Chapter 480 Kidnapping
Yun Zhao seemed unhurried.
However, these kidnappers were worried that Xie Jingmo's men would catch up with them all the way.
The carriage headed westward since late at night, and the sky gradually brightened.
The first rays of morning light fell on the vast ground. Several kidnappers looked at Yun Zhao, who was sleeping with her eyes closed and breathing evenly. One of them snorted in dissatisfaction, "She is so calm that she can still sleep. Is she so sure that Xie Jingmo will come to rescue her?"
The other man looked at Yun Zhao solemnly and said coldly, "Don't underestimate her. Mu Chengyan said before that this woman has been in the military camp and should not be underestimated. Don't take her lightly, or you will fail at the last moment. You all should be extremely alert and keep a close eye on her."
"Chief," said a bearded man sitting opposite, "Aren't you being too cautious? I think she's just a fair and tender young lady. Look, we were hiding in the Plum Rain Restaurant, and they didn't notice us, didn't they? Besides, we succeeded so easily tonight, which means this young lady isn't as smart as Mu Chengyan said. Mu Chengyan likes her, so naturally he has a filter in his mind."
The other man nodded. "I think so too. Look, we were able to succeed with just a little trick. If we were in Kyoto, it wouldn't be easy to say. But now that we're out of Kyoto, there's absolutely no need for me to be so cautious. How can a few grown men like us not be able to handle a little girl like this?"
The bearded man nodded and said gruffly, "That's right. We are deputy generals in the military camp. You are the leader of a foreign country, how dare you be afraid of this young lady? The Xie family army is brave, but before this, we have never been defeated against other tribes. We can easily deal with those people, let alone such a weak young lady."
The others nodded repeatedly.
The foreign leader looked at the woman who was sleeping with her eyes closed, but he could not feel at ease.
He could sleep peacefully in this kidnapped situation. Either he was really heartless or he had it all planned out. This was too easy and he couldn't feel at ease.
Besides, could the woman who has been cared about by Xie Jingmo for so many years be just a pretty fool?
He doesn't believe it.
The foreign leader narrowed his eyes and cast a heavy gaze on Yun Zhao. For some reason, he felt a surge of irritation in his heart.
He raised his leg and kicked Yun Zhao's leg, then shouted coldly, "Hey! Stop sleeping!"
The woman opposite slowly raised her eyelashes, which trembled a few times before she slowly opened her eyes.
"What's wrong?"
The foreign leader frowned at her, "You're about to be destroyed, and you're still sleeping! There will be plenty of opportunities for you to sleep in the future!"
Yun Zhao smiled lazily when she heard that. She sat upright, but her smile was casual.
Her voice was low and soft, with a hint of laziness as if she had just woken up, which made the men opposite her stunned.
Until he saw Yun Zhao looking at them in confusion.
The men finally came back to their senses.
I cursed silently in my heart.
Damn it.
This woman is poisonous!
Yun Zhao smiled. The morning light shone through the carriage curtains onto her fair face. Yun Zhao asked, "Where is this?"
Someone was about to answer.
He was glared at fiercely by the foreign leader.
Yun Zhao saw it and smiled again. "Don't worry, this place is quite far from the capital. Even if the people in Kyoto wanted to catch up, they wouldn't be able to find us for the time being." Yun Zhao pointed at the dark circles under the eyes of the people opposite him. "There seems to be an inn up ahead. Do you want to go and rest? It's not good for your health to travel too fast if you're too tired."
Several men were stunned again when they heard Yun Zhao's words.
"You still have time to worry about us?"
"Just understand, you've been kidnapped, not on vacation. What's the point of all this leisurely behavior?"
"Besides, why should you worry about whether we are tired or not?"
The bearded man said angrily.
Yun Zhao looked at him seriously. "Look at you. You're so angry. Did you feel dizzy in the afternoon? You were restless and couldn't sleep at night. You kept getting up at night? Your solar plexus is swollen and painful, and you can't get relief."
The bearded man's furious expression just now gradually turned into a face full of question marks after hearing these words.
"You're observing me?" After a few seconds, the bearded man became even angrier. "What are you thinking?"
