After leaving Yu Niang's place, Tian Yu fell into deep thought. All the way, she wondered if she was really Tian Yu, whether it was possible that she had forgotten how she got back to her residence, and how she was suddenly knocked unconscious from behind. When she opened her eyes again, the man standing in front of her was looking at her with curiosity and interest. Tian Yu took a step back in fright and said, "Who are you? Where is this?"

Wu Yaohui still couldn't believe that the person in front of him wasn't Tian Yu. He had seen that Xiao Tian before and almost believed her at first, but after a few conversations, he realized she wasn't her. He really couldn't be sure about the one in front of him. When he escaped last night, he originally wanted to kill her, but after just one glance, he chose to take her with him. He had heard that Zhao Moyan and his son were both bewitched by her. Seeing that she was awake, Wu Yaohui said seriously, "You'd better remember my name, Wu Yaohui!"

"Wu Yaohui!?" Tian Yu looked at him in horror, recalling what Yu Niang had told her last night. Was he the incompetent emperor who had killed Tian Yu? Wasn't he arrested? Had he escaped from prison?

"What, did you remember something?"

"No! I don't know you!" Tian Yu said, pretending.

"Change these clothes!" Wu Yaohui said, tossing a set of men's clothing to Tian Yu.

Tian Yu asked curiously, "Why do we need to change clothes?"

Wu Yaohui then began to take off his clothes in front of Tian Yu, who turned her face away.

“If you don’t want to change yourself, I can help you,” Wu Yaohui said, turning to Tian Yu after putting on his undergarments.

Startled, Tian Yu quickly ran into her room and changed her clothes herself.

On the other side, Zhao Moyan learned that Wu Yaohui had escaped the previous night. He led his men to the dungeon, only to find Xu Ri lying on the ground. He ordered his men to wake him up, but Xu Ri was completely bewildered. Zhao Moyan asked him what was wrong, but he knew nothing, not even how he got there. He immediately realized that Tian Yu must also be in danger, and ordered his soldiers to seal the city gates and search the area one by one.

When Tian Yu appeared before Wu Yaohui dressed as a man, Wu Yaohui smiled and said, "Looks just like him! No wonder he was moved! I'm curious who sent you?"

Seeing the inquisitive look in the man's eyes, Tian Yu chose to remain silent. It was best for her not to say anything now, lest she offend this powerful figure.

The city gate was filled with soldiers conducting searches, forming a long queue. Tian Yu had Wu Yaohui's arm around her shoulder, and he whispered in her ear, "You'd better behave yourself. I'll let you go once we're out of the city gate, or I'll strangle you!"

Tian Yu nodded repeatedly in fright. The two walked arm in arm toward the city gate. The soldiers noticed their attire; Wu Yaohui had even specially made beards for himself and her, and to cover her scent, he had sprinkled some of Tian Yu's unidentified potion. Tian Yu could tell he had come prepared, or someone was helping him. How was she going to escape in this situation? Just as the soldiers at the city gate reached out to stop them, Tian Yu thought her chance had come. But Wu Yaohui tightened his grip on her neck, and she didn't even have the strength to lift her head. Wu Yaohui smiled and said, "Sir, my brother and I are just going out for a stroll."

The officer glanced at the two of them. Wu Yaohui moved his hand to her shoulder, and with a little force, Tian Yu felt as if her shoulder was about to dislocate. She forced a smile and said, "Yes, sir!"

The officers looked at them and finally nodded to let them pass. Tian Yu winked at the officers standing in a row, but they couldn't see her at all. Just as they were about to leave the city, Wu Yaohui quickened his pace and grabbed Tian Yu's neck from behind to prevent her from turning around. Tian Yu was thus forced forward.

