Chapter 530 Disappointment

The next day, Su Yue got up at dawn, had breakfast, and went into the tunnel with Yueying.

They walked out of the tunnel, still through the same opening as before, and looked at the ground, but found no footprints.

She was very confused. She saw footprints when she came out last time, so why were there none this time?

Didn't he go through this tunnel?

"Princess, didn't the people living in that yard go through the tunnel?" Yueying asked.

Su Yue shook her head: "I don't know."

She really didn't know. Last time, those people went through the tunnel and exposed their whereabouts. Maybe this time they would do the opposite and not go through the tunnel, but enter the mountain from other places.

The reason why they were believed to have gone into the mountains instead of into the capital was simply because there were envoys and people from various major forces coming to the capital, and the defense of the capital was not only not relaxed, but was tightened.

Gang leader Ma would not choose this time to go to Beijing.

So she and Yueying went back, and when they returned to the yard, it was already noon.

After walking back and forth, the two felt a little tired, so they simply went into the space to have lunch.

"Princess, who is this person here, and why do we have to find him?"

After dinner, Yueying asked in confusion.

"They are descendants of the Niu family."

"Descendants of the previous dynasty?" Yueying was surprised.

"Yes, so we have to catch them. You know what happened in the palace before the New Year, right?"

Yueying nodded.

"That's what they did. The leader of the Ma Gang was caught on the spot and later imprisoned in the Sky Prison. They wanted to interrogate him before beheading him, but he escaped.

If you don't find this guy, he will definitely cause trouble on the day Murong Li ascends the throne."

Who knows how big a mess he will get into.

Yueying let out a long sigh after hearing this. So that's how it was. Although she didn't directly participate in that thrilling palace coup, she had heard of it.

If the prince and princess had not turned the tide, the Xifeng Kingdom would have changed its owner.

Such people should indeed be caught and killed on the spot to prevent future troubles.

Then the two of them came out of the space and headed towards the mountains to search.

The leader of the horse gang did go into the mountains. There was a village at the end of the mountains, and they were in that village.

So Su Yue didn't find them. There was a fork in the tunnel, and if someone was not familiar with the fork, it would be impossible to find it.

Su Yue and the other person were walking hurriedly in the tunnel and didn't notice that there was another mechanism on the wall of the tunnel, so they missed it.

After having lunch and arranging everything, Gang Leader Ma prepared to sneak into the capital.

Suddenly, he felt panicky and frowned. He was so nervous just as he was about to go to Beijing. Could something happen?

In fact, Gang Leader Ma has always had this ability. Whenever he encounters something dangerous, he will panic.

It was with such early warning that he avoided countless dangers.

The leader of the Ma Gang immediately called over one of his men and said to him, "Take my wife and the others and leave here immediately. Don't go through the tunnel. Take the normal road and go straight into the city."

The city he was talking about was a small county town nearby.

They also have a base in the city and have bought a house.

It is said that a cunning rabbit has three burrows, but he has more than three burrows, he has ten.

They left without saying anything and changed places without saying anything. This kind of situation had happened frequently before, so the subordinate was used to it. He then took Mrs. Ma and their children, got on the carriage and left the village.

Half of the people in this village are members of the Flying Eagle Gang. They were not surprised to see them leave and even covered for them.

After his wife and children left, Gang Leader Ma's panic disappeared a lot, but he immediately told his men to leave the village as well.

This village is not safe anymore. We must be being targeted.

He, his wife and children were walking in the opposite direction from Su Yue and the others.

So Su Yue didn't meet them.

When they finished walking through the mountains, they found that there was indeed a village.

Su Yue immediately used her mental power to check, but found nothing unusual.

She was a little disappointed. Was her feeling wrong?

"Princess, would you like me to go down and take a look?"

Su Yue glanced at her and said, "With what you're wearing, it will definitely attract attention. It's better not to go."

At first glance, you can tell that Yueying is not a girl from an ordinary family, but a lady from a wealthy family.

How could it not arouse suspicion that a young lady who seemed to come from a wealthy family suddenly appeared in such a place?

Anyway, she didn't find anything unusual, so it didn't matter whether Yueying went or not.

The two returned disappointed.

After returning, Su Yue stayed in the Flying Eagle Gang for another two or three days. The two of them cleaned the places that needed cleaning. She also asked Yueying to go to the nearby city to buy a family of servants to guard the place.

First, to prevent someone from coming to fight for the throne, and second, to prevent the leader of the Ma Gang and his men from coming back again.

After a few days, they still couldn't find any trace of Gang Leader Ma and his men, so they decided to go back.

What she didn't know was that Murong Li had been subjected to countless waves of assassination attempts in the past few days. The wave of assassinations last night was the most severe, and he was injured. He attended the morning court with injuries.

In the court, Murong Li glanced at General Wei, who was standing at the end of the line, and said, "General Wei, please step out."

General Wei, who had always been invisible, suddenly heard Murong Li calling him. He immediately stepped out of the line and said with a bow, "I am here."

"I am sending you five thousand elite soldiers. General Wei will be fully responsible for the safety of the capital, especially at night."

Five thousand elite soldiers were transferred from the military camp outside the city, and a total of ten thousand elite soldiers were transferred back this time.

The emperor gave up the throne and the military power of the military camp outside the city was also handed over to him.

Murong Li decided to make use of General Wei, so he decided to let him make some achievements. This was the best opportunity.

General Wei said solemnly, "I will definitely fulfill my mission."

He straightened his back instantly, and his military aura suddenly returned.

All the ministers looked at him, knowing that the former general had returned and his future as a general would be smooth sailing.

After the court session, Murong Li invited General Wei, the Minister of Military Affairs, the Minister of Rites, and Mr. Su to the Imperial Study and assigned them separate tasks.

By the way, he gave the portrait of the leader of the Ma Gang to General Wei: "General Wei Zhang, this is the portrait of the leader of the Ma Gang. This man must be arrested, but he is good at disguise, so you must investigate carefully."

After receiving the news from Yueying, Murong Li knew that Gang Leader Ma would definitely sneak back to the capital, but he had been busy the whole time, so he arranged this matter today.

General Wei took the portrait and felt a sense of familiarity when looking at the person in the painting. Then he respectfully accepted the order.

This was the first time Murong Li assigned him a task, and the person was such an important one. He had to catch him no matter what to live up to Murong Li's trust in him.
