Emperor Beimeng and Borg invariably raised their voices and ordered: "Come on, go and see what Princess Yanling is doing." ”

Then, the two couldn't help but look at each other and smile, which is called a heart.

Borg was very happy in his heart, it was rare for the Emperor of Beimeng to have such a kind time, and it seemed that he was stationed in the border city, which made him feel very good.

However, soon the guards came to report that Princess Yanling was not in the room. The maid said that the quilt on her bed was folded so well that it looked like she hadn't returned all night.

When Borg and the Emperor of Northern Mongolia heard this, they had a sense of foreboding.

"Send someone to find it quickly." Emperor Beimeng ordered loudly.

Then he asked Borg when Tuoba Yanling had left last night.

When he heard Borg say that last night, Tuoba Yanling went back alone, he couldn't help but be furious, "How can you let her go back alone?" We have just arrived in this city, and everything is not yet familiar, so it is very unsafe. ”

"I think there shouldn't be a problem in this marshal's mansion." Borg explained quietly.

Emperor Beimeng said angrily: "Do you dare to talk back, don't you hurry up and find it?" ”

Borg hurriedly said yes and left.

After searching for a whole morning, Tuoba Yanling disappeared like air, and no one saw her. The soldiers guarding the city did not see her out of the city, nor did the soldiers on patrol see her on the road.

The Northern Mongolian Emperor was furious and issued a notice that whoever could find Tuoba Yanling would have a bounty of one hundred taels.

In the afternoon, under the heavy reward, there was still no news about Tuoba Yanling.

Emperor Beimeng couldn't help but speculate, could it be that Tuoba Yanling was kidnapped?

He thought so, but unexpectedly, a minister actually said that it was possible that Princess Yanling had escaped by herself, if not, how could there be no trace of her. If they are kidnapped, they will either ask for money or make conditions, and the kidnappers will not go a day without a little Tokyo.

When Emperor Beimeng heard this, he felt that this statement made sense.

Borg, however, said that he didn't think that Princess Yanling had escaped on her own, and there was no need for this. The emperor did not imprison her, and made it clear that she would be given freedom, she could go wherever she wanted, whatever she wanted, as long as she did not betray Beimeng.

Emperor Beimeng felt that what he said also made sense. But no matter who is reasonable, Tuoba Yanling just has no news, which makes him very annoyed and doesn't know what to do.

The whole city searched, but did not find it, and went out of the city to search, but there was still no clue.

In the evening, the Emperor of Beimeng found that the key on his body was missing.

I couldn't help but be shocked and shouted in horror: "Who took my key?" Who took my keys? ”

When Borg and the other generals heard this, they asked what was going on, and the Emperor told them that the key he had been carrying was missing.

Hearing him say this, Borg instantly had an intuition that Tuoba Yanling might really go by himself.

She once asked him for the key to the secret room, but she said she couldn't get it. Now that the key to the emperor is gone, she must have taken it away.

Thinking about it like this, he thought that it was also her idea to invite the emperor to dinner last night. And she also cooked by herself, made a table of good dishes, made the emperor happy, and drank a few more glasses of wine before getting drunk.

And she also asked him to go out to see if there was any moonlight, which should have taken the key while he was going out.

When you think about it, everything makes sense. Tuoba Yanling got the emperor's key, and then secretly went out of the city, naturally no one found her traces.

In this way, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, no matter what, Tuoba Yanling was safe. Not missing or kidnapping.

It's just that he didn't dare to tell the emperor about this news, for fear that the emperor would have an opinion on Tuoba Yanling.

The key to Emperor Beimeng's personal body was lost, which is not a trivial matter. The key was the key to the secret room, and there were many important things in the secret room, and no one could enter it except himself.

The key was lost, he didn't think much about it, hurriedly arranged it, and took Borg back to the Beimeng royal court overnight.

When he returned to the palace, he found that the secret room had been opened. The key was placed on the table, and nothing was missing in it, except for the bone-eroding mandala, including the recipe.

There is also a handwritten letter from Tuoba Yanling on it.

Tell the Emperor of Beimeng that she came to find an antidote, and when she didn't find an antidote, she decided to destroy the bone-eroding mandala, which had no antidote and could no longer be used.

After reading the letter, Emperor Beimeng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, fortunately nothing had happened, and nothing was lost in the secret room. As for the bone-eating mandala, it is not necessary. It doesn't matter if it's taken away by Tuoba Yanling, anyway, when I inherited the throne, I had this poison.

"Your Majesty, do you want to reconfigure a key?" Borg asked softly.

Emperor Beimeng nodded, "You go and match it yourself." ”

Borg agreed, and walked with the key to the palace craftsman's room.

Emperor Beimeng was not at ease, so he also walked in, and saw the craftsmen prepare the keys with his own eyes, so he was relieved.

Coming out of the craftsman's room, he ordered Borg to return to the border city overnight.

Borg saw that Dongfang was already white, and the sky was about to dawn, so he persuaded loudly: "Go back to the palace to rest and rest first, and then go back after breakfast." It was too tiring to travel back and forth overnight. ”

After all, Emperor Beimeng was old, and he was anxious about Tuoba Yanling's whereabouts all day, and he was in a hurry at night, so he was really tired, so he nodded and agreed to his proposal.

