Jia Huan and Mo Lian hid in this secret cave for two full days.During this time, at least three groups of people were heard walking over their heads.Whenever they heard the sound of "creaking" footsteps, the two of them quietly settled their postures, ready to rush to fight to the death as soon as they were discovered.At such times, the air was always so tense, and even the heartbeats of the two could be heard clearly in the cave, and Jia Huan always felt that the figure of the heartbeat would attract enemies.Fortunately, there was no danger, and no one seemed to notice that there was such a natural hiding place under their feet.

Fewer and fewer people searched, and the number of people passing by the cave gradually decreased, until the next afternoon, they found that they hadn't heard a single footstep.Mo Lian counted the food and water they had left, and knew that the two of them needed to go out.Even if there was enough food and water, the melting snow in the past two days made this cave no longer suitable for hiding.Jia Huan had no doubts about this.So taking advantage of the darkness, the two came out of the cave.

In fact, the mountains at night are not safe. Many ferocious beasts prey at night, but if they want to escape smoothly, they must avoid the killers who are still hunting them.

Thankfully, wolves do not appear to be on the mountain.Jia Huan never wanted to be bitten by a wolf again.The two of them just stumbled and walked down the mountain, and they had to pay attention to the movement around them all the time.Although it is not as clear as daytime, but the general direction should be correct.

When they were about to reach the bottom of the mountain, the two saw the flames not far away, and the sounds of fighting that were especially obvious in the silent mountain forest, and they stopped at the same time.

Mo Lian and Jia Huan looked at each other, and decided to find a place where they could see the mountain and wait and see what happened.

The two quietly walked closer, and climbed up the tree neatly.Looking from a high position, he really had a clear view of the fighting at the foot of the mountain.

"It's Lian Yun." Mo Lian whispered in Jia Huan's ear, which made Jia Huan feel itchy, and moved his butt uncomfortably, "They are still at the bottom of the mountain after all."

Jia Huan thought for a while, if Lian Yun and his troops hadn't arrived in time, they might have had another twists and turns down the mountain, he couldn't help but rejoice in his heart, and asked in a low voice, "What should we do?"

Mo Lian saw that the few killers who stayed behind to search the mountain were obviously in a weak position, so he said in relief: "It's here, it will be over soon."

As soon as Mo Lian finished speaking, the killers over there had already started their final counterattack before they were all wiped out.For some reason, seeing this, Jia Huan's heart skipped a beat, with a bad premonition.Mo Lian felt that Jia Huan beside him suddenly stiffened, and was about to ask what was going on, when he saw a killer over there looking at their hiding place from a distance, with strong hatred erupting in his eyes.Even Mo Lian couldn't help being surprised by those sharp eyes.

At this time, Jia Huan reacted very quickly, pulling Mo Lian down the tree.It's no surprise that they were in the original position on the tree, and several hidden weapons were nailed. If you observe carefully, you can find ominous bright colors flashing on the dark hidden weapons, which are obviously poisoned.

As soon as he arrived under the tree, the killer somehow got rid of Lian Yun's siege, and his figure just floated there.Jia Huan was ready, he stood in front of Mo Lian and took the blow.This killer obviously had the idea that he must drag a big man to his back today, and his moves were desperate, and the weapon was tempered somehow, after being stabbed, his whole limbs were paralyzed.The two people who have no weapons in their hands are so clumsy and miserable.

Lian Yun is not a vegetarian, seeing that he is about to rescue his master, how could he fall short.After leaving enough people to deal with the already stretched killers, he personally led a team to Mo Lian's side.

"then!"

The tacit understanding cultivated during the martial arts training with Lian Yun before was fully displayed. Jia Huan didn't look back, but caught the sword thrown by Lian Yun, and stabbed the killer's abdomen with the sword.The killer, who was already at the end of his strength, could barely dodge, but he couldn't dodge the attacks of others, and soon he was defeated.Just as he turned around to deal with Lian Yun's kill, Jia Huan sent the sword into the opponent's chest without hesitation.

This is Jia Huan's first time killing people. It's different from hurting people or hunting animals. When the blood splashed on his body, Jia Huan couldn't help shaking his hands. Except for Mo Lian who was paying attention to him, everyone else only saw him. Calmly, he pulled out the sword that was still stuck in the killer's chest.The picture of the other party falling suddenly made Jia Huan feel a little unreal.It turned out that he could do this too.

So far, all those who pursued and killed them died, and no one was left alive.It stands to reason that Lian Yun, who has been with Mo Lian for a long time, should know that it is necessary to keep the captives for interrogation, but this time he did not do so.

"See Your Highness." Lian Yun respectfully invited Mo Lian into the carriage. Lian Yun was also careful, and there was already a doctor waiting in the carriage.

"The situation in Beijing is not good. The First Prince has been placed under house arrest by the Holy Majesty, and His Highness the Second Prince has rebelled. Please wait until you get back for details. Lord Tong will explain to you in detail." Before Mo Lian got into the car, Lian Yun said a few words. Explain the current situation.Mo Lian paused, as expected, no wonder there is no need to keep alive.

The old doctor was brought over by Mr. Tong, the magistrate of Qingyun County. Although he is not like the imperial doctor in the palace, he is also a well-known doctor nearby.As soon as he got into the carriage, Mo Lian pointed to Jia Huan and said, "Show him first."

