Chapter 23 West Mountain
"Ask me? How do I know? Aren't we in your Prince Jing's mansion?" Feng Lei was still in a state of confusion, looking at Xiao Ruihan in a daze and said.

"Oh, I won't talk to you anymore!" Xiao Ruihan felt a little heartbroken, looking at Feng Lei lying there dizzy, he didn't bother to talk to him anymore.

The carriage drove on the rugged mountain road for a while, and the bumps were so severe that Feng Lei couldn't help throwing up beside the carriage, so much that even Xiao Ruihan couldn't help retching.

The carriage finally stopped, Xiao Ruihan helped Feng Lei get off the carriage, and saw the emperor helping Long Er get off the carriage in front, Long Er rubbed his eyes in a daze, saw Xiao Ruihan, and squeezed his eyes at him, It's a greeting.

"Han'er, come here!" Xiao Xiaotian saw Xiao Ruihan and Fenglei, and waved to him.

"See Father Emperor!"

"See the emperor!"

Xiao Ruihan and Fenglei stepped forward to salute, Xiao Xiaotian waved his hand to make them stand up.

Xiao Xiaotian saw the crown prince, first prince and second prince getting off the carriage behind them, and the three supported each other and walked towards them.

After saluting, Xiao Xiaotian briefly introduced the situation of Xishanzhuang to them.

"Han'er, you and General Feng are responsible for the investigation of this matter. After finding out the situation, report to me immediately! You can only report to me, and no one else can tell, understand?" Xiao Xiaotian explained his meaning to Xiao Ruihan , and then prepare to return to the palace.

"Father, what about us?" The prince stared, a little confused.

"The three of you obey Prince Jing's instructions and don't complain at all. If I hear any news about you embarrassing Han'er, I'll lock you all up in the mansion and you won't be allowed to go out for a year!" Xiao Xiaotian stared at the other three. a son.

"I must listen, I must listen!" The eldest prince happily agreed, anyway, he listened to anyone.

"Father, I am the prince!" the prince Xiao Ruiqi said a little unconvinced, the second prince was behind the prince, wearing a veil on his face, no expression could be seen.

"Prince? You are now the body to be punished. You disobeyed the order and disrespected and left the house privately. I haven't punished you yet. You still tell me that you are the prince? Take the crime and make meritorious service! If you don't want it, I will let the imperial army Send you back to the East Palace, and send the forbidden army to seal your gate?" Xiao Xiaotian said to the prince with a slight anger on his face.

"Ah? Forget it, I will listen to my fourth brother!" The prince lowered his head and muttered.

"Okay, Han'er?" Xiao Xiaotian turned his head and said to Xiao Ruihan, "Be careful in everything, and ask Miss Long'er when you encounter things you don't understand!" Xiao Xiaotian pointed to Longer.

Xiao Ruihan nodded, and smiled at Long'er, and Long'er happily jumped to Xiao Ruihan's side, holding his hand.

"I'm back in the palace. Things here must be kept secret, and no information can be revealed, you know? I have ordered the Imperial Army to isolate the entire village, and no one can get close to it!" When Xiao Xiaotian got into the carriage, he was worried. Admonish, "General Feng, please take care of the princes!"

Fenglei bowed and saluted, which was a response to the emperor's order!

The emperor glanced at the four sons worriedly, finally got into the carriage, and returned the same way with the imperial army.

The emperor's team went farther and farther, and the few people left behind looked at the deserted village and the wilderness, and were dumbfounded for a moment. Listening to the emperor's intentions, when will they find out and when will they be able to return to Fengcheng?
"Fourth brother, what should we do now?" The eldest prince twisted his chubby body, and asked beside Xiao Ruihan.

"I don't know either!" Xiao Ruihan still doesn't understand why his father made him responsible?What will he do?

"Prince Jing, why don't we go into the village and have a look?" Feng Lei suggested from the side, the eldest prince nodded repeatedly when he heard it, and the crown prince and second prince followed behind without saying a word.

"That's the only way to go, let's go to the village and have a look!" Xiao Ruihan glanced at Long Er, and she also nodded towards him.

Under the leadership of Xiao Ruihan, a group of people walked into the village.

Xishanzhuang is located at the foot of Xishan Mountain. The village is not big, and it only takes a stick of incense to walk from the beginning of the village to the end of the village.

"Brother, there is really no one here!" Xiao Ruihan held the hand of the eldest prince, looked at the empty village, and felt a little panicked in his heart.

"That's right! There's really no one there!" The eldest prince kicked a rooster under his feet to the side of the road. The rooster made a "flapping" sound, which seemed so loud in the quiet village.

"Fourth brother, where have all the people here gone?" The eldest prince stared around with one boneless eye, he was holding Xiao Ruihan's hand tightly, and his hand was sweating.

"Oh! Brother, don't hold me so tightly! I don't know either!" Xiao Ruihan pulled out his hand and gave the eldest prince a look.

"Oh, oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, brother is a little nervous!" The eldest prince apologized to Xiao Ruihan with a smile.

Long'er on the side also frowned, without saying a word, watching the surroundings vigilantly with a pair of eyes.

