Chapter 58 Xu Yu escaped
The dressing table was also empty, obviously all the things had been taken away.
"Didn't she tell me to run? Why did she run away?"
Fu Danjun was angry and confused, but Lan Fang smiled bitterly and said, "She's always moody. One day she treats me as a friend, and the next she's madly jealous. One moment she's talking about sisterly things, and the next she's playing it safe."
Fu Danjun knew how important Xu Yu was to Xie Changsheng, so he hurriedly said, "Tell a few servants to go out quietly and look for her without alerting anyone else."
Lan Fang agreed to do it, and Fu Danjun returned to the room to wait for news.
But when he waited until the middle of the night, there was no movement at all. He couldn't help but feel furious: "This Xu Yu, isn't he trying to kill me?"
Lan Fang had no choice but to persuade him: "He ran away secretly. What can we do? We can only explain it to the emperor in the future."
Fu Danjun sighed and thought that this was the only way, and comforted himself that maybe Xu Yu had gone out for something.
Maybe she will be back soon. She has a deep sisterly bond with me and won't be so reckless.
However, two days passed and there was no sign of Xu Yu, and two maids came to the palace.
They said they were ordered to bring Xu Yu into the palace, so Fu Danjun could only truthfully explain that Xu Yu had already run away.
Yuan was busy preparing for departure and didn't bother to ask about Xu Yu when she saw him.
In the middle of the night, Xie Changsheng pounced on the bed and strangled Fu Danjun's neck: "You're courting death!"
Fu Danjun woke up from her dream, and faced the tyrant's angry red eyes, feeling angry and helpless: "If you cherish her, why don't you take her to the palace? Now you are pretending to be affectionate."
Xie Changsheng continued to stare: "Do you believe that I will wipe out your entire clan?"
When Fu Danjun heard this, tears fell: "Just strangle me to death, I don't want to live anymore."
Xie Changsheng chuckled again: "Xu Yu is still looking for you. If he can't find you, then you'd rather die."
Fu Danjun suddenly realized that there was indeed a possibility that Xu Yu could not be found.
The world outside is so big that even if Xie Changsheng could search every corner, it would take him ten or eight years.
But I have to live! I don't want to lose my life for such a thing.
Then he suddenly had an idea and said, "If the emperor kills me, how can I explain to the people in the northern border that you have granted me a marriage?"
Xie Changsheng couldn't help but laugh: "You dare to threaten me?"
Fu Danjun continued, "My death is not a pity, but the emperor's words are as good as gold, and I cannot break my promise."
Xie Changsheng looked at her resentfully: "In fact, I suspect that you deliberately hid Xu Yu."
Fu Danjun rolled his eyes and said helplessly: "You can doubt it, but you must have evidence."
Xie Changsheng grabbed her neck again and warned her: "Don't use the marriage as a shield. I can kill you and put the blame on someone else. That way, the people of Northern Frontier won't be able to blame me."
Fu Danjun was suddenly speechless and too lazy to argue anymore.
Emperors have always been fickle, let alone this capricious tyrant. Why should we have any expectations of him?
In the end, Xie Changsheng didn't rush to strangle her and just walked away.
Fu Danjun didn't sleep all night and felt extremely sad.
She placed her hopes on Wanyan Qi again, secretly praying that her method of escaping death would work and nothing would go wrong.
Once you have regained yourself, you can be free from the tyrant forever.
On the second day, Fu Xiaoshan and Cui Wanjun prepared to set off.
Yuan cried her heart out, and only when she was about to leave did she realize how much she missed Fu Danjun.
Jin Zhao also kept crying, so Fu Danjun had to cheer herself up and say some auspicious words: "Anyway, we will meet again in the future. It's just a temporary separation."
The carriage left the city. Fu Danjun stretched his neck but couldn't see anything anymore, so he walked back.
Lan Fang sighed with emotion: "Mrs. Yuan is a person with a conscience, much better than that Xu."
Fu Danjun laughed and said: "Now that things have come to this, let's think about how to get rid of Wanyan Qi first."
She had previously told Lan Fang about her plan to escape.
