The day's rest time passed quickly, and all kinds of supplies were ready!
On the third day, Yun Yiheng and Yun Yijie kowtowed to Yun Xuanmo and Li and said goodbye. Then, everyone in the Yun Mansion, led by Yun Xuanmo, personally sent the old lady to the carriage!
Along the way, Yun Qianmeng rode in the same car with the old lady. Seeing that Yun Qianmeng was thinking about her in everything, and thinking that her two grandchildren would need the help of the Prince of Fuguo's Mansion in the future, the old lady treated Yun Qianmeng with an even more unusual attitude. After a few days of getting along, the relationship between the two became more harmonious. To outsiders, they all thought that Yun Qianmeng must have been the granddaughter who grew up under the old lady's nose!
On the fourth day, there was still one day's drive to return to the Prime Minister's Mansion. This time, Guard Liu was more careful and specially chose a different inn from last time. He booked the entire inn and then welcomed the old lady and several young ladies to stay there!
After the previous incident, Nanny Wang served Yun Ruoxue personally all day long, fearing that the escaped Zhao Ming would take the opportunity to take revenge on them!
At this time, the killer who was ambushed along the way by the second master of the Su Mansion disappeared without a trace. This made Wang Ma a little uneasy during this period, and she always felt that something important was happening!
But on second thought, Guard Liu is on such a tight defensive stance tonight, Zhao Ming will surely not be so foolish as to fall into his trap. Besides, the old lady is here, so the eldest lady probably won't dare to blatantly plot to frame her own sister!
Thinking of this, Nanny Wang's heart, which had been tense all the way, finally relaxed a little. But to be on the safe side, she still asked the maid to set up a simple bed next to Yun Ruoxue's bed, and she stayed by Yun Ruoxue's side!
However, in the middle of the night when everyone had gone to bed, a sharp cry for help suddenly came from Yun Ruoxue's room, "Help... Help... Someone come quickly..."
Everyone was suddenly awakened from their sleep. In the silent night, they heard the sound of a door being pushed open forcefully. The door frame slammed against the wall with a loud bang, startling everyone so much that they hurriedly put on their coats, not even having time to fix their hair, before rushing into Yun Ruoxue's room...
"Guard Liu, hurry up, the second young lady has been kidnapped, go after her!" Everyone was frightened by Nanny Wang's panic-stricken face, and when they heard her screams, they became even more flustered!
Guard Liu immediately led the servants around him and chased in the direction pointed by Nanny Wang. Seeing this, Yun Yiheng and his brother also joined the pursuit!
The old lady was also scared out of her wits at this moment. No matter how much she disliked Yun Ruoxue, she was, after all, a respectable young lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion. If something happened this time, not to mention that Yi Heng and Yi Jie's careers would be hindered, Yun Xuanzhi would probably resent her as his mother!
Everyone was terrified. The old lady was no longer at ease and sent Yun Qianmeng and Yun Yan back to their respective rooms. She told them to stay by her side obediently. Only then did she calm down and shouted at Nanny Wang, who was about to go out to look for someone, "Old woman, hurry back and explain what's going on!"
Wang Ma was frightened by the old lady's loud shout. She immediately took back her steps and reluctantly knelt in front of the old lady, crying, "Old lady, I was half asleep when I suddenly saw a dark figure carrying a bundle. I subconsciously looked towards the young lady's bed, but found that the dark figure carried the young lady and the quilt and jumped out of the window! Old lady, please help our young lady! She lives in the backyard and there is no way she would have any grudges with anyone. This must be someone deliberately framing her. Please find out the mastermind behind this and give our young lady justice!"
After saying that, Nanny Wang knelt down and crawled to the old lady's feet, hugged the old lady's legs and cried loudly, making the old lady, who was already angry, even more furious!
Yun Qianmeng's face was filled with worry, and a chill flashed through the depths of her overly bright eyes. There was a hint of coldness in her gaze as she looked at Nanny Wang!
