In the early morning of Jianzhang Palace, Li Zichou was awakened by the sound of birdsong.

Rather than waking up, it's better to say that she wasn't much asleep at all.

Yesterday's assassination was like a thunderbolt hitting her heart, making her realize that the important plot points cannot be avoided, and the assassination will definitely happen.

No, it has already happened.

Although she was unharmed, it was precisely because of this that she was afraid all night, afraid that someone would sneak in and stab her in the middle of the night.

Li Zifu always had a premonition that yesterday's backstabbing was just a warning, and the real action should be yet to come—either today or tomorrow.

She was lying on the bed, looking at the top of the bed covered with gauze, and there was the sound of even breathing from her side.

Li Zichou turned his head to look, Bai Qingyang was sleeping soundly in her arms with his pillow on her left arm.

It rained last night, with a steady patter, but no thunder. Bai Qingyang was only stressed by the thunder and lightning, and at night he obediently hugged himself to sleep, not as uncomfortable as the last time he strangled Li Zifu.

That thunderstorm night must be really scary.

If they can live in peace like this forever, can it change the tragic death of the cannon fodder villain?

But...if important plot points cannot be avoided...

Back to square one again...

If the law of causality can really be forcibly changed by the plot, if the assassination is really written by Yang Dejin...

No, how could she miss Yang Dejin so much, Yang Dejin would never do anything to herself no matter what...

... won't you?

Li Zichou's mind was in a mess, she didn't sleep well, and after waking up, she started to think wildly, and at this moment she actually felt some physical headaches.

She urgently needs some clear clues, otherwise, she can't even grasp her own destiny.

"Hey..." Li Zichou sighed, and pinched his eyebrows with his right hand.

"Mmm..." The person in his arms moved, and Bai Qingyang's eyelashes trembled slightly, "Mmm... reward..."

Li Zichou spoke in an angry voice, and asked cautiously, "Sorry, did I wake you up?"

Bai Qingyang groaned for a while, ignored Li Zizhi, but moved his face closer.

"Aren't you awake?" Li Zichou whispered in her ear, "Then let's sleep a little longer."

Bai Qingyang snorted heavily, and then replied in a hoarse voice: "I'm awake."

Li Zichou: "Get up?"

"It's not daylight yet."

"Go on to sleep then."

"You have to sleep too."

"Ok."

Receiving Li Zichou's response, Bai Qingyang stretched out his hands and hugged Li Zichou's waist. In order to make her hug more comfortable, Li Zichou turned his body slightly.

With his right hand on the top of her hair, Bai Qingyang sank into a small but reassuring embrace, and soon fell asleep again.

Maybe it was because of the warm and soft jade in his arms, or maybe it was because Li Zichou was so exhausted. Hearing Bai Qingyang's even rhythmic breathing, he also felt sleepy and fell asleep.

//

An hour passed, it was dawn, and Qiuhun ushered in the second day.

The rest time was not long, but when Li Zichou woke up again, she was not as confused and helpless as before, as if she had suddenly figured out something, she felt that the battery was sufficient and the signal was full.

If she wants to turn passive into active, it won't work to just sit and wait, she has to take the initiative and come to lure the snake out of the hole.

She wants to see who is behind the scenes, and she also wants to figure out the rules of the world in this book.

Today, she is going to take it easy, abandon the prime minister and ministers and go to the deep mountains, deliberately revealing flaws, just waiting for someone with a heart to show up, she knows that those gutter mice will definitely not miss this opportunity.

It's just that this proposal was rejected by Zhou Huaijin.

"No!" Zhou Huaijin said a little excitedly, "It's too dangerous, Your Majesty, the person who shot the arrow in the back has not been found, you are undoubtedly driving sheep into the tiger's mouth!"

"Master Zhou is right. We can just find the assassin. Your Majesty, you don't need to take this risk." Chen Feng also persuaded, "It's easy to have accidents in the mountains, and you can't reduce the number of followers."

Facing the anxious persuasion of the two, Li Zishou seemed very calm: "That's the only way. If you miss the opportunity of Autumn Hunting, it will be even more difficult to lure the assassin to show up in the future."

Zhou Huaijin: "But you don't have to go out in person. The Dasheng court cannot live without a monarch. In any case, the humble ministers cannot just watch His Majesty die!"

Li Zishou: "You..."

Seeing that the atmosphere between the monarch and his ministers became sharper, Chen Feng quickly interjected: "Isn't there Lu Xiaoying? Can't we let her be the bait instead of Your Majesty?"

Li Zichou dismissed: "No, if something really happens to me, Lu Xiaoying needs to mediate in the palace instead of me."

