Just before they were about to descend the mountain, Jiang Qinyu stopped the two children and removed the talismans from their bodies.
“They probably won’t be able to catch up for now, but we have to get down the mountain tonight. You two must stick close to me, understand?” Jiang Qinyu said to the two of them with a serious expression, holding Pan’er in one hand and a flashlight in the other.
Lu Tianbao nodded with a pale face, "I'm holding onto my aunt's clothes, I won't get lost."
The three of them then struggled to walk through the forest and head down the mountain.
Fortunately, they were not far from the foot of the mountain, and soon they emerged from the dense forest.
The flashlight beam shone far, and Jiang Qinyu could vaguely see some figures, so she immediately stopped in her tracks.
“Auntie…” Pan’er gripped her hand tightly in fear.
Lu Tianbao gripped her clothes tightly, his eyes filled with fear.
Jiang Qinyu frowned in thought, then relaxed, turned off the flashlight, and confidently led the two children forward.
Those who would still be coming down the mountain at this time are at least not Jiang Chengyou's group.
On the border, once she reveals her identity, there are very few people who would dare to harm her.
Before she could even get there, she heard a familiar voice calling out from afar.
"Pan'er! Pan'er, where are you?"
Pan'er's eyes suddenly lit up, and she excitedly pointed ahead and said, "Auntie, it's my brother!"
Jiang Qinyu was completely relieved. Just as she was about to reply, she felt a gust of wind brush past her, and then she was pulled into someone's arms.
"Qinqin!" Lu Yanzheng hugged Jiang Qinyu tightly, his voice hoarse and nasal.
Having just escaped the wolf's den, Jiang Qinyu was most concerned about the children's condition. She nudged him and asked, "Why are you here?"
Lu Yanzheng had calmed down by now and looked behind her. "Are the people behind you still there?"
"I don't know either, we just ran out." Jiang Qinyu shook her head honestly.
She was already focused all her energy on escaping with her two children, so how could she possibly pay attention to the situation of that group of people?
Upon hearing this, Lu Yanzheng said, "You all go down the mountain first, I'll go take a look."
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Qinyu nodded, "Then be careful, there are experts among them."
Then she told Lu Yanzheng about the group of people she had observed.
"So it was him." Lu Yanzheng said with a stern face.
Jiang Qinyu looked at him in surprise, "You know that person?"
She only learned a little about the situation from Yu Hanyan and didn't dare to fully confirm the person's identity.
“Yes, it is the Fifth Prince of Western Qiang,” Lu Yanzheng nodded. “This man is narrow-minded, vindictive, ambitious, and extremely jealous.”
Jiang Qinyu asked, puzzled, "Then why did he kidnap me and Pan'er?"
Lu Yanzheng then noticed Lu Tianbao, and frowned slightly. "The village is frantically searching for the child."
Lu Tianbao was previously hated by everyone, but he was still a child, so Madam Ma and Lu Yancai persisted. In addition, Pan'er had also gone missing, so Dingshui Village was now putting aside most other matters to search for the two children.
“Uncle, Brother Tianbao was arrested because he impersonated my brother…” Pan’er suddenly said.
Jiang Qinyu and Shu Fan looked at Lu Tianbao in surprise, their eyes filled with disbelief.
Lu Tianbao felt uncomfortable being stared at like that. "I've just grown up..."
He didn't dare look at Lu Yanzheng and Jiang Qinyu, his gaze fixed elsewhere.
"This isn't the place to talk. You should go back with Qin Shen first," Lu Yanzheng said, squeezing Jiang Qinyu's hand.
Jiang Qinyu was already exhausted, so she didn't say anything more and followed Qin Shen down the mountain with the child.
Lu Yanzheng led most of the people and quickly sped off in the direction Jiang Qinyu pointed.
Meanwhile, Jiang Chengyou and his men were rushing on their way.
"Hurry! All of you, hurry up!" Jiang Chengyou was being protected and ran at the front, shouting back at his men.
That's terrifying!
That woman is terrifying!
Now he finally admits that that woman is someone he can't afford to mess with!
Jiang Chengyou's current state of mind is closely related to what just happened.
Jiang Qinyu had already run away with Pan'er and Lu Tianbao. Jiang Chengyou was woken up and chased after them, just in time to see Jiang Qinyu using a speed talisman to fly away at high speed.
In that instant, Jiang Chengyou was covered in sweat, staring in shock at Jiang Qinyu's retreating figure. After regaining his senses, he immediately ordered his men not to chase after her and to leave overnight.
He came to Dayue because he wanted to use Jiang Qinyu as a powerful weapon to deal with Lu Yanzheng.
But what he didn't expect was that a woman he used to look down on would have such unpredictable and mysterious abilities!
First, it vanished into thin air, then it caused the jade to explode, and then, like a deity in a myth, it flew away swiftly as if riding the clouds.
If he still dares to provoke Jiang Qinyu after all these incidents, then he really has a death wish.
The most fortunate thing now is that they will soon be able to leave the territory of Dayue. There are people he has arranged to meet them in the deep mountains. As long as they meet up with those people, he can return to Xiqiang as quickly as possible.
When Lu Yanzheng caught up with Jiang Chengyou and the others and arrived at their camp, it was already half an hour later.
"General, it looks like those people have already run away. Should we still give chase?"
When they arrived just now, they had already discovered from the clues that those people had chased after Madam and the others, but for some reason they suddenly turned back.
Lu Yanzheng looked northwest and shook his head, saying, "We can't catch up."
He didn't know how Jiang Qinyu escaped with the two children, but he could tell that Jiang Chengyou and the others left in a hurry, without packing many things.
This can only mean that they are fleeing for their lives.
But what could possibly allow them to escape?
Lu Yanzheng lowered his eyes, said nothing more, and soon led his men back.
...
Jiang Qinyu and her group returned to the General's Mansion. Because it was so late, she went back and settled the children in first.
Old Master Chen looked at her with tears streaming down his face, "Madam, you're finally back safe and sound. You have no idea how the General and all of us have been these past few days..."
Whenever he thinks about the anxiety he's been going through these past few days, Uncle Chen can't help but shed tears.
No one knows who spread the news, but everyone close to the General's Mansion knew about it. However, everyone tacitly refrained from publicizing the matter and instead quietly searched for the person in their own way.
They were all alright, they were really anxious, and they were going to great lengths to find people. But the general was different. Who would believe that he hadn't slept for more than seven days?
Seven days! Uncle Chen felt so distressed just thinking about it that he immediately went to complain to Jiang Qinyu.
Jiang Qinyu stood there stunned. "He hasn't slept for seven days?"
"Yes! In order to find his wife, the general goes through all the messages that come his way every night when he returns to the manor, hoping to find useful information among them..."
