Chapter 457 The whole country knows that Yun Ran is missing
Yun Ran and Da Wu ran all the way from the small path. Fortunately, it was the middle of the night and there was no one on the road.
As she galloped on her horse, she silently calculated the distance. When she had reached about four or five kilometers, she found a place with dense trees and stopped.
The trees here are already bare, without any leaves, just bare branches. It is obvious that they are far away from the southern boundary.
Yun Ran breathed a sigh of relief temporarily, dragged the witch to a big tree to lean against, then untied the dragon beard noodles and put them away. Without stopping for a moment, he turned around and left.
The Great Wizard was stunned for a moment. He was now unable to move due to the acupuncture points on his acupoints, and Yun Ran didn't even unclog his mute acupoint?
He was now like a human-shaped wooden stake, leaning against a tree, unable to speak or move, unable to do anything. He watched Yun Ran's figure walking farther and farther away, about to disappear into the darkness.
Suddenly, Yun Ran stopped and his eyes lit up, thinking that Yun Ran had changed his mind.
However, Yun Ran just paused for a moment, turned around and said to him: "Don't worry, the Xue Dao will be untied by itself in an hour. I will leave first."
After saying that, he turned around and disappeared quickly.
Great Wizard: ...
He prided himself on being able to read people's minds and influence other people's thoughts, but now, he felt that he had never been so speechless in his life.
Yun Ran left the witch behind, climbed onto the black horse, and ran for a long distance. At a small road leading to the town, she randomly chose a direction, patted the horse's butt, and let it run away.
Then she walked into town.
This should be a small town in the southern part of Dakang Kingdom. She remembered that Nan Xuan had told her before that Xuantian Pavilion was just south of Dakang Kingdom.
It was impossible to go back to the capital. She might be caught by the emperor or Prince Heshun's men, and she didn't want to make things difficult for Ye Jingzhen.
If Ye Jingzhen had saved her, Ye Cangling would have been furious, and it was unknown what kind of punishment he would have faced.
So, she planned to look for a branch of Baidouxuan in this town, and send a message to Xuantian Pavilion to ask her master to pick her up.
If there is any place in Dakang that is relatively safe and will not cause the emperor to vent his anger on the other party, it should only be Nanxuan's Xuantian Pavilion.
Fortunately, she quickly found one. The shop was not big, but now in Yun Ran's eyes, it was the light of hope.
She quickened her pace towards the dim sum shop, but someone suddenly patted her shoulder.
Yun Ran paused, and the moment he turned around, his eyes suddenly widened.
The person standing behind her was none other than Ye Jinghua, the person she had just thought of.
"Little Princess Jing'an," Ye Jinghua said with a gentle smile on her face, "You can run quite well."
At this time, it was already bright outside, and there were already many pedestrians walking on the streets of this strange town.
Yun Ran quickly took a few steps back and put some distance between himself and Ye Jinghua.
Ye Jinghua kept smiling, but the words he said made Yun Ran's blood run cold.
"What a pity! Even after escaping here, you were still captured by me. Do you know why His Majesty and the King of Nanlin teamed up to plot this?"
Yun Ran bit her lips tightly. The answer she couldn't get from the Great Wizard made her breathing stop for a moment.
"Because," Ye Jinghua's smile deepened, "King Nanlin promised His Majesty that as long as you are handed over, he will tell him the most mysterious and precious method of rebirth of the Grand Master of Nanlin Kingdom.
King Nanlin even promised to ask the Imperial Master to help him revive the late Queen Jiang Nian."
Yun Ran's face turned pale in an instant, and the hand holding the corner of his clothes trembled slightly.
Ye Jinghua felt very happy. "So, you have no choice. Father has been crazy for most of his life in order to resurrect Jiang Nian. Even if the condition of King Nanlin is to send his princes and princesses to death, he will agree."
"As for Ye Jingzhen, think about it yourself. Jiang Nian is his biological mother. If he knew the emperor's true purpose, do you think... would he still care about you?"
Seeing Yun Ran frozen in place, Ye Jinghua's expression froze, and he ordered his attendants, "Take her away! I will personally send her to Nanlin!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the two guards following him quickly took action, restraining Yun Ran from the left and right.
…
On the other side, Ye Jingzhen had already led his troops south along the road indicated by Miao Yi.
However, as soon as he left the capital, he met Yun Chenglu, who was in a hurry with a large group of people.
It turned out that after Yun Ran was taken away by An Ji, he did not come back until midnight. Yun Sanlang and Yin Qianlan could not sit still, so they went to the capital to find Yun Chenglu at night.
Yun Chenglu mobilized troops late at night, and the whole capital was searching for his sister, even alarming General Zhao Jing.
The upright General Zhao also knew that he was a sister-loving man, so he sent a lot of people to help look for her.
But they didn't think much about it. Who would have thought that the emperor would have bad intentions towards Yun Ran?
Yun Ran is already Ye Jingzhen's future princess, and Ye Cangling's future daughter-in-law.
So, they just thought that Yun Ran had an accident on the way back from the palace.
Ye Jingzhen quickly told Yun Chenglu the whole story, and Yun Chenglu's face instantly turned dark.
"This bastard! If anything happens to Ranran, I won't let him go!"
After he finished yelling, he realized that the "bastard" he had just mentioned was the current emperor, and also Ye Jingzhen's biological father.
Yun Chenglu felt guilty for a moment, but Ye Jingzhen didn't react to his words at all, and his expression was even uglier than his.
"Let's go after her together," Ye Jingzhen said in a cold voice, "I believe Ranran won't just sit there and wait for death. She will definitely find a way to escape or delay time. We can catch up with her."
"Okay!" Yun Chenglu responded readily, squeezed the horse's belly with his legs, and the horse galloped out wildly.
From beginning to end, he didn't even look at Miao Yi who was following behind Ye Jingzhen.
Miao Yi's eyes were red and she didn't dare to say a word to Yun Chenglu.
She felt sorry for Ye Jingzhen and Yun Chenglu.
It was her. It was because of her that Yun Ran was kidnapped.
On this side, Ye Jingzhen and Yun Chenglu chased all the way south under the guidance of Miao Yi, while on the other side, Yun Chengfu was using his connections in the palace to inquire about Yun Ran's whereabouts.
Yin Qiu also mobilized troops and began a carpet search around the capital.
Rong Bing naturally would not fall behind. He used the Rong family's network of connections to gather information everywhere, determined to turn the entire Dakang Kingdom upside down.
Even Yunhua's Fangxian Embroidery Tower sent people out to search for Yun Ran's whereabouts, not missing a single clue.
For a time, the Great Kang Kingdom was in turmoil.
Even a random person on the street knew that the future princess of the young Prince Jing'an, the precious little grandson of the old Pavilion Master Rong and Lord Yin, the Hanlin Academician Yun Jinzhi, the youngest and most promising Deputy General Yun of the Great Kang Kingdom, and the little sister of the owner of the Fangxian Embroidery Tower, were missing.
Ye Jingzhen and Yun Chenglu parted ways in a small town in the southernmost part of Dakang Kingdom.
Yun Chenglu took Miao Yi and continued to chase south, but Ye Jingzhen had a hunch that Yun Ran should have escaped by now. She would not flee to the capital, but would definitely find a way to contact Nan Xuan.
He wanted to stay and start searching for people from this town.
