Tai Chi Palace.
"Your Majesty..."
The person who went to deliver the edict to Li Zexuan bowed down to Li Er and was trembling, not knowing how to report to Li Er.
"Huh? Where is Li Zexuan?"
Li Er frowned and asked displeasedly.
"Your Majesty, Sir Li... Sir Li said he is not free!"
The servant who delivered the order felt Li Er's sharp gaze and hurriedly told the truth. Of course, he omitted the first two words of Li Zexuan's sentence.
Qin Qiong, who was standing aside, looked calm on the surface, but he was stirred up in his heart, secretly thinking that Li Zexuan was really brave.
Li Er slammed the table hard and said angrily: "You are so outrageous, this kid is so lawless, come on!"
Qin Qiong secretly thought something was wrong, and quickly prepared to plead for mercy, when he saw another chamberlain hurriedly came in, bowed and said:
"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wishes to see you!"
Li Er suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "Let him in!"
"promise!"
After a while.
"My son, I pay my respects to my father!"
Li Er said "hmm" and asked, "Chengqian, what do you want?"
"Back to my father, I am here for Li Zexuan today!"
Li Zexuan patted his butt and left. As a friend, of course he had to wipe his butt for him, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
"Hmph, you still dare to mention that brat to me. I summoned him, but he didn't even dare to come. He is getting bolder and bolder." Li Er said angrily.
Li Chengqian said quickly: "Father, please calm down. Li Zexuan has a reason for his troubles. Please listen to me and speak slowly!"
Li Chengqian then told everything about what had just happened. When Qin Qiong heard that Han Yuxi was in trouble, she immediately stepped forward and said:
"Your Majesty, this Han Yuxi is the adopted daughter that I just recognized. Unexpectedly, she was kidnapped by gangsters today. I beg your Majesty to allow me to lead someone to rescue her!"
Li Er was surprised and said: "Shubao actually recognized an adopted daughter?"
Qin Qiong nodded anxiously and said, "Back to Your Majesty, I just recognized you yesterday."
Seeing the anxious look on Qin Qiong's face, Li Er knew that now was not the time to ask in detail, so he said, "Shu Bao, you are injured and cannot go. Someone, please send a letter to Dugu!"
"I will see your Majesty at last!"
Dugu Xin, wearing bright light armor, cupped his fists at Li Er.
Li Er ordered: "Dugu Xin, take a thousand Yu Lin Guards and immediately go to the Qinling Mountains to search for Han Yuxi's whereabouts. If the bandits resist, you can kill them without mercy."
Dugu Xin said, "Your Majesty, I don't know Han Yuxi!"
Li Er thought for a while and said, "Go to the Imperial Medical Office now, bring an uninjured villager from Hanjiazhuang, and ask him to search with you."
"promise!"
Duguxin resigned.
"Wait!"
Li Er glanced at Qin Qiong, and then added to Dugu Xin: "We must ensure the safety of Han Yuxi and Li Zexuan!"
Although he was angry with Li Zexuan just now, he did not want Li Zexuan to die. He also admired Li Zexuan's talent very much.
"I will obey your orders!"
"Your Majesty, I want to go home and send my generals out to search. Please give me your permission!"
Qin Qiong said with a sad face.
At this time, it was definitely impossible to continue discussing the locust plague, so Li Er nodded and said: "Uncle Bao, take care of yourself and go!"
… …
After a while, Li Er was the only one left in the hall. He thought for a long time and shouted: "Pass on Li Junxian!"
Then, a young man in fine attire came in from outside the palace. He bowed and said, "General Li Junxian pays homage to your Majesty!"
Li Er nodded, briefly told Li Junxian about Han Yuxi's arrest, and then ordered: "Junxian, lead 500 cavalry to find out what the background of this group of thieves is, how dare they attack in the capital." There’s trouble nearby!”
"The general will obey the order!"
… …
At the same time, Cheng Mansion.
"What? You said Han Yuxi was arrested?"
Cheng Yaojin's eyes widened and he exclaimed.
"Yes, Dad, please hurry up and ask someone to help find him. The child is going crazy when he sees Xiaoxuan!"
