Chapter 44: The Gentiles

Jing Shu grabbed Wen Jiaojiao with one hand and the reins with the other, and shouted sternly at Xiao Xuanan and others: "Back off!"

Xiao Xuanan took a deep breath and stared at Wen Jiaojiao, "Don't be afraid of Yue'er, he won't hurt you. Second brother will definitely save you, don't be afraid."

After all, he was afraid that this foreign man would hurt Wen Jiaojiao, so he could only retreat.

Wen Jiaojiao felt very uncomfortable now. She had to suppress the fear in her heart, fearing that her asthma would be triggered or her heart disease would develop again.

After Jing Shu saw that they had retreated to a certain distance, he gently threw Wen Jiaojiao onto his horse, then he jumped on his horse and ran along the shore with Wen Jiaojiao in his arms.

Jing Shu had been living outside the Great Wall and was very good at horseback riding. After a while, he and Wen Jiaojiao disappeared into the night.

An officer and soldier pulled a horse from another place, and Xiao Xuanan immediately mounted the horse and chased in the direction where Wen Jiaojiao disappeared.

It was dark at night, and a fast horse was running in the dark alley. Wen Jiaoyao was sitting in front of the man. She didn't feel it was too bumpy. She could feel that his riding skills were very good, and he seemed to know that she was a very weak little girl.

Girl, there are no restrictions on her.

Wen Jiaojiao saw that after he went around the city wall, he did not leave the city, but ran into the city.

Xiao Xuuanan, who quickly caught up to the city gate, immediately asked the soldiers guarding the city gate. After asking, he found out that the foreign man had not come to the city gate.

The soldiers guarding the city knew Xiao Xuan'an, and when they learned that foreigners had kidnapped the cousin of the Duke's Mansion, they immediately put the city gate under martial law. At the same time, Xiao Xuan'an asked them to send news to the patrol camp, prepare for a city-wide martial law search, and then have people deliver the news to the palace.

The letter goes in.

Soon it will be the New Year's Day. Half a month before the New Year's Day, a triennial meeting of all nations will be held to meet Emperor Beiyuan. At that time, all nations will come to court, and it will be very lively.

So during this period, many foreigners came to the capital, but they didn't want an incident to happen tonight.

Xiao Xuan'an soon received the news that foreigners were trying to assassinate King Qing'an, but when they failed, they massacred civilians on the shore of Qingling Lake.

Xiao Xuanan knew what was going on as soon as he heard that the assassin was King Qing'an.

In the past few years, Beiyuan recovered some border lands that were occupied by small foreign countries in the far northwest. Most of those small foreign countries were uncivilized barbarians. They had occupied these border states for many years and had long regarded these state capitals as their own.

I have never accepted my territory being taken back.

Although the King of Qing'an was an idle prince, he also had some tricks. The emperor also wanted him to have something to do, and also wanted to take advantage of his reputation as prince, so he gave some of the recovered prefectures to him to manage, town after town.

A tough bone to crack.

Those foreigners who once occupied those territories thought of assassinating the prince who was in charge of their former territories, which led to what happened today.

This incident has escalated to a state matter. While Xiao Xuanan asked people to pass on the news, he took people to the city to search for Wen Jiaojiao who had been kidnapped.

Wen Jiaojiao watched as this foreign man led him to a street with strange architecture. The buildings in this street were completely different from other Chinese-style buildings in the capital, and they looked quite alien.

Wen Jiaojiao looked at the houses with bright colors, exquisite and complicated carvings, and even the doors were arches.

Wen Jiaojiao was startled. This street seemed to be a foreign mansion, specially used to receive foreign noble envoys.

During this period, Yuzhu and the others would occasionally mention to her that there was a coming of all nations to the capital once every three years. At that time, all kinds of foreigners would come to the capital, which was very lively.

Wen Jiaojiao thought to herself that the foreigner who kidnapped her was actually from the envoy group? Are you so brave? He actually dared to kidnap the noble girl so blatantly in the capital city of Beiyuan. Beiyuan is the most powerful country today.

Wen Jiaojiao leaned against the man's chest. He could hear his heavy breathing and smell the strong smell of blood on his body. It seemed that he was also seriously injured.

As soon as Jing Shu entered this street, he bumped into a team.

When Jing Shu saw the outfit of this team, his face changed slightly and he wanted to ride his horse and go around.

Wen Jiaojiao knew that the people living on this street were envoys from various countries who came to North Korea. When she saw this uniform patrol team, she immediately shouted, "Help, I am the sister of the current queen! I have been kidnapped!"

"Shut up!"

Jing Shu immediately covered Wen Jiaojiao's mouth.

Someone in the team looked a little surprised when they heard what Wen Jiaojiao said, and immediately waved the team to stop.

Wen Jiaojiao saw a man in the team stand up and said to them: "Who is he? Get off your horse!"

He spoke in somewhat off-putting Mandarin with a heavy accent.

Wen Jiaojiao's mouth was covered by Jing Shu, and he could only make a sound of "wuwuwu".

Then she heard Jing Shu say something to them that she didn't understand, and she was about to ride away.

She immediately became desperate. They couldn't be in the same group, right?

At this moment, Wen Jiaojiao had already imagined in his mind that he was being used as a hostage of a certain country to blackmail Beiyuan in exchange for some kind of territorial rights.

Wen Jiaojiao watched as the horse took two steps. The man who had just spoken to them frowned and said something gibberish, and then swung the whip in his hand at them.

The whip directly wrapped around Jing Shu's leg, and then the man pulled Jing Shu off the horse with a strong pull.

As soon as Jing Shu stood up, he was surrounded by people from this team.

Jing Shu looked at the captain of the team angrily. It was really difficult for the Salo people to communicate!

Pada looked at the Chisang man coldly, "Chisang people, this is not how we negotiated terms."

After that, Pada said to the subordinates beside him: "Tie him up and send him to the king. He should be a share in today's riot."

Pada walked up to Wen Jiaojiao and asked, "Are you the queen's sister?"

Wen Jiaojiao nodded fiercely, "Yes, yes, I am! If you send me back to the Duke's Mansion, I will be greatly thanked by the Duke's Mansion and the Queen."

Wen Jiaojiao added, "The emperor will also express his gratitude!"

Pada nodded, then took Wen Jiaojiao off the horse, directly carried her on his shoulders, and walked towards one of the houses.

Wen Jiaojiao's head was filled with questions:???Brother, what are you doing???

Wen Jiaojiao watched him carry her into one of the rooms, and her heart beat wildly. I heard that those foreigners were rough and unreasonable, and they also liked to rob money and beautiful women. This foreign missionary group also did the same.

?

Wen Jiaojiao's heart ached, she was really scared.

At this time, Pada was thinking that their king finally had a gift to present to Emperor Beiyuan.

An assassination organization and their queen's sister, what could be better than this gift.
