Chapter 456: Not a Bride, Be an Old Mother 54
“Your Majesty! There is a mark here!”
As soon as Xiao Cen finished speaking, someone came to report it. The mark was really hidden, carved on a piece of paper. There were small stones everywhere, and they were also thrown into the bushes on the side of the path.
If it weren’t for some luck, even if I saw it, I wouldn’t take it seriously.
Mu Qing took the stone from the hands of the people below and rubbed the dirt and melted snow on it with his hands, "Master, it was left by our people, and there are many people on the other side!"
With that said, Mu Qing handed the stone to Xiao Cen.
The soldiers under his command have their own way of marking. The mark on their hands refers to the number of enemies, which is thousands.
On the battlefield, this number is nothing, but this is the suburbs of Beijing!
Although they have gone beyond the confines of the capital, they are still at the feet of the emperor. There are thousands of people. It is difficult to hide even if they are hidden, let alone the number of people who have been seen.
Those who are not noticed, there may be more.
Such a powerful force went all the way into the city and risked their lives to lead people from the gate of Pingyang Prince's Mansion, but in the end they only captured a girl. This is really strange no matter how you look at it.
Xiao Cen did not immediately order the troops to continue tracking. Instead, he rode his horse and stopped in silence for a while. He held the reins with one hand and stroked the pattern on the stone with the other, "Mu Qing."
"What do you think the purpose of those people is to kidnap Dong Ling'er? To offend the entire palace for a girl, isn't the difference between what you pay and what you get in return too big?"
This question , Mu Qing could not refute, but instead frowned deeply, "Maybe the other party is sure that we will take care of the people who captured the palace, and we may lead the snake out of the hole."
This is the only one so far. All the reasons I can think of.
But Mu Qing still had something to say.
That is to say, in his opinion, it is unbelievable that the gangsters who came from unknown origin kidnapped Dong Ling'er.
Even though Dong Linger is just a girl, just a maid beside the princess.
He had seen Dong Ling'er helping the princess with her accounts. He had such a clear mind that he couldn't even understand it from the side, but Dong Ling'er could spot something wrong at a glance.
He also went to the restaurant that Dong Linger took over.
All kinds of novel ideas are endless.
The master chef of the restaurant was originally hired by Xiao Cen with a lot of money. Now, under the management of Dong Ling'er, his reputation is becoming more and more famous, and even meals need to be reserved in advance.
Many nobles from well-known families have to get a sign in advance if they want to visit. Those literati and poets regard it as an elegant thing to eat in that restaurant.
These are the benefits of Dong Ling'er's business.
Putting aside the relationship with the palace, Dong Ling'er is an extremely outstanding person!
Unfortunately, Mu Qing knew very well that Dong Ling'er could not leave the palace, so in the eyes of the prince she would only be a servant. Her value and shining points were not not unrecognized, but she was not able to reach the level of being cared about. .
It was too complicated to explain to the prince. Mu Qing chose to shut up. It would be better to do less than to do more. The final result would not make any difference anyway.
Fortunately, Huangtian paid off and chased for more than half an hour before Xiao Cen and his party finally found the traces of A Qing and his party.
Unfortunately, when they caught up, A Qing and his party had been beaten to pieces. Seven of the ten soldiers were left. Including A Qing and his guards, there were nine in total. personal.
Seven of them were tied up. A Qing's bodyguard and another soldier were seriously injured and lay unconscious on the ground like dead bodies. "Your Majesty, what should we do now?"
Except for A Qing and his party, there were about a hundred people in the group. They had set up several military tents and several bonfires in the valley, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and were sitting around eating wine and meat.
Mu Qingqing did not see Dong Ling'er's figure, "That person should be the young master Aqing mentioned by the princess. Old Qiao is tied to him. The subordinates feel that their condition is not good. Yes.”
Not only is it not right, it is simply angry.
Xiao Cen hummed and followed the gaze of the two people towards one of the military tents. His expression was indescribably ugly, "If I guessed correctly, Miss Dong should be there."< br>
"Huh?"
Mu Qing couldn't react for a moment.
As his mind turned around, his eyes became gloomy, "Do you want to do it now?"
"Move, leave a few questions, and kill the rest..." Xiao Cen was not one to dawdle, and he knew that the people in front of him might only be one-tenth of the group.
But if you can't protect the person you want to protect, what's the use of wiping out all the enemies?
He doesn't want revenge, he just wants to take his people back intact!
The group of people in the valley didn't know that they had become turtles in a urn. They drank heavily and ate meat, with a fishy smell on their bodies. From time to time, they would look at their captives with contempt.
Old Qiao never stopped yelling and cursing. Only Ah Qing, staring at the military tent, never moved his eyes. He remembered the faces of every man who walked in and came out with his pants lifted.
Everyone!
"Boy, what have you been staring at?" Another person walked out of the tent, accidentally met A Qing's eyes and walked towards him.
There was a piece of cloth wrapped around his wrist. It was pink and embroidered with a small piece of lotus. "Why, are you envious?"
"Why don't we let you play with us after we have all enjoyed ourselves?" "
As the man spoke, he held the piece of fabric and slapped A Qing's cheek.
But soon, the man's harsh laughter stopped abruptly, and was replaced by a miserable scream, "Ah!"
The man's eyes widened, desperately trying to remove his He pulled his hand back and even punched A Qing on the head again and again, but A Qing's eyes were bulging and his teeth were biting the finger, but he would not let go.
He bit off his finger in shock and watched the man holding his hand rolling on the ground before spitting out a piece of his finger and laughing despite the blood in his mouth.
Smiling and smiling, even his eyes turned red, "Does it feel good? I can make you feel even better, do you want to try it?"
Logically speaking, it's just a prisoner. If he dared to resist, he would just kill him directly, but this group of people did not take action. The leader of the group even gave the provocative man two feet before he was bandaged.
These people are really too strict in their tone.
Apart from calling each other by code names, they didn’t say a single word of direction, their identity, where they came from, where they were going, what they were arresting people for, and who the people on top were.
"Good boy! What a good guy!"
When the group was far away and no one came to provoke anymore, Old Qiao, who was tied to the side, was full of admiration in his eyes, "Fuck this gang People are ruining our girls."
"We should eat their flesh, drink their blood, and let them die without a burial place!"
