Chapter 721: The Disappearing Team (Reward Plus Change)

Obviously, this guy has also heard the rumors, Yan Saburo's face is indifferent: "You look at me like this, I seem to be rich all over the world?"

Yan Shichu's group of people are all dressed in a solid and unshowy manner, and they look like traveling merchants, and they really don't look like rich people. Shi Congyi also understands that the real trench does not necessarily have the word "rich" written on his face. He changed the subject: "Do you still have your cat with you?"

As soon as the words fell, the lid of the bookcase beside Yan Saburo was cracked. Shi Congyi saw a pair of heterochromatic pupils through the gap.

"Huh, Qianqian?"

The lid closed again, and the cat ignored him. He heard Yan Saburo ask again: "It's almost the New Year, why did you lead the team here?"

Shi Congyi's face straightened, and he looked at Huang He's family.

Yan Saburo glanced at Father Huang, who left the dinner table with the family and went to the corner.

The guests in the restaurant were all driven away, and there was no one nearby.

Shi Congyi lowered his voice at this time: "There was an accident." Do you know that my king's wedding is near?"

Yan Saburo was stunned: "The last time he communicated, he said that the royal court was about to choose a suitable noble girl as the queen. ”

"It was decided two and a half months ago, no noble girl will be picked, and the princes and ministers can die of this heart. "The guy served the food, and Shi Congyi waited for him to leave before grabbing a flower roll, "He wants to marry Princess Xuanping of Youguo." ”

Yan Saburo was slightly stunned: "Marriage?"

"Exactly. Shi Congyi took a bite of the flower roll, "The monarch of the country is old, riddled with stubborn diseases, and he has fought with my country for so many years, and he is physically and mentally exhausted, and it is not very good. Last year, the country proposed a marriage. Every time I talk about this, the court discussion is so lively. ”

Yan Saburo nodded: "The good of the two countries is mutually beneficial." ”

Defending the country and defending the country are feuds, and after so many years of fighting, so many people have died on both sides. Hatred accumulates over generations, and it cannot be eliminated simply after a truce. Marriages between royal families can be exemplary and send a friendly signal that can boost the confidence of the people and promote economic and trade exchanges.

The Wei royal family withered, and only Xiao Mi was left as a lone seedling, otherwise it would be best to designate the prince for such a thing as marriage. Now, Xiao Mi can only play in person.

Analyzing the situation, Yan Saburo also knew that although he had temporarily secured the throne, the challenges he faced were also extremely difficult. He needs an ally.

Shi Congyi said that King Yu was "not very good", which was already very conservative. Yan Saburo heard the news from his mentor Lian Rongsheng that King Yu probably won't survive next summer.

That is called the five decays of heaven and man, and there is no medicine and stone. Therefore, both countries are in a hurry to conclude a treaty.

The two sides exchanged papers, and the auspicious day of the wedding was set for the third day of March. Shi Congyi poured a sip of hot water, "After the agreement, Princess Xuanping's family sending party set off." She will live in Shengyi for a few months, waiting for the marriage. ”

"So, what's wrong now?"

Shi Congyi took a deep breath: "The entire wedding team has disappeared!"

Yan Saburo was taken aback: "What?"

"I said, Princess Xuanping is missing!" Shi Congyi smiled bitterly, "On the way to Shengyi!"

Yan Saburo immediately grasped the point: "Has she already entered the Wei Realm?" Are you sure?" If this princess disappeared after entering the Wei Kingdom, of course, the responsibility would be on the Wei Guo's head.

"Sure!" Shi Congyi scratched his head, "Princess Xuanping's wedding party has a thousand people, and the king sent General Lu Wen Xianlu to meet him on the border, and it is also a thousand people." The two teams worked in parallel and sent messages to Shengyi every three days to show their safety. ”

"But ten days ago, we no longer received any more information from General Lu. Shi Congyi raised three fingers, "So far, he has missed three peace messages." The Protector knew that something was wrong, and it happened that I was in Youping City, two hundred miles away, and after General Lu's first safety news was missed, he sent me to support quickly. ”

"Can't find it?"

"I can't find it!" the man's smile was so bitter that it could drip water, "I found out the place where he sent the last message, and from there I searched in the direction of Shengyi, and searched back and forth several times. That's a team of more than 2,000 people!"

There are more than 2,000 people, with clear banners and armor, how can they be lost for no reason?

"General Lu Wenxian is stable and experienced, and he is a veteran of the battlefield, so it stands to reason that there will be no problem in leading the team. ”

Yan Saburo groaned, and heard Chitose whisper in his ear: "It's such a coincidence, Shi Congyi and we found Sanjiao Town when we were looking for something?" They were looking for clues to the Three-Eyed Monster, while Shi Congyi was looking for the lost Princess Youguo.

"You have a lot of ideas and a lot of work, but you happen to appear in Sanjiao Town at this time, it must be God who has mercy on me!" Wei Wuhou grabbed Yan Sanlang's arm, "I've been so anxious these days that my mouth is full of fire bubbles, and I can't eat well and sleep well! For the sake of past friendships, help me!"

met three points of love, not to mention that the two had fought side by side. It is said that the friendship that has carried the gun together is the most reliable, and the boy thought for a while: "It may not be able to help." ”

"You do your best, I don't blame you!"

Yan Saburo also knew that he had a good temperament, and said happily at the moment: "I just arrived here, and I am not familiar with the terrain. Where did you look?"

"Come on. Shi Congyi changed to another table, which was empty, so that he could dip himself in the water to draw the terrain, and attached an explanation:

"This is the scorching city where Lu Wenxian sent the last message, this is Baichuan, here is ......"

Yan Saburo was a little surprised, Shi Congyi's painting work was actually very good, the mountains and rivers and valleys were both abstract and organized, at least not a soul painter like He Xiaoyuan. However, this guy is actually from a family, and he has learned piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but he finally followed Han Zhao to fight, and he was relieved.

“...... According to the speed at which they were traveling, if they were not missing, they should have reached Kanshui City, which should be more than 400 miles away. Shi Congyi summed it up with this sentence, "I searched all the way from Kanshui City in reverse. Other local officials also organized manual searches, over and over again, to no avail. ”

"Maybe General Lu has changed his course?"

Weiwu Hou shook his head: "Impossible." There were two official roads from Jiaozhu to Shengyi, one of which was turned over by an earth dragon, and the mountain collapsed, so the river was diverted and flooded everywhere, and it took several months to clean up. General Lu knew about this when he went, and he would definitely take a detour. ”

The so-called "earth dragon turned over" is an earthquake.

This welcoming team has no reason to take the small road, and can only take a safe and smooth official road to move forward.

Yan Saburo looked at the map drawn by Cha Shui: "Have you tried to narrow down the range?" After such a journey of hundreds of miles, the gods could not find it. Who knows where Princess Xuanping disappeared?

"Tried. Shi Congyi was also very sober-minded, and ticked a few locations on the map, "Here, here, and the post house here are all on the official road, and there is no other place to stay within forty miles before and after." ”
