The heroine Jiangshan

Chapter 204 Night of the Grassland ([-])

"You misunderstood the person." The leader frowned and said, "Didn't you say that you haven't seen her a few times at all? Besides, you haven't seen her for several years, right?"

"No, no, it's her."

Yun Baoling nodded, fearing that the leader would not believe him.

"Baoling has been very familiar with the appearance of that lowly maid since she was a child. Even if she is a few years older now, she is still the same, but she has some tricks on her face. But she has a feature that she may not even have herself. Noticed."

"what?"

The leader began to be a little interested, and looked at the ordinary-looking barbarian girl downstairs from a distance.

"Her ears are very pointed, but the earlobes are drop-shaped. These ears are pointed at the top and round at the bottom... Among the people Baoling knows, she is the only one like this."

There is an old saying that the person who knows you best is not your friend, but your enemy, which is deeply reflected in Yun Ruochen and Yun Baoling.

Even Yun Ruochen herself didn't care about the shape of her ears, but she never thought that someone would imprint all of her looks deeply in her heart.

Many times, hate is more powerful than love, especially the hate of women, which will brew the most violent and strongest poison.

Yun Ruochen, who was a little tired from peeping in the dark, hardly felt anything.She yawned after she was full, rubbed her eyes and asked Nie Shen in a low voice, "Where are we going to sleep tonight?"

For the past few days, they have all lived in their own tents.But there seems to be an inn in the mules and horses collection, maybe we can stay in a brick and stone house to rest tonight?

"Ruochen," Nie Shen wouldn't call her a princess when she was out, "Let's buy the things we need first, replenish the clean water, and rest by the gem lake."

That's what it means to continue living in tents... Well, Yun Ruochen shrugged, saying that it's best to be cautious when going out, and Nie Shen was right.Living in an inn with unfamiliar terrain and environment, surrounded by foreigners wearing all kinds of weapons, it is safer to live in a tent with your family.

"Master, it's her, so you can't be wrong."

Yun Baoling gritted her teeth, with a malicious gleam in her eyes.That shrugging movement was not uncommon when she was a child. Every time she met Yun Ruochen in the palace and provoked her, Yun Ruochen would shrug and turn away as if nothing had happened, which made her teeth itch with hatred. But there is nothing I can do.

Yun Ruochen, if there is a way to heaven, if you don’t go, you will come if there is no way to hell!Although I don't know why I saw you here... But, I will never let you return to the capital alive!

"Master, this is a good time to get rid of that lowly maid. The emperor is very dependent on this lowly maid. Once she dies, the emperor might die of anger. At that time... the court is in chaos, and we can take this opportunity Have you recruited believers again?"

"Humph."

The leader cast a cold glance at Yun Baoling and warned her not to talk too much.Yun Baoling hurriedly shut up, but her eyes never left Yun Ruochen who was in the distance.

Even though the leader stopped Yun Baoling from continuing, he really listened to what she said, and felt it made sense.

That's right, if this little girl can be killed, it will indeed be very beneficial to the reconstruction of the Destiny Sect.Only in troubled times is a good opportunity for the development of their "holy religion".

Few people have heard of Meng Guhong, the leader of Destiny.

On the one hand, it was because the Destiny Cult itself protected the identity of the leader very closely, and most of the time he would only directly command elder-level subordinates.

Fifteen years ago, the former leader of Tianming Sect died violently in internal fighting. As the second disciple, Meng Guhong finally killed all the other brothers and became the new leader, but he also planted endless troubles for his future. .

The third elder didn't accept him in his heart, originally he was the senior brother who favored him, but later he surrendered to him due to the situation.In the ten years that followed, the sect split into several factions that fought continuously, and Meng Guhong, the leader of the sect, never lived a single day in peace.

A few years ago, his magic skills hit a bottleneck, and he almost went astray and went mad.He had to retreat for half a year, and when he left, he found out that King Shu, who had been well arranged to rebel, had died halfway, and one of the three elders had also died.

This was a plan he had painstakingly arranged for several years, but it was completely destroyed. It also caused the imperial court to encircle and suppress many teaching circles of the Tianming Sect. Many congregants and middle-level leaders were captured and disposed of by the imperial court.The power of the Destiny Sect has been greatly reduced since then.

Meng Guhong still didn't give up, trying to find another breakthrough to overthrow the Qing Dynasty's rule.Finally, he discovered that King Cheng is a very good pawn.

At that time, Yun Baoling, the daughter of King Cheng, was sent to him as a hostage, and was taught by several fairies.Regarding Yun Baoling, Meng Guhong's plan is to train her to become the future leader of the Tianming Sect.

In the future, when King Cheng really succeeds in snatching the throne and Yun Baoling becomes a "princess", she will be able to play a greater role.

Unexpectedly, the Spring Hunting Rebellion, which had exhausted all the strength of the Destiny Sect, still failed to kill the prince at that time and the current emperor, and let him escape!

