Chapter 284: Ambush
"Exactly." Ming smiled lightly.
Then they returned to the Nine Gates Admiral's Mansion together and waited for the results of the city's search.
But after waiting for a day, I didn't find any clues about Tuoba Yanling's whereabouts.
Ning Shangmo and Ming said lightly, maybe Tuoba Yanling is really not in the city, if it is outside the city, after all, it is in Zhu'er.
Therefore, the two discussed going back to find it directly, and they were sure that Zhu'er would not admit it, she must have been forced to lie by Tuoba Yanling, so it was better to check it secretly.
At this time, it was already the beginning of the lanterns, and they did not go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, but ate two bowls of wontons casually at the chaos stall on the street, and then the two came to Zhu'er's mansion again together.
They hid behind the bushes, and the whole house was quiet, and nothing unusual was noticed.
So, they quietly approached the courtyard wall in the back garden of the house, and prepared to climb over the wall from there to enter.
Unexpectedly, a black shadow came out of the wall and happened to bump into them on the opposite side.
"Who is it?" Both sides couldn't help but ask in deep voices.
"Is it Mingxiang?" The black shadow recognized Ming Qingyan first, he was wearing a mask, while Ming Qingyan and Ning Shangmo didn't have any protective measures, they came directly from the Nine Gate Admiral's Yamen.
"You are?" Ming Qingyan heard that the black shadow knew him, and his voice was very familiar, so he couldn't help but ask in surprise.
"I'm Borg." The dark shadow replied in a deep voice.
"It turned out to be Marshal Borg, how did you get here?" Ming Qingyan asked in surprise when he saw him take off his mask.
Borg sighed softly and said aloud: "Alas, it's hard to say, why don't we find a place to talk." ”
Ming nodded lightly, so he and Ning Shangmo took Borg to the grove next to the house.
"Tell me, your generalissimo is not in the border city, how did you come to our imperial city? I heard that your Northern Mongolian Emperor was sick and you left again, wouldn't they be a group of dragons without a leader? Ming Qingyan didn't have any extra polite words, and asked straight to the point.
Borg replied helplessly: "Princess Yanling ran away again, and the Northern Mongolian army was defeated, which made our emperor very angry and fell ill. I'm here to take Princess Yanling back this time. ”
"How do you know she's here with Pearl?" Ming asked softly.
"She used to tell me about Pearl, and I guessed she might be here. Moreover, in the imperial city, the search is so strict, she naturally does not dare to stay in the city. Instead, it's the best place to stay. I just came here to find her. Borg replied.
"Then why don't you go through the gate?" Ming asked lightly, puzzled.
"I also wanted to secretly check what she was doing here, but I didn't expect to find out, alas, it's just filthy." Borg shook his head and sighed, as if he had seen something he shouldn't have seen.
Seeing him like this, Ming Qingyan couldn't help but ask curiously, "What's wrong?" What's unusual there? ”
"It's not that there's something abnormal in Zhu'er, it's that Princess Yanling is really ...... It's ......" Borg looked helpless and embarrassed, he saw Tuoba Yanling entangled with Zhu'er's husband, but Zhu'er helplessly stood on the side and served them.
How could he say that? In particular, Tuoba Yanling had a skin-to-skin relationship with him, and he felt even more disgusted and disgusted when he saw this, and he was ashamed of her.
He always didn't believe those gossips about Tuoba Yanling, thinking that it was fake, and that someone else deliberately arranged the princess. She is rude, and it is inevitable that she will offend people, so naturally some people are unhappy with her, and it is reasonable to arrange bad words about her and splash dirty water on her.
But now it seems that those are not other people's arrangements, but the facts, she Tuoba Yanling is a watery poplar person, who was once humiliated by men, and now she has become a pleasure in playing with men.
He felt disgusted because of this, especially since he had been toyed with by her, and he felt that he couldn't forgive Tuoba Yanling's behavior.
But thinking like this, he still had to endure his disgust for Tuoba Yanling and be perfunctory to her, after all, her changes were caused by him in the final analysis, if he hadn't been derelict in his duty when he escorted her back to Beimeng from Daling, Tuoba Yanling would not have suffered an accident, and now she would not have become like this.
In this way, he suddenly raised his head, looked at Ming and said lightly: "She is indeed very excessive, but she can have today's behavior, it is all because she flew into trouble, if you catch her, can I take her back to Beimeng?" ”
Ning Shangmo saw that his attitude before and after was completely different, and he understood that he felt guilty about Tuoba Yanling in his heart, this was his inner demon, if this inner demon could not be eliminated, he would always become her slave and be used by her.
Therefore, he asked aloud, "Do you feel sorry for Tuoba Yanling?" ”
Borg looked at her in a little surprise and asked, "How do you know?" ”
"Do you think it was because you didn't protect her well that caused her to be where she is today?" Ning Shangmo continued to ask.
Borg nodded, that's exactly what he thought.
