"I don't know what you are talking about. Let my wife and children go immediately!" Xia Boqing shouted.

"Your Highness, what should we do?" Qi Zhen jumped out from the front of the car.

"Let Luo Jiang drive by himself, and you take care of them and catch up as soon as possible." It was already dark, and Chu Xingyue didn't want to delay.

Luo Jiang drove away, Wei Zhiying yelled in the car for Xia Boqing to run away. Xia Boqing hurried to chase him, but was stopped by Qi Zhen. Qi Zhen drew his knife and swung it at Xia Boqing, who was no match for him. After dodging a few moves, he was slashed on the shoulder. The two young men also rushed forward, but were kicked to the ground by Qi Zhen one by one.

Seeing Xia Boqing injured and bleeding, knowing that he could not chase Chu Xingyue anymore, Qi Zhen did not make another move. He climbed onto Xia Boqing's horse and chased Chu Xingyue.

The two boys carried Xia Boqing on their backs and walked towards a nearby house.

In the carriage, Wei Zhiying didn't know what was going on with Xia Boqing, so she screamed anxiously and then banged on the carriage wall. The banging sound woke up Xiaobao, and the child immediately started crying out of fear.

Chu Xingyue frowned and said sinisterly: "If he makes any more noise, I will throw him to death!"

Wei Zhiying was so frightened that she shuddered. She didn't dare to make a sound. She patted Xiaobao gently and fed him milk, but she was worried about Xia Boqing.

After a while, Qi Zhen caught up with them. Chu Xingyue didn't ask anything, and Qi Zhen didn't say anything either. Wei Zhiying wanted to ask, but when she saw Chu Xingyue's eyes, she held back the words that were about to come out of her mouth. She didn't know what happened to Xia Boqing, and she was extremely flustered. In the end, she couldn't help but ask: "What did you do to my brother Qing?"

"Qi Zhen, tell her!" Chu Xingyue said softly.

"Your Highness, Miss Wei's husband was injured by me." Qi Zhen replied.

Wei Zhiying couldn't sit still any longer. She cried, "Stop the car, stop the car. I want to go find Bo Qing!"

Chu Xingyue raised her foot and clamped it around her neck, sneering, "Tell me who the woman next to Chu Xingluo is, and I'll let you off the bus."

Wei Zhiying was choked by him and was unable to breathe. She was anxious and angry, and her blood rushed to her heart and she fainted.

Chu Xingyue cursed, checked her breath, and felt relieved when she found that she was not dead.

After walking for a while, they arrived at Yunjun City.

"Your Highness, where are you going?" Luo Jiang's voice came from the front.

Chu Xingyue thought for a moment and said, "Let's go back to the palace." He had thought about going to Prince Jing's mansion to confront the fake Wei Zhiying, but then he changed his mind and thought it would be inappropriate for him to go there like this. What if he was detained by them? It would be better to go to the palace tomorrow morning. Even if Chu Xingluo didn't know that he was marrying a fake Wei Zhiying, the fake Wei Zhiying and the Xiangfu would not be able to escape the charge of deceiving the emperor. If the Xiangfu fell, the General's Mansion would not risk speaking for Chu Xingluo. After all, Chu Xingluo had no relationship with the real Wei Zhiying. It was really a pleasure to get rid of Chu Xingluo's left and right arms in one go!

Back at Prince Xuan's mansion, Chu Xingyue picked up Wei Zhiying's child and walked in front, while Qi Zhen picked up Wei Zhiying and followed behind. They arrived at a room and put the mother and child on the bed.

Chu Xingyue ordered Qi Zhen to go to the kitchen to bring some food. He had to stay here and not let Wei Zhiying make any mistakes.

After finishing his meal, he ordered Luo Jiang to find some servants to guard the windows and door of the room. Still feeling that it was not enough, he asked Qi Zhen to find all his assassins, as he was worried that Xia Boqing would inform the prime minister's residence.

It was he who told Qi Zhen not to kill Xia Boqing and the other two. He wanted to expose the fake Wei Zhiying in front of all the ministers and cut off Chu Xingluo's support. At this critical moment, he naturally couldn't give anyone a handle and kill people for no reason.

