Chapter 287 The Princess Was Abducted by the Kang Family!
At dawn, the city gate opened.
A group of cavalrymen galloped towards the city gate like lightning, and the deafening sound of horse hooves suddenly broke the tranquility of the early morning.
"Prime Minister! General Xuan!" Chen Qingfeng saw a group of cavalrymen outside the city gate and shouted hurriedly, "Her Royal Highness the Princess is missing! Her Royal Highness the Princess was kidnapped by the Kang family! Please General Xuan, please make the decision!"
What?
There was a commotion on both sides of the street. The people who got up early for their livelihood heard this and were shocked and looked sideways: "The princess is the real phoenix returning, and the Kang family dared to touch the princess?"
The Kang family is really bold, daring to even attack the royal princess?
"But the Kang family is the second prince's party, the emperor and the queen should not touch them." Someone said so, and there was inevitably some despair and powerlessness in the tone, "They dare to act tyrannically because they have someone in the court."
The Kang family is too powerful, and the people of Yanling have long complained about it, but they are afraid to compete with it because of its overwhelming power.
But don't they hope that the Kang family will be destroyed in their hearts?
"General Xuan, Prime Minister!" Chen Qingfeng arrived outside the city gate, dismounted and knelt, "I am incompetent and failed to protect the princess. I beg the general to rescue the princess immediately. I am willing to accept any punishment!"
General Xuan sat on the horse's back, his expression furious: "The Kang family is so bold that they even dare to touch the princess!"
The Prime Minister sitting in the carriage leaned out, frowning and serious: "The Kang family is getting more and more lawless. General Xuan, the most urgent thing is to rescue the princess as soon as possible."
"The Prime Minister is right, I will go to the Kang family to ask for an explanation now!" General Xuan said, kicking the horse's belly with both feet, "Go!"
The iron cavalry followed closely behind him, and the sound of horse hooves was like thunder.
Chen Qingfeng stood up and ordered a group of people to protect the Prime Minister's carriage, then re-mounted and led the way to the city.
Outside the gate of the Kang family, Kang Yueqing looked inside the gate for the third time: "Why hasn't Zixu come yet?"
At dawn, Kang Yueqing and his wife stood outside the gate waiting to welcome the prime minister and General Xuan.
Sitting in a wheelchair next to him was his second son Kang Ziyan, and on the right was his third son Kang Zihui. Only the eldest son Kang Zixu had not appeared yet.
Kang Zihui was released in the middle of the night last night. The whip wounds on his body were terrible, which made Mrs. Kang so distressed that she cursed the cruel princess again and again.
In the middle of the night, she asked the doctor to apply medicine to Kang Zihui to treat the scars. She didn't sleep much in the middle of the night, and she was not in a good mood at the moment.
"I don't know." Kang Ziyan smiled gently, calm and elegant, "Brother went to bed late last night, and he was injured, so he might have gotten up late."
He turned the wheelchair and said: "I'll go and see."
Mrs. Kang originally wanted to send a servant to ask, but she nodded when she saw this: "Okay, you should be careful."
Kang Ziyan reassured her and asked the servant to push the wheelchair to Huyueju.
"Big brother has been a bit tired these past two days, we don't have to worry too much." Kang Ziyan said in a light tone, "Push slowly, let him sleep a little longer."
The servant responded respectfully and said, "Second Master is so considerate of the eldest master, he is a good man."
Kang Ziyan lowered his eyes and looked at his legs, good man?
No.
He has no relationship with good people since more than ten years ago. The Kang family is completely rotten from inside to outside, and no one can save them.
"The Prime Minister and General Xuan are here, won't the eldest master let the young lady go out with him?" The servant seemed curious.
Kang Ziyan came back to his senses and smiled gently: "When have you ever seen a woman from the Kang family go out to greet guests directly?"
The book boy shuddered: "I made a mistake."
"Mother is an exception." Kang Ziyan said in a light tone, "Remember this, women have no status in the Kang family. No matter who you meet in the future, just say this, remember?"
The book boy nodded: "Yes, Second Young Master."
"The scenery on the corridor is nice." Kang Ziyan motioned the book boy to stop and quietly looked at the exquisiteness of the morning, "The environment is quiet and the air is fresh. Big brother's courtyard is really like a paradise."
The book boy looked at him in surprise: "Second Young Master, aren't we going to call the eldest young master to get up?"
"No hurry." Kang Ziyan quietly looked at the green vines hanging in front of him, "Let the eldest brother sleep a little longer, he must have worked too hard last night."
The book boy said, and always felt that something was wrong.
No matter how hard the eldest young master worked, there would be guests today. As the eldest son and future heir of the Kang family, he should get up early to greet the guests.
After an unknown amount of time, Kang Ziyan seemed to hear the thunderous sound of horse hooves coming from outside, as if even the ground was vibrating.
With a deep arc across his lips, Kang Ziyan ordered: "Push me to Huyueju."
"Yes."
The sound of horse hooves stopped outside the gate of the Kang family.
Countless cavalrymen dispersed in a well-trained manner and automatically surrounded the Kang family mansion without waiting for orders.
Mrs. Kang's face changed slightly: "General Xuan, what...what are you doing?"
"Everyone listen!" General Xuan sat upright on the horse, his posture was dignified, and he raised his hand and ordered: "Surround the Kang family mansion immediately, and not even a mosquito is allowed to fly out!"
"Yes!"
"General Xuan, what else is he going to do?" Kang Yueqing's face was not very good, "What crime did the Kang family break that you made such a big scene as soon as you came?"
General Xuan looked at Kang Yueqing coldly: "The eldest son of the Kang family is so bold that he even dared to touch the princess. The head of the Kang family should not say that he didn't know!"
Mrs. Kang's face changed suddenly: "General Xuan, are you mistaken? We didn't touch the princess--"
"I'm afraid what Madam Kang said doesn't count." General Xuan's tone was cold, with a sense of bloodshed and murder. "Last night at midnight, Kang's assassins sneaked into the posthouse and brought the princess here. One assassin lost his life for this. Are you still kept in the dark about this?"
Kang Yueqing's face suddenly changed. Assassins?
"This... this is impossible!" Madam Kang said in surprise, subconsciously turning her head to look at Kang Yueqing, and then explained to General Xuan: "The Kang family had a misunderstanding with the princess before, and yesterday they specially sent Zi Yan to apologize and got the princess's forgiveness. How could they do such a thing-"
"Madam Kang, don't be so excited." General Xuan turned over and dismounted, his tone cold and majestic, "Whether the princess was taken away, this general will give you ironclad evidence, but please be prepared, Master Kang and Madam, taking the princess without authorization is a capital crime."
After that, he led a team of people and strode in: "Go to the courtyard of the eldest son of the Kang family!"
"Yes!"
Kang Yueqing's expression changed drastically, and just as he was about to follow in, he heard Chen Qingfeng running over and said: "Master Kang, please stay!"
