Fengqing's harem

Chapter 60
"Chen and concubine retire."

Li Xiao had no choice but to leave unwillingly, and looked at Yan Xiezi with viciousness, his eyes were sharp, as if he wanted to stare at Yan Xiezi.

Yan Xiezi glanced at Li Xiao indifferently, her face was cold, she said that Xiezi would write down her accounts one by one, and one day, she would pay them back twice as much.

"Your Majesty, you scared the slaves to death, are you alright!" Just after leaving the gate of Renshou Palace, Chu'er greeted her anxiously, seeing Chu'er's sincere expression, Yan Xiezi couldn't help feeling warm, and said Chu'er showed a smile, and walked forward thoughtfully.

At this moment, people on the border of Mo Xi Kingdom were in a state of panic, and even the emperor's expedition could not appease their panic.

"Your Majesty, according to reports from the soldiers, all the soldiers who left for the battle with the Huangqi Kingdom disappeared in the woods in front of them and are nowhere to be found."

In the big tent, Mo Bieli sat on the teacher's chair, frowning tightly, with a serious face, listening to Fei Yan's words, his eyes were serious.

"Fei Yan, what's your opinion on this matter?"

"Returning to the emperor, this is the first time I've heard of such a strange thing. I'm stupid and don't know the reason for this." Fei Yan was also puzzled.

"If my guess is correct, there must be a formation in the forest, but the specific formation can only be known after entering."

"Your Majesty, are you saying..." As soon as Mo Bieli's words came out, Fei Yan suddenly realized, and looked at Mo Bieli in disbelief. He had only heard of that formation, which was said to be a kind of witchcraft. Now that it really appeared, he How can I not be surprised.

Seeing the comprehension in Fei Yan's expression, Mo Bieli knew that Fei Yan had also thought of it, and then he spoke again.

"Fei Yan, tomorrow night, you bring some reliable soldiers, and we go to learn about the formation."

"Your majesty, absolutely not, the body of the dragon is important, I will take the soldiers to find out the situation, the emperor just waits for the news." As a minister, how can he let Mo Bie leave to take risks!
Fei Yan's mind is naturally understood, but this kind of formation is not something Fei Yan can bear, even if it is him, he can't guarantee that he will be able to retreat completely.

"Chu'er, where is Zhang Jieyu's body?" Yan Xiezi asked Chu'er with a serious face just after returning to Qingcheng Palace.

"Mother, Zhang Jieyu's body was taken away by the Imperial Forest Army after you left." Chu'er was also a little dazed, since Yan Xiezi was taken away just now, she naturally didn't pay attention to these things in a panic.

"Oh? Then go and find out where Zhang Jieyu's body was taken."

"Yes."

After Chu'er left, Yan Xiezi began to think slowly, Cui Ling was undoubtedly a traitor, but how could she be told to tell the truth?And... from her words, it can be heard that something happened last night, but what exactly happened, she thought... Only Cui Ling knows, maybe even Li Xiao doesn't know what happened matter.

"Ah! Mistress, snake!" When Yan Xiezi was thinking, Chu'er's frightened voice sounded from outside the door. Yan Xiezi's first reaction was a little demon, but...if it was a little demon, how could Chu'er So scared?Yan Xiezi walked out quickly while thinking, and saw a green snake hopping across the door, but it was three times bigger than the little demon, no wonder Chu'er was so frightened.

The internal force was slowly mobilized, and Yan Xiezi was about to make a move, but saw the snake crawling slowly, showing a humble expression, looking at Yan Xiezi with resentment in his eyes, quite a coquettish look, Yan Xiezi He rolled his eyes, retracted his inner strength, and put down his hand, who is this snake if it's not a little demon? May I ask, besides the little demon, which snake can be so cheap?

"Your Majesty, what should I do? How about Chu'er go and call the Imperial Forest Army over?" Chu'er, who hadn't understood yet, was still nervous.

A certain snake on the ground gave Chu'er a hard look, and rubbed its still small snake head towards Yan Xiezi's thigh.

Only then did Chu'er come back to her senses slowly, and looked at that flattering snake in disbelief. Could it be that it grew so big after not seeing it for more than ten days?
"Your Majesty...it...is it a little demon?"

"Ah."

"Oh! Your Majesty, I have asked. Zhang Jieyu's body has been sent back to Tingyuan, where she lives." After being confirmed, Chu'er's nervousness immediately dissipated, and her dark face returned to normal.

"Well, come with me to have a look." After hearing this, Yan Xiezi said calmly.After finishing speaking, without waiting for Chu'er to respond, she walked out the door.

When Chu'er came to his senses, Yan Xiezi had already reached the gate of Qingcheng Palace, and hurriedly raised his legs to catch up.

On the ground... A certain little snake squirmed its limp body, and slowly followed Yan Xiezi's footsteps.

As soon as he walked out of the door, Yan Xiezi heard the rustling sound behind him, stopped, turned his head, and happened to see the little demon crawling hard, Yan Xiezi's eyes immediately turned cold, and stared at the little demon.

"Little demon, if you dare to catch up, you know the consequences." After speaking, he ignored the little snake and turned to leave.

Behind him, a certain little snake trembled, its big eyes were full of sorrow, but it didn't dare to take a step forward.

Tingyuan is located on the edge of the harem, and Yan Xiezi and Chu'er walked for a quarter of an hour before reaching it.

At the gate of the pavilion, there are two guards guarding the forest, presumably Li Xiao sent someone to guard here.

Seeing someone coming, the Yulin Army crossed the sword in his hand, blocking Yan Xiezi's way.

"The noble concubine has a life, and idlers are not allowed to enter."

"Bold, this is Mrs. Zhaoyi, how could she be an idler?" Before Yan Xiezi could say anything, Chu'er stood up first, raised her head, and said with a serious expression.

"We don't care about the concubine, we only know the order of the imperial concubine." One of the Imperial Forest Army, after hearing Yan Xiezi's identity, not only did not restrain himself, but looked at Yan Xiezi with disdain, and spoke without shame.

"Hey... you guys..."

Chu Er was about to have a fit, but was stopped silently by Yan Xiezi. The two people on the opposite side looked at Yan Xiezi's reaction, and the ridicule on their faces was even worse. They presumably saw Yan Xiezi as the one who dared not cause trouble After all, they belonged to Concubine Xiao, and few people in the harem would dare to mess with them.

When the two were proud, Yan Xiezi had already arrived.

At this moment, Yan Xiezi was expressionless, and looked at the two with cold eyes.

"I was ordered by the Empress Dowager to thoroughly investigate this matter. Could it be that Concubine Xiao is going to disobey the Empress Dowager's order?" If it were the past, she would have done it directly, but now is an extraordinary period, and it is not easy to be too public.

"This……"

"Oh, I don't know, but I hope Lady Zhaoyi will forgive me, please come in, Your Ladyship."

One of the imperial guards was still hesitating, but the other saw the way and hurriedly compromised.

With permission, Yan Xiezi walked in with a cold face, Chu'er behind him snorted and followed Yan Xiezi's footsteps.

Following the path, Yan Xiezi quickly found Zhang Jieyu's body. There was no one in the hut, only a table and the body covered with a white cloth.
