The masked n ran even faster.
In a mont, they went up the mountain and disappeared without a trace.
Behind them, the coachn, won, and guards of the ladies, one by one, watched as Yan Pei was carried away. While they were glad that the ladies escaped unscathed, they couldn’t help but discuss.
So of the ladies behind them, although they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, now all knew that Yan Pei had been abducted by bandits.
It wouldn’t take long, once they returned to the mansion, for this news to spread throughout the Capital City.
Jiang Youzhi waited until those people ran far, and then he beca anxious. Yun Jiao’s carriage was already out of sight, and beside her carriage, there were only Lin Shuo and a few guards.
The guards of the Princess Mansion on the ground climbed up one after another, mounted their horses, and galloped forward.
After running desperately for a while, they finally caught up with the carriages ahead.
Jiang Youzhi looked at that carriage, terrified that when the curtain opened, the person inside would be gone.
He called out carefully beside the carriage, "Jiao Jiao—"
Yun Jiao was still holding a bamboo tube used to spray itching powder, and upon hearing his voice, she quickly lifted the curtain, "What happened just now?"
Jiang Youzhi saw the bamboo tube in her hand, his lips couldn’t help but curl up slightly, and he said softly, "Nothing much, just a few petty thieves, already chased away."
Yun Jiao patted her chest, "That’s good."
Jiang Youzhi was still worried, afraid that those people might discover the wrong person and co back, he kept urging the coachman to speed up.
Soon, he saw the city gate from afar, and Jiang Youzhi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
At this ti, Yan Beichen had just stepped out of the Princess Mansion’s gate.
Four guards from the Yan Mansion galloped over, and upon arrival, they swiftly dismounted and knelt on the ground, "Reporting to the Young Master, we encountered a group of masked n at Niu Family Ridge and Miss was abducted."
These people didn’t choose to return to the mansion to deliver the news because Yan Beichen was at the Princess Mansion, which was closer.
Yan Beichen’s face imdiately darkened like the bottom of a pot.
He cursed angrily, "Fools, all damn fools!"
He glanced at the servant beside him, scolding angrily, "What are you standing around for? Do I need to teach you what to do?"
The servant quickly rode away; he had to hurry to get those people to release Miss back ho.
Yan Beichen then said to the four guards on the ground, "Don’t let this matter leak out. I’ll send soone to search, Miss will be back soon."
The guards all responded affirmatively.
Yan Beichen stared at them, "Tell carefully what happened just now."
The guards described the events, one guard emphasized, "The Young Master of the Duke of England Mansion was chivalrous, as soon as he saw those masked n, he ca over to guard Miss’s carriage."
"The guards of the Princess Mansion also helped us defend for a while, but there were too many of them, and the Princess Mansion guards couldn’t hold them."
Yan Beichen listened and sneered repeatedly, what a Young Master, shifting the trouble, letting him lift a stone and drop it on his own foot.
He was used to scheming against others, but didn’t expect this ti to be sched by a fledgling.
This action was impromptu, naturally, there were many places in the plan that weren’t thorough, and it’s normal for people to take advantage of it.
The trouble was, after startling the enemy, it beca even harder to get Miss Gu.
Thinking of this, Yan Beichen was anxious, got on a horse, and lashed the horse’s butt fiercely, causing it to gallop away.
Jiang Youzhi and Yun Jiao had already returned to the Duke Mansion.
Upon returning to the mansion, Jiang Youzhi went to Jiang Zhongxing’s study and relayed the events of the day’s attack.