Cheng Chumo said anxiously.
Cheng Yaojin said: "Of course we have to look for it. This is the adopted daughter that Brother Qin has just recognized. After all, she can be regarded as half of her father's adopted daughter. How can I, your father, just stand by and watch!"
After saying that, Cheng Yaojin shouted outside the house: "Zhuang Qi!"
After a few breaths, a big man came in immediately. He bowed and said, "Master!"
Cheng Yaojin said: "Zhuang Qi, you immediately take all the guards in the house and go to the Qinling area to look for Li Zexuan. If he needs your help in any way, you will do it!"
"Yes, sir!"
Zhuang Qi accepted the order and went out to find someone.
"Wait, Dad, I'll go with them!"
Cheng Chumo said anxiously. He thought of Li Zexuan's cold-blooded rage before, like a hell demon, and he was a little worried about his good brother. If he didn't go there in person, he would feel uneasy.
Cheng Yaojin nodded: "Okay, Chou Niu, you go first and go find Shu Bao for your father, and you'll come back later!"
Cheng Chumo and Zhuang Qi immediately mobilized their troops and marched towards the Qinling Mountains.
... ... ... ... ... ..
Qin Mansion.
"Sir, why are you going to court so late today?"
Mrs. Qin asked this question after she saw that other officials in the workshop had already gone home.
Qin Qiong was so impatient that he had no time to chat, so he hurriedly said:
"Madam, we don't have time to talk about this now. Han Yuxi was kidnapped, and Xiaoxuan went to look for him alone. Both of them are in danger. I have to rescue him as soon as possible."
"ah?"
Mrs. Qin was shocked at first, and then became endlessly anxious. Yesterday, Qin Qiong told him that Han Yuxi agreed to make him his adoptive father, and Mrs. Qin was extremely happy from the bottom of her heart.
She and Qin Qiong only have one son, Qin Huaiyu. Although before giving birth, she hoped that she would give birth to a son, but after giving birth, she would greedily think about how great it would be if she had a daughter.
Han Yuxi was well-behaved and strong, and she was the daughter of a benefactor. Mrs. Qin was quite satisfied with having such an adopted daughter, so she asked her servants to clean the whole house early in the morning. I was just waiting for Han Yuxi to come to visit me, but I got such bad news.
"Master, you must not let anything happen to our daughter!"
There was a hint of crying in Mrs. Qin's voice.
Qin Qiong waved his hand in annoyance, asked someone to take out a pair of his golden maces, walked to the courtyard, and shouted: "Ding Quan, quickly summon all the nursing staff in the house and follow me to save people!"
Qin Qiong couldn't care less about his injuries at the moment. He didn't want anything to happen to anyone, whether it was Li Zexuan or Han Yuxi.
"Yes, sir!"
From somewhere in the courtyard, a loud response came.
"Second brother, are you in good health? Why don't you let me take them to find you?"
When Cheng Yaojin came on horseback, he knew that Qin Qiong would not be able to sit still and might go into battle himself. He was worried that Qin Qiong's body would not be able to hold on, so he asked Cheng Chumo to go first while he came to take care of him.
"Zhijie, I'm feeling much better now. It doesn't matter, time is pressing, let's set off quickly!"
Qin Qiong waved his hand and said anxiously.
Cheng Yaojin was naturally not a mother-in-law. He saw that Qin Qiong's complexion was indeed much better than before, so he laughed and said:
"Okay, I can finally fight side by side with Brother Qin again. I, Old Cheng, want to see which group of gangsters dare to bully us! Come on!"
Qin Qiong was also filled with heroic spirit. He got on his horse, holding a golden mace in his hand, and shouted: "Follow me!"
Dozens of guards behind them got on their horses one after another and responded with a loud "promise". They were all old soldiers who had gone to battle with Qin Qiong before. At this moment, they felt as if they were on the battlefield again, and there was a bloodthirsty murderous aura in the field. Gradually spread.
"drive!"
More than seventy riders roared past like wind and lingering clouds, heading straight for Yanxing Gate in the east of Chang'an City.
