"Bastard!" Marquis Wenxin kicked his son angrily, "You took the princess with you, how could you run back without caring about the princess' safety? You didn't lead someone to rescue the princess!"

Marquis Wenxin scolded his son angrily and knelt down to plead guilty to the emperor. Shen Yanzui was also so angry that his face was livid, his brows were furrowed and he wanted to crush Cheng Xiao.

Seeing Shen Yanzui's anger, Su Ning'an could hardly hold back her anger, and finally stepped forward to persuade him: "It's more important to send someone to find the princess first. As for Prince Cheng, the emperor can take care of it later, okay?"

Her eyes fell on the hand resting on his heart, and then she looked at Suning'an's pale complexion, and finally held it, and then suppressed her anger slightly.

"Should Prince Cheng remember the location just now?" Although it was a question, it contained a threat. If Cheng Xiao dared to shake his head, he wouldn't mind cutting him in half!

Cheng Shizi nodded hurriedly and said: "Remember, Wei Chen remembers."

Shen Yanzui then sent five teams, two teams followed Cheng Xiao, and the other three teams searched all over.

"Your Majesty, don't be anxious. The princess is of the Tian family's blood, and she has destiny to protect her. Nothing will happen to her."

Ana Shen rubbed his forehead. Normally, if he heard such words, he would scold her harshly, but An An...

Turning around, with gentle eyes, he raised his hand to hug her and asked her to sit next to him.

"It's been a tiring day today, why don't you go back and rest first?"

Su Ning'an glanced at the hanging military officers and civil servants, but no one dared to speak, so he shook his head, "I am very worried about the princess. I want to accompany the emperor."

Ana Shen nodded, but his eyes couldn't help but fall on King Jin, who had a low eyebrow.

In the forest, Shen Yudong and Yue Ying walked carefully under the moonlight, but their hearts were in a mess, and they were so panicked that they had no idea.

I don’t know how long I walked, but I could only roughly tell that I was walking in the direction of the camp.

The two of them were tired and thirsty, and their clothes had been torn by branches. Fortunately, they didn't encounter any snakes or insects on the road. But at the same time, he had to listen carefully to see if the leopard was following him, and at the same time, he had to calm himself down and not go in the wrong direction.

"Princess, there is a cave ahead."

Shen Yudong and Yue Ying hurried forward, Yue Ying said: "But I heard that there are often ferocious beasts in the cave, but I don't know whether it is true or not."

"Real or fake, I have to give it a try." Shen Yudong picked up a medium-sized stone and threw it in with all his strength. He only heard the stone hitting the stone wall and rolling on the ground for a distance. , but it was still quiet in the cave.

"It seems like everything is fine." The master and servant then entered the cave.

"Princess, what should we do next? Prince Cheng said that we would bring in reinforcements, but no one came?"

"Who knows!" Shen Yudong scolded coldly, "Why did Marquis Wenxin teach his son to be so timid and afraid of getting into trouble!"

There was so much coolness in the cave that the two of them couldn't help but hug each other tightly, "But don't worry, the emperor will definitely send someone here if he knows I haven't gone back."

The master and servant were talking when they heard a voice: "Why is the princess here?"

Shen Yudong and Yue Ying were so frightened that they screamed on the spot, almost piercing his eardrums.

Zhuang Mo couldn't stand the scream, so he frowned and lit the fire seal.

At that time, I didn’t know who the visitor was, so I didn’t dare to say anything. After listening for a long time, I found out that it was Princess Jingshu and her maid. It seemed that they were lost?

By the light of the fire, Shen Yudong saw clearly that it was Zhuang Mo. He was surprised and happy at the same time, "Master Zhuang, why are you here? Why are you dressed like this?"

Seeing Zhuang Mo dressed like a hunter, he was even more surprised and asked: "When did you return to Chang'an? If the emperor knew..."

"Did the princess get lost?" Zhuang Mo interrupted Shen Yudong without leaving any trace, not letting her continue asking.

