Baiji kowtowed heavily. In the past few days, she had been suppressing her tears. She was afraid that if she panicked, it would not do her any good to save Moyan.
Now, although His Majesty had spoken, Baiji was still heartbroken. But now she only hoped that Moyan could return safely. If he asked her to exchange her life for his, she would do it immediately.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Baili Wuchen looked at Baiji thoughtfully, and his eyes flickered.
"Miss Baiji, after Little Childe disappeared, did you investigate those jugglers outside?"
Baiji nodded and said.
"After discovering that Little Childe was missing, Baishao and I had already investigated those people. There were many people who came to the capital city to perform, but they were all invited by famous aristocratic families in the capital city. Generally, they knew each other very well, and nothing could be seen on the surface. But these jugglers moved frequently, and some strangers were not remembered at all. We also suspected that those people had abducted Little Childe. But so far, we haven't received any relevant news. "
Baili Wuchen nodded, indicating that she could go out.
When Baiji's figure disappeared through the door of the imperial book, Long Tianhao quickly wrote a letter on the table, and then sealed it with wax.
"Give this secret edict to Ling Ye. In any case, we must find Moyan's trace. "
The figure who appeared out of thin air was the new secret guard who replaced Ling Ye. He took the secret letter with both hands and went to carry out the task given by his master loyally.
"Your Majesty, don't you think it's too much of a coincidence?"
After thinking for a long time, Baili Wuchen dared to say his guess.
Now that the court had just been established, many officials had their own thoughts. But there were few who dared to touch Moyan. Unless they wanted to completely fall out with the new emperor, they would be courting death if they dared to touch Lin Mengya's people.
Therefore, it was not difficult to guess who could abduct Moyan at this critical moment without anyone knowing.
"Is it — Tiancheng?"
The disappearance of the old emperor was strange. Now that Moyan's matter had come out, Long Tianhao's keen intuition, which had been trained for many years, helped him find a secret connection between the two.
His people constantly monitored both inside and outside Jingdou, but they had disappeared without a trace. Other than having planned it long ago, it was mostly because they were more familiar with the situation inside and outside Jingdou.
Apart from the Shangguan family and Tiancheng, he couldn't think of a more suitable candidate.
If he just wanted to take revenge on Mengya, kidnapping Moyan was a good idea, but it was not the best one.
It seemed that there were many things that he was still unclear about.
"If it's Princess Tiancheng, I may be able to help you along the way. Actually, this subordinate feels that the other party shouldn't be able to threaten the young master's safety. After all, if they really touched the Young Master, His Royal Highness would never let them off. Hostages are most valuable when they are alive. "
Baili Wuchen raised his eyebrows, lowered his voice, and replied gloomily.
He knew this better than anyone else.
Long Tianhao looked at him and smiled coldly.
Indeed, the person who kidnapped Moyan must have a purpose. But no matter if it was him or Lin Mengya, they were both hard bones that could break the claws and teeth of their opponents.
Since they dared to attack them, they should be prepared to pay the price in advance!
In Jingdou, the situation was turbulent, and all forces appeared.
Outside Jingdou, Lin Mengya hurried and finally entered Xiangzhou half a month later.
This time, they didn't take the nearest road to Lieyun.
After passing through Xiang Province was Qi Province, and on the border between Qi Province and the Lieyun Nation, there was an endless mountain range.
After crossing this mountain, they would be met by the people sent by the monarch of Lieyun.
Lin Mengya intended to gather her people in Xiangzhou and make an inventory, so as not to cause trouble there.
"Hall Master, we will reach Chongan County in a few days. Our men, those who have already arrived, are all waiting there. "
As Lin Mengya's personal bodyguard, Xu Shan naturally had to make proper arrangements for these matters.
In the past few days, Shi Bupo had also restrained himself a lot. He followed Lin Mengya every day like a little tail that she couldn't get rid of, but he didn't dare to annoy her.
These two strange people had now become Lin Mengya's left and right arms.
There were many things that she and Qinghu couldn't do, but they would take care of them for her.
"Well, thank you for your hard work. Take a break when we arrive at Chongan County."
Behind the dark blue curtain, Lin Mengya nodded slightly and isolated herself from the outside world again.
In the carriage, she was piled up by piles of letters.
The intelligence system of Sanjue Hall was getting better day by day. Now, not only could she get all the news of Dajin, but she could also get all the news of the other three countries.
Xiaoyu had finished his closed-door training, earlier than she had expected.
