Chapter 295 Wow
After talking with Mei Dai, Shen Yuexi fully understood the strategy to deal with Xiao Beiheng.

That is, the heart of guarding against others is indispensable, and the heart of harming others is indispensable.What Xiao Zhuo said repeatedly was correct, Xiao Beiheng was his younger brother after all.

In this way, she has nothing to worry about in her heart and has more fun.

If it weren't for the Xirong cavalry from the four counties of Xiliang to make trouble, Mei Dai could have taken her time to take her to various scenic spots.Now for safety reasons, she stays in Yongwei City.

After eating breakfast in the morning, Ji Yunyan accompanied her to Yongwei's market for snacks.Stroll until noon, go to a restaurant to eat local specialties.In the afternoon, let's see what delicious cakes are available, and eat a piece of each one. If it is delicious, I will pack it up and give it to Xiao Zhuo to taste.

During this period, Mei Dai and Shen Lan fought several battles with Xirong, and Xiao Zhuo led cavalry to support them.Winning consecutive battles, they wiped out all the Xirong cavalry fleeing in the territory, and the rest were driven past Zhangwu and retreated into Nanping.Even Xiao Zhuo praised Shen Lan's strategy.

After playing wildly for a week, in late July, a messenger from Shengjing brought a letter from Mrs. Li.The content of the letter was very simple, but it made her overjoyed.

The thrush that flew away, it flew back again.

After hearing the news, Shen Yuexi immediately lost her appetite for food, and told Xiao Zhuo that she was going back to Shengjing.

Xiao Zhuo was a little embarrassed.

The Xiliang army has driven Xirong to Nanping.Another battle to capture Nanping will drive Xirong back to the north.Now Shen Yuexi wants to go back to Shengjing.

Shen Yuexi is not a wayward woman, she suggested that Xiao Zhuo stay here to help Mei Dai, and return first by herself.

Xiao Zhuo assigned a thousand cavalry to escort her, and Shen Yuexi bid farewell to Mei Dai and the others, and went to Shengjing under the escort of the cavalry.

It was noon when she returned to Shengjing, and when she reached the gate of the palace, she got off her horse excitedly, and only then threw the reins to the servants.There was a cry behind her, and then a pair of arms hugged her tightly.

"Yuexi, you're back, and you have to make decisions for your aunt."

Shen Yuexi finally turned around, and in front of her was Mrs. Li's crying face, even her nose was bubbling.

"Auntie, what's the matter with you?" she asked puzzled.

Xia Lan ran over from the side, wiped Madam Li's tears with a handkerchief, and said to Shen Yuexi: "Master, please persuade the old madam, she doesn't even eat food these days, and the servant will not listen to her persuasion."

Shen Yuexi comforted Mrs. Li and said, "Auntie, let's go into the room and talk about anything."

She helped Mrs. Li into the palace, came to the hall to sit down, and said to Xia Lan: "Hurry up and bring a pear to my aunt."

With Shen Yuexi away, Xia Lan forgot about Mrs. Li's love for pears.Hearing Shen Yuexi's order, Xia Lan remembered it, and quickly went to get a pear and stuffed it in Mrs. Li's hand.

Mrs. Li held the pear and stared blankly at the ground.

"Auntie, eat some pears."

Shen Yuexi had just finished speaking, when Madam Li turned her head and saw her, she shed tears again, and said, "Oh... I'm just such a precious daughter."

Shen Yuexi couldn't understand her ramblings, so she had to interrupt Mrs. Li and said, "Auntie, you have to tell me what happened before I can help you."

"Your guard commander, he...he kidnapped Wan'er!"

"Ah?" Shen Yuexi was taken aback, "You mean Qiang Lin... kidnapped my cousin?"

"Yes, he did it. Damn it, Wan'er... woo woo."

After Madam Li finished speaking, she held the pear and began to cry again.

Shen Yuexi got up subconsciously, and shouted out of the hall: "Qiang Lin, come here immediately."

She didn't quite believe that Qiang Lin would do such a thing.How can a man who can go through life and death for her and guard her all day long be such a despicable person.

Xia Lan reminded: "Master, didn't Commander Qiang Lin go back to the north?"

Only then did Shen Yuexi remember that Qiang Lin asked for leave before, saying that he was going back to the north to visit the seriously injured king, she generously agreed and gave all the hidden guards a leave.

Could it be that when Qiang Lin left, he also took Li Wan away?
She turned to Mrs. Li again and said, "Auntie, you said that Qiang Lin kidnapped Li Wan, how did you know?"

Mrs. Li cried: "After you left, that Qiang forest passed a few days... If you don't want to leave, I didn't take it back. After he left, I found that Wan'er was gone. I can't find it everywhere. I see, Wan'er never runs around. Who else can hey except Qiang Lin. My heart is about to break..."

