Watching Xuan Yuanzhan descend the cliff barehanded, Su Xuening felt her heart sink with him.
Su Xuening lay on the edge of the cliff, her gaze following Xuan Yuanzhan's figure, but soon his figure was obscured by layers of white mist.
Su Xuening was extremely worried because she could no longer see or hear Xuan Yuanzhan.
The bottom was unfathomable; in fact, he would have been safer if he had tied himself to a vine.
I hope nothing bad happens to him, otherwise she'll never have peace of mind for the rest of her life!
Soon, Ye Yun and Ye Yu also arrived.
Seeing Su Xuening lying on the edge of the cliff, everyone was stunned and rushed over to pull her over: "Your Highness, what are you doing?"
Ye Yun and Ye Yu were so frightened that their hair stood on end.
Has the princess gone mad? What if she accidentally falls down? Wouldn't their prince go crazy too?
"Where is the prince?" Thinking of his own prince, Ye Yun realized that the prince was not by the princess's side, which was quite unusual!
"The prince has gone down the cliff." Su Xuening shook them off and went back to the edge of the cliff.
Ye Yun and Ye Yu were shocked: "Why is Your Highness going down the cliff?!"
"Could it be that Madam Su fell off the cliff?" Ye Yun's mind raced the fastest, and he thought of the most likely reason for the prince's fall.
“My mother and Jinzhu should be at the bottom of the cliff.” Su Xuening didn’t hide anything from them at this moment and told them about what Xuan Yuanzhan had just done by picking up scraps of cloth on the cliff: “The prince is still injured, and this cliff is bottomless. I’m worried that he might be in danger.”
"Don't worry, Your Highness, the Prince will be fine." Seeing Su Xuening's worry, Ye Yun quickly reassured her.
He and Ye Feng had followed the prince since they were young, and no one knew better than them how high the prince's martial arts skills were. Even if he fell off a cliff, he should not be in any danger, although he himself might have to endure some hardship.
This is a cliff that the princess is falling off; the prince probably doesn't even find it hard.
However, since the prince had fallen off the cliff, they couldn't just ignore it.
"I will take some men to see if there is a road that leads down to the bottom of the cliff."
They and Ye Feng weren't incapable of descending the cliff due to their martial arts skills, but they couldn't descend as quickly as the prince could from such a high cliff. It would probably take them a very long time to get down, so it would be faster to go down the mountain and find a way.
"I'm going too." Su Xuening didn't want to just wait up there either; she also wanted to go down the cliff.
Ye Yun and Ye Yu then took Su Xuening down the mountain.
The group searched downwards for more than an hour before finally finding a place that looked like the bottom of a cliff.
"I never imagined that such a large ravine was hidden at the bottom of this cliff!" Ye Yun exclaimed in shock.
He had followed the prince to his fiefdom since childhood and was really unfamiliar with the capital city. Who would have thought that such a large ravine was hidden below this cliff?
This mountain stream is very secluded and rarely visited. The surrounding scenery is also very pristine and beautiful!
However, Su Xuening had no mind to appreciate the beautiful scenery at the moment, because she not only did not see her mother and Jinzhu here, but even Xuanyuan Zhan was nowhere to be seen.
Ye Yun glanced at the cliff face.
That shouldn't be the case. Given the prince's speed, he should have come down long ago. It's been more than an hour; there's no way the prince could still be on that cliff.
"You guys go down into the ravine and take a look, you guys search downstream."
Ye Yun gave a series of orders, and the guards immediately dispersed to search for the person.
Su Xuening stood by the mountain stream and looked at the flowing water.
Actually, the water in this mountain stream is quite rapid; if you fall from a very high place, you'll probably be swept away very quickly.
Thinking it over, Su Xuening followed the guards downstream.
Ye Yun followed Su Xuening and said, "Your Highness, we've walked so far, wouldn't you like to rest? The Prince will surely be alright."
They had been walking for more than an hour. Not to mention her, a woman, even he, a guard who knew martial arts, was exhausted.
"It's okay, I'm not tired."
Su Xuening had no time to rest; she needed to find her mother and Jinzhu as soon as possible, and also reunite with Xuan Yuanzhan.
Seeing her anxious expression, Ye Yun didn't dare to persuade her anymore, but stayed close to her side, afraid that something might happen to her.
The princess is the prince's darling, so nothing can happen to her.
After walking for another half an hour, they saw Xuanyuan Zhan, who was pulling a woman out of the water.
"Your Highness!" Upon seeing Xuan Yuanzhan, Su Xuening and Ye Yun immediately rushed over.
When Xuanyuan Zhan saw Su Xuening following him, he quickly pulled the woman to the shore and looked at Su Xuening, asking, "Is she your mother?"
Su Xuening immediately ran over. She didn't even see the woman's face, but recognized her by her figure and the whip marks on her body: "Yes, she is my mother."
With trembling hands, Su Xuening brushed the wet hair from the woman's face. Seeing the face she had longed for day and night, Su Xuening's tears instantly welled up uncontrollably: "Mother!"
She finally found her!
Six years have passed. From her past life to this one, she has spent six years to finally see her again.
Xuan Yuanzhan stared blankly at Mu Junyu's face, which was extremely similar to Su Xuening's.
She really does look like Madam Su, about 70% like her, except Madam Su is more spirited, while she is more aloof.
"Mother's injuries are severe. Let's take her back first and find the imperial physician to treat her." Xuan Yuanzhan had just checked Madam Su's pulse and found that she was still alive.
However, judging from her injuries, and the fact that she fell from such a high cliff, even if it was a ravine below, the impact must have been considerable, which would have certainly aggravated her injuries.
Originally, Su Xuening was still immersed in the joy of finding her mother, but after being reminded by Xuan Yuanzhan, she immediately began to examine her mother's pulse.
Xuan Yuanzhan looked at Su Xuening's series of actions with a surprised expression.
Does she know medicine?
Moreover, judging from her technique, her medical skills seem to be quite extraordinary!
Su Xuening checked Mu Junyu's pulse and found that although she still had a pulse, it was extremely chaotic and weak, indicating that her life was in danger.
Looking at Mu Junyu's thin face and the whip marks all over her body, Su Xuening's eyes reddened once again.
Those damned old women, they're too kind to die. She'll have them torn to pieces.
She also wants to avenge Su Huiyan and Su Renyi. She will make them pay for their crimes even if it means her death!
"Is Mother's condition serious?" Seeing her solemn expression, Xuan Yuanzhan frowned and asked.
"It's very serious, his life hangs in the balance."
As Su Xuening answered, she tried to insert acupuncture needles into Mu Junyu's head to protect her heart meridian, but when she touched her head, she suddenly remembered that the silver needle had just been used to stab an assassin.
"Your Highness, could you help me find Jinzhu? She must have fallen down with her." Su Xuening suddenly looked at Xuan Yuanzhan.
Although her mother's condition was dangerous, she couldn't abandon Jinzhu, who should be nearby.
As soon as Su Xuening finished speaking, Ye Yu came over carrying Jinzhu: "Found it, it floated downstream, but it seems the person is no longer alive."
