The scheming empress starts by conquering men

At the foot of the Broken Dragon Cliff, Shaodian Ziqing was extremely anxious. He led thousands of soldiers and horses to the bottom of the Broken Dragon Cliff and searched the entire bottom of the cliff thoroughly.

"Report! Prince, the Sixth Prince has not been found in the east."

"Report! Prince, the Sixth Prince has not been found in the north."

"Report! Your Majesty, the Sixth Prince has not been found in the west."

Reports came in one after another, except for the south side of the cliff, they searched the other three sides of the cliff, but no one was found.

"Search, keep searching. I want to find the person alive or the body dead. Keep searching for me within a ten-mile radius!"

Shaodian Ziqing rode on the horse, gritting his teeth and roaring softly, with mist in his eyes and frost on his eyelashes.

She was so filled with rage that even the hot air she exhaled from her nostrils could not dissipate into mist in this freezing winter.

It seemed that even her breath was filled with anger, lingering around for a long time.

"Here."

All the soldiers did not dare to be careless. They all sensed the prince's anger and quickly dispersed after receiving the order to continue searching for the Sixth Prince.

As the sun set, they were about to enter the heart of Shanrong, but they still couldn't find the Sixth Prince.

"Your Highness, the sun has set, and I have not found the Sixth Prince." Zuo Yi, the personal guard beside Shaodian Ziqing, reported and raised a question; "Is this direction wrong?"

Shaodian Ziqing frowned slightly, looked into the distance with bright eyes and a hint of sadness, and remained silent for a long time.

After a long while, he spoke, "Look towards the east!"

Another guard beside her said, "Your Highness, to the east is the territory of the Guyang tribe. It is getting dark. There are often wolves there. We are going out in simple clothes this time and have not brought long spears. If we encounter a pack of wolves, we will not be able to protect ourselves. It is better to come back tomorrow."

Shaodian Ziqing was extremely anxious, his lips trembling as he looked towards the distance to the east.

After a long time, she closed her eyes and then opened them again.

"Left one, go inform the other soldiers and ask them to return to the city. Right one, you wait here. If I don't come back in an hour, you go back to the city and wait for me. I will go alone to take a look."

After Shaodian Ziqing gave his orders, he rode his horse towards the east without waiting for the guards to speak.

"Your Highness!"

The two subordinates shouted.

Youyi said, "Zuoyi, go inform the other soldiers to return to the city. I will go to protect the prince."

Zuo Yi took out the flare from his arms; "Here, if you are in danger, the signal is your order. I will come back to find you after notifying the others."

Youyi took the flare, put it in his arms, and rode his horse to chase Shaodian Ziqing.

On the other hand, Shaodian Sishui walked out of the cave on the south side of Broken Dragon Cliff, followed by Yue Chemu.

Although Yue Chemu's internal injuries had healed, he still had some external injuries. In addition, his legs had been walking for a long time, so he walked unsteadily and very slowly.

Shaodian Sishui became impatient and just squatted down.

"Come here, I'll carry you."

Yue Chemu was slightly stunned, then walked forward excitedly, leaned forward, and put his arms around her neck. He felt very reassuring from behind her.

Shaodian Sishui carried him on his back and walked quickly towards Yuyi City.

On the way, Yue Chemu tilted his head to look at the sweat on her face, and took out a handkerchief to wipe it for her.

Shaodian Sishui felt his actions but didn't care at all and continued walking forward.

They didn't meet anyone along the way, and it was not until dark that they arrived at the foot of Suii Castle.

During this period, Shaodian Sishui did not rest, but continued to march forward.

At this time, the lights outside the Uii City were bright, and there were soldiers holding torches everywhere, illuminating the surroundings.

Hearing the sound, everyone looked towards them.

"who?"

"It's me." Shaodian Sishui's breathing quickened as she looked at the soldiers guarding not far away.

Hearing the voice, the guard was surprised to see someone coming in.

"It's the Sixth Prince! Quick, send someone to tell the prince that the Sixth Prince is back."

One of the soldiers gave an order, and a man rode on horseback towards the outside of the city.

The rest of the soldiers stepped forward and knelt on one knee.

