Yun Jinnian watched Xiu Xinfeng laugh with a cold and grim expression.
Xiu Xinfeng was taken away.
Mrs. Han gently held Yun Jinnian, "Don’t be afraid, mother is with you!"
Even if the road ahead was bumpy, she would accompany her.
Yun Jinnian hugged Mrs. Han back, "Mother, I’m not afraid!"
At that moment, she truly wasn’t afraid.
Yun Chen said a few comforting words before leaving with Mrs. He.
Mrs. Han sat with Yun Jinnian for a long while, but Yun Qi didn’t come, "Go to sleep early, tomorrow morning mother will take you to the Songshan Academy to meet your grand master uncle to see if he will take you in!"
The siblings escorted Mrs. Han out of Niannian Garden. Han Tianci, who hadn’t spoken a word, finally asked, "Sister, is it really such a coincidence?"
Yun Jinnian looked towards Han Tianci, "What do you think?"
"I don’t think it is!"
Yun Jinnian quickly went to the study, wrote a letter, sealed it, and then summoned Hemei and Henuan, "Take this letter to the Prince Rui Residence now. When you are at the side gate, mimic a dog’s bark first three times, then after a while one bark, then three more times, then two more times, and someone will come out. If he asks who you are, say ’An old friend from the valley,’ and if he asks why you didn’t come through the main gate, say there are big dogs at the main gate and he will then take you to see Prince Rui. Remember, you must personally hand the letter to Prince Rui!"
Hemei nodded, taking the instructions seriously.
Carrying the letter, Hemei and Henuan climbed over the wall of the Yun Residence and headed straight to Prince Rui Residence.
It was better for the two to go together to look after each other.
After all, they were both children.
Yun Jinnian then sat by the window waiting...
Han Tianci stood to one side, silent and with a somewhat ugly expression on his face.
If this happened at the Han Family, whoever dared to harm the master would have been killed and thrown into the mass burial grave long ago.
At the side gate of Prince Rui Residence.
"Woof woof woof, woof, woof woof woof, woof woof!" Hemei mimicked a dog’s bark.
A shadowy figure swiftly emerged, making no sound.
"An old friend from the valley!" Hemei responded calmly.
"Why didn’t you use the main gate!"
"There are big dogs at the main gate!"
The shadowy figure looked at the two children, Hemei and Henuan, "Come with me."
Hemei and Henuan were somewhat nervous because they could sense that there were many experts hidden in the darkness, any of whom could instantly take care of the two sisters.
They dared not be careless.
They followed the shadowy figure for a good while before finally arriving at a large courtyard, and then they entered, "Wait here!"
The figure then walked to the entrance and called out, "Your Highness!"
Chu Yu was woken up and angrily shouted, "What is all this racket in the dead of night, what’s going on?"
"An old friend from the valley has come to seek audience!"
Upon hearing this, Chu Yu’s anger subsided.
Yun Jinnian sending someone in the middle of the night clearly meant there was trouble.
"Take them to the study, I will be there shortly!"
Hemei and Henuan were led to the study, and not long after, Chu Yu walked in, "What’s happened to your mistress?"
Hemei took out the letter and handed it to Chu Yu, "The mistress instructed her servant to personally hand it to Your Highness!"
Chu Yu took the letter, studied it carefully, and then said, "Go back and tell your mistress to just be at ease!"
About two hours after Hemei and Henuan left, the General Weiyuan’s Residence in the Capital City was burgled—the priceless Jade Guanyin was stolen, and General Weiyuan led his men in pursuit of the thief...
Xiu Xinfeng was tied up and locked in the firewood shed when a man silently entered, "Tsk tsk tsk, look who it is. How did you end up so wretchedly?"
"Stop taking pleasure in my misfortune; quickly look at this. I can’t feel my arm at all!"
