The daughter of the emperor is reborn to be beautiful and cool, and the King of Zhenbei loves her wi

She didn't know whether her uncle had returned for the appointment. Because of her previous life, even if Shen Nanzhi sent Zhuifeng Zhuyue to protect him secretly, she still felt a little uneasy.

"Your Majesty, I remembered that there is something urgent at home and I need to rush back as soon as possible."

Judging from the sky, it's just past noon. If we hurry back now, we should still be in time.

Before Xiao Chuyun could say anything, Lu Pianpian, who was holding the medicine, urged him, "Don't rush back yet. Drink the medicine while it's hot."

Shen Nanzhi was extremely anxious. Even though the medicine was still a little hot, bitter and smelly, she didn't care. She held her breath and drank it all in one breath.

Xiao Chuyun raised his eyes to look at Shen Nanzhi, and said in a gentle voice: "Miss Shen, don't worry. Yesterday afternoon, I asked Mo Yi to send someone to report to the Zhenguo Mansion that everything was safe. He only said that the carriage broke down on the road, and Miss Shen had to stay at Xiangguo Temple for one night."

He was thoughtful, so Shen Nanzhi had nothing to worry about. What she was worried about now was the appointment between her uncle and Miss Wen San at Wanbao Tower, but she couldn't say it to others. She just said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your thoughtful consideration. There should be nothing wrong at home. I just have an appointment with someone and don't want to break my promise."

If her uncle couldn't make it back, she would have to make this trip on his behalf to ensure Miss Wen San's safety.

So, she was right to say that.

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Chuyun's eyes dimmed for a moment, not sure if it was Shen Nanzhi's illusion.

When she looked closely, he had regained his usual calm and gentle demeanor: "Okay, I'll ask Mo Yi to prepare the carriage."

Lu Pianpian also returned to the house, quickly packed her luggage, and followed Shen Nanzhi and his group.

I don't know where Mo Yi found two carriages from, and he gave one to Shen Nanzhi and one to Qiuyue. Qiuyue drove the carriage, while Lu Pianpian squeezed in with Shen Nanzhi.

After yesterday's thrilling experience, Shen Nanzhi couldn't help but feel nervous all the way, fearing that some assassin might jump out along the way.

But it turned out that her worries were unnecessary.

The journey was calm and peaceful.

However, when we were about to reach the city gate, because it was the Flower Festival today, there was no curfew in the city and the city gates were not closed. The closer we got to the city gate, the more crowded it became. Even after entering the city, the carriage could hardly move forward.

The sky was getting darker and darker. Looking at the long line of carriages, Shen Nanzhi estimated that they would not be able to enter the city even after the sun went down.

She was afraid that it would be too late, so she could only tell Qiuyue to take Lu Pianpian back home later, while she would get off the carriage and walk into the city.

However, before leaving, Shen Nanzhi still went to say hello to Xiao Chuyun.

The other party didn't say anything, but only reminded her to be careful in the crowd. After Shen Nanzhi thanked him, she turned around and squeezed into the crowd.

Shen Nanzhi was afraid of wasting time, so he didn't even go back to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion and went straight to Wanbao Tower.

The lights come on, like thousands of stars in the sky.

The streets were bustling with people, but Shen Nanzhi had no time to pay attention to anything else. She hurried on her way, holding up her skirt.

Wanbaolou has five floors and is located in the most prosperous area of ​​Kyoto. From the top floor, you can overlook almost half of Kyoto's night view.

It is said that the top floor has been reserved by a nobleman today.

The private rooms in Wanbaolou become more expensive as you go up the stairs. People who consume here are either rich or noble. On a day like this, the fifth floor can be booked directly. The identity of that nobleman is definitely not simple.

But Shen Nanzhi had no time to think about these things now. Miss Wen San and her uncle had made an appointment in a private room on the third floor called Zhuzi. Shen Nanzhi went all the way there.

Before going there, she had thought about how she should greet Miss Wen San if her uncle broke his promise due to official business, and what reasons she should find to stay with her until the Lantern Festival was over and then send her back to the Yong'an Earl's Mansion safely.

