Lu Yuan and his men did not tell the escort team about Li Han's capture, so the guards were still resting there. The reason Lu Yuan gave them was that Li Han and Li Shu wanted to stroll around and they would set off after the two princesses had had enough.
Lu Yuan's words did not arouse the suspicion of the guards. After all, Li Han and Li Shu's personalities were well known in Li Country, and it was indeed possible for them to wander around and have fun on the way to other countries.
After explaining the reason, Lu Yuan said that he still had to accompany and protect the two princesses and left. What Lu Yuan didn't know was that Tuoba Jun had been watching him from the side and quietly followed him.
So when Lu Yuan took Li Shu to find Li Han, Tuoba Jun followed behind them, but they didn't know it. When Lu Yuan went deep into the enemy camp to gather information, not only Li Shu acted willfully, but after seeing Li Shu acting on his own, Tuoba Jun also followed him. After all, she was also worried about Li Han.
Tuoba Jun actually believed in his own abilities very much. He thought that even if he couldn't save Li Han by himself, he could at least help Lu Yuan and the others. Unfortunately, Tuoba Jun was discovered earlier than Li Shu.
"What bad luck!" Tuoba Jun whispered to himself.
After being discovered, Tuoba Jun ran away without thinking, but as Tuoba Jun herself said, she was really unlucky today. When people are unlucky, even drinking cold water will get stuck in their teeth. Tuoba Jun turned around and ran, but she didn't expect to run in front of the man.
So, Li Han was caught and became a tool to threaten Li Han and others.
"Why is Tuoba Jun here?" After seeing Tuoba Jun, Lu Yuan's eyes suddenly widened and he muttered to himself.
Lu Yuan was stunned for a moment. The person who had been constantly appearing in his mind suddenly appeared in front of him, and in such a dangerous situation. Lu Yuan's heart was confused and he lost his composure for a moment.
"Don't hurt her. If you dare to touch a hair on her head, I will never forgive you!" Lu Yuan said sternly.
The other party snorted coldly, very disdainfully, "You won't forgive me? If I want to do something to her, what can you do!" As the man said this, he touched Tuoba Jun and rubbed his hands on Tuoba Jun's face with a provocative look.
"How dare you..." Lu Yuan's eyes suddenly flashed with fire and he was very angry. He felt like he was going to rush forward in the next second. Fortunately, Li Han stopped her because Li Han knew that the other party wanted to deliberately provoke Lu Yuan, and then find his weakness and defeat him in one fell swoop.
Tuoba Jun was also very upset about that person touching her. After all, even if she became a hostage, she was still the third princess of the Western Regions. With her self-esteem and pride, she could not stand being treated like this.
But this time Tuoba Jun held back. Even though she had the ability to save herself, she still wanted to see how Lu Yuan would react to her in this situation. She wanted to use this to test whether Lu Yuan had her in his heart. However, seeing how excited and nervous Lu Yuan was, Tuoba Jun was very satisfied.
"It seems that this woman is very important to you. I didn't expect you are such a lovesick person. You can save her, but you have to exchange your most precious thing for her. It's fair to exchange one thing for another. If you can't bear to part with her, then I will take this woman. You can find another one, it's not a loss!" The man laughed very obscenely, and Lu Yuan found it particularly harsh.
"Take your dirty hands away from me!" Lu Yuan growled, gritting his teeth.
No matter how angry Lu Yuan was now, in order to ensure Tuoba Jun's safety, Lu Yuan had to compromise and did not dare to act rashly. His fists, which were originally clenched tightly with veins exposed, were helplessly lowered.
"I came from the martial arts world, alone, and I don't have anything precious. The only thing that is worth some money may be this!" Lu Yuan said as he took out a jade pendant from his arms.
This jade pendant is of top quality in terms of both the fineness of its carving and its color. It is not an ordinary vulgar object. Li Han couldn't help but marvel at it as she watched from the side. This jade pendant is even better than the ones in the Li Kingdom's court. She didn't expect that Lu Yuan would have such a thing. Moreover, such items are generally used by nobles and royal families to show their status. This made her even more suspicious of Lu Yuan's identity.
Li Han asked, "Lu Yuan, what about this jade pendant?"
Lu Yuan carefully stroked the jade pendant in his hand, his eyes a little lonely. "I don't know where this jade pendant came from. I only know that since I woke up from amnesia, I have had this jade pendant on me. I have been carrying it with me for so many years. I have always believed that this jade pendant is related to my memory. I thought that one day I would be able to find the memory that I lost. But now..."
Lu Yuan's voice became smaller and smaller. Li Han and Tuoba Jun looked at his lonely figure. For some reason, their hearts also tightened. They didn't expect Lu Yuan to have such an experience. That period must have been very painful. They felt a little sorry for him and didn't know how he managed to get through that time.
No matter what Li Yuan's identity is, just from this incident, he is ultimately a poor man. At this moment, Li Han even regretted bringing Lu Yuan here. If it weren't for this incident, he might not have remembered these sad things.
After hearing about Lu Yuan's life story, Tuoba Jun felt sorry for him. Thinking of his loneliness over the years, he secretly decided that he must give him endless warmth in the future and never let him experience that pain again.
"Why is a grown man hesitating like a woman? It's just a jade pendant. If you don't want to give it to me, then don't give it to me!" The man was very annoyed by Lu Yuan's hesitation and turned to Tuoba Jun and said, "Little girl, it seems that in the eyes of that man, that broken jade pendant is more important. It's better not to have a man like him. Why don't you follow me? I guarantee you will have a good life!"
Tuoba Jun ignored him but rolled her eyes in her heart. She hated this kind of self-righteous man the most. She snorted disdainfully and looked at Lu Yuan quietly.
Then Lu Yuan said, "Here's the jade pendant for you!" Then he threw the jade pendant over.
Seeing that the jade pendant was about to fall into the hands of others, which was extremely precious to Lu Yuan, Tuoba Jun could not bear it any longer. He realized that his ridiculous behavior could be stopped, so he took advantage of the opportunity when the man took the jade pendant and kicked back, breaking free from the restraints and successfully saving himself.
Although he managed to escape, Tuoba Jun did not think about escaping immediately to ensure his own comfort. Instead, his mind was full of Lu Yuan's jade pendant. When he was about to take the jade pendant back, the man suddenly knelt down.
Tuoba Jun was shocked by the action before him. He only saw the man touching Lu Yuan's jade pendant with both hands and muttered, "How is it possible? How could he have a royal jade pendant?"
