Chapter 794 Kidnapped

Yu Yonggui and Qing Shuang quickly completed the three books and six ceremonies and got married.

On the wedding day, the scene was very lively.

Yu Yonggui's mouth was so wide that two jugs of wine could be hung from it.

Mrs. Wei sat in the chair at the top, looking at the young couple worshiping heaven and earth, feeling so relieved.

But Mrs. Wei thought that the next time there would be such a lively scene would be when Xingxing got married, and she couldn't help feeling sad.

But Mrs. Wei changed her mind and realized that her grandchildren were all getting married and starting their own families, and she also had a great-granddaughter, Miaomiao. The Yu family was getting better and better. If Xingxing chose to get married, she would definitely marry someone she liked and who could give her a lifetime of happiness.

How can this not be a good thing?

Mrs. Wei's eyes fell on Xing Xing and Wei Shiyan who were watching the ceremony on the side, and were full of love.

Everyone can see the friendship between these childhood sweethearts.

But none of the elders pointed out anything and allowed the two younger ones to walk forward slowly together.

…

Jiao came to look for Xingxing again. This time she brought a box and looked depressed.

Jiao felt heartbroken when she saw Xingxing treating her politely.

She placed the box on the small table in front of Xingxing: "...Xingxing, this is the dowry I prepared for you. I'm leaving now."

Xing Xing did not put the box away, and looked up at Jiao: "What do you mean by leaving?"

Jiao gave a bitter smile.

She went crazy that day, and was obsessed with getting Xingxing married. Later, she was severely scolded by the old lady of Duke Xin. She returned to her room in a daze and fell asleep without knowing when. She had a dream.

In the dream, Xingxing was not replaced and had continued to grow up under her lap.

Little Xingxing is cute and adorable. She would call her mother in a sweet voice, smile at her with two little pear-shaped smiles, and call out to her with tears in her eyes, "Mom, please get well soon" when she is sick.

Jiao was almost obsessed with watching Xingxing's growth for more than ten years in his dreams.

The moment she woke up from the dream, she realized what she had lost.

The intense pain she felt afterwards broke her heart. She had never hated the person who switched Xing Xing and Yu Ming Zhu so much.

Jiao just woke up from a big dream.

It happened that her eldest son Yu Chongjie was to be sent out for business. Jiao sat in her room for several hours and finally decided to go with Yu Chongjie.

Before leaving, Jiao quietly packed up some of her dowry and placed the deeds to the farm and shops in the box.

However, there were a few shops that were connected to the shop that Jiao gave to Yu Mingzhu, so Jiao's shop was initially managed by Yu Mingzhu.

Although Jiao later found out that Yu Mingzhu was not her biological daughter, she did not ask Yu Mingzhu to return the shop she had given away. As for the shops that Yu Mingzhu was in charge of, Jiao also turned a blind eye.

But not right now.

Now Jiao wants to give her property to Xingxing as a dowry. If she lets the account get mixed up, then things that should have belonged to Xingxing will end up in the hands of someone else.

Jiao felt that she had never been so clear-headed.

However, Jiao's return naturally alarmed Yu Mingzhu.

Yu Mingzhu was used to retreating in order to advance, so she immediately went to find Jiao, holding the deed to the shop that Jiao had given her and the deeds to the shops that she was in charge of. She cried and said that she should have returned them long ago. She was not greedy for the profits of the shops, but because they were birthday gifts from Jiao.

In the past, whenever Yu Mingzhu shed tears, Jiao would either feel extremely heartbroken or be extremely moved.

However, this time, Jiao already knew in her dream what she had lost, and no matter how much Yu Mingzhu cried, she was no longer shaken like before.

Jiao reached out and took out a few of the deeds that Yu Mingzhu had sent back, and handed them back to Yu Mingzhu: "These shops were given to you by me in the past. We are destined to be mother and daughter, and I won't ask you to take them back. Just think of them as my last gift to you... As for the others, they are for Xingxing, so it's not appropriate for you to manage them anymore."

Jiao collected all the seals and deeds of the shops.

Yu Mingzhu's face turned pale, and she wanted to say something, but Jiao had already politely asked her to leave.

…

Xingxing knew nothing about these events.

But she still did not accept the box of deeds sent by Jiao.

Xing Xing pushed the box of deeds towards Jiao again:

"Thank you, but I don't need it."

Jiao's face turned pale. She explained hastily, "I don't want to use this deed to exchange for your attitude towards me. This is the dowry I prepared for you..."

