Chapter 1657: Day and Night Travel
s nothing of laws or propriety, might just take matters into her own hands."For someone like Liu Lan who bullies the weak and fears the strong, Kang'er's cruel look and tone were enough to frighten he...Xiliang Kingdom's Han Yun stood there with a sullen face, his back straight and unyielding in the thicket of trees. Behind him stood two subordinates of the Qingyun Pavilion.
Three people had been silent for an unknown amount of time, the atmosphere heavy with tension.
Moments later, Han Yun's face darkened. He suddenly cursed, as if driven to rage, and lashed out with a palm strike that instantly smashed a hole into the trunk of the tree before him. This demonstrated the depth of his internal energy.
The two men standing behind him looked at each other, their faces also extremely grim. They could understand where their lord's anger came from.
Even they felt stifled inside, let alone their head.
They have been searching for the whereabouts of King Beijang these days. After much effort, they finally tracked him down to Xiliang Kingdom based on clues, especially a crucial living being they found a few days ago.
That was the warhorse of King Beijiang, reportedly named "Big Red" by Queen Beijiang.
That day, the Northern Frontier King went into the mountains to keep an appointment. When he rescued the Crown Prince, it was riding his warhorse Dàhóng.
That day, he left Dahong at the foot of the mountain and went up himself, but unexpectedly, he was outwitted by Bai Feng and Yun Rui on Beijang Mountain, causing a major problem.
After King Bei Jiang fell off the cliff, the people from Qingyun Pavilion did want to find his warhorse, Dahong, but they had never found any clues.
They also thought that the big red might have gotten into trouble or been stolen and taken for themselves.
But unexpectedly, a few days ago, their lord saw Dahuang appearing within the borders of Xiliang.
After a day and night of searching, they finally found traces of Big Red. But when they went to look for it, Big Red mysteriously disappeared again.
And villagers who saw the big red said that a man rode away on it at the time.
Their master said that there are very few people in this world who can conquer the warhorse, King of the Northern Frontier.
There are only two possibilities for Dahong to willingly submit. First, the person riding Dahong is the King of Beijang himself. Second, there exists someone in this world who can truly conquer Dahong within a short period of time.
They all felt the second possibility was less likely, so their lord's anger at this moment stemmed from realizing he had been too slow to go see them.
Their master had always believed that if he could just find that place, he might also find the King of Beijang.
Their master suspected the man who left riding a big red horse was the King of Beijiang, but on the other hand, he also thought it was unlikely.
After all, if the King of Beijiang was still alive and well, even able to ride his big red horse with ease, he shouldn't be hiding like this, making it impossible for them to find him.
Given the nature of King Beijiang, if he were truly free and able to move about as he pleased, why would he be hiding from them
Therefore, all speculation became extremely uncertain.
Over this period of time, the Qingyun Pavilion had been investigating relentlessly. After so long, they finally managed to get a lead.
Each lead they found would be interrupted by something else, causing the trail to go cold and leaving them no closer to finding the whereabouts of King Beijiang. They couldn't even confirm if he was still alive.
Their master is now so angry because he feels useless and incapable of explaining to the Northern Border Princess why it has taken so long to find the whereabouts of the Northern Border King. He truly feels incompetent.
And according to the days, the North Frontier Princess in the capital should have given birth by now.
I wonder how she is doing in the capital now. I haven't received any news from King Beijiang in all these days. Will she start to suspect something
Their master was becoming increasingly angry because of these worries. He felt powerless to do anything about them.
The two of them stared at their master's back for a long time, and finally couldn't help but step forward. One of them cupped his hands and said: "Master, those villagers all say that the man rode north on horseback. The subordinate has ordered someone to pursue him, and news will surely return soon. Master, there is no need to worry so much."
Han Yun had now calmed down. He took a deep breath and turned to face his two subordinates, his sharp gaze fixed on them as he spoke in a low, serious voice, "What's the situation in the capital Why haven't we heard from the Princess yet"
At this time, Mo Junyi should have arrived in the capital long ago.
He didn't just try his best to find Mo Yunjing, he also had to keep an eye on the situation in the capital. After all, it had been some time since Mo Yunjin sent any news back to the capital. Given what he knew about An Xuetang, she would definitely start to suspect something.
I just don't know if she, after becoming suspicious, will be alright
And at this time, she should have given birth to the child in her womb. Whether it is a boy or a girl, and whether it is healthy
Mo Yunjing had promised her he would go back before she gave birth. Now he has broken his promise. Will she worry too much because of Mo Yunjing's broken promise, leading to health problems
Too many things were worrying him, making Han Yun feel suffocated.
As the master of Qingyun Pavilion, he had never felt so defeated. All these days, he had only been trying to find out someone's whereabouts. It had taken him more than half a month, and he still hadn't been able to find them.
The emotions that had already subsided surged up again at this moment. Han Yunqi couldn't help but feel remorse for letting Mo Yunjing go up the mountain alone.
If he hadn't sent Mo Yunjing up alone at the time, things probably wouldn't have turned out like this.
Thinking this way, he smashed his right hand against the tree beside him once more. After two bouts of this, the tree finally slowly fell down.
Two subordinates looked at his reddening hands, and the two quickly bowed their heads in unison, “Please calm down, Master.”
Han Yun fell silent for a moment, then said in a deep voice, “Go and investigate again. No matter what means you use, I want to know everything in the capital as soon as possible. How is the princess of Beijang now I need to know her exact situation as soon as possible.” The two subordinates did not dare to delay and replied hurriedly, "Yes."
then turned and hurried away.
After both of his men left, Han Yun turned his face north with a gloomy expression. After regaining his composure, he whistled and summoned his horse, quickly mounting it and galloping away.
Meanwhile, An Xuetang and Feng Ming were hurrying on their journey without stopping.
Fortunately, due to Yun Si's careful arrangements, this carriage ride was quite comfortable despite being on the road. Although they were traveling, there were many soft cushions in the carriage, and An Xue Tang didn't feel bumpy at all.
After leaving the capital, they traveled day and night without stopping. In just five days, they had already changed seven horses. If they hadn't changed horses in time, all seven horses would have run to exhaustion.
Since leaving the capital, they had never stayed at an inn for a proper night's rest.
Feng Ming had been keeping her company in the train carriage these past few days. Whenever he saw that she wasn't resting well, he would order her to close her eyes and take a nap.
If she refused to sleep, Feng Ming would directly use his skills to press on her acupoints, forcing her to sleep.
Seeing that tomorrow they would be entering the territory of Youlan City, Feng Ming was determined to let her have a good rest tonight.ang didn't need to guess to know that he didn't have much feeling for his nominal daughter at all.Or perhaps, that man's icy eyes softened only when he looked upon his sleeping beauty.
