When Xia Xiaoxian burst into tears, Xia Yu was the first to be annoyed.

He looked at Shen Yuyao in bewilderment. He didn't hit her, so why did Xia Xiaoxian cry like this?

They were clearly playing "Eagle Catches Chicken" and laughing just now.

The next second, she cried so loudly.

When Shen Yuyao first heard Xia Xiaoxian crying, she felt so distressed that she wanted to cry. Later, when she heard Xia Xiaoxian's inner thoughts, Shen Yuyao was a little amused and helpless for a moment.

Even the way she looked at Xia Yu was a little guilty.

At this time, Shen Yuyao also wanted to go forward and persuade Xia Xiaoxian to stop crying!

Just because of Xia Xiaoxian's crying, it was truly enough to shock the world and make the gods and ghosts weep!

The sun was shining brightly, but as soon as she cried, the sky suddenly became overcast, and there were lightning and thunder, and heavy rain began to fall.

Shen Yuyao stood in the rain and finally laughed out loud.

Xia Yu looked at the mother and daughter who looked like crazy and actually laughed out loud.

Even the monk Daoyan, who had been calm all along, couldn't help but smile and shouted, "Amitabha."

In the heavy rain, everyone who suddenly woke up began to cheer.

Haozhou City had suffered from drought for a long time, and now it has rained heavily.

You came just in time!

......

It rained heavily for the entire night.

Xia Xiaoxian's crying was really penetrating.

So much so that everyone in the Duke's Mansion heard it.

Everyone knew that the little princess was safe and sound, but she cried so miserably!

"Listen..."

"Now you know how miserable it is to be caught by bad guys. Don't run around anymore in the future, okay?"

The ladies in every mansion across the country educate their children in this way.

Don't run around!

On the second day, the streets and alleys of Haozhou City were full of discussions.

"Hey, do you know? A few days ago, the little princess who came back to visit her parents was actually abducted by human traffickers."

"Yes, I heard it was the little princess. She ran around and was captured by thieves."

"That's not right. Why did I hear that the gang of thieves were so rampant that they ran to the Duke's Mansion to capture the little princess?"

"Yes, the neighbors of the Duke's Mansion heard it. When the little princess was arrested, she cried loudly in panic. Alas, I don't know why the Duke's Mansion is so vulnerable."

"What you said is wrong. It was clearly the young princess who was wise and brave. She led a group of child soldiers and wiped out the gang of human traffickers."

"Tsk... The little princess is only a year old, and she's leading troops? And she's suppressing the enemy? By crying loudly? No one will believe it no matter who you tell her!"

"They really did it by wailing so loudly that even the city of Haozhou, which had suffered from drought for a long time, was made to experience a torrential downpour!"

"Who would believe you? Isn't that a fairy tale?"

"In our Haozhou City, human traffickers are too rampant now, which has angered the current emperor. He has issued three imperial edicts to arrest all human traffickers in Haozhou City."

"Isn't this a good thing? They even dare to abduct and sell the emperor's children. They really should be punished!"

"Hush, it is said that this was started by a certain prince who was looking for young boys and girls in order to achieve immortality..."

"Don't say that casually, be careful..."

"The gang of thieves who kidnapped the little princess were guilty of a terrible crime. Their bodies were covered in blood and flesh. After being caught, none of them survived for more than an hour."

"The parents of the more than 20 children who were rescued are now in the government office, signing a joint letter to thank the little princess. It is said that they will write a letter to the court to express their gratitude to the little princess!"

"I think they should actually thank Lord Zhu, the garrison commander of Haozhou."

"Why should we thank Master Zhu?"

"Someone in my family works for the government. He is said to be the only legitimate son of Lord Zhu. I risked my life as bait and worked with Lord Zhu to catch the gang of thieves from the mountain temple!"

"I also heard that the legitimate son of Lord Zhu is named Zhu Aneng. He has been smart and clever since he was young and has quite some talent."

"That day, Zhu Aneng used himself as bait. After being captured by the thieves, he spread will-o'-the-wisp fire along the way. The thieves did not notice it during the day, but at night the will-o'-the-wisp fire became a guiding light."

"The government tracked them all the way to the mountain temple and surrounded it. The young master from the Duke's family was the first to rush into the temple. Guess what those soldiers saw?"

"what did you see?"

"When the soldiers rushed into the mountain temple, they saw that the thieves had been subdued by a group of children. One was bitten to death on the spot, and the other two did not survive for more than an hour."

"This must be a group of heavenly soldiers. How can a child of a few years old subdue several burly men?"

For a time, the news spread from the streets and alleys of Haozhou City to the taverns in the capital, and finally, the entire Great Xia Dynasty was filled with descriptions of this group of child soldiers. Later, the news became more and more bizarre.

Even the brothels and teahouses made up songs and plays about what happened that day and performed them every day.

The common people of the Great Xia Dynasty all remembered three names: Zhang Yu, Zhu Aneng, and Qiu Xiaofu.

The only name missing was Xia Xiaoxian.

Whenever Xia Xiaoxian thought about this, she would feel a little depressed.

At this time, Xia Xiaoxian was sitting in a teahouse in Haozhou City with Shen Yuyao and Xia Yu, listening to storytelling.

The storyteller was talking about the mountain god temple.

[The three guards of Yanjing, it turns out that they are already famous in Daxia at this time. ]

[It is a pity that no one knows that it was the Prince of Lu who hired human traffickers to buy young boys and girls.]

[Prince Lu is the culprit! ]

[And that bad woman, Chunniang! She has not been brought to justice yet. I am so angry. ]

[She was the one who stripped Xiaoxian's clothes off, and also stole Xiaoxian's gold lock.]

Chun Niang?

Shen Yuyao raised her eyebrows slightly. This was the second time that Xiao Xianbao mentioned this person.

Shen Yuyao also secretly asked the Duke to ask someone to investigate, but no information about this woman was found.

And Prince Lu, Shen Yuyao raised her hand and gently rubbed her brow.

The biological mother of Prince Lu was Concubine Ning, who was once deeply favored by the emperor, but later died in the deep palace for no apparent reason.

The death of Concubine Ning had never been announced by the Emperor, so the matter seemed extremely strange and bizarre. Rumors arose in the palace, saying all sorts of things!

Shen Yuyao remembered that Ling Xiangxiang was in the palace at that time, investigating the case of Concubine Ning's death.

Although Shen Yuyao is now secretly the commander of the Black Dragon Guard, he is actually an imperial envoy.

But since it concerns Prince Lu, Shen Yuyao does not dare to jump to conclusion, because there are currently no substantial clues to incriminate Prince Lu.

Shen Yuyao originally wanted to use the power of the Black Dragon Guard to thoroughly investigate the matter, but she was worried that some of the Black Dragon Guards in Haozhou City might be implicated with Prince Lu, which would alert the enemy.

After thinking about it, Shen Yuyao decided to discuss the case with Xia Yu and Dao Yan.

Shen Yuyao was just about to mention this to Xia Yu, but when she looked up, she saw the guards from the Duke's Mansion walking into the teahouse.

He bowed and said to Xia Yu and Shen Yuyao: "Your Highness, Princess. The Duke asks you two to return home. The imperial edict has arrived from the palace!"
