Shen Mingyue had just dealt with the men in black who were harassing her.
When he turned around, he saw the man in black leading the carriage holding Su Qiqi in his arms.
"Qiqi!"
A hint of panic flashed in Shen Mingyue's eyes, and the hand holding the hilt of the sword trembled unconsciously.
The remaining men in black who had not yet died all surrounded the man in black who was holding Su Qiqi, protecting him in the middle.
"If you guys do anything again, this little kid will die here."
The leading man in black put a sharp dagger against Su Qiqi's cheek.
The delicate skin was cut and bright red blood flowed out.
Su Qiqi was so frightened that she dared not move: [Swords have no eyes! Don’t be so cruel! Woo woo woo! I don’t want to die!]
"Don't mess around!"
Shen Mingyue swallowed hard, suppressing the uneasiness and fear in her heart, and forced herself to remain calm: "Everything can be discussed, as long as you release the child!"
"Your Highness, we will meet again."
The man in black sneered, picked up Su Qiqi and others, and jumped into the forest.
The rest of the men in black were responsible for covering the rear.
"Qiqi!"
Shen Mingyue held the sword and wanted to chase after him, but Pei Yi grabbed her.
"This matter is quite strange and bizarre, please don't pursue it, Your Majesty!"
"But Qiqi was taken away by them!"
"You'll only get yourself into trouble if you keep chasing after me!"
Shen Mingyue was anxious, and Pei Yi was even more anxious.
Finally, Shen Mingyue helplessly dropped the sword in her hand, her face filled with self-blame and helplessness.
Lu Qingyuan in the carriage covered her arm and stood up: "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, I'm sorry. It's my fault that I didn't protect Qiqi well."
She looked pale and her voice was weak.
Shen Mingyue hurried forward and touched Lu Qingyuan's arm, pressing down on her shoulder with one hand and holding her arm with the other hand and trying to bend it hard.
Click!
With a crisp sound, the dislocated shoulder was put back in place.
Lu Qingyuan endured the pain and tried to move her arm. Unexpectedly, the arm was not broken.
She couldn't help but whisper, "How strange! Those men in black didn't hurt me. It seems they came here specifically to rob Qiqi."
Pei Yi frowned: "Those men in black seem to know us."
Shen Mingyue said anxiously: "No matter what, let's issue a wanted order first, and then send people to look for her. We must rescue Qiqi!"

Late in the night, when everyone was asleep, several men walked into the inn. One of them was holding a six or seven-month-old baby in his arms.
The waiter was sitting at the counter, leaning against a wooden shelf, with his legs crossed and dozing off.
In the hall, a woman wearing a veiled hat was eating with her head down. Beside her, a four-year-old boy yawned repeatedly.
Several men walked to the table next to the woman and sat down.
The scarred man yelled, "Waiter, bring me a pot of good wine, cut two pounds of beef, and stir-fry a few hot dishes."
No one answered.
Several men looked displeased.
One of them stood up and threw a dart.
The wine jugs behind the counter were smashed to pieces.
There was a loud splash and the wine spilled all over the floor.
The waiter was startled awake. Just as he was about to curse, he looked up and saw several men opposite him with unfriendly faces.
The scarred man shouted impatiently, "Don't you have eyes? Are you still going to do this business?"
The waiter came forward angrily and said, "I'm so sorry, I just dozed off. I'll bring you some dishes to make amends."
The scarred man was still dissatisfied: "I have plenty of money, what do I need from you?"
"Yes, yes, I'm not good at talking. Please don't bear grudges. Please calm down." The waiter was embarrassed and scared, and was a little at a loss.
"Prepare a room upstairs. Also, two pounds of beef, a pot of good wine, and some hot dishes. Be quick! If you keep talking nonsense, I'll chop you into pieces!"
The scarred man said this and kicked the waiter.
The waiter felt pained, but dared not say a word: "Yes, yes, I'll arrange it right away!"
After saying that, he hurried to the kitchen.
The scarred man spat in disdain upon seeing this.
"Take it easy, we have serious business to do." The man holding the child reminded.
The scarred man sat down. "What are you afraid of, Third Brother? We've run so far, those idiots can't catch up. Besides, the emperor shouldn't go to such lengths for this baby."
The woman eating at the next table was slightly stunned when she heard this, and her eyebrows raised slightly.
The boy asked, "Mom, what's wrong?"
The woman shook her head without saying anything and continued eating.
After a while, the waiter brought the wine and beef to the table.
"Please eat first, I will bring the other dishes right away."
After saying that, he hurried into the kitchen again.
Su Qiqi opened her eyes weakly: [It smells so good, I’m so hungry…]
[Since you won't kill me, can you give me something to eat? ]
【If it doesn’t work, give me some water! 】
“Wuwuwu…”
She hummed and patted her belly, hoping to attract the attention of the man in black.
The third child sighed irritably: "Oh, what a hassle, this kid is awake again."
The scarred man said, "Give her some more drugs. Once she passes out, she won't cry anymore."
The third brother shook his head and said, "The child is too young. If he drinks too much medicine, it will easily cause harm. The master said that this child cannot die."
Another person echoed, "Well, just be patient. When we return to Yecheng, we'll get our reward and live freely."
"It's up to you guys, I don't know how to coax a baby anyway!"
The scarred man continued to drink and eat meat in big gulps.
After a while, the waiter brought the hot dishes.
"Waiter, prepare two more kilograms of dry food and a pot of wine for me to take away tomorrow morning."
The woman wearing a veil placed a silver ingot on the table.
The waiter ran over, picked up the silver ingot, weighed it, and said with a smile, "I guarantee it will be arranged properly!"