Her face was pale, and her voice even had a hint of pleading, "I am going to be sent out with your eldest brother, and I don't know how many years I will stay there. This dowry is what I, as your mother, should prepare for you..."

Xing Xing said softly, "You don't owe me anything. And there's no need to prepare a dowry for me."

Jiao was distraught and her face was as pale as paper, but she said nothing. She nodded, then left holding the box of deeds.

Jiao returned to the Mansion of Duke Xin and handed the box of deeds to the old lady of Duke Xin. She then sat with the old lady for half an hour before leaving.

The old lady of Duke Xin closed her eyes and sighed.

Why bother now if it were earlier?

…

When Xingxing woke up again, she was in a carriage.

Her hands and feet were tied and she was shaking violently. It was obvious that she was not on the road to the capital.

Xingxing was confused for a moment, then she remembered that she went out shopping as usual, and when she was walking in an alley, she seemed to be hit hard on the back of her head.

When I woke up again, I was in this carriage.

There was an unexpected acquaintance in the carriage.

It turned out to be Yang Xiangdie.

She was treated the same as Xingxing, with her hands and feet tied. She lay there, probably still unconscious.

The first thought that flashed through Xingxing's mind was Yang Xiangdie's treasure map.

The carriage jolted forward. Xing Xing said nothing, quickly analyzing the current situation.

The carriage felt like it was climbing upwards, and with the bumps it was shaking, it must be travelling on a mountain road.

But most of the mountain roads near the outskirts of Beijing are well maintained, so...

Is this far away from the capital?

Xing Xing frowned.

Her family must be very worried about her disappearance.

And as for Brother Yan, she also promised to bring him the snacks from Yushuzhai last time.

I just don't know who kidnapped her and Yang Xiangdie.

Bandit?

Or some enemy?

Xing Xing looked at her waist.

The sachet around her waist was taken away.

It seems that no matter who the other person is, he should know something about her.

Xing Xing was still calmly analyzing the situation when she heard a moan. It was Yang Xiangdie sitting opposite her who had woken up.

Yang Xiangdie was obviously still confused.

But before Xing Xing could stop her, Yang Xiangdie was already struggling and screaming: "Ah! Where is this!"

Xingxing closed her eyes.

The driver outside heard the noise inside, stopped the carriage, opened the curtain, and reached out to slap Yang Xiangdie in the face.

"If you don't want to die, be quiet!"

The driver slapped Yang Xiangdie without holding back, and half of her face quickly swelled up.

Yang Xiangdie was stunned by the beating and became completely quiet.

The driver glanced at Xing Xing, snorted coldly, and went out to drive again.

It took Yang Xiangdie a long time to recover. She was trembling slightly and her voice was filled with tears: "...Princess, we, we have been kidnapped?"

Xing Xing said “hmm”.

This is obvious.

Yang Xiangdie was about to cry again. Xing Xing glanced at her and kindly gave her some advice: "If you are not afraid that the driver will come in and beat you again, then just cry."

Yang Xiangdie fell silent.

Xing Xing closed her eyes and rested, but she was thinking in her heart that when the coachman lifted the curtain and came in just now, she looked out at an opportunity and saw only a clump of yangxin grass growing on the side of the road.

Yangxin grass likes shade and often grows in deep mountains where few people go. It does not grow in the mountains near the outskirts of Beijing.

Xingxing guessed the approximate location in her heart.

But Yang Xiangdie was in a panic, and she almost pleaded in a low voice: "Princess, please talk to me for a while... I, I'm so scared..."

Xing Xing opened her eyes and looked at Yang Xiangdie, and said comfortingly: "Don't be afraid."

When Yang Xiangdie heard the dry words "Don't be afraid", she almost couldn't hold back. She took a deep breath and said with a bit of resentment: "...Does the princess know that she has offended someone and implicated me as well?"

When Xingxing saw Yang Xiangdie like this, she was too lazy to pay attention to her anymore.

Instead of spending time talking to Yang Xiangdie, it would be better to conserve your energy and think of a strategy.

Xingxing believed that her family would look for her once they found out she was missing.

But the problem now is that they seem to have gone far away from the capital.

Xing Xing sighed silently.

The carriage continued to drive without stopping for about half an hour, and then stopped at a cliff. The driver untied the ropes tied around Xingxing and Yang Xiangdie's legs and drove Xingxing and Yang Xiangdie out of the carriage.