Zhou Huaijin: "...?"

Is the one-to-one perfect double he found for Li Zifu specially for her? !

Zhou Huaijin was so angry that he gritted his teeth, he pointed at Li Zishou presumptuously: "You are putting the cart before the horse, have you ever thought about the consequences?!"

Li Zichou was silent, it seemed that he didn't intend to explain.

Still the same sentence, it is a blessing not a disaster, and it is a disaster that cannot be avoided. If the assassination is the plot where Li Zichou is destined to go, then it is useless to just escape.

Only when she takes the initiative to meet the plot, can she find a breakthrough.

She was also unwilling to let Lu Xiaoying suffer the innocent disaster instead of her. Her original intention in finding a substitute was never to let this person die for her.

What's more... Li Zichou didn't want to give up her life, she was going for the real body of the assassin.

After so many days of deployment, she imagined countless possibilities, and she also left a way out for herself, and it was not a whim to propose that she would take the risk.

Li Zichou is not ready to send it at this juncture, she has her own plan.

Zhou Huaijin was in a fit of anger, and Li Zichou wanted to say something to ease the atmosphere.

"Huaijin..."

"Remuneration?" Bai Qingyang lifted the felt curtain of the main tent at this moment, interrupting Li Zifu's speech.

Li Zichou was slightly surprised, walked over and asked, "Qing Yang, why are you here?"

She didn't hear what she said to Zhou Huaijin and Chen Feng just now, did she?

Bai Qingyang looked inside the tent, and saw the chief assistant of the cabinet and the queen's personal guards who were both speechless.

"I came here just now to look for you, and I heard there seemed to be arguing here. There was no one in the palace outside, so I thought something had happened..." Bai Qingyang frowned worriedly, "Chou, are you arguing with someone?"

"Oh..." Li Zishou subconsciously glanced in Zhou Huaijin's direction, "No, I was just chatting about something."

Zhou Huaijin knew that his voice was too loud, he pursed his lips, and turned his eyes away knowingly.

Bai Qingyang looked at Zhou and Chen dubiously: "Really..."

"Qing Yang, what is your business with me?" Li Zichou quickly changed the subject.

"It's nothing, I just wanted to come and urge you." Bai Qingyang replied, "Look, I've already changed my clothes."

It was still the crimson Hu suit embroidered with birds and birds. It seemed that she was looking forward to today's hunt.

But Li Zifu had to pour cold water on her: "About this...Qing Yang, you should not go hunting today."

Bai Qingyang was taken aback for a moment, then dissatisfied: "Why?"

"It rained last night, and the roads in the mountains are slippery. I'm afraid of encountering mudslides or something."

Bai Qingyang did not accept this reason: "The water and soil of Shanglin Garden are well maintained, and such a situation will not happen."

"That's not okay, the mountains are already dangerous, I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you." Li Zishou didn't intend to give in, "Besides, you don't have to go."

Zhou Huaijin sneered silently from behind: You still know that the mountains are dangerous...

Seeing this, Chen Feng poked him once, signaling him not to be so blatant.

Bai Qingyang: "Then you've all gone, you left me alone in the monastery?"

"You can go back to Jianzhang Palace if you don't want to stay in the monastery. If you feel bored, you can go to the grassland for a walk. In short, don't go to the mountains."

"Why do you have to go into the mountains?"

"...I have a reason to go into the mountains."

"What reason?"

Li Zichou was silent, as expected, Bai Qingyang was not so easy to fool.

The reason, of course, is that mountains and forests are the most suitable for hiding and ambushes, and they are also the most vulnerable to ambushes and assassinations.

She couldn't let Bai Qingyang take this risk.

"To... find wild geese."

"Ah?" Bai Qingyang was slightly taken aback.

"Didn't you say you want wild geese? I want to go into the mountains to look for them. If I find them, I'll shoot them down and send them to you." Li Zifu lied without changing his expression.

Xu Shi didn't expect her to say that, Bai Qingyang looked at the two people inside with a guilty conscience, and felt a little ashamed.

"That, that's fine." Bai Qingyang finally compromised, and in order to hide his embarrassment, he said aggressively, "You'd better call back, don't make me wait too long!"

"Okay, I'll do it as soon as possible." Li Zichou smiled, "Go and change your clothes, wait for me to come back."

Huh - finally coaxed.

Bai Qingyang looked at Li Zichou twice more, didn't say anything else, only told him to be safe, and left.

After the confirmer left, Li Zichou turned to look at Zhou Huaijin, while Chen Feng stood aside, hesitating to speak.

Li Zichou: "Whether you put the cart before the horse or don't care about the consequences, this is what I have to do. In a word, can you help me?"

