At this moment, Ji Yunshu still couldn't figure out who wanted to see her.
Why did they choose such a remote place?!
But one thing was certain: the other party wouldn't want her life.
Moreover, they wouldn't harm her!
She paused for a moment, then followed those people into the pitch-black forest in front of her.
As soon as they entered the forest, the cold wind blew past them. It sounded like the howling of a wolf, causing her hair to stand on end.
Ji Yunshu felt even colder.
She couldn't help but hug her arms.
She didn't dare to be distracted. Even if the other party wouldn't harm her, she had to remain vigilant.
Just in case!
After walking for a while, the man carrying the lantern turned around to look at her. "Miss Ji, don't be afraid. We'll arrive soon."
The man seemed to have read her mind, so he comforted her.
Ji Yunshu nodded and asked, "But, who are you people? Who is your master? "
"It's not convenient to say now. We'll arrive soon. When you see my master, you'll naturally know."
They just kept their mouths shut!
It was as if it was a big secret.
Ji Yunshu couldn't pry anything from their mouths.
So, she let it go.
She continued to cautiously follow them.
Not long after, they arrived at a bamboo forest.
The winter bamboo rustled in the cold wind, making a sound like a rattlesnake.
It was full of danger.
It was also somewhat frightening.
But they didn't seem to have any intention of stopping. They walked straight inside.
It seemed like they had been here many times.
They were familiar with the path.
Ji Yunshu hugged her arms tighter and slowly walked forward. After walking for less than twenty meters, she saw a glimmer of light not far away.
Under the winter night, it seemed especially warm and safe.
Could it be that the place they were going to was there?
Soon after, they passed through the forest, and a bamboo house stood in front of them.
It was very big.
It was also very well hidden. Ordinary people wouldn't be able to find this place.
The door of the bamboo house was tightly shut. A few lonely lanterns were hanging outside, swaying in the wind.
The man pushed the door open. "Miss Ji, please come in."
She looked inside and saw a screen in front of her.
She couldn't see anything.
Bewildered, she walked in, while the people who had led her here waited outside.
Ji Yunshu looked around the room. The objects inside were all woven from bamboo, and the bamboo shelves inside were hung with white muslin. It looked very leisurely and peaceful. If one stayed here, it would indeed make one's mood exceptionally pleasant.
However, he did not discover anyone, nor did he discover anything out of the ordinary.
Who on earth wants to see me?
She walked to the back of the bamboo house.
There was a rockery in the middle of the courtyard at the back. Clear water flowed over it. The clear water reflected the lanterns in the courtyard and shone brightly.
On the ground of the courtyard, there was a road paved with smooth stones.
She continued to walk along the stone path.
In the end, he saw a pavilion!
There was a white veil hanging outside the Square Pavilion. The veil swayed slightly in the cold wind, and one could vaguely see two people sitting opposite each other inside.
She approached slowly, her feet making a noise on the stones.
This alerted the people inside.
The two shadows inside stood up at the same time and came out.
Ji Yunshu stood at the same spot, watching curiously.
Until the veil was slowly lifted by someone.
Only then did she see the two people clearly.
Her eyes widened in astonishment.
"Third … Third Master?"
Third Master Hou Liao!
Her voice was filled with disbelief.
And the person beside Third Master was actually the Marquis of the Southern Kingdom!
What … what was going on?
Third Master looked at the surprised Ji Yunshu, and his eyes couldn't help but moisten. He also called out happily and excitedly, "Yunshu."
Ji Yunshu's gaze lingered on the two people in front of her for a long time.
"Why … are you here? What is going on? "
"I will tell you slowly!"
"Tell me? What should you tell me? "Ji Yunshu took a few steps back.
At this moment, no matter how stupid she was, no matter how unclear she was, she should have figured out the reason behind it!
Third Master and the Marquis of the Southern Kingdom?
Third Master and Cha He?
The Huyi civil war?
The Marquis' biological sister?
The former Queen?
There were too many coincidences in all of this …
The Marquis of the Southern Kingdom looked at Ji Yunshu with eyes full of love, sadness, guilt … and even more mixed emotions.
But most of all, he missed her!
He staggered towards Ji Yunshu. His footsteps felt like he was walking on the tip of a knife. Every step was so painful that he couldn't breathe!
Ji Yunshu stared at him.
Her heart felt like it was being squeezed into a ball.
The Marquis of the Southern Kingdom's eyes were red, and his voice was choked with emotion as he asked her, "Aren't you looking for that person called Cha He?"
At that moment, Ji Yunshu couldn't help but feel a lump in her throat!
Her throat felt like it was being choked by something, and even breathing gradually became difficult.
Because she had already guessed it!
And she was even more determined!
Until the Marquis of the Southern Kingdom personally said, "The person you are looking for … is me!"
Ugh!
Ji Yunshu staggered backwards, feeling her head heavy and her feet light.
As her body leaned to the side, a hand suddenly supported her shoulder.
Her thin body was encircled by a chest.
A familiar smell rushed to the tip of her nose. She didn't need to turn her head to know who this sturdy chest belonged to.
Jing Rong came in a little later than her, so he had heard the Marquis of the Southern Kingdom's words.
At this moment, he could clearly feel Ji Yunshu's body trembling.
That trembling wasn't fear!
It was surprise!
…
At the city gates.
Lian Que and the others watched as the coffin containing Young Master Lin was smoothly transported out of the city gates before they left the city.
Inside the carriage.
They didn't know what Lian Que was planning.
Bai Yin and Lang Po were extremely vigilant.
Along the way, the carriage didn't use the main road, but took small paths instead.
Lian Que, on the other hand, stared at Bai Yin with an indescribable expression.
The space between his brows tightened.
That kind of gaze was baffling to anyone who saw it.
Finally, Jing Rong got out of the carriage and sat on the board outside.
As soon as he came out.
Lang Po moved closer to Bai Yin's ear.
With a strange tone, he asked, "Did you notice?"
Bai Yin opened the curtains and peered into the dark forest outside. She asked, "This is a mountain forest. What can we find?"
"I don't know how to talk about that!"
'Huh?'
Bai Yin turned her head and looked at him strangely. "Could it be that you are talking about those assassins?"
"No!"
"Then what is it? Can't you explain it all at once? "Bai Yin was the most impatient person.
Listening to Lang Po's strange words, her heart was in a bad mood.
Lang Po looked at Lian Que through the curtains and said, "Didn't you notice? That guy has been staring at you since we got on the carriage."
