Lin Wanqing smiled slightly, her expression firm: "Old Madam, I know that this trip is full of dangers, but as the Princess of the County, I should stand by the County Prince. I hope that Old Madam will grant me this."

As she spoke, she bowed down.

The old lady looked at her determined expression, a hint of admiration flashing in her eyes.

She pondered for a moment before speaking, "Since you've made up your mind, go ahead. Just be sure to be safe."

Lin Wanqing was delighted when she heard this: "Thank you, old lady."

After coming out of the old lady's courtyard, Lin Wanqing took Pei'er back to the yard and began to pack their bags.

Pearl watched her swift movements and couldn't help but ask, "Miss, have you really made up your mind? That place is full of refugees now, and it's very dangerous."

Lin Wanqing sighed lightly, and his eyes passed through the window lattice and fell on the gently swaying bamboo leaves in the yard.

There was a hint of determination in her voice: "Pei'er, I've wasted quite a bit of time in this teahouse. The person behind it is hard to predict. Instead of wasting time here, why don't I go to where my husband is in person? Maybe I can find a way out."

Upon hearing this, Pei'er's face suddenly changed and she hurried forward.

He held Lin Wanqing's wrists tightly with both hands, his eyes full of anxiety.

"Miss, that place is in chaos. How can you risk your life so easily? I'm worried about what will happen to you if something happens to you."

Lin Wanqing gently pulled out his hand and gently stroked Pei'er's cheek.

"Pearl, how could I not know your worries? But precisely because of this, I have to go."

Having said that, Lin Wanqing turned and walked to the table and began to pack his luggage carefully.

Pei'er looked at her determined back and knew that her young lady had made up her mind and could not change it.

She gritted her teeth and stepped forward quickly: "Miss, if that's the case, then Pei'er will go with you."

Lin Wanqing was slightly stunned when he heard this, then he chuckled and shook his head.

"Silly girl, why are you following me? Just stay in the mansion and wait for me to come back."

Pei'er shook her head firmly: "No, Miss, Pei'er wants to go with you. You are not fully recovered yet, so it would be better if someone could take care of you on the way."

Lin Wanqing looked at her determined expression and knew that she was stubborn and would not easily change her decision, so he agreed.

The two packed their bags and went to the city gate to meet Shadow.

Shadow looked at Lin Wanqing, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes: "Princess, why are you here?"

Lin Wanqing smiled slightly and said, "I will go with you to find the Prince."

Upon hearing this, An Ying's face flashed with embarrassment: "Princess, this journey is full of dangers. You..."

"No need to say more, I have made up my mind."

Lin Wanqing interrupted him with a firm look.

Shadow looked at her and knew that she had made up her mind, so he said no more and only told her to be careful on the road.

The group left the city gate and rode at full speed towards the disaster relief area.

Lin Wanqing sat in the carriage, listening to the sound of horse hooves outside, with a thousand thoughts in his mind.

She lifted the car curtain and looked at the scenery passing by outside. She secretly swore in her heart that she must find Shen Yue this time and stand by him.

After traveling for several days, the group finally arrived at the disaster relief site.

Looking around, there were ragged, skinny refugees everywhere, sitting or lying on the muddy ground, struggling to survive.

Waves of stench hit his nose, and Lin Wanqing couldn't help but frown.

Shadow looked at her frown and said softly, "Princess, the environment here is harsh, you have to be careful."

Lin Wanqing nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.

She looked around at the refugees struggling on the brink of death, feeling mixed emotions.

She had never seen such a tragic scene. At this moment, she became more determined to find Shen Yue.

The group went deep into the refugee camp and asked around for Lu Shengyuan's whereabouts.

However, they asked throughout the refugee camp, but no one knew Shen Yue's whereabouts.

Lin Wanqing was extremely anxious. Where had Lu Shengyuan gone? Was he safe?

As it got darker, the group found a relatively clean place to set up camp.

Lin Wanqing sat by the fire, looking at the dancing flames, with a thousand thoughts in his mind.

Shadow came over and handed her a piece of roasted dry food: "Princess, please eat something."

Lin Wanqing took the dry food, but found it tasteless.

She looked up at Shadow, her voice trembling slightly: "Shadow, do you think we will lose the chance to find the Prince?"

Shadow looked into her worried eyes and shook his head firmly.

"No, Princess. The Duke is a lucky man, and we will definitely find him."

After hearing this, Lin Wanqing felt a little relieved.

She bit her lower lip lightly, a hint of determination flashed in her eyes: "Well, we will definitely find him."

As the night deepened, the refugee camp gradually became quiet.

Only the occasional coughing and crying sounds seemed particularly clear in the silent night.

Lin Wanqing lay in the simple tent, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.

Lu Shengyuan's figure and smile kept echoing in her mind, and her heart was filled with anxiety and worry.

Just then, the sound of hurried footsteps broke the silence of the night.

Shadow hurried into the tent: "Princess, there's news!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Wanqing sat up abruptly: "Really? Where is the prince?"

"Someone saw the prince being taken away by a group of refugees and heading in that direction."

Shadow said, pointing to a mountain in the distance.

Lin Wanqing's heart tightened, and he quickly stood up: "Then let's go find him!"

Shadow nodded and immediately gathered his men to set off.

Lin Wanqing didn't care about much else. He quickly packed up and followed Shadow out of the tent.

In the hazy moonlight, a group of people were walking quickly on a mountain path.

Lin Wanqing was filled with anxiety and worry. She was afraid that if she arrived a step later, Lu Shengyuan would be in danger.

She bit her lower lip so hard she could practically taste blood.

The group finally reached the top of the mountain, but they only saw a dilapidated mountain temple, and no sign of Lu Shengyuan.

Lin Wanqing's heart sank. Could it be that they were too late?

Shadow looked at her pale face and said softly, "Don't worry, Princess. I will go look around again."

As he said that, he led his men to search everywhere.

Lin Wanqing waited anxiously there, silently praying in her heart that Lu Shengyuan would be fine.

After a while, Shadow returned with his men, his face somewhat serious. "Princess, we have searched everywhere, but we can't find any trace of the Prince."

Lin Wanqing was struck by lightning when he heard this.

She stood there blankly, her heart filled with despair and helplessness.

Could it be that she really couldn't find Lu Shengyuan?

Just then, a faint voice came from the bottom of a cliff not far away.

Lin Wanqing's heart moved and he walked forward quickly.

She listened carefully and found that the sound came from the bottom of the cliff.

"Shadow, hurry, the prince may be down there!"

Lin Wanqing said this and climbed down the cliff without hesitation.

Seeing this, Shadow hurriedly followed.

The two men climbed to the bottom of the cliff one after the other and found a hidden cave.