She let go of her illusory status and figure, just to seek answers from the two of them.

Zhou Huaijin was stunned, recalling that day in the prison, this person also communicated with him in this manner.

Chen Feng moved over, and Li Zichou heard her say: "As the queen's personal guard, this is what I must do. Chen Feng is at your majesty's disposal."

Li Zichou nodded, and then looked at Zhou Huaijin.

"I only have one question, if something unexpected happened to you, what should Dasheng's rule do?"

"Master Zhou..."

"If things really come to that point..." Li Zichou knew that this question could only be answered by her, "I hope you can support Bai Qingyang as the new king."

"what?"

Now not only Zhou Huaijin, but even Chen Feng looked at Li Zichou in surprise.

"I hope Bai Qingyang will rule the Central Plains."

"I understand, but..."

"You think she's not good enough?"

"...You want me to be a traitor and a sinner of Li Sheng Dynasty."

"Is it important? So what if Dasheng Jiangshan is not surnamed Li? You are not someone who cares about such things."

"..."

"Zhou Huaijin?"

"You said you wanted to change my official uniform into purple, I remember it all." Zhou Huaijin answered the wrong question and dropped this sentence, and paid the master's bill over Li Zi.

Chen Feng: "Your Majesty, Mr. Zhou..."

Li Zichou: "It's fine." She understood that Zhou Huaijin agreed.

A promise is a promise, but the condition is that she must come back safely.

His temperament is really strong, and the way of expressing concern is also very special.

"It's time to go hunting, let's get ready."

"Chen Feng complies."

Zhou Huaijin stayed at the monastery to handle some affairs for Li Zifu, which played a role in controlling the overall situation. Once there was an emergency in the mountains, he had to respond quickly from the periphery.

Chen Feng was transferred from Shanglinyuan Palace to protect the Queen with several personal guards.

"Your Majesty, take this." After Li Zichou got on the horse, Zhou Huaijin suddenly appeared and handed her a golden dragon sword.

"Bows and arrows are strenuous, and this is used for self-defense."

The young Shoufu had a stern face, and he still looked a little unhappy, but he had restrained his temper.

Li Zichou saw it, and she happily took it after thanking her.

"Where is Lu Xiaoying?"

"You don't let her follow, she should have returned to Jianzhang Palace."

"If Jianzhang Palace is guarded by her, then the monastery will be handed over to you."

Zhou Huaijin nodded and returned to the big tent.

Li Zichou was worried about Bai Qingyang, and before leaving, he went to the queen's tent for rest.

Xiao Le stood in front of the queen's tent, with her hands in her hands, her expression tense.

"Is the queen in there?" Li Zichou walked behind her and asked abruptly.

Xiao Le was taken aback, and quickly turned her head to salute: "My servant has seen His Majesty."

Li Zichou waved his hands, and asked again: "Is your lady in there?" As he spoke, he wanted to lift the blanket and enter the tent.

"Hey, Your Majesty, Miss, it's inconvenient for her now..." Xiao Le hurriedly stepped sideways to block Li Zichou.

"Inconvenient? What is she doing?"

"Miss is changing clothes."

"They're all women, what are you afraid of?" Li Zichou said and wanted to bypass Xiao Le.

Xiao Le moved another step to block it again: "You two are both women, but these adults outside..."

"Oh..." Li Zichou glanced at the followers outside the tent, and then looked suspiciously at Xiao Le, "Then why are you so nervous?"

"No." Xiao Le denied it firmly, and then whispered, "Miss just came back, she seems a little emotional."

Li Zi gave a grunt, and took his hand back.

It was because he didn't let her go hunting together.

Just as he was thinking, Bai Qingyang's voice sounded from inside the tent: "Xiao Le?"

Xiao Le shouted: "Miss, Your Majesty is here."

"Your Majesty?" Bai Qingyang repeated, "Hold on a moment, Your Majesty, my concubine will come out immediately."

Li Zichou said quickly: "It's okay, Qingyang, I'm going into the mountain, so don't come out."

"Huh? But..."

"If you're bored of waiting, I'll ask those old guys from the Imperial Academy to play chess with you. I'll go first." She was afraid that Bai Qingyang would regret it and insist on following after he came out, which would be troublesome.

After dealing with Bai Qingyang, he still didn't forget to tell Xiao Le in a low voice: "Take care of your young lady, don't let her come with you."

After Xiao Le responded with trepidation and trepidation, Li Zifu felt relieved and headed towards the mountain with a group of personal guards.

The author has something to say:

Zhou Huaijin: The ministers are about to fight to the death, why did your majesty surrender first?
