The hands behind his back held an iron walnut in each palm, which made a crunching sound.
"Owner!"
Behind him, several men in black appeared like ghosts from all corners of the dense forest.
They were dressed the same as him, black from head to toe, but instead of wearing cloaks, they wore black mesh masks.
The exposed eyes are cold and seem to have no human emotions.
"How's the investigation going?" The man on the high stone still looked down at the camp under his feet, but he asked the people behind him.
The leader of the men in black took a step forward, leaned down with his hands clasped in his fists, and reported: "Reporting to the master, we have checked around. This time the Emperor of Da Qi goes on a spring hunting trip, the list of people accompanying him has been obtained."
"The Da Qi Emperor's barracks and the defense forces deployed around the barracks have also been found out."
"What happens next depends entirely on the master's instructions." The leader of the man in black said.
The cloaked man on the high stone said with satisfaction.
"Yes, you did not disappoint me." He said, his voice was a little hoarse.
It was as if the vocal cords had been severely damaged, making people feel worried about crying.
The leader in black took out a rolled piece of parchment from his body and handed it respectfully to the cloaked man's hand.
The man in the cloak shook his head, and with the bright moonlight above his head, he scanned the contents on the parchment in front of him.
Then, he closed the parchment, tilted his head slightly, and glanced at the people in black behind him.
The cloak covered most of his face, and his eyes hidden in the shadows were full of anger.
There is a scar as long as the middle finger on the face near the neck.
It was like a giant centipede clinging to his skin, twisting as he spoke, so terrifying!
"This operation is codenamed 'Net'. Pass on the order. All personnel will be on standby for the time being. Everything will follow my orders. When the time comes to close the net, we will ensure that the warehouse is full of fish and shrimp!"
"Quack quack..."
The cloaked man ordered in a deep voice, and he laughed softly.
The laughter was as shrill and hoarse as a night owl.
The mountain wind carried his voice out, and then distorted it, like an evil ghost crying at night, spreading a curse to the world.
"Yes, I obey!"
The leader in black responded, then waved his hand, and the men in black with their heads lowered behind them quietly hid in the depths of the dense forest.
The cloaked man was the only one left near the high stone.
He looked at the barracks with lights on among the tents on the slope at the foot of the mountain, with a bloodthirsty sneer on his lips.
"Brother, I'm back, quack quack..."
"Eighteen years later, I am reborn from the ashes as a phoenix."
"What you owe me, what you owe her, this time, I want to get it back, quack quack..."
He raised his hands and stood laughing wildly in the night wind.
…
"ah!"
In the barracks at the foot of the mountain, on the dragon bed, King Qi suddenly sat up from his dream.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you? Are you having a nightmare?"
The new favorite Li Guiren who was sleeping next to him hurriedly sat up and raised his hand to gently caress King Qi's back.
"roll!"
King Qi grabbed Li Guiren's slender white wrist and threw her directly under the bed.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. I deserve to die!"
Li Guiren was so frightened that she quickly fell to the ground and hit her forehead with a thud.
King Qi was on the bed, holding his head with both hands and looking pale.
"Come on, come on!"
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"
The old eunuch Xu Eunuch, who had been with King Qi for decades, hurriedly entered the barracks. When he saw the situation under the bed, he guessed a lot.
"Lord Li, there are old slaves here to serve you. Please go back to your barracks first."
Eunuch Xu said to Li Gui.
Li Guiren wanted to get up, but timidly glanced at King Qi on the bed, hesitating...
"Back off, back off!"
Prince Qi, who was on the bed, also waved his hand several times. As if she had been pardoned, Li Gui quickly got up and left the room.
Before leaving, Eunuch Xu arrived at the door of the barracks.
"Mr. Li, you are the emperor's new favorite. This opportunity is rare. I dare to give you a word of advice to Mister Li. As the saying goes, disaster comes from the mouth. If you shouldn't say, shouldn't see, or shouldn't know, try not to go there. mentioned.”
"Li Gui is very smart, so she must be able to understand what the old slave means, right?" Eunuch Xu asked.
Li Guiren was stunned for a moment, and then understood what Eunuch Xu was referring to.
"Don't worry, Eunuch Xu, I understand." She said fearfully.
"Very good, then, noble lady Li, please go back and rest first. I have to go in and serve the emperor." Eunuch Xu said.
"Yes." Li Guiren quickly turned around and left in a hurry.
When Eunuch Xu saw Lady Li walking away, he turned around and hurried back to the barracks.
He closed the door tightly and walked to the bedside.
"Your Majesty, come here, the perfume is here, please use this to refresh yourself."
Eunuch Xu took out an exquisite little bamboo bottle from a spiritual box, uncorked it and brought it to King Qi's nose.
"Is it Yang Ruoqing who paid tribute?"
Even though he had a splitting headache and everything he saw was a double image, King Qi still held his temples and panted as he asked Eunuch Xu.
Eunuch Xu nodded hurriedly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, this perfume was brought from the palace."
"Every time you have a headache, the things you use are all kept by this old slave. They are not borrowed from others." Xu Gongzheng said.
King Qi put down his guard, took the perfume bottle handed over by Eunuch Xu, and took a few sips.
This perfume can soothe the mind.
It was General Luo's wife Yang Ruoqing who happened to catch up with King Qi's headache when she came back to see the emperor.
After some inquiries, Yang Ruoqing customized this soothing and refreshing perfume for King Qi.
Facts have proved that this perfume has a significant effect on relieving King Qi's headache.
This medicine is much more effective than the medicines given by the imperial doctors, and after using it for several months, there are no side effects at all.
Therefore, King Qi used it boldly and became dependent on this perfume.
"Your Majesty, how are you feeling right now? Have you taken it easy?" Eunuch Xu stood beside the bed, his eyes not daring to leave King Qi's body for a moment.
He hunched slightly and asked cautiously.
King Qi was already lying on the big pillow, still rubbing his temples with his hands, but his face looked much better than before.
"Well, this perfume still works." King Qi said.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me for being bold. Why did you have a headache again just now?"
"Weren't you fine during dinner?" Eunuch Xu asked cautiously again.
King Qi was silent.
Just when Eunuch Xu thought he wouldn't speak again, King Qi's voice came over: "It's okay, I just had a nightmare."
Eunuch Xu said: "Dreams are all false and contrary to reality. Your Majesty, you don't need to think too much."
King Qi said: "Yes."
"Eunuch Xu, please go down and ask the Shenwu Army to strengthen the defense. Suspects and others are not allowed to approach the central barracks."
