Chapter 325: Willow Forest Saves People
Prince Qingqian did not set off for Beijing immediately due to his worsening injuries. They still lived in the residence of the governor of Yiyang County.
Those people in the martial arts world did not take action easily because they were afraid of the local forces of Yiyang County Magistrates.
In the past few days, it has rained a few times in the world. The peach blossoms in the Yiyang County Magistrate’s Mansion have bloomed.
Gongzi Qingqian knew that it would be difficult for them to return to the capital safely. Therefore, he stood in front of the window and was at a loss.
"Young Master! The second shopkeeper of the escort agency asked us when we would set off?" Liu Tao bowed outside the window and said.
"There is only one way I can return to the capital!" A trace of light appeared in Gongzi Qingqian's eyes.
"Prince, please give me instructions!" Liu Tao knew that Young Master Qingqian had a good idea.
"Please come to Yiyang! No matter how brave he is, he will not kill the monarch!" Xie Han, who was far away in the capital, also thought of this idea of Prince Qingqian.
"What reason do I go to Yiyang for?" The emperor also asked Xie Han.
"Mr. Rong thought about it again!" Xie Han did not think of the reason why the emperor went to Yiyang.
Gongzi Qingqian thought of it, that was to negotiate with Linguo on border trade and permanent truce between the two countries.
Liu Tao took the gray pigeon from the Marquis of Hai’s Mansion at night. Prince Qingyue gave it to Marquis of Hai with the message sent back by Prince Qingqian. After Marquis of Hai read it, he immediately went to Beijing to meet the emperor.
The next morning, the emperor put the matter on the agenda. The Grand Sima Gongzi Jinlan said that the emperor did not have to go there in person, and he was willing to do it for him.
"The Grand Sima is in charge of the capital. This matter is decided by me and Xie Han in person!" The emperor's tone today was completely beyond the expectations of the ministers.
Although Prince Jinlan knew that the emperor was a drunkard, he could not change what the emperor said, so he could only dare not speak out.
When Prince Jinlan returned to the mansion, he ordered that he would kill Prince Qingqian before the emperor went to Yiyang.
Sima Sheng, the little nephew of the governor of Yiyang County, was kidnapped. Princess Lu Qian of Yiyang cried to death.
Gongzi Qingqian and Yiyang County Magistrate both knew the cause of the incident, so they were silent.
"Let's leave the county magistrate's mansion immediately!" Gongzi Qingqian made up his mind.
"Even if you leave, the child may not be able to come back!" The governor of Yiyang sighed with his eyes closed.
"Liu Tao! You posted a notice outside the mansion: At the hour of the morning tomorrow, exchange children in Liulin ten miles outside the Liujia Village!"
"Young Master! If they really do something, the child may not be able to come back!" Liu Tao remained silent.
"That's all! I will make arrangements, go!" Young Master Qingqian's tone could not be changed, so Liu Tao had to leave.
Gongzi Qingqian asked the Cui brothers and sisters to return to Xiaozhu, Xishan with his letter.
After reading the letter from Gongzi Qingqian, Yao Weng said to Xuanfei that the nephew of the governor of Yiyang County was kidnapped. Gongzi Qingqian asked you to set up a chronic poison array in the Shiliulin tonight!
Xuan Fei heard this and said, "No problem! This is the antidote, let Qingqian and the others take it at any time! This medicine is given to the children of the governor of Yiyang County, if he is still alive then!"
"These people actually use their children!" Yao Weng was so angry that he shivered.
After the Cui brothers and sisters gave the antidote to Gongzi Qingqian, they returned to Xiaozhu, Xishan. They also had to assist Xuanfei in setting up the formation tonight.
The ten-mile willow forest in Liujiazhuang has begun to sprout, and the tender yellow branches are stretching. From a distance, it looks like a misty yellow-green area, which is very adorable.
Gongzi Qingqian walked towards the willow forest alone. He knew that there were people hidden in the willow forest. So he stopped under a tall willow tree and waited quietly.
