Yun Shang raised her head in disbelief, "What did you say? Did you say that Chengye has disappeared? When did it happen? Why did he disappear?"
Liu Yinfeng was stunned. Yun Shanghad told him that after she poisoned Cangjue Qingsu, she asked the army not to take any action, just in order not to arouse suspicion from Cangjue Qingsu. She had already discussed with Luo Qingyan about letting Luo Qingyan deliberately make some trouble, so that Cangjue Qingsu would think they had no time to care about the State of Yelang and let him rest assured.
He thought the so-called trouble referred to the disappearance of Chengye.
Looking at Yun Shang's reaction, Liu Yinfeng also reacted quickly. He recognized that the disappearance of Chengye was not a part of Yun Shang's plan.
Liu Yinfeng panicked. Luo Qingyan didn't want Yun Shang to know it so early, but he spilled the beans.
What could he say to make it right?
Yun Shang didn't give him time to think. She kept asking about it, "Tell me! What happened? Chengye was missing? When did it happen? When did you get the message? What did the message say?"
Liu Yinfeng sighed and answered truthfully, "I just heard a few days ago that His Majesty was attacked on the way back to the palace. The Crown Prince was kidnapped by the bandits and his whereabouts are unknown."
After saying that, Liu Yinfeng added, "A year ago, I entered the military camp. Because I needed some spies, I summoned all the spies who had been placed in the palace of some officials in the Jin City to my side. Therefore, I don't know much about the information of His Majesty.
I don't know where the news came from. It was reported to me just because it was spread to the frontier and was known by my spies. I don't think we can really believe it since the source of the news is unknown. Besides, the news was spread from His Majesty to the frontier in at least one month or half a month. I don't know how many people have spread it, and the reality might have been distorted during the spread.
After hearing the news, I was also worried about the Crown Prince's safety and wanted to know what had happened, so I immediately sent people to inquire about it. The spies were sent out a few days after I left the frontier to send troops. You don't have to be so worried. You can make a plan after you get the information."
All of a sudden, Yun Bhang heard the news of the disappearance of Chengye, and her mind was in a mess. She shook her head, "I'll go back right away. I'm afraid you have to deal with the matter in the Wu Er'he City."
Liu Yinfeng frowned and said, "Now we have just taken over the city, it's still very chaotic. Recently, there are many ordinary people who are fleeing because they heard that we are going to attack. It's really unsafe for you to leave now." Yun Shang had made up her mind. "I have brought enough secret guards with me. As long as I arrive in the State of Xia, there will be our people to support me. I will be fine. I must go back.
"No matter whether the news is true or not, no matter what the situation is now, as a mother, I can't be indifferent when I hear that something happened to my child. I can't wait for the news without worries. If I go back earlier, I will know what is going on earlier."
Liu Yinfeng's lips turned pale. He raised his hand to pull back his cloak and said, "Okay, Your Highness, I'll send two teams of guards to escort you back to the State of Xia."
Seeing that Yun Shang was about to refuse, Liu Yinfeng became tough and said, "This is the only concession I can make.
I believe that after you enter the territory of the State of Xia, you will be well arranged and will be safe. But this is not the State of Xia. At least, I have to ensure that you can enter the State of Xia safely."
