Chapter 55: The Emperor Disappears

The sudden disappearance of the little emperor made everyone stunned.

Although this place is not a well-defended place, Mo Er is a secret guard, and his mission is to protect the emperor.

Now, others are guarding the door, but they have lost their master.

Mo Er was about to go crazy, and when the whole person heard Qiu Jue's words, he ran directly in, there was no bed, no table, and the window was still intact.

The house is not very big, and you can see it all at a glance.

Not really.

"Has anyone ever come in?"

Qiu Jue also felt strange, they had been in the hall over there, even if she couldn't hear any movement, then Mo Er was really standing at the door, and he actually lost someone?

Mo Er didn't answer her words, hooked his fingers, put them to his lips, and after a whistle, five men in black appeared in the courtyard.

At that time, the expressions of several people were ugly and flustered.

Mo Er knew it at a glance, and they didn't know either, so he waved his hand at the moment, "Look for it separately, and meet in place after an hour." ”

Qiu Jue also realized that something was wrong, someone could quietly take away the little emperor with six secret guards, and the furnishings in the house were not in the slightest mess, which was terrifying.

"Lu Zhan, take someone to find it."

She could only tell Lu Zhan that in Licheng, she was not familiar with anything.

Qiu Chan disagreed, "Could it be him?" ”

Qiu Jue knew that she was talking about the King of Huainan, however, she didn't think so.

It should be the same group of people I met on the road.

I walked in a hurry, and I haven't had time to ask anything here.

As soon as Mo returned, his steps were hurried, and he was still carrying an old man carrying a medicine box in his hand, and when he put it down, the whole person was about to collapse, lying on the old tree trunk next to him, panting heavily.

"Mother, master, he ......"

Qiu Jue shook his head, "I didn't come back." ”

Mo turned around and was about to leave when he heard this, but was stopped by Qiu Jue, "You come in first, this palace has something to ask you." ”

Mo Yi was anxious, but he also knew that Mo Er and they were all out now, if he couldn't find it, it would be useless for him to be in a hurry, so he followed Qiu Jue into the hall immediately.

Everyone else was stopped outside, and Qiu Chan stood at the door with a sword in her arms, looking like no one was close.

As soon as he entered the room, Qiu Jue asked, "Do the people I met on the trail today know their identities?" ”

Mo was stunned for a moment, and instantly thought of why she asked like this, he nodded, and then shook his head.

Qiu Jue was confused by his action, "Do you know or don't you know?" ”

"It should be the Beizhao royal family, but it could also be someone impersonating?"

"How so?" For some reason, Qiu Jue's heart glared at an idea.

But it's fleeting, waiting for Mo Yi's next words.

"That arrow is not like the one shot by the Beizhao people."

Mo Yi recalled that after his analysis, Qiu Jue knew that because Beizhao was located in a cold place, they were born relatively strong and strong, and they rarely used this kind of light and fluttering arrows, and they mostly used crossbows.

"You mean, maybe the Beizhao people kidnapped the master?"

But I don't think it's possible.

"If the Beizhao people want to enter the customs, they must have corresponding reasons." Qiu Jue only then realized that in this time and space, there is almost no major trade between several countries, and customs entry is a necessary procedure to connect countries.

Wherever you go, there must be a good reason.

Only those who are slaves, or those on the borderline, are allowed to enter and leave freely, as long as they provide proof of household registration.

Qiu Jue didn't think so, she said: "Do you know that in the backyard of the Huainan Palace, there is a woman who is from Beizhao. ”

"What?"

After the world was divided, all countries were developing their own strength, and they had never passed marriage at all.

You must know that the King of Huainan is a genuine royal family of the Celestial Empire. He wants to marry a wife and take a concubine, as long as he is a native of his country, naturally no one will say anything, but if he is from the other three countries, he must be shown to the emperor.

Make up your mind.

Qiu Jue was surprised when she saw him, and threw a thunder to him again, "She is not only from Beizhao, but also the princess of Beizhao." ”

What is the princess of Beizhao, that is to succeed to the throne of the country.

How did you marry into Huainan Palace?

Mo Yi didn't know, but it wasn't something he was thinking about.

Now that he knows, what Qiu Jue means is that if it is really done by the people of Beizhao, then if he goes to Huainan Wangfu at this moment, he will definitely be able to get an answer.

In this way, Mo Yi also left, with Qiu Jue's last hope.

When night fell, except for Mo Yi, the other secret guards and the people brought by Lu Zhan all returned.

The results obtained are without exception.

They had almost searched the whole city, but they still couldn't find a single corner of the little emperor's clothes.

Qiu Jue walked around the yard, especially in the summer here, and there began to be chanting at night, which made people upset.

Everyone else was standing in the courtyard, all waiting for Qiu Jue's order.

However, Qiu Jue remained silent, as if she was waiting for something.

It wasn't until nightfall that a soft sound was heard, and all the guards looked in one direction.

"Mother."

As soon as Mo returned, his expression was not very good-looking, Qiu Jue waved his hand to let the others disperse, and then asked out loud: "What can you find?" ”

"That person is indeed the princess of Beizhao."

