Mu Wan Yun found Jin Yu Lie and had him bring him to the Imperial Palace, personally meeting with the Emperor and meeting Chunyu Hong.

In the imperial court, the ministers were still discussing matters related to the Northern Kingdom. However, their discussions had yet to reach a conclusion.

At this time, Jin Yu Lie suddenly appeared in the middle of the hall, and everyone's eyes immediately fell on him.

"Duke Jin!"

"With the Duke of Jin here, what do I have to fear?"

Before Jin Yulai returned to the imperial capital, he had always guarded the border. With him around, the border was safe and sound, and he had a special position in the hearts of the people. This was also the reason why Chunyu Hong favored him so much, so the other ministers didn't have much of a reaction.

Jin Yulai's appearance at this time also caused Chunyu Hong's heart to fall.

"Duke Jin, do you have a good plan to retreat and win?"

"Nope." Jin Yu Lie said frankly.

These words caused an uproar within the crowd.

Chunyu Feng was the first to speak, "The great Duke of Jin, it can't be that he can't handle this matter well, right? To think that royal father trusted you so much. "

"Since the Fifth Prince is so confident, I suggest that the Fifth Prince lead the troops out to battle." There was a faint smile on his face, but it didn't reach his eyes.

Chunyu Feng's expression suddenly changed.

After the incident at the northern border, he had also sent people to investigate it. The matters there were much more complicated than he had imagined.

"Your son naturally isn't as capable as the Duke of Jin. The Duke of Jin is very familiar with matters of the border." He would not give up. The meaning behind his words was that the Duke of Jin was only fit to guard the border.

Chunyu Hong scolded, "Feng'er, if you don't have the ability, say less. "Since the Duke of Jin has appeared at this time, he should have a way out."

Jin Yu Lie said, "Right now, the situation at the border of the Northern Kingdom is unknown, so we have to understand the situation first before we make our plans."

"We sent out a thousand men, but no news came back. The news of the border guards has also only been kept in the city. Right now, with the snowstorm in the north, the situation is not looking good. "

"This humble subject recommends someone."

"Who is it? Proclaim his presence in the palace at once! "

Immediately, an attendant raised his voice.

Mu Wan Yun walked into the great hall with everyone's eyes filled with anticipation!

This was the first time she had come to this place. She looked at the towering palace, the wide palace doors, the red glazed doors, and the majesty and grandeur of the imperial family directly pouncing on her face.

The air was heavy.

This feeling was similar to her visit to the palace in her previous life. After experiencing many dynasties, the royal family was still as dignified and domineering as before.

And right now, in this palace, there really was a Son of Heaven that was in charge of the world!

Mu Yunji felt that his breathing had become somewhat obstructed.

This was the first time she felt extremely nervous. It wasn't the first time that he had met Chunyu Hong, but it was the first time that he had met him in such a sacred place!

The attendants came to welcome her, and before they entered the hall, they collected all of her weapons, including her storage ring.

When she entered the great hall, she looked at the crowd dressed in the imperial court uniform, as well as the Great Qin Tianzi, who was sitting on a bright yellow throne in the middle of the hall.

It was as if she couldn't clearly see Chunyu Hong's appearance, and could only see a dazzling yellow.

"It's her!"

"So it's her."

As soon as Mu Yun ascended to the hall, countless soft sounds of discussion could be heard.

This voice brought Mu Wan back to reality. After saluting, she stood by Jin Yulai's side. She could feel countless gazes on her. Among them, there were even two gazes that made her feel nervous as they came from the very front.

Chunyu Hong looked at Mu Yun and then looked at Jin Yu Lie, "Your suggestion is her?"

"Exactly! It's not just her. "

"How?"

"Mu Wan Yun is the eldest daughter of the previous general's house. She was selected from the Duke of Jin's house to be sent to Mount Kunlun, and she was lucky enough to become a disciple of the principal of Karakorum, Yao Ming. So her status is extraordinary, so it would be perfect for her to go to the Northern Kingdom. "

"Aren't you afraid that the Duke of Jin will be unable to return?" Someone teased him from behind.

The war between the two countries had caused this to be a custom. However, the people of the Northern Kingdom would never take this custom to heart.

Moreover, no matter how strong she was, she was just a mere woman.

Hearing that, Mu Wanyun faintly smiled and said: "Your Majesty, why don't you let this little girl try? "No matter what you say, you have to pull a mule out."

Hearing the affirmation in her words, Chunyu Hong looked at Jin Yu Lie's calmness, and knew that there shouldn't be any problems. Mu Wan Yun and Jin Yu's relationship was deep, he would never let go of her life.

And what he did was only for her identity!

"Good!" Let us see what you can do. "Tell me, how would you like to reward me on the day that I succeed?"

No one thought that His Majesty would agree so quickly, and even before any decision was made, he had already begun to discuss the matter of rewards. Could it be that Yulie was acting behind the scenes?

Mu Wenyun kneeled down to receive the decree, "This humble daughter has nothing to ask of you. I only hope that this old man has always been willing to help the nation."

"I understand." Chunyu Hong let Mu Yingyun stand up, "Have you made all the necessary arrangements?"

