The scheming empress starts by conquering men

However, now she finally found someone who could help her activate the token.

But this person doesn't want that position, he just wants to stay in a corner.

She knelt down slowly and pleaded earnestly.

"I beg Your Highness to give Hua Qingmei a chance. This token was entrusted to me by that noble. She saved me with her life. I promised her that I would definitely overthrow that person. Now I can only ask Your Highness for help!"

Seeing that Shaodian Si Shui did not take the token, he did not accept it either, and looked a little embarrassed.

She became anxious and kowtowed repeatedly.

"Okay, okay, okay, get up, get up quickly."

Shaodian Sishui was forced to help her up and sighed.

"Okay, I'll listen to you, but you haven't met the second sister. If you meet the second sister, you will definitely change your mind."

But he was secretly shocked in his heart. It turned out that the token did not belong to the old woman, but to someone else?

Hua Qingmei was so vigilant that she only told her the truth now.

Hua Qingmei remained silent. His Highness still couldn't see through the Second Princess' heart, but she could.

She could not explain to His Highness that the Second Princess was not as simple as she seemed. If she said too much, His Highness would suspect that she was trying to sow discord between her and the Second Princess.

She handed the token to His Highness and lowered her voice.

"Your Highness, I feel relieved now that the token is in your hands."

"I have secretly sent Wu Zhang to the Second Prince's military camp for training. Don't worry, I will always stand by your side."

As soon as she finished speaking, a guard came hurriedly from outside.

"Greetings to His Highness the Sixth Prince."

Hua Qingmei quickly stood up and stood aside with her head down.

Shaodian Sishui hurriedly took the token and looked at the person who came.

"What's the matter?"

The guard said, "The wedding procession was attacked outside the city, and Master Shao and Master Yue were captured. The prince sent his subordinates to inform the Sixth Prince. Don't worry, the prince will definitely rescue them."

"What?" Shaodian Sishui's expression changed slightly; "A sneak attack? Who did it?"

The guard said, "Your Highness, we didn't see who the robbers were. It was the Second Princess and the Prince who guessed that Master Shao and Master Yue were captured."

"Prepare the horses." Shaodian Sishui ordered in a cold voice, and turned to instruct the old woman, "Take good care of her, I will be back soon."

"Well, I will definitely take good care of the little girl and will not let Your Highness worry."

The old woman took the order, and Shaodian Sishui quickly left the mansion and asked the guards to lead the way to the place where Shao Jincong and Yue Chemu were kidnapped.

Shaodian Haolan and Shaodian Ziqing are no longer here, they have all gone to rescue them.

As soon as she arrived here, she saw Lord Wen pacing back and forth anxiously. Seeing her was like seeing his backbone.

His worried heart was slightly relieved and his eyes brightened.

"Your Highness Sixth!"

Shaodian Sishui said sternly, "How could you be hijacked? How many people are there on the other side? Are all of you just for show?"

Wen Renyi said with a look of distress, "During the break, Master Yue was a little tired from sitting for so long, so he got off the car and walked around. Master Shao said he had something to tell him, so he walked with him, and the two of them headed for the dense forest over there."

"The Second Prince originally wanted to follow, but Master Shao wouldn't let him. After that, the two of them walked further and further away until they disappeared."

"After that, they didn't come out for a long time, so the Second Prince led people to look for them personally."

"But we only found Mr. Shao's personal token. Then we realized something was fishy. We were afraid that the two of them were kidnapped."

"The Second Prince has sent all the guards to look for him, but there is no trace of him."

Shaodian Sishui frowned and looked towards the dense forest on the right.

Because of the winter, although the forest is dense, the trees are bare.

Anyone could have noticed that they were being kidnapped there, but Wenren said that the two of them walked farther and farther away until their figures disappeared and then they were kidnapped.

Could it be that Yue Chemu was secretly behind this?

These plots are not in the book.

It was difficult for Shaodian Sishui to guess the conspiracy behind it.

She ordered, "You guys go to Yuyi Post Station first, and stay in Yuyi tonight."

"Here."

Wenren took the order and went to inform everyone immediately.

Shaodian Sishui glanced at the dense forest and rode her horse towards it. Not far away, she saw that there were horses left behind in front of her.

She knew that it must have been left by Shaodian Haolan or Shaodian Ziqing when they passed by on horseback.

The trees in the dense forest are indeed quite dense, and there are no paths at all, so it is impossible to pass through on horseback.

She dismounted and checked the traces on the ground.

There was very little snow on the ground, and the traces of footsteps were clearly visible, scattered towards the right and front.

It should be that Shaodian Haolan and Shaodian Ziqing split their troops into two groups, one heading right and the other forward, and the left side... She raised her head and looked to the left along the dense forest, and there was no trace of anyone walking.

Shaodian Sishui first turned around to look at the wedding procession outside, but from where she was standing, she could no longer see any trace of the procession.

In other words, Shao Jincong and Yue Chemu were walking here and were kidnapped.

So how were these two people kidnapped and how did they disappear quietly?

Shaodian Sishui did not follow Shaodian Haolan and Shaodian Ziqing's path, but walked to the left front.

To the left front was a dense forest of icebergs that stretched as far as the eye could see, and there was no trace of human footsteps on the ground.

She kept wondering who kidnapped them and what their purpose was.

It was not until they had walked about a kilometer that Shaodian Sishui came to her senses and wondered if she had walked to the wrong place and was not chasing in the right direction.

Just as she was about to turn around, she saw a patch of green pine branches on the snow in the distance, which was very eye-catching.

She looked up and looked around. There were birch trees all around. Where did the pine branches come from?

When she got closer, she found that there were many and disorderly footsteps on the snow under the pine branches.

She looked back in astonishment at the footprints she had left behind, then looked back at the sudden mess of footsteps on the snow in front of her, as well as the broken and drooping pine branches on the snow.

Shaodian Sishui walked forward, picked up the pine branch, and just grasped the handle of the pine branch with his hand.

She lowered her eyes to look at the messy footsteps on the ground, held the pine branch, and began to sweep left and right at the footprints on the snow. Sure enough, the footprints disappeared.

"So that's it."

Shaodian Sishui suddenly realized and looked back at the distance from her to here. If she hadn’t insisted on coming to this place, if she hadn’t been thinking about this in her heart.

Perhaps she would be like Shaodian Haolan or Shaodian Ziqing, thinking that no one had ever been here.

Shaodian Sishui dropped the pine branch and walked quickly northward along the chaotic footsteps.

After running out of the woods, I finally saw a path ahead, with horse hoof prints and horse manure on it.

She walked over to check the horse manure first and found that the outside of the manure was frozen, but when she knocked it open, there was still some warmth inside.

Someone just passed by here and left not long ago.

Shaodian Sishui followed the horseshoe prints all the way north, winding its way up a hill.

When she reached halfway up the mountain, she saw a dozen war horses parked there.

There was no one around. Shaodian Sishui approached cautiously and observed the horse. She found wolf teeth and wolf bones hanging on the reins and the horse's head. She knew that this was a unique costume of the Shanrong and Guyang tribes.

Are they Shanrong people?

Is Yue Chemu behind this?

It’s still the Gutan inkstone.

Shaodian Sishui is not quite sure, everything is possible.

She looked for footprints and followed the messy footprints all the way up the mountain.

As soon as he reached the top of the mountain, Shaodian Sishui heard Yue Chemu's roar.

"Gutan Yan, come at me if you want to kill me, don't make it difficult for Master Shao!"