So Lan Fang immediately reminded: "We are on the way, let's go to Mr. Qiao to get some fake death medicine."
Qiao Yishan was busy studying when he heard about the need for fake death medicine: "Why do we need this and what is it for?"
Fu Danjun could only laugh and say, "It was the eunuchs in the palace who asked me for it. Maybe the eunuchs needed to fake their own death."
Qiao Yishan thought this statement was absurd, but he didn't ask any more questions.
Fu Danjun got a small bottle and took it home, but his carriage was forced to stop on the way.
The cars in front were parked for dozens of meters. I heard that the Royal Guards were searching for someone. I don’t know who was missing.
Fu Danjun lifted the curtain and looked out, and found that the royal guards were exactly the same as those in the emperor's bedroom, which meant that they were sent by the emperor.
Could it be that the Imperial Guards were dispatched for Xu Yu?
Fu Danjun returned home after dark.
The servants ran out in panic, saying that a group of soldiers had turned the house upside down.
Fu Danjun ran in and saw that everything was in pieces.
Lan Fang whispered, "Maybe it's the Imperial Guards."
Fu Danjun couldn't help but frown, thinking that Xie Changsheng was going too far.
The Royal Guards were in a state of unrest and panic because of their search for a woman.
Then she asked Tietou to lead the guards to close the gate.
The house was tidied up again, and another servant came to say that Wanyan's envoy had delivered a betrothal gift, but it was hidden in time and was not destroyed by the royal guards.
Fu Danjun was curious about what kind of betrothal gift Wanyan Qi would give him.
When the servants carried it over, they found it was a box of top-quality silk and a box of gold ingots.
Next is a pair of geese in a cage.
Lan Fang was confused: "What does this wild goose mean?"
Fu Danjun burst out laughing: "Silly girl, the wild goose is one of the six ceremonies and an indispensable part of the betrothal gift."
Lan Fang was shocked: "What? Why wasn't it there when the Marquis sent the betrothal gifts?"
Fu Danjun smiled bitterly and said, "The betrothal gifts sent by the Marquisate were incomplete, so my parents didn't pursue the matter. Besides, our Dagan Kingdom also allows incomplete betrothal gifts. Wanyan Jun is from the northern border, and they were afraid that we would think he didn't know the etiquette, so they sent it."
Lan Fang couldn't help but clap his hands and laugh, saying, "This Wanyan envoy is a hundred times more capable than Lord Lu. I imagine these wild geese aren't hard to find, nor are they too expensive to buy. Why didn't the Marquisate send them as a gift?"
Fu Danjun suddenly woke up: "Yes, it doesn't cost much money, it's obvious that they are not sincere."
After saying that, he called Tietou over and let the goose out of the cage and fed it well.
The next day, Fu Danjun got up very late.
The palace nanny came again and asked her to enter the palace.
Fu Danjun's scalp tightened, fearing that the tyrant would make things difficult for him again because of Xu Yu's matter.
"Madam, have you heard that the Emperor sent the Imperial Guards to look for someone?"
Aunt Liu smiled and said, "Of course I know. Xu Yu has already been found."
Fu Danjun was quite surprised. He had hoped that Xu Yu could escape far away and regain his freedom.
Now that the Emperor has captured her, he still doesn’t know how he’s going to torture her.
Lan Fang couldn't help but say, "The Emperor has already found the Xu lady, so why does he want our young lady to enter the palace? Could it be that Miss Xu has said something bad about our young lady?"
Nanny Wang was in a bad mood: "We are all servants, how can we know so much? Just go quickly."
Fu Danjun dressed up and changed her clothes.
Then he secretly gave Lan Fang a few of the fake death pills: "Take this, just in case."
Lan Fang almost shed tears, thinking about how difficult life was for her and the young lady.
Fu Danjun warned him again: "If I don't survive, don't think about revenge, try to escape from the palace and return to your hometown in Jiangnan."
Lan Fang was reluctant to do so, but she had to agree: "I understand, miss, don't worry."
Fu Danjun had a bad feeling that Xie Changsheng might regret arranging the marriage.
In order not to break his promise and prevent himself from falling into Wanyan Qi's hands, he might kill himself.