"This humble girl has also heard about the situation at the border of the Northern Kingdom. She knows that there are monsters lurking around the border of the Northern Kingdom, so she decided to investigate. If there is a misunderstanding, the king of the Northern Kingdom will not pursue it."

Her words were very light, making others look down on her.

However, only Chunyu Hong didn't think so.

"Good!" I order you to do as you please. The Duke of Jin led 100,000 troops as reinforcements. I will also personally visit Mount Kunlun and humbly request Headmaster Kunlun to lend a helping hand. "

The matter was settled.

That night, a purple shadow silently snuck into the palace.

There was not a single person within a mile of the imperial study. All of them had been sent out, and even Eunuch Hao, Chunyu Hong's trusted aide, was guarding the perimeter.

Chunyu Hong sat in front of the table to review the memorial.

Candle suddenly flickered. When he raised his head, he saw a person wearing a large purple robe sitting not far away from him.

He had snow-white hair and a silver mask.

"You're looking for me?" Yao Ming sat casually, with a cup of tea that he had already prepared.

The tea temperature just happened to be at the entrance.

Chunyu Hong had prepared this for him a long time ago.

"Just in time."

"What is it?"

"You should have heard about the Northern Kingdom."

"That's right. None of your vanguard troops came back. " Yao Ming leisurely opened his mouth and took a sip of tea. The things in the palace were not bad, the tea and water were especially fragrant. However, there was an extra feeling of the secular world.

"Do you know what's going on?" Chunyu Hong did not mind that Yao Ming would poke his sore spot the moment he opened his mouth.

"I don't know, I've never been there." "You want me to take a look for you?"

"This matter is not that simple. I heard that someone saw a huge shadow in the blizzard, and the corpse that my people came back with had deep teeth marks on it."

"I don't know about that."

"Your beast seems to be very strong too."

Yao Ming put the tea on the table, "Okay, I will lend Qi to Mu Wan. If there's nothing else, I'll be going. "

The candle flame dimmed again. When Chunyu Hong raised his eyes again, Yao Ming had already left. He had only half a cup of tea left.

Jin Yu Lie was in his study room, holding a painting in his hand, which had some strange lines drawn on it.

When Mu Wan finished preparing the pastries for him to enter, his eyes inadvertently swept over the painting.

"What is it?"

Jin Yu Lie pushed the painting in front of Mu Yun. "Look for yourself."

Mu Wan Yun took the painting and looked at it, but couldn't find anything. She shook her head.

"This is brought back by the best dark frost from the shadow guard I sent out. Even now, she is still unconscious, and this is something she painted before she fainted."

The only one who could come back alive after personally seeing the real thing with their own eyes was Dark Frost, but he had not woken up since.

"Does she have a wound?"

"No, but she was poisoned." Even the Five Poisons Young Master had not been able to dispel the poison.

"I'll go take a look."

Jin Yu Lie led Mu Yun through the study and into a secret room. This secret chamber was the only underground space under the Duke of Jin's mansion. It looked extremely similar to a basement.

The place where the Dark Frost was located was one of the stone rooms.

She was still unconscious, with two guards taking care of her.

"Where did you find her?" When Mu Wan Yun looked carefully, she found that there were really no injuries on Dark Frost's body.

"Subordinate received the signal from Dark Frost to find her in a desolate suburb ten miles away from the border. When I found her, she was holding the painting in her hand and she had fainted long ago. But when I brought her back, she had never woken up."

Mu Huanyun was also quite puzzled. She had carefully examined it before. The Dark Frost had indeed been poisoned, but even the Five Poisons Young Master had been unable to do anything about it.

Suddenly, Mu Wan felt that the dark frost looked like a vegetable.

She ran her hand over the dark frost. She touched it very carefully, not missing a single inch.

Seeing her like this, the Five Poison Child wanted to stop her, because what if there was something that implicated Mu Wanyun, then she would become a celebrity in front of Jin Yu Lie.

If something were to happen to her, they wouldn't be able to bear it.

Jin Yu Lie also felt this was inappropriate, "What are you looking for?"

"I suspect she was injured in the head." As Mu Wan Yun spoke, she took out a thin knife from her storage ring. Holding the knife, she moved extremely fast and precisely shaved off all of the Dark Frost's hair.

And when the 3,000 strands of hair landed on the ground, everyone saw that there was indeed a wound on the Dark Frost's scalp located right in the middle.

So this was where the wound was located.

There were two small wounds, not like knives or daggers or hidden weapons.

It looked more like something had bitten it.

"What kind of wound is this?" Mu Wan asked the Five Poisons Young Master. He had been dealing with poisons all year round, so he understood these things.

After a careful examination, the Poison Child replied, "It seems to be the teeth of a snake. However, it has become much larger in comparison to an ordinary snake." Your subordinate has never seen such a wound. "

Jin Yu Lie wrinkled his brows. He took out the painting. With Mu Wanjun's reminder just now, when looking at the curving curves of the painting, it really did look somewhat similar to a snake.

If that was really the case, then he felt that this trip to the Northern Kingdom was too dangerous. He really didn't want Mu Yun to head there anymore.
