"What!" Princess Yalun's body swayed and she almost fell to the ground. Ever since her husband's accidental death, her child had been her only source of support. Now that she knew that her child had been kidnapped, how could she not panic?
"Did something happen in the residence, Your Highness? Do you need my help? "Song Qingshu asked even though he already knew the answer.
"No need!" Princess Yalun's body trembled a little, but she forced herself to say, "We'll take our leave first. We'll come back again if we have the chance."
Without waiting for a reply, she left in a hurry with her subordinates.
"What happened? When was the little prince kidnapped?" On the way out, Princess Yalun asked her subordinates with a frosty expression.
The messenger replied hurriedly, "When it was time to breastfeed, the wet nurse wanted to carry the little prince but found that he was not in the room. She quickly informed the other maids to look for him, but there was no trace of the little prince in the entire residence. Only then did we know that the little prince had been kidnapped."
"What are the guards in the residence doing?" Princess Yalun was furious. She was always gentle and kind, and she even wanted to kill all of them. But after calming down, she suppressed the thought.
"Although Alan and I have come out, the residence is still heavily guarded. That person must be highly skilled in martial arts to be able to sneak in and kidnap the little prince," Hou Xibai analyzed.
Alan said, "Before we left, Your Highness had just carried the little prince. That thief took the little prince away while we were away. The timing is so coincidental. Could it be related to the Shuiyue Sect?"
Princess Yalun looked back at the residence of the Shuiyue Sect in the distance. After a long time, she shook her head and said, "I don't think so. He's a Dong Ying man with no relatives here. He used to have a few disciples, but most of them died in Xixia. Now he's all alone. How could he have the ability to kidnap someone?"
"But doesn't he still have the Wind Lady? Although she went missing during this trip to Gaochang, could he have hidden her on purpose and secretly helped him with something?" Ah Lan was still unwilling to give up.
At this time, Hou Xibai said, "I've met the Wind Lady once. Although her martial arts are good, she would not be able to sneak into the residence and kidnap the little prince."
Ah Lan was stunned. Although he did not like this pretty boy, his analysis did make sense.
"Princess, should we inform the Great Khan?" Hou Xibai asked.
Princess Yalun looked hesitant. Objectively speaking, she didn't want to trouble the Khan for everything. Doing so would make her branch seem incompetent. But this time it concerned her son's safety, so she couldn't care less. Just as she was about to send someone to inform the Khan, she suddenly froze.
Not only her, but the other two people in the carriage were also stunned. At this moment, there was one more person in the carriage. It was as if he had appeared out of thin air. The other person's face was covered, and only a pair of deep eyes could be seen.
Alan, Daren, and Hou Xibai recovered from their momentary daze before they attacked at the same time. Judging by their attire, it was hard not to associate them with assassins.
However, just as they raised their hands, they felt their vision blur. The person in front of them moved first and sealed their acupoints.
Hou Xibai couldn't help but be shocked. Although he had been caught off guard, he was only slow for a moment. But the other person had managed to take advantage of that moment to subdue him. How good was his martial arts?
"Who are you?" Princess Yalun was relatively calmer. Her beautiful eyes stared at the mysterious person in front of her.
"Your Highness, I admire your self-control. I thought you would call for help or something." The person who had come was naturally Song Qingshu. After the group left, he had changed his attire and chased after them. He used Imminent Skyline to enter the carriage.
"Even the two of them are no match for you. There's no point in me calling for help at such a close distance." Princess Yalun was a little surprised. The other person looked so young, but he had such high martial arts skills. "How did you get into the carriage? Didn't the guards outside stop you?"
Song Qingshu shrugged. "How I got in is not important. What's important is whether or not you want to save the little prince."
Princess Yalun's calm expression changed instantly. "You're the one who took Yulong Dashu!"
Song Qingshu pressed his palm down slightly. "Calm down, Your Highness. The little prince is fine. I just need you to promise me one thing."
"What is it?" Princess Yalun's eyes were like an angry female leopard.
"Bring a few people into the prison." Song Qingshu said slowly. "Wuliang Hetai is guarding the prison now. Your Highness, you should be able to persuade him."
Princess Yalun's expression changed slightly. "You want to save Guo Jing?"
Song Qingshu said, "You don't have to worry about that, Your Highness."
Princess Yalun sneered. "Breaking into the prison is a serious crime. Even as a Princess, I can't bear the responsibility."
Song Qingshu laughed. "You will agree."
Not to mention the fact that Yulong Dashu was a threat, she had originally planned to find Guo Jing to verify her father's murder. If she had been hesitant before, now was the time to give her a reason to do so.
"Your Highness, please don't hate me for taking your son. In fact, this will give you a reason to get off the hook. If the Khan blames you later, you can use us to threaten you with Yulong Dashu. I don't think the Khan will be so heartless." Song Qingshu added another bargaining chip.
Princess Yalun's eyes flickered. Apparently, the last of her worries were gone. She could now meet Guo Jing openly. "Alright, I promise you. But you must ensure Yulong Dashu's safety. Otherwise, even if you run to the ends of the earth, I'll tear you to pieces!"
"Happy working with you!" Song Qingshu extended his hand to give her a high five as a pledge.
Alan panicked. "Your Highness, please don't agree to his request. Breaking into the prison is a serious crime. The Khan won't let you off."
Hou Xibai had a playful look on his face. His identity was special, so he didn't care about such things.
Princess Yalun said in a low voice, "I have made up my mind. You don't have to say anything else. I will lock you up when we get back. I will take responsibility for anything that happens."
Alan Daier quickly said, "I am not someone who is afraid of death. Since Your Highness has made up your mind, I will follow you to the end of my life! "
Hou Xibai also said, "Your Highness is of high status. How can you not have someone to protect you? I have always prided myself on loving and protecting flowers. How can I sit back and watch Your Highness risk her life alone? "
Princess Yalun blushed at his words, but she knew that he had always been like this, so she didn't blame him. "Alright, I'll have to trouble you two then." She then looked at Song QingShu and asked, "Can you unseal their acupoints?"
"Of course." Song Qingshu moved like lightning and quickly unsealed their acupuncture points.
Alan Daier and Hou Xibai instinctively shrank back after they were freed. They looked at him warily.
Princess Yalun said, "Since we have become allies, how should I address you, Your Highness?"
"We are all passersby in life. There is no need to care about our names. Be prepared tonight, Your Highness. I will bring people to you." Song Qingshu flew out of the carriage after saying this.
