That day, Uncle Zheng got up early in the morning and opened the door of Gu's house, and found a box at the door.

He walked over to pick it up and found that the box was tied with a piece of cloth with the words "Received by the King of Xiang" written on it.

He looked around but saw no one. He picked up the box and found a group of people surrounding him.

"Looking at the size of this box, it should contain gold hairpins, jade hairpins, etc."

"Give this to the prince, are you sure it's not a prank?"

"Putting it at the door secretly, it must be a hidden intention, why not just throw it away."

"If it's something useful, it's not good to throw it away..."

Several people discussed the box for a long time, and finally decided to send the box to the palace for Jiang Xue Ning.

Uncle Zheng took the token given by Jiang Xue Ning and went to ask for an audience, and was soon brought into the palace.

After entering the imperial study, he bowed first.

"No need to be polite." Jiang Xue Ning asked gently after letting him sit down, "Uncle Zheng suddenly asked to see you, is there something wrong?"

Uncle Zheng took out the box and said, "I found this box at the door as soon as I opened the door today. The cloth strip on it said it was for you."

Qing He took the box and presented it to Jiang Xue Ning. She took it and recognized the handwriting on the cloth strip as Xiao Lin Feng's.

finally come.

She put down the box, talked to Uncle Zheng for a while, gave him a bunch of things as rewards, and asked someone to send him out of the palace.

As soon as the person left, her face turned cold and she ordered the palace servants, "Go and call Xingchen over."

Gu Xingchen, Shen Zhaoyan and others arrived soon one after another, and Bai Yu Wu Jin also came.

Wu Jin reported back, "We have already found some clues about Xiao Linfeng's whereabouts."

She sneered and shook the box in her hand, "They can't wait to fall into our trap!"

After briefly explaining the situation, Shen Zhaoyan asked someone to bring him a pair of gloves to put on before opening the box.

Inside the box was a beautiful jade hairpin and a lock of hair. She took out the lock of hair she had received before and put the two locks together. They looked similar in color and length.

Gu Xingchen sneered, "As a street rat, he is quite leisurely and gives away hair again."

She picked up the jade hairpin in her hand and fell into deep thought. She felt that it looked very familiar and looked at it carefully over and over again.

Finally, it was discovered that the word "Yang Yang" was secretly engraved in the magnolia flower on the hairpin.

She finally remembered, "This is the coming-of-age gift he gave me."

At that time, she had already been designated as the Princess of Chen, and there had always been rumors that the Emperor would decree a marriage between her and the Prince of Chen on her coming of age day.

In addition, the Gu family was very prominent at that time, so her coming-of-age ceremony could be said to be the grandest and most glorious coming-of-age ceremony in the capital at that time.

Naturally, she received countless gifts. After she looked at this jade hairpin when she opened the gift, she put it in the jewelry box and never wore it once.

She guessed that he found it in her jewelry box after the incident between her and the Gu family.

There was a note at the bottom of the box. She picked it up and took a look. There were only three words on it: "Look at the Cliff."

This is where?

Soon they took out a map and checked it, and found that it was a cliff hidden in the deep mountains near the capital.

Shen Zhaoyan said, "You guys go and scout out the situation first, and find out the terrain and route."

Bai Yu and Wu Jin took the order and immediately led their men to Wangduan Cliff.

She picked up the lock of hair, feeling somewhat heavy-hearted, the threat was too obvious.

When Wu Jin came back to report, she was polishing her specially customized silver bow. After three years of hard practice, she had basically recovered to the level of her previous life.

Gu Mingyue once learned archery at the age of seven. She was best at archery, and although she rarely shot arrows, her arrows never missed their targets.

She smelled a faint scent of blood. "It seems that the situation is not simple?"

"The people I brought with me tried it out, and found that there were traps everywhere from the moment we entered the mountain." Wu Jin frowned and said, "Almost everyone who went in was injured and couldn't go deeper."

"This is a dead end waiting for me." She sneered, "No rush, keep investigating and reporting."

Anyway, she was not the one who was in a hurry. She had already surrounded people outside the mountain, and she had plenty of time to waste time with him.

Wu Jin and his men explored for another three days. The road into the mountain and the place leading to the Forget Cliff were filled with traps almost at every step, and a tight net was carefully laid out.

Moreover, there should be tens of thousands of elite soldiers and many secret guards and assassins hiding in the mountains.

