Chapter 56 Did You Ask About My Knife?
Jiang Fuguang looked over the shoulder of the man in black and saw Ji Ruxuan behind him.

He lowered his head, his black hair was messily draped over his shoulders, under the cover of twilight, she couldn't see Ji Ruxuan's appearance clearly, she could only vaguely see his ruthless and decisive outline, sucking the "ho ho ho" in his throat, Like pulling a bellows, his breathing was turbid and heavy, and his body was exhausted to the extreme, all supported by a will.

Suddenly!

Jiang Fuguang's pupils contracted sharply, and he shouted in panic, "Get out of here..."

"puff--"

There was another muffled sound of a sharp weapon piercing into flesh and blood. In order to turn around to save her, Ji Ruxuan didn't dodge. He tried his best to receive a heavy blow, and stabbed the blade in his hand into the chest of the man in black.

Her prediction failed.

"Ji Ruxuan..." Jiang Fuguang's eyes darkened, and as her consciousness drifted away, the only thought in her mind was:
How is Ji Ruxuan?

Is he okay?
In the darkness, someone walked towards her stepping on dead branches and rotten leaves.

……

Wei Twelve walked the way back from the eldest princess, and he saw Jiang Ningjia's guards and several guards guarding the hunting ground killing wild wolves.

Wei Twelve immediately got off his horse and helped the guards kill the wild wolf: "Did you see the eldest princess passing by here?"

"No," the guard shook his head, "Just now, Princess Ning Yu fell off her horse and made a lot of noise. I was eager to wait for the protector, and went to check the situation. When I returned, I found Princess Ning Jia's guard was confronting the wild wolf. I didn't see the eldest princess, nor did I find anyone nearby."

This place is already close to the inner circle of the hunting ground. The terrain in the mountains is complicated and the danger is greater. Most people will not go deep.

Jiang Ningjia was stunned for a while, no wonder she called for help just now, but no guards came to rescue her. It turned out that something happened to Jiang Ningyu.

With Jiang Ningyu's bluffing temper, there must have been a lot of commotion and the guards were attracted to him.

There was already the inner circle of the hunting ground. The guards not only wanted to check Jiang Ningyu's situation, but also sent people to the inner circle to check the movements of large beasts. The defense must be empty.

At this time, half an hour has passed since drumming and hunting.

Those who went hunting returned one by one.

The arena is full of prey.

The camp was buzzing.

Wei Twelve handed Princess Ningjia over to the guards of the hunting ground, and returned to the camp as quickly as possible, but did not find the eldest princess. Suddenly, a bad premonition arose in his heart, and he hurried to see Zhang Dequan.

When Zhang Dequan heard that it was the guards next to the eldest princess who were looking for her, he felt a 'thump' in his heart. There must be something wrong with the eldest princess. I was also startled, and ran out together.

When he saw Wei Twelve covered in blood, Zhang Dequan was so frightened that his calves were trembling, and he almost passed out on the spot.

When Zhang De heard the news of the eldest princess's disappearance, Zhang De's whole body tilted, and he was almost supported by Xiao Dezi.

It is said that a companion is like a tiger, godfather has never seen any kind of storm in his life, and now he is terrified by the disappearance of the eldest princess.

"Eldest Princess," Zhang Dequan stabilized his body, with a trembling voice, "Quick, come with our family to see His Majesty."

At this time, the torches had already been lit on the martial arts arena, and the surroundings were brightly lit. Emperor Nanxing was standing on the high platform with the civil and military ministers, watching the people who went out to hunt and returned with their prey.

"The third prince hunted an adult female deer."

"Elder Dongfang hunted a firefox, and it was still alive."

"Second Master Gu hunted a roe deer, which is not small."

"..."

Emperor Nanxing listened for a while, looked at the gloomy sky, and asked aloud: "What time is it?"

After Dongfang Yu returned from hunting, he drove by His Majesty's side: "Fang arrives at Youshi (17 o'clock)."

Emperor Nanxing looked far into the distance, and there were rolling mountains in the distance, with thick fog covering the top of the mountain, "It seems that there will be a heavy rain at night."

Tai Shi Ling, who calculated that there would be no rain in the near future, hurriedly stepped forward to plead guilty: "It is my calculation that is wrong."

"Unpredictable things happen in the sky." Emperor Nanxing was not angry, but rather sighed, "The might of the sky is so brilliant that it cannot be achieved by manpower."

Tai Shiling breathed a sigh of relief: "Your Majesty is wise."

"Spring rain is as precious as oil." Emperor Nanxing was in a good mood, smiling directly into his eyes, "Now it's the spring plowing season. With this rain, the crops in the first half of this year are almost guaranteed to be harvested. The rain is good!"

All civil and military officials echoed.

Right now!

Zhang Dequan hurried in and whispered a few words in Emperor Nanxing's ear.

The smile on the emperor's face froze suddenly, and the thin jade cup in his hand fell to the ground with a "clang" and shattered into pieces, the sound echoed in the tent.

All civil and military officials were silent like cicadas.

There was no sound in the arena!

Cheng Engong's hand hidden in his sleeve trembled uncontrollably, and suddenly clenched into a fist.

The plan was successful.

He didn't want to take the risk and assassinate Jiang Fuguang under His Majesty's noses, but the consequences of assassinating the Princess Protector were too serious, and he couldn't find any other sure chance.

There is not much time left for Duke Cheng'en's mansion, and he can't wait. Let Jiang Fuguang die accidentally during the spring search, which is the most appropriate method at present.

Emperor Nanxing's head was dizzy, and he stabilized his figure by supporting the desk with both hands: "Where is General Wei?"

"Habayashi Wei, Shi Biao, here." General Wei Shi Biao, who was sitting in the banquet, immediately walked into the hall, knelt on one knee, and answered with cupped hands.

General Wei is the third-rank rank, and his status is only lower than that of hussars and chariots. He assumes the role of guard, so he is called "Guard".

"Pass down my will," Emperor Nanxing stared at him closely, "Immediately, seal off the entire hunting ground, no one is allowed to enter or leave, and those who violate the order will be arrested immediately, regardless of life or death."

The people in the field were all terrified and horrified.

What happened?

Why is His Majesty so angry?
"Investigate all suspicious-looking people in the camp. I would rather kill a hundred by mistake than let one go." Emperor Nanxing's heavy gaze turned into a real killing intent, rolling down, "If there are any omissions, please come and see them."

Shi Biao was terrified: "My minister, take orders."

"Infantry Lieutenant, where are you?"

"Chen, Infantry Captain He Chaoyun is here."

"Captain Tunqi..."

"..."

"Captain Shesheng..."

"..."

Emperor Nanxing ordered the five captains one after another: "The eldest princess disappeared in the hunting ground. I order you to immediately lead the troops to search the entire hunting ground. You must find the eldest princess safely."

Each school has 500 soldiers, and the five major captains have a total of [-] people.

The civil and military officials gasped, but no one dared to question it.

Qi Linfeng's eyes turned red, he strode into the hall, knelt down on one knee, and begged: "Your Majesty, please Yunchen and the five schools go to search for the eldest princess together."

"Yun! The soldiers of the five schools are all under your command. Please make sure to find the eldest princess. You are the only one I can trust." Emperor Nanxing paused, his voice hoarse, "Please."

The three heavy words carry a father's real concern for his daughter.
