Soldier C and Soldier D searched in the cypress forest for about a moment, but still could not find Meng Xiang.

The two soldiers were whispering to each other, and Xiao Bing asked, "Could it be that Meng Xiang was taken away by a wolf?"

"No way!" Xiao Ding shook his head. "Even if it was taken away by a wolf, there would be some noise. Just now I seemed to hear a 'Yo~~~' and the person disappeared."

"Could it be possible that... he was kidnapped?!"

Xiao Bing is getting a little closer to the truth.

"No way?!" Xiao Ding shook his head again, "Who else could be here except the people from our garrison? It can't be that someone from the city came out and kidnapped Meng Xiang? It's useless to kidnap him..."

Xiao Bing nodded, "That's true."

Those who were almost close to the truth were taken away from it.

The two men couldn't figure out where Meng Xiang had gone, and they didn't dare to return to the camp.

You know, what they lost was not a kitten or a puppy, but a prime minister!

If Commander Qiu knew about this, he would definitely skin them alive!

The two soldiers squatted in the woods in great distress, wondering how they should lie when they returned... no, how to explain themselves so as not to be killed on the spot by Qiu Sheng.

But after thinking for a long time, the two of them couldn't come up with any good excuse.

Sudden.

There were a few soft calls coming from not far away.

The two soldiers quickly hid behind a tree and listened.

"Prime Minister~~~~~ Yi Xiang~~~~~ where are you~~~~~"

The sound was so soft and gentle that it floated to the ears of the two soldiers.

Bing and Ding looked at each other for a moment, and asked in a low voice at the same time, "Is Lord Yi missing?!"

No way?

Such a coincidence? !

Just now, A and B helped Yi Xiang to pee, and now they are looking for someone...

Xiao Ding called out tentatively: "Is that Xiao Jia~~~~~~"

The sound was also light and erratic.

Sure enough, after a while, a voice came from the other end, "Who are you~~~~~~"

"I'm Xiao Ding~~~~~"

"Oh~~~~Xiao Ding~~~~~What are you doing~~~~~"

"I'm looking for Meng Xiang~~~~~What are you doing~~~~"

"I'm looking for Yixiang~~~~~~What a coincidence~~~~~~~"

"Yes~~Ah! Why did you hit me!!" Xiao Ding yelled angrily at Xiao Bing behind him.

Xiao Bing said angrily, "Stop chatting! Go over and ask what's going on. The two prime ministers are missing. I'm afraid something might have happened!!"

"That's right." Xiao Ding was convinced at once.

But before the two men could grope their way out, A and B groped their way back.

The four of them met and chattered about this and that...and they discovered that the two prime ministers had been pretending to be drunk before.

Then, after arriving at the dense forest, he pretended to need to pee or poop and slipped away.

"It's over." Xiao Jia patted his leg.

"What should I do?" Xiao Yi stamped his feet.

"How about we run away too?!" Xiao Bing suggested.

"Where are you running?!" Xiao Ding asked hurriedly.

Xiaojia thought for a moment and said, "Anshanwei definitely can't go back. Why don't we each go back to our own homes and look for our own mothers?"

"Get lost!" Xiao Yi disagreed, "If we run away, we'll be deserters. Going back will only cause trouble for my parents, brother and sister-in-law. I won't go back."

"How about this," Xiao Bing suddenly thought, "Why don't you come with me to Zhongzhou to seek refuge with my uncle? Zhongzhou is a great distance away from Liaozhou, and the four of us aren't important people, so no one will chase us there."

"What if, I mean what if, we get caught, then won't your uncle be in trouble too?" Xiao Ding thought it through.

Xiao Bing nodded and said, "Yes, that's why I have to go. My uncle borrowed fifty taels of silver from my family and never paid it back. When I was a child, he always beat my mother. He married an aunt who was a female demon and almost sold my mother to a brothel.

So if we implicate him, it won't be unfair to him."

When the other three heard this, they immediately nodded and agreed to go to Zhongzhou.

If I get caught and even implicate Xiao Bing's uncle, it would be considered a good deed.

So the four of them hit it off and decided to go...and they left.

Gone...

When Minister Wei went to Yi Xiang's tent again, what he saw was an empty tent.

"People?!"

Yi Xiang, who felt his hair stand on end, stood at the door of the tent and shouted, "Where are all the dead people? Where are the guards?!"

No one answered.

Minister Wei, who was momentarily confused, held his head and ran around the tent several times, but still could not find the two prime ministers.

However, such a big commotion eventually attracted Qiu Sheng.

He yelled and asked where the tent keeper had gone?!

But no one knows.

"Search!! Search them all!" Qiu Sheng roared at his men out of control.

Fortunately, Minister Wei still retained some rationality.

