The War God Uncle's Delicate Wife

Jiang Li no longer worried about the similarities between the two pieces of jade and prepared to go to bed, but she did not sleep well that night. In her dream, she seemed to have returned to that terrible night.

"Miss, please walk slower!" Chuntao shouted loudly while chasing after her.

"Chun Tao, hurry up and catch up! I finally escaped from the mansion. If my elder brother knew about this, he would definitely punish me to write again!" Jiang Li looked only eight or nine years old at the moment, wearing a yellow dress, which made her look particularly playful and cute. Today, she finally took advantage of her elder brother's busy time to sneak out of the mansion and wanted to wander around.

"Miss, let's go back. Madam once said that the capital city has been a little unstable recently." Chuntao was a little older, and a little worried could not help but rise in her heart.

"Don't be afraid! This is the capital, under the feet of the emperor. Who would dare to cause trouble here? Don't worry!" Jiang Li comforted Chuntao lightly. As she walked forward, she browsed the stalls on the roadside with great interest. Occasionally, when she saw a headdress she liked, she couldn't help but stop and admire it. Since she had never lacked money since she was a child, once she liked a headdress, she would buy it without hesitation. Before long, Chuntao's arms were filled with various items.

"Miss, there are so many of these things! It's almost time to go back!" Chuntao never forgot to persuade the young lady to return to the mansion as soon as possible.

"Okay, okay, I get it! Let's just shop for a while and then go back!" Jiang Li was obviously still not satisfied and was reluctant to go shopping.

"Hey, have you heard? There's a circus troupe on the street ahead, and the show is really spectacular! It's said that they can perform amazing magic tricks, such as making people appear alive, and even being able to travel freely through mountains of swords and seas of fire!"

Jiang Li accidentally heard the conversation between two passers-by, and a strong sense of curiosity and anticipation surged in his heart. Hearing their description so vividly and interestingly, Jiang Li himself couldn't wait to go and find out.

"Chun Tao, let's go join in the fun!" Jiang Li said excitedly to the maid behind her. Before she finished speaking, she couldn't wait to quicken her pace and walk forward.

"Miss, please slow down, wait for me!" Chun Tao was holding a lot of things in her hands and was struggling to catch up. As the street was crowded with people who came to watch the excitement, Chun Tao was suddenly bumped by a pedestrian who was passing by in a hurry, and the things in her arms were scattered all over the ground in an instant.

The passerby who hit Chuntao stopped in a hurry, apologized repeatedly, and quickly bent down to help Chuntao pick up the dropped items. When Chuntao stood up again, she found that her mistress had already run away without a trace. Chuntao was anxious and quickly quickened her pace to chase after her.

After finally reaching the circus, Chun Tao found that the area was already crowded with people. She stood on tiptoe and tried to find Jiang Li through the gaps in the crowd, but to no avail. At this moment, she was extremely anxious and kept calling out Jiang Li's name outside.

However, the circus was putting on a wonderful performance, which attracted cheers and applause from the people present. Chuntao's voice seemed so insignificant in this noisy environment and was instantly drowned out. Although she was extremely anxious, Chuntao had no choice but to wait outside silently.

She secretly comforted herself: "After the performance, I will be able to see the lady." Time passed by, the sun gradually set, and a gorgeous sunset glow appeared on the horizon. Seeing the crowd gradually dispersed, the circus was about to close, but Chuntao still did not see Jiang Li. At this time, an ominous premonition came to her mind, and she began to realize that something was wrong.

So, she no longer hesitated, and hurried back to the Taifu Mansion, and told the others about the situation. After hearing about this, everyone expressed their concerns and decided to start a search operation immediately...

At this time, Jiang Li was unconscious in a cave, and there were a dozen children of her age with her. Time passed by minute by minute, and finally, after a long time, Jiang Li slowly opened her eyes. She struggled hard to sit up, but then she felt dizzy and her vision was blurred.

When she regained her vision, the scene she saw made her wake up instantly - it was an extremely huge cave! The cave was spacious and deep, as if it had no end. Jiang Li felt a surge of fear and uneasiness in her heart. She tried to move her body, but suddenly found that her hands and feet were tightly tied, leaning against a cold and hard stone, and she could not move at all.

"It's useless. Don't move anymore. Those people will come in and beat us up again." A girl who was slightly older than Jiang Li looked at her with a cold and warning look and said softly.

Jiang Li stared at the girl with wide eyes, and asked in a trembling voice: "Where exactly is this place? Why were we caught here?" Her mind was filled with confusion and fear, and she had no idea what was going on. The girl was silent for a moment, then sighed and answered in a low voice.

"This is Jicheng. All of you captured women will eventually be sold to brothels to serve customers." The girl responded to Jiang Li's question again.

After hearing this answer, Jiang Li's heart sank. She stared at the other party with wide eyes and asked in disbelief: "What? You actually want to sell us to that kind of place... Then what's wrong with you?"

A trace of sadness and helplessness flashed in the girl's eyes. She bit her lip lightly, then said with a bitter smile: "Me? Humph... I was not captured by them, but sold by my own family! Maybe our fate is similar..." After saying this, the girl lowered her head, as if she didn't want others to see the tears in her eyes.

Jiang Li had never expected to get such an answer, and for a moment he didn't know how to comfort the poor girl in front of him. After all, they were both in the same difficult situation, so how much hope could they bring to each other? At this moment, Jiang Li could only accompany the girl silently, feeling the pain and despair deep in her heart.
