Chapter 746: Chiyun City, Shen Mansion

"Hmm?" Ye Feizhou's eyes drifted away for a moment, then returned to their original position. He then said to Ye Chulian, "Please help the Third Prince to find out which girl is willing to marry into the Prince Ren's Palace."

Before Ye Chulian could say anything, Quan Qingyun said, "We don't dare to go to such trouble. Just send the child directly to the General's Mansion and let the Second Young Master raise him." He smiled and looked at Ye Feizhou, "Whoever brings the child back should raise it. You have to admit it even if you don't want to. Tomorrow morning I will have someone send Tu Tu to you. Feizhou, you have to take responsibility as well."

Outside Qiuguan City, in the mountains thirty miles high, Ji Rong killed the last man in black. His sword stuck in the snow, and he fell forward all of a sudden, without any strength left.

Just as her face was about to hit the ground, an arm suddenly grabbed her shoulders and held her up. She thought there was someone still alive, so she subconsciously tried to resist, but she heard a familiar voice in her ear saying, "Don't be afraid, I'm Yun Xiao."

Ji Rong hurriedly glanced at the person who came, and seeing that it was indeed Yun Xiao, she finally breathed a sigh of relief and fainted completely.

When I woke up again, I didn't know how long it had been. I just felt warm around me. When I turned my head, I saw a fire. I looked at the place I was in, which seemed to be a cave. At the entrance of the cave, there was a person standing in the wind, with a layer of snow on his hair.

She sat up, and the man immediately turned around to look at her after hearing the noise. "Are you awake?" Then he walked back and added some more wood to the fire. Then he said, "If you don't wake up, I'll go out to collect wood again. It's freezing cold here, and it's easy for a sleeping person to die without a fire. The firewood is wet, and it takes a long time to dry before it can be used. Ji Rong, why are you here alone? Where's your brother?"

Ji Rong felt so warm to Yun Xiao at this moment. For so many days, she had been entangled by a group of men in black, who beat and killed her. If they didn't stop, she would lose her life. She said to Yun Xiao, "My brother and I walked separately. In order to find the master and the emperor as quickly as possible, we chose two directions, one to the south and one to the west. The south is where the master wants to go, and there will be more hope if we follow it. The west is because Su Yuanguo is to the west. My brother said that Su Yuan has a grudge against the master and Princess Zhaolian, so it is also a direction we should look for. I went south and he went west. I don't know what the situation is over there. Anyway, I was ambushed by a group of men in black less than three hours after I started. There were more than a dozen men in black, and each of them was a top master. I barely managed to run and kill all the way. Although I killed them all in the end, if I hadn't met you, I would have frozen to death in the snow."

After she finished speaking, she took a deep breath and was about to stand up to bow to Yun Xiao and thank him for saving her life.

Yun Xiao saw her intention and quickly held her down: "We are all traveling together, so we are partners. There is no need to be polite between partners. I should lend a hand when I see you. Speaking of which, if I hadn't been delayed in Qiuguan City for two days, I would not have met you. This is fate, and you deserve to be rescued. Ji Rong, I checked the bodies of the group of black-clothed men, and it seems that they are not the same group as the ones who kidnapped Princess Zhaolian from the water. Do you know where they came from? Can you tell what kind of martial arts moves they use?"

Ji Rong said: "I can't see the specific moves, but it is definitely not the martial arts commonly used by the Central Plains martial arts world. And you are right, they are not in the same group as those in the water. In fact, if those people in the water fight, they don't have any real skills. They are just good at swimming and can withstand cold. It is obvious that the master behind them specially found such people to ambush us, so we are at a disadvantage in the water.

But the people who besieged me were different. They were very skilled in martial arts, almost as good as me, and there were many of them. I fought and ran all the way, using all the means of saving my life in the Ji family, and even took two doses of poison given by the master in advance, so that I could kill the last person. Unfortunately, I never had the chance to catch them alive, so I didn’t know where they came from or why they were chasing me. ”

She thought as she spoke, and soon added: "Maybe they are not chasing me. Why would they chase a servant like me? They should know that I am with Fourth Miss Ye, so getting rid of me is equivalent to cutting off my master's wings. But it is really a big deal to sacrifice so many masters. It can be seen that the master behind the scenes must be a rich and powerful one, only in this way can he afford to take such a risk to deal with me. Yun Xiao, have you been to Qiuguan City? Have you heard any news about my master?"

Yun Xiao nodded, then waved towards a corner. Only then did Ji Rong realize that Linggui Guan Bao was actually staying in the corner.

Yun Xiao told her: "Miss Ye Si and Lord Emperor are in Qiuguan City. Of course, they were there when I went there, and they may have left in the past few days. Don't worry, they are safe and sound, and are staying temporarily in the government office of Qiuguan City. Many people who were rescued from the river were also taken to the government office, and doctors were sent there to treat them with all their strength.

