Ye Maochun, who was full of worries, walked out of Haitang Courtyard unknowingly. When he came to his senses, he found himself in the garden in the front yard.

The environment here was still quiet and elegant, but unfortunately Ye Maochun was in no mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery. Just as he was about to leave, a figure suddenly jumped out from behind the rockery.

Immediately afterwards, Ye Maochun felt a cold, shining knife on his neck.

"You... who are you?" Ye Maochun, with a knife at his neck, asked in horror.

"Don't make a sound, or I will cut your throat immediately!" Xiahou Jing threatened viciously.

Ye Maochun was so frightened that he could only shut his mouth obediently.

"Mother, let's retreat quickly! Otherwise, they will become suspicious when they find out that the person who delivered the food did not return." Xiahou Yu on the side reminded anxiously.

So, Xiahou Jing and her daughter took Ye Maochun with them and hurriedly fled from Prince You's Mansion.

When Xiahou Jing and her daughter were in the dungeon, killing the guards who came to deliver food, Gongyang Jieying threatened them by roaring to attract people and forced them to open the prison door for her.

However, Gongyang Jieying's luck was too bad. Just as she climbed over the high wall of Prince You's palace, she was hit by Tianji returning from outside. Gongyang Jiezhen, who also tried to take the opportunity to escape, was injured and his fighting power was greatly reduced, so he was recaptured again.

"What? Mom and Dad were kidnapped by Xia Houjing and her daughter?"

At the end of noon, Hua Qingcheng, who received the news in Songzhu Courtyard, was furious and immediately ordered to dig three feet deep in Youzhou City to search for Xiahou Jing, her daughter and Ye Maochun.

However, the mother and daughter were so cunning that they seemed to have circled the city countless times, and even Xiaobai, who followed the scent, was almost confused because he found that he had been circling the same place all the time.

As night fell, in a cave on the southern outskirts of the city, Xiahou Yu, his face filled with admiration, flattered, "Mother, you are truly wise! Now, it will be harder than climbing to heaven for Nalan Qingcheng and the others to find us!"

Xia Hou Jing said with a smug look on her face, "Humph, after all, I've eaten more salt than she has eaten rice!"

At this time, Bai Yuheng, who had just returned from outside, heard the sound coming from the cave and couldn't help but stop.