A group of people went around the village and checked every house, but there was no one there. Some people still had uncleaned dishes and chopsticks on the table, and some people even made the quilt for sleeping at night.

"There are no traces of fighting, nor blood!" Feng Lei told Xiao Ruihan what he saw.

"It is speculated that he disappeared in the first half of last night, right?" Xiao Ruihan expressed his opinion carefully.

"Well, it should be!" Feng Lei nodded, no one denied it.

"Long'er, did you find anything?" Xiao Ruihan asked Long'er who had been silent all this time.

Long'er shook his head, the brisk smile was no longer on his face.

"It's getting dark soon, let's find a place to spend the night!" Xiao Ruihan looked at the rest of the people.

"The Forbidden Army is setting up tents outside the village. There are strange things in this village. We'd better not spend the night here!" Feng Lei said to Xiao Ruihan.

"Yes! Be careful!" Xiao Ruihan didn't know how to do things at all, and obeyed General Feng's arrangement in everything.

"Then let's get out! Walking in this village, I feel cold all over!" The prince behind complained, turned around and walked out of the village.

"Let's go!" Feng Lei looked at the prince, shook his head, and said to Xiao Ruihan.

The tents of the Imperial Army were just simple marching tents. Although it was the first month of the lunar year, the weather was still bitingly cold. The tents could not withstand the cold at night. Everyone had to gather around the bonfire outside, wrapped in marching blankets, and sleep next to each other.

The crown prince and the second prince murmured and complained, but Xiao Ruihan turned a deaf ear to them. This is the condition, what can he do?

As the night gradually deepened, some animals howled from time to time in the mountains, but it was hard to tell what kind of animal it was.

Xiao Ruihan leaned against a tree trunk, unable to fall asleep, he was recalling the situation in the village, how could they all disappear overnight?

"Ah Han, it's foggy!" Long Er sat up beside Xiao Ruihan suddenly, and said to Xiao Ruihan.

Xiao Ruihan sat up, looked into the village, and saw that the village had been completely covered by thick fog, and the fog was rushing towards the outside of the village like a tide.

"Ah Han, run! This fog is weird!" Long Er grabbed Xiao Ruihan's hand and started running.

"General Feng, Big Brother, Second Brother, Third Brother, get up and run!" Xiao Ruihan first woke up the four people around him, and then took Long Er's hand and started running.

"Long'er, it's too late! The fog is too fast, we can't escape!" Xiao Ruihan watched as some of the imperial guards were running slowly and had been swallowed by the fog, as if they disappeared into the fog without even screaming.

"Sister Long'er, help me!" The eldest prince moved his fat body and ran to the back, and was about to be swallowed by the thick fog.

"Long'er, transform!" Xiao Ruihan suddenly had an idea and shouted at Long'er.

"Okay!" As soon as Long'er turned around, Xiao Ruihan was already sitting on Long'er's huge dragon head.

"General Feng, hurry up!" Xiao Ruihan grabbed Feng Lei who was not far away, and threw him onto the dragon's back, "Catch it!"

"Okay!" General Feng was completely stunned by what followed, and could only follow Xiao Ruihan's command mechanically.

The crown prince and the second prince climbed onto Long Er's body without waiting for Xiao Ruihan to shout.

"Long'er, hurry up and pick up elder brother!" Xiao Ruihan patted Long'er on the head.

"Okay, grab it!" Long'er swung his body and flew quickly close to the ground, and some forbidden soldiers also jumped onto Long'er's body.

"Brother!" Xiao Ruihan tightly grasped Long'er's dragon horn, stood on the dragon's head and flew towards the First Prince.

"Fourth brother, save me!" The eldest prince became more anxious and couldn't run faster. A branch under his feet tripped and he fell to the ground again. Submerged, only heard the first prince shouting in the mist, "Sister Long'er!"

Xiao Ruihan held the dragon's horn with one hand, lowered his body as low as possible, and passed by the ground, but in the end he still couldn't hold the eldest prince. He shouted angrily: "Big brother, big brother!" But there was no response, the thick fog He rushed towards them head-on.

"Long'er, be careful!" Xiao Ruihan looked at the thick fog as if he had opened his mouth wide, ready to swallow them in an instant.

I saw Long'er raised his head suddenly, like a swimming dragon rushing straight up to the sky, flying straight towards the sky along the edge of the thick fog.

"Ah..." The people on Long'er couldn't help screaming, holding on to Long'er's huge body tightly, hearing the whistling wind, the crown prince and the second prince closed their eyes tightly in fright, screaming together taller than one.

Long Er quickly climbed up and flew to a certain height. The thick fog was already below them, and Long Er straightened his body and slowly hovered in the air.

"Wow! Long'er, you are so amazing!" The eldest prince's voice suddenly came from under Long'er.

"Brother?" Xiao Ruihan was regretting that he didn't hold the eldest prince, when he suddenly heard the voice of the eldest prince, and shouted happily towards the bottom.

"Fourth brother! I'm here!" Xiao Ruihan pulled Long Er's dragon horns, leaned out, and saw that the first prince was sitting tightly on Long Er's front paws. Smiling at Xiao Ruihan yo!
