While Zhou Yunshu was immersed in cooking, Wei Zhong squatted on the slope and felt that his neck was chilly.
Calculating the time, Hai Dongqing and the homing pigeons that flew away two days earlier should be able to arrive at about the same time.
When he thought that his master had just learned the good news of the princess's pregnancy and then immediately faced the bad news of losing the princess, he couldn't help but want to kneel down and apologize.
As he thought, Ji Sheng, who was far away in Youzhou in the north, did receive a letter from Wei Zhong in the military camp.
But the first thing he received was the letter from Hai Dongqing.
In the letter, Wei Zhong stated everything he and Zhou Yunshu did after going up the mountain, and then there was the news that Zhou Yunshu was missing.
In fact, when he agreed to leave Zhou Yunshu to carry out the tasks assigned to him by Zhou Yunshu, he secretly arranged someone to protect Zhou Yunshu, otherwise he would not dare to leave easily.
But who knew that the person he arranged to follow Zhou Yunshu would be knocked unconscious by the breeze, and because of this, Wei Zhong completely lost Zhou Yunshu's whereabouts.
If there were any clues, it would be that Zhou Yunshu had told Qingfeng before that they were going to Nanzhou next.
General Wei Zhong interrogated the captured Qingfeng again and again, and the news they got was that if Zhou Yunshu left, he would definitely go to Nanzhou.
Yes, the unlucky Qingfeng was caught by Wei Zhong when he ran down the mountain.
Originally, he wanted to find an opportunity to run away while Wei Zhong didn't know what he had done, but Wei Zhong looked at him hard.
Until he met up with the stunned people who stayed in the team, and until the stunned people on Wolong Mountain woke up, he couldn't run away at all.
Ji Sheng in the tent was dressed in red armor, with a black gold-plated war robe hanging naturally. He held a letter in his right hand, and a scorpion mask with red background and gold patterns was hooked on his left hand.
After reading the letter, Ji Sheng stretched the letter in his hand towards the brazier in the tent. Hai Dongqing, who was standing on a shelf not far away, glanced at the letter he brought and continued to lower his head and lick his hair.
The tongues of fire devoured the letter, and another announcement came from outside the big tent.
"Your Majesty, there is a message from your flying pigeon."
"Enter."
The subordinate in armor came to Ji Sheng's side with his head lowered and presented the letter in his hand.
When Ji Sheng saw the letter which was still from Wei Zhong, a hint of impatience flashed in his cold eyes.
Wei Zhong had only been away for a long time. Not only did he become more and more mother-in-law, but he couldn't even do such a small thing as looking after people.
Ji Sheng had already made plans to get Wei Zhong back until he saw the contents of another letter sent by a carrier pigeon.
The Bifan mask in his hand was crushed by Ji Sheng, his eyes still lingering on the last few words in the letter: The princess is pregnant with twins, congratulations to the Lord.
She is pregnant.
If his princess knew that she was pregnant, when did she find out?
Before leaving the palace, or after leaving the palace.
Missing……
A self-written and arranged disappearance...
Ji Sheng held the small letter in his hand, and a trace of gloom and condensation flashed across his handsome face.
The subordinate who had been standing not far away shrank his arms and wondered in his heart what kind of bad news the carrier pigeon had brought in just now, which could make the prince so angry.
"Go ahead." Ji Sheng looked at the flames in front of him, "Let Jia Er take my token and lead the ten people from Class B to Luzhou to meet Wei Zhong and bring the princess back to me safe and sound."
Ji Sheng held the letter in his hand and said coldly: "Tell Wei Zhong that if he can't find the princess, he doesn't have to come back."
"Here!"
The subordinate ordered him to retreat, and he happened to pass by a handsome man wearing a green satin robe and a white snow fox cloak.
"Xuanjun, why are you so angry? Didn't the Eastern Turks retreat after being defeated by you?"
Ji Sheng turned around and threw the note in his hand into the brazier. The moment the flames spread, he casually threw the crushed mask onto the desk.
The man looked at Ji Sheng's movements and raised his eyebrows slightly: "Could it be that the Crown Prince and King Qi in the capital are acting like monsters again?"
"That's not right. It's not the letter from Concubine Li forcing you to marry Cheng Jiajia."
Ji Sheng looked at Kang Jingyu who continued to guess without saying anything, and finally said: "Kang Zixian, you are really noisy."
Kang Jingyu looked at Ji Sheng who finally paid attention to him, stepped forward with a smile and said, "It seems that everything I guessed was wrong."
"There are not many people in this world who can make our cold-hearted His Highness the King of Wei care so much, so...it won't be our sister-in-law who asked for help, right?"
Kang Jingyu looked at Ji Sheng's condensed gaze. Not only was he not afraid, he even smiled and said, "Hahaha, I guessed it right!"
Ji Sheng looked at the proud Kang Jingyu across from him and pinched his eyebrows, "Sometimes I really want to beat you up."
"Xuanjun, if you say that, I will be sad. After all, we both grew up wearing the same pair of pants, not to mention my body is so weak. Are you willing to hit me?" Kang Jingyu said and got up. Take off your cloak.
Ji Sheng looked at Kang Jingyu's pale face, took the teapot that had been kept warm and poured him a cup of hot tea.
"You can go back before the heavy snow arrives in the north."
Kang Jingyu listened to Ji Sheng's softened words, held hot tea in both hands and said, "How nice to talk like this!"
"I think the reason why my sister-in-law asked herself to leave the court is because you are like an ice cube and she found it boring to live with you, so she left."
Ji Sheng looked at Kang Jingyu speechlessly and really wanted to shut his mouth.
Ji Sheng looked at him and said, "I'm serious. There are no good doctors in the military camp. If you really get sick in the military camp, I can't explain it to the teacher."
Kang Jingyu took a sip of hot tea and said, "I won't leave."
"Then I'll send you away." Ji Sheng's tone did not allow for refutation, as if he had already made a decision for Kang Jingyu.
Kang Jingyu looked at Ji Sheng's beautiful but too cold face and said, "If you tell me why you were angry before, I will leave the North by myself."
Ji Sheng looked at Kang Jingyu, seeming to doubt the authenticity of his words.
Kang Jingyu was hurt by Ji Sheng's gaze. He put down the teacup in his hand and said, "Ji Xuanjun, you are a good friend like me, what good will it do you to piss me off to death!"
Ji Sheng took a sip of tea, held the cup and said to Kang Jingyu, "I just got good news and bad news."
Kang Jingyu smiled and said, "But you look like it's all bad news."
Ji Sheng glanced at Kang Jingyu and continued: "Good news, the princess I invited to the palace is pregnant with twins."
"The bad news isn't yours?!" Kang Jingyu answered quickly and said in shock.
Oh my God, one day he could actually see someone cuckolding Ji Xuanjun!
"Snapped!"
Ji Sheng put the teacup on the table, and Kang Jingyu shrank under Ji Sheng's cool gaze.
"You said there was more bad news."
Kang Jingyu's voice of grievance was so small that it was almost inaudible.
"The child is mine." Ji Sheng looked at Kang Jingyu and emphasized every word.
"But the princess escaped with the children."
