Chapter 302 Mysterious Man
As Shen Fenghe spoke, he pushed the stone away and walked out of the cave.
If she hadn't appeared, I'm afraid everyone here would have died.
She doesn't like to owe others anything, nor does she like to drag others down.
Of course, she didn't come out on her own initiative to seek death.
As for these Northern Rong soldiers and hyenas, she has a revolver and a tranquilizer gun in her space, and... and the wolves she caught before. It shouldn't be a big problem to deal with these Northern Rong soldiers and hyenas.
More importantly, the masked man's words just now made her suddenly remember where she had seen him before.
When Yuan Xun saw her come out, he couldn't help but anxiously called out: "Miss Shen, why did you come out..."
Chen Fenghe smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Yuan, for concealing it for me just now. However, I really don't want to see anyone die because of me."
As she spoke, she glanced at the masked man and said calmly, "I am the deposed Crown Princess you are looking for. What do you want?"
A flash of light flashed in the man's eyes for a moment, but it quickly faded. He glanced at the cave behind her and asked calmly, "Since the Crown Princess is in the cave, I assume the Queen and the Ninth Prince are also there. Why don't they come out?"
As he spoke, he tilted his head and said, "Go in and search!"
Several Beirong soldiers immediately obeyed the order and walked towards the cave entrance.
Zhang Yuan's heart couldn't help but jump to his throat. His mother and wife were both in the cave!
He immediately rushed to the cave entrance to block it, saying in a trembling voice, "Who of you dares to take another step forward?"
The Beirong soldiers paused for a moment, then burst into laughter as if they were watching a joke.
Chen Fenghe asked, "The Queen and the Ninth Prince have already escaped and are not inside. Isn't it enough to just capture me, the Crown Princess?"
The man glanced at her indifferently and said, "Crown Princess, you're joking. It would be better if the Queen and the Ninth Prince were there. As for whether he's inside, we'll find out after searching!"
Upon hearing this, Shen Fenghe couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
It seems that it won't work if she goes out alone.
This is no wonder. The Beirong soldiers want to threaten and bribe the prince's old subordinates. Then, among the queen, the ninth prince and the crown princess, she, the crown princess, should be the one with the lowest value.
Moreover, if her guess was correct, these people were probably determined to get Qin Mengyue.
The man continued, "Also, the Crown Princess had better not try to use someone else to impersonate you. I happen to have your portraits for comparison..."
Before she finished speaking, Qin Mengyue pulled Xiao Yunhao out of the cave and said, "I am the queen you are looking for. You don't have to go in and search!"
Chen Fenghe turned around and held Qin Mengyue's arm, whispering, "Mother."
This was also what she discussed with Qin Mengyue before she came out just now.
If the other party would give up if she came out alone, Qin Mengyue and Xiao Yunhao would not show up.
If it doesn't work, it's not too late to come out then.
As long as they remained in this deep mountain instead of being taken to the Beirong territory, Chen Fenghe was still confident that she could guarantee the safety of the three of them.
As for Shen Yichuan and Shen Qingxing, Shen Fenghe asked Zhang Zhoushi and Zhang Yuan's wife to take care of them.
After they meet up with Chen Wu and Xiao Yunshuo later, Xiao Yunshuo will definitely protect them both.
Qin Mengyue looked at the masked man and said calmly, "I have already brought my child out. Could you please not hurt the others here?"
The masked man pondered for a moment, nodded, and said, "As long as the Queen, the Crown Princess, and the Ninth Prince are willing to accompany me to visit Beirong, I promise to let them go."
Qin Mengyue heard this, glanced at Chen Fenghe, then nodded and said, "Okay. We'll go with you."
Immediately, several Beirong soldiers took ropes and went to tie up Chen Fenghe and others.
Chen Fenghe couldn't help but sneer, "Your Excellency's invitation to visit Beirong as your guests means you're treating us as prisoners?"
The masked man stopped them with a shout, then apologized, "It was my men who were rude. I hope you can forgive me."
As he said this, he made a 'please' gesture.
Xiao Yunhao was still young, so he held Qin Mengyue's hand tightly, raised his head and said timidly, "Mother..."
Qin Mengyue's body was also shaking, but she still said softly and gently: "Don't be afraid, Hao'er, mother and your sister-in-law are here, everything will be fine."
Chen Fenghe took a deep breath and walked behind the man with Qin Mengyue and Xiao Yunhao. Immediately, the Beirong soldiers surrounded them.
They actually kept their word and didn't bother anyone else. They turned around and retreated into the woods.
At this moment, Yuan Xun suddenly said, "Wait a minute!"
The Northern Rong soldiers all turned their heads and looked at Yuan Xun with a little surprise.
Yuan Xun took a step forward and said seriously, "If you want to capture Madam Qin and Madam Shen, take me with you! I'm the officer responsible for escorting them. If I lose them, I'll be dead anyway. I might as well go with you. That way I'll have fulfilled my duty!"
When the Beirong soldiers heard this, they were stunned at first, and then they all burst into laughter.
A few people were talking in Beirong dialect, probably mocking the fact that someone would fall into the trap.
After hearing this, the other officers all started to say, "Brother Xun, you're crazy! Aren't you just going to die?"
Chen Fenghe couldn't help but turn around and said, "Master Yuan, why are you doing this?"
Yuan Xun, however, was determined. He said, "Brothers, keep a close eye on the other prisoners and don't let them escape during the chaos. Once we reunite, tell the commander about this. I know there's no guarantee of success even if I go along today, but... there's still a glimmer of hope. If we abandon them, I'm afraid everyone will be sentenced to death. So, brothers, please don't try to persuade us."
After hearing this, several officers lowered their heads and remained silent.
They were all responsible for escorting exiled prisoners. There were many high-ranking officials among those exiled. Some died on the way, but there were also many who died and escaped. Many of these officials would be convicted and beheaded.
The Empress, the Crown Princess and the Ninth Prince were abducted by the Northern Rong soldiers. If this matter is reported, no one can tell whether it will be a blessing or a curse!
The Beirong soldiers had no objection to capturing one more person. After getting the approval of the masked man, they nodded and asked Yuan Xun to walk to Chen Fenghe and others.
The Northern Rong soldiers then disappeared into the woods.
At this time, Xiao Yunshuo and Chen Wu in the cave, although the opponent had suffered a lot of injuries from the mechanisms and traps in the early stage, they could not withstand the opponent's large numbers, so they could only fight and retreat.
The attackers shouted in unfamiliar Dayu Mandarin, "Call out your Dayu Queen, Crown Princess, and Ninth Prince, and I will… spare… your lives!"
Xiao Yunshuo frowned, swung his sword, cut off the arms of two people, forced back the people rushing up from behind, and then shouted coldly:
"Who ordered you to do this? Why are you looking for the Empress, the Crown Princess, and the Ninth Prince?"
