Chapter 81 Princess Su
Qin Mingzhu was speechless for a moment.
Faced with such straightforward and passionate emotions, she had no power to resist.
Yan Fengxiao's expression became more serious. "Someone will be here soon. Go back first."
Qin Mingzhu shook her head and said, "I have the ability to protect myself. Uncle Chen and the others are all elite soldiers and generals with extraordinary skills. They will not cause any trouble to the governor."
Yan Fengxiao was afraid that there might be danger here.
However, seeing that Qin Mingzhu did not leave, he immediately ordered his men to be on high alert.
Yan Qinghao, who had almost died but managed to survive, still had a dull look in his eyes. He lay on the ground like a dead pig, trembling slightly.
Not long after, the sound of horse hooves was heard on the street.
A dozen people rode their horses through the alley and headed straight for the area where the fireworks had just exploded.
The person in the lead was a woman in plain clothes. She looked heroic in her red outfit, and her face was very bright and attractive.
Between her eyebrows was painted a plum blossom ornament popular in the northern border, which added a touch of charm to her already charming face.
She was riding in the front, with a gloomy look on her face as she urged them on.
"Hurry up, Brother Hao is in danger!"
"Yes, Your Highness, hello..."
A dozen men in black following her rushed forward like crazy, completely ignoring whether there were pedestrians on the road.
A night watchman holding a gong and a drum just passed by here when he was whipped in the face and rolled over screaming. The others ran over without even looking at him, raising a cloud of dust.
The woman in the lead was none other than Princess Su of the Northern Frontier Kingdom, Lan Su.
After her mother was abducted by the former emperor of the Northern Frontier Kingdom, the former emperor took pity on her young age and her inability to leave her mother, so he brought her into the palace and conferred the title of princess on her.
From then on, she became the late emperor's favorite youngest daughter. In addition, her two brothers made great contributions to the new emperor's ascension to the throne, so it was natural for her to continue to enjoy this wealth and glory.
She has also become the princess with the most special status in Northern Xinjiang today.
Although she wasn't of royal blood, she was more favored than the other princesses. Although she was an adopted sister, the new emperor treated her like his own daughter. Even if she made mistakes, she was rarely punished. No matter what she wanted, someone would quickly deliver it to her...
Princess Su led a group of people into the dilapidated courtyard where the people from the Governor's Mansion were.
This place is not far from the city gate. It was dug out by the old marquis specifically for his escape.
As for why they didn't dig out of the city, it was because it was not easy to dig out. The city walls were high and the foundation was deep. If it was easy to dig through, everyone would come to dig.
"Your Highness, it's right here!"
Princess Su pulled the reins and stopped with her guards.
Looking at the people inside the low courtyard wall, Princess Su's face looked very ugly.
She followed the prison van escorted by the Governor's Office all the way to the Kingdom of Southern Yan, taking countless risks.
Many people were sent to hijack the prison van on the road, but they all failed in the end.
As for why she didn't directly arrange more people to hijack, it was because she didn't have many subordinates, and at most she could mobilize more than a hundred people.
These men were elite soldiers trained by his brother for her, specifically to protect her safety. She used to think there were too many of them, but now when it was time to use them, she realized that they were not enough!
When Yan Fengxiao saw a group of people appear, his eyes lit up.
Even Qin Mingzhu was a little surprised.
Her Royal Highness the Princess is truly courageous!
Now the two armies are still fighting on the border. As a member of the enemy royal family, she dared to come to the Kingdom of Southern Yan and even march straight in at all costs.
In order to save Yan Qinghao, she really didn't even care about her life. Qin Mingzhu was even a little shocked.
Princess Su broke into the yard under the protection of a group of guards.
She looked around coldly, and finally her gaze fell on Yan Qinghao.
Seeing her beloved one lying on the ground, covered in blood and tied up, Princess Su's expression suddenly changed. She said in a cold voice, "Let him go!"
Yan Fengxiao waved his hand gently.
The next moment, everyone in the Governor's Mansion drew their swords.
It looked like a fight would break out in the next moment.
One of the people who was protecting Princess Su immediately rode forward, looking serious but speaking in a very organized manner.
"This must be Governor Yan, I've heard your name for a long time. Now that I've met you, I can see you're truly worthy of your name."
Yan Fengxiao asked someone to lift Yan Qinghao up from the ground.
He walked out of the crowd and came to a position not far ahead of the people from the Northern Frontier.
Although the opponent was riding a horse, he was standing on the ground, and his momentum did not diminish in the slightest.
Even when I saw him walking towards me with a knife in hand, I could still feel the strong sense of oppression emanating from him.
"Who gave you the courage to come to my Southern Yan Imperial City?"
The leader of the guards from the Northern Frontier Kingdom seemed to hesitate for a moment and jumped off his horse.
"Greetings, Commander-in-Chief Yan. This is Princess Su from my Northern Frontier Kingdom. His Majesty recently sent envoys to Southern Yan to discuss peace talks. Princess Su is just a step ahead."
"Is that true?"
Yan Fengxiao raised his eyebrows slightly, with suspicion clearly in his eyes.
"Of course it's true. If you don't believe it, Commander Yan can report Princess Su's visit to the Southern Yan Imperial City to the Emperor of Southern Yan at any time."
Princess Su kept a cold face and said nothing more.
Although she had a bad temper, she still knew her limits, so she asked Tan Mu, the leader of her personal guards, to negotiate.
Yan Fengxiao said calmly, "To rush into the Imperial City without an ultimatum in advance is not the attitude of Northern Xinjiang in negotiating peace."
"Governor, please calm down. Her Highness the Princess has a somewhat stubborn personality, and since she's been pampered by our Emperor, she doesn't quite understand the rules of Southern Yan. For the sake of the future of both countries, please don't dwell on these trivial matters..."
As he spoke, he took out a thick stack of silver bills from his arms.
It can be used in both Southern Yan and Northern Xinjiang.
Qin Mingzhu was standing not far behind Yan Fengxiao. When she saw this scene, the corner of her eye twitched slightly.
This Princess Su also seemed to be very rich. She was very generous and spent several thousand taels of silver at a time.
You know, even if Yan Fengxiao sits in this position, his annual salary is actually not that much. Five or six thousand taels of silver is enough to make many officials tempted.
Unfortunately, the other party's bribe hit a wall.
Yan Fengxiao lowered his eyes and looked at the banknotes handed over by the other party, "Are you trying to bribe me?"
"That's not the case. These are just gifts for the governor. There are more benefits to come. There are many misunderstandings in the matter of Marquis Dingyuan. The reason why Her Royal Highness the Princess came all the way here in person is to testify for the Marquis and prove his innocence!"
Yan Fengxiao narrowed his eyes: "Come here, capture them all!"
The sudden change of attitude left the leader of the guards who delivered the silver stunned for a moment.
By the time he reacted, Yan Fengxiao's long sword was already on his neck.
There were nearly thirty people from the Governor's Mansion and about twenty from the General's Mansion, totaling more than fifty people. They surrounded the dozen people brought by Princess Su in an instant.
Seeing this, Princess Su's pretty face turned cold. "I am Princess Su of the Northern Frontier Kingdom, the most beloved sister of the Northern Frontier Emperor. If you attack me, you'd better think about the consequences!"
"Princess? I've never seen any Northern Frontier princess in the Southern Yan Imperial City. Have you ever seen one?"
