The guard nodded: "Yes, a carriage with a palace sign left here an hour ago."
Xiao Chengyi's eyes narrowed, and he rode his horse towards the outside of the city. About ten miles out of the city gate, he saw several people lying on the mountain road.
It was the secret guard he sent to protect Mu Yunan.
Xiao Chengyi got off his horse, checked one of the secret guards, and found that they seemed to have been drugged. He pinched the man's middle and woke him up.
The secret guard slowly opened his eyes and looked at the person in front of him. His mind suddenly became clearer: "Your Majesty."
Xiao Chengyi said coldly: "Where is the princess?"
The secret guard replied: "Today the princess and the princess left the palace, but headed outside the city. My subordinates noticed something was wrong and forced the carriage to stop, and found that both the princess and the princess had passed out.
Just when we wanted to go over to check, we were accidentally hit and fainted, and when we woke up, we saw you, Prince."
He knelt on the ground with one knee, lowered his head and said: "This subordinate is incompetent, so please punish me."
Xiao Chengyi's eyes were cold. He looked around and saw clearly messy footsteps, indicating that the opponent had already been ambushing here. They knew that their strength was disparate, so they did not confront each other head-on. Instead, they used these despicable methods.
He clenched his fist, looked at the ruts on the ground, got on his horse and continued to chase.
After chasing him thirty miles outside the city, he finally saw the shadow of the carriage in a mountain forest.
Xiao Chengyi abandoned his horse and ran over. He opened the curtain and saw that there was no one in the carriage.
He was fooled!
The anger in Xiao Chengyi's heart rushed up, and he punched the carriage, with raging flames in his eyes.
Countless emotions such as self-blame, worry, anger, and fear surged into his heart, making him feel confused.
He lost Yan Yan again. Why didn't he notice that someone from Mobei had sneaked in and had Yan Yan robbed under his nose?
He is useless.
But there is only one road leading to Mobei, where can they go?
"Your Majesty."
After getting the news, Shen Zhixu came here and saw Xiao Chengyi standing in front of the carriage with blood on his hands. He hurriedly walked over and asked: "Have you found the princess?"
Xiao Chengyi shook his head: "The other party came and tried to lure the tiger away from the mountain."
Shen Zhixu took a breath and asked, "Is it really Miss Qiu Wu who kidnapped the princess?"
Xiao Chengyi couldn't believe that a weak girl could have such abilities. He thought of the Xuanqing Temple where Qiu Wu stayed, and he might be able to find some clues there.
He turned around and hurriedly got on his horse. Shen Zhixu followed him, and the two of them arrived at Xuanqing Temple.
This Taoist temple was somewhat dilapidated because there were no people there, and it didn't look like there were people there.
The people brought by Xiao Chengyi were searching the Taoist temple, while Shen Zhixu followed Xiao Chengyi to the main hall.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw a letter placed on the incense table dedicated to Yuanshi Tianzun in the main hall.
Xiao Chengyi picked up the letter and saw it read: Personally signed by the Prince Regent.
His eyes darkened, and he hurriedly tore open the letter. The beautiful handwriting on it showed that it was written by a woman: "The fact that the Prince Regent can find this place means that you have discovered my identity.
Our King Khan of Mobei has always admired the prince's heroic appearance, but he was afraid that the prince would not condescend to him, so he could only invite your princess to Mobei as a guest first.
We are a thousand miles away from Mobei. Please put the life of the princess first and not try to intercept her on the way.
If this princess cannot return to Mobei safely, then your princess will have to be buried with me. Therefore, I ask the prince to take the overall situation into consideration. This princess is waiting for the prince in Mobei.
In order to prevent the prince from worrying, I will leave letters along the way to report to you on the princess’s condition, I’m sorry.”
