Chapter 430 Kingly Plot

Strictly speaking, this matter has nothing to do with Yang Yiyi, but this girl likes to meddle in other people's business and wants to intervene in any suspicious places she sees.

Perhaps this is the physique of a great hero.

So when she heard that Sun Wei suddenly came to her house, Yang Yiyi became interested all of a sudden.

But it doesn't matter whether she is interested or not, Sun Wei is mainly here to visit Princess Mingzhu.

It must be said that Sun Wei came at the right time.

Now it is just when Princess Mingzhu has just finished her meal and has not yet gone to bed for a nap. If it is later, Sun Wei can only wait, and no one dares to wake Princess Mingzhu up.

Maybe Sun Wei really came on time. Princess Mingzhu, who has already started yawning, actually agreed to meet Sun Wei. Maybe she is also a little interested in the Plum Blossom Guards of Yuezhou.

Of course, all the imperial guards are present.

As soon as Sun Wei entered the door, he was asked to remove all weapons and searched to confirm that there was no problem.

Due to his professional sensitivity, Sun Wei could feel more than a dozen eyes staring at him in the dark on the short walk to the main hall. If he made the slightest movement, he would be torn to pieces.

Sun Wei was mentally prepared for this. After all, he was going to see the beloved daughter of the emperor of Liuzhou. If anything went wrong, the families of these guards would probably be held accountable.

After entering the hall, Sun Wei's eyes first swept over the faces of Yang Yiyi, Li Yingluo and Zheng Yinping, and then looked at Tang Lianyu who was sitting in the lower seat, but his eyes were very hidden and not very obvious.

"I am Sun Wei, the captain of the Plum Blossom Guard, and I pay my respects to Princess Mingzhu."

He could not look directly at Princess Mingzhu, because looking directly at her would be suspected of assassinating the king. Even if Princess Mingzhu did not care about these things, with Sun Wei's identity, he could not do anything that would cause misunderstanding.

"You are from the Plum Blossom Guard? You don't look that fierce."

The princess' tone seemed a little disappointed. Li Yingluo asked the imperial guards to investigate Sun Wei's affairs, but the princess didn't know about it.

"Forget it, I will allow you to stand up and speak."

"Thank you, princess."

Sun Wei dared to stand up, still lowering his eyes.

"What on earth are the Plum Blossom Guards from Yuezhou coming to my Liuzhou?"

This usually unremarkable Princess Mingzhu now lazily leaned on the chair, but she actually had the majesty of a superior.

After all, she is a princess. Being unremarkable at ordinary times does not mean that she will be unremarkable in formal occasions.

"In reply to the princess, I am here on official business. This matter is of great importance. Please listen to me in detail."

Princess Mingzhu nodded slightly:

"Yes."

"About a month ago, my Yuezhou country was preparing for the New Year. At that time, Princess Rousi of our country wanted to go to the street to watch the lanterns. Unexpectedly, her whereabouts had been exposed. A group of people took advantage of the princess's unpreparedness and kidnapped her."

"Rousi? I remember her. When she smiles, her nose bubbles."

"..."

There is no need to bring up such things.

"You said Rousi was kidnapped. Who is so bold?"

"I don't know either. I only know that they are a group of northerners, and they have been planning for a long time."

If they hadn't planned for a long time, it would be impossible to know when the princess would go out.

"Later, after investigation, it was confirmed that some eunuchs in the palace colluded with outsiders, but beating them to death could not find the princess. The emperor was furious and ordered us to search. It may be that our search was too strict, and this group of northerners actually kidnapped the princess all the way to Luancheng."

Li Yingluo and Zheng Yinping looked at each other quietly. So far, it was really no different from what Li Chengxi guessed. Now they believed that Li Chengxi could figure it out.

"This group of people who were kidnapped by the enemy must want to transport Princess Rousi back to the north. If I remember correctly, although Yuezhou does not border the north, Jizhou to the north of Yuezhou does. If the northerners use the princess as a threat..."

