Mo Shu had no interest in anything else; he only wanted to quickly determine the enemy's direction by observing their footsteps.

"Go find horses and pursue them to the south."

After leaving his message in ink, he used his lightness skill to head south.

Suddenly, a troop of Jurchen cavalry charged from the south, one of the horses carrying a woman.

It was none other than Su Yujiao!

Mo Shu's eyes widened in disbelief that the young mistress had fallen into the hands of the Jurchens.

Mo Shu was outnumbered and was about to be beheaded by the Jin soldiers when his subordinates arrived in time to save his life.

The golden men then took Su Yujiao and drove away.

"Lord Mo, I have investigated and found two corpses ahead. One of them has your arrow in its arm."

“They all possess tokens from the Southern Frontier Kingdom.”

"The people who kidnapped the young mistress were from the Southern Frontier Kingdom, but they were intercepted by the Jurchens on the way."

Mo Shu suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, his face deathly pale as he stared at the vanished figure.

The Jurchens are extremely cruel. If the young mistress falls into their hands, her chances of survival are slim.

How can he explain this to his master?

Would the Jurchens use the young mistress to threaten their master?

Mo Shu was seriously injured and unconscious. He was carried to the city gate, but the Jin soldiers had already retreated. At this time, they were not afraid of anyone attacking when the gate was opened.

Walking through the cave was too slow, and they were afraid it would delay Mo Shu's treatment.

When the people on the city wall learned that it was Mo Shu and their men outside, they were first taken aback, and then immediately went to report to Lu Ziqian.

With the city gates closed, how did Lord Mo and his subordinates manage to leave the city?

Lu Ziqian came out in person, unaware that Su Yujiao was missing.

The siege had just ended, and he and several deputy generals were analyzing the battle situation. They hadn't even had time to return to their tents to rest.

Lu Ziqian frowned deeply: "What's going on?"

Why is the ink inscription so badly damaged?

How did you get out of the city?

Several guards immediately placed the ink book on the ground, knelt down and confessed: "General, the young mistress has been kidnapped by the Jurchens."

"There's a cave in the woods to the west that leads out of the city..."

Lu Ziqian stared at Bai Qiu, only seeing his mouth open and close, but he couldn't hear any sound.

My mind went blank, with only the thought of the young mistress being abducted by the Jurchens repeating in my head.

He swayed, and Mo Hua steadied him, looking at his pale face with some concern.

Now she knows Su Yujiao's position in her master's heart.

If Su Yujiao gets into trouble this time, her master will probably go crazy!

"master!"

She looked at Lu Ziqian's bloodless face and called out.

Lu Ziqian shook his groggy forehead, came to his senses, grabbed his subordinate's warhorse, mounted it, and galloped away.

"master!"

"General!"

Mo Hua rode off in pursuit on horseback!

At this moment, the Crown Prince and the Prince of Cheng also realized that something was wrong. When they reached the door, they saw Lu Ziqian and Mo Hua riding horses at full speed.

"What happened?" the crown prince pressed.

"The young mistress has been captured by the Jurchens, and the general has gone after her."

The Crown Prince and the City King's expressions changed drastically, and they shouted angrily, "What are you all standing there for? Go and bring them back!"

"Hurry, he can't be hurt."

If Lu Ziqian, as the commander-in-chief, were to get into trouble, the battle would be over.

The crown prince paced anxiously, saying, "Even if we're trying to rescue them, we can't go alone. Isn't that just suicide?"

The city king was also anxious; how could such a thing have happened out of the blue?

Women are such a hassle; this battlefield is not a place for women.

Now that Lu Ziqian cares so much about his wife, it might affect the course of the war.

The Crown Prince's face darkened: "Uncle, that's not appropriate. My cousin's wife is here to rescue someone."

"Without her, who knows how many more people would have died in this camp."

"Isn't it right for my cousin to care about his wife?"

"If it were my aunt who was kidnapped today, I'm afraid my uncle would also have gone after her."

The city king said with a dark face, "I was just venting, I didn't really blame Madam Lu."

"Sigh, this battle is going so badly."

"It's been bad from the very beginning, I'm afraid... sigh..." The city king sighed, flicked his sleeves, and walked away dejectedly.

Meanwhile, Lu Ziqian charged alone into the Jin camp, with Mo Hua and the other soldiers not following behind.

Ashina was taken aback when he learned that Lu Ziqian had stormed into the tent alone, and then became curious.

What is he doing here?

"Here to die?"

"Could this be a trap?"

"Let's investigate again!"

Lu Ziqian was surrounded by Jin soldiers, but he was not afraid at all. Instead, he shouted loudly.

"Ashina, if you have the guts, fight me one-on-one. What kind of skill is it to capture a woman?"

"If you dare to harm her in the slightest, I will kill your entire family!"

"Ashina, you come out here right now!"

"We went out to fight for the country. We just have different positions, not deep-seated hatred. Our families should not be implicated."

"Such despicable means are not the act of a gentleman."

"You resort to such despicable means today, aren't you afraid I'll arrest your wife and children tomorrow?"

Ashina was furious when he heard this from the camp commander. He always relied on his true abilities in battle, and he accepted whatever the outcome was, win or lose.

But he can't stand it when others try to pin dirt on him.

Who the hell kidnapped his woman?

He would never do such a despicable thing!

Ashina was so angry that he couldn't sit still. He stopped sending anyone to investigate and went out to confront Ashina directly.

It's my own territory, why would I be afraid of him?

Ashina, seeing that he wasn't joking and there was no ambush behind him, sent his trusted confidant to find out what was going on.

“General, Tuna and Uba did bring back a woman, whom they snatched from the people of the Southern Frontier Kingdom.”

Ashina was taken aback: "Where is he?"

"In...in the Crown Prince's camp."

"I'm afraid..."

Ashina's expression changed, and he forgot all about cursing and immediately went to rescue the person.

He knew what kind of person the Crown Prince was; anyone who fell into his hands would definitely not have a good end.

Damn it, my lifelong reputation is probably going to be ruined by this bear prince.

If it weren't for the Emperor insisting that he bring the Crown Prince out for training, he would never have brought this ancestor to the battlefield.

He's a real tyrant. If you don't let him bring women, he'll just harass the fair-skinned young soldiers in the barracks.

They came to the battlefield, but didn't fight a single battle. They just did that kind of thing all day. What kind of training was that?

Ashina grew angrier the more he thought about it. If the Jin Dynasty fell into the hands of this living ancestor, it would be doomed sooner or later.

"ah……"

As Ashina approached the prince's tent, he heard a scream.

But it wasn't a woman's voice; it sounded more like... the Crown Prince's?

Ashina and his soldiers rushed in and found the prince shirtless, his shoulders covered in blood.

Su Yujiao held a hairpin in her hand, staring at the Crown Prince with a wary expression.

"Your Highness, are you alright?"

Batur's expression was fierce and twisted, his finger trembling as he pointed at Su Yujiao: "Hold this bitch down for me, and see how I deal with her."

Ashina interrupted, "Your Highness, you mustn't."

"She is Lu Ziqian's woman. If we mess with her, we won't be able to explain it to him."

Batur's expression twisted into a ferocious grin: "Explain my ass! He's just a worthless general, why should I explain myself to him?"
