The boss of a foreign organization called the police, claiming that he was defrauded by me

Yu Meiren was a very sensible woman, so she decided to set off with Yang Xia as soon as possible.

Since the wedding attire was already sewn and they could set off at any time, the two decided to take these items to the Kingdom of Nagi the next morning.

Yang Xia was right; the road to Zhuaqi Kingdom was indeed rugged and uneven, and their caravan was still moving very slowly.

Yang Xia and Yu Meiren traveled through mountains and rivers, finally arriving in the Kingdom of Zhuaqi, both of them exhausted.

"Your Majesty, we've finally arrived. Luckily, we set off early, or we would have missed this auspicious day," Yu Meiren exclaimed with a sigh.

"You've had a tough time. Our bones are practically broken from all the jostling on the way here. It must have been even harder for girls like you," Yang Xia said to Yu Meiren with great concern.

Yu Meiren shook her head indifferently. As long as they could get here safely, that was enough. They quickly prepared to set up camp outside the city.

"We've reached the vicinity of the border of the Kingdom of Zhuaqi. Let's spend the night here and travel for a few more hours at dawn to reach our destination."

"General Meng Yu, order the troops to set up camp and stay here tonight."

Yang Xia looked around and, seeing that it was already dark, decided to stay there for the time being.

"Your Majesty, as you command. I will immediately order the soldiers to set up camp."

After General Meng Yu responded, he quickly began preparations, and soon their tents were set up.

For these people who were used to marching and fighting, this was a piece of cake, and General Meng Yu quickly arranged everything.

"Your Majesty and Queen Consort must be tired from your journey, please rest early!"

Meng Yu greeted Yang Xia and Yu Meiren, then prepared to go out to keep watch.

"General Meng Yu, you've worked hard!"

Yang Xia nodded gratefully to Meng Yu, who was indeed his right-hand man, able to arrange everything perfectly.

"Your Majesty, these are all things I should do. Your Majesty should rest now!"

Meng Yu did not find it tiring and immediately went out to keep watch.

A short while later, General Meng Yu turned around and came in to report the situation.

"Your Majesty, we have discovered a woman nearby."

General Meng Yu looked puzzled and quickly came over to consult Yang Xia.

"How could there be a woman in such a desolate place? I'll go and see."

Yang Xia also found it strange, so he came out.

Yang Xia followed General Meng Yu to the outside of the tent, and Sun Zhengming also rushed over upon hearing the commotion.

They agreed to arrive at this place together, intending to rest well before entering the Kingdom of Jaguar after dawn, but they did not expect this situation to occur.

They went out and saw a ragged girl standing there, her eyes filled with terror.

"Little girl, don't be afraid. Where are you from? Are you from the Kingdom of Zhuaqi?" Yang Xia looked around at the desolate surroundings and felt that the girl must be from the Kingdom of Zhuaqi. He wanted to find out some information and then help her find her family.

But the girl in front of him remained silent, not uttering a single word no matter how Yang Xia asked her questions.

“Little girl, you must tell us where you come from before we can help you. If you really are from the Kingdom of Zhuaqi, we happen to be going there tomorrow, so we can take you there.” Yang Xia patiently communicated with the girl, hoping to be of help.

What struck him as odd was that the girl remained silent, staring blankly at them.

“Yang Xia, she looks terrified. She might have been bullied and ran away. She came looking for us when she saw us.” “Why don’t we take her in for now and go to Claw Qi Kingdom tomorrow to help her find her family?” Sun Zhengming suggested, as everyone felt the girl was indeed frightened, which explained her behavior.

“That makes sense. In that case, let’s leave her here for now. Maybe we can help her find her parents tomorrow.” Yang Xia agreed to let the girl stay overnight and help her find her family at dawn.

“Poor girl, come with me. Haven’t you eaten yet?” Seeing the girl’s pitiful state, Ni Qing couldn’t help but feel sorry for her and quickly led her into his tent.

Ni Qing took out a set of clean clothes and some fresh food, let the girl eat and drink her fill, and then changed into clean clothes.

"Such a beautiful girl, why are you in such a sorry state? What happened to you?" Ni Qing spoke very gently to the girl in front of her, trying to understand more, but the girl still hesitated and did not reveal many clues.

