After rebirth, the empress was spoiled by the emperor's uncle like a little girl

Gradually, the moon rose to the zenith.

The ground was covered with silver frost, and the patrol team took turns holding torches.

In the cabin on the third floor, the curtains beside the bed moved automatically without wind.

The thin black shadow remained motionless.

Chu Wu silently gripped the knife tighter and held his breath.

At the same time, A Bao was held in Xuanyuan Fengran's arms and was unaware of what was happening outside the closet. He only heard the rustling footsteps suddenly stop.

And Xuanyuan Fengran's hoarse and low voice fell into her ears.

"Don't open your eyes without my permission."

He instructed her patiently, and she nodded seriously, but she was secretly calculating in her heart.

What is the Emperor planning to do?

Suddenly, Chu Wu screamed shrilly, breaking the silence in the room.

A Bao tightly grasped Xuanyuan Fengran's sleeves: "Uncle, save them quickly!!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Wu screamed in fear again.

A vine cage suddenly fell in front of the bed, and like a hunting weapon, it directly trapped the thin black shadow that tried to assassinate Chu Wu in the vine cage.

The more the thin black shadow struggled, the longer the thorns on the edge of the vine cage grew.

It was unbreakable, but the thin black shadow struggled hard.

The spike was irritated and became as sharp as a knife.

The thin black shadow was stabbed deeply and blood gushed out.

In the darkness, A Bao, holding Xuanyuan Fengran's hand, groped his way out of the closet.

But Chu Wu threw herself into his arms.

"Po Po! It's him! It's him! It's him!"

Hearing the crying voice, A Bao patted Chu Wu's back worriedly and comforted her: "Don't worry, don't worry, I'm here."

"Even if I fail, my uncle Feng Ran will back me up."

"My uncle Feng Ran will definitely be able to defeat that pretending to be a ghost and asking for a beating."

However, ever since she accidentally pushed the young spy into the sea, Chu Wu, who had always been fearless, often panicked due to guilt.

Moreover, being born in the Chuyue region where people believed in ghosts and gods, Chu Wu was afraid of demons and monsters.

At this moment, Chu Wu seemed to regard A Bao as a talisman.

So, with Chu Wu's hands tightly grasped, A Bao had no choice but to stay where he was, continuing to comfort Chu Wu while waiting for his uncle Feng Ran to light the candles in the cabin guest rooms.

"Abao, look at me." Xuanyuan Fengran said hoarsely.

A Bao couldn't wait to open her eyes and look in the direction of the sound. Under the light of the warm candlelight, the tough and cold black-robed emperor uncle rubbed her head.

"We caught that 'ghost'."

"Really?"

Following his gaze, she saw a thin black figure trapped in a vine cage.

However, the black shadow was revealed by the light.

It turned out to be the boy who fell into the sea.

A Bao was shocked to find out that the boy was not dead.

The boy's eyes were filled with horror, and he seemed even more caught off guard than Po.

Their eyes met, and there was a strange silence for a while.

A Bao turned around and looked at the black-robed uncle: "Open the vine cage."

Before negotiating, you have to show some goodwill.

Xuanyuan Fengran did not stop him. He opened the vine cage as he was told and counted to three silently.

Sure enough, the boy turned around and tried to run.

However, the boy underestimated that he was facing the Man-Slayer King.

A silver light flashed, and the sleeve arrow hit the young man's right shoulder, splashing blood everywhere.

The young man screamed, his whole body limp, one step away from the door.

Chu Wu shouted anxiously: "Don't kill him!"

The boy looked thin and haggard, and seemed quite lonely.

Ah Bao looked at him and couldn't bear it: "I won't kill him."

As she spoke, she looked at her uncle Feng Ran.

The black-robed uncle casually flicked his sleeves and took away the silver thread on the boy's right ankle.

Silver thread can cut iron like mud and kill people with one blow.

If the young man really stepped out of the room, his right wrist would be broken and he would die from the poison.

According to rumors, the Man-Slaughter King was meticulous and ruthless, which made Chu Wu feel cold.

Fearing that something unexpected might happen, she hurriedly spoke to persuade him to stay, "No matter what the reason is, I believe you have your own difficulties. The princess is here, if you are willing to tell me the truth, I, Chu Wu, swear that as a token of apology, I will definitely ask the princess to help you solve your predicament."

The boy still remembers that he was bullied by Fat Xiaoba and it was Chu Wu who saved him.

I also remember that when he was imprisoned in the prison cell on the ship, it was Chu Wu who brought him dinner to visit him.

The few acts of kindness eventually made the boy come back.

"Sister Chu, are you really willing to help me?"

"I swear, I do."

A Bao silently handed the medicine box in his hand to Chu Wu.

Chu Wu understood and bandaged the boy's wound.

After a long silence, the boy finally stopped bleeding.

Po slowly probed, "Who are you?"

The young man raised his eyes timidly and was about to speak.

A Bao reminded embarrassedly: "Speak Mandarin, I don't understand the ancient Chuyue language."

The boy's face turned pale as he murmured, "I am my mother's child."

"He is also from the Pei family, a surviving warrior."
