Chapter 304 The Praying Mantis Catch the Cicada, The Oriole is Behind ([-])

Although it is spring now, it is still a bit chilly in the early morning.

And the little prince is too young to stay outside for too long.

Yan Jingshen looked at the sleeping baby and said, "Brother Yuan Yu, let's go back and talk if we have something to say, the little prince must be hungry."

"Okay..." Li Yuanyu hurriedly held his son in his arms.

It was his first time to be a father, and he had never held such a small child before, so his movements were inevitably clumsy.

Fortunately, the little prince was very well-behaved and still slept soundly.

Yan Jingshen helped him adjust his posture, and asked someone to bring his mount over.

Li Yuanyu didn't care to think too much, and got on the horse carefully.

The journey of more than [-] miles would take half an hour on weekdays, but today it took them nearly three times as long to return to the palace.

The little prince disappeared, the queen fainted... a series of events made people in the palace panic.

Li Yuanyu's return should have had an immediate effect on stabilizing people's hearts.

However, after hearing that the little prince was safe and sound, Zarhe, the always prudent palace chief, still panicked.

"My lord, something is wrong." He hurried over to salute.

"Is it Shuang'er's side..." Li Yuanyu's head buzzed, and he felt that the world was spinning.

Yan Jingshen reached out to support him: "What happened?"

Zarhe said: "It's not the queen, it's Miss Xia..."

"What did you say?!" Yan Jingshen changed his previous calmness, and grabbed Zalhe's collar with his backhand.

After knowing him for so long, Li Yuanyu has never seen this side of him, and his flustered heart has calmed down a lot.

He held Yan Jingshen's hand, and urged: "When are you still so hesitant, hurry up and tell the truth!"

Jamuhe hurriedly said: "After the prince left yesterday, Miss Xia has been taking care of the empress, and she didn't go back to her room to rest until four o'clock.

The empress woke up early this morning, still very excited.

Huaying and the others couldn't persuade her, so they had to go to Miss San, but she disappeared. "

"It's gone?" Yan Jingshen said angrily, "The palace's guards have been so strict these two days, how can she grow wings and fly like a living person?!"

Li Yuanyu thought to himself, Jing Shen really has a deep-rooted affection for the third sister.

Just now he advised himself not to worry, but when the third sister had an accident, he almost went crazy.

"Jingshen, now is not the time to pursue this matter, this matter is absolutely inseparable from Gu Yannan, we must quickly find the third sister."

Yan Jing took a deep breath.

The mantis catches the cicada and the oriole is behind, after all, it is still careless.

He and Devil Pepper agreed that Gu Yannan's target was Li Yuanyu and Xia Fanshuang, but he had other plans.

This fellow is not only deeply cunning, but the most important thing is that his thinking is completely different from that of ordinary people.

Although Devil Pepper is the granddaughter of Grand Master Xia, according to common sense, her value is far less than that of the little prince.

But Gu Yannan tried his best to exchange the little prince, but he just used him as bait, and kidnapped the devil pepper with a trick of diverting the tiger away from the mountain.

A mercenary like him naturally has a purpose in doing things.

So what is his purpose of kidnapping Devil Pepper?

"Brother Yuan Yu goes to settle down the little prince first, so as to appease the empress, I will definitely find my junior sister back as soon as possible."

"This..." Li Yuanyu thought for a while, and told Zarhe: "From now on, everyone in the palace will be under the command of the Second Young Master. You must manage your manpower well and cooperate with the Second Young Master."

"Yes." Zar agreed.

※※※※

Xia Yueliang was woken up by the carriage shaking.

She tried her best to tear her eyes open, and what she saw was a nearly perfect handsome face.

"Gu Yannan?" Her tone was very calm, and there was no wave in her expression.

Gu Yannan smiled lightly: "Sure enough, I haven't let me down. Miss Xia is even better than two years ago. No matter what the situation is, she can be fearless in the face of danger."

Xia Yueliang moved her numb limbs, surprised that the other party did not restrict her freedom.

Of course, in the eyes of others, she is just a weak girl with no power to restrain her, so there is absolutely no need to tie her up.

She sat up straight and sorted out the somewhat messy dress and the broken hair on her forehead.

"Should I call you Young Master Gu, or Prince Baili?"

The corners of Gu Yannan's mouth curved.

"A name is just a title, no matter what my surname is, I am still myself, there will be no change.

But the girl and I are old acquaintances, and the old address is of course more affectionate. "

Xia Yueliang sneered and said: "Don't dare, I haven't met you a few times, I haven't even spoken to you alone before, if old acquaintances say they can't be treated, let alone being friendly.

Mr. Gu didn't stay in Yu country to fight for power and profit, so he came all the way to Yasu City, is it possible that he just wanted to talk nonsense with me? "

"The third girl's eloquence is far beyond my imagination. She really deserves to be the daughter of Fourth Master Xia, and it's not comparable to those stupid girls."

His words were suspected of being flattering, but his tone was very sincere, and even full of appreciation.

There was a twitch on Xia Yueliang's back.

What does this guy mean?
Of course, she wouldn't think that Gu Yannan had taken a fancy to her, after all, the two were not familiar with each other, and there was a difference in age of seven or eight years.

Two years ago, she was a 12-year-old girl, but he was a handsome young man who had reached the crown.

She didn't think that a bean sprouts was so attractive that it could make the beautiful Gu Yannan fall in love with him.

Gu Yannan suddenly reached out to her.

The knuckles of his hand are clear and slender, which can be said to be one of the most beautiful hands Xia Yueliang has ever seen.

But she is not a nymphomaniac, let alone a face control, it is impossible for her to be distracted.

Xia Yueliang shrank back, avoiding his movements in time.

"When did Mr. Gu become so tasteless when he touches strange girls?"

Gu Yannan sighed lightly: "Don't be nervous, I have no ill intentions towards you."

"I don't care whether you have good intentions or malicious intentions, let me go as soon as possible, otherwise you will definitely regret it!"

Gu Yannan smiled and said: "We have already left the Yasu King City very far away, and we are not familiar with the place, so what's the use of being smart?"

Xia Yueliang was too lazy to continue arguing with him, so she turned her head and opened the car window.

This place is not a desert, but it is not an oasis like the one near Yasu King City.

It was exactly noon at this time, and she couldn't judge the direction according to the sun.

However, the east, south, and west directions of Yasu King City are all deserts, indicating that the carriage has been heading north.

On the north side of Yasu King City...

Xia Yueliang tried hard to recall the maps she had seen.

There are several countries near Yasu City, and it should be the Wanwan Kingdom to the north.

The name of the country is very strange, even a little cute. The land area is smaller than Yasu City, and the population is even smaller.

The most important thing is that although Wanwan Kingdom is not a subsidiary state of any country, their queen is Princess Yu.
