Temple of Forgiveness.

Ji Wujue was wearing thin clothes and was writing in front of the desk. His long dark hair was shawl, adding a touch of softness to his tough figure.

Cao Zhongquan was helping him grind the ink, with a bit of worry on his face.

It is not just once or twice that the Emperor wakes up in the middle of the night. Ever since the Empress left for Niu County, the Emperor has not even had a full night's sleep. If this continues, sooner or later something will happen to the dragon's body.

Cao Zhongquan thought about waiting for Lu Yunluo to return to the palace and asking his apprentice Xiao Lizi to pretend to spill the beans in front of the empress. After all, only the empress' words could make the emperor listen.

Moreover, the Queen's medical skills are superb, so maybe she can help cure the Emperor's nightmare problem.

"Your Majesty, there is urgent information from the northern camp."

Outside, a eunuch on night duty came to report.

Ji Wujue frowned slightly. The camp in the north was where Su Moran and his army were stationed. Since the last time they captured Ziyou City, the Beicang Kingdom had become much more honest. Could it be that the restlessness has arisen again during this period?

Ji Wujue put down his pen and asked the eunuch outside the door to bring in the person who sent the information.

After a while, Ji Wujue looked at the information in his hand with a cold expression.

The intelligence said that the counselor Kong Yue was a spy lurking in the camp. He not only assassinated General Zhang Leizhang, but also stole the black fire in the camp. According to Su Moran's guess, this Kong Yue was very good.

You may have mastered the recipe based on the black fire in your hand!

The man in gray clothes holding a black cattail leaf fan appeared in Ji Wujue's mind. He darkened his eyes and asked people to immediately announce Xun Feng to the palace.

"Has anyone in Niu County found out who kidnapped Emperor Xi Qing?"

Ji Wujue asked.

You must know that there are not many people in the world who dare to kidnap Emperor Xi Qing. Even Helian Prison has to consider the consequences of doing so.

Xunfeng recounted the latest news he got there, "Feng Yinyin must not be that powerful to tie up Emperor Xi Qing, but the person behind her has not surfaced yet."

Ji Wujue narrowed his eyes, finally stood up and said, "Put yourself together and go to Niu County with me!"

If it was really Kong Yue who was behind this, I'm afraid Luo'er and the others would be in danger. After all, Kong Yue most likely has mastered the recipe for making black fire.

I hope he is overthinking all this!

…

A village on the outskirts of Niu County.

As soon as Changrong and Xi Qinghuang came out of the tunnel, they saw Pei Hua leading people to kill fiercely.

"Chang Rong, where has the imperial sister gone?"

Pei Hua asked anxiously.

"The master said, let us wait for her outside."

Chang Rong didn't know why Pei Hua was so anxious. According to the original plan, only when a signal was sent from inside would the outsiders attack. Obviously, the plan was not followed.

"Hurry up and escort Xi Qinghuang to a safe place. I'll go in and find her!"

Bei Ming flashed and wanted to go in, but realized that he was not familiar with the terrain. He glanced at Feng Yinyin, who was being escorted out by Chang Rong, and lifted her up with a long sword.

At this time, Feng Yinyin was already suffering from the pain of poison. When she saw the remnant of the long sword coming across again, she gasped and said, "I promised you to give me the antidote when I bring you out, you liars!"

"I'm afraid it's too late..."

One moment, Pei Hua kicked away a servant, and the next moment, he stared blankly at the signal flares shooting up in the distance.

As the signal flares bloomed in mid-air, earth-shaking sounds soon erupted in the house.

"It's explosives! Get down quickly!"