The old doctor took the pulse, then looked at the wound on Jia Huan's body, and said: "There is nothing serious, but I can't keep up with the food and lodging these few days, and I am a little bit cold. The wound is only a skin trauma, and does not involve the lungs. Just take some time to cultivate."

Hearing what the old doctor said, Mo Lian was relieved, and then asked the doctor to diagnose him.Needless to say, Mo Lian's health was even better.

After Jia Huan took a bath at the county magistrate's house and tidied himself up, he sighed slowly. The journey finally stopped temporarily.

It happened that Mo Lian had also packed up, came over and asked, "Would you like to go with me to meet the magistrate?"

Jia Huan thought for a while, and nodded regardless of his fatigue.He also heard Lian Yun's words before, the capital is so chaotic now, he also wanted to inquire about the situation of Jia's mansion by the way.It stands to reason that the Rongguo Mansion did not take a clear line, so it should not be involved, but who knows if the old lady will do something with the Ningguo Mansion.

Master Tong, the county magistrate of Qingyun County, is a young man in his early 20s with a baby face. He looks very childish, but he really doesn't look like an official.But since he can get Mo Lian's favor, it can be seen that this person is not simple.

"My lord sees Your Highness." The baby-faced Lord Tong met Li with a serious face. When he raised his head, Jia Huan saw the bruises under his eyes, which showed that he hadn't slept well these days.

"Get up," Mo Lian nodded, and his tone was much softer to Mr. Tong, "I haven't seen you in a few years, Ziqian has improved a lot."

"I can't deserve such a compliment from Your Highness," Master Tong said with a smile, with two dimples on his face, before he became serious. "Now the whole north is on alert, especially Zhili."

Mo Lian nodded, he didn't expect his good second brother to be so bold: "Let's start from the beginning."

It was only then that Tong Xun articulated everything that had happened recently.

It turned out that not long after Mo Lian got the evidence from Jiangnan, the two princes got the news from their respective subordinates.The eldest prince has always been conceited, thinking that the imperial envoys are his own people, even if there is evidence, he can cover up one thing or two.And after listening to the news from the people below, the evidence is more from the second school, so I feel relieved.So it didn't matter much, instead he triumphantly laughed at the second prince, Mo Ze.At this time, the emperor had already obtained a copy of the evidence obtained by Mo Lian from Xuan Jiawei. The things these two unfilial sons did made the old emperor fall down in anger. Then he looked at his eldest son who had no regrets. On the contrary, he was complacent and restrained his feet in a rage.This is not like the kind of innocuous restraint order given to Mo Lian. The emperor even directly scolded "unfilial and fraternal, wolf ambition" in the imperial decree. It is banned.Although this comforted Mo Ze who was upset, at the same time it made him panic even more.From Mo Ze's point of view, Mo Qing, who has no evidence, can be inexplicably convicted, so once his evidence is grasped by his father, the end will be even more miserable.So while he sent people to hunt down Mo Lian, he prepared to rebel against him.After learning the news that Mo Lian had fled to the mountain, Mo Ze couldn't wait any longer and raised his troops the next day.In other words, it has been less than a day since Mo Ze raised his troops.

Tong Xun took a sip of tea and continued, "The Holy Majesty sent people over before the Second Prince's rebellion. They will escort Your Highness back to Beijing. Do you want to see him?"

After hearing this, Mo Lian said, "Sure enough, you can't hide anything from your father. Please invite someone over here."

After a while, Jia Huan saw a familiar figure, it turned out to be Feng Ziying whom he hadn't seen for a long time.This Feng Ziying is also a wonderful person. When entering the room, the first thing he sees is not Mo Lian sitting at the head, but Jia Huan who has been avoiding him all the time.He secretly winked at Jia Huan twice, and then bowed respectfully to Mo Lian: "Your Highness, Feng Ziying."

Mo Lian's face turned black after seeing Feng Ziying's grimace at Jia Huanshi secretly as soon as he entered the door.Seeing Feng Ziying salute, he just said indifferently: "Get up." The voice was so cold that it could drop ice balls.

Jia Huan didn't want to see Feng Ziying in his heart, and he was a little gloating when he saw this, so that you don't take His Highness the Fourth Highness seriously.

Feng Ziying didn't mind either. Under Mo Lian's cold gaze, she got up as if nothing happened, and then reported: "The Holy One sent ministers to escort His Highness back to Beijing. I wonder when His Highness wants to leave?"

"Leave as soon as possible." Knowing the whole story and thinking that his father still had the energy to send someone to escort him to Beijing, Mo Lian was obviously not worried about his father's safety, but was just afraid that something might happen due to the long night and dreamy night.

Feng Ziying was obviously also capable. After Mo Lian gave the order, the whole team was already ready to go in just a stick of incense.

With a cold face, Mo Lian embraced the drowsy Jia Huan into the carriage under Feng Ziying's astonished eyes, and did not even give Feng Ziying a look.

"Go to sleep." Mo Lian patted Jia Huan and said.

After sleeping together for two nights, Jia Huan had long been used to getting along with Mo Lian like this, so he was not polite, and just slept in the carriage until the sky was dark.He even forgot to ask Feng Ziying about the situation in Jia's house.

It's almost time now, if you start on the road immediately, you can reach the capital on the same day.Mo Lian closed his eyes in the carriage, fearing that there would be another turmoil after returning to Beijing.
