Not long after Xiao Yunchen left, Bai Yuxian and Ye Fuxun also came. Bai Yuxian was very worried when he heard that Xiao Yunchen only took a hundred people deep into the tiger's den.
So another two hundred people were sent to the direction of the valley, preparing to lurk outside the mountain stronghold to respond at any time.
The entrance to the village is right at the entrance of the valley. The wall is made of large stones, forming a high fortress with two watchtowers on top, with two guards standing on each.
The gate is made of iron, just like an ordinary city gate. It is thick and heavy. At this time, the gate is tightly closed. Except for the guards guarding the building upstairs, no one can be seen from the outside.
It is very difficult to sneak in through the gate.
The mountains here are high and steep, so it is not impossible to sneak in from the mountains on both sides, but that would take a lot of time, and it would also be easy to be discovered.
Just when Xiao Yunchen was at his wits' end, he saw the gate suddenly open, and a pair of men in black walked out neatly. They did not go far, but patrolled near the village gate.
It seems that this is a patrol team. As long as someone comes out, it will be easy to handle.
There are a total of twelve people in the patrol, so only four or five people can mix in at most, otherwise they will be suspected if there are too many unfamiliar faces. Xiao Yunchen then picked four guards to approach the patrol with him, waiting for an opportunity.
The five people hid in the bushes, and when the patrol passed by, they quietly abducted the five people at the end of the team, then changed into their clothes as quickly as possible and returned to the team.
Fortunately, these people don't have crescent marks on their faces, otherwise they wouldn't be able to pretend.
I thought they were unnoticed, but as soon as they entered the team, the captain at the front turned around and saw them returning to the team.
He walked over with a frown and asked, "What are you doing sneakily?"
Xiao Yunchen raised his voice and explained: "Just now, a few of us heard a rustling sound in the bushes. We thought there was someone there, so we walked over to take a look. Unexpectedly, it was just a small wild boar. It was a false alarm."
"Really?" The captain looked him up and down, "Why haven't I seen you before? Are you a new transfer here?"
Xiao Yunchen's breath was stagnant, then he nodded and said: "Yes, my subordinate has just been transferred here a few days ago, so you are familiar with it."
The captain nodded: "Our patrol team has strict discipline, but it is no better than other teams. If you find anything wrong while patrolling, you must immediately notify others, and you are not allowed to act without authorization. Remember?"
"Yes, I will keep this in mind." Xiao Yunchen nodded quickly.
"Okay, we've been patrolling for a while, let's go back." After saying that, the captain returned to the front of the team and led the others into the village.
Yu Yunxuan waited in the room for a long time. She was really bored, so she prepared to go out on her own and see if she could find a chance to escape. Unexpectedly, as soon as she opened the door, she saw two maids guarding the door.
"You guys have been staying here?"
The maid nodded: "Yes, girl, you are not allowed to leave this room before the master of the pavilion arrives. You'd better go back."
"I've been bored in the room for a long time, and I want to go out and get some fresh air."
"no."
"You..." Yu Yunxuan had no choice but to stamp her feet and had no choice but to go back.
As soon as she sat down again, a low and teasing voice came from the door: "The princess wants to come out to meet the master of the pavilion, right?"
Turning his head to look over, he saw a man in a moon-white robe slowly walking towards him, with a silver mask on his face, a tall figure, elegant manners, and a half-bundle of black hair hanging down his back, as if he had been banished to the world.
Yu Yunxuan looked at him and was stunned for a moment before she came to her senses and asked: "Who are you, and why did you catch me here?"
The man chuckled, walked up to Yu Yunxuan, stretched out his hand to touch Yu Yunxuan's face, "Wash off the dirt, and then put on this white dress, it will be perfect as expected."
Yu Yunxuan turned her head, stood up suddenly, and asked again angrily: "Let me ask you, what do you want to do? Why did you arrest me?"
"Why?" The man sat down at the table and poured a cup of tea, but did not drink it. "You are so beautiful. If I catch you, I will naturally make you my wife."
Yu Yunxuan was shocked and angry: "I am the princess of the Western Kingdom and the concubine of the regent. How can I be your wife? How ridiculous!"
But the man said: "What's impossible? You're not a princess yet. As long as I kidnap you here and make you my woman, can you still be my wife?"
There was an unkind aura in his tone, as if it instantly turned into a cold current, hitting Yu Yunxuan's body, chilling her limbs and bones.
"Don't even think about it! Even if I die, I won't follow you!"
Before she finished speaking, the man immediately approached Yu Yunxuan, pinched her chin with his cold fingers, and his tone became cold: "Really? Why not give it a try and see if you choose to die after becoming my woman?"
Well, I still choose to be the wife of the Pavilion Master."
"You, let me go..." Yu Yunxuan was pinched so much that it was difficult to breathe. At the same time, she smelled a faint fragrance of gardenia. She tried her best to push the man away, but he grabbed her hands, and her whole body fell instantly.
The person was pushed and fell onto the bed.
The man immediately suppressed her. Yu Yunxuan was so panicked that she struggled desperately with her hands and feet, but it was to no avail. The man's strength was too great and he could easily control her.
"Let me go, go away, go away..."
Yu Yunxuan could only cry non-stop, tears falling from the corners of her eyes, dripping on the quilt, and quickly seeping into it.
She felt a chill on her shoulders, and half of her coat had been taken off. The man kissed her cheek and pulled the ribbon around her waist.
"Let me go, please, please..."
Yu Yunxuan made her final struggle and cried out pleading to the man.
Just when she was desperate, the man suddenly stopped. He left the bed, straightened his clothes, looked at Yu Yunxuan with cold eyes, and snorted coldly.
"This Pavilion Master never likes to force women. Since you are so unwilling to be the Pavilion Master's wife, then forget it."
Yu Yunxuan pulled up the quilt in a panic and shrank into the corner, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably.
She thought the man was finally willing to let her go, but she heard him say again: "I am a generous master. The women I don't want are usually rewarded to my subordinates. Today they can taste a beauty like you.
Blessed."
Yu Yunxuan's body trembled and she looked at him with horror on her face. "What on earth are you going to do?"
The man smiled evilly and said, "You'll find out later." After that, he left the room.
Seeing the man leaving, Yu Yunxuan hurriedly went to the door to open it, but the door was locked from the outside. She then tried to open the window, but it couldn't be pushed open. The room was like an iron cage, trapping her.
