However, what surprised him was that there was no movement from the Second Prince.

It seemed as if everything had returned to calm.

However, Lu Ming knew in his heart that this was just the calm before the storm.

Lin Wan'er's departure from the capital is definitely not that simple.

One day, he was deep in thought in his study when suddenly a guard came hurriedly to report.

"Your Highness, there's news!"

Lu Ming immediately perked up when he heard that, "Speak!"

"Someone saw Miss Lin heading north after leaving the capital, seemingly looking for something."

The guard whispered.

"North?"

Lu Ming frowned slightly, "Do you know where he went exactly?"

The guard shook his head. "It's not clear yet, but we've sent people to continue the investigation."

Lu Ming nodded when he heard this, but he was a little confused.

Lin Wan'er headed north, what was she looking for?

Could it be that……

Thinking of this, a gleam of light suddenly flashed in his eyes.

On the other side, Lin Wanqing felt very strange when he learned about this.

Why did Lu Ming look for his cousin Lin Wan'er for no reason?

Could it be that Lin Wan'er caused trouble for herself?

After much deliberation, Lin Wanqing decided to tell Lin Wan'er about this matter.

However, when she arrived at the courtyard where Lin Wan'er lived, she learned that she had already left the capital.

"What? Wan'er left the capital?"

Lin Wanqing was stunned when he heard this, and suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

She had no prior knowledge of Lin Wan'er's departure from the capital.

Where did the other person go when he left in such a hurry?

Thinking of Lu Ming's actions, Lin Wanqing felt more and more uneasy.

Just then, a maid came hurriedly.

"Miss, someone brought a letter, saying it's for you."

Lin Wanqing took the letter and opened it, and his face suddenly changed.

This letter was left by Lin Wan'er. It said that what she had done was discovered by Lu Ming and asked Lin Wanqing to help her.

"What on earth did Wan'er do?"

Lin Wanqing was angry and anxious, and quickly sent people to look for Lin Wan'er's whereabouts.

At the same time, Lu Ming also received news that someone saw Lin Wan'er heading north.

"It seems she really went north."

A cold light flashed in Lu Ming's eyes, "Prepare the horses, I'm leaving immediately!"

On the other side, Lin Wanqing also received the same news and hurriedly took his men to chase after them.

The two groups left the capital one after another and rushed towards the north.

Lin Wanqing was extremely anxious, fearing that something might happen to Lin Wan'er.

Although she usually disciplined her cousin, she was young and energetic after all, and was easily impulsive.

I don’t know what kind of trouble I got into this time, even Lu Ming was alarmed.

Thinking of Lu Ming's methods and schemes, Lin Wanqing felt a chill in his heart.

She didn't think the other party would let Lin Wan'er go easily.

Just then, a burst of hurried horse hooves suddenly came from the front.

Lin Wanqing looked up and saw Lu Ming galloping towards him with a group of people.

"Prince Lu!"

Lin Wanqing hurried forward and asked, "May I ask, has the prince ever met my cousin Lin Wan'er?"

Lu Ming glanced at her and said coldly: "She is in trouble, and I am about to go find her."

Lin Wanqing's heart tightened when he heard this. "May I ask, Your Majesty, what kind of trouble has Wan'er gotten herself into?"

"You don't need to know this."

Lu Ming's expression was icy. "Just tell me where she is."

Lin Wanqing felt helpless and could only tell the truth: "I don't know either. I just received a letter from her saying that she was heading north."

Lu Ming frowned upon hearing this, looked at Lin Wanqing deeply, and then waved his hand and said, "Let's go!"

After saying that, he rushed out first.

Seeing this, Lin Wanqing hurriedly followed with his men.

The group rushed north.

Lin Wanqing was extremely anxious, not knowing where Lin Wan'er had gone or what trouble she had gotten herself into.

Lu Ming was speeding along while thinking deeply.

Lin Wan'er's departure from the capital was definitely not that simple. Considering the Second Prince's previous actions, he already had some vague guesses in his mind.

But the other party’s real purpose is still uncertain.

After galloping for half a day, the group finally arrived at a small town in the north.

"Your Highness, there's a small town ahead. Should we go in and rest for a while?"

The guard stepped forward and asked.

Lu Ming nodded and said, "Let everyone rest for half an hour before continuing on our journey."

Upon hearing this, everyone dismounted and looked for a place to rest.

Lin Wanqing also brought his people to a teahouse to rest.

"Miss, please drink some water."

The maid handed over a cup of tea.

Lin Wanqing took the tea, took a sip, and then asked, "Is there still no news about Wan'er?"

The maid shook her head and said, "We've sent someone to inquire about it. We should have news soon."

Lin Wanqing nodded when he heard this, but felt a little uneasy.

Just then, a guard hurried in.

"Miss, there's news!"

Lin Wanqing stood up immediately after hearing this and asked, "Tell me, where is Wan'er?"

"Someone saw Miss Lin in the town, but she left very quickly, apparently heading towards the mountains."

The guard whispered.

Upon hearing this, Lin Wanqing immediately went out and said, "Prepare the horses and head to the mountain!"

Lu Ming also received the same news and hurriedly left the town with his men and chased towards the mountain.

The two groups of people chased up the mountain, one in front and one behind.

The mountain road was rugged and difficult to travel on, but everyone didn't care about that and could only rush up.

Lin Wanqing was extremely anxious, fearing that something might happen to Lin Wan'er.

Lu Ming also had a serious expression on his face, his heart filled with worry.

Although he didn't know the Second Prince's true purpose, he knew that the other party would never let Lin Wan'er go.

Now I just hope they can find each other as soon as possible and don’t let anything happen to each other.

The group chased all the way up and soon reached the top of the mountain.

However, what surprised them was that apart from a few dilapidated houses on the top of the mountain, there was no sign of Lin Wan'er.

"Could it be that we are chasing in the wrong direction?"

Lin Wanqing was full of doubts.

Lu Ming frowned and looked around as if he was looking for some clues.

Just then, a burst of hurried footsteps suddenly came.

When everyone looked back, they saw several men in black carrying a person hurriedly down the mountain.

"Wan'er!"

Lin Wanqing recognized at a glance that the person being carried was Lin Wan'er, and his face changed immediately.

"Quick! Chase after me!"

Lin Wanqing immediately took his men to chase after him.

Lu Ming also had a cold expression and waved his hand, saying, "Chase!"

The two groups of people quickly chased after the man in black.

The men in black carried Lin Wan'er down the mountain at an extremely fast speed. They were obviously well-trained masters.

Although Lin Wanqing was anxious, he knew that he could not panic at this moment, so he could only grit his teeth and keep chasing.

Lu Ming also had a serious expression on his face, his eyes fixed on the man in black in front of him.

The two sides chased each other and soon arrived at a dense forest at the foot of the mountain.

The man in black suddenly stopped and turned to face the people chasing him.

"Who are you? Why are you chasing us?"

One of the men in black asked in a cold voice.

"We are Lin Wan'er's family and friends."

Lin Wanqing stepped forward and said, "Let her go quickly, or don't blame us for being rude!"

"Humph! Want to save people? It depends on whether you have the ability to do so!"

The man in black snorted coldly and suddenly swung his knife.

Seeing this, Lin Wanqing quickly dodged and drew the sword in his hand to meet the attack.

The two sides immediately engaged in a fierce battle.
