The Adventures of the Crying Princess

Chapter 40 Falling into the Trap

While his master and uncle were distracted, Bai Yimeng rushed out of the room and climbed over the wall to leave Prince Yi's Mansion.

Just as she was secretly delighted with her own cleverness, she looked up and saw Bai Yinan leaning against a tree with his arms folded, staring at her.

"Go back and don't force me to beat my sister in the middle of the day." Bai Yinan's voice was not loud, but it was very intimidating.

"I went to save people, not to make trouble. Lao Su was arrested." God knows how much courage Bai Yimeng must have mustered to say this.

"Don't make me say it a second time, go back!"

Bai Yimeng pouted, looking pitiful, "If mother were here, would you treat me like this... I'm so pitiful..."

She squeezed out two tears, and indeed, Bai Yinan softened his heart. "I didn't really hit you, why are you crying?"

Bai Yimeng found her elder brother's weakness, and the drizzle turned into heavy rain. She cried at the top of her lungs, "Wow... you are so mean to me, if mother knew, she would be very sad..."

"Okay, I'll go with you. You are not allowed to act silly, do you hear me?" Bai Yinan was usually very fierce and couldn't stand it when his sister cried.

Especially when she mentioned her mother, Bai Yinan felt even worse, "That day, my brother had a bad temper and shouldn't have hit her..." After explaining for a long time, Bai Yinan looked up and found that his sister had disappeared.

Please, big brother. Bai Yimeng quickly arrived at the Qi Wang Mansion. Facing the Qi Wang, he still used the simple and rough old method. Since the last time the Qi Wang Mansion was haunted, most of the palace guards, secret guards, maids and old women have left.

This time, Bai Yimeng revisited the old place and felt obviously more relaxed, but also less fun.

When a pale face appeared in front of King Qi, screams broke out again in the King Qi's mansion.

Bai Yimeng was puzzled. When these people did bad things, they were very brave. Why did they become so brave now?

The King of Qi buried his head in the quilt and said, "It's not me, it's not me, it's my mother who asked me to do it...ah...please leave now..."

Bai Yimeng almost laughed out loud. What's the matter? Even his own mother was betrayed? He found a pair of scissors and cut a hole in the quilt, not too big or too small, just enough to reveal the face of the King of Qi. Bai Yimeng made a face at him, and the King of Qi fainted on the spot.

"I fainted again. It's boring." He found a basin of cold water and poured it over his head. The King of Qi screamed, "Sir, this is not right... Sir... this is not right either... Anyway, you are so magnanimous, please let me go."

Bai Yimeng stretched out his voice, summoning his inner strength to produce a strong feeling, "The Su family kid you captured was raised by me. If you capture him, I will capture you."

"Release them, I will release them right now... Immediately..." As soon as he finished speaking, the King of Qi sat up suddenly and clapped his hands. In an instant, the candles in the room lit up. A dozen archers prepared to shoot.

Suddenly, hundreds of archers appeared, as if they were hiding somewhere waiting for Bai Yimeng to show up.

Bai Yimeng boasted of his strong internal strength, but he didn't notice it just now. Curious, Bai Yimeng couldn't help but look around, hoping to find a secret room where he could hide. Finally, he noticed the raised floor tile near the door.

"Brother Long, maybe I should call you Princess Jing'an. Aren't you very powerful? Last time I was not prepared and you took advantage of me." King Qi stepped forward and pulled off Bai Yimeng's mask. "I want to see whether your movements are faster or my bow and arrow is faster this time."

Bai Yimeng was a woman dressed as a man, so she was not panicked when the mask was torn off. She turned around and grabbed the King of Qi's neck.

……

As night fell, Bai Yimeng had not returned yet. Bai Yinan became restless and stood up several times to go out to look for her, but in the end he chose to endure it.

"I will go to the Prince of Qi's mansion to ask for the person." Yuwen Ji could not hold back any longer, so he stood up and walked out, but was stopped by Luo Jingran.

Luo Jingran had just come back from gathering information and brushed off the snow on his body. "Don't worry."

"Is there any news about Xiaoqi?" Lord Longgu couldn't help but ask.

"The Qi Wang Mansion is now blocked by iron. Our people can't get in, and we don't have any news at all." Luo Jingran thought for a moment, "It's useless to be anxious now. If we rashly ask the Qi Wang for people, we will be passive. The Qi Wang would like us to lose our composure."

