Chapter 454 We’re not leaving(1/2)
Jalhun City, the commanding officer's office.
Cao Nai, Zhang Yi, Kuang Ye and other big shots in the court were all impatient and surrounded Qiqi Ke as if they were interrogating prisoners.
"Where did the emperor go?"
Qiqi Ke was also helpless: "Masters, please don't get angry, I really don't know!"
Cao Nai and Zhang Yi looked at each other and nodded at the same time, seeming to have made some kind of decision.
Qiqi Ke suddenly became nervous and said, "I swear, I'm looking for it too..."
"If you don't hand over the emperor today, we won't leave!"
"Yes, you have to take care of the food!"
Before Qi Qiqi could finish speaking, Cao Nai and Zhang Yi suddenly started acting up, as if they were trying to deprive you of their wealth.
Seeing this, Kuang Ye then said: "That's right, you have to think clearly, there are hundreds of people in our line, and eating horse chews is not a small sum!"
The emperor suddenly left without saying goodbye, and no one could chase him away.
Everyone rushed over anxiously, but in vain. Now that Qiqi Ke said he didn't know, who would believe it?
Everyone was certain that it was Qiqi Ke who hid the emperor.
In short, since we are here, we will not leave.
See how long you can hold on!
Qi Qiqi advised earnestly: "My lords, it's better to send people out to look for the emperor. I'm looking for him too!"
Cao Nai glanced at her contemptuously and thought to himself, are you lying?
The same goes for Zhang Yi, with a look of dependence on your family.
Kuang Ye went even further and went straight to the ground and said, "No, no, no, I can't walk anymore. I asked you, do you have anything to eat? We old bones have been traveling all day and we are almost starving to death!"
Qiqi Ke had no choice but to say: "I have already ordered people to prepare meals. Mr. Kuang, please get up quickly. The ground is cold."
However, no matter how she tried to persuade her, everyone ignored her.
Seeing this, Qi Qike had no choice but to let it go and turned around to give orders. All the officials in Mobei Guard dropped what they were doing and went to look for the emperor!
The grassland was in chaos, with officers and soldiers everywhere, searching almost from house to house.
Cao Nai and others relied on Mobei Guards to command the Yamen, and had not slept a wink for several days and nights.
They have now concluded that the emperor is hiding in Mobei Guard, so let's see who can consume him more!
Why wasn't Chi Chike anxious? The emperor had indeed made an appointment to meet with him, but he didn't show up at the agreed time.
There is no one in the capital now, and the Mobei Guard is nowhere to be seen. Where has the emperor gone?
Just don’t have any surprises...
Thinking of this, she immediately stood up, called two followers, and hurried out.
"where you go?"
Cao Nai immediately jumped up and stopped in front of Qiqike.
However, his old arms and legs were so excited that he felt his legs were sore and numb. He lost control and even knelt down.
Qiqi Ke, with quick eyesight and quick hands, supported him and said, "I want to go somewhere!"
Cao Nai reluctantly stood still and asked, "Where are you going?"
"Helin Town!"
"Where is Helin Town...?"
Qiqike shook his head and said, "It's a market town located fifty miles east of Orkhon City."
Cao Nai's eyes lit up and asked: "The emperor is hiding in Helin Town?"
"No!"
Qiqi Ke waved his hand and explained: "I just doubt..."
Cao Nai continued to ask: "What do you suspect?"
In desperation, Qiqi Ke had no choice but to express his inference.
"Three days ago, Helin Town reported that local herdsmen defeated a group of horse thieves. I'm going to ask about the situation!"
Cao Nai asked in confusion: "What does this have to do with the emperor's whereabouts?"
Qiqi Ke said seriously: "The Emperor did say that he would come to Mobei, but I have been waiting these days, but there has been no movement. Could there be... any accident?"
Cao Nai was horrified when he heard this and said, "Don't be alarmist. Isn't it possible that the emperor has been hidden by you?"