Fourth Miss Ye asked me to tell you about her situation if I saw you and your sister along the way, so that you can rest assured. Then please return to Lin'an City with your brother Jiduo immediately and assist the emperor with all your strength. Fourth Miss meant that the snow was not only falling in this area, but also in Lin'an City. Such a big natural disaster is also a worrying thing for the court. The emperor has to deal with such a natural disaster when he first ascended the throne. She is afraid that there are not enough people around the emperor. Although some people are left by the emperor's side, at this time, maids and young ladies are useless, and only masters like you can share the worries of the emperor.

So you should go back to Lin'an. Your master will be safe with the Emperor by his side."

Ji Rong frowned when she heard this. "The master is only thinking about helping the emperor and never thinks about herself. After all, Lin'an is the capital, so there won't be any trouble. But she and Lord Emperor Zun are going to Wu'an Sea, so there are too many uncertainties."

Yun Xiao asked her: "So what do you think? Do you listen to your master or not?"

Ji Rong sighed, "I still have to listen. The most important thing that Ji Nu has been taught since childhood is to obey. If we don't obey, we will lose the meaning of our existence, and the Emperor will not tolerate us. I am just worried about the master. After all, she said a long time ago that this snow suppressed the spiritual power of the Emperor. If the Emperor does not use his spiritual power, he will be no different from a mortal."

At this time, Guan Bao, who had been silent, spoke up: "Don't worry, if my spiritual power cannot be used, I will not be able to come out of the storage bracelet. You, girl, should listen to your master and hurry back to the capital. Although I am just a spiritual pet, I also know that the stability of a country depends first on the stability of the capital, and then on the stability of the border. Your master is right, the little emperor's throne is not warm yet, and if there is a natural disaster at this time, I am afraid that someone will say that he should not be the emperor or something. You go back and help him, and your master will be relieved when he is outside."

Ji Rong thought about it and nodded, "Okay, then I will go back to Kyoto and send a message to my brother to ask him to come back. But where are you going? Guan Bao, why are you following Yun Xiao?"

Guan Bao said: "We are going to do something righteous. We are going to Suyuan Kingdom and kill that old emperor of Suyuan!"

"Go to Suyuan? Go to find Princess Zhaolian? But have you confirmed that the one who kidnapped Princess Zhaolian was from Suyuan?"

Yun Xiao nodded, "Confirmed. And you just said that the moves of those men in black don't seem to be from the Central Plains, so they are most likely from Suyuan. Maybe they prepared two groups of people, one group will kidnap Princess Zhaolian in the water and then hold us back. The other group will wait on the shore to pick us up and take us all the way to Suyuan. No matter what, I will definitely go find her. Since you are fine, I won't stay any longer, I have to go."

"Okay." Ji Rong couldn't persuade him. Yun Xiao was Feng Zhaolian's bodyguard. If his master was missing, he would definitely look for him. So she could only say to him, "I will remember Brother Yun's life-saving grace this time. I will definitely repay this grace when I have the chance in the future. Our Ji family values gratitude. Brother Yun is my life-saver. The Ji family will all remember your kindness."

Yun Xiao waved his hand, "We are partners, there is no need to say these polite words, and I don't expect you to save me." He thought for a moment, and took out another pill that Ye Wenyan had given him, "This is the medicine given by Fourth Miss Ye, it is said to cure all diseases, you can take one!"

Ji Rong saw that he was holding a very small bottle, and knew that the pill was precious. Her master probably didn't have many pills, so she gave them all to Yun Xiao. She shook her head, "I don't want it. I'm fine, and I'm not injured. I fainted because I consumed too much internal energy before. Now I've had a good sleep, and my internal energy has recovered. I don't need to take medicine at all. You keep this medicine. Su Yuan has a lot of strange things. One more pill means one more chance to save your life. I follow my master, so I know how powerful this pill is. You should keep it well!"

She stood up when she said this, "Brother Yun is in a hurry to leave, I will see you off, not far, just out of the cave. I will stay here for a while, and I will return to the capital after the fire is burned out."

Yun Xiao also stood up, looked at her, said nothing, put the pills in his hand on the ground, then turned and left.

Ji Rong chased outside for a while, but failed to catch up. The wind and snow soon blocked Yun Xiao, and everything in sight was white.

All that could be heard was Guan Bao's voice coming from afar: "Girl from the Ji family, go back to the capital quickly!"

Ji Rong suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and half-knelt on the ground.

In fact, she was just holding on. How could she not be injured after fighting with so many men in black for several days? But she knew that Yun Xiao was in a hurry to find Feng Zhaolian, so she couldn't tell him, so as not to delay Yun Xiao's trip.

Yun Xiao forced her to keep the pill, which saved her life. She really owed him this life-saving favor.

She struggled back to the fire, picked up the pill on the ground, and threw it into her mouth without thinking.

The pill dissolved in her mouth. She immediately sat cross-legged and adjusted her breathing. She felt the internal energy quickly spreading throughout her body. It was quite magical.

Ji Rong sighed that her young lady's medicine was the most effective in the world, and it was not an exaggeration to call her a miracle doctor.
