When they arrived at the Queen Mother's palace, the Emperor and the Queen immediately bowed to her and said, "Greetings, Mother."
"Greetings to the Queen Mother. Do you also want to know about the selection?" The Emperor stood up and asked without waiting for the Queen Mother to speak.
The Queen Mother glanced at the Emperor and said, "I am not responsible for your selection. As long as the Queen is fine, I will not interfere. I asked you to come here because of other things. Beibei has left Kyoto."
The emperor and the queen were both stunned, and the emperor couldn't help but ask, "What happened? Did Beibei suffer any injustice?"
This is not right. These days, the news I received is that Beibei is bullying people. Those casinos are so scared that they dare not open their doors.
The Queen Mother sighed, "Didn't you receive the news? Jiang Hu is missing. When this girl heard about it, she ran off to look for him."
The Emperor and the Empress looked at each other. They knew Jiang Hu, after all, he was Xiaoman's disciple, and a very outstanding person!
"He's missing. I really don't know. I'll send someone to check and protect them both."
The Queen glanced at the Emperor. This guy didn't understand what the Queen Mother was worried about. She couldn't help but laugh: "Are you worried that Bei Bei and Jiang Hu are getting too close? Or are you worried that Bei Bei has other intentions?"
The emperor was stunned for a moment: "Oh, right, Beibei is not a child anymore, and he cares so much about Jiang Hu, then this..."
The Queen Mother glared at the Emperor and said, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
The Queen thought that what the Emperor said made sense, and although Jiang Hu's background was a bit poor, he was Xiaoman's disciple after all, and his future achievements would not be bad.
"Mother, are you dissatisfied with Jiang Hu? But according to Bei Bei's status, there are not many people in the Great Zhou Dynasty who have a status that matches Bei Bei."
That's true. The Queen Mother snorted, "I'm not dissatisfied with Jiang Hu, but I think the emperor's words are not appropriate. A daughter's reputation is still important. Don't talk nonsense. As for Beibei's future, don't ask her to do anything. As long as she is happy, that's all."
The emperor also realized that his words were inappropriate and smiled awkwardly: "Yes, mother, don't be angry, it's my fault. Don't worry, I will go back and send someone to deal with this matter now, okay?"
The Queen Mother nodded and said, "I am just worried. You said that Jiang Hu is missing. If she goes, how can she be as powerful as Jiang Hu? Why did I feel so soft-hearted and let her go? Well, don't waste your words on me here. Go find someone to protect her."
The emperor could only stand up and say, "Okay, okay, I'll go now. Queen..."
The Queen Mother stared at the Emperor and said, "The Queen will stay here. Are you still worried that I will make her suffer?"
The emperor felt that he was wronged. He just wanted to ask the queen to stay here to comfort his mother. He said, "What the mother said is right. Then I will leave."
The Queen Mother snorted, "You should have left long ago. You've been talking for so long but no action has been taken."
This was despised, the emperor could only stand up and turn away. The queen couldn't help but raise her lips: "Mother, don't be angry."
The Queen Mother looked at the Queen and said, "Queen, tell me the truth. What do you think of the Emperor's selection of girls? You should do as I say and select a few more ugly girls. Let them serve him every day. Let's see if he dares to participate in the selection."
The Queen laughed and said, "Mother, this won't do. Those who can participate in the selection are all beautiful, and the selection is the idea of many ministers, and the Emperor doesn't want it. Don't worry, mother, I can prepare everything for the harem."
The Queen Mother sighed and said, "That's fine, Queen. I'm sorry to have wronged you."
How could she not feel wronged? But in this position, she had to bear this pressure. Fortunately, this pressure did not overwhelm her. The queen smiled at the queen mother and said, "My mother is so kind."
The Queen Mother smiled and looked outside the hall with some concern: "I wonder how Beibei is doing now? Has he found a place to rest at this late hour?"
At this time, Beibei, who was being talked about by the Queen Mother, sneezed and frowned: "Someone must be talking about me, but I don't know who it is, and I don't know when the rain will stop."
Beibei didn't bring Cao Suixin with him this time, so his luck wasn't so good. He brought Mo Yunyao, Qingyue, and two maids who were good at martial arts.
As a result, it started to rain not long after we left the city gate. Fortunately, there was a pavilion where people could hide from the rain and wind. Qingyue and others also found wood to make a fire, otherwise they would have frozen to death after climbing all night.
Qingyue looked at Beibei and said, "Master, let's stay here for one night and wait until the rain stops before leaving. Otherwise, it will be too dangerous."
