Transmigrated into a Prosperous Farm Wife, Pampered, Beautiful, Strong, and Tragic Prime Minister

The desperate tactic indeed changed Zhang Xiucheng's expression.

With the person almost within his grasp, how could he bear to let Guan Suying die?

"Suyi, I didn't say I wouldn't agree. Put the hairpin down and I'll let them go," Zhang Xiucheng said, his tone coaxing.

"Madam, we'd rather die than go with this beast!"

Bai Lu struggled, but was instead stepped on even harder, and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Guan Suyi looked at Bai Lu with heartache, "You should leave now. You've suffered a lot by my side all these years. I destroyed your indentures a long time ago. From now on, you are free. The world is vast outside. Go and live a peaceful life."

“Madam? We’re not leaving. What will you do if we leave?” Xia Zhi struggled as well, but ended up having one of her arms dislocated.

Upon learning of the young general's whereabouts, Xia Zhi, Bai Lu, and Shuang Jiang were all recalled, along with Xiu Gu and the five others from Jingzhe.

Of the five, Jingzhe is the most skilled in martial arts.

However, the Awakening of Insects was also controlled at this time.

They all knew that the lady would not have a good end if she fell into Zhang Xiucheng's hands.

Guan Suyi frowned. "Hurry up and leave. If you don't leave now, you won't be able to stay by my side when we go back. Maybe when we meet again, I will have become the Zhang family's wife. It's not appropriate for you to stay by my side."

Her staying was a temporary measure; only if they left would she have a chance to send a message to Tian'er. Otherwise, if Tian'er fell into the hands of the Zhang family, she would be completely doomed.

"Release them all." Zhang Xiucheng smiled as he looked at the maids.

They were all pretty and charming, but unfortunately, they all paled in comparison to Guan Suyi.

"go!"

After regaining her mobility, Jingzhe immediately grabbed a few people and left.

The opportunity that Madam had fought so hard to secure for them absolutely could not be wasted. Only if they lived could they find a way to save Madam and send a message to the young general.

Otherwise, if the Zhang family finds the young general first, everything will be over.

Zhang Xiucheng looked at Guan Suyi with a smile, his eyes filled with determination.

"Alright, now that they've left, can you come back with me in your plain white dress?"

"Wait a little longer." Guan Suying still held the hairpin in her hand; she didn't trust Zhang Xiucheng's character.

Zhang Xiucheng's expression changed slightly, but he smiled again. "Su Yi is so kind-hearted, it makes me a little jealous."

"But it's okay. We'll have plenty of time to get to know each other in the future. You'll see what kind of person I am."

After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, when Guan Suying felt the time was right and Zhang Xiucheng had lost patience, she finally got into the carriage.

Zhang Xiucheng's eyes instantly darkened as he looked at the people around him.

The people around him immediately went after the maids.

……

……

The sun rises in the morning, and it's a new day.

The workers arrived early this morning. Lin Shuyun was still suffering from the aftereffects of drinking and felt a bit dizzy after getting up.

She seemed to have a dream last night, but she forgot most of it when she woke up.

Just as I was about to think it over carefully, I heard Qin Niangzi knocking on the door.

Last night, Gu Chen and Gu Bao were not home, and Old Man Xu and Xiao Qing did not sleep in the livestock shed; they slept in their rooms.

"This kid, the sun is already high in the sky, why isn't he up yet? He always finds an opportunity to slack off."

"Old man, Xiaoqing, get up, time to work!"

"If you don't get up, I'm going to come in!"

Old Xu opened the door and came out of the house, yawning widely. "What's all the commotion about so early in the morning? That kid must have been up long ago, right? There's no one here."

"Nobody here? Where did he go so early in the morning?"

Qin Niangzi peeked into the house and found that there was indeed no one there.

"How would I know? He's a grown man, he won't get lost. He'll be back soon." Old Xu said before going to supervise the work.

The craftsmen are already in place; he has to oversee the completion of the house.

Third Aunt and her daughter-in-law also came to cook.

Lin Shuyun was so distracted by the dream that she completely forgot about it, only vaguely remembering that she seemed to have dreamed of a great beauty.

It wasn't until lunchtime that Xiaoqing was still nowhere to be found, and that's when everyone realized something was wrong.

They asked around but didn't see Xiaoqing leave. Lin Shuyun and Qin Niangzi went into the room where Xiaoqing slept last night and found a note under her pillow.

There is only one line on it.

"Sister Yun, I'm leaving now. I'm planning to leave this place. Thank you for taking care of me during this time. Xiao Qing."

"Did you run away from home? You only left a note, we didn't leave a single word. Didn't you say last night that you were a loving family?"

Qin Niangzi's tone wasn't very good; it sounded a bit sour.

"Hasn't Brother Xiaoqing learned his lesson from last time? He actually ran away on his own. It's dangerous for handsome boys to go out alone. What if he gets caught again and becomes the top courtesan at Yaoyue Tower?" Lin Shuyun stroked her chin.

I remember Xiaoqing seemed to have been crying all night.

She thought it was just drunken shouting and that she would be fine after a good night's sleep, but she never expected that after sleeping, no one would be there anymore.

I should have arranged two acres of land for them in advance.

"He was once the top courtesan at the Inviting Moon Pavilion?" Qin Niangzi exclaimed in surprise.

"Yes, Aunt, didn't you know? The doorkeeper of Yaoyue Tower only started targeting you after losing him, her cash cow," Lin Shuyun said casually.

To be honest, Xiaoqing had clung to her all along because she thought Xiaoqing was a mute girl.

Xiaoqing is depressed and irritable all the time now, and doesn't look as good as when she wears women's clothes.

Qin Niangzi was stunned for a moment, then turned and walked out.

“I don’t know. He was wronged. I’m going to go and get him back.”

Qin Niangzi returned shortly after leaving. "I asked your husband's men," she said, "and they said, 'He hasn't left the village. Where do you think he could have gone?'"

The five people—wind, rain, thunder, lightning, and clouds—only saw Xiaoqing leave the hospital, but they didn't see where he went.

Hearing this, Old Xu came over and casually asked, "Could they have gone into the mountains?"

Jiang Changtian pushed open the door. "This Mi Mountain stretches outwards for dozens of peaks. There's no way out. Once you go in, it's a dead end."

"I'll go find him!"

Upon hearing this, Madam Qin could no longer sit still.

"Aren't you two usually at odds and always bickering? Why are you acting all worried now? Do you two know each other?"

Old Xu looked at Qin Niangzi with curiosity, his eyes burning with gossip.

"know."

Qin Niangzi uttered two words, and her face turned pale at the thought that the boy might die.

"I suspected something was going on between you two before, but I didn't expect you actually knew each other. Is he your old flame? You heartlessly abandoned your husband and remarried, leaving him behind?"

Old Xu had an expression that said, "I knew it, I knew it."

Qin Niangzi's face darkened. "You old fool, what nonsense are you spouting? If it weren't for your age, I would have smeared the sole of my shoe on your mouth. At my age, do you think I'd find a seventeen or eighteen-year-old lover?"
