Yang Ze was shocked, and he immediately realized that something might be wrong!

Of course, he can only ride his mount. After giving Cai Cai, Cai Cai took great care of the horse and did not allow anyone to ride it. There are other horses in the county government. If Yang Ze had something to do, he would just ride another horse and would not compete with Cai Cai. Therefore, the horse has been exclusive to Cai Cai for a while. No one can move the horse except her. Now that the horse is gone, it is impossible for it to run away by itself. Then Cai Cai can only lead the horse away!

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, it’s early morning again. Why are you riding a horse if you have nothing to do?

Yang Ze ignored the horse. He immediately called a soldier and asked the soldiers to go to the city gate to see. Then he ran to the palace and shouted outside the door: "Prince, Princess, have you got up! Happy New Year!" He shouted loudly at the top of his throat!

Li Yan and the princess were both older, and they slept late last night, so naturally they didn't get up at this time. The couple woke up together when they heard Yang Ze's screams.

The princess said angrily: "Is this Yang Ze wrong? I stayed with you last night and lived in the opposite door again. Why did you come to pay New Year's greetings so early? You won't come in the afternoon!"

Li Yan yawned, got up slowly from the bed, and said, "You, when others came to pay New Year's greetings in the past, you said that you were neglecting us, and that others looked down on us was snobbish. Now that you finally have someone who doesn't neglect us, you think that they came too early!"

The princess thought about it and she enjoyed Yang Ze's "respect" in her heart. After all, this is the first county magistrate who does not regard them as "criminals".

Li Yan put on his clothes, he opened a crack in the window and said to Yang Ze outside the door: "Yang Ze, wait in the yard first, I'll come out now!"

Yang Ze was anxious when he saw Li Yan, saying, "Prince, can you help the officials to see if the little princess is in the house?"

Li Yan was slightly stunned, then turned around and said to the princess who was also dressing: "It seems that they are not here to greet us. It's just a reason. They are visiting the vegetables!"

The princess also laughed. Of course she was willing to go to the same place for the two children. She said, "I'll go and call Cai Cai!" She was about to go out of the house to call Cai Cai, suddenly, she was stunned for a moment and said, "No, Yang Ze shouted so loudly, how could Cai Cai not hear it? She was angry when she got up. If she couldn't sleep well, she would lose her temper when she was woken up!"

Caicai is not a princess growing in the imperial city. She never takes reserve or anything else to heart. If Yang Ze shouts like this outside and wakes her up, the little girl will have to shout to him through the window. But today it is so quiet, which means the little girl is not in the house!

No matter how fast Li Yan and the princess were, they could not come out immediately. Yang Ze could no longer wait. If something happened, he would chase after him for a moment, and the time would never be delayed. He shouted again: "Little princess, Caicai. Are you in the house? Are you there?"

There was no sound in Caicai's room, and Li Yan said anxiously: "What's wrong, what about Caicai?" The princess was also anxious, quickly put on her clothes, and the two came out of the room together.

When Yang Ze saw them coming out, he entered the yard and said, "Prince, the horse that the official gave to Caicai is gone. If Caicai was not there, would she have left the city?"

Li Yan and the princess looked at each other. They had known that Cai Cai would run out and look for her prince. They also hoped that this would be the case. Only in this way would Yang Ze go after him and that the two of them would have the opportunity to be alone. But now that things really happened, they would still be worried, worried that their daughter would encounter any accidents, and worried that Yang Ze would not chase him in time. What if he couldn't catch up, what would he do!

Li Yan shouted: "I must have gone out of the city to find that prince. Why did he run out on the first day of the Lunar New Year? I don't choose a time!"

The princess ran to Caicai's house and pushed the door open. She saw that there was no one in the room. There was a letter on the table. She opened the letter and saw that Caicai's letter was left by Caicai, saying that she would come back soon and told her father and mother not to worry. She had many friends on the grassland and would not be in danger!

He took the letter and showed it to Li Yan and Yang Ze. The princess panicked and said, "This child has not experienced any major events. What kind of friends can she have in the grassland? If you run out like this, what if you encounter a robber!"

At this time, the soldier sent by Yang Ze ran back and shouted: "County Master, the people at the city gate said that someone left the city last night and said that he had followed your order to inspect the surrounding area in case someone would attack us during the New Year celebration..."

Yang Ze said anxiously: "That's the little princess?"

The soldier shook his head and said, "At that time, everyone at the gate was drinking. It was dark, and the man covered his face tightly. They were drunk and didn't pay attention. He was going out of the city, not to enter the city, so they didn't take it seriously, so they let the man go out of the city and said that he had worked hard. On New Year's Eve, he had to go out to patrol the city and gave him a bag of wine..."

Although Zhenxi County is a frontier, few people dare to come here to rob. People from Zhenxi have always been robbing others, so the guards have never been strict, and Yang Ze did not specifically explain it. In addition, outsiders enter the city in the middle of the night, which will cause danger to the city, but they will not leave the city. The guards are celebrating, and no one takes the people who leave the city to heart!

