Before dawn, the little eunuch knocked on the door in panic and woke up Yi Chenjing and Bai Qige. When Yi Chenjing opened the door with a frown and an evil look, besides the little eunuch, there was a bewildered Zhan Ting standing outside.
"What's going on?" Knowing that Zhan Ting couldn't speak clearly when he was nervous, Yi Chenjing simply asked the young eunuch directly.
"It's Master Ye. Master Ye stole the horse from the imperial guard camp and broke out of the palace!"
Yi Chenjing took a breath and looked at Zhan Ting: "Don't tell me that Ye Zi is angry with you."
Zhan Ting's face was bleak, and he was more anxious than embarrassed. He looked at Yi Chenjing helplessly. Seeing his pitiful appearance made Yi Chenjing laugh and get angry. Finally, he sighed: "Qi Ge, I leave this matter to you.
Yeah, I really can’t solve it.”
While she was talking, Bai Qige had already put on her clothes and walked to the door, frowning and looking solemn, obviously not as relaxed as Yi Chenjing.
"Eunuch Xiao, did Master Ye leave alone?"
"When I got back to the empress, the guard at the palace gate said that Master Ye was the only one, carrying a baggage, and looked very aggressive, as if he didn't plan to come back again."
"Yi Zi is really hurt by you. Her temper is such that she won't do anything like this unless she has to." Bai Qige pondered for a moment, her expression became more solemn, "No, we have to get her back as soon as possible. She has never been out alone."
, you must avoid causing trouble."
Zhan Ting was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and muttered: "Such a big man should have some sense of measure..."
"I have been spoiled by Fu Chu since she was a child. How does she know what is appropriate? Plus, she is in a bad mood after being rejected by you all the time. Can you guarantee that nothing will happen to Ye Zi?"
Perhaps Bai Qige's tone was urgent, or her serious expression scared Zhan Ting. After several hesitations, Zhan Ting finally nodded reluctantly: "Then I'll go find her and try to bring her back."
"It's not about trying your best, it's about doing it for sure!"
Under the "coercion" of Bai Qige and Yi Chenjing in unison, Zhan Ting dressed up and left the palace before dawn to look for Ye Huawan. When Fu Chu learned of the accident and rushed to the imperial study room, it was already the next morning, waiting anxiously.
After a whole day, Zhan Ting came back, but Ye Huawan was still missing.
"I've looked for places to eat and have fun, but there's nothing there." Drooping his head, Zhan Ting looked several years older.
"You just want these places?" Bai Qige was furious. Her body, which had not yet recovered after giving birth, was trembling with anger. "Ye Zi has grown up, how long will you treat her as a child? You deliberately don't
Whether you care about her or don't understand her, when will you think about Xiao Yezi? Do you think it's easy for a woman to keep chasing after you? Do you think she is shameless? After so many years, you
Can’t you look at other people’s pain in addition to looking after yourself?”
Bai Qige's sudden burst of anger left Zhan Ting at a loss. She looked at Fu Chu and Yi Chenjing as if asking for help, but she saw a trace of undue panic in Fu Chu's eyes.
"Zi Zi's character... probably returned to Yiye Villa..." For some reason, Fu Chu stuttered a bit, as if he was worried about something, "It would be okay if we can arrive smoothly, but I'm afraid of those who are eyeing Yiye Villa."
Someone will be there halfway..."
In the past two years, there have been many people in the world who want to kill Ye Huawan and eradicate Yiye Villa. Who knows if there will be danger on the way back to Qingming Mountain?
Fu Chu's worry reminded Zhan Ting of the potential danger, and his face turned pale: "Zi Zi only knows a few superficial skills... No, I will chase her now!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the figure quickly rushed out of the door and disappeared into the blazing sunshine.
"...Is it okay to let him go alone?" Yi Chenjing's eyes wandered between Bai Qige and Fu Chu. After several turns, she raised her eyebrows and turned sideways, reaching out to wrap her arms around Bai Qige's waist, "You can make as much trouble as you like, don't get caught.
You suddenly got angry like an evil man and thought you were in good health?" Seeing Fu Chu opening his mouth to speak, Yi Chenjing looked away with another look of disdain: "And you, Fu Chu, what do you want to do with the two of them?
, don’t drag Qi Ge into the water, you are already tired enough of helping me deal with all the troubles all day long, do you have the heart to torment her again?"
Fu Chu's face improved a little, he shook his head, and bowed respectfully to Bai Qige to thank him. As for the reason for his gratitude, none of the three people said anything.
Zhan Ting has a thick head but is a full-fledged activist. At noon on the second day after Ye Huawan broke out of the palace, he drove his horse straight to Qingming Mountain with simple clothes and simple clothes. The evil look on his face was getting stronger - he knew very well that Yu Ye
How dangerous it is for Hua Wan to go out alone. In the past two years, there have been occasional attacks in the heavily guarded palace, let alone outside the palace without protection? It is only his fault that he was careless, because there has been a little peace recently.
Forget the potential danger, if something happens to Ye Huawan...
Gritting his teeth and tightening his grip on the horse's belly to speed up, Zhan Ting frowned in the howling wind.
"Yi Zi, don't let anything happen...please."
Otherwise, he would be sorry for Fu Chu, sorry for the poisonous doctor, sorry for Qiao Qingxu, and even sorry for the infatuated but repeatedly injured Ye Huawan.
The journey to find Ye Huawan was not smooth. Zhan Ting was attacked by several cold arrows on the way. Although he was not injured at all, it seriously delayed the trip. He did not catch up with the attackers in order to rush, and he gained nothing at all.
On the third day, Zhan Ting found clues in front of a small inn that was the only way to Yiye Villa. He inquired carefully, and the results shocked him.
The inn was extremely small, and it was one of the stopping points between Qingming Mountain and the Imperial Capital. What caught the attention of the war court was a horse tied in front of the inn - the horses of the Imperial Palace Forbidden Army were specially bred, and there was a symbol on the left side of the neck.
The imprint of the Forbidden Army Camp was hundreds of miles away from the imperial capital. The possibility of the Forbidden Army Camp appearing was very slim, so this horse could only have been snatched away by Ye Huawan and left behind.
It should have been a happy event to find Ye Huawan's trace, but when Zhan Ting happily asked the innkeeper about it, he got a bad answer.
"The guest officer is asking about the female owner of Yiye Villa? Oh, of course I know. The female owner mentioned it when she had dinner with a few heroes in the shop two days ago, but she has already left and is with a few heroes.
All the heroes came together. As for the horse, because it seemed that the female owner of the village was very drunk when she left, one of the heroes said that he would abandon the horse and ride away with the female owner of the village."
Zhan Ting's heart skipped a beat.
Ye Huawan did come into contact with many people when she was at Yiye Villa, but those people were basically familiar customers. She, a young girl who was not deeply involved in the world, did not know that the world was dangerous and it was easiest to be gullible. At present, the forces in the world were turbulent, and he also
I once heard the old village leader mention that someone wanted to do something detrimental to Yiye Villa. Thinking carefully about the identity of the person who "happened" to appear and take Ye Huawan away, I always felt that it was a trap, and the target was obviously Ye Huawan.
After asking the innkeeper where the group was, Zhan Ting quickly set off to pursue them again, regardless of eating or resting. After chasing for more than ten miles, he stopped his horse in a hurry and was struck by thunder in an instant.
There was a blood-stained coat lying quietly on the ground in the distance, which was exactly what Ye Huawan liked to wear when he was in the palace.