"You only have one?" A masked man walked out of the forest with the sleeping Sima Sheng in his arms.
"Yes! Let go of the child! I'll follow you!" Young Master Qingqian said calmly.
"How did I know you didn't set up an ambush outside?" The masked man rolled his eyes and said.
"I'm injured. Are you still afraid that you can't get out with me?" Young Master Qingqian showed a hint of ridicule.
"This child is quite cute!" The man put the child under the big willow tree where Gongzi Qingqian was standing.
Young Master Qingqian turned around and walked towards the depths of the willow forest. The masked man was always a distance from Young Master Qingqian. He knew Gongzi Qingqian's power well, so he did not dare to be careless. When they came out of the forest safely, he would attack without mercy.
Young Master Qingqian kept walking slowly, and everyone in the forest followed each other.
After a stick of incense, Gongzi Qingqian could not hear the footsteps around him, and the forest returned to silence.
"Young Master! You finally figured it out!" Liu Tao was holding Sima Sheng and waiting for Young Master Qingqian outside the ten miles of the willow forest?
"How is Jiang Liang and the others?" Gongzi Qingqian felt a little tired.
"They have removed the stakes around the Yiyang County Magistrate's Mansion. Now they are probably cooperating with the officers and soldiers to clear out the remnants of kidnappers in other places." Liu Tao followed Gongzi Qingqian with his child in his arms to report.
Gongzi Qingqian saw his carriage. He got on the carriage and took the child from Liu Tao.
Liu Tao drove the car to the Yiyang County Governor's Mansion. When the Yiyang County Governor Lu Gong saw that Prince Qingqian came back with the child in his arms, he was overjoyed. He hugged his nephew and kissed him again and again.
Princess Luqi, Yiyang, ran over from the inner courtyard. She hugged her child and she couldn't stop crying.
"I'm sorry!" Young Master Qingqian apologized to Lu Qian.
"Hey! Qingqian! This is not your fault!" Mr. Lu quickly replied.
While walking, Duke Lu told Gongzi Qingqian about the crackdown on kidnappers in Yiyang County.
Gongzi Qingqian told Duke Lu that they would not live here tonight.
Duke Lu said: "No! Those people cannot catch them all in one go! You can live with peace of mind!"
Jiang Liang came back in the evening. He took a bath and then went to Gongzi Qingqian's room to help him change the dressings.
Liu Tao had already decocted the medicine and walked in. Seeing that the young master Qingqian frowned, he asked Jiang Liang to be gentler.
Jiang Liang simply applied the wound to Gongzi Qingqian with his hands. Gongzi Qingqian didn't feel anything, but Jiang Liang's face turned red.
Liu Tao picked up the thread cloth and tied the wound carefully to Gongzi Qingqian. Then he brought the medicine to Gongzi Qingqian for him to take it.
The young master was so weak that he fell asleep soon. Liu Tao covered him with a quilt and then guarded the door of the house.
"Young master's skin is really well maintained!" Jiang Liang sat on the steps in front of the door.
"You go and rest first!" Liu Tao said to Jiang Liang.
"Okay! I'll change you in the middle of the night!" Jiang Liang slept in the ear room.
The Yiyang County Magistrate's Office strengthened its defense, so Prince Jinlan's people could not enter. They had to pass the news back to Prince Jinlan's residence in the capital.
Gongzi Jinlan did not get angry this time. He knew Gongzi Qingqian's ability. He had fought with him for many years, but wasn't he willing to give up the disadvantage? He looked at the soft heart who was cooking tea in the study.
Rouxin was guessing what was going on. She saw that Young Master Jinlan looked at her coldly, and she couldn't help but lower her head quickly.
"Send tea!" Young Master Jinlan slapped the teacup heavily on the table.
Rouxin hurried over to get the teacup. But Gongzi Jinlan held the teacup firmly and did not let go.
Chapter completed!