Shen Yudong nodded, and Yingyue said hurriedly: "It's all because of Prince Cheng's fault. He said it was a men's and women's competition under the moon, but he brought the princess to such a remote place. There is no jade pendant here, and I don't know what it is. What are you thinking!"

"Prince Cheng? Prince Wenxin, Cheng Xiao?" Zhuang Mo listened and didn't understand why he felt awkward, so he could only say: "I think good things are coming soon for the princess."

"No, Mr. Zhuang, please don't get me wrong." Shen Yudong said hurriedly, but his face turned red unconsciously.

Yue Ying, however, looked at her master and then at Mr. Zhuang. She seemed to understand something and quietly took a few steps back.

Zhuang Mo nodded and took out the water bag from his waist, "If you don't mind it, Princess, use some. This place is off the main road and it's at night, so wild beasts are easy to come out. Princess, rest for a while, I'll take you back."

As he spoke, Zhuang Mo stepped back a little and sat down against the stone wall.

Originally, he was just taking a rest on the way, but he didn't expect to meet Princess Jingshu here. Although it was a bit tricky, he couldn't ignore it.

Shen Yudong nodded and was about to open his water bag when he suddenly thought that Shuizhuang Mo might have used it before and blushed unconsciously.

Zhuang Mo saw that Shen Yudong was holding the water bag and was motionless. He seemed to understand what she was thinking, and explained: "This water bag has not been used yet, Wei Chen has prepared two." After that, he took out another water bag from his waist. After shaking it, "Princess, don't worry."

"Oh...thank you." Shen Yudong nodded, took a few sips of water, and handed it to Yue Ying. I wanted to wipe my mouth with a handkerchief, but it was empty, so I had to wipe it roughly with my sleeve.

Zhuang Mo couldn't help but curl his lips when he saw that his dusty little face turned into a cat-like one after she touched it like this. It's just that he was hiding in the shadows at this time and no one noticed.

The two rested for less than a quarter of an hour before leaving with Zhuang Mo.

Zhuang Mo walked in front of them. Shen Yudong was still holding hands with Yue Ying, but looking at Zhuang Mo's back, he unconsciously felt more at ease.

"Princess." Zhuang Mo saw the camp three feet away, hiding in the shadows. "Wei Chen has important matters, so it is inconvenient to show up. Princess, just walk straight over and you will be there. As for Wei Chen's matter..."

"Don't worry, Mr. Zhuang, I will keep the secret for you." He said and looked at Yue Ying again.

Yue Ying said hurriedly: "Same goes for you, my slave."

Zhuang Mo nodded, seeing the fire coming quickly from the distance, he hurriedly said: "I think the emperor sent someone to look for you, I'm sorry to leave."

"Zhuang..." Shen Yudong looked at Zhuang Mo who disappeared in front of him, and suddenly caught a glimpse of a copper coin tasseled with five-color silk thread where he was standing just now.

Yue Ying saw the princess's gaze and immediately picked it up.

"Isn't this a protective copper coin?"

Protective copper coins were very popular in this dynasty. The polished copper coins were wrapped with five-color silk threads to ward off evil spirits.

Shen Yudong looked at the copper coin lying in his palm, and listened to a group of people running quickly, "Princess? Is it Princess Jingshu?"

Shen Yudong immediately closed his fingers and held the protective copper coin in his palm.

Princess Jingshu returned fine, and the emperor and Concubine Chen were finally relieved.

Cheng Shizi also brought people back at this time, but they only found the princess's handkerchief. Seeing Princess Jingshu standing here properly, they instantly breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Princess..."

Shen Yudong immediately took two steps away from him, not wanting to say another word to him.

"Your Majesty, the princess must have suffered a lot along the way. How about I accompany the princess to freshen up first?"

Shen Yanzhui glanced at Shen Yudong and felt that she was indeed in a sorry state, so he nodded and asked Su Ning'an to take her down. Then his cold and angry eyes fell on Cheng Shizi again.
