"Sir, I have asked."

Xiao Shian: "Tell me quickly, what happened?"

"Mrs. Shen was burned to death."

Xiao Shian felt a tinnitus in his ears when he heard this, and he suspected for a moment that he had heard it wrongly.

"What did you say?"

"Madam Shen, the girl from the Jiang family who jumped into the river for you was burned to death."

This time, Xiao Shian really heard that Jiang Sujin was burned to death. His heart skipped a beat and then he fell to the ground.

"How could she be burned to death?"

"Ah? How could she be burned to death?"

"Ah?" Xiao Shian suddenly couldn't help but burst into tears.

Xiao Zhennan: "It's better to die, so you don't have to worry about me anymore."

"Now Shen Yanfeng has mobilized 20,000 imperial guards and is frantically searching the entire city for someone. Let's just wait for him to be beheaded by the emperor!"

"Hahaha!"

Shen Yanfeng had beaten his son repeatedly, and he had long hated him to the core.

Xiao Shian collapsed on the ground, crying and gasping for breath. He had hated her for setting him up before, but now that he suddenly heard that she was dead, he suddenly couldn't accept it.

How could such a beautiful woman be burned to death?

Shen Yanfeng led the Imperial Guards and began a carpet search of the capital.

He visited every teahouse and shop in the streets and alleys of the capital.

He always felt that she was hiding somewhere, and as long as he looked carefully, he would be able to find her.

She couldn't die, absolutely couldn't die.

He would not allow her to disappear from his world, absolutely not.

Jiang Sujin's carriage was still speeding towards the outside of the capital. She was sitting in the carriage, feeling very nervous and always feeling that something was about to happen.

Just then, a horse suddenly caught up with Jiang Sujin's carriage.

"Miss, stay!"

Seeing that his way was blocked, the driver had no choice but to tighten the reins to force the carriage to stop.

"Miss, I was sent by Lord Jiang. Lord Jiang asked me to tell you that Lord Shen is leading the Imperial Guards to search the whole city for you."

Jiang Moting had been sending people to keep an eye on the news from the Shen Mansion. After learning that Shen Yanfeng had begun looking for someone throughout the city, he immediately ordered people to ride fast horses to chase Jiang Sujin's carriage.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Sujin couldn't help but stick her head out and asked, "How long will it take us to leave the capital?"

"Miss, even if we travel non-stop, it will take us three hours."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Sujin's brows furrowed even more tightly. She had finally escaped and absolutely could not be caught by Shen Yanfeng.

She jumped off the carriage and looked around. This place seemed familiar, as if she had been here before.

Suddenly an idea struck her, and she quickly jumped into the carriage.

"Keep going south and you will see a large forest. Put me on the tree and come back to find me when the wind has died down."

"But Miss, it will be dark in a few hours."

Jiang Sujin gritted her teeth and said, "It doesn't matter! Just follow my orders."

She was most afraid of the dark and heights, so Shen Yanfeng would never have thought that she would hide in the tree.

Hearing this, the driver had no choice but to pull the reins again and start driving towards the forest.

The guard took a look at the direction the carriage was leaving, then turned his horse around and rode back.

After Yang Xiuyun woke up, she found that Jiang Moting did not attend the morning court.

"Why didn't you go to the morning court?"

Jiang Moting glanced at Yang Xiuyun with a complicated expression, then said in a deep voice: "There is one thing I have to tell you."

Yang Xiuyun rarely saw him so serious, so she quickly got up and got out of bed.

"What's wrong, what happened?"

Jiang Moting looked at her and hesitated for a moment, then said in a trembling voice: "There was a fire in Susu's courtyard, she..."

Yang Xiuyun couldn't help but widen her eyes when she heard this: "How is Susu? Is Susu okay?"

Jiang Moting looked at her and couldn't help swallowing his saliva: "Susu... was burned to death."

Hearing this, Yang Xiuyun couldn't help but widen her eyes: "Impossible, absolutely impossible~"

After Yang Xiuyun shouted this, she fainted.

Jiang Moting hurriedly hugged Yang Xiuyun, and then shouted loudly to the outside: "Call the court doctor quickly!"

