One second to remember [Brushstroke Pavilion] [Free of charge, read the wonderful novel!]

The rain had washed away the traces left behind by Chu Junyi and her husband. They didn't even notice that they had passed through the area they had passed.

Shen Ninghua, who was leaning against Chu Junyi, slowly opened her eyes. Seeing that it was still raining outside, he was slightly taken aback. "How long have I been asleep?"

"About four hours. Have you slept well?" Chu Junyi stretched her numb shoulders. Earlier, when she was recuperating from her injuries at Shen Ninghua's place, he had discovered that her sleep was shallow. Any slight movement would wake her up, and once she woke up it would be difficult for her to sleep. So when he held her, he didn't dare to move.

Seeing his actions, Shen Ninghua stretched out her hand to help him massage the acupuncture points on his arm to rejuvenate his blood. Although she did not say anything, her heart was very firm.

Chu Junyi took care of her wounds and leaned towards Shen Ninghua. "Ninghua, you're such a gentle and considerate daughter-in-law. If you can massage me like this in the future, even if my arm is crippled, I'd willingly do so."

Shen Ninghua's massage stopped for a moment, then she placed her hand on his acupoint and said, "Alright, I'll massage you like this from now on!"

Chu Junyi felt a tingling sensation in her arm, and frowned. "Ah, Ninghua, you're going to kill your husband!"

Chen Ninghua snorted coldly and walked to the entrance of the cave to look at the dense rain curtain. "I don't know when the rain stopped, but the capital is in chaos right now. Tell me, who did this?" Empress, Crown Prince, Second Prince, or Fifth Prince? "

Chu Junyi leaned back against the cliff, her eyes glinting with a cold light. "The most suspicious person would be the crown prince. Even though the crown prince is powerful, he still knows what he should do. Besides, the crown prince has a stable position, so there's no need to make such a decision."

Shen Ninghua nodded, "That's right."

Chu Junyi continued, "The Empress wouldn't do such a thing. She's an intelligent woman, and many of the young ladies and gentlemen present support her. She won't use this method of harming her enemies until the crisis is over."

"Then the only ones left are the Second Prince and the Fifth Prince. From the looks of it, the Second Prince isn't the one who did this, so the biggest suspect should be Baili Jinze!" A trace of deep hatred flashed across Shen Ninghua's eyes. A cold glint condensed in his pitch-black pupils.

"Baili Jin Ze and Bu Jinglan were bitten by poisonous snakes together. When we found them, they were already unconscious. If this was all arranged by Baili Jin Ze, then it would really be amazing." First, he was bitten by a poisonous snake, then chased by the wolves. If anything, his life would be in danger.

"The more dangerous it is, the less suspicion it will arouse. If he dares to plot against us like this, we can't let this go easily. " Shen Ninghua retracted her gaze as she quickly thought of a way to take revenge.

"Mm, he has made us suffer so miserably. Naturally, we can't just let it go like this. Speaking of which, the Fifth Prince has hidden the truth the deepest. This time, it's time for him to reveal his true appearance." Chu Junyi was naturally supportive of Ning Hua's animosity towards other men. She wished that she could hate all men except herself. It didn't matter whether the truth was right or not, even if it was the Fifth Prince's doing. He was the one who didn't like her the most. Even if he didn't do it, he still had to admit his misfortune.

After the two of them ate some fruits, Chu Junyi pulled Shen Ninghua into her embrace and closed her eyes to rest. Shen Ninghua didn't act pretentious either. The cave was cold and gloomy, and it was a good place to snuggle and get warm. After about an hour, he suddenly opened his eyes and stared at the cave entrance with his sharp eyes.

Two silhouettes appeared in the light. When they saw that Chu Junyi was safe and sound, their eyes were filled with joy. They took two steps forward and knelt on the ground. "Your subordinate greets master."

Chu Junyi's brow furrowed as she lowered her head to look at Shen Ninghua. Sure enough, Shen Ninghua was already awake. She stared at the kneeling figure with an expressionless face.

"Your people?"

"Yes."

Shen Ninghua smirked, "I came at the right time."

Chu Junyi helped to brush the hair from her cheeks behind her ears. "Is there any use in looking for them?"

When they heard from Ye Yi that their master had found the future master's mother, they originally thought that it was a joke, but now from the looks of it, those words weren't false at all. Since when did their master treat others with such a gentle attitude?

Shen Ninghua had no idea that the two kneeling before him were still in a state of shock. After a moment of thought, he asked, "How many more have come to find Chu Junyi?"

Ye Gen raised his head to look at Chu Junyi and realized that he had no intentions of stopping him. He then hurriedly replied, "Reporting to Matriarch, there are thirty-seven people under my command who came looking for you and Master."