I returned to the palace, slept for a while, and when I woke up, it was already three poles of the sun.

After breakfast, it was almost noon.

He was worried about the border city, so he rushed back with Borg.

When I returned to the border city, I learned that there had just been a riot in the city.

It turned out that the soldiers of Northern Mongolia wanted to eat pork, so they went to a house, grabbed a pig and roasted it on the street.

The family happened to believe in *** religion, they don't eat pork, so they couldn't tolerate such a thing, and felt that it was disrespectful to their beliefs, so they went to the street to protest.

In the border city, about half of the families believe in *** religion, and they all protested on the streets when they learned of the situation.

The Northern Mongolian soldiers not only did not relent, but caught more pigs to roast in the streets, and even fed them roasted pork. As a result, the people's anger was aroused, and a fight broke out.

Because they are on the border of Daling, the people of the border city are often harassed by the soldiers and bandits of the border countries.

Therefore, every family practiced martial arts and fitness to protect themselves, and the Northern Mongolian soldiers could not take advantage of them at all, but many people were injured.

When the Emperor of the Northern Mongols returned with Borg, they had just finished fighting and were resting separately.

After learning of this situation, the Northern Mongolian Emperor first reprimanded the soldiers, and the soldiers who roasted pork were beaten with thirty military sticks. Then they were asked to go to the homes of the residents of the border city to apologize and compensate for the damage.

The Northern Mongolian soldiers did not understand this approach, and felt that the Northern Mongolian Emperor was turning his elbow outward, so they all had great opinions.

They all said that he was getting more and more confused now, not only did his daughter become a traitor to Beimeng and follow the Daling people to kill his own people, but even he himself was like this, who would dare to die for him.

These words reached the ears of the Northern Mongolian Emperor, and he almost blew up his liver and lungs.

However, he also understands the consequences of lax military governance. The army can burn and loot the captured cities, but they must take care of their own cities. The people can carry the boat or capsize the boat, he still understands this truth.

It is an indisputable fact that most of the residents of the border city are Hui people and believe in *** religion, and they are very strong, if there is a conflict with the Northern Mongolian army, it will become very dangerous for them to garrison here.

It is not so easy to appease them, and if you want to go out to fight with peace of mind, you must have peace of mind here. Therefore, he punished the soldiers mercilessly, and did not hesitate to compensate the residents who had robbed the pigs, which put an end to the incident.

The border city has finally gradually returned to calm.

It was just a superficial calm, because the residents of the border city had never truly obeyed Beimeng, and the soldiers of Beimeng were also jealous of the residents of the border city, but they did not dare to show it in front of the emperor of Beimeng.

In this way, they are all secretly serious in their hearts, and when they have the opportunity, a small-scale fight will break out.

The situation in the border city was quickly transmitted to the ears of Ming Qingyan and the others.

After Ning Shangmo and the others were rescued by Ming Qingyan, they were stationed in Qingcheng, not far from the border city.

Ning Shangmo has always been sullen, she once discussed with Hua Lanyao and the others, if Ming Qingyan and the others exchanged the border city for them, they would use suicide to resist.

However, the situation at that time did not allow them to hesitate at all, and Ming's self-confidence did not dare to act rashly, for fear of ruining his plan. When she retreated to Qingcheng, she knew that Ming Qingyan had no good way to recover the border city quickly, but only to build a defensive line around the border city to stop the attack of Beimeng.

Therefore, she was angry, angry and so angry that she would lightly exchange the border city for their freedom. I've been talking to Ming lightly, and I don't talk to him.

No one persuaded him, she threatened that she would not forgive him unless the border city was recovered.

Ming Qingyan was also very helpless about this, he had done his best. Recovering the border city still needs to be considered in the long run, but he has already planted a lot of ears in the border city, and besides, the residents of the border city are good at martial arts, and they can organize an army to fight against the Northern Mongolian army at any time in the future, but it will take time.

Afraid that Ning Shangmo was too tired, he didn't tell her these things.

Ning Shangmo and the others have been a little unwell since they came back, and at first, they didn't see anything unusual, and it wasn't until three days later that many small red spots appeared on their bodies, which were itchy and unbearable.

Only then did Ning Shangmo know that they had all been hit by the Bone Erosion Mandala.

This poison is unwell in the first few days, but the pulse can never be found, and it will not be shown on the pulse until the body changes, but it is too late to treat it at this time.

But fortunately, Ning Shangmo has the antidote to this poison, and last time she helped Tuoba Yanling detoxify.

It's just that the antidote to this poison is particularly troublesome, Qingcheng is a small town, Ning Shangmo is afraid that there will be insufficient medicinal materials here, and he can't prepare the antidote, so he decided to take Hua Lanyao and them back to the Daling Imperial City.

Ming Qingyan learned the news of Tuoba Yanling's disappearance, and was worried that she would follow them to the Daling Imperial City to find trouble with them, so he didn't let them go, and asked Mo Bai to go back to transport grain and grass and bring medicinal herbs by the way.