"Poor girl, I hope we can find your family tomorrow. You should rest early!" Ni Qing didn't think much of it and assumed that the girl had been severely frightened, which was why she looked like this.

After settling the girl in, Ni Qing let her stay and didn't ask any further questions.

This girl was none other than Princess Qingya of the Kingdom of Zhuaqi. Deceived by Su Qi, she was sent here to deliberately approach Yang Xia and then frame him.

After arriving here, Qingya discovered that these people didn't seem as ruthless as Su Qi had described; everyone seemed kind. However, Qingya believed that appearances could not tell much, and she only believed what Su Qi had said.

After considering these factors, Qingya made up her mind and prepared to frame Yang Xia according to Su Qi's arrangement.

Liu Zhixiu and Su Qi, watching closely from a distance, realized that Yang Xia and the others had indeed brought Qingya to their tent. Knowing their plan had succeeded, they exchanged a knowing smile of victory.

“Now the show is about to begin. Let’s go, we should go back and inform A’Za.” Su Qi smiled smugly, already imagining what would happen next.

“Yes, Yang Xia is doomed now. War between the Claw Kingdom and the Great Zhou Dynasty is imminent.” “As long as we two manage everything well, it will all go according to our plan.” Liu Zhixiu was also particularly pleased. They had finally succeeded in their conspiracy, and the long-awaited event was about to happen. The two hurriedly returned to the Claw Kingdom's palace, and upon their return, they started making a ruckus.

"Your Majesty, something terrible has happened! I can't find Princess Qingya anywhere! Does Your Majesty know where Princess Qingya is?" At this moment, Su Qi once again transformed into a master of acting, his talent for performance was truly remarkable. He appeared extremely flustered, which made A'Zheng completely believe him.

"What are you talking about? Isn't the princess in the palace? Where could she have gone?" A-Zhen was startled when he heard this and couldn't believe his ears. Princess Qingya had always been pampered by him since she was a child and had never encountered any unexpected situations.

“Your Majesty, I saw Princess Qingya before dinner, but she disappeared afterward. I can’t find her anywhere, so I came to report to Your Majesty.” Su Qi hurriedly explained everything.

"Search carefully! How could Princess Qingya not be found? Turn the palace upside down and find her!" A'Zheng usually doted on Princess Qingya the most, and now that he heard that she had gone missing, he was extremely flustered and didn't know what to do.

"Your Majesty, we have searched the entire palace, inside and out, but there is no trace of Princess Qingya. That's why we were frightened and came here to report to Your Majesty." Su Qi pretended to be flustered and told A'zeng about the situation, which made A'zeng even more worried.

"Immediately stop the preparations for the wedding chamber and start a nationwide search. We must find Princess Qingya!" Upon hearing this, A'Zheng was naturally extremely flustered. Since they couldn't find her in the palace, he was prepared to launch a nationwide search. It seemed that A'Zheng was determined to find his precious daughter, even if it meant digging three feet into the ground.

Seeing their panicked state, Su Qi felt even more smug. They couldn't find Princess Qingya even if they searched high and low, because she was already in Yang Xia's tent. Su Qi knew this better than anyone, and he was ready to watch the show.

A'Za frantically ordered all his men to be mobilized, searching the entire country for Princess Qingya. At this rate, he believed they would find their beloved daughter soon.

Unfortunately, after searching for most of the night, they still couldn't find Princess Qingya, leaving A'Ze completely dumbfounded.

"Where is my precious daughter? What should I do?" A-Zheng was in a state of utter panic and completely lost his composure. The sudden disappearance of his daughter, whom he had cherished since she was a baby, was something he could not accept and he was plunged into despair.

Su Qi had been observing coldly, and seeing the other party's pained expression, he knew the time was ripe. At this moment, A'Za was extremely agitated; if he knew his daughter had been kidnapped, he would be enraged. Driven by such emotions, even if Yang Xia had a hundred mouths, he wouldn't be able to explain himself clearly.

Su Qi was indeed incredibly cunning. He waited until the time was right before revealing Princess Qingya's whereabouts.

"Your Majesty, don't be too anxious. I heard that Yang Xia of the Great Zhou Dynasty has already set up camp outside the city. Why don't we go over there and inquire about the situation, and see if Princess Qingya has left the city?" Seeing that A'Ze was at a loss, Su Qi took the opportunity to make this suggestion.