He stopped Qiu Sheng, "Commander Qiu~!! It's important! Regarding finding someone... send a small team to look for him first.

The two prime ministers were only scholars, and they didn’t ride horses when they left, so they couldn’t run far.”

Qiu Sheng had calmed down a bit by now. He gritted his teeth and nodded, then told the people around him, "Find a team of scouts to go out and look for them. I'm afraid that Prime Minister Meng and Prime Minister Yi had already communicated with the Crown Prince of Kang when they met. Look in the direction of the Liaocheng city gate, go quickly!"

The person below responded with a "yes" and left in a hurry.

"Commander Qiu," Minister Wei suddenly felt very uneasy, "Should we tell the people in Prince Qi's Palace about this?"

Qiu Sheng frowned and thought for a long time, "Of course we have to tell him, but let's wait until the scout comes back. The people from Prince Qi's Mansion are on their way, and they will probably arrive at the same time as the scout, so we don't need to go and tell them specifically."

"Okay then." Minister Wei had no idea in his mind and could only listen to Qiu Sheng. "Since Commander Qiu said so, we will do as you say."

Qiu Sheng glanced at Wei Shangshu and thought to himself, you old fox are really good at shirking responsibility~~~

But he didn't say much.

Minister Wei...haha, let him plan for a few more days.

Anyway, this guy won't live long.

Return it to the Prime Minister.

Ha ha.

The King of Qi had already promised his father-in-law that in the future, there would only be one Prime Minister in the Great Rong Dynasty! !

And he, Qiu Sheng, will also become the General of Nanling, commanding an army of 200,000.

Everything depends on today!

Thinking of his lofty ambitions, Qiu Sheng, who had a frown on his face, suddenly revealed a strange smile at the corner of his mouth.

He called his deputy, "Go and check if the 20,000 soldiers from the garrison are approaching. The most important things are the two siege cannons and gunpowder. You must keep an eye on them.

Just now, the Prince of Qi said that their 10,000 private soldiers have been assembled and counted, and we must hurry up as it is almost noon."

"Yes!" the deputy responded, took a horse from the guard, mounted the horse and left.

Minister Wei asked curiously: "Commander Qiu, are we only going to attack the north gate? What about the south gate? We can't attack it or what..."

"To get to the South Gate, you have to go around the city." Commander Qiu also mounted his warhorse and said condescendingly: "Minister Wei, do you know why Liaocheng is called Liaocheng?"

"I don't know about that." Minister Wei answered honestly.

Commander Qiu pulled the reins and said calmly, "Behind this forest, there is a mountain. Although it is only a hundred or eighty feet high, it is very wide and it is very easy to get lost.

Therefore, if you want to take a detour from north to south without passing through Liaocheng, it will take an extra day.

Moreover, we also brought siege cannons, which made marching even more inconvenient.

So, Minister Wei, do you understand why I chose to attack the north gate?"

After saying this, Commander Qiu rode away on his horse without waiting for Minister Wei to speak.

Minister Wei asked the guard assigned to him, "So what does this have to do with the name of Liaocheng?!"

The guard scratched his head and answered innocently, "I don't know~~~~"

".........ill!"

Minister Wei spat softly at Commander Qiu's receding back.

.............

Liaocheng North Tower.

Prime Minister Meng, who was carried back by Li Xiucai, had already told Ji Chongning and others all about the plans of King Qi and Minister Cheng.

"The King of Qi and his men even want to kill me. Tell me, is he too bold?!" Meng Xiang asked angrily, while everyone on the city wall had solemn expressions on their faces.

Song Ke's eyebrows moved slightly, and he replied calmly: "The King of Qi dared to kill the king and his father, so what's the big deal about killing a prime minister?"

"......That being said, that's not how it should be said......Who are you?" Meng Xiang looked at Song Ke and muttered.

But before Song Ke could answer, someone shouted, "Hey! Song Ke, your mother asked me to bring you some midnight snack!"

Everyone turned their heads and looked behind them.

I saw.......

Chen Dongyue came over carrying two wooden barrels.

The crowd, who already felt something was wrong, took two steps back.

Only Meng Xiang, who had no idea, asked, "What's the midnight snack?"

He had just vomited out everything he had eaten and drunk, and now he was hungry.

Although Chen Dongyue didn't know Meng Xiang, she was also a kind-hearted person.

Especially now.

She enthusiastically placed the two wooden barrels in front of Meng Xiang and said, "This is the pumpkin porridge cooked by my mother-in-law. Would you like to have some? It's delicious."

"Yo~~ Not bad, not bad. Give it some." Meng Lian nodded repeatedly.

The people behind him retreated one after another.

Chen Dongyue waved at them, "Come here, sir~~~~Don't run, sir~~~~"

The crowd ran further away.
