Although I haven’t grown teeth yet, I can still try some milk. It would be even better if I could eat some egg custard…】
Xiao Ruyu licked her lips, staring at the meat ordered by the customer next to her, and swallowed softly.
In the past in Medicine King Valley, it was my junior brother who cooked. Although his elixirs caused his death, his cooking skills were really amazing.
I don’t know how good the chefs in the capital are. If I have the chance, it would be great if I could bring my junior brother here to try their food.
Xiao Ruyu let out a long sigh. She was afraid that she could not return to Yaowang Valley, and she didn't know what had happened to her junior brother and master.
Everyone present except Eleven heard what Xiao Ruyu had said just now. Xiao Ru'an suddenly had an idea and spoke hurriedly.
"Why don't we add two more dishes? I suddenly want to try egg custard. By the way, prepare a bowl of goat milk for Yu'er."
Duan Yiheng nodded and handed it to the waiter.
After a while, the waiter of Zui Xiang Lou brought the food to the table, and Xiao Ru'an fed Xiao Ruyu some goat's milk and egg custard.
Xiao Ruyu was very satisfied after eating. Although she only ate a little, it was much better than her wet nurse's milk.
[It would be nice if I could eat meat]
She let out a long sigh. She was just a baby and might not be able to eat meat yet. She could only wait.
After eating and drinking, Xiao Ruyu felt sleepy due to her body's instinct, so she slowly closed her eyes.
Duan Yiling was eating when he suddenly felt some pain in his lower abdomen. He quickly covered his stomach and said to his brothers.
"I feel a little unwell and need to go to the bathroom."
Having said that, Duan Yiling left.
Duan Yiheng also felt discomfort in his lower abdomen, so he withdrew as well.
But they waited for too long and neither of them came back. Xiao Ru'an glanced at Eleven and asked curiously.
"It's almost half an incense stick long, why hasn't he come back yet? Could he have gone back to the Marquis' Mansion?"
Eleven shook his head, "The little princess and His Highness are still here, they won't leave, maybe something happened to them."
Xiao Ru'an also thought so, so he held Xiao Ruyu in his arms and decided to go to the toilet in Zui Xiang Lou to see if they were in trouble.
However, as Xiao Ru'an was leaving the room with Xiao Ruyu in his arms, he was hit on the head with a stick by someone hiding in the dark.
Xiao Ru'an fell softly to the ground, holding Xiao Ruyu in his arms, and secretly said in his heart, "Yu'er, nothing can happen to you..."
Xiao Ru'an felt his eyelids getting heavy and he fainted.
Eleven realized that he was ambushed and hurriedly protected the eldest prince. The man in the dark was tall and did not fight with Eleven. He was extremely fast and knocked the thin Eleven unconscious with just one hand.
He sneered, "You were given cartilage powder just now, but you can still stand up. You are quite capable!"
After saying that, he snatched Xiao Ruyu from Xiao Ru'an's arms.
The man had a face full of flesh. He jumped directly from the window of the private room with a sneer on his face.
The little girl in his arms was born with real signs of growth. It was not difficult to tell that when she grew up, she would be absolutely stunning. Unfortunately, this little girl had offended someone.
He reached out and stroked Xiao Ruyu's cheek, snorting.
"Little girl, you can only blame yourself for having bad luck and offending someone you shouldn't have offended."
Someone paid money to buy the little girl's fortune. He finally got the chance and he couldn't let go of such a chance to make a fortune.
As if sensing the crisis, Xiao Ruyu woke up and saw blood on Shiyi and Xiao Ru'an's faces, and knew that they were injured.
She secretly wondered who wanted to take her life, but she couldn't guess, so the most important thing at this moment was to take care of her life.
"Big brother, wuwuwu, please save Yu'er."
As she spoke, she secretly cast a spell on the eleven Xiao Ru'ans, but before she saw the two of them wake up, she was taken away by the human traffickers.
After the man left Zui Xiang Lou, he avoided the official roads all the way and only walked through the alleys. He had someone waiting for him in Tongfu Lane, so he started running without stopping.
Xiao Ruyu's eyes were filled with anxiety, she didn't have the skills she had in her previous life and she was still a baby now. She could only wait for others to save her. She couldn't just start over like this.
If this is the case, wouldn't it be too bloody?
After Xiao Ruyu was taken away by the human traffickers, Xiao Ru'an struggled to wake up. The cartilage powder made him feel uncomfortable.
Just thinking about his sister's safety, he bit his finger to wake himself up.
He forced himself to stand up despite the discomfort, shook Eleven's body, and spoke in a serious tone.
"Eleven, wake up! The princess has been taken away!"
Eleven's body had been nourished by Xiao Ruyu's spiritual power, but the Chinese medicine was too strong, so he hasn't woken up yet.
Without having time to think too much, the eldest prince hurriedly left Zui Xiang Lou and thought about the escape route from a human perspective.
Finally, he avoided crowded places and started walking towards the small alley. He was in a hurry to leave the palace today and did not bring any guards with him.
He was normally well-pampered, but after just a cup of tea, his body began to feel unable to bear it.
He was about to go to the authorities to report the case when he suddenly heard his sister's voice.
[There are so many children. Why are there so many abducted babies in the Taoist temple? Does the Taoist temple make a living by abducting children?]
[Is this guy unreasonable? How can he cover my mouth with a handkerchief? He is inhumane! ]
[I don’t know if you brothers can find me. I really like you brothers…]
Xiao Ru'an listened to the familiar voice, and his original anxiety gradually calmed down.
Based on the locations of the key words Xiao Ruyu mentioned, the most famous place in the capital city came to his mind, which was Yuqing Temple.
Speaking of which, Yuqing Temple was built ten years ago by a noble lady in the capital. She did not want to get married so she became a spinster. Later, she entered a Taoist temple and ate vegetarian food and chanted Buddhist scriptures every day.
Because of her story, countless women from the capital went to the Taoist temple.
Xiao Ru'an had a bold idea in his mind. After all, there are missing cases in the capital every year, especially missing girls.
He had heard his father say that most of the missing persons were babies or young women, and that their endings were not very good.
If it can be sold and the price can be negotiated, it would be good, but if it cannot be sold or no one wants it, the ending that awaits will definitely be very cruel.
Either a hand or a leg is broken, or the body is mutilated.
Among these missing women, there is one coincidence: before they disappeared, they all went to Yuqing Temple to worship.
Xiao Ru'an took off the jade pendant he was carrying, then took out a handkerchief, bit his finger, wrote a cry for help on it, and left some specific clues.
I just hope that the government officials will see this and send troops as soon as possible.
Afterwards, he stuffed the jade pendant and handkerchief to an old woman passing by and left in a hurry.
He didn't dare to stop, fearing that if he was a second late, something would happen to his sister. He gathered all his strength and ran towards Yuqing Temple, surpassing his own limits.
*
The place where Xiao Ruyu was located was the Taoist temple of Yuqing Temple.
Although the woman in the lead was not young, it was obvious that she must have been very beautiful when she was young.
