C10 Forbidden garden

"What do you want to do?" She had come to Yongde Palace often and recognized every single one of the people there. However, Dongfang Shan and the others were extremely unfamiliar with them, and coupled with the people from the palace who had been knocked out, as well as the smell of gunpowder in the air, she predicted that things would not be good. Thus, she intentionally said that Xiao Ru Ao wanted to see Mu Qianxue and use this opportunity to leave Yongde Palace to call the guards to deal with them, but who would have thought that she would be seen through.

Mu Qianxue swept a cold glance over her, then walked to the side of the palace maid who had warned Madame Cao before, and coldly said: "Go and tell Xiao Ruo Ao that I am willing to use the treasure buried by the Southern Wasteland many years ago and the Cao family's life in exchange for my own life."

Seeing that the palace maid had hesitated for a moment, Mu Qianxue's voice turned cold, like the frost on dead autumn grass, "What, do you really not want your master's life?"

Hearing the dense killing intent in her words, the palace maid quickly replied: "No, your servant ? This servant will go right now! "

Once she gained her freedom, she quickly left without delay. As soon as she left, Xia Yue frowned and said, "Empress, you told her to invite His Majesty here. Could it be that she still wants to ?"

Mu Qianxue raised a hand to interrupt her. Then, she turned to Dongfang Zhi, who was also frowning, and said, "Don't worry. Since you promised me, I will naturally not plan to do anything like that."

Her words made Dongfang Bing relax his brows. He then asked, "If that's the case, why did you let him come?"

He said slowly, "Every fifteen minutes, the Imperial guards will inspect the situation of the various palaces. At this moment, I believe that they have already discovered that someone had trespassed into the forbidden palace, and from there, they have guarded the entrance of each palace strictly. There are a total of three thousand Imperial guards in the forbidden palace, and even if the person you brought could fight one or ten of them, or even hundreds of enemies, they would still not be able to escape from this forbidden palace.

"Your Majesty will definitely not let you leave this place for even a single step. Mu Qianxue, in front of you, there is only death waiting for you. If you let me go right now, you can die a little painstakingly.

Mu Qianxue looked at her coldly. Suddenly, she smiled like a hundred flowers were blooming at the same time, causing her to be unbearably beautiful. Even though Madame Cao was a girl, she couldn't help but be absent-minded for a moment, "Cao Min Zhao, you and I have known each other for four years. Aside from this time where you have jointly deceived me, when have you missed me?"

Madame Cao was rendered speechless by her question. Indeed, Mu Qianxue was extremely intelligent, and had never missed the opportunity to help Xiao Ruo Ao take his first step. Every step and every thought that the enemy took was within her expectations.

It could be said that if it wasn't for her near blind trust in Xiao Ruo Ao, they definitely wouldn't have fooled her, let alone that it had been four years!

Madame Cao bit her thin white teeth and said: "You are indeed very smart, but now you have three thousand soldiers. Even if you have the ability to travel through the world, you will not be able to escape.

The corner of Mu Qianxue's lips rose, "You wouldn't be me, because you aren't worthy!"

Madame Cao had never been ridiculed in such a manner. Her face flushed from anger as she glared at Mu Qianxue, "You sharp-tongued slut, when His Majesty and the imperial guards arrive, I'll see what you do!"

Mu Qianxue's face sank. She fiercely pinched Madame Cao's chin and said word by word, "You better pray that I'm okay. Otherwise, I'll drag you to hell with me!"

It was unknown whether she was intimidated by her gaze or her words, but Madame Cao actually didn't dare to speak any further. However, very quickly, even if she wanted to, she had no words left to say, because Mu Qianxue had told Xia Yue to gag all of them.

After tying them up one by one, Mu Qianxue carefully picked up the sheepskin bag filled with gunpowder and buried it under a tree. There was only a lead wire outside, and the black lead wire was curled in the same black soil.

A gust of wind blew past, brushing against the petal of the pink, feather-like Joyous Flower. A petal of the pale red, creamy apricot flower interweaved, and landed on Mu Qianxue's snow-white skirt. Looking at it, it was as if it was imprinted on it.

Unfortunately, this forbidden garden was like a cage of darkness to her, so how could it have the word 'beautiful'? Furthermore, currently, in Mu Qianxue's eyes, there were only three colors, black, white and grey.

Mu Qianxue turned around without hesitation, letting those tender petals rise from her skirt and fall into the black spring mud. She stopped in front of Dongfang Zhi and asked, "You said that there are a total of twelve people.

Dongfang Qing used his finger to tap against his lips and let out a crisp whistle. Following that, a gray shadow appeared on the tiled roof of the palace hall. There were exactly eight people there, no one knew when this person had hidden himself on top of the palace hall.

Mu Qianxue took a glance and asked, "Is there anyone who is proficient in archery?"

Dongfang Shou pointed to a person standing to the east and said simply, "Seventeen is best at archery, he can pierce through trees with one hundred steps."

Mu Qianxue nodded. Just as she was about to speak, a gust of spring breeze blew over, and in the next moment, she covered her mouth and began to cough violently.

"Why are you coughing so viciously?" If one listened more carefully, they would notice a trace of concern concealed within Dongfang Qing's seemingly indifferent voice.

"It's nothing. I just suffered a wind, so my throat is itchy. It's nothing." Mu Qianxue casually found an excuse to reply.

However, Xia Yue couldn't help but reveal the truth with a single sentence, "It's not the wind, it's obviously the poison that His Majesty had secretly drugged."

Dongfang Zhi's expression changed and he asked, "What medicine?"

"Ever since the Empress came to the West Chu, she has always spent most of her time in bed, watching countless famous doctors and imperial doctors, and never seeing any change in them. Every single one of them said that this illness was caused by the failure of the Imperial Physician, and that it was caused by an illness caused by the resistance of the soil and water, and that it never healed; only today when His Majesty personally spoke of it did I find out that the Empress's illness was caused by his hand. He had taken the medicine in the Empress's food, and those so-called Imperial Physicians had all been ordered by him to lie in front of her; they even killed the personal guards the Empress brought from South Zhao." As she said these words, Xia Yue's eyes were already red. If she hadn't personally heard and personally seen it, she wouldn't have believed that Xiao Ruo Ao could actually have a heart of stone to such an extent!

"This is already the past, why are you still bringing it up?" Mu Qianxue spoke indifferently, but no one could tell what she was thinking. She could only hope to see it in the depths of her eyes. Only then could she see the hatred that was surging like the tide for a moment!