As she spoke, she tapped her chest with a pear, appearing in pain.

Shen Yuexi said: "So my aunt called me back?"

Mrs. Li raised her head and wiped away her tears: "Qiang Linsi your subordinate, do you want me, an old woman with handicapped legs, to go to Xirong to look for her?"

Shen Yuexi stood up and said to Xia Lan: "It's not too late. Take good care of your aunt, I'll go find Miss Li right away."

She ran out of the palace, got on her horse, and ran towards the north of the city.

It is impossible for Qiang Lin to go to see his king.Firstly, I don't know the place at all, and secondly, if I encounter hostile Xirong soldiers, it will be troublesome.But Qiang Lin's mother lived in the north of the city, before she and Xiao Zhuo came back here by boat and met Qiang Lin's mother.

Qiang Lin's mother must know something.

When I came to the north of the city, I met General Qiu Liming training soldiers.

When Xiao Zhuo left, he specifically told Qiu Liming to recruit soldiers and train them diligently.During this time, Qiu Liming had recruited hundreds of recruits.

Shen Yuexi and Qiu Liming brought up the matter.Qiu Liming was taken aback, and said to Shen Yuexi: "Mistress, if it is true what Mrs. Li said, the Xirong people kidnapped Miss Li, you can't go alone. The last general will lead the soldiers to guard you."

Qiu Liming was worried and ordered three thousand elite soldiers.When Shen Yuexi saw it, she quickly stopped her and said, "There's no need to mobilize the crowd like this."

If thousands of soldiers rushed over aggressively, the Xirong people in the north of the city might think that they were here to ask the teacher for their crimes.Now the two races get along very well, and they can't mess around.

She only asked Qiu Liming to follow, and the two left the city.

The tops of the white tents are scattered on the grassy grassland, and smoke from the kitchen rises.As the warm wind blows, flocks of cattle and sheep appear in the sea of ​​grass.

Shen Yuexi rode along the road between the tents, and the Xirong people on the road smiled and saluted her.A group of Xirong children dressed in Dayan people's clothes ran and jumped behind her horse, shouting in Xirong language.

At the place where the tents were densest, a large group of Xirong people had gathered there, all eyes were on her.

As soon as she jumped off the horse, an elderly man walked out of the crowd, saluted her respectfully, then said a few words, and turned sideways to make a gesture of please.

Shen Yuexi couldn't understand what the old man said, and looked back at Qiu Liming, who also shook his head.

She had no choice but to turn around and think about it. First, imitating Qiang Lin's way of swearing allegiance, she knelt down on one knee, stroked her hair with her finger, then stood up, pointing at herself with a questioning expression. look.

She meant looking for someone who would swear allegiance to her.

The elderly man let out a cry, raised his right hand and pointed to the north, pointed the two fingers of his left hand to the ground, and swung his fingers quickly, as if walking on two feet.

"Mistress, the general understands," Qiu Liming said next to her, "What he means is that all the hidden guards have gone to the north."

Shen Yuexi was a little disappointed, it would have been nice if there was a secret guard who could understand Dayan language here.

She used hand gestures to ask if Qiang Lin's mother was there.After repeated attempts several times, the old man finally understood, led the way, and led her to a tent.

Several Xirong women were busy applying seasoning to the packed raw lamb legs.Shen Yuexi recognized Qiang Lin's mother at a glance.

Qiang Lin's mother also recognized her, stood up and wiped her hands, and said a lot to her with a smile...

Shen Yuexi couldn't understand a word, but Qiang Lin's mother continued to speak.It felt like she had a lot to say, and she showed a happy expression while talking, crossing her hands on her chest.The women next to her also nodded.

The old man interrupted Qiang Lin's mother with a smile, pointed at Shen Yuexi, and shook his head.

Qiang Lin's mother showed an awakened look, patted herself on the head, put her hands behind her neck, took off a string of beautiful white pearl necklaces, and showed Shen Yuexi.

Shen Yuexi recognized that the necklace belonged to Li Wan.

Before that, Emperor Qi Ming ordered Xiao Zhuo to be King An, and rewarded him with a lot of gold, silver and jewels.Xiao Zhuo didn't bother to ask, and let her and Li Wan deal with it directly.

She is a little money fanatic, and she has long wanted to try the feeling of sleeping on gold, so she directly used gold to make a bed, and she had a good experience of what it means to be a fan of paper and gold.Li Wan was born in the Marquis Mansion, and she didn't have much feeling for money, so she chose this string of pearl necklaces.

Now that this string of necklaces is actually in the hands of Qiang Lin's mother, it seems that what Mrs. Li said about Li Wan being taken away by Qiang Lin is still true.

Just looking at Qiang Lin's mother's happy expression, I'm afraid Mrs. Li is not telling the truth.
