The king of the Western Regions is seriously ill, and the deadline is approaching, but there is no prince.

The princes are secretly competing, and the royal court is in the turmoil of seizing the heir, and it is not known who will kill the deer.

At this time, there is a change in the bordering Xiling City, and presumably the Western Regions Royal Court will also notice it.

Then, the existence of Sheng Qian's person also surfaced.

Regardless of whether the person who infiltrated Ling Yin's study to steal was instigated by Sheng Qian, or other princes, it didn't matter.

The important thing is that Sheng Qian's identity is laid out like a cocoon.

The Emperor of the Sheng Dynasty will eventually know, and the King of the Western Regions cannot turn a blind eye.

Since the death of Princess Chongning, the king of the Western Regions has not set up a new queen in order to express his heart for the wife of the Sheng Dynasty.

The royal court also pays attention to the orthodoxy of the heirs, and Sheng Qian, as the son of Princess Chongning, no one inherits the throne more confidently than him.

Sheng Chao will definitely stand firmly behind him for the sake of profit.

And the incident thirty years ago has long been dispersed with time, and the Queen Mother of the Western Regions has become an ancient one, and no one will delve into it for the sake of the dignity of the two countries.

Sheng Qian can take the position naturally.

This is really a brilliant strategy, whether it is the mastermind behind the scenes, or the opponent's stupid tricks, in short, Sheng Qianhui is the only winner.

Cui Ling sighed with emotion in her heart, but she couldn't bear to say too much in front of Su Jingyan.

Aunt Su woke up from a big dream, her mind was still very fragile, and she didn't want to say some things casually at such a time, which would make people sad.

She paused and whispered, "Little aunt." There's a pavilion over there. Let's go sit down for a while. ”

There is a low pavilion next to the bluestone road. It is in the middle of the peach forest, because the terrain is quite high, sitting here and looking at it, you can see the beautiful scenery of most of Xiling City.

Cui Ling looked at it from afar and said in admiration, "Xiling is really big and wide, just from this corner, it seems that heaven and earth are connected." ”

This is a scenery that is not found in Shengjing City. It was also something that could not be seen in the previous life of reinforced concrete, she took a deep breath and looked greedily at the past.

Su Jingyan smiled slightly, and she said in a low voice, "I haven't been out for ten years, and I didn't expect Xiling City to change so much. ”

She stretched out her hand and pointed ahead, "Over there, it used to be a barren suburb, and I don't know when so many houses were built in the road. ”

Ten years is enough time to bring about changes in the world.

Decade. It is also enough to make an emotionally fragile woman mature and determined.

When those turtles cowered in the past to escape the past and refused to look up, it became the past. She believes that she can come out and slowly become the strongest and bravest woman.

Sheng Qian? It was just a mosquito that stayed in her heart when she was young and didn't know what it was like to be sad.

When it bites, it hurts, and when it hits violently, it will flow out red blood, as long as you don't care, it will disappear after a while.

No big deal.

The two of them talked while enjoying the beautiful scenery.

At first, it was just Cui Ling who said alone, and Su Jingyan just listened quietly.

But when it came to peach blossom crisp, peach blossom cake, and peach blossom wine, Aunt Su's eyes lit up all of a sudden.

The two of them discussed the peach blossom food with great interest, and Aunt Su knew that Cui Ling could do it, so she urged her for the first time, "When we go back, let's try it?" ”

Cui Ling was just about to say yes, when he suddenly saw a teenage novice behind him.

The little monk smiled and said, "The two distinguished guests are here, the abbot made fragrant tea with peach blossom dew, and invited the distinguished guests from the Pingxi Hou Mansion to taste it together, and the other ladies have already arrived." ”

He made a gesture of invitation, "Come with me, both of you!" ”

Cui Ling looked up at Su Jingyan, "Little aunt ......"

The abbot master of Qingguang Temple personally invited, but Cui Ling had no way to refuse.

Although she still felt a little strange in her heart, an old monk invited a bunch of young girls to tea, what was going on?

Anyway, in Shengjing City, if there were no elders, this kind of thing would never have happened.

But this is Xiling, Xiling, where the people are open, maybe it's just a good intention of the abbot.

She looked up again to observe the guards hidden in the woods, and thought to herself, just to have a cup of tea, there are so many people watching and protecting from the left and right, as long as you are careful, nothing should happen.

Su Jingyan was a freshly dressed and arrogant woman ten years ago, and her temperament was not only refreshing, but also very domineering.

But this long and sad closed ten years has already worn out her edges and corners, making her cowardly.

She looked at Cui Ling blankly, and her tone was full of pleading, "This ...... I ...... too."

After a few years, the world has changed, and she is still very unfamiliar with the world ten years later, and she doesn't know whether to refuse or follow for a while.

Cui Ling sighed, "Then let's follow behind the little master." ”

She took Su Jingyan's hand, and followed by a group of servants, and followed the little master back.

The abbot's meditation monastery is a little far away, and I don't know how long I have walked and I haven't arrived yet.

