At this moment, Ru Liu came running over: "Sir, there is news about Prefect Yu."
Li Sisi asked hurriedly: "Where is it?"
"On the mountain, I have arranged people to surround him." Ru Liu looked at Xiao Yunchen and replied.
Xiao Yunchen nodded: "Let's go together."
For convenience, everyone rode their horses up the mountain at full speed, and only continued walking when they reached the last place where riding was no longer possible.
When the group climbed to a cliff halfway up the mountain, they saw Magistrate Yu and two of his followers standing on the edge of the cliff. Magistrate Yu was holding Jinhe!
"Quickly back off! I'm really going to jump!" Prefect Yu said tremblingly, "You don't want Marquis Xiao's only grandson to be buried with me, do you?"
Li Nian was shocked. There was a cliff thousands of feet high behind them. Jinhe was not the heroine, so there would be no special opportunities if she jumped down.

"What do you want? We can satisfy you." Li Nian spoke quickly.

Prefect Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

Perhaps because he agreed so readily, Prefect Yu no longer believed it.
"Come here and take my poison first. After I leave safely, I will arrange for someone to send you the antidote." Prefect Yu said. This was the safest approach he could think of.
Xiao Yunyu still agreed readily: "Okay." Then he walked towards Prefect Yu.
Prefect Yu stared intently at his approaching footsteps and warned, "Don't try any tricks. My official position is already gone, so I don't mind taking the Crown Prince's daughter with me before I die!"
A hint of anger flashed in Xiao Yunyu's eyes, but he said calmly: "Don't worry, for the safety of my daughter, I won't take any risks."
