The person’s facial features are handso and elegant, and the head full of white hair is indeed striking.
Everyone was wrong.
It was thought that after Yixuan, the next to reach the Capital should have been the second brother Shujun, who was in Jiangnan. But to their surprise, it was the Big Brother Liang Zhichen, far away at the Golden Triangle border!
Unfortunately, he arrived a step too late. If he had co a few days earlier, or even a few hours, he wouldn’t have missed it. But this ti, it seed destined that his longing would be for naught. The person he had been yearning for could have been seen as soon as he arrived in the Capital, but as fate would have it, they were just a step ahead, one after another.
...
On the surface, it was just a carriage escorted by two Iron Cavalry riders, but Qinghe was always cautious in his actions.
After a night’s journey, upon reaching a town, he imdiately abandoned the original carriage.
Ah Lian and another accompanying Death Soldier changed into more ordinary clothes to avoid standing out. She found an escort agency, claid her surna was Li, and said she was a servant of the Li family. She said her young lady had a fall recently and couldn’t move since, so they were in a hurry to return ho. After paying enough silver, they joined an escort team.
"Oh, this gentleman is quite good-looking!" Escort Army Sun’s eyes lit up as she looked at Qinghe, feeling that despite Qinghe’s deliberate low profile, his composure couldn’t be hidden.
Ah Lian smiled, "You flatter us, Escort Army. This is my lady’s husband, and we entrust you to take care on this journey."
Qinghe smiled, holding soone in his arms, this person was covered with a white cloak, their face obscured, entirely hidden beneath the cloak. However, Escort Army Sun estimated that the ’Young Lady of the Li family’ seed a bit small.
Coincidentally, the escort team departed in the afternoon. Qinghe carried Dong Huiying onto a carriage, with Ah Lian and another Death Soldier accompanying them. However, secretly so Hidden Guards had also slipped into this escort team under various identities, discreetly protecting Qinghe.
Dong Huiying not only couldn’t move but also had her acupoints sealed to make her mute and unconscious, which Qinghe did intentionally to prevent her from speaking and giving herself away. So ever since they reached this town, and continued with Escort Army Sun leaving the town, Dong Huiying remained unconscious.
After the escort team set out, about two hours passed. Two people hurriedly arrived. These two were Shujun and Haoming!
Shujun was feeling very troubled. They were unaware that Qinghe was with their wife, but having co this far from the Capital, he was puzzled about what Qinghe intended, wondering exactly where Qinghe was taking his wife.
When searching for soone, the biggest fear is passing through such a town with a massive flow of people. It was too crowded to find the target, and even Shujun’s tracking technique was ineffectual here, causing him frustration.
Haoming summoned so small animals using animal language. Holding a bag of crushed dry food, he fed these stray cats and then took out a sketchbook, asking these cats to find the person according to it.
But he hadn’t expected that since arriving at the town, Dong Huiying had been sleeping, always wrapped in Qinghe’s cloak, never revealing her face. Even the little animals found it hard to find any leads.
The two were stuck in this town for two days. On the third day, Shujun cald down his mind. He contemplated two potential scenarios. First, their wife was still in this town, second, she had already been taken out of the town.