As expected of Su Qing's wet nurse, she had experienced many things in this mansion, and even her reaction speed was unmatched by ordinary people. She did not mention Yun Ruoxue's reputation and chastity at all in her words. Instead, she quickly diverted everyone's attention and made everyone focus on the murderer!
Nanny Wang saw the old lady lost in thought and wanted to continue speaking, but she felt a cold light staring at her back, which made her shudder all over and a chill rose in her heart. She turned her head and saw Yun Qianmeng quietly looking at her. Then she said with concern, "Grandma, blaming Nanny Wang now will not help! Guard Liu will definitely find my sister. Let's think about how to explain to father! As an elder sister, I failed to take good care of my sister, and my sister's reputation has been humiliated. I am truly to blame!"
As she spoke, Yun Qianmeng's eyes suddenly turned red, and a tear slid down her face. The pain in her eyes made people unable to blame her!
Upon seeing this, Nanny Wang felt a surge of anger in her heart. It was obvious that the eldest daughter was behind all this, but now she was pretending in front of the old lady. Especially what she said just now seemed to be full of care, but every word was sharp and piercing. The second daughter's reputation was ruined in an instant by the eldest daughter's sarcasm!
The old lady, however, pulled Yun Qianmeng over with a distressed look on her face, saying earnestly, "Grandmother knows you're worried about Ruoxue, but you should also take care of yourself! What happened to Ruoxue was because these maids and servants didn't take good care of her. It has nothing to do with you. Why should you be so sad over a girl whose reputation has been damaged?"
Nanny Wang was about to open her mouth to refute, but when she heard the old lady say this, her face instantly turned pale, and her body fell backward uncontrollably, fainting...
"Madame Mi, quickly help Madame Wang go back to her room to rest. She is old and can't stand being frightened!" Yun Qianmeng gave Madame Mi a look, and Madame Mi immediately understood. She and Mu Chun helped Madame Wang out of the room!
Afterwards, Yun Qianmeng personally served a cup of hot tea to the old lady, and she and sister Yun Yan stayed quietly in the room!
After a sleepless night, at dawn, there was finally movement outside the inn, but the old lady didn't even raise her eyelids, and just kept turning the Buddhist beads in her hand!
A moment later, there was a noise at the door, and Yuan Qingzhou came in quickly, holding the pale, purple-lipped, trembling Yun Ruoxue. As he walked, he shouted to the maid inside, "Quickly pour a cup of hot tea for Sister Xue'er to warm her up!"
"Who dares!" But at this time, the old lady who had been patient all night spoke, her words were seven parts cruel and three parts heartless, especially after seeing the strange man holding Yun Ruoxue in his arms, the hand holding the Buddhist beads slammed the table hard, making a loud noise, scaring all the maids and nannies in the room so much that they dared not make a sound!
"Mother Mi, go and help the second young lady to the bed. She has been cold all night. Mu Chun, go and make a bowl of ginger soup for her!" At this time, Yun Qianmeng looked at Yun Ruoxue who was curled up in Yuan Qingzhou's arms with loving eyes, and gave instructions to the people beside her in a gentle voice!
After hearing Yun Qianmeng's voice and seeing Aunt Mi quickly take Yun Ruoxue from Yuan Qingzhou's arms, the old lady's expression improved slightly. However, her eyes, full of disgust, continued to stare at Yun Ruoxue. Then she said in a deep voice, "Yi Heng, Yi Jie, and Guard Liu stay. Everyone else, get out!"
Yuan Qingzhou was attracted by Yun Qianmeng's beauty, but when he heard the old lady's order to leave, he could only be pushed out reluctantly by the servants of the Prime Minister's Mansion!
After everyone else had left, the old lady's sharp gaze instantly swept towards Yun Ruoxue, who was trembling as she walked towards the bed, and suddenly shouted, "Kneel down!"