Although it won't snow in this weather, it is raining and the environment is very bad. Mo Yunyao also sneezed: "Beibei, I think Aunt Qingyue is right. Let's stay here tonight. Jiang Hu is so capable, nothing will happen to him."
Jiang Hu was in trouble at this time, and I'm afraid some people were calculating. The day Beibei left Kyoto, everyone in Kyoto, including those who ran gambling houses, were happy.
Duke Wei smiled and called Qian Dong over: "I don't know who is so capable that he could get the princess out of the city. Now that she has left Kyoto, go and get everyone back from the casino and open it for business."
In just one day, the casinos in Kyoto were revived. Gamblers also started to go out. Without Princess Ankang, everything in Kyoto was so prosperous and beautiful.
Of course Beibei didn't know that at this moment, Beibei was still sleeping on Mo Yunyao! In a blink of an eye, it was the next day. Beibei and his group were lucky enough that the weather cleared up.
Although there were still some potholes and mud on the road, it did not affect the group of people's journey. Qingyue took out the prepared food, and the group ate breakfast and started to set off again.
After two days of traveling, they arrived at the Supervisory Committee. Beibei's portrait was hung in the hall of the Supervisory Committee, and everyone recognized him wherever he went.
When everyone saw Beibei coming, they all stepped forward and saluted: "Greetings, Princess."
"Hello, my lord. The vice president is over there. I will take you there."
Jiang Hu was working outside, and the person in charge of the entire Supervisory Committee became Mu Yeyin. Although Mu Yeyin was young, his work style was somewhat ruthless.
Seeing Beibei coming, she stood up all of a sudden: "Sister, you are here."
Beibei nodded. Mu Yeyin had already told the guide to go down, and then asked Beibei to sit down at his seat, and then he continued: "The place where Jiang Hu last sent news was a village. The geographical environment of this village is very remote. And he went there to receive a batch of weapons. Now the batch of weapons and Jiang Hu are gone."
A village? The people of the Great Zhou Dynasty, before the establishment of the Great Zhou, it was a chaotic country. So many people, in order to avoid disasters, hid in the mountains. So there are many villages in remote places in the Great Zhou, and most of these villages are somewhat special.
Bei Bei knew this, and frowned as he looked at Mu Ye Yin: "Find someone to take charge, and let's go over and take a look together."
No matter what, Jiang Hu's ability is there, and he disappeared, which proves that he still has some ability. Beibei is not so arrogant as to think that he is invincible.
So we still have to bring people with us. Of course, the person with the highest martial arts skills here and the one with mysterious abilities is Mu Yeyin, so naturally we have to bring people with us.
This was what Mu Yeyin had in mind when he sent the message to Bei Bei. He looked at Bei Bei with a smile and said, "Well, I have found a replacement. I can leave now."
Since everything was arranged, Beibei led the people directly to the village where Jiang Hu disappeared. The people from the Supervisory Committee breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Beibei leave.
Beibei herself didn't know why she was so unwelcome wherever she went. Mu Yeyin also brought her guards and headed towards the remote Wangjia Village.
The village where Jiang Hu disappeared was Wangjia Village. After reaching a certain point, there was a mountain road and horses could not go up, so the horses were left behind. The group of people hiked up the mountain, carrying a lot of things.
In addition, the weather was cold now, and the biting wind in the woods made it extremely difficult to walk. The group didn't walk very far in the whole morning.
Beibei sighed and looked at the road in front of him: "How far is it from here to Wangjia Village?"
Well, it's hard to say. Mu Yeyin shook his head: "According to the distance you said, it will take about five or six days. There's no other way. It's hard to travel now."
There are still five or six days left. If Jiang Hu really encounters danger, he will die in five or six days. Beibei was a little upset: "If I had known this would happen, I would have brought Xiaoying with me. At least let her take us in."
There is a mount but he has to come here to suffer. But there is no other way, since things have come to this, he can only hurry on: "Okay, everyone, get up and hurry on, we need to find a place to stay at night."
Mo Yunyao and the others had no choice but to stand up and continue on their way. Fortunately, by walking all the time, they were able to maintain their body temperature, so at least they were not cold anymore.
A group of people were traveling through the deep mountains and forests. They were lucky enough to find a cave at night. They stayed in it for one night and got up again the next day to continue their journey.
Beibei was speechless. He had been traveling so fast these days that he was completely lost. This Jiang Hu, is he a bit crazy? Did he find some important clue that made him come to such a place
And Wangjia Village was really remote. At least it was much more remote than the places she had been to before, and even horses couldn't get there.