Shen Zhaoyan raised his eyebrows after hearing this, "I'm going to reveal all my secrets. I want to fight you to the death."

"It's just a fight between trapped beasts." She said calmly, "He has always been like this. He knows he has no way to escape, so he wants to disgust me in the end."

"If you don't go and just trap him on the mountain, won't he be furious?"

"It's all over now. We still have to see each other one last time." She pulled the bow that looked small but powerful. "He must die in my hands."

Besides, she had to meet Gu Shengsheng and ask her what she really thought. Could she be so careless and feel at ease?

Bai Yu looked for hunters and old farmers who often went into the mountains nearby and drew a detailed map and route.

At her command, three thousand secret guards and thirty thousand elite soldiers came out and surrounded them.

With such a big commotion, the news that Xiao Linfeng was looking at the cliff spread like wildfire, and many people were waiting to see what would happen to him.

Qiao Xue came to see her specially and asked, "Back then, when we were confronting the Yan Wang army, many members of my father's and second uncle's Qiao family were beheaded outside the city gate by his order. I want to go and witness his end with my own eyes!"

She was a great contributor to the affairs of Yandi, and she could understand this blood feud very well, so she immediately agreed, "Let's go together."

Before leaving, she couldn't help but complain, "I wanted to find someone to threaten him, but I couldn't find anyone."

Sang Yu and his sister were dead, his mother, Concubine Ying, died at his hands, and Xiao Linglong died for her country. Looking around, there was no one in this world that he cared about, and of course no one who cared about him.

Gu Xingchen snorted coldly, "It is because of him that he has become more paranoid and twisted, and has nothing to fear."

"This is the barefoot people not afraid of those wearing shoes, which is quite sad when you think about it."

A few people were chatting, and soon they arrived at the woods at the foot of the mountain. Soldiers had surrounded the place and the atmosphere was tense.

Many people came. Lin Ran came to join in the fun. Duan Xilou, as an old acquaintance who was badly harmed by him, came to witness his final end.

Wu Jin asked, "When will we start?"

Jiang Xue Ning glanced at the sky and said, "It's getting late today, so we'll attack the mountain early tomorrow morning."

Everyone rested nearby for the night, and a big fire was built on the edge of the forest at night.

Xiao Linfeng in the mountains naturally also received the news and knew that she had arrived.

He was standing on the cliff, distracted. Gu Shengsheng walked over slowly. "She's here. What are you thinking about?"

He picked up a stone from the ground and threw it off the cliff, but there was no echo.

"Do you know why I chose this place?" He curled his lips coldly, "Because this is a bottomless abyss. Once a person jumps in, even if the people waiting on the mountain are heartbroken, they will not be able to come back."

She subconsciously took a step back, "Who do you want to jump?"

"Don't be afraid, it won't be you."

That night, Luwu roasted pheasant, fried wild vegetables with mushrooms, stewed fish soup and fried rabbit meat. He used up all the ingredients that could be found in the mountains to make a rich dinner.

In front of Gu Shengsheng was a bowl of bird's nest specially prepared for her.

As soon as he sat down, Xiao Linfeng smiled, "The last meal before execution is quite sumptuous. You've worked so hard."

Gu Shengsheng couldn't eat anymore after eating two mouthfuls of bird's nest. He served her a bowl of fish soup and said, "Eat more, otherwise how will you have the energy to meet them tomorrow?"

She forced herself to drink another half bowl of fish soup, only to feel a splitting headache.

"Luwu, help me go back to my room and lie down for a while."

In the wooden house, her bed was very warm. The conditions in the mountains were naturally not good, but her food and accommodation were carefully taken care of.

But this kind of "good" only makes her sad now.

She leaned on the bed, Lu Wu lit some calming incense and brought her a cup of warm water.

She took out the small porcelain bottle, poured out the last pill left by the miracle doctor, and swallowed it with warm water. "It's finally the end."

When the miracle doctor gave her the medicine, he said that although this medicine could make her get better quickly, the strong medicinal ingredients used would directly overdraw her body.

After taking three pills, her body will quickly deteriorate and die after the effect of the medicine wears off.

So the doctor repeatedly reminded her to take the medicine with caution.

She said weakly, "Actually, he knows everything, but he still wants to use me."

She suddenly didn't want to help him anymore.
