Sun Jiao was so moved that her eyes welled up with tears. She felt that all her efforts had not been in vain, and she even thanked God in her heart for letting her find the person in her life with whom she could share joys and sorrows and be buried with in the afterlife.
The next day, the Fourth Prince's consort's invitations were sent out like water, and all the noble ladies in the capital received them, except for Sun Yun, of course.
However, even though she sent an invitation to Sun Yun, she didn't receive it. She encountered trouble ever since the day she sent Prince Yong out of the capital.
“Miss, it seems there’s another group of people besides Second Master’s men,” Ma An said.
In a mountain stream, the water flows gently at your feet, and behind you is a small waterfall, about the width of a palm, dripping down from the cliff.
Although the small waterfall lacks the grandeur to engulf everything and the deafening roar of water, it can keep a few people from dying of thirst for several days.
"Second Uncle is still not giving up." Sun Yun had already pulled out all the hairpins, and without combing her hair, she tied her jet-black hair into a ponytail that hung down her back. No one knew where she learned it, but after swinging the ponytail a few times, she found it too troublesome and then twisted it into a bun, inserted the hairpin, and did it neatly and cleanly.
Banshu always had to worry about her daughter's image, but she couldn't control her. At this moment, she had a crying face. There were people outside conducting a thorough search of the mountain. She didn't dare to say anything and could only anxiously watch from the side.

After leaving the city that day, to avoid attracting attention, Sun Yun escorted him for an extra half mile. As soon as Prince Yong got off the carriage, he rode his horse straight to Chu County. Less than a quarter of an hour after Prince Yong left, assassins who had been lying in ambush along the roadside swarmed in and blocked his way in and out.
Left with no other choice, Sun Yun led her men into the dense forest. The message could not be sent out, all the servants of the Sun family were dead, and the guards of the Prince Yong's mansion did not follow. At this time, she only had Ma Shu, Ma An, Ma Gui and Ma Fu by her side. Although they were all very skilled, they were no match for the enemy's numbers.
