275 Kidnapping
“The emperor is wise! Congratulations, Princess Lotus!”
“Congratulations on the marriage alliance between Great Yun and Black City!”
Ning Yue was completely stunned. What was going on? This was too dramatic.
A minute ago, the Empress had ordered the Imperial Guards to be mobilized. It was fine if the emperor stopped them, but he suddenly said that he wanted to make Princess Lotus his concubine!
This turn of events was too strange! What was the emperor up to?
Princess Lotus’s expression was very bad. Clearly, she did not expect such a situation.
She was about to refuse when her brother suddenly thanked the Emperor of Great Yun.
What kind of joke was this? Marry her to the Emperor of Great Yun?
Her target was the Crown Prince Consort of Great Yun! How did she become the concubine of this soon-to-be abdicated emperor?!
This was simply a farce!
This opening ceremony ended in this farce.
This opening ceremony ended in this farce.
However, she couldn’t refuse. To put it nicely, she was a princess, but in fact, she was her father’s pawn!
If a chess piece could not play her role, she would soon become an abandoned chess piece.
At this moment, Jiang Ying left with the prince of the Black City Kingdom first.
He had just left the house when he saw Ning Yue. He asked her to go home first.
“I might come back later tonight. You don’t have to wait for me,” Jiang Ying said.
“Okay,” Ning Yue agreed, but she still had things to do.
She had a place to go because she had received a message from the prince of the Black City Kingdom before the banquet ended.
Ning Yue got into the carriage. She asked Baili to hire a carriage and sat down. Baili drove the carriage, and there were a few guards outside.
Ning Yue did not interfere too much with the guards. These guards should have been sent by Yuan Hui.
Ning Yue was sitting in the carriage wondering why the prince of the Black City Kingdom was looking for her when the carriage suddenly stopped.
Due to inertia, Ning Yue was almost thrown out of the carriage.
After a long while, Ning Yue finally stabilized herself. She lifted the curtain and asked Baili, “What happened?”
Baili looked coldly at the man in black in front of him. His hand had already reached for his sword. “Princess, someone is blocking the way.”
When Ning Yue heard this, she decisively jumped out of the carriage.
After a few seconds, Ning Yue had a preliminary judgment of this group of men in black.
This group hadn’t killed anyone directly. Presumably they weren’t after her life. They might have been after her to kidnap her.
Ning Yue boldly guessed that although this group of people wanted to kidnap her, they did not want to hurt her. It seemed that they had a favor to ask of her.
“Heroes, are you kidnapping me for money or lust?” Ning Yue asked from the side.
When Baili heard this, he staggered and almost fell.
The princess was actually asking him if they were kidnapping her for money or lust?
Which woman could be so calm in the face of robbers? It was fine if she was calm, but she could even ask the other party such a question. Their princess was definitely the first.
When the men in black heard this, they sighed with emotion like Baili. This woman was too bold!
“I’m looking for you. Come with us,” a man in black said.
“It’s not that I can’t go with you, but why do you want me to go with you?” Ning Yue asked.
She had already confirmed her judgment in her heart. At the same time, she was guessing how this group had found her.
“Princess, you go first. We’ll cover you,” Baili said quickly, seeing what the group was thinking.
“Alright, do as you see fit!” With that, Ning Yue turned around and ran.
The man in black was not in a hurry. He did not chase after Ning Yue but dealt with Baili.
At this moment, Jiang Ying had already returned home. However, to his surprise, Ning Yue was not back yet!
What was going on? He was a little flustered. Even if she was delayed by something on the way, she shouldn’t be so late.
Could something have happened to her?
Jiang was extremely anxious. He only had a few secret guards by his side. The other secret guards had been sent to protect Ning Yue.
At this moment, Baili returned. He looked very pale, and Jiang Ying immediately understood what was going on.
“Let’s go to the Nine Gates Military Governor’s Residence!” Jiang Ying made a prompt decision.
Since she had disappeared, he naturally had to look for the Nine Gates Military Governor’s Residence, which was in charge of managing the safety of the capital. He had to be responsible for this!
Ma Ling repeatedly promised Jiang Ying that he would find her. Jiang Ying snorted. “If anything happens to Yueyue in the capital, I want the entire Nine Gate Military Governor’s Residence to die with you!”
