Tianshui River is very long, running through the entire Canglang Mountain Range. Of course, the place Su Zhilan is pointing to cannot be the end of the south, it should be the end of the encirclement.
Zhuo Mufeng disappeared invisibly, taking advantage of the surrounding terrain to blend perfectly into the night. Like a small fish, he found a gap in the myriad of connections and made his way to the destination.
But he didn't know Su Zhilan's specific location, so he hid on the top of a big tree, restrained the fluctuations in his body, and then used all his strength to activate the Dao Demon Seed.
Soon after, he was more than 600 meters to the left, and he sensed Su Zhilan. Zhuo Mufeng's heart was beating wildly, but he did not act impulsively, but continued to sense his surroundings in order to grasp more of the situation.
In the dark forest, there was a high slope with a bonfire on it. Sitting beside the bonfire was a man and a woman. Surprisingly, it was Su Zhilan and the Emperor of Northern Qi!
The difference was that Su Zhilan was looking around anxiously, as if waiting for someone. While the Northern Qi Emperor looked upright with a straight back, his eyes were actually dull and his expression was sluggish.
Since the Emperor of Northern Qi had previously issued an order to be alone with his beloved concubine, the guards retreated a hundred meters away and formed a circle of iron barrels. Not even a fly, not to mention people, could fly in.
Zhuo Mufeng quickly noticed everything, feeling both relieved and surprised.
She was relieved because Su Zhilan called the Emperor of Northern Qi, so no wonder she could appear here. She was confused because, since she was with the Emperor of Northern Qi, what was the use of calling her here?
Apart from anything else, the circle of iron barrels surrounding the two of them was not something that Zhuo Mufeng could break through, and I'm afraid even Leqian couldn't.
In the corner of the circle of iron barrels, stood a pretty maid, it was Xiao Taoye. Because of her status, the guards around her were very polite to Xiao Taoye, but little did she know that Xiao Taoye was going crazy with anxiety.
The note in Zhuo Mufeng's tent was what she tried to send. In fact, she was very opposed to the empress having a private meeting with Zhuo Mufeng, but she couldn't resist the empress' strong will, so she had no choice but to comply.
However, from Xiao Taoye's point of view, even if Zhuo Mufeng saw the note, let alone whether that guy had enough courage to take the risk, even if he did, he wouldn't be able to come over at all.
If she hadn't accompanied him here, she wouldn't have been able to imagine that the defense at the hunting ceremony venue was so tight. With Zhuo Mufeng's martial arts, even ten of them couldn't break through!
"How could the empress fall in love with that kind of person? Humph!" Xiao Taoye looked down on Zhuo Mufeng very much. She felt that he was just a young man who only wanted to be a womanizer because of his ability. He wished he could disappoint the empress.
.
She stood quietly, but her eyes were actually looking around. But before she knew it, a figure had quietly approached here.
Although there were too many uncertainties in his heart, Zhuo Mufeng decided to take a risk after thinking for a long time. He did not deny that he was half-hearted, but he was sincere to every woman, and selfishly hoped that women would be sincere to him.
During this reunion, to be honest, Zhuo Mufeng was shaken as to whether Su Zhilan still loved him wholeheartedly, so he needed an answer.
Sensing the fluctuation of the little peach leaves, Zhuo Mufeng came in this direction.
He observed for a long time, combined with the terrain and the people nearby, but still couldn't think of a way to break through, so he focused on Xiao Taoye. He happened to notice Xiao Taoye's eyes flickering, looking around from time to time, and a bold idea came to his mind.
But he didn't know if Xiao Taoye would betray him, so he hesitated again.
After thinking about it again and again, she thought that if the other party dared to scream, she would run away immediately. She was still sure to leave. If there was no evidence to prove her death, she would not be able to frame her. She could also test Su Zhilan's attitude.
Taking a deep breath, Zhuo Mufeng became bolder. When Xiao Taoye was secretly observing again, he slightly poked his head out, and used the fluctuations of Tao Demon Seed to attack the opponent's heart, allowing Xiao Taoye to discover him immediately.
Sure enough, Xiao Taoye suddenly felt something in her heart for some unknown reason, and then she saw a pair of eyes hidden behind Maolin, and the other person winked at her.
She immediately recognized that it was Zhuo Mufeng, with a look of disbelief on her face. She was not only shocked that the other party had the means to come here, but even more shocked that the other party dared to go into danger alone with just a piece of paper, just to not let him go.
Su Zhilan was disappointed.
At this moment, Xiao Taoye was deeply shocked, and Su Zhilan's previous words came to mind.
"I want to see if he is a man worthy of my trust. Xiao Taoye, I hope he is not, because then he does not have to take risks, but I can't help but hope that he is!"
Thinking of the worried and complicated smile on the empress's face, Xiao Taoye's nose felt sour, and she felt an urge to cry, and she no longer disliked Zhuo Mufeng.
Her reaction was quick. She blinked her sour eyes into the darkness, then said a few words to the guards, then turned and walked up the slope. For fear of attracting attention, she had to walk slowly.
.
Su Zhilan, who was sitting on a high slope, was suffering from inner suffering. Her pretty face was changing in the firelight. She raised her head again and suddenly saw Little Tao Ye walking towards her. The expression on her face was unspeakable and her heartstrings were being plucked fiercely.