Yang Ze was furious and shouted: "What is the city gate used for? Isn't it just to prevent idle people from entering and leaving? Now, the city wall has been repaired, but the city gate is useless. If there is a war, the enemy will not be allowed to take us in one fell swoop!"

The soldier was so scared that he shrank his head and did not dare to talk back, but thought to himself: "When the city wall is not repaired, there is no need to enter and exit the city gate? What's the point of guarding the city gate or not? Besides, the man said he had left the city after you ordered, so he couldn't let him go!"

Yang Ze had no time to pursue the dereliction of duty by the guards in the west of the town, so he had to train hard in the future and make up for the loss. He said to Li Yan: "Prince, the official will go out of the city to chase him immediately. The little princess has not been away for a long time, so she probably can catch up!"

Li Yan and the princess urged her repeatedly. They didn't dare to think about whether Yang Ze had the chance to get along with Cai Cai anymore. All they thought about was to find her back!

Yang Ze immediately raised a small group of soldiers, took Hao Weifeng and Fu Bingrong and others, and left Yan Chenghou to guard the house, rode his horse, and rushed to the city gate! When he arrived at the city gate, Yang Ze rebuked the soldiers who were guarding the gate and ordered them to watch the city gate in the future and dare to let people in and out of the city gate in the middle of the night, he would punish them severely!

The soldiers guarding the gate have not yet figured out that the one who left the city in the middle of the night is the little princess. They still feel aggrieved. In the past, there were big holes in the city walls, and no one took the guards seriously. Although the city wall has been repaired, the county magistrate did not say that people were not allowed to enter and exit in the middle of the night, and there was no curfew in place. They would not have thought that they would be restricted from leaving the city, and that they would be almost the same as restricted from entering the city.

Yang Ze led the soldiers and ran all the way along the horse's hoof prints outside the city. He estimated that Cai Cai left the city in the middle of the night. It was dark and the road was difficult to walk. She could not walk too far. As long as she chased her faster, she would be able to catch up!

After running for more than thirty miles, a fork appeared in front of him. A large road was divided into three small roads. There were many horse hoof prints and cattle and sheep hoof prints. From the hoof prints alone, it was no longer possible to tell which road the vegetables were taking.

Yang Ze stopped the horse, called Hao Weifeng, and asked, "Where do you know these roads go?"

Hao Weifeng said: "We all go to Tuluhun, but the tribes we went past are different. Tuluhun is too big and there are many tribes. Each tribe has its own pasture." He pointed to the road to the west and said: "This road is from Shuluo tribe, and this is the tribe closest to us."

Yang Ze of Shuluo tribe knew that it was the tribe where the two brothers Shuluo Chai and Shuluozao were located. However, it is not certain whether Caicai would go to Shuluo tribe, because Caicai didn’t know which road leads to Shuluo tribe!

Yang Ze could not determine which route Cai Cai was taking. He looked back at the people he brought out, a small team of ten soldiers, and he said, "Bingrong, main text, you will take people on these two routes, and the rest will follow me to Shuluo tribe."

Fu Bingrong and Tan Zhengwen agreed, took three people away and walked along the other two roads.

Yang Ze rushed to Shuluo's army with Mu Gen, Hao Weifeng, and the remaining four soldiers.

After running far away, Yang Ze stopped his horse again at noon and looked forward. He saw that there were plains in front of him, and there were no obstacles in his eyes, neither hills nor woods.

Yang Ze pointed to the front and asked Hao Weifeng: "Old Hao, you can see from here that there are more than ten or twenty miles of land, and there is no one. Is the situation in the distance still the same? If it is the case, we don't have to chase this direction."

Hao Weifeng was also in a dilemma. He couldn't determine which path Cai Cai was taking. If he made a mistake in judgment, the consequences would be serious. He had to tell the truth, saying that he could not determine this direction and did he need to chase him.

Yang Ze thought for a while and said, "Shuluo tribe is close to you. This direction is necessary. After finding the Shuluo tribe, you can ask the Shuluo brothers to gather people and help us find each other. I won't go there in person. Lao Hao, take people over and explain the matter clearly to the people of Shuluo tribe. If the little princess is there, let them send them back to the west of the town. If they are not there, let them help find each other."

Hao Weifeng quickly agreed and asked again: "Where are you, County Master, who should look for it from another direction?"

Yang Ze thought for a moment, but he didn't want others to know what prince Cai Cai was looking for, but in the current situation, he didn't say that he was afraid that it would be difficult to find it, so he said, "There was a prince once? When he went to the west of our town, he saw the little princess and gave her a fat sheep. Do you know that prince?"

Hao Weifeng's face changed and said, "The county master is talking about the people of the Murong tribe? That is the largest tribe in Tuluhun. The Khan in the tribe also claims to be a descendant of the Great Yan Dynasty and has royal blood. People there are not easy to mess with. In the past, there was a prince in the Murong tribe hunting around the west of our town. He also saw the little princess and sent her sheep, but his subordinates didn't know his name."
