Jiang Ruixue was in a dilemma. All the people in front of her were concerned about her safety. If she didn't appreciate it, it would be considered as ungrateful. But she couldn't just sit in the house and face endless worry and waiting.

"Everyone, let's get up!" Jiang Ruixue wanted to pull Mingyue up, but Mingyue held Jiang Ruixue tightly and refused to get up.

"If the young lady doesn't agree, this servant will not get up!"

Mingyue stretched her neck and looked up at Jiang Ruixue with tearful eyes. Even if the young lady hated her from now on, she would still keep her.

Although Jiang Ruixue felt helpless, she had no intention of being angry or blaming her. She knew Mingyue was afraid. After coming back last time, Mingyue had become a frightened bird and could not stand to hear any danger.

Seeing Mingyueru's stubbornness, Jiang Ruixue sighed softly and said in a feigned anger, "Mingyue! You are getting bolder and bolder now. You don't even listen to me and you even learn to threaten me?"

Mingyue was not afraid of Jiang Ruixue's sharp tongue but kind heart. She kowtowed heavily and said to Jiang Ruixue, "Yes, I am just daring. Please stay, young lady!"

After Jiang Ruixue came here, she forbade Mingyue to kneel and kowtow to her anymore. The sound of Mingyue's forehead hitting the ground just now was like a blow to Jiang Ruixue's heart. Jiang Ruixue looked at Mingyue with red eyes, feeling a tingling pain in her heart.

"You..." Jiang Ruixue didn't know how to respond for a moment. "It seems that I indulge you too much..."

"Then please indulge me again, young lady!" Mingyue said as she was about to kowtow again, but Jiang Ruixue grabbed her. Mingyue's forehead had already turned red from that kowtow.

"Okay, get up!" Jiang Ruixue wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and touched the red envelope on Mingyue's forehead.

"Hiss..." Mingyue felt pain, with joy in her eyes, "Miss, did you agree?"

"I agree. You have threatened me, girl. Since you are so capable, you can take them with you to get Chu Hua back for me."

"Yes, miss!"

Mingyue burst into laughter and stood up using her hands and feet. "I will do my best."

Jiang Ruixue couldn't help laughing when she saw Mingyue crying and laughing. She raised her hand to wipe the tears from Mingyue's face and patted her shoulder, "Go!"

"Yes!" Mingyue responded, turned around and called out a few maids to stay in the mansion to protect Jiang Ruixue, and the rest all followed Mingyue out to look for people.

These people have been trained by Jiang Ruixue for several months and have shown initial results. They can even fight with Mingyue for more than ten rounds.

The ordinary guards in the mansion were no match for them, so Jiang Ruixue was not too worried about so many people going out together.

All the other servants and guards followed the butler out to look for people.

After everyone in the yard disappeared outside the gate, Jiang Ruixue turned back to the inner courtyard and told the maids to guard outside, "You just stay in the yard. I'll go back to the house to rest for a while. If there is any news, notify me immediately."

"Yes, Miss!" The maid said obediently. After Jiang Ruixue entered the room, she carefully closed the door for her.

Seeing that the door was closed, Jiang Ruixue quickly went to the closet and took out the martial arts clothes she wore when practicing martial arts. She took off her clothes and put on the martial arts clothes. She also took out the long sword that Lu Mingcheng made for her and held it in her hand.

He opened the window at the back, turned over, and his figure instantly disappeared into the night.

She couldn't wait any longer. Instead of wasting time with Mingyue and the others in the front yard, it would be better to send them out early and she would sneak out so that no one would be delayed.

I don’t know what Chuchuhua’s current situation is like. The more people look for it, the more hope there will be.

Jiang Ruixue went to the city gate, which had already been closed at this time. Fortunately, the guards from the Third Prince's Mansion went to Zhou Mansion in advance to greet Lord Zhou. When the guards at the city gate heard that they were people from their families, they opened the gate and let them in.

When Jiang Ruixue arrived at the city gate, Lu Mingcheng was leading his guards out of the city.

Jiang Ruixue came here on foot, so naturally she couldn't ride as fast as them. Seeing that they were about to leave the city, she hurriedly called out to him, "Second Prince!"

Although Jiang Ruixue addressed Lu Mingcheng by his name in private, she still called him the Second Prince when outsiders were present, as the royal majesty could not be disrespected.

Lu Mingcheng was walking in front. When he heard a familiar voice calling him, he quickly turned around to look.

Jiang Ruixue ran up from the back of the team. She was wearing a black outfit today, which gave her a heroic feeling.

Lu Mingcheng was unsure at first because Jiang Ruixue seldom wore tight clothes in front of him, and it was the first time he saw her in black.

"Rui Xue?"

Jiang Ruixue walked up to Lu Mingcheng and said, "It's me!"

"Why are you alone?" Jiang Ruixue looked out of breath and had walked here. Mingyue, who was always with her, was not there either.

"Let's go out first and talk on the way!" It wouldn't be convenient for the two of them to block the city gate and chat.

Lu Mingcheng borrowed a horse from the city guard for Jiang Ruixue to ride, and the two walked side by side out of the city.

Someone from the Third Prince's Mansion told the two outside the city which directions the people who had come before had gone. The two chose a place and led their people to search in the distance.

The guard who had just pointed the way said that the people from the Jiang residence had gone to another direction. Lu Mingcheng looked around and questioned Jiang Ruixue, "Why didn't you go with the people from your residence? Do you know how dangerous it is to go out of the city alone at night?"

"I know, I have my reasons too!" She didn't want to make them worry, but if he didn't come out, she would be more worried.

"Give me a reasonable explanation!"

"Mingyue won't let me go out, so I can only wait until they leave and then sneak out."

When Lu Mingcheng heard this, he realized that Mingyue would not allow Jiang Ruixue to go out after dark. "Mingyue, this is for your own good!"

"I know, but I can't stay in the mansion."

"It's a good thing we met! Otherwise, if you went out of the city alone, you might encounter some danger."

"I know there are people here. I won't run around alone. I heard that the person who took Chu Hua away this time is from Xiliang. Do you know what happened?"

"You probably don't know that the shopkeeper Qi in the first painting is from Xiliang."

"What? Isn't he Lu Mingqian's friend? Does Lu Mingqian know his identity? Why does Lu Mingqian let a person from Xiliang stay with Chu Hua?" What was Lu Mingqian's intention, that he actually arranged for a person from Xiliang to stay with Chu Hua.

"Lu Mingqian knew that Qi Muhe was not a threat to us. Lu Mingqian arranged for him to be the shopkeeper of Chuhua in order to protect both Qi Muhe and Chuhua at the same time."

"So those people are Master Qi's enemies?"

"Yes and no." Lu Mingcheng was not sure because he didn't know the whole story.

"What do you mean by yes and no? Explain it clearly!" Jiang Ruixue hated it most when people played tricks on her or kept her in suspense.
