Xiao Chengyi and Mu Yun'an were riding horses and walking on the path. Because the scenery here was so beautiful, they abandoned the carriage.
Mu Yun'an saw that the road in front of him was very smooth, and the weather was good today, so he said: "Brother Yi, let's go horse racing?"
Xiao Chengyi rejected her without thinking: "No, it's too dangerous!"
Mu Yun'an curled her lips, a little unhappy.
Seeing that she was angry, Xiao Chengyi said: "If you really want to race a horse, I will take you with me."
With that said, he pulled Mu Yun'an onto his horse, hugged her to his chest and said, "Sit tight."
He waved the reins and galloped the horse.
Mu Yun'an felt the wind blowing in front of her. It was really comfortable. Although the speed was a bit fast, she was not worried at all because Xiao Chengyi was there.
After walking quickly for a few miles, Xiao Chengyi's speed slowed down.
Mu Yun'an asked: "Why don't you leave?"
Xiao Chengyi looked up and saw a goshawk hovering in the sky. He stopped his horse and said, "It's Ye Xiuchen who has sent a message."
He turned over and dismounted, hugged Mu Yun'an down, then called the goshawk down and took the cloth tied to its leg.
When he opened it, he saw that it was written in blood. After reading the content of the letter, Xiao Chengyi's expression changed and he said in a deep voice: "Something happened. Jiang Ru said that Ye Xiuchen, Chu Chu and Princess Qinghe were killed by bandits on the way.
Robbed."
Mu Yun'an was stunned for a moment and then reacted: "What?"
She widened her eyes and said, "How is this possible? What kind of bandit could kidnap Ye Xiuchen?"
There were hundreds of people in the marriage team, and they were all top-notch experts. How could there be such powerful bandits in Beichen that could hijack the marriage team led by Ye Xiuchen?
Xiao Chengyi said: "Jiang Ru didn't say that much in the letter. She just asked us to rush to Qingyuan County as soon as possible."
Mu Yun'an knew that the situation was urgent and said, "Then let's leave quickly."
There was something fishy about this matter, and she always felt that it would not be simple. She was afraid that Ye Xiuchen and the others would be in danger if it was too late.
Xiao Chengyi nodded and without further delay, he and Mu Yun'an rode towards Qingyuan County.
At this time, in Black Tiger Mountain, Qingfeng Village.
Master Qianji returned home with a full load, causing quite a stir in the village. Everyone gathered around to look at the dowries that Master Qianji brought back.
At this time, a young girl in the crowd walked over quickly and called out in a sweet voice: "Brother Qian."
This person is Chen Qingxue, the daughter of Chen Zhendong, the leader of Qingfeng Village, and the eldest lady of Qingfeng Village.
Mr. Qianji nodded slightly, and then ordered the people behind him: "Put that man in jail, and send the two girls to my yard for safekeeping."
Chen Qingxue couldn't help but change when she heard the expressions of the two girls. She frowned and said, "Brother Qian, you brought two girls back? Who are they?"
Master Qianji said: "One of them is the princess of Nanyue, and the other is the princess of Beichen."
Chen Qingxue was shocked: "Didn't you say you only robbed property? Why did you rob them too?"
Princess Nanyue and her husband Beichen were passing through Qingyuan County. Before, they would not have dared to have the idea of making a marriage team.
But Mr. Qianji said that he had a way to win this business, and he also said that by robbing the wedding team of their dowries, Qingfeng Village would not have to worry about food and drink in the future.
So his father agreed and let Master Qianji do it, but not only did he rob property, he also robbed people back?
Isn’t it clear that we want to be an enemy of the imperial court?
