657 Hostage Exchange (1 more)
"Master, it's not good!"
The butler ran into the main yard, and his voice was broken because he was anxious.
Hearing his voice, everyone in the room felt a sudden slap in their hearts.
The housekeeper didn't care about etiquette anymore and ran into the house, "Sun, Miss Sun was kidnapped. Then, that person said he wanted to see Empress Xian."
Xiao Zhengteng stood up, "Where are the people?"
"It's almost time to the south city."
Xiao Zheng walked out quickly, "Prepare the horse!"
Duke Ding also wanted to follow him, thinking of the butler's words just now, and said in a deep voice, "What the hell is going on?"
The butler said angrily.
After hearing this, Duke Ding frowned and felt that something was different.
The wife of Dingguo Duke couldn't sit still, and she said anxiously, "Master..."
Duke Ding waved his hand, "Don't be impatient, wait until Zheng'er sends the news back."
Xiao Zheng quickly galloped and arrived at the place where Xiao Yao was kidnapped. Without waiting for the horse to stop, he jumped down and walked closer in three or two steps. Although Xiao Yao was shaking, he still grabbed the veil tightly with one hand.
"I am Xiao Zheng. If you have anything to say to me, let go of my daughter!"
"Stop, don't come over."
The man used force to the dagger's hand, and red flowed out along the dagger.
Xiao Zheng stopped, his hands hanging down on his side tightened, and tried his best to ease his voice, "Empress Xian is not convenient for you to come over. If you have anything to say to me, I'll tell her."
"No, I must meet Empress Xian. If she doesn't come, I will kill the bride!"
After saying that, the dagger suddenly waved, slid across the back of Xiao Yao's hand, cutting off a piece of veil, and half of Xiao Yao's face appeared in front of everyone.
Blood flowed out along the back of Xiao Yao's white hands, dyeing Song Si's eyes red. He had never hated that he had never learned martial arts like he was now.
The dagger returned to Xiao Yao's neck, "Give you a quarter of an hour. If you still can't see Empress Xian, I will cut off her neck!"
...
In the south city, at the door of the Song family, everything that came out of the sedan chair was ready. The servants happily carried two baskets of firecrackers out. Miss Song said, "When the bride arrives, it will be louder and louder, and the better the sound will be.
Song Shen and Erya stood by the door, looking at the firecrackers curiously. The people in the countryside were poor, and even the villagers were reluctant to set off firecrackers when they got married. I don’t know what it sounded like.
Song Wanyue leaned lazily against the door frame, watching the two of them discussing curiously, and a smile on her lips.
A man ran from a distance, shouting, "No, something happened!"
Recognizing that he was the servant who went to meet the bride, Song Wanyue immediately stood up straight, and the servant panted and said, "The bride was kidnapped, that person..."
Before he could finish speaking, Song Wanyue had already run toward him.
Song Shen followed, and Erya wanted to follow her, but when she thought of her family's instructions to prevent her from running around, she turned around and ran to the yard.
...
Xiao Zheng looked at the person in front of him with his scarlet eyes. He had a hundred ways to kill him, but he had no way to save his daughter safely.
"Four quarters of an hour!"
The man reminded.
Xiao Zheng closed his eyes, quickly turned around and ran back home.
After hearing this, Concubine Xiao stood up and said, "I'll go."
"No."
Duke Ding stopped him, not to mention that his daughter was the imperial concubine, if something happened to her, the emperor would definitely punish Duke Ding's Mansion. Even for the sake of future plans, she could not go.
"Mother, I'll go back to the palace to ask for the archer to be transferred."
The fourth prince also stood up.
"It's too late, we only have a quarter of an hour."
Xiao Zheng clenched his hands tightly into fists.
"Yao'er is in his hands. If I don't go, Yao'er will definitely be in danger. Father, whether it is an accident today or someone deliberately does it, I must go. Don't worry, I won't be able to do anything with the Imperial Guard."
Duke Ding wanted to stop him, but he opened his mouth a few times but didn't say anything. The daughter is important, and the granddaughter is equally important.
Get up, "I'll go with you."
...
Xiao Gan slowly walked closer.
Just now, he was sweating all over his body when he carried Xiao Yao into the sedan chair. He went back to change his clothes and chased the team in a carriage. Unexpectedly, he heard about Xiao Yao being kidnapped halfway.
Because he was sick all year round, his face was abnormally white, his breath was slightly breathing, and his words were not intimidating, "Let go of my sister, I'll be hostage for you."
The man looked at him disdainfully, "Get out!"
Xiao Gan did not retreat, but instead approached a little, "A man is a real man, and it is not a skill to hijack a woman."
The man seemed impatient and moved the dagger in his hand, "Don't be too verbally verbally, I'll give her a word."
Xiao Gan lowered his head, the cold light flashed in his eyes, raised his head, and returned to his weak look. He really didn't dare to speak, and leaned against Song Si.
When Song Wanyue arrived, she saw this scene. Xiao Yao was held hostage, half of her veil was peeled off, and a blood mark on her snow-white neck was very dazzling.
She was about to step forward when a sharp voice sounded, "Empress Xian is here!"
Everyone knelt down, only the man and Xiao Yao, Song Si and Xiao Gan stood.
Song Wanyue also squatted down and moved quietly to them while the man was not paying attention.
The sedan chair slowly approached and stopped when it was approaching. The eunuch opened the curtain of the sedan chair and the face of Concubine Xiao Xian showed.
Seeing Xiao Yao's situation clearly, I felt sorry for her, but she didn't show it on her face, "I am here, please let go of Yao'er first."
Not only did the man not let him go, he also forced Xiao Yao to walk a few steps forward, closer to the sedan chair, "I'll let him go if the empress promises me something."
"explain!"
"I have a few brothers in prison, so I asked Empress Xian to order them to be released."
"this……"
Concubine Xiao Xian wanted to say that she did not have this power. As soon as she spoke, the man used force to his hands, and another blood thread flowed down the dagger. "My lady, don't say that you don't have this power, otherwise I will pull her to death."
"Which prison is in?"
The man smiled proudly, "Of Jingzhao Mansion."
"Shunde."
The little leader of the Imperial Guard came forward, "Empress."
"Go bring people here."
"yes."
Shunde left quickly. Not long after he walked out of the sedan chair, he saw the people from the Five City Military Command coming. He exchanged glances with the person riding the horse in front and left quickly.
The man immediately got off the horse quickly and ran to the sedan chair to kneel down, "I'm late to come to my post, please forgive me."
Concubine Xiao Xian glanced at him, her tone was gentle, but the words she said made the leader frightened, "It's true that it's damn. It's been two quarters of an hour since the accident happened. I don't know that the people in the Five City Military and Ma Si are so useless. It seems that I will report to the emperor when I go back."
The leader was shocked and broke out in a cold sweat, "Damn it, I deserve to die, I wish you forgive me, I wish you a happy life, I will save Miss Xiao."
After saying that, he waved his hand, and the soldiers of the Five City Military Police quickly dispersed, surrounding everyone in the middle, holding a crossbow and facing them.
