Yu Youyao smiled meaningfully and said, The person who will escort me to Xiangping City is General An Yuan. Hes a dignified third-grade elder of the army. The people escorting me are the You army that was guarding the city previously. There are more than a thousand of them. Who in the world would believe that such an elite division, who can even beat the Di people to a pulp, would be so incompetent as to let a motley crew hijack a dignified princess? Its simply the biggest joke in the world.
Even if she was discovered to have been kidnapped by mountain bandits, no one else could use this matter to cause trouble.
This was because no one would believe it.
From the looks of it, it was indeed foolproof to let the Little Princess Consort take the risk personally. There was no need to worry.
But!
One of them sighed, while the other sighed sadly. Even their heads hurt.
Dont worry. Its not like I dont have the ability to protect myself at all. Seeing their dejected expressions, Yu Youyao felt a little embarrassed. After all, she was the one who had insisted on suppressing the bandits and caused trouble for them.
However, the suppression of bandits was also closely related to Yin Huaixi. After all, the development of the silkworm industry was the foundation for dividing the interests of the nobles and weakening their power.
If she didnt have a certain level of confidence, she wouldnt have risked herself.
At this moment, Yin Shi, who had been silent all this while, said, The Princesss status is precious, so its already very inappropriate for her to take risks. Therefore, I suggest that I disguise myself as a young miss of a wealthy family, and the Princess will disguise as a maidservant. Im not bad at fighting and am good at disguising myself. Itll be safer for me to pretend to be a young miss of a wealthy family to gather information.
She had been by Yu Youyaos side for a while. Usually, she was only in charge of Yu Youyaos safety, so her presence was almost negligible.
When the identities of Young Miss and the maidservant were compared, the Young Miss was naturally more eye-catching and in a more dangerous situation. Yu Youyao subconsciously wanted to refuse.
Yin Shi insisted, Your Highness sent me to the princesss side to protect her. Its my duty. If I disobey, please forgive me.
Huang Wenxian quickly agreed. The goal of being kidnapped is to put on a full show to ensure that everything goes well. Its also to investigate the situation in the village. As long as the Princess is in the midst of being kidnapped, it doesnt matter if shes a maidservant or a young miss.
General An Yuan also said, Old Huang is right. The Empress Dowager has issued an imperial decree to protect the Princesss safety. Its also His Highnesss duty. Whether its for the Princesss safety or to investigate the news in the stronghold, Yin Shi is more suitable to pretend to be a young miss of a wealthy family.
At this point, even if Yu Youyao wanted to refuse, Huang Wenhua and General An Yuan probably wouldnt agree.
The three of them discussed the details carefully and finally came to a decision.
General An Yuan would choose 500 of the best elites from the 1,000 You soldiers guarding outside the city to ambush near the stronghold in advance.
In addition, Yin San arranged for another team to specially receive Yu Youyao and the hostages.
Huang Wenxian disguised himself as the father of the rich young miss and would be kidnapped up the mountain with Yu Youyao. It was to take a step forward. This was to ensure Yu Youyaos safety, as well as to coordinate from the inside.
In addition, he chose 17 to 18 people to disguise themselves as servants and hired escorts. When the mountain bandits came to kidnap them, this group of disorganized people quickly disregarded the morals of the martial world and left their family to run for their lives to avoid unnecessary casualties.
According to the bandits usual style of doing things, they basically did not kill women.
Meanwhile, if the mountain bandits wanted to take hostages, it was impossible for them to only take ordinary commoners. They also had to take some people with status, which would make it easier for the government to be wary.
Huang Wenxian, who was disguised as the father, had brought so many supplies. His status was probably not bad, so he would definitely be arrested.
With the bone whistle as the signal, as soon as the signal sounded, General An Yuan immediately attacked the stronghold with the 500 elites lying in ambush.
Further discussion was needed on how to implement the specific plan.
The next day, Yu Youyao informed Lord Li, In five days, Ill be leaving Liancheng for Xiangping City. I heard that there are bandits entrenched in Anshan. Its better to travel in simple clothes on this trip. Its not appropriate to make a big fuss, let alone make this matter public.
Lord Li was also a smart person. Princess Shaoyi was deliberately luring the bandits to attack. At that time, the You army that was escorting her could legitimately suppress the bandits.
The governments ability was limited, so it was not easy to investigate the situation in the mountains. They did not know that there were hostages in the mountain stronghold, let alone Yu Youyaos plan to be kidnapped.
At that time, Lord Li would only think that the mountain bandits had really attacked Princess Shaoyi.
At that time, when he received the news, he only needed to bring the governments bailiffs over with great fanfare to receive her. On the way to Xiangping City, the news of Princess Shaoyi being attacked by mountain bandits would spread in Liancheng and everyone would know.
After that, the Imperial Court would definitely ask about it.
He needed to report this matter to the Imperial Court and deal with the Imperial Courts doubts about this matter. He needed to dispel the Imperial Courts suspicion of King Yue Fei suppressing the bandits so that he could rest easy in the future.
Lord Li had an idea. He said solemnly, Praying that everything will go smoothly for you on this trip, Princess.
He was not worried that Princess Shaoyi would be in danger if she used herself as bait. No matter how powerful the mountain bandits were, could they be more powerful than the Di people who were good at fighting?
The You army guarding outside the city all had a shocking aura. Just by standing there, they would make people panic to the point that even their legs would tremble. Dealing with just a few hundred mountain bandits was like cutting melons and vegetables.
No one suspected that the You army would not be able to defeat a group of mountain bandits.
After Lord Li left, Yu Youyao looked for General An Yuan. Are there specially trained hunting dogs in the army?
General An Yuan quickly said, Of course.
Not long after, a young soldier in cotton armor brought over a sleek German Shepherd. It was powerful in size, and its limbs were strong. Its ears were upright and its tail was drooping. It looked like a wolf
When it saw Yu Youyao, it subconsciously bowed and let out a low and threatening howl.
The little soldier patted its head gently. It immediately stood up straight and shook its head and tail. General Black has the blood of a wild wolf. He looks fierce on the surface, but hes actually very obedient. If the Princess feeds him something, hell be obedient.
Trained hounds did not eat anything from strangers. The young soldier was usually in charge of feeding and training the hounds. With him around, it was nothing.
Yu Youyao got someone to bring a roasted chicken to General Black.
General Black stared at the fragrant roasted chicken with a drooling expression, but it did not go up rashly.
The little soldier patted its head again. Only then did it happily rush forward and eat a large piece. As it ate, it even whimpered in satisfaction.
Its so obedient. Yu Youyao stroked General Blacks ears, and her eyes lit up, unlocking the joy of stroking its fur.
General Black did not even eat the roasted chicken. He went to her side before shaking his head and wagging his tail. He rolled around and behaved in a spoiled manner, even acting cute.
Who could withstand this?
Yu Youyao couldnt stay calm anymore. Her eyes lit up as she hugged the furry thing in her arms. Although this furry thing was a little big, it would seek favor and pretend to be obedient. It was nice to touch too!
