On the mountain path, Que'er felt pain all over her body, but she was glad that she was not seriously injured.

She struggled to stand up and took a few steps in the direction of the carriage: "Master, Master!"

But the carriage was nowhere to be seen.

"The eldest young master has been taken away. What should I do now?" Que'er thought absentmindedly, her shoulders trembling slightly.

Suddenly, she remembered the last words of the man in black - to save the young master, she had to go to the Shen Mansion to convey the message. Her eyes gradually became firm, she gritted her teeth and turned to walk towards the capital.

She must find the lady as soon as possible and ask her to send someone to rescue the eldest young master.

When we returned to the Shen Mansion, night had already fallen.

"Feng'er is missing?" Mrs. Shen stood up in shock and looked at the two people kneeling in front of her to ask about the situation.

The little girl didn't know the details either, she just shook her head and said, "When I delivered the medicine, the young master had already disappeared."

"Where is Que'er?" Mrs. Shen asked.

"The sparrow disappeared with it."

Mrs. Shen's expression suddenly changed, and she angrily scolded: "This troublesome guy!"

Ever since Que'er followed Master Feng, she has been in trouble. Master Feng is weak and sickly, if something happens to him, what will she do?

"Why don't you go check it out! There are two people missing from the mansion for no reason and you know nothing about it!"

The maid knelt on the ground and trembled as she responded, "Madam, calm down. I will go and find out right away!"

At this moment, a voice came from outside the door: "Que'er is back!"

Mrs. Shen was shocked: "She's back? Let her in!"

Soon, Que'er was brought in. She was in tattered clothes, with wounds all over her body, especially the cut on her neck, the blood stained her clothes red, and her face was as dark as earth.

Mrs. Shen was horrified, her mind full of questions: How could a person become like this?

"Where is Master Feng? Where is he?"

"lady……"

Que'er's voice was weak, as if she was using up her last bit of strength to support herself. After walking from the wilderness to here, her physical strength had long been exhausted, and the world in front of her began to blur.

"Madam, please, save the young master!"

"What exactly happened?" Mrs. Shen grabbed Que'er's shoulders and asked anxiously.

"How is Master Feng? Where is he?"

Que'er reluctantly said, "The eldest young master was kidnapped, and the man said he would only release him in exchange for the second young master."

"What did you say?" Mrs. Shen was shocked and stared at Que'er.

Que'er's lips were dry and cracked, and her voice was barely audible: "Madam, please save the young master!"

Before he could finish his words, he fainted.

Mrs. Shen's heart suddenly tightened, Feng'er was in danger!

She clutched Que'er's clothes tightly, her face pale, and her voice panicked: "What's going on?"

"Que'er, wake up!"

The old maid stepped forward to stop her: "Madam, she has fainted."

"Call the doctor quickly and make sure to wake her up!" Mrs. Shen ordered anxiously. When she stood up, she staggered and almost fell. Fortunately, the old nanny held her up.

"Feng'er, Feng'er!" How would she face it if Feng'er made any mistake?

Anxiety surged into Mrs. Shen's heart like a tide, making her feel at a loss and unable to think about anything else.

The old nanny comforted Madam Shen softly: "Madam, you must be strong. The young master will be fine. Those bad guys dare not hurt him."

Mrs. Shen seemed not to hear these words. She just held the handkerchief tightly in her hand, her thoughts drifting away.

At this time, the little maid kneeling on the ground discovered what was hidden in Que'er's arms - a corner of paper was vaguely visible, and it seemed to be a letter.

She said softly: "Madam, this..."

The maid carefully took out the letter and respectfully presented it to Mrs. Shen. The moment she saw the envelope, Mrs. Shen quickly took it, eagerly tore open the envelope and read it.

The handwriting in the letter was clear: If you want to rescue Young Master Shen, you must exchange him for Shen Siyan, and you must arrive at Huping Mountain at midnight. You are not allowed to bring guards with you, otherwise the safety of Young Master cannot be guaranteed.

After reading the letter, Mrs. Shen felt dizzy and almost couldn't stand.

"Madam! Madam!" The old nanny hurriedly supported her.

"Feng'er, my child..."

Madam Shen choked up, holding the letter tightly in her hand. Apparently, Feng'er had been kidnapped, and the other party demanded Shen Siyan in exchange for his safety. Their target was the eldest prince.

Mrs. Shen panted and sat on the chair with the help of the old nanny, her mind in a mess.

"Madam, we have to find a way to save the eldest young master as soon as possible!" said the old nanny anxiously.

Mrs. Shen remained silent. Feng'er was her only son, and she had to save him no matter what.

But asking for Shen Siyan in exchange made her hesitate - Shen Siyan was crucial to their big plan and there couldn't be any mistakes.

However, with every second that passed, Feng'er was in more danger. Mrs. Shen struggled internally, but finally her eyes became firm - no matter what, she had to save her son!

Feng'er was weak and had no idea how much fear she had experienced. She couldn't delay any longer. Madam Shen stood up and walked quickly towards the villa, where Shen Siyan lived.

The villa was brightly lit under the night sky and the gate was heavily guarded.

Seeing Madam Shen coming, the guard nodded slightly and made way. Madam Shen had already made up her mind that this matter must not be known to Lord Yin.

For the sake of the overall situation, Lord Yin might not agree to exchange Shen Siyan for Shen Feng. But for Mrs. Shen, family affection cannot be separated, and she is determined to save her child even if it goes against the overall plan.

Shen Feng is her own flesh and blood!

Madam Shen gritted her teeth, stepped into the courtyard, and gently pushed open the door of the room where Shen Siyan was. She saw Shen Siyan sitting quietly on the futon, and her heart moved.

"He'll be fine."

She secretly comforted herself: "The poison is under our control. No matter what happens, he will obey me."

With this layer of protection, she no longer worried that Shen Siyan would betray her.

Even if I lose him temporarily, I can find him back. But the most important thing now is that Shen Feng is seriously ill and urgently needs medication, otherwise he may not survive tonight.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Shen was extremely anxious, and she wanted to take Shen Siyan to Huping Mountain to get the medicine immediately. However, she had to act quietly to avoid the attention of Lord Yin.

She stared at Shen Siyan, her hands clenched into fists, waiting for the opportunity to come. Not long after, there were slight footsteps outside the door, and a guard from the Shen Mansion knocked on the door.

Mrs. Shen said without turning her head: "Come in."

The guard entered and bowed respectfully to greet her: "Madam, what can I do for you?"

"Help the Second Young Master change into the clothes you brought quickly. He needs to change completely from head to toe. Did you bring the hat?" Mrs. Shen whispered.

"I've brought it." The guard took out his hat and answered.

Nodding with satisfaction, Madam Shen knew that as long as they put on the bamboo hat, no one would be able to recognize them. She planned to let the guards exchange clothes with Shen Siyan and then secretly take him out.

The guards moved quickly and finished changing clothes in no time.

"Very good, just sit here and don't move." Mrs. Shen ordered.

"Yes." The guard responded and sat down.
