Zhou Chuan looked at Yang Taozhi with a puzzled expression and said, "Young Master Zhao is a painter."

painter!

Zhou Nuo immediately pictured those little figures in his mind and blushed.

Those things...

Did he draw it himself?

Zhao Cheng smiled, thinking that Yang Taozhi and he were quite compatible; the difference between a painter and a bard was... not too great!

Zhao Cheng laughed and said, "I know a little about both poetry and painting!"

Zhou Chuan praised, "You two siblings, one skilled in martial arts and the other in literature, truly bring honor to your ancestors!"

"You flatter me! You two siblings, one with a sword and the other with an arrow, are truly a pair of dragon brothers and tiger sisters!"

Zhao Cheng clasped his hands in greeting and asked, "Brother Zhou, what brings your sister to Lingshan?"

Zhou Chuan said, "Find someone."

Zhou Nuo also said, "We have learned that the Right Chancellor..."

"Xiao Nuo," Zhou Chuan suddenly called out.

Upon hearing the words "Right Chancellor," Zhao Cheng paused for a moment. Just as he was about to ask further questions, Yang Taozhi gently nudged him.

Zhao Cheng understood that Yang Taozhi had already gotten all the information she needed from Zhou Chuan, so she stopped asking questions.

But regardless of who Zhou Chuan and his sister are looking for, or whether Zhao Cheng wants to continue searching for his father, they must first send these women and children down the mountain.

On the way down the mountain, Zhao Cheng learned from Yang Taozhi that Zhou Chuan and his sister had come to Lingshan to find Zhao Huan.

But Yang Taozhi didn't find out what their relationship was with Zhao Huan, whether they were enemies or friends.

There was still a lack of trust between them; Zhao Cheng had not revealed his identity, and Zhou Chuan and his sister had not told the truth.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

At noon, as the women and children were getting drowsy from walking, several arrows suddenly flew out of the nearby bushes.

Zhou Chuan reacted quickly, drawing his sword to block the arrows.

"You're asking for death for shooting an arrow at me from behind!" Zhou Nuo switched to battle mode and fired three arrows in quick succession. Three muffled thuds and hurried footsteps echoed from the forest.

The three who were shot with arrows had already died, and the remaining companions had disappeared without a trace.

Looking at their attire, Zhao Cheng asked in confusion, "These people are not from the same group as those mountain bandits. Could it be that there is more than one bandit group in Ling Mountain?"

As he spoke, Zhao Cheng pulled one of the children over and asked, "Do these three look familiar? Have you seen them before?"

The child looked closely and shook his head.

Zhou Chuan looked around and said, "Just be careful, let's get them down the mountain first."

"Um……"

The group continued down the mountain, but before they had gone far, a dense crowd of people suddenly appeared in front of them.

Zhou Nuo immediately drew his bow and nocked an arrow!

Zhao Cheng, however, held Zhou Nuo's hand and stared blankly at the group of people leading the way.

One of them, holding a broken knife, looked foolish and had a frightening scar on his face.

Who else could it be but Zhao Wu?

Xiao Luomu, who was standing next to Zhao Wu, was the first to see Zhao Cheng clearly. He immediately walked over with a big laugh and opened his arms.

"Hahaha, I've finally found you, Xiao Xiang..."

Zhao Cheng immediately rushed over, tackled Xiao Luomu to the ground, and covered his mouth.

Behind Xiao Luomu, Xiao Luofeng, fully armored, gasped.

The two were so enthusiastic from the moment they met...

One wanted a hug, and the other pounced on him!

What exactly is the relationship between the young prime minister and my brother?!