Until now, Meng Guhong still couldn't figure it out, where did the prince's party invite such a brilliant warlock to induce Tianlei to set up an illusion array, and delay the chasing soldiers of the Tianming sect for a long time?

Just a little bit!The Destiny Sect is almost on the verge of success!
After a year or two of hard work, King Cheng's rebellion still ended in defeat.

The three elders died one after another, and the hidden stakes of the Destiny Sect were cleared one by one and slowly pulled up.

Meng Guhong watched the Destiny Sect fall into the trough with his own eyes, he was angry and hated at the same time, his anger caused his old illness in the past, and the true energy in his body once again violently attacked the heart and lungs, and he almost died.

In desperation, he had no choice but to retreat outside the customs again.

Not long after leaving the customs, Meng Guhong discovered that even Yun Baoling, who was originally the most obedient and obedient, had used the only hidden stake of the Destiny Sect in Beijing without telling him, and provoked Yun Ruochen to fight with the Beishang Gang!

Stupid, it's obviously not the time to activate it!

Why don't these people let him worry about it time and time again?
If it weren't for his lack of manpower, Yun Baoling would definitely not be able to survive now with his past temperament.It was only when Meng Guhong realized sadly that maybe Yun Baoling also realized where his bottom line was, that's why he was so bold...

However, after repeated failures, a chance to stand up successfully came before his eyes - if that woman is really Yun Ruochen!

Meng Guhong thought that he knew Yun Ruochen, the princess of Huarong, very well.

Whether it was the information collected from various parties or Yun Baoling's dictation, he firmly remembered the name Yun Ruochen.

But in reality, the Yun Ruochen that Meng Guhong "knows" and the real Yun Ruochen are far apart.All the information he has access to is nothing more than the masks that Yun Ruochen displays in front of people.

In Meng Guhong's eyes, Yun Ruochen is a very smart and ambitious woman, and perhaps also has a good ability to serve as a servant.Among noble girls, it is not bad to have such a rare talent.

It's just that he doesn't know that what's really scary about Yun Ruochen isn't her strength and domineering, but also her determination... What's scary about her lies in the powerful power she possesses and the people around her.

Nie Shen, Ye Shenyan, Zhao Xuan, Gu Che, Chu Qingbo, and Ji Jianing...

Each of these people can act alone, plus the spies of Tingyulou all over the world, the wealth and power of the wealthy clan in the southeast, and even the many scholars who Chu Qingbo can influence, they are all forces that cannot be ignored—— But it was completely ignored by Meng Guhong.

Yun Ruochen played one hole card after another, even her enemies didn't know where the bottom line of her ability was.

Underestimating Yun Ruochen's ability and the followers around her, Meng Guhong decided to take Yun Baoling's suggestion and kill these three people.

Killing the wrong one doesn't cost him anything, does it?

He brought Yun Baoling to Luomaji today, because he wanted to communicate with a hidden stake here, and pass some instructions to the pass through the followers of this hidden stake.

Now that the talents of the Destiny Sect are withered, and there are too few people available, he can only do so.But because of this, meeting Yun Ruochen and his party was really... an unexpected surprise.

"Call Asuo, let Asuo follow them."

Meng Guhong gave instructions to Yun Baoling.

Yun Baoling was ecstatic, but didn't dare to show it, and hurriedly turned around and went to another room to find his subordinates to arrange tonight's actions.

Taking a sip of the strong wine unique to the grassland, Meng Guhong squinted his long and narrow eyes, and looked down, just in time to see Yun Ruochen and the other three had finished their meal and left.

Hmph... only two followers?

If it's really that Princess Huarong, she is too bold!
But...he had to capture her alive first, and force him to find out the secret of her coming to the grassland before he considered whether to kill her.Maybe it's a good idea to keep her as a hostage...

Yun Ruochen and Ye Shenyan had enough to eat and drink, and each led a horse, leisurely watching Nie Shen speak proficient nonsense to trade with people in the market.

Although it was already night, travelers with torches were still exchanging various supplies in the market.

Nie Shen spent a lot of money to supply all the food, salt, medicine, and tools they needed, and picked up three more good horses, and transferred them, the three tired pony in the pass.

Before the moon approached the mid-heaven, they had already left the center of the mules and horses far away, and came to the long-known gem lake.

Gemstone Lake is worthy of its name, just like a transparent gemstone inlaid on the grassland, nourishing the people of one side.

By the lake, there are already large and small caravans and travelers' tents scattered.They found a leeward place with few people. Nie Shen and Ye Shenyan quickly set up the tent, while Yun Ruochen went to the lake to freshen up.

Although I really want to take a bath... Forget it, find the core of the magic circle, return to the capital, and then take it easy.Right now, it is more important to seize all the time to rest and restore physical strength!

Yawning, Yun Ruochen ignored the beautiful night view by the gemstone lake, and returned to his tent with his braids and a bucket of clear water.

Even she didn't realize that tonight, she was destined not to get the sleep she expected.