Ning Shangmo shook his head and smiled: "You are wrong, she is by nature. Although that time hit her hard, but then all this was completely because of her temperament in her bones. She's that kind of person, she's been through a lot of men, and that's her pleasure. Judging by your expression, I guess Zhu'er's husband has been captured by her, right? This is not surprising, this is her means and personality, if you forcibly tie all this to your mistakes, then no one else can persuade you. ”
Hearing her say this, Borg didn't feel any comforted in his heart.
Even so, that incident was a trigger point after all. If it weren't for that, maybe she wouldn't have discovered the bad habits in her bones, and maybe she wouldn't have been stimulated for the rest of her life.
Ming Qingyan was a little unbearable about his self-blame, and couldn't help but comfort him: "Brother Borg, it's better to relax, many things are beyond your control." ”
Borg nodded, smiled gratefully at him, and sighed softly.
"Tuoba Yanling is inside, right?" Ning Shangmo asked.
Borg nodded: "At this point, she's having fun." ”
"She's really in the mood." Ning Shangmo sneered, and then said to Ming lightly: "Let's quickly lead the troops to arrest her, so as not to do more despicable things." ”
Ming nodded lightly, "I'll call someone, you and Marshal Borg go and stay outside, don't let her run away." ”
Borg begged again: "Can you catch her and let me take her back to Beimeng?" I promise, she'll never come back to make a big mess. ”
Ming Qingyan and Ning Shangmo couldn't help but look at each other and smile bitterly. How could he guarantee that Tuoba Yanling would listen to him.
Seeing that they didn't believe it, Borg hurriedly said out loud: "Take her back this time, you will put her under house arrest in the princess's mansion and won't let her go out for the rest of her life." This is the Emperor's Message. ”
Ming heard this, and then nodded and responded: "Okay, for Brother Borg's sake, if our emperor and the concubine are safe and sound, then let you take her away." If the emperor is a little out of the question, then she can only be disposed of by our Da Ling people. ”
Borg hurriedly asked what Tuoba Yanling had done here.
Ming lightly told him about her poisoning the emperor and Yun Guifei.
Borg was also very angry when he heard this, but he was angry, after all, he still had to help Tuoba Yanling speak.
Then, Ming Qingyan went back to call someone, while Borg and Ning Shangmo hid near Zhu'er's house to monitor and prevent Tuoba Yanling from leaving.
Borg asked Ning Shangmo if the bone-eroding mandala in his body had been detoxified.
Ning Shangmo told him that it is easy to say that ordinary people are poisoned, but after all, Yun Guifei is about to give birth, and if the poison enters the body, it will damage the fetus, everything is still unknown.
After listening to this, Borg couldn't help but recite their Beimeng mantra in his mouth, praying that Concubine Yun and the fetus in her womb were okay. Only in this way will Tuoba Yanling be fine.
Since he came out to look for Tuoba Yanling, he hoped to live up to the emperor's trust and bring her back safely. As for how the emperor disposes of Tuoba Yanling, it is not something he can control.
Ning Shangmo knew his mood and the burden he was carrying, so he persuaded with a smile: "Actually, everyone has a specific destiny for each person, and maybe it is already destined in one life." No one can change it, we don't need to be emotional about things we can't control, as long as we are worthy of our conscience. Regarding Tuoba Yanling, no matter what her future outcome is, it is her fate. You've done enough for her, just go with the flow. ”
Borg replied gratefully: "I will, thank you for the eldest princess of Shangmo." ”
Ning Shangmo smiled warmly at him, didn't say anything again, just stared intently at the door of Zhu'er's house.
Half an hour later, Ming Qingyan took the servants of the Nine Gates Admiral's Mansion to arrest Tuoba Yanling.
Borg and Ning Shangmo did not show up, and they continued to hide near the big mansion.
Ming Qingyan and the others called to open the door, and before the servants went in to report, they had already rushed in.
In Zhu'er's inner room, Tuoba Yanling and Zhu'er's husband were blocked on the bed.
Zhu'er looked at the Daling soldiers who were like divine soldiers descending from the sky in embarrassment, and she was happy and afraid in her heart.
I'm so happy that I'm finally ending this unbearable life, I'm afraid that Tuoba Yanling is arrested, she won't think it's her informant, right? She was already full of hatred for her, and now if she betrayed her again, she was afraid that she would die without a place to bury.
Sure enough, Tuoba Yanling saw Ming Qingyan rushing into the room with the messengers, subconsciously pulled up the quilt to cover his body, and shouted angrily: "Zhu'er, you ungrateful traitor seeking glory. I spared you once, and you betrayed me again without gratitude. ”
Zhu'er was so frightened that she immediately knelt on the ground and begged for mercy: "Princess, spare your life, I really didn't tell the truth." I've never left the house, and that's what you see. ”
Seeing this, Ming Qingyan pulled her up angrily, and said hatefully: "What are you still kneeling for her?" Who is she your princess? In the future, you just have to be an upright person, and if she dares to harass you again, you can just report to the official. ”
Then he shouted at Tuoba Yanling: "If you don't do bad things, you are not afraid of ghosts calling the door, there is another sentence, Skynet is magnificent and negligent, since you have done bad things, you will not escape the pursuit of Skynet, this is your fate." ”
