Don't panic, nephew. I will take this pot of evil star.

"Hahaha, hahaha!" A sharp laugh came from inside the stone gate, and a black shadow rushed out holding Feng Xili.

"What happened?" Emperor Qi Zhao was shocked. Before he could see Feng Xili's face clearly, she jumped off the ground and ran out the door.

"Ah! Those birds! Shoot them down!" she screamed.

Emperor Qi Zhao followed and chased out. A dozen birds that came from nowhere near Tianling had already flown into the sky and were flapping their wings to escape into the distance.

In the blink of an eye, several black shadows flew away into the distance, and then all kinds of feathers began to fall from the sky.

"Li You, what's going on?" Emperor Qi Zhao looked at her obviously anxious face and stepped forward to ask.

"Your Majesty, that woman is so insightful. She guessed my identity." She said softly after looking around carefully.

Emperor Qi Zhao was shocked. This is impossible!

In this palace, only Li You and I know about it. How could others guess it?

Feng Xili's eyes flickered. It was impossible for her to guess, but she guessed the secret that she could foresee.

This secret was even more shocking, and she didn't dare to take the risk of letting Emperor Qi Zhao know.

Moreover, the woman could actually speak bird language. The shrill cry she made when she first entered the door was a signal to call the birds.

Everything that went wrong started with that irrelevant question of hers.

Last night's dream was that she suspected that she had put a curse on herself. She gritted her teeth and tried to launch a sneak attack, but was subdued by the hidden Dark Armor Guard in one move. After that, she used the poison carried by the summoned bird and committed suicide on the spot without any hesitation.

However, everything changed after the question "How old are you?" was asked. The woman suddenly changed the question, and my subconscious surprise seemed to make her see through something.

She laughed wildly a few times, whistled a few times, and then she heard the sound of flapping wings.

Is she sending a message to the birds?

Feng Xili understood it on the spot. No matter whether she really guessed something or not, she couldn't let the news spread.

However, the next second, she was so frightened by the woman's actions that her whole body turned cold.

She pulled her arm hard, and her wrist, which was bound by the chain, was instantly dislocated and deformed. The next moment, bits of white light shot towards her, and the woman crashed into the stone wall on the side.

The Dark Armor Guard held Feng Xili in his arms and avoided the sudden attack. When he turned around, he saw that she had fallen into a puddle.

Noticing that Her Royal Highness the Princess was uneasy, the Dark Armor Guards quickly escorted her out.

When he returned to the dungeon, the woman lying in the puddle had already died.

After hearing this, Emperor Qi Zhao felt it was absurd. Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind. Empress Wen Yiling often visited neighboring countries privately. Could it be that her identity had been revealed at that time? Or perhaps she had some unknown encounter?

Feng Xili felt a little guilty. Even if it was a white lie, it was still a lie.

"Your Majesty, Prince Mu San caught a bird." The guard reported.

Hmm? Third Prince Mu?

"Greetings, Your Majesty." Mu Mingyan's brisk voice came, and this guy actually walked up to him, holding a dead bird in one hand.

"No need for formalities. How did the Third Prince Mu enter the palace?" Emperor Qi Zhao asked kindly, his tone not quite happy.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I heard that the fifth princess was frightened a while ago and has not returned to the inn, so I wanted to come and visit her."

The worry on Mu Mingyan's face didn't seem fake, and it sounded reasonable for him to come visit his sister.

Emperor Qi Zhao smiled awkwardly, "This bird..."

He looked at the dead bird in his hand and smiled. "Just now I saw the guards were catching flying birds. This bird came straight at me, so I took it upon myself to catch it."

As he said this, he handed the bird to the leader of the guards next to him.

The dead bird that was motionless just now immediately jumped around in the guard's hands, as if it had come back to life.

"Thank you." The guard thanked him and retreated, pinching the bird's neck.

Feng Xili looked at the bird that was still flapping its wings, and always felt like she had overlooked something.