Hearing the furry bark behind her, Tian Yu knew that once she stepped out of the city gate, her life would likely be over. But she was powerless to do anything; Wu Yaohui was forcing her forward, a dagger pressed against her waist. The only saving grace was that many people were leaving the city, and Wu Yaohui dared not go too fast, forced to follow behind the group. Just as they were about to exit the city gate, Tian Yu, in a moment of desperation, suddenly made a heart shape with her hands behind her back. She thought that if she really was their Tian Yu, or if they truly came from the same era, she should be able to tell them what this meant!

Tangyuan stood on the carriage, looking around, and said to Maorong, "Maorong, quickly ask where Mother is?"

Zhao Moyan also rode his horse to the city gate. Suddenly, both father and son saw the hand gesture in the crowd. Tangyuan pointed ahead and was about to shout, but Zhao Moyan gestured for him to be quiet. Tangyuan nodded obediently and stared at the figure in the crowd. Zhao Moyan immediately ordered the soldiers to close the city gate. Wu Yaohui panicked when he heard this. Seeing that he was about to leave the city, he grabbed Tian Yu and ran out without thinking. In the chaos, the soldiers rushed up to stop him. Zhao Moyan pulled on the reins and chased after him, but there were too many people and the scene became chaotic. Zhao Moyan could only abandon his horse and leap onto it. Mao Rong also roared and rushed into the crowd. In an instant, the city gate was in chaos. Xuan Yu protected Tangyuan and Ji Feng caught up with Mao Rong, telling it to be quiet so as not to hurt others. Everyone was frightened by Mao Rong and retreated, not daring to move.

Taking advantage of the chaos, Wu Yaohui knocked down two soldiers and escaped through the city gate. Zhao Moyan gave chase, followed by Jifeng and Maorong.

Seeing that he couldn't escape, Wu Yaohui turned around and grabbed Tian Yu by the neck, holding a dagger in his other hand, shouting, "Get back! Otherwise, I'll decapitate her!"

"Let her go! This is our business, it has nothing to do with her!" Zhao Moyan said, drawing his sword and pointing it at Wu Yaohui.

"Unrelated? Are you sure?" Wu Yaohui said with a smile.

Mao Rong became agitated upon seeing Tian Yu, and the soldiers inside the city gates also began to catch up. Tang Yuan saw Tian Yu and cried out, "Mother!"

"Tangyuan! Tangyuan, don't come any closer!" Tian Yu said with difficulty. Although she wasn't his mother, she really liked Tangyuan and didn't want him to be in danger.

As Wu Yaohui increased the pressure in his hand, he threatened with the dagger, "Put down your sword! Back off! Bring the horse over here!"

Tian Yu felt like she couldn't breathe, and couldn't say anything, only gasping for breath in pain.

Zhao Moyan frowned as he looked at Tian Yu's sad expression, then sheathed his sword and ordered the soldiers to retreat.

Everyone watched as Wu Yaohui led Tian Yu onto a horse and left. Zhao Moyan told Tang Yuan to stay behind and, along with Jifeng and his men, rode after them.

Zhao Moyan followed closely behind. Wu Yaohui rode his horse into the woods, dismounted, and pulled Tian Yu into the forest. Tian Yu tried to persuade him to put the horse down, assuring him that Zhao Moyan wouldn't kill him. But seeing Wu Yaohui's angry eyes, she felt he would kill her at any moment, and dared not say anything more. She was pulled along by him into the depths of the forest.

As Wu Yaohui walked, he said, "It seems you're more to his liking than that Xiao Tian. I heard you're also named Tian Yu Ke, what a coincidence!"

“I’m not her!” Tian Yu said angrily.

"No? Then why was he so nervous? If I hadn't seen her die in front of me, I would have believed you were her!"

Tian Yu didn't want to answer him. Wu Yaohui walked to a spot and looked around. Tian Yu could tell that he was prepared, so she reminded him, "They'll catch up soon. You'd better run! You won't get far with me."

"Who told you I was going to run away?" Wu Yaohui then whistled, and several men in black immediately appeared. Tian Yu looked at the scene before her and felt like she had seen it somewhere before. Why did she have this sense of familiarity? Had she been watching too much TV?
