One of the Imperial Guards shouted, "Who is it?!"
But there was no movement around. After all, they were well-trained and reacted very quickly. Several people took out tinders to try to relight the torches. At this time, a Yulin Guard heard a muffled sound from the side, like the sound of something heavy falling. He suddenly felt a little scared and didn't care about the torches. He first raised the tinder and moved towards the place where the sound came from. He saw at a glance that the person who fell to the ground was not someone else, but the driver. He was immediately horrified: "Come here quickly!"
Then he took the lead and rushed towards the carriage.
At this time, the carriage had already turned around and ran in the opposite direction. They quickly tried to stop it, but the other side obviously had another man, who jumped out from somewhere and entangled them.
The carriage soon disappeared, and the people who had entangled them did not really want to fight them to the death. Seeing that their goal was achieved, they retreated one after another. By the time they re-lit the torches for illumination, there was no trace of the carriage.
Seeing this, the other people suddenly became anxious and asked, "What should we do? Should we go back and ask for help?"
They were clearly escorting the county lady. If anything happened to Su Yao, not only would they lose their jobs, they might even lose their lives.
Sun Chuan, the leading Yulin Guard, did not move. He just brushed the dust off his sleeves, shook his head and said softly, "We should go get reinforcements, but not go back. Let's go and take a look."
Want to take a look
The others were a little confused, looking at the dark road ahead, not knowing where to go to find someone. Besides, even if they could find someone, they didn't know how many people there were and what their identities were. What would be the point of going rashly? Not only would they not be able to rescue anyone, but they would also be wiped out.
At this time, the carriage had been running fast on the road for a while. The coachman turned his head and looked back. He did not find any pursuers, so he showed a smug smile, but was a little confused. He didn't know why he didn't hear any crying or shouting in the carriage. But then he thought, the speed was too fast just now. They had already found out the situation in the carriage. There were only two women, and it was common for them to faint along the way. So he did not stop to check, but drove the carriage towards the designated place.
When the day dawned, he finally arrived at the place that had been scheduled before. He stopped the carriage and breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, his whole body was soaked with sweat, but he didn't care at all. He greeted the gatekeeper, and the door of the ordinary-looking bungalow with a yard creaked open.
When Li Yun drove the carriage into the yard, there were already people waiting in the corridor. They turned around when they heard the noise and found him. It was Cui Cheng who called out and then quickly walked up to him and asked, "Did you succeed?!"
As he spoke, he went to look at the carriage.
Li Yun snorted and smiled with smugness: "Of course I succeeded. My father has been leading horses for His Highness since he was a child. I also learned my riding skills with the young master..." He said a few words and asked, "Where is the young master?"
Cui Cheng nodded at him, indicating that the person was in the hut.
Li Yun trotted towards the hut and knocked on the door excitedly: "Master, I brought the person back to you!"
He was Li Jiamin's confidant, so he naturally knew his master's thoughts. Su Yao in the car caused his master to be confined to his hometown in disgrace, and even lost his title. It was no exaggeration to say that they had a deep hatred. It was precisely because of this that his master insisted on setting a trap to get Su Yao here when he heard that Su Yao was going to return to Beijing early.
The door creaked open and Li Yun hurried in. He saw Li Jiamin talking to someone and stopped talking and waited aside. After Li Jiamin sent the person away, he bent over and called out "Young Master".
"Is it done?" Li Jiamin asked. Seeing Li Yun nod with a happy face, the corners of his mouth twitched with a hint of sarcasm, and then asked again: "Is it going well?"
"It's the same as what you heard." Li Yun walked over to help him pour water, his movements were very smooth. "There were only six people escorting them. Our people first put out their torches, and then they found a secluded and dark place to attack. They couldn't catch up. I have already brought the carriage here."
Li Jiamin frowned: "People are missing, they must go back to report the news, and soon a large number of people will come to search, take the carriage somewhere else and burn it!"
Li Yun was startled and only then realized the question. He exclaimed and responded hastily, turning around and running out without caring about anything else. Li Jiamin frowned at him and followed him out. He saw the carriage parked in the middle of the yard at a glance.
The carriage was a carriage with a red tasseled canopy, and it was also a carriage that complied with the regulations of the Earl's Mansion, being sturdy and spacious.
He narrowed his eyes.
Thinking that Su Yao was in the carriage at this moment, he felt a strange sense of revenge in his heart.
I don't know how this woman who always holds her head high and looks stubborn will react at this moment. Isn't she very calm? Hasn't she always thought she was powerful? So at this moment, is she still the same
He went down the steps, sneered, and ordered Cui Cheng: "Open the carriage and get them down."
Cui Cheng responded with a "yes" and quickly pried open the carriage door, but then he couldn't help but turn around with his eyes wide open, and said in shock: "Master, there's no one inside!"
No one?!
Before Li Jiamin could react, Li Yun jumped up first: "How could there be no one?! We followed them all the way, and we saw her and her girl get on the carriage in the camp with our own eyes! We followed them all the way!"
He rushed to the side of the carriage and looked over in disbelief, but when he looked inside, he found that the carriage was indeed empty. Apart from a small table lying here and there, there was nothing else.
How could that be?!
His face changed drastically, and he turned around in horror to look at Li Jiamin's stammering explanation: "Master, no... I clearly... "
He clearly saw Su Yao and the girl get on the carriage. They followed the carriage all the way until the carriage and the escorting Yulin Guards stopped to rest, and then they took action.
How is it possible that two healthy people disappeared
Li Jiamin had already walked towards the carriage with an ugly look on his face. There was nothing in the carriage, and he could see everything inside at a glance. His eyes suddenly became gloomy and perverse. Suddenly, he punched the door of the carriage and ordered sternly: "Go! Everyone leave here!"
That girl has always been cunning and weird. Now that she is not in the carriage, she must have some other conspiracy!
