Seeing the Chu army's warships hurriedly fleeing for their lives, Yang Shu was very happy: "You are so afraid of death, how dare you come here to make trouble?"
Ah Xuan felt something was wrong and reminded him: "Your Highness, you are too far away. Aren't these people here looking for trouble? Why do they run away as soon as we turn around?"
Yang Shu became alert. He turned around and saw that he was a little far away from the ship. He ordered the captain: "Let's go back. It's important to protect King An."
"yes."
But it was too late.
Halfway through their boat's turn, the big boat on which King An was sitting disappeared into the vast mist.
"Your Highness!" the captain shouted, "Prince An is missing!"
Xuan Fei's expression suddenly changed and he said, "Someone is setting up a formation!"
Yang Shu was taken aback and quickly understood.
These ships just now were not coming to intercept King An at all, but to force their ship to a certain position.
But those people wanted to trick him out, so he took Xuan Fei with him.
Now, although there are many masters around King An, none of them are proficient in mystical arts!
"Your Highness?" Without Prince An, the captain was in chaos. He could only hold Yang Shu as a life-saving straw, "What should we do?"
"What else can we do? Of course we chase him!" Yang Shu gritted his teeth.
"Yes!" Several frigates all chased An Wang in the fog where he disappeared.
But the fog seemed to be alive and kept shrinking. By the time they arrived, the fog and the ship had disappeared on the water.
"The Lost Array," Xuan Fei said, "There is no need to chase, the array has shrunk and the people have been robbed. Unless we find the eye of the array, we will just get lost."
The captain shouted: "His Royal Highness King An is on board!"
"There's nothing we can do about it," Xuan Fei said with a calm expression, "Pindao came here to protect Prince An. How could Prince An be lost? Do you think I'm not in a hurry?"
"Are we just going back like this?" the captain asked anxiously, "General Meng will definitely handle it with military law..."
"Is there really nothing we can do?" Yang Shu asked, "I'm not afraid of danger at all. I always want to save people."
The captain nodded repeatedly.
Xuan Fei shook his head: "To break the formation, there must be a formation there, but you see, the opponent is so well prepared. As soon as he caught King An's whereabouts, he immediately shrunk the formation. Now there is no formation, how can we break it? This ship
I'm afraid that it has been robbed by the Chu army, and if we pursue it now, we will only be surrounded by the Chu army."
Yang Shu understood: "Go back immediately! Ask Meng Chong to launch an attack and take back King An!"
"Your Highness..." The captain wanted to say more.
Yang Shu sneered: "Do you still want to take the blame now? Even Meng Chong won't be able to be saved if it's too late, so the crime will be more serious!"
The captain had nothing to say and could only weakly order: "Return."
Halfway through their boat, they saw a small boat over there, like a leaf floating on the water, approaching quickly.
When the captain saw that there was no sign of the Qi army on it, he wanted to order the crossbowman to shoot him.
The white flag was quickly waved on the boat. Yang Shu saw it and shouted: "Don't move, let them come closer!"
The captain was confused and waved his hands to remove the guard and let the ship approach.
After a while, two men and two women boarded their boat.
"Brother!"
Ning Xiu waved his hand and said: "It's good that you didn't lose it. We just found the tracking array, but we were a step too late after chasing it. Who is on that big ship?"
Yang Shu was dejected: "It's King An."
"..."
"So, Prince An is lost?" Mingwei asked.
"Yes. What did you find out?"
Mingwei said: "Then there's no need to pursue him. King An has been kidnapped. Just wait for the Chu army to send someone to make terms."
The captain trembled: "Is there no way to be saved?"
"How did you say that?" Ah Xuan rolled his eyes, "What Miss Ming said was obviously to wait for the Chu army to come, but if it comes to your mouth, it will be hopeless?"
The lieutenant meant that he could be saved by himself, but if he said the wrong thing in a hurry, he could only slap himself in the mouth and ask again: "Can't we save him?"
Mingwei said: "The formation has disappeared, where can we find people? The other party came prepared and was very well prepared. We had already discovered their whereabouts before, but we still let them run away."
"Yes!" Cai Shou interrupted, speaking in the dialect of a local fisherman and tugging on his cracked rattan armor, "Look, we also made a turn from the gate of hell and finally escaped with great difficulty."
The captain had nothing to say.
Mingwei comforted: "You don't have to worry so much. King An's life is very valuable. If the Chu army robbed him, they will definitely send envoys here and they will not hurt anyone easily."
The captain was crying with a sad face.
He understands this truth! But the problem is that Prince An is too valuable! Although they have not yet established a prince, both Qi and Chu know that he is the crown prince of Qi. The former prince was deposed, King Xin rebelled and was sentenced to death, and the next two princes did not grow up
Success, but the emperor is bedridden... As the successor, King An has almost no choice.
Now that King An was captured by the Chu State, what conditions would he propose? He shuddered just thinking about it, and chills ran down his back.
The head on the neck cannot be saved.
"Don't think about it, we'll talk about it when we get back." Yang Shu said calmly, "You can't make the decision in this matter."
The captain looked sad and ordered to sail back.
When they returned to the shore, the commander's tent had already exploded.
The big ship on which King An was sitting disappeared from their sight. Meng Chong found out and immediately sent people to chase it.
However, the fog and the big ship just disappeared, leaving no trace at all.
Seeing Yang Shu coming in, Meng Chong was surprised: "His Royal Highness King Yue is not on the boat? What about His Highness King An?"
"Don't look anymore, the Third Emperor's Uncle has been kidnapped." Yang Shu had a headache and found a random place to sit down.
The light in Meng Chong's eyes disappeared quickly, and he was angry and anxious: "Why was His Royal Highness King An kidnapped, but Your Highness King Yue came back fine?"
Yang Shu didn't say anything, but Ah Xuan refused: "What do you mean, General Meng? Did it be my Highness who kidnapped His Highness Prince An? You should be lucky that my Highness was not on the ship at the time, otherwise he would have been kidnapped."
It’s just two people!”
Meng Chong was so angry that he spilled the beans, but Ah Xuan choked him with words and was speechless.
Even if he thinks so in his heart, he can't say it out loud. After all, this is still the prince of Daqi.
Cao Xian came out to smooth things over: "General Meng was in a hurry and just wanted to ask His Highness what happened."
Ah Xuan softened his tone and answered on behalf of Yang Shu: "Speaking of which, this matter is still the work of General Meng. At that time, the Chu army's warships were approaching us, and General Meng sent an order to my Highness to lead those ships away, so my Highness
That’s why I went to the frigate..."
"You're talking nonsense!" Meng Chong cut off his words and shouted angrily, "I have never given such an order!"
"Didn't you do it? Could it be done by ghosts?" Ah Xuan sneered, "Otherwise, why would my Highness risk his own life and go to divert the Chu warship? It's just that he was lucky and escaped.
"
"you……"
"Axuan, don't be disrespectful to General Meng." Yang Shu seemed weak, but he just cut off Meng Chong's words and said in turn, "General Meng, how can you deny the order you gave yourself? Not only did I hear it with my own ears.
Come, there is also the National Preceptor present, do you want him to testify?" (To be continued)
