One Piece of Song Dynasty

Emperor Tianzuo said with a livid face: "Tell me the truth, what is going on? Why is Yu Liyan missing?"

The palace maid was sobbing and said: "Reporting to the emperor, when I got up this morning, I planned to help the princess get up, but no one responded after knocking on the door for a long time. It's not like this usually. So I quietly opened the door and went in to take a look. There was nothing on the bed. There was no one, there was no one in the whole room, so I panicked. I searched all over the imperial city where the princess often went, but couldn't find the princess, so I came to report to the emperor."

Emperor Tianzuo was just about to get angry when he heard a "report" outside the door. A guard ran in and knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, many guards in the imperial city were knocked unconscious last night, including all the guards near the eldest princess's chamber. faint."

Emperor Tianzuo said angrily: "Let's go, I want to see Yu Liyan's bedroom. You go and notify Xiao Fengxian, Li Chuwen and others and ask them to come over quickly."

The guard replied: "Yes, Your Majesty."

Emperor Tianzuo came to Yu Liyan's residence with his maid and others. Emperor Tianzuo searched around Yu Liyan's dormitory and found nothing unusual.

The commander of the guards next to him said: "To inform the emperor, no traces of fighting were found in the princess's bedroom. I only found a small amount of this on the ground at the door."

Emperor Tian Zuo looked at it and smelled it and said, "This is the fragrant ashes."

The commander of the guards nodded and said: "Your Majesty is right, it is the incense ash that is used to mix the fragrance. I believe that the bad guys used the incense to put the princess into a deep sleep before entering the palace and kidnapping her away."

Emperor Tianzuo asked: "It's possible to find the source of this confusing fragrance."

The commander of the guards replied: "Back to the emperor, there are many people buying and selling incense. It is difficult to find out the identity of the real buyer."

Emperor Tian Zuo nodded and said: "Yes, but there are still clues. Are there any casualties among the guards who were knocked unconscious last night? Did they see the true face of the criminal last night?"

The guard commander replied: "Your Majesty, my subordinates have not found any other clues. There were no casualties among the guards last night. They were just knocked unconscious. My subordinates asked that they had not seen them before they were knocked unconscious." Any bad guy."

Just as Emperor Tianzuo was about to say something, Xiao Fengxian, Li Chuwen and other ministers came. Xiao Fengxian and others knelt down and said, "I am here to pay my respects to the emperor. I wonder why the emperor is so anxious to summon us."

Emperor Tian Zuo snorted coldly: "Come in and take a look for yourselves. My beloved daughter Yu Liyan, Princess of Shu, was kidnapped by gangsters last night. I asked my bodyguard commander to talk to you carefully. After you listen, take a look at this matter." what to do."

After receiving the order, Emperor Tianzuo's bodyguard commander reported the details of the incident and all existing clues to the ministers.

After listening to the report from the commander of the guards, Xiao Qian, the general of the country, said: "Reporting to the emperor, this matter is obviously a premeditated kidnapping incident against the princess. The top priority now is to seal off the entire Xijin Mansion. After the gangsters kidnapped the princess of Shu, He will definitely be sent out of the city, but it is not an easy task to send a living person out of the city. A carriage is definitely needed, and kidnapping the princess is definitely not something ordinary people can do, and the carriage is definitely not for ordinary people. The emperor asked the emperor to seal off the Xijin Mansion and strictly check the carriages in the city that were not used by the common people. See which family's carriage has left the city, and which family will be suspected. If it is found that the princess of Shu has not been sent out of the city, then the emperor Then we can search the princess's whereabouts from house to house in the city. If the princess has been sent out of the city, then the emperor can also send people out of the city to search based on the clues found."

Emperor Tianzuo was about to nod his head in agreement with Xiao Qian's approach when Xiao Fengxian stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, I do not agree with the action of the general who governs the country. Although the action of the general is more appropriate, it is now a troubled period in the Liao Dynasty. Your Majesty It is not appropriate to start a big war in Xijin Mansion, as this will cause panic among the people."

Emperor Tianzuo was slightly angry and said: "What should I do with my daughter? I won't look for her anymore."

Xiao Fengxian replied: "Back to the emperor, it's not that we don't look for it, but we look for it privately. The emperor can order the city gates of Xijin Prefecture to strictly check the passing vehicles. The emperor can also order people to secretly investigate the carriages that have left the city. The emperor can also send people in the city. Search secretly for the whereabouts of the princess. If the princess is in the city, I believe that the emperor will find the princess sooner or later."

Emperor Tianzuo thought for a moment and said, "Okay, then I'll do as Aiqing says. Yeludi Ligu ordered you to be solely responsible for the search for the princess."

Yelu Diligu came out and said, "Yes, Your Majesty, I will obey your orders."

Emperor Tianzuo asked: "Then who do you think is responsible for the princess's affairs and what is the purpose of it?"

Li Chuwen stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, judging from what the bad guys did, they didn't want to make things worse. It probably wasn't the Jin people who did it."

Emperor Tianzuo was surprised and said: "How can Li Aiqing say this?"

Li Chuwen replied: "Back to the emperor, the gangsters did not kill any of the guards last night, they just knocked them unconscious. From this, I guess that the gangsters did not want to make the matter a big deal. If they were people sent by the Jin Kingdom, they would definitely not do this. As a general rule, I think the criminal must have some request. Your Majesty might as well wait a few days to see if the criminal will send a letter of redemption, then you will know the purpose."

Emperor Tianzuo said thoughtfully: "Well, Aiqing is right."

Xiao Fengxian came out and said: "Your Majesty, no matter what the gangster's purpose is for kidnapping the princess, the Emperor should strengthen the defense of the Imperial City. This time the gangster can kidnap the princess so easily, which shows that there are many loopholes in the Imperial City Guard. big."

Emperor Tian Zuo nodded and said, "Ai Qing is right. It is time to strengthen the defense of the imperial city. I will leave this matter to you, Master Xiao."

Xiao Monk Nu replied: "Yes, Your Majesty, I will obey your orders."

Just when Emperor Tianzuo was discussing Yelu Yuliyan's affairs with the ministers, Niu San and others were approaching the border of Song and Liao with Yelu Yuliyan. At this time, Niu San had already given Yelu Yuliyan a comfortable car. carriage.

Because we were walking on a small road, the road conditions were not good and the road was bumpy. Just after entering the Song Dynasty, Yelu Yuliyan finally woke up from the bumps.

After waking up, Yelu Yuliyan had a headache. After waking up a little, he found that his hands and feet were tied. When he looked at the surrounding environment, he seemed to be on a carriage. Yelu Yuliyan felt that something was wrong and shouted: " Where is this and why am I tied up?”

Niu San, who was sitting on the carriage, heard the sound and opened the door to take a look: "Hey, the princess is awake."

As soon as Yelu Yuliyan heard that the other party was speaking in Chinese and knew his identity, he asked vigilantly: "Who are you? Since you know the identity of this princess, why are you still tying me up? You are not afraid of my father's censure. Well"

Niu San smiled and said: "Princess Yu Liyan, how can we bring you to our master's house if we don't tie you up."