"Hahaha!" Yun Zhao covered his mouth and laughed. "What could I possibly be thinking? I know you girls from the borderland like rough and unruly men, like your type, but I don't like that. I like handsome and straight-cut men. I didn't observe you, I just saw it from your face."
The bearded man narrowed his eyes at me, "Do you think we will believe you? You are just like Mu Chengyan said, spreading lies to confuse the public and are the best at deceiving people!"
Yun Zhao didn't say a word to defend himself.
He simply looked up at the men sitting opposite him and described their respective illnesses one by one.
It is difficult for soldiers to be free of injuries, so when they are on high alert, they naturally don’t feel anything.
But they have been undercover in Kyoto recently and rarely go out during the day, mostly resting in their rooms.
Those illnesses will naturally show up slowly in a relaxed environment.
So, as Yun Zhao spoke, they nodded.
Finally, when they finished speaking, they all looked at Yun Zhao with their mouths wide open.
Yun Zhao's gaze slowly moved to the end of the carriage, to the man sitting in the shadows.
If I'm not mistaken.
This man is their boss.
Yun Zhao curled his lips and smiled softly, "If I'm not mistaken, you have a problem in that area. I suggest you-"
The rest of the words were not spoken yet.
All he heard was the sharp blade being unsheathed, and with a clang, the sword was placed against Yun Zhao's neck.
"If you dare to say a single word of nonsense, I will kill you right now!"
Yun Zhao lowered her eyes and looked at the sword on her neck. She smiled slightly, pinched the sword blade with her fingers, and moved the sword away from her neck.
"I am Xie Jingmo's soon-to-be-married queen. If you touch me, you will have no bargaining chips in your hands in the future confrontation. It's just a casual chat in the carriage, why are you so eager to interrupt me? What? Did I hit the nail on the head? You really are that way—"
Yun Zhao's eyes were full of meaning as he slowly added the last three words, "There is a problem."
After Yun Zhao's words, the faces of the people in the carriage changed immediately.
Yun Zhao therefore guessed that the other party's identity should be quite high, perhaps -
Frontier generals, or foreign leaders, Yun Zhao in front did not fall asleep at first, but she could not understand their chattering in the foreign dialect, so she made this test.
Yun Zhao thought that the person sitting in the dark was most likely a foreign leader.
Yun Zhao narrowed his eyes, and amidst the increasingly panicked expressions of the crowd, he said calmly, "But it's not untreatable."
"You know, right?"
"The previous emperor couldn't give birth to a boy. All the first borns were princesses. Finally, it was me. I found a way to make him give birth to a boy."
Yun Zhao's gaze fell on the last person, "So, if you need anything, you can ask me for help. After all, doctors have a kind heart."
As soon as these words came out.
The looks in everyone's eyes changed from wanting to kill Yun Zhao and avenge their fallen comrades to now being able to put aside some of their eagerness.
"Tell me, how should we treat it?" The bearded man looked at Yun Zhao and added guiltily, "Of course, I'm not saying that our leader really has problems in that area!"
When Yun Zhao heard this, he curled his lips slightly.
That man is truly the frontier leader.
As soon as the bearded man finished speaking, he realized that he had said the wrong thing. He immediately covered his mouth and glared at Yun Zhao fiercely.
Yun Zhao smiled and said, "I am a doctor. No matter who the patient is, they are all the same to me. There is no distinction between the noble and the humble."
"What I'm saying now may seem a bit shallow, and you may not believe me."
"I see, it's several days' journey from the border now. Do you think this will work?"
"I'll treat you first. If it works, you can let me treat your leader. What do you say?"
When everyone heard this, the wariness on their faces disappeared instantly.
They thought this young lady looked quite sincere.
Everyone looked at the last person, who slowly nodded.
Yun Zhao curled his lips and smiled slowly.
The leader sitting at the back kept his eyes on Yun Zhao.
This woman is really smart.
Treat these generals first, break their psychological defenses one by one, and ensure that they will not attack her during this journey, thus buying herself some time.
only--
The foreign leader slowly narrowed his eyes.
Are this woman's medical skills as amazing as she says?
If there is any exaggeration, don't blame him for causing her to lose limbs along the way!
