When Prince Yong'an learned that Shen Yanfeng had mobilized the Imperial Guards without authorization, he naturally went to the palace angrily, wanting the emperor to punish Shen Yanfeng for treason.

Before Prince Yong'an arrived, Duke Rong had already gone to the door of the imperial study to apologize.

The emperor naturally knew Shen Yanfeng's loyalty, and he now relied on Shen Yanfeng's imperial guards for protection, so he certainly could not punish Shen Yanfeng.

When Prince Yong'an entered the imperial study, he happened to see Duke Rong coming out of the imperial study.

He looked at him and couldn't help but snorted coldly, saying, "Duke Rong really knows how to educate people. Your own grandson is in charge of 30,000 imperial guards. You can mobilize them at will. If you don't know, you would think that these imperial guards are your Shen family army!"

"Today you dare to dispatch the Imperial Guards at will, and tomorrow you will usurp the throne. The ambitions of your Shen family are becoming increasingly difficult to conceal."

Upon hearing this, Duke Rong couldn't help but widen his eyes and said, "Your Highness, you are too kind. Feng'er is loyal to the Emperor. I hope Your Highness won't lie."

Prince Yong'an snorted coldly and said, "Loyalty or not is not something you can just say. The civil and military officials will believe it." After saying that, he snorted coldly and went in.

Duke Rong looked at his back, pursed his lips, and then hurried away.

"I am here to see you, Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty."

"Royal brother, please stand up!"

"Your Majesty, Shen Yanfeng mobilized the Imperial Guards without authorization. This is simply deceiving the emperor. I hope Your Majesty will punish him for treason to serve as a warning to others."

The emperor opened his eyes and winked at the eunuch beside him.

Seeing this, the eunuch hurriedly took two steps forward and said, "Pass on the emperor's oral order, order the commander of the imperial guards, Shen Yanfeng, to capture the female assassin in the capital, without any mistake."

Upon hearing this, Prince Yong'an couldn't help but widen his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, when did you receive this oral order?"

Emperor: "At four o'clock in the morning, a female assassin came to the palace. Before I could see her true spirit, she ran away."

Prince Yong'an: "Your Majesty, but I heard that Shen Yanfeng mobilized the Imperial Guards to look for his young lady."

The Emperor: "I am old, but I am not yet senile and confused. I issued this imperial decree, how could I not understand it?"

Prince Yong'an looked at the emperor with a dark face. He knew that the emperor was intentionally trying to protect Shen Yanfeng. After all, without Shen Yanfeng, he would be in real danger.

It seems that this old guy is much smarter than he thought.

Now that he has taken out the imperial edict, no one can say anything.

When Shen Yanfeng opened his eyes, he was already on the carriage returning to the Shen Mansion.

"Stop!"

Lin Feng: "Sir, are you finally awake?"

Shen Yanfeng had a dream, and the dream was all about him and Jiang Sujin in the forest.

He suddenly had this dream at this time, as if God was guiding him in the dark.

He opened his dry eyelids and said in a hoarse voice, "Go to the Western Suburbs Forest."

Lin Feng: "Sir, but it's dark now."

Shen Yanfeng looked at the ceiling with empty eyes and said, "Go, she... is very likely hiding in that forest."

Lin Feng: "Yes, sir!"

Shen Yanfeng blinked his dry eyes, and when he opened his eyelids again, his eye sockets had become moist.

Jiang Sujin, where are you? I don't believe you are dead. How could you be dead?

You must be hiding, you must be trying to escape from me, that's why you planned all this.

I would rather believe that you are trying to escape than believe that you are dead.

Good people don't live long, and disasters last for thousands of years.

You are a nuisance. How could a nuisance die so early?

As Jiang Sujin watched the dusk gradually fall, her fear slowly began to intensify.

She hugged the tree trunk tightly to reduce her fear.

She hadn't slept all night, but she didn't dare let herself fall asleep because once she fell asleep, her body would lose its balance.

As long as she could hold out this night and wait until the Royal Guards retreated on a large scale, she could go down.

Just as she closed her eyes and cheered herself up silently, the sound of horse hooves suddenly came from below.

This made Jiang Sujin's nerves tense instantly.

She stared down with her eyes wide open. At this moment, she no longer cared about her fear of heights because a greater fear had already arrived.

The Royal Guards riding on horses and holding torches came into Jiang Sujin's sight, led by Shen Yanfeng.

Jiang Sujin held her breath and then hugged the tree trunk even tighter.

Hopefully he wouldn't look up, or with his keen eyesight, she would surely be discovered soon enough.

At this time, night had fallen. Shen Yanfeng looked at the dark forest, feeling confused, helpless, and suffocated.

Lin Feng: "Sir, I think...the young lady should not be hiding here."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yanfeng gritted his teeth and said, "Search for me. Search a large area. Don't miss any place."

"It's my lord!"

A large number of royal guards began to disperse and gallop away in all directions.

Shen Yanfeng dismounted from his horse, then walked to the big tree where Jiang Sujin was with a torch.

He sat directly on the dead tree below and used a torch to light the dead branches and weeds on the ground.

Gradually, the surroundings became brighter, and Jiang Sujin's fear became greater.

She felt like she was being put on the fire by Shen Yanfeng, waiting to be roasted until she was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and then she would become his meal.

The flames grew higher and higher, but Shen Yanfeng felt himself getting colder and colder.

In the dancing flames, he seemed to see Jiang Sujin. She was smiling at him and seemed to be saying something. Suddenly, she started crying again, and the more she cried, the sadder she became.

Shen Yanfeng looked at Jiang Sujin's tears and suddenly couldn't help crying too.

Gradually his sobbing became louder and louder, until his whole body began to twitch.

When Jiang Sujin saw Shen Yanfeng curled up and sobbing, she couldn't help but feel a lump in her throat.

She quickly took a deep breath, fearing that something might go wrong at this moment and that he would feel her presence.

This man was not worthy of her pity at all, and she would never forget the way he insulted her.

At the beginning, she wanted to live a good life with him. She was grateful to him as her savior, and thought that as long as she behaved herself and did her best, he would slowly discover her good side.

It’s a pity that what I always get is his endless ridicule and indifference.

While he was occupying her body, he was also slandering her character.

If he had been more tolerant towards her, if he had been more compassionate towards her, she would not have put herself in such danger.

So she must escape from him and never see him again in her life.

Gradually, Shen Yanfeng cried louder and louder, and his tears flowed like a dam bursting, and he could no longer control them.

He might think that she might really be dead, or that she had really run away. In any case, it would be very difficult for him to catch her back. He really felt that she had completely disappeared from his world.

Jiang Sujin hugged the tree trunk and kept breathing. At this moment, her stomach suddenly began to hurt severely.

Could it be that my period has come? According to the date, it should be coming soon.

The pain was worse than her menstrual period, so much so that she couldn't help but start sweating.

Gradually, more and more beads of sweat appeared, and began to fall down drop by drop, falling on her clothes and on the tree trunks below.

This made Jiang Sujin even more panicked. The more this happened, the more her stomach hurt. At the same time, she sweated more and more.

Suddenly, a drop of sweat fell along the tip of her nose, brushed across her arm, and fell straight down.

Jiang Sujin widened her eyes and saw beads of sweat falling down. At this time, Shen Yanfeng was sitting below.

The drop of sweat happened to fall on the bridge of Shen Yanfeng's nose.

As beads of sweat fell, he suddenly felt as if he smelled a familiar smell.

He stopped crying instantly as beads of sweat dripped onto the bridge of his nose.

Shen Yanfeng raised his hand and touched the drop of sweat.