That being said, who among the people present could sit still? Bai Yinan stood up and said, "I am also a person who deserves to die. It is appropriate for me to save my younger sister."

"What nonsense! No one deserves to die. The Bai family has been loyal for generations, how can they be the ones who deserve to die?" Doctor Guo glared at Bai Yinan unhappily, "You are the commander-in-chief of the three armies, why are you so impatient?"

That was his biological sister, how could he keep calm? Bai Yinan did not refute and sat back obediently. But he became more and more irritated.

Just after midnight, Yi Tong ran in, "Master, there's a kid outside, he calls himself Maomao, and he said you know him. He wants to see you..."

"Please come in!" Yuwen Ji breathed a sigh of relief, as if he saw hope.

Soon, Maomao was brought in. When he saw Yuwen Ji, he didn't even greet him. Instead, he held his arm and walked out. The child's eyes were red, obviously he had been crying.

"Maomao, don't worry. Tell me first, why are you here?"

"Young Master's sister is in trouble..." Maomao was a child after all, and he started crying before he finished speaking. This made everyone even more anxious.

Although he didn't know who Maomao was, judging from Yuwen Ji's expression, he probably knew Bai Yimeng. He guessed that the "young master" the child was talking about must be Bai Yimeng.

Based on the principle that there is strength in numbers, everyone decided to follow Maomao to find someone.

It was strange to walk through the empty streets late at night. Soon they came to a refugee area at the intersection of West Street, which was usually full of beggars.

The deafening sound of dog barking could be heard from a long distance away. When I got closer, I saw that a dozen big dogs had surrounded Bai Yimeng.

Except for Doctor Guo, everyone present knew that Bai Yimeng had been afraid of dogs since childhood. Seeing this, Yuwen Ji rushed forward without thinking and chased away a group of wild dogs, and held Bai Yimeng in his arms, "Little fool, don't be afraid, I'm here."

"Su Beichen has no martial ethics. When he saw a dog, he ran away... I won't save him next time..." Bai Yimeng cried while lying in Yuwen Ji's arms.

"Okay, let's not save him next time." Yuwen Ji patted her back gently. Yuwen Ji felt something was wrong. His hands were wet and sticky. Looking at it in the moonlight, Yuwen Ji was startled. He looked down and felt something was wrong.

"What's wrong?" Bai Yinan saw blood dripping and hurried forward to check.

"Don't make any noise yet. There might be an ambush nearby. Let's go quickly."

As soon as he finished speaking, dozens of men in black appeared. "I didn't expect that Prince Yi was harboring a traitor. I wonder if Your Majesty knows about it? Do you want to go with us on your own, or do you want us to tie you up and bring you to see Your Majesty?" The leading man in black had a provocative voice.

"Take her away quickly, leave this to me!" Bai Yinan stood in front of everyone.

"Nonsense, it's not your turn here. I haven't used force for many years, and my body is a little stiff. Go away quickly, it's adults' business, you kids have no need to meddle." Doctor Guo took out the silver needles from the medicine box, pulled them out one by one and arranged them.

"Brother, hurry up. Staying up late is bad for your health." Lord Longgu knew his senior brother's strength, so he didn't waste any words and led his disciples to break out of the encirclement.

"Such a long shot!" Doctor Guo just doesn't like to use force, but that doesn't mean he doesn't know martial arts.

Everyone retreated quickly southward. Yuwen Ji suddenly said, "You wanted to eat beef this morning, so I bought it for you. Just bear with it and we'll eat it when we get back."

Hearing Yuwen Ji say this, everyone realized something was wrong and looked over. Bai Yimeng was not picky about food, but what she disliked most was beef jerky.

"You found out? I'm sorry, Prince Yi!" The man in his arms suddenly pulled out a dagger and stabbed it into Yuwen Ji's chest. Bai Yinan was quick-witted and kicked the man away, then teleported to her and grabbed the man's neck, "Tell me, where is she?"

"She's dead, and you'll never see her again." After saying this, the impostor bit his tongue and committed suicide on the spot.

The Dragon Valley Master had already sealed several acupuncture points on Yuwen Ji's body and fed him hemostatic pills. Su Xiaobei was responsible for carrying him on his back and heading straight to Prince Yi's mansion.