The Xin family wanted to kill Xiaoyu secretly, but they were all killed by Lin Mengya.
Seeing the news, Lin Mengya didn't feel happy at all.
The letter said that for some reason, Xiaoyu's temperament changed greatly after he finished his closed-door training. Even Xiu almost got into an accident because of him.
Therefore, the Xin family also suffered a great loss, and all the elites in the family died in the battle.
Although it was a good thing that Xiaoyu's fighting capacity improved, Lin Mengya felt worried.
But according to the news she got, even if Xiaoyu really subdued the Gu King, he shouldn't have such a reaction.
She was sure that with the preparation she had made, Xiaoyu would never encounter any life-threatening danger in the Pool of Infinite Gu.
What on earth made the child's temperament change so much?
Lin Mengya held the secret letter, and her mind was clouded.
It seemed that the situation was much more complicated than she had imagined.
"Don't worry, we will return to Lie Yun soon."
Qinghu, who had been accompanying her, also knew that Xiaoyu was one of the most important family members to Lin Mengya.
He really couldn't bear to see Lin Mengya frowning, so he couldn't help but comfort her.
"I've been feeling uneasy for the past few days. Qinghu, do you think we will fail this time? "
There were two sides to everything. Lin Mengya never thought that she could always win.
But this time, she had to win.
Maybe it was because of this obsession that she felt more and more uneasy.
Qinghu wanted to comfort Lin Mengya with some lies, but he knew her well, so he just shook his head with a wry smile.
"I don't know what will happen when the legacy of Gu Wei is found out. I don't know anything like you. Don't put too much pressure on yourself. We still have other people, don't we? "
Lin Mengya looked at Qinghu and shook her head slightly. Between her eyebrows, there was a thick sorrow that could not be dissipated.
"You know that we can't trust anyone except ourselves. I can't gamble with the lives of my own people, because I can't afford to lose. "
Lin Mengya had never been so depressed. She really wanted to escape.
But her mother had escaped all her life, and in the end, she died because of her own fate.
So she could only face it.
It was sunny outside, and it was chilly in spring. She only felt like a rose buried by winter snow. Even though it looked withered, who could know that there was a vigorous vitality under it?
"Don't think too much. The most important thing is the matter at hand. Look at you, you haven't slept well for a few days. If you go on like this, you'll starve to death before we reach the destination. "
Qinghu tried to make his tone as relaxed as possible, so that this woman, who was troubled by all kinds of things, could have a moment of respite.
But Lin Mengya just smiled apologetically, and drank up the tonic soup that Qinghu prepared for her.
In fact, she didn't know how long she could hold on.
She tried her best to process all the news. Relying on the fast processing speed of the Shen Nung system, her progress in processing the news had reached an inhuman level.
But the consequence was mental exhaustion.
Lin Mengya felt that she was like a spinning top that was overloaded at every moment.
Fortunately, the results of her desperate efforts were amazing. At least for now, she hadn't missed any clues.
"Hey, who sent this news?"
The pile of letters in front of her dropped at an amazing speed. Lin Mengya picked up a letter on the table and looked at it carefully.
"I don't have any impression of this. It's strange. It's not a letter used by our hall to send messages. But since it can be sent to you, it must be sent back by our people. "
Qinghu looked at it over and over again, feeling a little strange.
In Sanjue Hall, all the news would be sent to the upper level after being summarized by the branch hall.
Of course, the speed of summarization was extremely fast, and it wouldn't delay the spread of the news at all.
Because of this, all the sources of news in Sanjue Hall were well-documented. It was to prevent some people from falsifying information and colluding with outsiders.
But this letter was placed in a crumpled envelope. When she opened it, she only felt that the handwriting was a little messy at first glance.
But when Lin Mengya read the contents clearly, she frowned.
"Moyan is in danger!"
Lin Mengya was a little tired after being overloaded for a long time.
Due to his excitement, he suddenly stood up, but his head immediately felt dizzy.
Qinghu immediately supported Lin Mengya, who was about to fall, and took the letter from her hand.
He hurriedly finished reading it two or three times. Qinghu, who had always been calm, also changed his face.
"How … how is this possible?"
As if he had seen a ghost, Qinghu stared at the letter in front of him, as if he wanted to burn a hole in the letter.
"I've long expected that Moyan's family background might not be simple, but I didn't expect that things would become like this. Qinghu, send someone back to the capital city immediately and keep an eye on Moyan for me. We absolutely cannot let those people find him! "
