"Your Highness, your son entered the Soul Hunting Forest an hour ago."

Jiang Zhan's deep voice echoed in the hall, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on half of his face, making this half of his face filled with golden brilliance. But the other half of his face has been hidden in the darkness, which is extremely weird.

"Oh, is it so"

Xue Yue's slender eyelashes moved slightly, her eyes remained unchanged, and she said slowly, "I don't even know Yuan'er's whereabouts, but you know it very well."

"There is no way, it's my duty. Only by knowing the whereabouts of His Highness Zhou Yuan can we kill him with one strike."

Jiang Zhan raised his head and looked directly at Xue Yue, having such a generous showdown.

As soon as these words came out, Xue Yue was suddenly startled, and her face that was as calm as water just now was immediately covered with frost. "In front of a mother, talking about how to assassinate her son, you Wuhun Palace are too domineering."

"On the contrary, Your Highness, tell the truth, it is my respect for you. After all, there is no enmity between us, we just have different positions." Jiang Zhan took two steps forward, his broad face suddenly filled with Facing the afterglow of the setting sun, he actually looked a little frank and frank.

Jiang Zhan is not a fool.

When Princess Xue Yue suddenly visited Wuhun Hall with great fanfare, he knew that the assassination was revealed.

Therefore, Jiang Zhan, who had always been upright, simply admitted it.

Of course, this is also related to Jiang Zhan's personal style. If it were Qiangu Liufeng, that old fox, he would definitely not admit even a single word.

"Where's your Eternal Bishop? He went to the Soul Hunting Forest himself."

After exposing the window paper, Xue Yue was too lazy to pretend anymore and asked directly.

Jiang Zhan nodded and said in a sincere tone, "That's right. The bishop went to chase him personally. With his soul power level of up to seventy-six, your son will probably..."

"Hmph, maybe that old guy is unlucky," Xue Yue said coldly.

Jiang Zhan's expression did not change, and he said calmly, "I know that there may be a strong Soul Saint beside you. The last failed assassination of the Soul Saint in Shi Nian has given us a warning."

After a pause, Jiang Zhan changed the subject and said, "So, this time not only our Wuhun Palace, but King Balak Kundla also doesn't want your son to survive."

Hearing this, Xue Yue's heart suddenly tightened and her face changed sharply. An indescribable panic rose in her heart.

After a long time, Xue Yue regained her composure on the surface. She stared at Jiang Zhan, like a female animal protecting her cubs, and said fiercely, "If Yuan'er does something wrong, I will immediately return to the imperial capital and report it to the emperor." Condition"

"Then you must be able to go back."

Jiang Zhan smiled and said gently, "But don't worry, you are the princess of the empire. We will not do anything to you, especially not to kill His Highness Wuhun. That would have too much impact."

"But you can't stay in Wuhun Palace forever."

At the same time, Hunting Forest.

The huge team from the Duke's Palace has entered the forest. It was quiet here, with only the slight chirping of insects and birds, and the air was extremely fresh. Zhou Yuan, who was sitting in the carriage, felt relaxed and happy after taking one breath.

Lifting the black car curtain, Zhou Yuan saw a dream world.

The trees here are towering, layer upon layer covering the sky and the sun, making the entire forest extremely dark. However, the branches and leaves of the trees here are not green on earth, but blue-purple. All kinds of flowers, plants and shrubs that were completely different from what Zhou Yuan was familiar with filled his field of vision.

For example, a water lily with constantly shaking petals has a Smurf-like appearance and is even slightly fluorescent.

"so beautiful"

Zhou Yuan sincerely praised him, his relaxed manner made Shi Feng next to him sweat profusely.

What time has it been? Are you still in the mood to appreciate these flowers and plants?

We will be assassinated by Wuhun Palace at any time, okay?

Seeing Shi Feng being so nervous, Zhou Yuan smiled and said, "Relax, Wuhun Palace won't take action now."

After a pause, Zhou Yuan continued, "The way to assassinate is to surprise and attack the unprepared one. Now that we have just entered the Soul Hunting Forest, it is the most vigilant time. If we take action, even if the Spirit Hall wins, we will still lose." heavy."

"According to my estimation, it is more reliable to wait until late at night or early in the morning, when ordinary people are sleeping, for Wuhun Palace to launch an assassination."

Looking at Zhou Yuan who was talking eloquently and seemed to be very experienced, Shi Feng sweated in his heart.

I really didn't realize that you have studied the art of assassination.

Finally, Zhou Yuan, who was a little thirsty, reached out and took the pot of tea handed over by Shi Feng. Niu drank a few sips before he stopped preaching with satisfaction.

As an internet troll, Zhou Yuan felt very strongly about this one-word lecture.

Looking at the sky outside the car window, Zhou Yuan ordered, "The sun sets in the west and it's already getting late. Let's find a place to camp first. It must be on a higher ground, with a wide field of vision and few obstructions to prevent enemy fire attacks and ambushes. It’s best to have a water source like a creek nearby.”

"But Your Highness, other conditions are easy to negotiate, but in this forest, the vegetation is dense, and it is almost impossible to find an open place." Shi Feng said with some embarrassment.

"Uh this"

Zhou Yuan was stunned for a moment in embarrassment, and then said with some annoyance, "You don't know how to cut down trees? Are you going to create a clearing?"

"As ordered."

Shi Feng, who felt that he had offended Zhou Yuan, obediently agreed and left as ordered.

Soon, after sending out several waves of reconnaissance scouts, they finally found a terrain that was more in line with Zhou Yuan's vision. Thousands of people began to cut wood, hoe weeds, and set up camp here.

Zhou Yuan also got off the carriage, surrounded by more than soul masters including Shi Feng, patrolling around with his hands behind his back, instructing the guard knights and mercenaries on their work from time to time, and also asked Shi Feng to take a small notebook and write down his The sermons are all recorded on it.

Although Zhou Yuan was only twelve years old and his face was a bit immature, Zhou Yuan's guidance made these battle-hardened veterans feel that the young duke had quite a leadership style.

After all, as an Internet troll, Zhou Yuan still learned a lot of military knowledge from the Internet. Even if it was just on paper, it was better than these soldiers from the feudal era who could not even write their names.

For example, Zhou Yuan required that ditches and horses be prepared when setting up camp, and a separate path was paved for the royal knights to charge on horseback;

For another example, Zhou Yuan required everyone except himself to keep their armor on at night and sleep with their helmets on their pillows;

He also ordered more than a dozen silver-armored knights and mercenaries with good night vision to climb the tallest nearby trees and serve as lookout posts to observe the surroundings in case of a sudden attack from the Spirit Hall.

In fact, most ancient armies could not do these seemingly simple things. Otherwise, in the history of the earth, there would not have been so many armies that were defeated by a night attack.

After doing this, Zhou Yuan asked everyone to take turns to go to the river to replenish drinking water, clean armor and weapons, and replenish some rough dry food.

As for himself, he was lying comfortably in the velvet-covered carriage, eating exquisite four dishes and one soup.

There was no way, two years of luxurious aristocratic life had completely degenerated Zhou Yuan. If conditions didn't allow it, he would have brought two maids with him