He didn't want to lie to her, but there would be a funeral soon, and he was afraid that Yang Xiuyun would reveal her true colors and arouse Shen Yanfeng's suspicion.

The best plan for now is to be as sad as possible. Only in this way can Shen Yanfeng believe that Susu was really burned to death.

What he was doing now was a life of licking blood on the edge of a knife. It was good that Susu left. After a while, he would send the four of them, mother and children, over there. This way, he would have nothing to worry about.

Shen Yanfeng led a large number of imperial guards and searched every street and alley, but there was no sign of Jiang Sujin.

"Everyone, divide into groups and search in all directions, heading outside the capital."

As he said this, he jumped on his horse and drove quickly off the street.

Duke Rong was in the Shen Mansion and was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

Shen Yanfeng secretly mobilized 20,000 imperial guards, which was a capital crime punishable by beheading.

"Come here, prepare the horses. I am going to the palace to apologize for my crime."

He hoped that the emperor would spare his grandson for his old age.

Father Shen: "Dad, are we going to hold the funeral?"

"What should we do? If the little bastard doesn't come back, who of you dares to do anything?"

"How could you give birth to such a bastard?"

Hearing this, Father Shen was so angry that he wanted to slap himself. When Jinlan died, he stayed at home for half a month without going out.

Now that Jiang Sujin has taken over, he is even crazier than before.

Shen Yanfeng rode his horse to the outskirts of the capital. His eyes were full of red bloodshot. He had not slept all night and had shed so many tears that his eyes became red and swollen.

After a moment, he galloped away again.

When he passed by the forest, he suddenly couldn't help but stop.

Lin Feng: "Sir, how about going in and taking a look?"

Shen Yanfeng thought that there were wolves in the forest. She was afraid of wolves and even more afraid of the dark, so no matter what, it was impossible for her to hide in the forest.

Moreover, she is afraid of heights, so it is impossible for her to hide in a big tree.

"No, keep looking forward."

"Gee~" Shen Yanfeng slapped the horse's butt hard, and then galloped away in an instant.

At this moment, Jiang Sujin stood on the roof of the carriage, grabbed the knotted rope dropped from above, and then climbed up bit by bit.

Her whole body was shaking at this moment, and if she wasn't careful, she might fall down.

She was afraid of heights, really afraid, but she knew that only in this way could she escape successfully.

Thinking of this, she gritted her teeth, then gripped the rope tightly and climbed up with all her might.

It took her a long time to climb onto the big split split.

The tree is very tall and has dense leaves. Even if you stand under the tree, you can't see the people on top unless you look carefully.

"Miss, can you please do this?"

Jiang Sujin closed her eyes, hugged the tree trunk tightly, and said through gritted teeth: "Okay, hurry down, don't let others find you."

The driver hesitated for a moment, then went down the rope.

It was a long time before the coachman got into the carriage.

"Miss, please pull up the rope!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Sujin quickly closed her eyes and began to grope for the rope, but she couldn't find it after searching for a long time.

After a moment, she finally opened her eyes hesitantly. However, when she saw the height below, she suddenly felt dizzy and her heartbeat began to accelerate.

Jiang Sujin quickly closed her eyes and tried to regulate her breathing.

No, she must overcome this fear. If she can't, let alone escape, she will be scared to death.

Jiang Sujin took a deep breath, then opened her eyes and focused her attention on the rope. Then she loosened her hands on the tree trunk and slowly pulled the rope up.

She still needs to rely on this rope to go down, so she must keep the rope safe.

After she pulled the rope up, she tied it around her ankles immediately.

That way, even if she fell, there would be a rope to hold her.

After taking this reassurance, her fear was slightly alleviated.

Shen Yanfeng rode at full speed and found Xianyang outside the capital, but he didn't see anything suspicious at all.

This is because he has fast running speed. If he had taken a horse carriage, it would have been impossible for him to reach Xianyang in one day.

Jiang Sujin can't ride a horse, so she can only take a carriage.

Shen Yanfeng looked around with dry eyes and suddenly felt powerless. In this vast ocean, where should he go to find her?

Or...was she really burned to death?

Thinking of this, Shen Yanfeng suddenly couldn't help spitting out a mouthful of blood, and then he fell off the horse.

"My lord! My lord!"
