Chapter 60
"Impossible. The warriors who accompanied me were all carefully selected by the sect. They are the best at running and surviving in the wild. The mountains outside Shengjing City are rolling and undulating. Once they enter the forest, they will be like goshawks soaring into the sky. When fish enter the sea, they disappear without a trace and are hard to find!"

Su Youzhen sneered and shook her head, absolutely not believing it.

"Whether it's the goshawk flying into the sky, or the fish in the urn, we will know the answer soon!
"During this time, Ms. Su has been wronged to live in the second small courtyard temporarily. When the time is right, I will find another place to arrange for Ms. Su to meet Princess Yunle."

Jiang Li smiled, noncommittal.

"Okay, I'll just believe you once, and if everything is verified, I will contact Master and convey your proposal to her old lady!
"But if you're lying to me, I will personally avenge the blood feud of three fellow disciples who died tragically under the knife!"

Su Youzhen nodded, she stood up and strode out of the room.

"Xuan Xin, you live in the second courtyard with Su Youzhen, help me keep an eye on it!"

Jiang Li thought for a while and said, "Also, go to Prince Yiyong's mansion now, try to contact Luo Ying, and say that I want to see Princess Yunle!"

"Brother Fifteen, don't worry, I'll go now!"

Jiang Xuanxin took the order, got up and left immediately.

"There are still less than two months before the martial arts, I must seize all the time to practice!"

Jiang Li turned around and walked into the practice room on the first floor of Lanhong Pavilion, jumped into the Hunyuan Baoding, soaked in the crocodile jiaojingyuan powder medicine liquid, and practiced the secret method of the twelve postures of Yijinxiejingjing, tempering the body and strengthening the body.

Three hours later, he finished practicing and walked out of Lanhong Pavilion. Jiang Xuanxin also returned from Yiyong Palace, bringing Luo Ying's reply.

Princess Yunle went to the Xishan Royal Hunting Ground with Emperor Jing two days ago, and it will take half a month at the earliest to return to Shengjing.

However, Luo Ying has already sent a letter to Bi Falcon, requesting Princess Yunle to intervene and suspend the disposal of the six Huaxiaodao warriors as leverage in future negotiations with Huaxiaodao.

When Jiang Li heard this, he could only wait patiently for Princess Yunle to return to the capital.

For the next ten days or so, Jiang Li went to the racecourse every morning to learn equestrianism from old man Tu, and spent the rest of the time practicing martial arts and cultivating qi.

Under the nourishment of all kinds of rare and secret medicines, precious pills, and medicinal wine, Jiang Li practiced hard every day, performed nine breaths and took breath several times to restore his physical state, and his daily practice was equivalent to the effect of more than ten days of ordinary people's practice.

The physical state is close to the middle stage of the Taiji state, not only the coordination and flexibility have been greatly improved, but also the bones and strength have also increased significantly.

According to this progress, there is great hope to advance to the fifth realm of the martial arts, the Juqing realm.

Although there is no external assistance in Qimai practice, Lingbao Tianzun's innate one-qi guidance technique is the supreme method of regulating breath, and the practice of refining Qi can make thousands of miles in a day.

More and more true qi was condensed in his meridians, and a lot of true qi was also accumulated in the Qi Sea dantian in his lower abdomen.

In terms of energy strength alone, he is not inferior to Taiji realm martial arts of the same realm.

However, the true power of the energy channels cannot be fully exerted before reaching the mad energy state where the true energy is released.

Mo Yunliang passed on his hundred-step magic fist, but its power is still limited.

But as long as he persists in his practice, he will even advance to the fifth realm one step ahead of Wumai.

"Brother Fifteen, General Luo Ying sent someone to send a letter, saying that it was Princess Yunle, Bi Falcon, who sent a message!"

On this day, Jiang Li was practicing the Jue Dao Three Styles in the courtyard, when Jiang Xuanxin walked in holding a small bamboo tube.