"I've met His Highness Sixth Prince."

"Get up."

Shaodian Sishui looked at the direction the soldiers left and asked curiously, "Sixth sister is not in the city?"

"Reporting to His Highness the Sixth Prince, the prince went to Broken Dragon Cliff to look for His Highness and has not returned yet."

Shaodian Sishui frowned slightly; "When did the seventh sister go?"

"Reporting to His Highness the Sixth Prince, at 15:00."

That's about 1:15.

Judging from the sky now, it should be around seven in the evening, more than six hours ago.

Logically speaking, she should have come back if she wasn't found. But she hasn't come back for such a long time. Could something have happened?

She put Yue Chemu down and handed him to the soldiers, and ordered: "Bring the horses here. I will go to find your prince myself. Send someone to safely send Master Yue back to the prince's mansion in the city to wait for me."

"Here."

The soldiers took orders and two of them stepped forward to carry Yue Chemu.

Shaodian Sishui looked at Yue Chemu, "Go into the city and wait. I will be back soon."

Yue Chemu hummed and warned, "Your Highness should bring more people with you. There are often packs of wolves at the foot of Broken Dragon Cliff, so you must be careful."

"Don't worry, it's safer for me to go there and come back quickly by myself."

One more soldier might even distract him.

Shaodian Sishui jumped on his horse and headed north under the Broken Dragon Cliff.

Soon, she caught up with the soldier in front. With the guidance of this soldier, she didn't have to find a way specifically and arrived at the north side under the Broken Dragon Cliff without any obstruction.

To bypass the mountains, you have to go through a steep mountain road, and then there is the grassland.

This place no longer belongs to the territory of Da Zhou, but to the land of Shanrong.

Looking at the endless grassland ahead, the soldier said, "Sixth Prince, the Broken Dragon Cliff is on the left in front."

Shaodian Sishui nodded, rode his horse and headed in that direction.

Although there was no moon at night, Shaodian Sishui could see from afar that Shaodian Ziqing's men were not found at the Broken Dragon Cliff.

When she arrived here, she didn't find anyone, but she found a lot of horse feces on the ground. The feces were frozen, which meant that someone had been here for a long time.

Someone should have come in the afternoon.

At this moment, a flare suddenly lit up in the easternmost direction.

"Sixth Prince, it's the prince's signal!" The soldier exclaimed as he looked towards the easternmost sky.

Shaodian Sishui frowned slightly. "East?" She lowered her head and thought for a moment. "Is that where the Guyang tribe is located?"

The soldiers were somewhat suspicious. The Sixth Prince had never been to Yuyi and didn't know the geographical features of the place. How did he know that place was Guyang?

However, he did not ask any more questions, but nodded quickly and said, "Yes, it is the Guyang Tribe."

The Guyang tribe was in danger. Could it be that they encountered people from the Guyang tribe, or a pack of wolves?

Shaodian Sishui didn't think much about it and took out his token and handed it to her.

"Take my token and return to the city to gather the troops and come to support us."

After she finished speaking, she rode her horse towards the easternmost signal location.

The soldiers took the order and returned quickly.

At the same time, on the outskirts of Guyang tribe.

Shaodian Ziqing and Youyi stood back to back, Youyi holding a dagger and Shaodian Ziqing holding a long sword, staring vigilantly at the surrounded wolves.

There were about a hundred wolves in the pack, and each one looked fierce and had a green glow in its eyes.

"Youyi, I'm afraid we're going to be killed by these wolves tonight. Are you afraid?"

Shaodian Ziqing was filled with anger and even a little despair because he didn't find his sister.

Surrounded by a pack of wolves, she was not afraid, but instead had the idea of ​​dying together with them.

You was slightly stunned after hearing this, and thought that the prince was afraid of these wolves, so she whispered to comfort him.

"Your Majesty, you saved my life. I am very lucky to be alive today."

"Don't be afraid, my lord. I will protect you even if it means risking everything."

"If I haven't found my sister, what do I have to fear?"

Shaodian Ziqing knew that Youyi had misunderstood, but did not explain.

He raised his sword and rushed towards the wolf pack opposite.

"kill!"
