The young monk laughed gleefully. His expression was clearly mocking Su Ying.

He glanced behind Su Ying. “Your Highness, have you ever heard of the saying ‘one is too smart for one’s own good?’ Do you really think that we would believe that Hea Shouyi could be instigated to rebel? Hehehe…”

A white fog suddenly rose around the young monk. Su Ying looked at the rising white fog and slowly raised the tranquilizer gun in her hand to shoot.

Pfft! The young monk was. .h.i.t by the dart. As the white fog dissipated, he fell to the ground.

Su Ying stepped forward and grabbed him by the collar, lifting him up. “Speak. What is your real purpose for showing up here?”

The young monk wanted to fight back, but he felt weak all over. He stared at Su Ying in shock, wondering what kind of hidden weapon she had used to achieve such a quick effect!

“To kill… kill you…”

“It’s not only that. You probably don’t want to end up like that woman. Speak!”

The young monk looked at the blood splatters not far away and his body became weaker. “We are supposed to stall you. If we can’t kill you, we have to stall you and not let you return to the city before noon.”

The viciousness in Su Ying’s eyes intensified. “Stall me in order to attack who?”

“Don’t… don’t know… We’re just following orders after accepting the money…”

“Where is your master? Where is the Red Demon’s lair?”

The young monk stared blankly with his eyes and did not answer.

“Speak!” Su Ying tightened her grip on his collar.

“I… I’ll talk. They are… are… Ugh!”

Before he could finish, his head lolled to one side and he stopped breathing.

Su Ying flung the corpse to the ground and quickly went in hot pursuit. She pursued to the front hall of the temple, but other than the guards who had been poisoned, there was no one else.

Su Ying walked up to the guards to check on them. They had all fainted from the incense smoke.

She took out some silver needles and stabbed one each into the spot between their thumb and index finger. The pain made the guards wake up.

“Your… Your Highness…”

“We’ve been ambushed. Let’s go down the mountain and return to the city.”

The guards quickly got up from the ground.

Su Ying didn’t plan to go after those people anymore. She urgently wanted to know what was happening in the city.

In order to get back to the city as soon as possible, Su Ying unharnessed the horse from the horse carriage and rode the horse back to the city.

When she returned to Prince Qi’s Manor and inquired, she found out that Xiao Jin had gone to Duke Zhenguo’s Residence with the two children. However, Xiao Jin had just sent people back to Prince Qi’s Manor to mobilize people to go to Duke Zhenguo’s Residence.

Something must have happened at Duke Zhenguo’s Residence if Xiao Jin mobilized the guards to go there.

Su Ying turned around and rode her horse to Duke Zhenguo’s Residence.

“Your Highness…” The guards of Prince Qi’s Manor standing guard outside the entrance of Duke Zhenguo’s Residence immediately stepped forward and bowed when they saw Su Ying.

Su Ying quickly dismounted. “What happened? Why did His Highness mobilize the guards to come here?”

“Your Highness, the Young Princess has gone missing in Duke Zhenguo’s Residence.”

Ling had gone missing!

Su Ying’s eyes widened abruptly. G.o.ddammit!

After Su Ying inquired about Xiao Jin’s location, she immediately rushed to his side.

“Mother! Father, look! Mother is here,” The older toddler Ji was the first to see Su Ying rushing toward them.

Xiao Jin turned around and saw Su Ying walking over with an ominous expression.

For some reason, Xiao Jin felt a chill run down his spine.

“What happened exactly? How did Ling disappear?”

Xiao Jin frowned deeply. “At that time, Ling and the rest were playing in the outer courtyard. Duke Zhenguo and 1 were watching from inside the house. After she said she was going to the outhouse, she disappeared.”

Su Ying’s almond-shaped eyes darkened even more as she turned to glare at Duke Zhenguo. Duke Zhenguo’s pair of h.o.a.ry brows furrowed, and when he saw Su Ying looking at him, he cleared his throat and said, “This matter is indeed due to the negligence of our Duke Zhenguo’s Residence. I will definitely locate the girl for you. Don’t worry.”