Yang Xiangdie's legs were shaking with fear, while Xingxing looked much more natural.

This caused the driver to look at Xing Xing a few more times.

The driver drove Xingxing and Yang Xiangdie into a hidden cave.

Then, after winding around the cave for a while, the view in front of us suddenly opened up to a huge empty cave with rock walls with many strange patterns painted on them.

The driver cupped his fist and said, "Master, I have fulfilled my mission and brought the two women here."

The man called master by the coachman turned around and looked at Xing Xing and Yang Xiangdie with a smile.

As soon as he raised his hand, someone came and took Yang Xiangdie away.

"Princess Fusui, I have heard of your great name for a long time." The man spoke.

Xingxing frowned slightly.

Judging from his appearance alone, this man has a pure Daxia face, and at first glance he speaks in the Daxia dialect.

But Xingxing had met Tuoba Chi, who was a mixed race of Daxia and Xiyi. He spoke Daxia dialect well, with only a slight Xiyi accent.

The man in front of me speaks a bit like Tuoba Chi.

Could it be another person from Xiyi?

"Who are you? Why are you tying me up?"

Xing Xing asked.

The man smiled and said, "It doesn't matter who I am. I tied you up and brought you here to do a small favor for my friend."

Xingxing frowned again.

The man smiled and sighed, "It's only natural that the princess doesn't know me. However, I have known the princess for a long time. The people I sent to my friend suffered many losses at the hands of the princess."

Have you suffered many losses at her hands?

An idea flashed through Xing Xing's mind, and she said with a somewhat strange look on her face: "You don't mean to say that your friend is... Yu Mingzhu?"

The man showed a bit of surprise on his face, then smiled and said, "They say the princess is smart, it's true."

There was no sign of relief on Xingxing's face.

He told her this information easily, without worrying at all about what she might do to Mingzhu after returning to Beijing.

It can only explain one thing.

I'm afraid the other party is certain that she can't return to the capital...

The man was obviously in a very good mood. He put his hands behind his back and asked, "My lord, what do you think of this place?"

Xingxing looked around carefully.

This terrain...

Her heart moved slightly, and she remembered the half treasure map that she had copied behind An Ningxin.

Plus, this guy also brought Yang Xiangdie with him...

Xing Xing's heart was pounding.

Could this person be coming for the treasure map?

Xing Xing's face remained calm: "I don't think so."

The man laughed and said, "Of course, the princess has no idea how wonderful this place is. But... the princess will know it soon."

He was obviously in a very good mood and had a smile on his face throughout the whole process.

When Xing Xing was being taken away, the man even had the leisure to remind her not to be too rude to the princess.

On the second day after Xingxing was brought to this place, she saw Yang Xiangdie's body.

Yang Xiangdie was dragged away with her back naked.

She had obviously suffered some abuse. There was almost no good flesh on her back, and some vague patterns and lines could be seen between her skin.

Xingxing was silent.

The man was obviously happier; he was in desperate need of someone to confide in.

Xing Xing, who he had basically decided to bury here, was the best listener - what could be safer than a dead person?

The man had a look of intoxication on his face. "The princess must be very surprised. What is this place? Now I am not afraid to tell the princess that this is a treasure trove of the royal family of the previous dynasty. I spent a lot of time and effort to make friends with Miss Yu. I asked her to find the key information in the study of the prince of Xinguo, and only then did I find this place."

Xing Xing looked indifferent.

The man looked at Xing Xing's face and smiled: "The princess is not very old, but she is very good at cultivating her Qi. She always looks calm. I wonder if the princess will have such a calm expression when I bury her in this treasure trove later?"

Xing Xing was not at all panicked when she suddenly learned from the man how she died.

She still looked at the man calmly.

The man was more and more surprised, and circled around Xing Xing: "...If I hadn't promised Miss Yu, I would really like to spend more time with the princess."

Xingxing thought, that’s for forgetting it!

Who wouldn't be frightened in such a situation? But she didn't want to show her weakness in front of this man, so she kept holding on.

In addition, Xingxing firmly believed that her relatives would find her in time.

The man probably wanted to tell the story too much. He rolled his eyes and asked with a smile, "My princess, do you know what the corpse you just dragged out gave me?"

When Xingxing saw the man mention Yang Xiangdie, she looked over again.

The man was extremely proud: "... Most of the terrain of this underground cave is tattooed on her back. Although I have almost done a thorough exploration, this map will definitely help us get twice the result with half the effort."