After treating his wound, Xia Boqing rushed to Yunjun City without caring about the pain. Because Qi Zhen had ridden away one of his horses, he asked two of his men to go back to Yunzhou.

When they arrived at the prime minister's residence, it was already midnight. The doorman knew him but didn't know that his daughter had married him. When he heard that he wanted to see Prime Minister Wei and his son, the doorman said impatiently: "What are you thinking? Who gave you the face to disturb the prime minister and his son in the middle of the night?"

Xia Boqing was frustrated and extremely anxious, but he couldn't tell the truth. Just when he was at a loss, he saw someone coming over with a lantern and asked, "What are you arguing about in the middle of the night?"

Xia Boqing recognized Chang'an's voice and shouted as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw: "Brother Chang'an, I am Xia Boqing. I have something important to tell you. Take me to see the Prime Minister and the Young Master!"

Chang'an was surprised when he heard this. The young master had just returned in the daytime, and Xia Boqing had rushed over from Yunzhou in the middle of the night. Could it be that something had happened to the young lady? He quickly asked the doorman to let the person in, and took Xia Boqing to find Wei Jinghe.

Arriving at Wei Jinghe's courtyard, Chang'an called out, "Young Master, Young Master!"

Lu Qing'er woke up when she heard the voice. She pushed Wei Jinghe and said, "Chang'an is calling you."

"What do you want from me in the middle of the night?" Wei Jinghe got up, put on his clothes and walked out.

Using the lantern light to see Xia Boqing next to Chang'an, Wei Jinghe asked, "Why are you here?"

"Brother, Zhiying and Xiaobao were kidnapped. Zhuer said one of them was King Xuan." Then, Xia Boqing recounted what had happened.

Wei Jinghe's head buzzed with excitement. He didn't have time to think about it, so he went to call Prime Minister Wei to come up with a plan.

In the study, Wei Mingcheng saw Xia Boqing and was furious. He said angrily: "It's all because of you!"

Xia Boqing didn't dare to retort and said nothing.

"Father, there's no point complaining now. We have to find a way to rescue Zhiying as soon as possible. Given King Xuan's viciousness and cunningness, the consequences will be disastrous if we delay!" Wei Jinghe said anxiously.

"Alas!" Wei Mingcheng sighed heavily. Because of this matter, he was very careful every day. Yesterday, he thought that it was fortunate that Prince Jing was the crown prince. After two years, he would retire and return home. If the truth was revealed, Prince Jing would understand. After all, he had fallen deeply in love with Miss Xia. Unexpectedly, before Prince Jing officially became the crown prince, Zhiying's matter was exposed.

"Young Master, we can't delay any longer." Chang'an was also anxious. After all, this also concerned the lives of more than a hundred people in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"I'll go and tell the emperor!" Wei Mingcheng decided to confess to the emperor.

"Zhiying hasn't been found yet. What if King Xuan finds out that my father went to see the emperor and he gets so angry that he attacks Zhiying..." Wei Jinghe felt more and more heartbroken the more he thought about it.

"Why don't you go find my father first and plead with the emperor together? The emperor will still give my father some face." Lu Qing'er walked in at this time. She heard Chang'an calling Wei Jinghe just now.

"This matter cannot be delayed. Father, you and Chang'an go to the general's mansion. Qing'er and I will go to Prince Jing to explain the truth. Prince Jing is deeply in love with Miss Xia and will not blame us. Then we can find a way to rescue Zhiying." After Wei Jinghe finished speaking, he asked Chang'an to prepare the carriage. He took Lu Qing'er on horseback and went straight to Prince Jing's mansion.

In Prince Xuan's Mansion, Wei Zhiying woke up slowly, looked up and saw Chu Xingyue sitting in front of the bed. She sat up nervously, and when she saw Xiaobao sleeping beside her, she felt relieved.

"Are you awake, Miss Wei?" Chu Xingyue smiled and shouted outside, "Luo Jiang, go to the kitchen and heat up some food for Miss Wei."

After a while, the food was served. Wei Zhiying was indeed hungry. She consumed a lot of energy while breastfeeding her baby, so she ate a lot. She didn't care about anything else and started eating, just for the baby.
