is on the body of Snow Lion Dad.
One person and three lions fell to the ground in a state of disgrace.
Wei Zi gritted her teeth and whispered to Snow Lion's father: "Rush out."
The snow lion father ran away.
But the movements of the three people on the opposite side were much faster than them.
The two men controlled the little snow lion and its mother, while the woman reached out to grab Wei Zi.
Snow Lion's father was furious, and Wei Zi also took out his pistol and shot at the woman.
While hiding, the woman said loudly: "Princess Chen, I am here to take you back to Prince Yan's Mansion by order of the Queen!"
Wei Zi pointed the gun at her and said coldly: "What's the proof?"
The woman knelt on the ground and took out a letter: "This is the handwriting of the empress. Princess Chen, please take a look." She turned around and said to the two men: "Let go."
Wei Zi said coldly: "Open the letter paper."
From a distance of more than ten feet, she could clearly read the words on the paper.
The woman followed her words and said: "My surname is 'Zhou'. Like Su Nian, I am the one who serves the Queen. Last night, the Queen learned that something happened in Prince Yan's Mansion, and you left overnight. You thought you were here to get medicine, so I ordered you to do so."
I will wait here with my servants to escort you back to Prince Yan's Mansion."
Wei Zi recognized the Queen's handwriting and could tell that the seal on the paper was not a fake. After listening to Aunt Zhou's words, she already believed half of it, but——
"How to go back?" Wei Zi asked.
"There is a tunnel on the outskirts of the city that leads directly to the back hill where the imperial palace and Prince Yan's Mansion are located." Nanny Zhou returned.
"Why don't King Yan and King Chen know about this?" Wei Zi had never heard them mention this matter.
"This secret passage is a secret of the royal family. Only the emperor and empress know it. It will not be used unless it is absolutely necessary." Aunt Zhou did not hide it from her.
Wei Zi understood that this "last resort" usually refers to the fall of the palace, so only the emperor and the empress knew about it, which made sense.
"Since it is such a secret tunnel, why did the queen let me go?"
You know, she almost has the word "treason" engraved on her forehead now. If Feng Danyuan is really the queen of the Northern Xinjiang royal family and has the intention to destroy the Yun Kingdom, wouldn't it be tantamount to destroying her own destiny if the queen told her this secret passage?
The way out?
"The empress said, if I can't even trust you and Prince Chen, what else can be trusted in this world?"
Aunt Zhou's words sounded light and gentle, but to Wei Zi, they were no less than a heavy trust and promise.
After a moment of silence, she nodded: "Please, Aunt Zhou, lead the way."
I already believe it.
The most precious thing in this world is the word "trust". And the only thing that can repay "trust" is the same "trust".
If it's fake, it doesn't matter. If it's like this, what else is she hiding?
She has the ability to protect herself.
Aunt Zhou smiled slightly: "As the empress said, Princess Chen is a person who understands the general situation and has a pattern."
She stretched out her hand and said respectfully: "You go this way."
