In the deep mountains and forests, there was a patch of white snow. It was extremely desolate and cold, but at this moment, a figure in white was rapidly advancing. The white and white clothes were blended into one entity, and if one did not look carefully, one would not be able to recognize it.

Linghu Jie suddenly stopped and bent over to dig a few times in the snow, revealing a piece of blue cloth that seemed like clothes, and then continued digging along the cloth, it turned out to be a man who had already frozen unconscious. Originally, Linghu Jie who was a busybody should have immediately avoided meddling in other people's business, but this man's face was a familiar face to her, she couldn't just ignore it.

Linghu Jie threw a few sticks of firewood into the fire and turned to look at Xu Rufeng. His face was still as cold and expressionless as before. "I didn't die to say something. Save me the trouble of burying you!"

"Wife!" Xu Rufeng was stunned for a while, then rushed over with no regards for his life. Linghu Jadeite's body lightly dodged as Xu Rufeng came into close contact with the snow.

"Pah pah!" Xu Rufeng spat out the snow in his mouth, stood up, and walked over to Linghu Jie's side with a silly smile, "Wifey, I finally saw you again. You don't even know how much I missed you!" "I think you're like someone who forgot to put salt in the dish, forgot to bring silver when you were shopping, forgot to bring a key when you went out, drank wine without dishes …"

"Stop!" A crack finally appeared on Linghu Jie's icy-cold mask. "I'm not your wife, don't call me that!"

"But you are my wife, and we even have the jade pendant as proof!" Xu Rufeng pouted his lips in grievance, as if he wanted to cry at this moment.

"But your letter says that when you die, I will be free to marry!" Linghu Jie stretched out a finger, and the reason was rejected.

"But I'm not dead!"

"But in the eyes of the world, you are already dead!"

"But I'm not dead!"

"But everyone thinks you're dead!"

"But I'm not dead!"

Just as Linghu Jie was about to secretly take out his needles and turn him into a mute, a group of brawny men holding sticks suddenly appeared in front of the two of them. The leader of the dark-faced men shouted, "Little demoness, you've finally let me find you. You dare dig my ancestor's grave, you better prepare to release the blood!" As he spoke, he chopped down with the heavy, white wax stick.

"Aiya, my god!" Xu Rufeng was so frightened that he sat down on the ground. Yet, Linghu Jellyfish did not hesitate to run away. In the blink of an eye, he was over a hundred feet away.

"Wife, wait for me!" Looking at the dozen or so fierce men, Xu Rufeng jumped up and ran at a speed that did not match his current weak body.

"General, it's so cold. Have a cup of tea!" Yin Cui'er carefully carried a cup of hot tea, constantly paying attention to Li Hui's expression.

Although the general's wife had died a long time ago and the general only held her in high regard as his concubine, she was definitely a good person within the estate. However, she did not have the appearance that she had on the surface. She had no idea what kind of woman the general liked now. Or did he not like women at all? The general didn't like her acting coquettishly towards him, didn't like her speaking too much, and rarely looked at her in the eye. He never even mentioned having her in a side room! Although this general appeared to be gentle and gentle like a Confucian general, he was not someone that ordinary people could afford to get angry over.

Li Hui's expression could not be considered pretty. It was even a bit gloomy. The wounds that were not yet healed were one of the main reasons why he was rejected and mocked by his colleagues for playing the part of the emperor today, hoping that the princess's birthday feast could be arranged sparingly. He couldn't figure it out no matter how straightforward he was. Although the country seemed calm on the surface, it was invaded by people from outside the borders. There was no harvest from the drought. Even worse was that their emperor — he really didn't want to think about it anymore. How could he have the mood to hold a birthday banquet for a princess at a time like this? Because of this, he had to make the people suffer for his country.

"Wa! Wa! Help!" Suddenly, Li Hui heard a few faint cries for help. He frowned and asked Yin Cui'er with uncertainty, "Did you hear anything just now?"

"It seems to be coming from that direction!" Yin Cui'er uncertainly pointed to a patch of forest planted in the backyard. Right now, it was already barren, desolate.

"Where does this forest lead to?" Li Hui was normally either in the army camp or he was leading his troops to battle. He was not clear about the route to his own residence as compared to Yin Cui'er.

"It's a forest given to me by the Emperor, but the housekeeper said that there were wild animals that roamed the mountains, so this door has always been locked!"

"Beast?" Li Hui's eyes instantly became sharp, "Go find the housekeeper and bring some people here. I'm going to take a look. I'm afraid that someone is in trouble!" Without waiting for Yin Cui Er to reply, he took out his saber and cut off the lock before rushing into the forest.

If it wasn't for this group of people chasing after her, how could she have ended up like this? Although she had martial arts, she rarely had the opportunity to compete with others, let alone such a large leopard! From the looks of this beast, it must have been hungry for a long time. Its pair of eyes were emitting a green light, causing her to feel both frightened and terrified.

"Wife!" Xu Rufeng was never able to grasp the main point. He tugged on the sleeve of Linghu Jie and excitedly asked, "Did you really dig out someone's ancestral grave?"

Linghu Jie shot him a sidelong glance and silently nodded, but his face didn't have the slightest trace of guilt.

"As expected of my wife, she is bold!" When Xu Rufeng's words came out, the faces of the dozen or so men all darkened. They were local merchants and even the Shangguan Family had been given some face. When had they ever suffered such injustice? He rolled up his sleeves and prepared to fight.

"Don't act rashly, unless you want to be the panther's plate!" Linghu Jie coldly warned. This group of people wouldn't find a time and place even if they wanted to die!
