Chapter 313 Falling into the trap
In order to keep the little prince in her hands, the Queen Mother must not make any mistakes. All her people came out. Now there is no one available. Fortunately, Cao Guangyi listens to her orders.
I fell into a trap last night and suffered heavy losses.
The trouble that happened in Gu's house last night was afraid that Ting Yuan would get the blame and let him criticize her.
The Gu family members were able to disappear out of thin air, and all the things buried in the house were missing. The Queen Mother believed that the Lin'an County Lord and Su Wan had joined forces. After all, this plan was the idea given by the Lin'an County Lord. Unless she had this motive, the dead man Will not betray her.
She did not believe that Su Wan could kill all the dead soldiers by herself. The Queen Mother suspected that Ting Yuan or Zhao Wei was responsible.
The Queen Mother ordered Cao Guangyi to arrange for people to keep an eye on Zhao Guogong's palace and the regent's palace.
Cao Guangyi was previously the governor, in charge of local military affairs and financial power. Because he had ulterior motives, he transferred him back to Beijing, which was intended to deprive him of his power. How could Cao Guangyi delegate power so easily? There has been a stalemate with the court and no suitable vacancy was arranged for him.
Now that he still has military power in his hands, he asked him to besiege the Gu Mansion last night. If things develop smoothly according to their plan, they will be able to stand up. Unfortunately, they failed and it was even more detrimental to Cao Guangyi.
Therefore, Cao Guangyi attached great importance to it and sent several elite troops to guard the gates of the Regent's Palace and Zhao Guogong's Palace. Even the Grand Princess's Palace was never missed.
Tingyuan took Gu Jingyun out of the Regent's Palace, got into a carriage, and drove slowly towards the palace.
The person lurking in the dark stared at Gu Jingyun, and was shocked. Is this the little prince that Mr. Cao is looking for?
Several people looked at each other, not knowing what to do. After all, the person in front of them was Mr. Xiao Ge. What should they do if their deeds of robbing people were exposed?
Finally, it was decided to go to Master Cao alone to make up his mind. Unexpectedly, Yushi Meng consulted Master Cao and the Queen Mother, and Master Cao was summoned to the palace.
"What should I do? Stop or not?"
"Master Cao said that the little prince is related to his future. If it is not in his hands, he may be dealt with at will by the court. In his hands, he can fight a beautiful turnaround."
"But, that's Mr. Xiaoge, offend him..."
"So we can only succeed. If the little prince is snatched back, what about Mr. Ge? Feel free to accuse him of kidnapping the prince!"
After discussion, several people made a decision to look for an opportunity to take back the little prince.
They followed the carriage to a busy street. The wide street was crowded with people and busy with traffic.
"We'll walk a little further and we'll reach the headquarters of the Wucheng Soldiers and Horses Division. If we go out, we will be captured directly by the people from the Wucheng Soldiers and Horses Division. This is equivalent to giving the handle to others. After passing by the Wucheng Soldiers and Horses The palace gate is not far away, let alone take action." Lin Yuan asked Gao Song beside him: "We can only seize the opportunity in front of us."
Gao Song didn't respond for a long time, it was too difficult to find an opportunity.
Fortunately, Mr. Xiao Ge did not bring many people with him, only a coachman and two attendants.
There are eight of them.
Just as they were preparing to go out, suddenly the sound of gongs and drums sounded in the street, which was particularly festive.
A long team to welcome the bride came from a distance and were about to block the carriage of the Prince Regent's Palace.
Several people looked at each other and saw a message in each other's eyes: The opportunity is here!
They took out smoke bombs from their pockets, and when the wedding team came, they threw them out to create chaos so that they could rush into the carriage and snatch people away.
Maybe we can get the little prince without spending a single soldier.
"boom--"
There was an explosion, thick smoke filled the air, and a choking smell filled the air.
Pedestrians screamed in fear and ran around.
The procession to welcome the bride dispersed. The bearers were afraid of missing the right moment and did not dare to wait for the smoke to dissipate before leaving. Moreover, the smoke was so suffocating that tears fell uncontrollably. They stumbled and carried the sedan quickly past the carriage to escape.