When he moved a little, his blood stopped.
Xiao Taoye walked closer, glanced at the Northern Qi Emperor first to make sure that the latter was under control, and then nodded heavily to Su Zhilan.
Su Zhilan laughed, smiled, covered her mouth with her hands, two lines of pearl-like tears fell from her eyes, and she almost burst into tears due to excitement.
Xiao Taoye had been by her side and felt the same way. Then she quickly came closer and whispered: "My dear, don't cry yet. People are still waiting outside."
After finishing speaking, Xiao Taoye found that she was actually speaking for that guy. Xiao Taoye found it incredible.
Su Zhilan woke up with a start, quickly wiped her tears with a fragrant handkerchief, and asked Xiao Taoye if she looked abnormal. After getting a negative answer, she quickly stood up, ignored the Emperor of Northern Qi, and walked out with Xiao Taoye's support.
When the guards on the perimeter saw the two women, they all showed strange expressions. Seeing that the two women were still moving forward, they quickly stretched out their hands to stop them, bowed their heads and said respectfully: "My Lady, please don't leave this place without permission, otherwise you may be in danger."
Su Zhilan didn't say anything, and Xiao Taoye beside her shouted angrily: "Get out of the way, I want to go out, do I still need your approval?"
The leading guard looked embarrassed: "My Majesty, it's not that my subordinates have overstepped their authority, it's just that I'm a rich woman. If there is the slightest mistake, I'm afraid my subordinates will be blamed. I hope you can forgive me."
Xiao Taoye's face turned red: "My queen has something private to do, will you let her or not?" Su Zhilan lowered her head, and two clouds of red clouds rose from the white jade basin.
The guards were not fools, let alone trying to break their heads. They would not have thought that Su Zhilan would be so bold as to have a private meeting with her lover. They all thought that she was going to pay tribute, so it was not convenient for her to say so clearly.
Seeing her shy look, many of the guards were stunned on the spot and hurriedly looked away, secretly calling her a fairy.
The leading guard only felt his scalp numb, because this topic was too sensitive and had crossed the line a little bit. Once this enchantress slapped him with a teasing label, he would wait for his death tomorrow, so he gritted his teeth and said: "I don't know, Your Majesty...
…”
Xiao Taoye shouted: "Do you still need to go and verify with Your Majesty about your Majesty's affairs? Your Majesty personally approved this. You don't believe it, right? OK, OK, go. Go and ask Your Majesty now!"
The leading guard secretly complained. He was not smart anymore. I heard that it was His Majesty's order. Who would dare to lie about such a thing? And when he saw Xiao Taoye shouting louder and louder, he should not alert His Majesty then, in case His Majesty wanted to please the beauty.
If he had surgery, wouldn't he die unjustly?
Thinking of this, the leading guard hurriedly said: "I don't dare. Since it is His Majesty's command, I must obey it." He was also very smart. He insisted first that it was the Holy One's command, so that he could shirk responsibility when the time came.
As he spoke, he had already moved aside, and the other guards did not dare to stop him and pushed him away one after another.
Xiao Taoye supported Su Zhilan and walked away proudly, leaving only a cloud of fragrant wind floating in the night, attracting the guards' imagination.
Zhuo Mufeng, who was hiding in the dark and observing everything, was even more confused. The Dao Demon Seed could only detect fluctuations, but could not detect a person's state. The fluctuations of the Northern Qi Emperor were normal, so Zhuo Mufeng did not know that the Northern Qi Emperor had already
was controlled.
With doubts, he moved quietly and followed the two women.
The two girls were of high status, so the guards did not dare to follow them. In addition, Su Zhilan knew how to set up defenses, so she quickly took Xiao Taoye to a very secluded place.
Xiao Taoye walked to the outside and looked eagerly. She didn't know whether Zhuo Mufeng could successfully catch up under that situation.
Until she brushed, a black shadow appeared beside her like a ghost, and before she screamed, it clicked on her acupuncture points in advance, just like the last time they met in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
Under the moonlight, the black shadow had a handsome face, and it was not Zhuo Mufeng. He smiled at Xiao Taoye, stretched out his hand to untie her acupuncture points, and walked towards Su Zhilan while the latter rolled her eyes.
A layer of internal energy centered on Zhuo Mufeng quickly enveloped the space between him and the two women, preventing any movement here from spreading.
Su Zhilan saw Zhuo Mufeng walking towards him. She was obviously filled with love in her heart and almost couldn't help herself, but she still smiled sweetly on her face and said: "Little thief, you are so majestic. I haven't seen you for half a year, and all three beauties in the world have been seduced by you.
"I don't know whether this is a compliment or a mockery.
Zhuo Mufeng stopped and explained: "It's all just rumors."
Su Zhilan: "Time flies so fast. You are second only to Tu Juecheng as a peerless genius praised by everyone in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and Zhilan is already the princess of a country."
This woman invited herself here just to talk about this?
It's not that Zhuo Mufeng didn't see through her ups and downs, but if the other party wanted to pretend, he would play with her, so he asked: "Are you satisfied with your current life?"
Su Zhilan smiled softly: "This question is really stupid, of course I am satisfied! Below a few people, above ten thousand people, this kind of life is not something ordinary people can imagine. Zhilan lives very happily every day."
What are you talking about? Little Taoye was dumbfounded.