Mistress? Shen Ninghua's body stiffened. It took her a moment to react. What did this' mistress' mean? She turned her head to look at Chu Junyi.

Chu Junyi's smile was like a flower. She used to think that Ye Ginseng was the most glib of all. Now, it seemed that this was all a virtue. Who else could be as sensible as him?

"Ninghua, you don't need to look at me. If there's anything you need them to do, you can just tell it to Ye Geng."

Ye Gen quickly nodded, "Please give your instructions, Matriarch."

At this time, she was too lazy to care about what kind of subordinates they really have, so she directly said: "Find a way to gather everyone else. Not far from here is a villa, which is relatively hidden, and in a valley, I can draw a map for you guys to see. What you guys need to do is to find the villa, set a big fire, and burn it!"

"Villa?" Ye Gen was a bit surprised. The few of them had already searched through this place many times, and even the ant nest had almost been searched thoroughly. Let alone the villa, other than some palaces built by the imperial family, there weren't even any other small houses.

Ye Zhi, who was standing at the side, wanted to open his mouth to explain, but was suddenly struck in the chest by Ye Gen, who was now in the middle of trying to please his mistress. Not to mention that their mistress had said there was a mansion, even if she said there were stars buried in the sky, she would still have to think of a way to take them from the sky and bury them in the ground.

Don't worry, according to my instructions, you will definitely be able to find the villa. However, this villa is surrounded by Death Soldiers, if you want to burn it down and leave it unscathed, it won't be easy, so you must be careful. "Shen Ninghua smiled coldly.

"Yes, I will follow your orders, mistress."

Chu Junyi listened quietly at the side, her heart beaming with joy. The sound of her cry was a comfort to him. He could no longer feel the pain from the wounds on his shoulder. "Since you've heard it clearly, gather the others. Look at the map that Xiao Hua gave you and move quickly."

After about an hour, Chu Junyi's subordinates gradually gathered around. They all stared at Shen Ninghua with hidden curiosity. This was their future mistress!

Shen Ninghua generously allowed the crowd to size him up. Seeing that everyone had gathered, he picked up a tree branch and started drawing on the ground, "I will only draw once. I believe you all can see it clearly. This place might be called a valley, but in reality, it is just a crack, and each time, only one person can pass through it. Furthermore, there is a person supervising from the top of the mountain all day, so it is definitely not easy for you to get there, so, if there is anyone who is unable to do so, no one will be able to force you to leave. "

Those who were swept by Shen Ninghua's gaze all subconsciously straightened their backs. They were looked down upon by their future matriarch. They still had a good life ahead of them, and even if they vomited blood, they couldn't refuse!

Chu Junyi looked at her subordinate, who looked as if he had been injected with chicken blood. She felt humiliated. She didn't know what to say to him.

Seeing that no one was leaving, Shen Ninghua's expression eased a little, "After passing this valley, there is a river. On both sides of the river, there are twelve willow trees, swimming from the third willow tree in the south to the center of the river, you can see a karst cave. Once you enter the karst cave, you will be able to see to the other side of the valley."

Everyone was stunned, even Chu Junyi was drawn over. "The arrangement is so secretive. It's only for the sake of hiding a villa. Could it be that this villa belongs to some hermit's family?"

"This is a military warehouse. All the weapons forged in this villa are godly weapons."

In his previous life, no one suspected that Baili Jinze was conspiring against him. Most importantly, no one was aware of the slightest hint of his intentions, but no one could have imagined that this person, who had always been a gentle and courteous person, would actually have such meticulous thoughts and conceal all of his movements in the dense forest valley.

At that time, when the princes were fighting over the throne, Baili Jinze had led a group of subordinates with masterwork weapons to slaughter half of the forces of Baili JinChuan and Baili Jinyi. No one knew that the Fifth Prince, who had always acted in safety, had actually forged so many masterwork weapons in private.

Chu Junyi's eyes burned with passion. "Ninghua, it's not easy to obtain a masterwork weapon. Leave the craftsmen behind when you start the fire. I'll have someone arrange for other corpses to replace them."

Shen Ninghua nodded, "Sure."

Divine weapons were hard to find. With a person who forged them, he was worried that he wouldn't be able to get a good weapon and wouldn't be able to take advantage of the situation. Such a good opportunity couldn't be missed.

Soon, Chu Junyi's subordinates had all left for the misty mountains behind the dense forest.

Only Shen Ninghua and Li Xueyi were left in the cave.

Chu Junyi's gaze towards Shen Ninghua was even more passionate than the sight of a masterwork weapon. His subordinates might have been obedient, but some were hard to subdue. But this kind of woman was indeed pleasing to the eyes!