This elite group rushed out with half their faces covered, intercepted the carriage, and fought with the accompanying Mo Li and the driver.
In the chaos, the horses were frightened, neighed, and galloped.
"Stop the horse!" Gao Song said urgently, stopping Mo Li and Mo Han.
Several other people pestered the coachman.
Lin Yuan flew away quickly and stabbed him with his sword.
The horses crashed to the ground and the carriage tipped over.
Lin Yuan used his long sword to lift the curtain of the carriage indifferently, his pupils suddenly shrank, and the carriage was empty.
Tingyuan and Gu Jingyun disappeared.
"impossible!"
They followed all the way and never saw the carriage stop at all. How could this man disappear out of thin air?
Lin Yuan looked around blankly, and several carriages passed him and left.
Suddenly, Lin Yuan remembered one thing. When the smoke bomb was used as a cover-up, he wanted to take people away smoothly without exposing their identities.
Could Tingyuan also take this opportunity to escape and blend into the crowd?
No--
The target is too obvious. If you blend into the crowd, you will definitely be discovered!
Mo Li and Mo Han didn't get entangled, they just made a feint and walked away.
Gao Song's target was not these two people, and he did not pursue them. Instead, he saw something was wrong on Lin Yuan's side: "What's wrong?" He saw that the carriage was empty, and there was no trace of the little prince, and his face was ashen: "The sedan chair?"
"Hurry up!" Gao Song saw Mo Han and Mo Li heading in the opposite direction. Obviously, there was something fishy about the sedan chair.
Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence? Meeting someone getting married at this juncture?
The team that welcomed the bride didn't go far, and they were soon overtaken by them.
"Ah - killing someone! Killing someone! Help!"
Seeing the ferocious looks of these people, Xi Po was frightened and hid in hiding, shouting.
The bearers abandoned the sedan and fled.
With a sullen face, Gao Song opened the sedan curtain and saw a bride in wedding clothes sitting inside, her slender body trembling.
He pulled off the red hijab, revealing the bride's face. Her beauty was pale, and her eyes were filled with tears. She stared at them in fear. Her lips trembled and she wanted to speak. She was so frightened that she lost her voice and trembled even more.
Gao Song tightened his grip on the red hijab and threw it to the ground.
"What should we do? Do we still want to chase?" Lin Yuan's face also looked ugly. "Shall we take a small road, quickly stop in front of the Wucheng Soldiers and Horses Division, and search every passing carriage?"
"You want to die?!" Gao Song looked behind Lin Yuan, his pupils shrank, "Run!"
The men from the Military and Horse Division of the Five Cities came galloping over on horseback, shouting: "There is a riot in the Imperial City, do you still have the king's skills in your eyes? Just let him be captured without suffering any physical pain!"
Naturally, a man with two legs could not outrun a horse with four legs. Lin Yuan and Gao Song escaped. People from the Wucheng Army and Horse Division captured four of them and took them back for interrogation.
Mo Han and Mo Li came out of the darkness, regretting that four people had escaped. They could not come forward to help arrest the people together, but four people were enough to convict Cao Guangyi.
Mo Yuan came over with two horses and handed them to the two people.
They took the horses and ran towards the palace. When they were at the gate of the palace, they caught up with Ting Yuan and Gu Jingyun, and the two people just got off the carriage.
Mo Li breathed a sigh of relief. His master guessed that someone would stop him, so he specially arranged a wedding team to provide opportunities for those who were ambushing in the dark. If those people did not come forward, the master would release smoke bombs himself, create an assassination scene, and lure the snake out of the hole. Those people could not let go of such a good opportunity.
However, Cao Guangyi's people couldn't wait to take action before their master could direct and act out the drama of being assassinated.
The master took the young prince on a sedan chair and left, then changed to a carriage to enter the palace. After that, he sent someone to the Five Cities Military and Horse Division to report the news and arrested him.
The commander of the Five Cities Military and Horse Division is the regent's man.
"Master, it's done." Mo Li whispered.
Ting Yuan nodded slightly, looked at Gu Jingyun who became increasingly silent, touched his head, and took him to Weiyang Palace.
