"That's nonsense. The commander of the imperial guards around the emperor has already followed the emperor to Wutai Mountain. All the ladies have followed him. You are such a big bitch. How dare you pretend to be an imperial guard and talk about your Majesty!"

The general shouted.

"Presumptuous!" E Ning shouted loudly, took out the secret decree given by the emperor before leaving, and said loudly: "This is the emperor's secret decree. If you don't believe it, you can send someone to E Mansion to ask someone to confirm that I am

It’s not E Ning, the fourth master of the E Mansion, but...if the empress is harmed in the slightest because of this, you are defying the decree and disrespecting her!"

Ening's words calmed the officers and soldiers guarding the city. Seeing the men in black rushing over, the officers and soldiers immediately rushed forward to fight with them.

"Ening, hurry up and get out of the city!" Wei Ning'er suddenly opened the carriage curtain and shouted.

"Empress, it's more dangerous outside the city!" Ening shook his head fiercely.

"Now everything in the capital is decided by Prince He. The palace has been arranged. The two corpses have long been said to be mine and Bingruo. Since we escaped, they will not let us

If we go back alive, even if we repel these men in black, the soldiers guarding the city will escort us back to the palace, but will Prince He allow me to go back safely?"

Ening was shocked when he heard this. He had not thought much about it just now, but now he suddenly realized that something was wrong. After all, he did not find a patrolling soldier along the way. This proved that He and the prince had already controlled them, no...he

As a prince and in charge of all affairs, all he had to do was find a reason to send these people away.

"Mother, they let us out of the city on purpose. It's even more dangerous to go out!" Ening had a flash of idea in his mind and shouted.

"Yes, it is better to kill us outside than in the capital to cover up the public's eyes, but... as long as we go back, we will definitely die, but we can still have a chance of survival if we escape from the capital!" Wei Ning'er said solemnly.

Ening was startled, but Hu Shijie took the riding whip from his hand, whipped it on the horse, and drove the carriage outside.

Just as Wei Ning'er had guessed, a dragnet had been set up outside waiting for them. However, En Ning and Hu Shijie were extremely skilled in martial arts and saved the day from danger many times. By noon, they had killed very few of the people who had caught up.

Just now, in order to avoid pursuit, Hu Shijie had to drive the carriage on the mountain road, not daring to take the official road. At this time, the carriage was already halfway up the mountain. The mountain road was rugged, and not far away was a steep and towering cliff.

The path leading to the cliff appeared in front of them.

Looking at the width of the road, a carriage cannot pass it, otherwise it will definitely fall into the cliff.

"Your Majesty, the mountain road ahead is too narrow. Please get off the carriage, please remember that beyond this mountain is a small town. You can definitely get there before dark!" Ening opened the carriage curtain and said respectfully.

"Okay!" Wei Ning'er was exhausted at this time, but for the sake of the child in her belly, she kept holding on and got off the carriage with Bing Ruo's help.

Ening and Hu Shijie unloaded the two horses and led them one after another.

The four of them walked forward for a short while and then heard the rapid sound of horse hooves.

"Oh no, they've sent more men to chase us!" Ening's face changed drastically. He wanted to ask Wei Ning'er to get on the horse and leave first, but when he looked at her towering belly, he gave up the idea. He changed his mind and said to

Hu Shijie next to him said

"You take my wife to go first. The place ahead is extremely narrow, and there is a cliff below. I will go there to guard and hold them back. You go up the mountain. The mountain is densely forested and overgrown with weeds. It will be extremely difficult for them to find you for a while."

.”

Wei Ning'er couldn't just watch Ening die. He went to stop the pursuers alone. The dangers could be imagined. After all, they had hardly rested since last night, especially since early this morning. They have been running for their lives.

, even though Ening was brave enough to be invincible, he was too tired and suffered a lot of minor injuries. The people chasing him were all armed with bows and arrows, and they would die unexpectedly if they were not careful.

"Mother, hurry up!" En Ning turned around and shouted, then ran forward. He had made up his mind to die and left a glimmer of hope for Wei Ning'er and the others.

Wei Ning'er opened her mouth and was about to say something, but Hu Shijie grabbed her and said in a deep voice: "Empress, leave quickly!"

Wei Ning'er staggered forward with the support of Hu Shijie and Bing Ruo. Not long after they had walked away, they heard the sound of swords clashing behind them.

Wei Ning'er knew that En Ning had used his life to win a glimmer of hope for her. Thinking of Lu Yunxi who was far away from the emperor, Wei Ning'er's heart suddenly throbbed.

Although Lu Yunxi never mentioned it to her, although she never revealed it, Wei Ning'er knew that Lu Yunxi only had E Ning in her heart from beginning to end. Otherwise, with her talents, it would not be difficult to win the emperor's favor, but she was so

She has been avoiding the emperor for many years, even if she was looked down upon and bullied because she was not favored, why would she let herself suffer if she didn't miss Ening so much.

The mountain road was rugged, and Wei Ning'er struggled even more with her big belly, but her desire to survive overcame everything. With the help of Hu Shijie and Bingruo, she slowly walked into the dense forest.

"Eunuch Hu, please take a rest first. I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on any longer!" Bingruo was frightened when she saw Wei Ning'er's face turned horribly pale, and even her palms broke out in cold sweat.

Hu Shijie was slightly startled, then picked up Wei Ning'er and said, "Ning'er, hold on!"

"No...Brother Wenhao, I can walk by myself!" Wei Ning'er said urgently, tightly pulling on his lapel.

At this time, everyone was exhausted. Although Hu Shijie was very powerful in martial arts, he was no better than them in killing enemies along the way. If he carried her and walked, he would only walk slower.

"Empress, just listen to Eunuch Hu!" Bingruo said urgently, holding her hand tightly.

Hu Shijie carried Wei Ning'er and burrowed into the dense forest until he found a very easy hiding place, then he put her down and gasped: "Ning'er, you hide here first, I'll go back and check on Ening."

"Brother Wenhao!" Wei Ning'er grabbed his hand: "Don't go, Ening is already in danger, and you will die if you go!"

"Ning'er, although I have always refused to admit it, I have indeed regarded him as a brother over the years. I can't just watch him die alone. What's more, those people who really killed Ening will probably have already gone to the mountains by now.

Come, I won't let them find you." When Hu Shijie said this, a ruthless look flashed in his eyes.

"Don't...don't go..." Wei Ning'er couldn't help but shed tears. How could she watch them die one by one to protect her.

Hu Shijie looked at Wei Ning'er and gently held her hand, with a soft look in his eyes: "Ning'er, Brother Wen Hao can't protect you from now on. You have to take care of yourself, whether you are in the palace or outside the palace, and live well!
