"Your Majesty, we killed thirteen of Zhou Yusheng's men, and eight of them escaped."
Li Xuanyi didn't say a word.
He sat on the stone steps by the lake, his hands on his knees, his eyes red, staring at the lake motionlessly.
That look was as if he wanted to stare the lake dry and make all the water inside evaporate.
Then another official came to report.
"Your Majesty, I sent 236 people to the lake to retrieve someone, but none of them found any trace of the Empress."
At this time, a man walked out of the lake and shook off the water on his body.
"Your Majesty, it was not found."
Two hours passed, and the word "no" kept ringing in his ears.
His eyes and Cheng Feng's mouth told him that she suddenly disappeared in mid-air.
But how is this possible? It's ridiculous.
It's like someone telling him that she has suddenly become a man.
Li Xuanyi suppressed his anger and wanted to kill all these people.
A little blood oozed from his clenched fist, flowed down his clothes to the ground, and formed a small red flower.
"continue."
"yes."
The men who had just gathered on the ground jumped into the lake again with their bare chests.
Because this lake is very large, it is as big as three marquisates' mansions and is about ten meters deep.
Moreover, the land where they live is far away from the sea, and there are very few people who are good at water.
So they were sent down in groups, one group went into the water while the other group rested.
Shifts back and forth.
People watching the fun were isolated outside the lake.
"What happened? Someone jumped into the sea?"
"Didn't you see it just now? A beautiful girl fell down. It was tragic."
"Did it fall? Why didn't I hear any sound?"
"If they don't fall down, what are they going to do in the lake? Catch fish?"
"With such a big scene, who must have fallen down?"
"I heard that the Queen fell down."
"It's obviously fake. Why would the Queen jump into the lake for no reason? Is it because the money is too much?"
"Yeah, I just listened to it."
"Don't talk nonsense. If you talk too much, you will be beheaded."
"I know, I know."

Su Yumo traveled through space and came to a barren mountain in the suburbs.
It was late at night and the place was quiet. The area within a radius of ten miles was filled with tall trees that covered the sky. There was not a single living person in sight, and only the occasional bird calls could be heard.
A gust of wind blew, blowing a few leaves on the ground.
Su Yumo couldn't help but shudder.
"System, is this a temple?"
When Su Yumo was alive, she often went to the temple to burn incense, so this kind of building was no stranger to her.
Because most people there believe in gods and Buddhas.
His father is also one of the fanatics.
But she didn't believe it.
"Yes, this is a long-ruined temple. The zither player was hidden here by Li Xuanyi."
"Why don't you just send me to him? I'm a little afraid of encountering ghosts."
In this kind of environment, ghost stories are absolutely accurate.
"no problem."
After saying that, the air trembled and Su Yumo moved to a new place.
When I opened my eyes, everything around me was pitch black, without even a hint of light, as if I had fallen into a black hole.
"System, is anyone here?"
"Host, just squat down and touch, and you will be able to touch the person."
"Are you sure?"
"One hundred percent sure."
Su Yumo swallowed, grabbed the hem of her skirt with one hand, and slowly squatted down.
Before she could completely squat down, she heard a groan of pain, and she controlled herself not to run away.
Su Yumo confirmed that there was a living person below, so he continued with his previous action.
As soon as my hand touched some clothes, a sound of collapse came from underneath.
"Yue'er?"
The musician's hand rested on Su Yumo's hand on his clothes.
Su Yumo stretched his head towards the direction where his voice came from, and then moved a little to the side.
Successfully found the location of the ear.
She whispered, "I'm here to take you away. No matter what happens later, don't scream."
It seemed like he couldn't shout in this state.
The musician had a million doubts in his mind, but finally nodded slightly.
"System, go invisible."
Just as Su Yumo finished saying this in his mind, he saw two men in black pushing the door open with two candles in their hands.
The two beams of fire brought light to the dark and cold room.
As the man approached step by step, Su Yumo's heart beat in his throat and cold sweat broke out on his back.
"Are you sure you heard the voices?"
"I'm not sure. It could be a human voice or an insect's voice."
"Forget it, let's check it out. It would be hard to explain if something happened to this person."
"Okay, that's a terrible job."
Su Yumo didn't dare to move at all, and both of their hands were still on the musician's belly.
Although they cannot see invisible people, they can still touch their bodies.
This room is so small, if you walk around everywhere, you will definitely find them.
Perhaps sensing her nervousness, the pianist's hand gently pressed the flesh of her palm.
The two men walked separately, one came to Su Yumo's side, and the other went to
"There's no one here," said another man.
The candlelight almost brushed against Su Yumo's hair.
If this man burned her hair, Su Yumo would definitely beat him up.
"Strange, there's no one here either."
The two realized the seriousness of the problem.
They began a large-scale search with candles in their hands.
