Using a mountain of coal to attract Kang Yueran, the prince's followers must be curious about the uses of coal. She said, "Coal, like firewood, is used for burning fires. Coal burns hotter than firewood, so using coal instead of firewood is more economical and convenient."
"Just that?"
"Sir, if you continue to ask questions like this, I am afraid that the two witnesses will not be able to come before you alive."
Ming Qing thought that death would be better. "Your Majesty, Captain Qin, what do you think?"
Qin Cheng stood up and said, "I will go to the palace now to ask for permission and personally lead people to bring back the two witnesses."
Chai Shijing smiled and said, "Okay, I'll talk to Minister Ming for a while." This was to prevent Ming Qing from going out and informing the emperor.
Qin Cheng then said to Kang Yueran, "If His Majesty permits, please take us to Biyun Mountain."
"good!"
Emperor Jianning had previously heard Chai Shijing talk about raising private soldiers and casting private weapons, and he even broke several teacups.
No one could guarantee whether those people and weapons were aimed at him, or whether they would be aimed at him one day.
After Qin Cheng's report, Emperor Jianning immediately understood that the private soldiers were the Crown Prince's. Mingqing was the Crown Prince's man, and without Mingqing's help, the two witnesses would not have been able to escape from the Ministry of Justice's prison.
"Qin Cheng, you will personally take three thousand imperial guards and set off immediately to bring all the people from Shengzhou back to me."
"Yes!" Qin Cheng received the order and immediately gathered all the people, went to the Ministry of Justice to pick up Kang Yueran, and went to Shengzhou.
We traveled quickly all the way and arrived at Shengzhou at midnight.
Holding the imperial edict, the yamen runners immediately opened the door. Qin Cheng ordered 500 people to go to Miao Hai's house and the Miao family's shop and take control of all the managers, shopkeepers, and servants.
He took the remaining people from the west city gate and went to Biyun Mountain.
When he reached the foot of the mountain, he sent people to surround the manor and broke in directly. There were only a few servants and maids in the manor. Miao Hai and Lu Zhong were nowhere to be seen. The study was burned and everything inside was burned.
Qin Cheng left behind eight hundred people to continue ransacking the house, and under the leadership of Kang Yueran, they headed towards the wolf pack's lair.
As soon as they reached the mountain, Kang Yueran shouted loudly, "White Tiger, Wolf King."
The white tiger sensed Kang Yueran's arrival, let out a tiger roar, and flew down the mountain to find her.
Kang Yueran said to everyone: "The white tiger is mine, it will not hurt you."
Controlling the white tiger and the wolf king was already incredible, and seeing such a huge white tiger was even more eye-opening for Qin Cheng and the imperial guards.
Seeing Baihu, Kang Yueran asked, "Are those two people dead?"
Baihu shook his head.
Qin Cheng stuttered a little, "It, it can understand human language?"
"It's simple enough to understand, let's go!"
In the wolf pack's lair, about three hundred wolves stared at the imperial guards with their green eyes, scaring many of them into sweating profusely.
Kang Yueran led Qin Cheng into Ah Er's cave and pointed at the two people on the ground and said, "Take them away!"
Ever since they opened their eyes, the wolf and tiger had either been staring at them simultaneously, either the white tiger or the wolf king. If they even moved their legs slightly, the wolf and tiger would instantly leap to their feet, ready to pounce and devour them.
Seeing humans at this moment, the two were so excited that they didn't ask who the other party was. They just kept shouting, "Take us away, take us away from here."
Qin Cheng grabbed one in each hand and walked out of the cave.
Kang Yueran took out the letter that Luan Da had hidden from the space and left the cave.
She handed the letter to Qin Cheng. "This is what Luan Da hid in Ah Er's cave. He said that after he stole two of the letters, the stewards in the back mountain searched for them for a long time. It should be useful to you, so I'll give it to you!"
"Thank you, young lady!" Qin Cheng took the letter and put it in his arms.
"You're welcome. I'll take you to the back mountain."
The back mountain was not only deserted but also burned down. Qin Cheng sent people to check everywhere to see if there was any evidence left.
Kang Yueran stayed on the high ground and didn't come down. She touched Baihu's head and said, "Go back and ask the wolf pack if they plan to stay here or return home."
Qin Cheng didn't go down either. He wanted to stay and protect Kang Yueran. "Miss Kang, how do you command the wolf pack?" He was very curious.
"Actually, I don't know how to command the wolves. The wolves listen to me because the wolf king listens to me. The wolf king listens to me because he knows the white tiger. The white tiger listens to me because he is raised by my master."
"Do you know why Miao Hai led you to Biyun Mountain?"
Kang Yueran nodded. "Luan Da said he received an order to lead the wolf pack to kill me, but he didn't expect me to come so quickly and so suddenly. He said the master of this back mountain is the prince, and the prince wants to harm me because of A Jing. I can understand."
Ah Jing? Qin Cheng thought, perhaps neither His Majesty nor the Imperial Concubine had ever addressed Prince Ping in that way. "How did Luan Da know that the master here was the Crown Prince?"
Kang Yueran thought to herself, it's finally about to begin! Today, she must make Qin Cheng, this tough guy, show some tenderness!
She lowered her head, suppressed her inner joy, and recalled the scene of Qingping Mountain littered with wolf corpses.
When he raised his head again, his face was filled with resentment, his eyes filled with determination. He asked, "Captain Qin, if half of the personal soldiers you grew up with were killed, would you find out who the murderer was? Would you seek revenge for them? Your personal soldiers are to you what wolves are to Luan Da."
Luan Da and the wolf pack had been living happily on Xiufeng Mountain in Yuezhou. It was Duke Lu who sent troops to Xiufeng Mountain and killed half of the wolves, forcing them to come to Biyun Mountain.
Kang Yueran sighed, looked into the distance, and continued, "That night, I took my Wolf King and White Tiger to explore Biyun Mountain at night. Ah Er tried to stop me from going up the mountain, so I let the Wolf King duel with Ah Er. The Wolf King won, and Ah Er died.
