Although Jiang Dali lost his wife, he was loyal and worked hard. There were still many people in Xiaohe Village who were willing to marry her.
Jiang Dali didn't look at many girls, and quickly chose a girl from the next village. She was a widower, and her fiancé died of illness before she got married. Although she looked ordinary, she had a gentle and slender temperament, and she didn't seem to be a troublemaker. It was settled.
After making the decision, Jiang Dali set out to Dahe Town to buy things for the wedding.
As soon as he finished the purchase, he saw a line of officers and soldiers holding portraits looking for people from each house. He glanced at the portraits inadvertently and sketched them with a few simple strokes, showing a clear and beautiful appearance and dark hair on the temples.
It's clearly Xue Yu.
Jiang Dali's expression was cold, and he pretended to be curious and tried a few words, "May I ask some officials, who is the woman above? She is so beautiful, what has she committed?"
The officers and soldiers did not chase him away, but replied, "It is said above that this woman stole the noble man's jade pendant. If you see it or know the clues, you can report it to the government and I will reward you with a hundred taels of silver."
The people around heard it and discussed it one after another, but they felt that it was beyond appearances.
Jiang Dali didn't believe it.
Thinking that the officers and soldiers were wanted in Dahe Town, and Xue Yu also lived in the nearby Xiaohe Village, she was afraid that she would be discovered sooner or later.
No, he had to tell Xue Yu quickly.
Jiang Dali withdrew from the crowd and hurried to the gate of Dahe Town.
Suddenly, they heard the thunderous sound of horse hooves not far away. The people subconsciously gave way to a wide road and couldn't help but look over.
Jiang Dali also followed and looked, and suddenly saw a man riding a black horse in the middle. He had a broad back, a crane-like posture, a sharp and cold face, and his whole body was filled with a huge coercive aura that made people breathless.
He was clearly the nobleman who took Xue Yu away that day! Why does he appear in Dahe Town?
When the magistrate of Dahe Town saw the nobleman from the capital, his face was filled with a flattering smile, "Sir, why are you here in person?"
Wei Jingchen got off his horse and said coldly, "Have you found him?"
Jiang Dali could no longer hear what he said clearly, his head was pounding, and a thought suddenly passed through his heart, he was looking for Xue Yu!
At the same time, he realized how noble the man's status was. Even the county magistrate, whom he rarely saw in his life, was so flattering. It showed that the man's background was even more noble and unimaginable.
Suddenly, a cold and dazzling gaze fell on him, piercing his skin like a knife. Looking subconsciously, he suddenly ran into a pair of dark and deep eyes, which contained monstrous anger, just waiting for someone. A critical point, on the verge of breaking out.
Jiang Dali quickly lowered his head, not daring to look any further.
It wasn't until the cold gaze on his body disappeared and the noise around him gradually faded away that Jiang Dali slowly moved his body, sweating like raindrops.
He didn't dare to delay any more and hurriedly left the city. He didn't dare to delay for a moment and ran to the foot of the mountain.
Hearing that Xue Yu was going to Dahe Town, she didn't care about anything, "No, you can't go! I saw someone in Dahe Town looking for you with your portrait!"
Meng Liang's eyes suddenly became sharp and he looked at Jiang Dali, "What do you mean by this?"
Jiang Dali told everything he saw.
Hearing this, Xue Yu's snow-white face was filled with astonishment, and a hint of fear flashed across her face. She never expected that Wei Jingchen would catch up so quickly!
She should have thought of it earlier.
As the crown prince of a country, Wei Jingchen has immense power and influence. She is just a little girl, so she cannot escape his grasp.
Moreover, he is arrogant and arrogant, so how could he allow anyone to disobey him?
If she fell into the hands of Wei Jingchen, it was almost impossible to imagine what kind of miserable end she would end up with.
Meng Liang was also shocked.
Maybe the relationship between Xue Yu and the prince is not as simple as she said, otherwise why would the prince ignore the affairs of the capital and rush after her.
Jiang Dali's expression was full of worry, "Third brother and sister, although I don't know what happened between you and that young master, you should leave quickly. Maybe you will find him here soon."
Xue Yu looked at Xiaotuanzi who was moaning in pain and said firmly, "No, Bao'er is in severe pain now. I have to go to Dahe Town to find a doctor for him."
Meng Liang was silent for a moment, "But if you go on this trip, you will most likely be caught."
Xue Yu's eyelashes trembled, and her voice was slightly choked as she prayed, "Brother Meng Liang, please, Bao'er is still so young, if anything happens..."
Meng Liang followed the order of the prince and rescued Xue Yu. Now that she was looking at him pitifully, Meng Liang couldn't stand it anymore and thought of a compromise, "There are officers and soldiers searching in Dahe Town now. I will lead the search." Bao'er goes to the town to find a doctor, and you stay at home."
Xue Yu was a little worried and insisted on following, but finally decided to let Xue Yu wait at the tea stall outside Dahe Town.
Meng Liang pondered for two seconds and then responded.
Xue Yu said thank you to Jiang Dali before getting on the carriage, and hurried to Dahe Town.
Jiang Dali looked at the carriage that gradually disappeared from his sight, pursed his lips, and just hoped that everything would be safe.
When we arrived at Dahe Town, it was already Shenshi, the clouds were heavy, and there was no daylight.
The doctor opened Bao'er's eyelids, checked his pulse again, and stroked his gray beard. "It's not a big problem. I'll prescribe a prescription later. Take the medicine here and drink it for three or four days and you'll be fine."
Meng Liang was relieved when he heard the doctor's words, and immediately left the city gate without any delay.
Tea stall.
Xue Yu wore a curtain hat, and the white gauze hung down, completely covering her appearance and figure, making it almost impossible to see anything.
The chatter of guests came to my ears, "I don't know what's going on in Dahe Town recently. Officers and soldiers are searching people everywhere with portraits."
"Don't you know yet? I heard that a thief stole the noble man's jade pendant. He didn't know how precious the jade pendant was, so he searched for it like this."
"..."
Xue Yu turned a deaf ear, thinking all about Bao'er who had a fever. She didn't know what happened to Bao'er and Meng Liang.
At this moment, the sound of horse hooves gradually sounded not far away, and the sound reached his ears. A black figure riding a horse passed through his eyes and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Xue Yu subconsciously clenched her sleeves and her back tensed. Although she could not see the man's face clearly, she recognized it was Wei Jingchen almost instantly!
The direction I thought of leaving was Xiaohe Village.
In other words, the man had just gone to Xiaohe Village to search.
Xue Yu suddenly felt a sense of joy. Fortunately, she and Meng Liang had left early, otherwise they would have fallen into Wei Jingchen's hands.
At this time, a high-pitched neighing sound sounded in the ears, followed by several more, and the sound of horse hooves also stopped.
A pair of unhurried footsteps sounded beside her, and a pair of black gold-encrusted boots appeared in sight.
Xue Yu's heart suddenly rose to her throat, and she clenched her hands tightly in her sleeves.
It's...Wei Jingchen.
