He pointed at the footprints on the ground. “Her feet are so small and she’s about this tall. There’s a sweet fragrance on her.”
The guard scratched his head awkwardly and helplessly. “We were only focused on looking for you and didn’t pay attention to any girls. There are quite a few at this height, but we didn’t pay attention to their feet. As for the fragrance… Your Highness, not everyone has your sharp sense of smell.”
Chercha was silent for a moment. “Forget it. Well postpone finding him. Listen, don’t tell anyone about finding me for the time being, because the person who imprisoned me these few days is Chernan…”
Seeing that he had someone to pick him up, Xiaoxiao hid in the space for a while more in peace. She had used teleportation a little frequently in the past two days. Coupled with the expenditure of the NPCs, she did not have many points left. She was still a little short of the 10,000 points needed for the next teleportation. Hence, she walked around Xiongnu City and returned to the Great Xia military camp after realizing that there was nothing delicious or fun. It was quite useless to use points, so Xiaoxiao waited obediently for a few days. At the same time, she adjusted the soldiers’ sleep and made sure that there were enough teleportation points in the space to escape before returning to the second prince.
It had been a few days, so the second prince naturally realized that the prisoners in the secret room were gone. This made him have another guess about the identity of the thief who had come not long ago. Could it be that he was not from Great Xia but sent by Big Brother?
At the thought of this, he became even more nervous. He could not let Chercha return to the capital alive!
Hence, he immediately sealed the city and sent a large number of trusted aides to search the city.
The disappearance of Chercha and a large number of letters made him very uneasy, but he still found nothing when Xiaoxiao returned. Hence, in his anger, he vented his anger on his innocent subordinates and beheaded several people in a row.
Xiaoxiao would not pity these people. They could only blame themselves for being blind and following the wrong person. She did not know if the Xiongnu people were all bastards or only the second prince was a bastard.
Chernan’s anger and grievances had reached a certain height, but at this moment, his subordinates sent the news that he had encountered the Great Xia army and was defeated again.
He suspected that the people of Great Xia did it on purpose. They deliberately defeated them time and time again, crushing their confidence like grassland wolves toying with their prey.
Xiongnu was mumbling and Xiaoxiao couldn’t understand a word. However, this didn’t stop her from guessing this bastard’s plan when she saw that Chernan had asked someone to bring a strangely familiar woman over.
The next day, when Great Xia and Xiongnu met again, the second prince got someone to press the woman who had specially dressed up onto the city tower. At the same time, the Xiongnu envoy walked between the two armies under his guard.
Third Prince of Great Xia, if you don’t want your woman to die, put down the sword in your hand immediately!”
The distance was too far, so no one could see the woman’s appearance clearly. Deputy General Xiong and the other Deputy Generals thought that this person was bluffing, but Rong Yan did not say anything.
Yun Er and Yun San knew that even if Master thought that the person on the city gate tower was 99% not Miss, he did not dare to gamble on the remaining possibility.
Rong Yan looked up. At such a distance, even if she stood on the city wall, he wouldn’t be able to see his face clearly. However, he had a feeling that it wasn’t Xiaoxiao.
Xiaoxiao was clearly still in the border city. How could a weak woman like her travel a long way to Xiongnu City Pass? Even if she thought about it, the dozens of Yun Guards were not just decorations. The possibility of the Xiongnu people abducting her from the border city was even slimmer.
The situation today was more like a trap set up by the cunning Second Prince Xiongnu.
Look, he understood the logic, but just as Yun Er and Yun San had expected, he did not dare to gamble.
Envoy Xiongnu had heard of the invincible Azure Frost Sword in Rong Yan’s hand. He swallowed his saliva. “Our prince said that as long as you dare to wave your sword and give the order to attack, your lover will immediately fall from the city tower.”
As expected, Rong Yan did not wave the sword in his hand, nor did he give the order to attack. Seeing that there was a chance, Envoy Xiongnu became even more smug. “That’s right. There’s a saying in the pass, ‘A hero can’t resist a beauty’. Looks like this is indeed true.”
“There’s no point in fighting and killing. Why don’t we find a place to sit down and have a drink and a good talk?”
Rong Yan frowned. “What right does a prodigal dog have to negotiate with us?” The envoy stiffened. “Don’t you care about your confidante’s life?”
Rong Yan sat on the horse and looked down at this person. For a short moment, the latter felt like he had died.
It was also at this moment that the person holding the woman hostage on the city wall pushed the woman up the city wall because the people below the city tower could not see clearly. Then, he tore the woman’s coat in front of so many people.
Rong Yan’s eyes turned red, even though there was a voice in his heart that kept reminding him-that wasn’t Xiaoxiao, that wasn’t Xiaoxiao! That couldn’t be Xiaoxiao!
The Xiongnu envoy was shocked, but he still mustered his courage to threaten, “If you don’t put down this sword, what will be torn apart later won’t be as simple as a piece of clothing!”
As soon as he finished speaking, an arrow suddenly shot out from the army. The arrow flew through the crowd and hit the woman on the city gate tower. Seeing that person fall from the city wall, Rong Yan felt his heart tighten. His hand that was holding the reins was about to shake it off in the next moment. It was also at this moment that the fear of falling made the woman pretending to be Xiaoxiao shout uncontrollably. This hoarse and strange emphasis and clear foreign language instantly exposed her identity.
“Xiongnu language! That’s a Xiongnu woman!”
Rong Yan’s heart, which was about to break, finally calmed down, but the anger in his heart burned the moment he relaxed.
“Yun Er, Yun San.”
“I’m here!”
Rong Yan looked in the direction where the arrow had been shot. “Find the person who shot the arrow.”
At this moment, he could not be sure if that person did this because he knew the identity of the hostage or if he did not care…
At the thought that Xiaoxiao would suffer the same treatment as the scene just now if she was captured, he could not calm down no matter what.
The two of them received the order and left. Rong Yan whipped the Xiongnu envoy.
“Go back and tell your second prince that he has angered me.”
He raised his sword again. ’TH count to 20. You have to run faster.”
The envoy wanted to complain and protest, but when he heard this, he hurriedly scrambled onto the horse and ran. Rong Yan’s voice sounded behind him like the King of Hell.
“One, two, three…”
Why was he still counting so quickly!
The envoy used all his strength to pull the horse’s butt and rushed to the city gate without looking back. Rong Yan really kept his word. Just as he finished counting, he waved his sword and shouted, “Attack the city!”
The envoy could only charge forward with all his might. When he reached the city gate, he shouted, “The prince of Great Xia wants me to bring something to the second prince.. Let me in!”