"That's right, you're the quickest-witted one. Since there's no sign of Princess Qingya anywhere in the country, she might really have left the city." "Princess Qingya has always been very well-behaved. If she were to run off to play, she should have at least told us. What on earth is going on? I'm going crazy." A'Zheng couldn't hide his panic. After hearing Su Qi's suggestion, he thought it made perfect sense and immediately led a group of people towards the direction where Yang Xia and the others had set up camp.

At this moment, A'Za was extremely anxious and moved at lightning speed. The group of people came towards them amidst billowing dust.

General Meng Yu was startled. Seeing a group of people rushing towards him, he had no idea what was going on. Out of instinct, he quickly sent someone to find out what was happening.

"General Meng, the enemy forces are from the Kingdom of Zhuaqi. It seems that King A'zha of Zhuaqi has brought his men here. However, they look very anxious. I wonder what happened." His subordinates hurriedly reported this situation to General Meng Yu, and they also showed some surprise.

The Kingdom of Clawqi proactively sent an invitation to the Great Zhou Dynasty, so logically they wouldn't consider them a hostile force. So why did they come here? Were they here to personally welcome Yang Xia?
General Meng Yu was completely confused about the situation and could only rush to report to Yang Xia.

"Your Majesty, the King of Aza of the Claw Kingdom has arrived with a troop of men. What are they planning to do?" General Meng Yu hurriedly voiced his doubts.

"Could it be that he came to greet us personally? That's too kind of him. Let me go out and see." Yang Xia didn't think much of it and quickly went out of the tent to greet him.

In his view, since the Kingdom of Zhuaqi had taken the initiative to show goodwill, their Great Zhou Dynasty should naturally also act in a friendly manner so that the two sides could get along well.

But after Yang Xia stepped out of the tent, he realized that the atmosphere on the other side seemed a bit off. The king of the Clawed Kingdom, A'Zan, appeared extremely flustered, as if he hadn't come to greet him but rather that an emergency had occurred.

Yang Xia has always been observant and is quite certain about this.

"Your Majesty, you've come in such a hurry, is there something urgent?"...

Seeing the other person's extremely flustered appearance, Yang Xia took the initiative to greet him.

"Yang Xia, my Princess Qingya has suddenly disappeared. I came here to find out what happened and ask if you have seen my Princess Qingya."

A'Za from the Kingdom of Claw quickly inquired about the situation from Yang Xia. At this moment, he was extremely flustered and eager to know Qingya's whereabouts.

Before Yang Xia could speak, Princess Qingya rushed out of Yang Xia's tent and threw herself into her father A'zha's arms.

This scene stunned everyone present. Whether it was A'Za or Yang Xia, they were all dumbfounded and had no idea what had happened.

This scene was so dramatic that A-Za was frantic, never expecting that his daughter would actually appear here.

As for Yang Xia, he was even more confused. The girl, who hadn't said a word before, suddenly made such a move, leaving them all bewildered.

“Father, I thought I would never see you again. Yang Xia’s men kidnapped me and brought me here. They even threatened to take me back to the Great Zhou Dynasty.”

"If my father had arrived any later, my father and I might never have seen each other again in this lifetime."

Princess Qingya hugged her father and tearfully recounted the situation, leaving Yang Xia completely stunned.

When A-Zhao saw the wounds on his daughter's body and heard what she had to say, he was immediately filled with anger.

Of course, all the scars on Princess Qingya's body were made up and were faked; they were not real scars at all.

Yang Xia and Yu Meiren never dreamed that the girl they kindly took in was actually Princess Qingya of the Claw Kingdom, and that she would suddenly turn on them.

Yu Meiren clearly found her a clean set of clothes to change into, but somehow the girl had tampered with them, tearing the clothes to shreds again and even making them look like they were covered in wounds.

In his rage, A'Za naturally didn't bother to examine his daughter's injuries. Instead, he glared angrily at Yang Xia, his eyes seemingly spitting blood.

"King Aza, this must be a misunderstanding. How could we possibly kidnap Princess Qingya? We simply discovered her here by chance and took her in temporarily." (End of Chapter)