Qiqi Ke said hurriedly: "I really don't, Mr. Cao, you have to believe me!"
Cao Nai looked at her sideways and said, "I don't believe it!"
"never mind!"
Qi Qike shook his head in anger, it's already this time, believe it or not!
"I'm going to Helin Town to interrogate the horse thieves who were arrested in the first trial. You just wait here, and you will have enough food and accommodation!"
After speaking, she ignored the ministers and left in a hurry with her entourage.
Cao Nai looked at Zhang Yi, Zhang Yi looked at Kuang Ye, and Kuang Ye turned to look at Cao Nai.
The three of them were silent for a long time, then Kuang Ye said, "Could it be that... the emperor is really not here?"
Zhang Yi frowned and said: "The emperor is leaving the palace incognito, and there are not many people with him. Don't really encounter horse thieves!"
Cao Nai hurriedly said: "It's not an option to wait here, let's go and have a look together!"
"Mr. Cao, please be patient and don't be impatient!"
Zhang Yi suddenly stopped him and said, "Isn't it to lure the tiger away from the mountain?"
The three of them are all old foxes, so they naturally thought of this.
If the emperor is really hiding in Mobei Guard, it is difficult for the three people to show up here.
As long as the three of them leave, they will be able to escape immediately, and they will not be found again!
Cao Nai thought for a long time and then said: "Let's do this. Kuang Shangshu and I will stay here while you go to Helin Town!"
This decision was mainly based on the fact that among the three, only Zhang Yi was stronger and could withstand the torment.
Zhang Yi naturally understood and hugged the two of them, then brought some followers and followed Qiqi Ke out of the city.
Fifty miles is not a long journey on a flat plain in the desert. It only takes more than an hour to get there by galloping on horseback.
Poor Zhang Yi's body, how had he ever suffered like this?
Finally arriving at Helin Town, I felt like I was about to fall apart.
Qiqi Ke asked with concern: "Master Zhang, are you okay?"
Zhang Yi gasped, waved his hands repeatedly, and said: "I'm not...it's okay, business matters!"
Qiqi Ke nodded and led people into the inspection department.
Xu Guangliang was taking a nap when he learned that the commander was coming. He had no clothes or shoes on, so he hurried out to greet him.
Qiqi Ke got straight to the point and asked, "Did we capture a group of horse thieves three days ago?"
Xu Guangliang nodded quickly: "Return to the commander, sir, this is indeed the case!"
"After so long, why haven't you sent him to the city yet?"
"this……"
Xu Guangliang looked hesitant and said: "The interrogation has not been completed yet."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Before Yuan Bin left, he specifically told no one that the Jin Yiwei came to interrogate the prisoner. Even in front of his own superiors, he did not dare to reveal even a word. He could only
Find a reason to excuse yourself.
Qiqi Ke raised his eyebrows and asked, "They are just a group of horse thieves, what's the point of interrogating them?"
Xu Guangliang rolled his eyes and said: "Return to the commander, these horse thieves are Chaka's people!"
Chaka was originally the commander of a thousand men under Boyan, and the imperial court offered a reward of 500 taels for the "giant bandit". Whoever caught him now should naturally examine him carefully. Is there anything wrong with him?
After hearing this, Qiqi Ke nodded and asked, "Did you find anything in the trial?"
When Xu Guangliang saw this, he was secretly relieved. It seemed that this reason had passed.
"Back to your lord, these horse thieves are very cunning. The subordinates were worried that they might have reservations, so they interrogated them repeatedly, but... gained very little..."
It means that it has not been tried, but I still want to be tried. This argument is reasonable, right?
Qiqi Ke waved his hand and said: "Bring me here, I have something to ask!"
Xu Guangliang was startled and said quickly: "Your Majesty, the commander is just a few horse thieves, how can I bother you..."
Qiqi Ke shouted softly: "Go quickly!"
