Chapter 1696: She Continued To Torture Herself

Ji'er decided to try her luck at Green Spear Mountain.

She had even made a set of bow and arrows for this purpose.

However, she discovered that there was not much wild game left to hunt outside the enclosure when she arrived. That was because hunters often came here and most of the prey had either been hunted or had escaped deeper into the mountains.

Ji'er had no choice but to go deeper into the mountains.

The three little beggars followed behind her at every step.

Meanwhile, in the imperial capital.

Long Yang was not present in the imperial capital and Long Yin was now in charge of the country as he took over imperial court duties temporarily.

The news of Ji'er running away from home had been locked down and no news about it had been revealed.

That day at a villa in the suburbs near the imperial capital. 

Ji Lingxiu had rushed to the villa after receiving a letter from a servant from the Duke Ji Mansion.