Emperor Qi Zhao gave a subtle wink, and Fude immediately stepped forward to lead the way, taking Prince Mu San to meet Mu Lingyin.

"Your Majesty, all the birds have been killed, only this one is left." Seeing Fude taking Mu Mingyan away, the captain of the guards turned back.

"Your Majesty, can you give this bird to me?" Feng Xili felt that perhaps this bird could give her some inspiration.

Emperor Qi Zhao thought for a moment and said simply, "Come and get it tomorrow."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" she replied with a smile.

The ceremony of Mu Lingyin's canonization as a consort is coming soon. Emperor Qi Zhao has been in a good mood recently. This is the biggest happy event in the palace in recent years.

The captain of the guards followed Emperor Qi Zhao around a few corners and then disappeared, while the bird was still flapping its wings.

She turned her head to look at Tianling behind her. Someone had already gone in to clean up the mess. This woman was too sharp-minded and decisive. She didn't seem like an ordinary minion. The person behind her was probably not simple either.

Feng Xili got on his own carriage and drove out of the palace slowly.

"Miss, Miss Feng sent you something." As soon as she left the palace, Lai Xiang handed her a letter.

Changjun?

She hadn't visited her since they last met at Damingkong Temple. At that time, she had saved Tianxu's life in a critical moment. Although the Prime Minister and his wife went to express their gratitude and sent a thank-you gift,

But before she could tell her, His Majesty had no objection to her wishing to join the army.

She looked at the few words in the letter and widened her eyes in shock. Changjun had already changed his clothes and gone to the military camp?

The letter said that she had received the approval of His Majesty and was arranged to serve as an assistant to a young general. To be on the safe side, the camp commander Wang Yao also received an oral order from His Majesty, instructing him to cultivate her more.

She told herself not to worry and to go see her mother if it was convenient. She didn't want to be sad about the separation, so she left without saying goodbye.

Feng Xili felt a lump in her throat and almost burst into tears.

Feng Changjun is from a military family. She has the path she wants to take, and I respect her choice.

She had just put the letter away when the carriage suddenly braked to a stop.

"What's wrong?" she asked in the carriage.

"Miss, the road ahead is blocked. It seems like a few circuses have come and blocked the road." Lai Ye replied.

Feng Xili lifted the curtain and got out of the car. She looked from a distance and saw that it was really crowded.

"Forget it, let's go back on foot." She walked forward, unwilling to drive away these simple people.

On weekdays I usually hang out with friends and family, but today why not just go for a walk on my own?

The weather is getting colder and the New Year is approaching. Every household is busy and the streets are already filled with a festive atmosphere.

It just so happened that she was not short of money now, and Emperor Qi Zhao gave her a lot of rewards in private.

There is also Jiuyi's wedding gift, she needs to think about it.

I bought a lot of cloth, ready-made clothes, pens, ink, paper and inkstone.

He also spent a fortune to buy several books of calligraphy by famous masters, just the right gifts for his father and Tianxu. The Prime Minister's wife loves jade, and I don't know if she likes this jade bracelet.

Feng Xili was shopping all over the street, and soon she was spotted by some people.

Xia Feng and Kang Jue looked at each other and understood.

"Miss, it's getting late. We should go back."

She was excited about shopping when Xia Feng suddenly made a suggestion. Then she saw Kang Jue, Lai Ye and others, all carrying their arms full of things, staggering behind her.

She blinked, a little embarrassed.

"Hahaha, sorry, sorry, I got carried away." She looked at Xia Feng.

"Xia Feng, go and check our carriage. Hasn't it arrived yet?" She stood on tiptoe and looked in the direction they came from, and told Xia Feng to bring the carriage over.

She looked at the things in Kang Jue and the other man's arms, squinting her eyes and smiling happily.

She didn't notice that a few little beggars suddenly rushed out from the bun shop next to her and bumped into her in panic.

Kang Jue's vision was blocked by the towering gift box in his arms. When he realized something was wrong, he immediately reached out to grab Feng Xili, but he was still a moment too late.