"As you said, the note left by the enemy shows that they hope to form an alliance with our country and attack from both north and south to divide Jizhou together."

"Nonsense!"

Princess Mingzhu slapped the table, and the tea bowl on it jumped.

"We, the people of the Central Plains, are irreconcilable with the people outside the Great Wall. Even if we have grudges against each other, we will never join forces with the people outside the Great Wall!"

This is politically correct in the Central Plains. Anyone who dares to break this rule will be killed by the people even if he is not prosecuted by the court.

"The princess is right, so rescuing Princess Rousi before she is transported back to the north is the top priority."

The only way to transport people back to the north from Yuezhou or Liuzhou is by sea, and the blockade of Yuezhou is too strict, so this group of people took the princess to Liuzhou.

If they get on the ship, it will be impossible to stop them. After all, the sea is vast, and chasing a ship that doesn't know which route it is taking is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

"You came to see me, obviously not just to tell a story, what do you want to do?"

"I ask Princess Mingzhu to help us find Princess Rousi."

This was expected. Sun Wei must have wanted to solve it on his own before, but he failed, so he had to ask Princess Mingzhu for help.

After all, this is Liuzhou State, and it is far less convenient for the Plum Blossom Guard to act in a foreign country than in their own country. But if Princess Mingzhu said something, the local government would have to cooperate.

But although it was expected, Princess Mingzhu did not agree outright.

The reason is very simple. Regardless of whether this matter succeeds or not, the final result is that Princess Rousi is rescued, or she escapes, or the princess dies. Princess Mingzhu, as the person who provided help, must bear the responsibility.

Don’t think that this princess only knows how to play all day long. If she didn’t have a political mind and lived in the environment of the palace, she would have been dead long ago.

If the princess was rescued, everyone would be happy. Yuezhou would definitely give her a generous gift, which was equivalent to winning face for the country.

But if the person ran away, or the princess died, then this responsibility...

Taking this as an opportunity, the possibility of war between the two countries breaking out again is not impossible.

Liuzhou State seems to be singing and dancing, but in fact it has only been quiet for less than 20 years, and now it really doesn’t want to fight.

Seeing the princess thinking, Sun Wei knew that this princess was not as ignorant of the world as the rumors outside, but he was not worried, but seemed to be confident.

At this time, a palace guard came in, apologized, walked quickly and whispered a few words in Princess Mingzhu’s ear.

“General Manager Zhuo? Let him in.”

“Yes.”

The general manager mentioned in the palace must be a eunuch.

As a result, it was true. Not long after, an old eunuch in blue clothes and brisk steps came in and greeted Princess Mingzhu as soon as he saw her.

That voice really lived up to expectations, with a shrill voice.

Yang Yiyi's eyes widened obviously. This was the first time she saw a real eunuch, and it was really a bit novel.

Suddenly she wanted to ask him if he had no urination, and also wanted to ask him how he went to the toilet, but it was a bit difficult to ask with so many people present...

"General Manager Zhuo, why are you here? Can you handle the journey?"

"Thank you, Princess, for your concern. I can still hold on. After all, I have the emperor's order, so I have to come even if I have to be stabbed."

Upon hearing that there was an imperial order, Princess Mingzhu motioned General Manager Zhuo to come closer.

The latter whispered a few words in the princess's ear, and Princess Mingzhu nodded:

"In that case, okay."

She looked at Sun Wei:

"I will ask the government to help you search for Rousi's whereabouts together."

"Thank you, Princess."

Sun Wei should have made two preparations. On the one hand, he investigated by himself, and on the other hand, he sent someone to Pingkang City to tell the emperor of Liuzhou as an envoy of Yuezhou.

Princess Mingzhu didn't dare to take this responsibility, but the emperor probably thought that helping would be beneficial to Liuzhou State, so he ordered the eunuch to come and convey it.

Sun Wei was a thoughtful person.
