As night fell, the entire Northwest Military Camp fell into silence.
Zhan Yan comforted the depressed Lin Yiwan: "Axuan will be fine. Hasn't Xie Jianshu been leading people to search for them? As long as their bodies are not found, they will definitely be alive in this world!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Jianshu's hoarse voice suddenly came from outside: "Uncle, Aunt, there is good news!"
Lin Yiwan's expression suddenly changed. She rushed out and asked, "Did you find them?"
Xie Jianshu, who was in a mess, touched his head awkwardly and said, "No, it's just that we found the medicine bag that Boss Xuan was carrying near the barbarian border!"
When Lin Yiwan saw the familiar medicine bag, tears immediately fell.
It was sewn by her for Zhan Xuan herself, using extremely tough cowhide.
She said in a trembling voice: "Are Ah Xuan and Ye Li already in the barbarian territory now? They must still be alive!"
Xie Jianshu spoke quickly: "That place is very close to the back mountain of Cangliang City. I have already sent people to sneak in. Once they find a clue, they will report back soon!"
Zhan Yan reached out and patted his shoulder, praising him: "Xiaoshu, thanks to you!"
Guilt flashed across Xie Jianshu's face, and he whispered, "Uncle, don't say that. It's my fault for not taking good care of Boss Xuan and Ye Li. I'm sorry!"
Lin Yiwan said gently, "Silly child, what does this have to do with you? The fact that you've been loyal to him and have gone to such great lengths to find him is enough!"
Xie Jianshu shook his head vigorously: "No, that's not enough. He is my Boss Xuan. If he hadn't been protecting me, I wouldn't be who I am today. Don't worry, the two of you. I might be able to find him!"
After saying that, he turned around and ran away quickly.
Looking at his back, Zhan Yan said with relief: "Zhan Xuan's disappearance can be regarded as a good thing. He made Xie Jianshu grow up. In my eyes, he was just a child before, but until this moment, I realized that he has become a man who can take on responsibilities!"
Lin Yiwan nodded: "If Xie Ru saw this, she would definitely be very pleased!"
Zhan Yan held her in his arms and comforted her: "Just rest assured and wait for news in the barracks. I will go to Cangliang City to find out if there is any clue about Zhan Xuan!"
Lin Yiwan responded muffledly: "Okay!"
Zhan Yan led his men to Cangliang City, and Ning Wenyuan, who had already returned to Ning Mansion, immediately received the news.
He quickly ordered, "Quick, prepare the most sumptuous banquet to welcome Lord Zhan Yi!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a cold voice suddenly came from outside the courtyard: "Why are you panicking? Marquis Zhan Yi's son hasn't been found yet, so why would he come to the mansion to attend the welcoming banquet?"
Ning Wenyuan quickly stood up and supported her: "Mother, how did I disturb you?"
Madam Ning glanced at him. "Such a big thing happened in the mansion, and you plan to keep it a secret from me? Suisui has been raised by my side since she was a child. She hasn't shown up for several days in a row. Do you think I can trust her?"
When this was mentioned, Ning Wenyuan's expression turned cold and ugly.
He gritted his teeth and complained, "It's all Suisui's fault. There are so many good men in Cangliang City that she doesn't like. Why did she have to choose a barbarian? If she hadn't tipped off the situation, the second son of Marquis Zhan Yi wouldn't have disappeared, and our Ning Mansion wouldn't have been tainted by this scandal!"
Madam Ning clenched her cane tightly and said, "No matter what, the incident has already happened. We must find a way to resolve it!"
Ning Wenyuan said, "Mother, there is no good way to resolve this situation unless we can find that Second Young Master Zhan. Only then can we make up for our mistakes!"
Madam Ning asked worriedly, "Did you find it?"
Ning Wenyuan couldn't help but smile bitterly: "The place where he disappeared is a steep cliff. If he fell down, he would be smashed to pieces. I'm afraid he is in great danger!"
Madam Ning hesitated for a moment before lowering her voice and saying, "Wenyuan, Suisui is your sister. You can't just watch her being imprisoned in the Northwest Military Camp. You have to find a way to rescue her!"
Ning Wenyuan said awkwardly, "Mother, what can I do? Suisui is pregnant with that barbarian's child now. There's no way she can be released!"
Madam Ning's tears immediately rolled down her cheeks. She sobbed and cried, "Did I raise a daughter in vain? Suisui is my daughter in my old age. You know, she is my life!"
Ning Wenyuan quickly comforted her: "Mother, don't cry, at least she is fine now and has not suffered any injustice in the military camp!"
Madam Ning still refused to give up. She grabbed Ning Wenyuan's wrist tightly and begged, "Sui Sui has been raised in a honey pot since she was a child. How could she endure the hardship of living in a military camp? You are her eldest brother. No matter what, you must find a way to please Marquis Zhan Yi and make him release our Sui Sui!"
Ning Wenyuan subconsciously wanted to refuse because he thought his mother was daydreaming.
But Madam Ning refused to give in and even threatened to commit suicide.
She cried and said, "I can't eat a single bite without seeing Sui Sui. If you want to watch me starve to death, then you can just ignore Sui Sui's safety!"
Ning Wenyuan flatly denied it: "Mother, I didn't ignore it, I just couldn't do anything!"
Madam Ning interrupted anxiously, "Didn't I remind you to go and curry favor with Marquis Zhan Yi? He's not in Cangliang City. Take him to Lingyan Pavilion. The girls there are all incredibly beautiful. He's a man, he won't remain indifferent!"
Ning Wenyuan shook his head like a rattle. "Impossible! Marquis Zhan Yi is not that kind of person. The story of his love affair with his wife has spread throughout Shengjing City. Compared to a beauty like his wife, the girl from Lingyan Pavilion is nothing!"
Madam Ning pinched his arm angrily, "What do you know? A good reputation is only for outsiders to see. In reality, there is no such thing as an absolutely loyal man in this world. Even your father has many wives and concubines. If it weren't for my clever tactics, all the illegitimate sons and daughters in our family would have been banished to Cangliang City!"
Ning Wenyuan still didn't believe it and he didn't want to take the risk.
Madam Ning wiped her tears and said, "Aren't you willing to give it a try? She's your own sister, Ning Wenyuan, you can't be so cruel!"
Ning Wenyuan was forced into a corner and could only give in: "Okay, I'll invite Marquis Zhan Yi to go to Lingyan Pavilion. If he doesn't like the girls there at all, then you can only give up!"
After saying that, he hurried out.
Madam Ning murmured as she watched his back, "The women in Lingyan Pavilion all look like fairies, especially their figures, which are extremely alluring. I don't believe Zhan Yan can withstand them!"
Zhan Yan searched for a long time in the back mountain of Cangliang City, and then he saw Ning Wenyuan rushing over.
He spoke respectfully, "My Lord, please ask the Ning family to help us search. It's getting late. Can I take you to rest first?"
Zhan Yan refused without hesitation: "No, I'm not tired yet!"