Su Ying took a deep breath and suppressed the panic in her heart.

She couldn’t panic at this juncture. She had to stay calm.

However, her overly fast heart rate betrayed her strong self-control.

Xiao Jin sensed Su Ying’s unusual emotions and grabbed her hand. “Don’t worry. We’ll definitely locate her!”

Su Ying closed her eyes and tried her best to suppress the panic in her heart. This was the first time… the first time she was so fl.u.s.tered that she wanted to go crazy ever since she arrived in this world. It was just like how she had watched her Mama leave her back then, and that fear had once again enveloped her.

“Xiao Jin, Ling will definitely be fine.”

“Definitely!” Xiao Jin’s expression was extremely certain.

Xiao Jin’s palms were covered in a cold sweat. His mood wasn’t any more relaxed than Su Ying’s, but he had to remain calm at this time. He absolutely couldn’t lose his composure.

At this moment, in Little Madam Zhou’s courtyard within Duke Zhenguo’s Residence, Fu Jun looked at the unconscious Ling. His eyes were filled with the pleasure of revenge!

After Little Madam Zhou was sent away, this courtyard was vacated. After he got Ling here, Fu Jun hid her in a secret compartment in the closet. Fu Jun had accidentally found out about that secret compartment. If he hid the girl there, Xiao Jin would not be able to locate the girl even if he turned the whole Duke Zhenguo’s Residence upside down.

Fu Jun had already planned it out. After Xiao Jin and the others left, he would take the girl out. That way, no one would know that he was the one who had taken her away!

“Xiao Jin, Su Ying, so you guys think that you’re very powerful? Now that I’ve taken your daughter away, let’s see what you guys can do!”

Fu Jun smiled even more happily when he thought of Xiao Jin’s anxious look.

In the front courtyard, Su Ying listened to Xiao Jin’s detailed account of what happened.

Xiao Jin definitely wouldn’t lie to her. Based on the time that Xiao Jin mentioned, the girl must still be inside Duke Zhenguo’s Residence, but somehow, she just couldn’t be located.

Su Ying narrowed her eyes. “There must be some spot that we missed. Let’s split up and search. You continue to search the front courtyard. I’ll go to the back courtyard to take a look.”

Xiao Jin was a man, so he couldn’t enter the back courtyard of Duke Zhenguo’s Residence where the women and young ladies stayed. He could only let the maidservants search. He was worried that they might have missed something.

Xiao Jin nodded and continued to search the front courtyard with Ji.

Just as Su Ying was about to head to the back courtyard, Fu Zheng followed her. “I’ll go with you, Your Highness.”

Su Ying didn’t refuse his help. Fu Zheng was a member of Duke Zhenguo’s Residence. He was bound to be more familiar with the place.

She brought Fu Zheng along and started searching the nearest courtyard.

The person living in this courtyard was the Second Young Mistress of Duke Zhenguo’s Residence. When the Second Young Mistress saw Su Ying, she did not dare to stop her and could only let her enter to look for Ling.

Su Ying didn’t let the other people in either. She only brought Fu Zheng along to search the courtyard methodically.

The Second Young Mistress felt a little better when she saw that Su Ying didn’t intentionally mess things up when she was rummaging through them.

Su Ying had even looked under the bed, but still couldn’t find anything.

When the Second Young Mistress saw that Su Ying was almost done searching, she stepped forward and said, “Your Highness, don’t worry. 1 have no enmity with the Young Princess and will definitely not hide her.”

Su Ying merely glanced at her indifferently. “You’d better not.” With that, she left with Fu Zheng.

Su Ying continued to walk down to the next courtyard.

Fu Zheng looked at the courtyard. “This courtyard used to be where Little Madam Zhou lived. It was left vacant after she was sent away.”

Su Ying murmured her acknowledgment, pushed open the courtyard door, and walked in.

Inside the room, Fu Jun heard the commotion and quickly got up to put Ling into the closet. Then, he stood up and turned around in time to see Su Ying and the rest walking in..