Mo Yi's expression was entangled, "When my subordinates rushed over, I happened to hear her conversation with one person, and those people who intercepted and killed were none other Beizhao people, but not that princess, but another Beizhao king's daughter Shanggong Yun." ”

"So?"

"Shanggong Ying has ordered them not to act without authorization, and the rest of the words are all around the Beizhao Palace, and the subordinates have not listened to it again, but the emperor is not in their hands."

This is Mo Yi's judgment.

He searched almost the entire Huainan Palace, and even went into the water prison where Qiu Chan was imprisoned, but he still didn't find anything, and he followed those people to see the Shanggong Yun, if it wasn't for the urgency of time, he would definitely let the dead girl taste the taste of being hunted down.

"That's strange, a good person can still disappear out of thin air?"

Qiu Jue had nothing to do, she once again lamented that her strength was too small and she couldn't do anything.

You can't save people, and you can't save yourself.

In this time and space, the days to come are still long, and she really should think about what to do.

I can't say it, but I have to start accumulating my own power, just like my grandfather, or......

The master disappeared, Mo Yi and the others naturally couldn't sit still, and they didn't rest at the moment, and once again devoted themselves to a new round of search operations.

The night passed quickly, and none of the people who stayed here slept well.

Early the next morning, Xiao Taohong found here, her injuries were almost healed, and she was ordered by Master Taifu to invite the Queen Mother to Huai'an City.

"Niangniang, the situation over there has been settled, and the lord asked the slave to invite you over."

Qiu Jue knew that this was the main event, and it was also the purpose of their thousands of miles here.

Fight for the royal family and erect an image for the new emperor.

So, no matter how anxious she was, she couldn't wait here any longer, not to mention that it didn't help.

After a day and a night, Qiu Jue came to Huai'an City again, this time not like last time, sneaky.

On the contrary, before she could get out of the carriage, she heard exclamations outside.

"Meet the Queen Mother."

Some people take the lead in worshipping.

Qiu Jue could hear that this was Li Jingzhi's voice, and then many people followed suit.

"The Queen Mother Chitose Chitose Chitose!"

Xiao Taohong was outside, opened the curtain for her, and Qiu Jue walked out calmly.

Stand on the wheels and look out.

At this moment, she is standing under the city gate, the ancient and tall wooden gate with the vicissitudes of life, which has not fallen down for a hundred years, and there are two words written on the top stone eaves.

Huai'an!

And in front of her eyes, there were people all in sight, kneeling in a large area of black pressure, from the city gate to the inside, stretching I don't know how far, these people knelt here, all of them lay on the ground, without a trace of superfluous movement.

Qiu Jue knew that this must be the effect of Li Jingzhi's propaganda, but he thought that it was also an honor for the Queen Mother to come in person, just to comfort these affected people.

"Let's get flat!"

Her voice was very soft, but this place was extremely quiet at the moment, so Qiu Jue's flat voice still came into everyone's hearts.

Everyone slowly got up and automatically separated into one way.

Qiu Jue, supported by Xiao Taohong, slowly stepped out of the carriage, her left and right sides followed Qiu Chan and Xiao Taohong, Xiaocao was one step behind, and then Li Jingzhi and Master Taifu, the team was folded from outside the city to the city.

Qiu Jue realized that there are really a lot of people.

Adults and children, old people and men and women, all have grateful smiles on their faces, they are slightly dark-skinned and small, but everyone is happy.

It was as if meeting her was the greatest honor of their lives.

I don't know how long I walked, so long that the smile on Qiu Jue's face was almost unbearable, and the whole person was numb, and there was finally a roadblock in front of him.

It means that the road has come to an end.

"Minister, Gao Wei, the lord of Huai'an, visited the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother is a thousand years old!"

Hey?

Didn't you say that the city lord of Huai'an City died?

This person is standing here at the moment, this is playing tricks in broad daylight?

Seeing Qiu Jue's ugly face, Qiu Chan immediately knew what she was thinking, stabbed her lightly with a sword, and said, "Niangniang, people are still kneeling!" ”

Don't be in a daze.

Qiu Jue reacted, only then did he take a few steps closer, and was just about to say that he was flat, but his face suddenly changed greatly, and he said, "Come on, catch him." ”

As soon as her words fell, Qiu Chan subconsciously stepped forward with a sword, and in a flash, she arrived at the side of the Huai'an City Lord who was still kneeling on the ground, the cold sword body was across his neck, and he didn't even dare to raise his head.

For fear that the sword in the girl's hand would wipe his slender neck.

"The minister is afraid, the old minister knows that he is guilty, and he has not been the master of a city, please punish the mother."

At this moment, everyone looked at Qiu Jue, this flood was a natural disaster, and the city lord didn't want to, how could he say it as if the city lord had committed some great crime.

Everyone's purpose was to Qiu Jue, as if they were waiting for her to give an explanation.

One after another eyes were like a mang's back, Qiu Jue's head was big for a while, she just subconsciously felt that something was wrong, the breath on this person's body was cold, it was very terrifying, just looking at his whole person, including those eyes, he couldn't see anything wrong.

But Qiu Jue can be sure that this person's breath is wrong.

Especially for her.

However, when asked to explain, she couldn't say it directly.

In everyone's doubts, Qiu Jue had to say, "Since you have the heart to plead guilty, then go with the palace!" ”
