Shi Jun nodded slightly with satisfaction. He was looking forward to seeing Xu Mian soon.

Two months apart seemed like a long time. Mian Mian, I really want to hug you and kiss you hard.

On the mountain, Shi Yan took Xu Mian's hand and walked under the wishing tree outside the temple. They each hung a wishing card with a red ribbon.

Shi Yan hung it first, and then secretly approached Xu Mian to look from behind. Xu Mian covered it with her hands, and said, "A Yan, we agreed not to look at each other's wish cards, you can't go back on your word." Shi

Yan coaxed, "I'm not the type to peek, I was thinking of tying it higher for you, what do you think, do you want to tie it higher? Above me?"

Xu Mian still covered the wish card with her hands and didn't fall for it, "It's fine if I tie it below you, no need to change it."

Shi Yan had to give up, anyway, he could still peek tomorrow.

"A Yan, turn around." Shi Yan

turned his back, and Xu Mian let go of his hands. There were three wishes written on it, one, praying for the two babies to grow up healthily, two, praying for A Yan's wishes to come true, and three, praying for A Jun to be safe.

Ah Jun hopes you can let me go, hope your corpse poison can be cured, hope you can be safe and sound, and preferably still smile.

Shi Wu ran over with a wishing card in her hand, "Brother, sister-in-law, you are here."

The three chatted for a while, and Yun Hao came to report: "Your Highness, there is intelligence from the capital."

Shi Yan instructed Xu Mian, "Mian Mian, play with Shi Wu for a while and then go back to rest. Be careful with your feet and don't jump around. Remember?"

Xu Mian agreed, "I know, Ah Yan, don't worry."

Pilgrims shuttled in and out of the temple one after another. Xu Mian and Shi Wu planned to go to the back mountain to pick osmanthus.

When they reached the back mountain, there were several osmanthus trees that were not very tall.

"Sister-in-law, don't move, I'll help you pick them." Shi Wu climbed up the tree and picked a bunch for Xu Mian.

Xu Mian approached the osmanthus, and a long and refreshing fragrance suddenly lingered in front of her.

She murmured, "When people are idle, the osmanthus flowers fall, and the night is quiet and the spring mountains are empty. What a fragrance!"

Not far away, a man stopped and stared at her. Under the green tree, there was a woman in a pink skirt.

Looking at her from a distance, she was as bright as the morning sun, and looking at her closely, she was as dazzling as the lotus.

The frozen heart began to beat again at this time, Mianmian, I finally see you.

Shi Jun raised his hand, and Qingluan immediately put his hand to his mouth and made an indescribable sound.

He slowly approached the osmanthus tree and went towards his beloved.

Shi Wu thought she saw Shi Yan coming back from the tree, but she found something wrong. She forgot his two small mustaches and there was also a Prince Jin who looked exactly like him.

"Brother Prince Jin!"

she shouted. Xu Mian turned around suddenly and saw Shi Jun was already in front of her. Her heart skipped a beat and she almost jumped out.

She was dumbfounded for a moment and couldn't utter a single word.

The two looked at each other, with indescribable sad feelings in their hearts, as if everything around them no longer existed.

Shi Wu jumped down from the tree, and just as she got close, Shi Jun slapped her on the back of the neck and she fell to the ground.

"Princess!" Xu Mian helped Shi Wu lie down on the ground, raised his head and glared at Shi Jun, "Don't hurt people!"

Shi Jun's heart twitched, his eyes trembled, the first sentence she said when they met was this?

He bent down and forcibly picked her up, Xu Mian struggled, "Help! Ah Yan! Help."

Shi Jun pressed her into his arms, and suddenly Xu Mian fainted in his arms, there was a fragrance on his collar.

"Master, now is the best time to retreat, hurry down the mountain!"

Qingluan had driven the snakes on the mountain to the top of the mountain, and at this time the grass in the forest was rustling out.

Shi Jun was holding Xu Mian and walking down the mountain path when he heard someone shouting, "There's a snake! There's a snake!"

Shi Yan had just released a pigeon to deliver a message on the top of the mountain. When he heard the shout, he was worried that Xu Mian would run to the wishing tree.

He was extremely worried. Mian Mian, please don't get hurt.

While running, he ordered: "Send out all the guards to protect the pilgrims to a safe place."

Pei Yu ran up behind him, "Your Highness, these snakes are unusual."

"What do you mean?"

"In late autumn, these beasts should find caves to hibernate, but so many of them appear at the same time, it's probably not a coincidence.

" Shi Yan stopped, "Are you saying someone did it deliberately?"

"No, you immediately summon the twelve zodiac animals and the female guards to block the fork in the mountain. It must be Shi Jun who came to the mountain."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Shi Yan ran to the wishing tree. There was no one there at this time, "Mianmian! Mianmian! Shi Wu!" He

ran everywhere looking for Xu Mian, and picked up a hairpin under the osmanthus tree in the back mountain, "It's Mianmian's!"

"Shi Wu, wake up!"

Shi Yan was extremely anxious and tried his best to calm himself down.

People have their own words, and animals have their own language. When he was young, he learned the technique of driving

away hundreds of beasts from a master because of his playfulness. At this time, he took a deep breath, put his hand on his lips and blew the animal language. Several snakes that originally flew towards him were driven back to the bushes by the animal language.

Shi Yan's confidence was greatly boosted, and he continued to blow the animal language. The snakes that had fled out of the mountain slowly retreated.

On this side, Shi Jun hugged Xu Mian and hurried down the mountain. The path was rugged and not easy to walk.

Qingluan and Wei Xin protected them from behind.

Qingluan was surprised, "Master, there are people on the mountain who can speak animal language and have driven all the snakes back. Do you want me to continue the attack?"

Shi Jun said, "No, getting down the mountain is the most important thing."

He expected that the mountain was in chaos after the snakes came out, and Shi Yan would not be able to catch up quickly.

Wei Xin said, "My Lord, as long as we rush to the fork in the road down the mountain, our people will meet us there, and we will definitely be able to leave Lingshan smoothly."

But what they didn't expect was that the twelve zodiac animals and the female guards, after receiving Shi Yan's order, had already rushed there to intercept them.

When they were about to reach the fork in the road down the mountain, Shi Jun saw these people from a high place and was shocked. Could it be that they would be defeated by the same formation again today?

"Qingluan, you go down secretly, use our troops to fight them, make a feint to the east and attack in the west, and I will rush down while the chaos is going on."

"Yes, Master."

Qingluan was unfamiliar, and did not attract Pei Yu's attention, and soon passed smoothly.

Not long after, she rushed up with her men, and was immediately blocked by the twelve zodiac animals, and the two sides started fighting.

Wei Xin protected Shi Jun and ran down the side, and was seen by Pei Yu at a glance, "Quick, stop them, save the Crown Princess!"

The twelve zodiac animals chased Shi Jun again. Shi Jun ran down the mountain holding Xu Mian, stepped on a piece of gravel, and rolled down the hillside.

Fortunately, Shi Jun was holding Xu Mian, and Xu Mian was not injured. They entered a jungle, where the bushes were very dense and there was no end in sight.

Xu Mian woke up in a daze, "Ajun..."

Shi Jun looked around and found an ancient layered cave. He carried Xu Mian in his arms, thinking that no one would be able to find her for a while.

"Mianmian, do you miss me?"

Shi Jun held her face, tears in his eyes. He missed her so much that he almost went crazy.

"Ajun, why did you go up the mountain?"

Xu Mian felt dizzy and touched her belly nervously. Shi Jun then noticed that her slender waist seemed to have changed a little while he was carrying her.
