Traveling through the emperor, overthrowing the empress dowager at the beginning

Under the leadership of Murong Yan, Ye Chen soon arrived at the foot of the Qinling Mountains.

"Is this here?"

Ye Chen looked up at the cliff in front of him and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. The cliff was at a 90-degree angle to the ground, like a sharp sword piercing the sky.

"Yan'er, where is the road?"

Ye Chen asked Murong Yan with some confusion.

He looked left and right, but there was no sign of a road.

"here."

Murong Yan raised her hand and pointed to a place on the cliff.

Ye Chen looked closely and found that there were many grooves where he pointed.

Moreover, the grooves are divided into two rows, extending from the foot of the mountain to the top of the cliff.

"Your Majesty, anyone skilled in climbing can quickly reach the top of the cliff through these grooves using both hands and feet."

"Many people from nearby mountains climb up through these grooves. This can reduce the time it takes to climb the mountain. It's a shortcut, but it's a bit dangerous."

Murong Yan said to Ye Chen.

Hearing this, Ye Chen looked up at the cliff that was more than ten meters high, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that these mountain people were really brave.

"Send someone up to climb first, and have that person bring the rope. Once that person reaches the top of the cliff, throw the rope down."

Ye Chen ordered.

He had no intention of climbing the cliff like the mountain people, having someone go up and throw down the rope, and then he would climb up the mountain along the rope. That was the safest way.

"Yes!"

Shen Qiu immediately stood up, reached out to take the rope, and then ran towards the cliff in two steps under Ye Chen's surprised gaze.

"Qiu'er, don't go, let others go."

Ye Chen frowned slightly. He didn't want Shen Qiu to get into trouble. But before he could finish his words, Shen Qiu went up to the top of the cliff and climbed more than two meters in an instant.

Looking at its figure as agile as a monkey.

Ye Chen had no choice but to remain silent.

"Is this Qinggong?"

Ye Chen watched Shen Qiu quickly climb to the top of the cliff, feeling emotional, but he saw a hemp rope thrown down from the top of the cliff.

He immediately asked Chuji to try it first.

After making sure there is no problem.

He turned over and immediately grabbed the rope, tied it around his waist, and climbed up the mountain quickly.

Before he traveled through time, he had participated in military training. During one of the training sessions, the instructor who trained him specially arranged a mountain climbing course.

He had some experience, and with Shen Qiu holding the rope and pulling him on the top of the cliff, he climbed slowly and calmly, and reached the top of the cliff very safely.

Shen Qiu then threw down several more ropes.

While waiting for the imperial guards to climb up the cliff.

Ye Chen began to observe his surroundings.

The vegetation on the Qinling Mountains is lush. Among the dense grass, a path leads straight into the depths of the green forest.

This trail was obviously created by the mountain dwellers who frequently went up the mountain.

"Hide your footsteps and proceed carefully."

Ye Chen whispered an instruction and saw Murong Yan coming to his side.

But what Ye Chen didn't expect was that Murong Yan climbed the cliff faster than most of the imperial guards.

"This Qinggong is only slightly weaker than Qiu'er's."

Ye Chen was a little surprised that Murong Yan was not only beautiful but also had great martial arts skills.

Su Mengjiao is as pretty as her, but her martial arts skills are not as good as hers. Shen Qiu’s martial arts skills are as good as hers, but she is not as pretty.

Ye Chen likes her more and more.

"Your Majesty, everyone has come up."

Seeing Ye Chen staring at Murong Yan, Shen Qiu's face darkened and he said to Ye Chen.

"Well, let me take a look at the map first."

Ye Chen took out the Qinling topographic map, looked at it carefully, and quickly determined his position.

"There's a place nearby where smoke has been seen. Let's have someone clear the way so we can go over and take a look."

Ye Chen pointed to a place marked by Su Fu and said.

"Yes."

Shen Qiu immediately waved his hand.

Immediately afterwards, dozens of people from the Supervisory Department took the lead and walked towards the forest.

The mountain road is rugged.

Especially the mountain roads that have not yet been developed.

Even with the imperial guards clearing the way, some places were still difficult to pass through, and only one person was allowed to pass.

One wrong step could lead to a bottomless abyss.

Shen Qiu and Murong Yan always followed Ye Chen. There was always a hemp rope tied around Ye Chen's waist, and the other end of the rope was held by Shen Qiu.

"Oh my God!"

Lu Niudan pressed his back tightly against the rock, sweating profusely as he watched a stone fall off the cliff beside him.

"This, this road is too difficult to walk on, let's take another one."

"Good good."

Chu Ji on the side nodded quickly and passed the news of the exploration to the imperial guards behind.

There are many people who are exploring the path like them.

As the emperor, Ye Chen naturally had to take the safest path.

However, Ye Chen did not go far.

"Your Majesty, a person has been spotted ahead."

Hearing this, Ye Chen raised his eyebrows and looked at Shen Qiu beside him.

"who?"

Ye Chen asked doubtfully.

"Your Majesty, judging by his uniform, he must be from the Beijing Camp. When the people from the Supervisory Office found him, he was squatting in the grass to relieve himself."

Shen Qiu said so.

"Can I take it?"

"can!"

"Then wait for the people from the Supervisory Department to take action. Leave him alive. I have something to ask! It doesn't matter if you don't leave him alive. The main thing is not to make too much noise."

Ye Chen snorted and said.

"Yes!"

The front of the team.

After receiving the order, Lu Niudan quietly approached with the people from the Supervisory Office.

Before the man from the Beijing camp could react, he was knocked unconscious by a poison needle, then tied up and gagged, and brought to Ye Chen.

"Don't yell, or I'll chop you off."

Ye Chen looked down at the tied-up guy with a very cold tone.

Shen Qiu stepped forward and took the cloth out of his mouth.

The man looked at Ye Chen in panic, his face turned pale with fear.