Jiang Li took the bamboo tube, broke the mud seal on it, and poured out a roll of paper, with only one line of small characters written on it: Jiang Li, the father is in the Xishan paddock to test the prince's martial arts and riding skills. The return date has not yet been determined. If you If you want to see me, you can come to the outside of the Xishan paddock, and Luo Ying will send me a letter.

"Emperor Jing is still in the Xishan paddock!"

Jiang Li closed the note, frowning slightly.

Da Zhou's conquest of Beimang is imminent, and Emperor Jing is not in Shengjing City to discuss military and state affairs with his ministers. How can he have leisure time, go hunting in the Xishan paddock, and spend nearly a month to test the prince's martial arts and riding skills?

Jiang Li felt a little strange, but now he was just a little bastard in Zhenwuhou's mansion, and he was unable to touch Emperor Jing's schemes and actions.

"Xuan Xin, pack up your things and inform Mo Yunliang that we will leave the city today and head to the Xishan paddock!"

Jiang Li put the Chilian Dragon Scale Sword back into its sheath, walked back to the room to get some necessary things, and then left Lanhong Pavilion with Jiang Xuanxin.

A moment later, the figure of Sanqi rode out from the side gate of Zhenwuhou Mansion, and galloped towards the outside of Shengjing City.

When they passed two intersections, two more people joined on horseback. It was Mo Yunliang, the master of Qi who had sent his daughter to the Jade Cauldron to practice, and Luo Ying, the Qilin guard Qianhu.

The five of them formed a team and came out from the west gate of Shengjing City, rushing like lightning to the Xishan paddock five hundred miles away.

The Lantern Festival has passed, and the weather is getting warmer. The snow on the roadside melts at noon, flows everywhere, and freezes into ice after sunset. On the contrary, it is more difficult to walk than when the blizzard is raging.

Although the horses that the five people rode were not such horses as Heisha and Zhuifeng, they were also one of the best horses out of a hundred.

However, after running for half a day, they traveled more than [-] li. The official road was icy and slippery, so they could only find a leeward mountain col and set up a tent for a rest.

After the sun rose on the second day and the snow and ice melted again, I got on my horse and continued on my way.

Finally arrived outside the Xishan paddock in the evening of the second day.

"Jiang Li, you don't have a token to enter the Xishan paddock, so you can only be wronged for one more night. I will enter the paddock first and inform Princess Yunle. See you at the entrance of the Xishan paddock at six o'clock tomorrow!"

The five of them were still more than a dozen miles away from the Xishan paddock, and they saw the light of the bonfire gathering into clouds on the Xishan from a distance, like a red flame dragon lying on the mountain.

Luo Ying pointed in one direction and said, "There is a long-abandoned mountain temple five miles away to shelter from the wind and cold."

He bowed his hands to bid farewell, and rode out on his horse, rushing towards the red flame dragon light belt lying across the west mountain, and quickly disappeared into the vast night.

Jiang Li and the others turned around and headed towards the mountain temple Luo Ying pointed out.

Although Xishan is only more than [-] miles away from Shengjing City, the temperature is much colder, and the snow on the mountain shows no sign of melting.

The horseshoes stepped on the snow, making a creaking sound, which spread far away. After half a stick of incense, the four of them turned around a mountain ridge, and by the moonlight, they could see a black silhouette lying 300 meters ahead. On the ground is the mountain temple that Luo Ying mentioned.

This mountain temple has been abandoned for an unknown period of time. The ruins and walls are barren and dilapidated. The cold wind blows through the broken walls, making a piercing whining sound, mixed with crisp bells and horses neighing.

"There are people in the temple!"

Mo Yunliang's eyes flashed, and he looked at the mountain temple in front of him, and he could see the faint light of fire coming out of it, and the faint smell of alcohol came with the wind.

"It's close to the Xishan paddock. There shouldn't be any random people showing up. Maybe it's the Jinwu Guards and Qilin Guards who are patrolling and guarding around. Let's go and have a look!"

Jiang Li nodded, and the four of them slowed down and approached the temple slowly to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.