But what Shen Nanzhi didn't expect was that when she rushed to Wanbao Tower in a hurry, she did not see Miss Wen San.

Instead, he met Zhuifeng who happened to be running down from the third floor, looking for someone.

"Miss!"

When Shen Nanzhi saw Zhuifeng appear here, he had a bad feeling.

The two of them walked quickly through the corridor and found a corner where no one was around. Shen Nanzhi lowered his voice and asked, "What's going on?"

Zhuifeng drooped his eyelids and said with an annoyed look, "The prince did not keep the appointment today, but the third Miss Wen came as promised. She came with several sisters from her family. Because there were many people outside today, it was not convenient for Zhuifeng and I to follow closely. We could only watch from afar. We clearly saw her go up to the third floor of Wanbao Tower, but she disappeared in the blink of an eye. The girls who followed her were still in the private room, but she was missing. We sent someone to inquire and they said that she went to the toilet with her maid, but when the maid came back, she said that no one was in the toilet. The Wen family is in chaos now."

How could a normal person disappear for no reason?

What's more, Miss Wen San is not a child, so it is impossible for her to get lost while playing around.

Shen Nanzhi felt dizzy after hearing these words.

Did something happen after all?

She quickly calmed herself down and asked, "How long has she been out of your sight?"

Zhuifeng lowered his head: "It took less than a cup of tea."

Shen Nanzhi felt a little relieved.

"If the person is not in Wanbao Tower, he should not have walked far. Zhuyue stays here and searches the Wanbao Tower one by one. You ask the Shen family's secret guards to search along the most remote alleys in the north and south with Wanbao Tower as the center. Also send someone to guard the city gate."

All the carriages are stuck on the road today. If they were kidnapped by criminals, they would definitely not be able to get the people out of the city so quickly.

Shen Nanzhi guessed that the most likely possibility was that he was hiding in a secluded alley, waiting for the crowd to disperse and then taking advantage of the situation.

Or maybe he was not kidnapped by criminals, but something else happened, but the information she knew was very limited.

Shen Nanzhi didn't have time to think about it. After giving the order, he walked to the place where Miss Wen San disappeared, the women's restroom.

Chunmiao, the maidservant beside her, had already burst into tears. Now she and several other girls from the Wen family were guarding the door, at a loss what to do. They dared not speak out or call for help.

Shen Nanzhi asked a few simple questions and then walked in.

It is located in a narrow corner on the third floor, with the windows half open, facing the back street below.

Looking out the window, the area below was brightly lit, but the closest alley had dim lights.

However, Shen Nanzhi was a martial artist with extraordinary senses and excellent eyesight. Looking carefully, she could vaguely see two people stealthily pushing a large sack onto a carriage.

A human figure could be vaguely seen in the sack.

Shen Nanzhi's heart sank. Without time to think, she simply turned over and jumped out of the window, leaping onto the roof of the opposite house.

Lu Pianpian said that she couldn't use her energy at will, but given the current situation, Shen Nanzhi couldn't care less.

If it was really Miss Wen San, she was afraid that her hesitation would make her uncle regret it for the rest of his life.

It was still some distance from Wanbaolou, and the street was crowded with people, but Shen Nanzhi walked along the blue bricks, the roofs, and the walls, and after a few jumps he arrived at the alley.

Seeing that the carriage was getting closer, the two men had already boarded the carriage and were about to raise the reins.

Shen Nanzhi put more force on his feet, rolled over the roof, and landed steadily in the alley. He was about to speed up and rush over, but at this moment he suddenly heard two muffled sounds.

Someone suddenly jumped out before Shen Nanzhi and knocked the two men unconscious with two blows from the club.

Shen Nanzhi subconsciously stopped walking. When she got closer, she could see clearly that the person who made the move was Liuyun.

And then, someone walked out from the shadows behind Liuyun.

The man was dressed in moon-white cloud brocade, with a tall and slender figure, and his handsome eyes and eyebrows looked straight at Shen Nanzhi.

Shen Nanzhi's heart tightened.

It's him.

Xiao Qian'an.