A servant woman behind Cui Ling asked, "Little master, why haven't you arrived yet?" ”

Little Shami turned around and smiled at them, "It's just ahead." ”

Most of the servants who came with this time were from Shengjing City, and they just wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to go out with the fifth lady to visit the mountains and rivers to worship the Buddha, and they were not familiar with the terrain of Qingguang Temple at all.

Naturally, the little novice had to believe whatever he said.

Finally walked to a majestic courtyard, the little novice stopped, smiled and said, "Isn't this there?" ”

As soon as I stepped into the courtyard, I said that it was too late and that it was too fast, and the door of the courtyard was suddenly locked.

Suddenly, a group of black-clothed and masked people flashed out of the room, and surrounded Cui Ling and Su Jingyan and their party.

The servants who followed were shocked by this sudden change, and after a while they shouted, "Someone, there are gangsters!" ”

Cui Ling frowned and shouted, "Who are you?" ”

She raised her eyebrows and snorted coldly, "In broad daylight, in front of the Buddha's door." You have resorted to such despicable means. There are gods in the head. Aren't you afraid of retribution? ”

Those black-clothed and masked people didn't plan to have a debate with Cui Ling, they tied the servants and blocked them with their mouths after dividing them by two.

The one led by Cui Ling and Su Jingyan stepped forward, and the sharp eyes on the scarf scanned the two of them.

He turned back to his subordinates, and someone came up and packed her separately.

Cui Ling was in a hurry for a while, and wanted to shout loudly, but it was too late, someone had already blocked her mouth with a fabric.

This group of people is menacing, and I don't know what the origin of the road is, look at this well-trained movement. Must be professionally trained.

They didn't dare to talk to her, and they didn't say a word during the whole process, no matter how beaten or scolded, it was very likely that they were not locals.

Maybe......

A flash of inspiration suddenly occurred in her mind, if it was not bad as expected, this group of people should not be from the Sheng Dynasty, and it was precisely because of the language barrier or accent problems that they did not dare to speak, for fear that they would be exposed as soon as they opened their mouths.

But in such an urgent moment, even if you guess the identity of the other party, what's the use?

She and Su Jingyan had already been carried up one by one, and the group of black-clothed people did not come out of the courtyard gate. Instead, he walked to the backyard and snuck out through a small door. I don't know where they're going to transfer the two of them.

Cui Ling was so anxious that she secretly hated her carelessness, and on the other hand, she hoped that the guards who were ambushed in the woods would find out that something was wrong with her earlier.

But the guards who followed the ambush were all in the front yard, and she looked carefully, and there was a steep mountain wall in the backyard, and there was no one to hide again.

She couldn't help but despair.

The guards who were secretly protecting themselves and others saw a large number of servants entering the courtyard together, and for a while, I am afraid that they would not be able to imagine what would happen inside.

They were ordered to protect them in the dark, and it was impossible for them to run out into the courtyard to see.

I don't know how long it will take, maybe it won't be until lunch time and someone will come looking for them, and they will find out that something is wrong.

But the group of people carrying themselves and Aunt Su moved extremely fast, and by the time it was time for lunch, they didn't know how far they had left here.

Cui Ling's heart was really cold at the moment.

She thought with a wry smile, that is, this gang of bandits was not experienced enough, so they didn't directly use a hemp bag to trap themselves and Aunt Su.

Therefore, although her hands and feet are tied and her mouth is gagged, she can barely use a pair of eyes to see the surrounding situation clearly.

This is the mountain behind Cheongkoji Temple, the terrain is very steep, and looking at the overgrown weeds, no one will ever come here.

There was a road at the foot of the mountain, a road leading to the distance, and there happened to be an intersection there, three directions, she had not been there, and she did not know where these intersections led to each other.

Cui Ling had the experience of being kidnapped by Ji Du once, and knew very well that if she didn't break free and escape as soon as possible, with her and Aunt Su, two weak women, if she left the range of power of Qingguang Temple, or simply left the Sheng Dynasty, then how difficult it would be to survive safely.

These kidnappers came with a simple and neat approach, and they came prepared, and it was definitely not an impulsive action.

It can be seen that they must have a plot to kidnap her and Aunt Su, two weak women.

One of them is the youngest daughter of Pingxi Hou, and the other is the fifth lady of the Zhenguo Mansion.

If the other party is really a foreign race, whether it is the Western Regions or the Turks, arresting the two of them in their hands, needless to say, must be used for threats.

Man is a sword, I am a fish.

Cui Ling didn't like this feeling at all.

But the matter has come to this, she just can't do anything anymore, the lives of her and Aunt Su, and maybe the future of the Su family in Xiling City, are likely to be buried in the hands of these people in the future.

Unless, she can save herself again like she escaped in the hands of Ji Du in the past!

Cui Ling secretly glanced at Aunt Su, only to see her head hanging and her eyes closed, as if she had fainted from a sudden change.

She frowned, if she was the only one, she might still be able to fight, but Aunt Su was also there, she couldn't escape by herself, she had to go together, and if she wanted to die, she should die in one place. (To be continued......)
