Chu Huanyan frowned and looked at Mu Feng subconsciously, "Senior brother, are you going to see the master?"

Since what Mu Feng said last time, she has sent people to inquire about the master, but no news has come yet.

Mu Feng glanced at Chu Huanyan and did not answer her words. He just raised his hands to Xiao Rongxuan and said, "Your Highness, don't worry. I know the importance of this in my heart."

"That's pretty much it." Xiao Rongxuan showed a slight expression of satisfaction and stepped into the imperial city ahead of Chu Huanyan.

Moreover, instead of giving Mu Feng a chance to chat with Chu Huanyan, he urged Mu Feng to leave together.

"Let's go, don't delay Miss Chu."

Chu Huanyan stood there, watching Mu Feng get on the carriage, and then watching the carriage go away.

"Xianyue, pay close attention to the news coming back these days. If there is anything about the master, report it to me immediately."

"Yes, miss, don't worry, you have already given your instructions before, I remember this." Xian Yue said in response.

……

In the blink of an eye, a few days passed.

Since Chu Ziyuan's case was settled, all related matters have been transferred to the Criminal Department.

News came from the Ministry of Punishment early in the morning that the execution date had been set, and Xiao Jinzhi had made an explanation before leaving, so if Chu Huanyan was willing, she could go see Chu Ziyuan on his last journey.

In the room, Chu Huanyan hesitated for a long time, but still did not speak.

"Miss, why don't you go?" Xian Yue sighed in her heart.

Before in the prison, the young lady saw off the third young lady for the last time, and now she went to see off the prince. Although the young lady always said that she no longer had any affection with them, she still felt a little uncomfortable in her heart when she thought about it.

"Xianyue, do you think my parents will blame me?" Chu Huanyan said softly.

"Of course not. Miss, the fate of the prince and the third lady is their own fault. You are not to blame at all." Xian Yue spoke without thinking. After speaking, she seemed worried that her words were not strong enough, and she quickly continued, "And don't you Forget the letter that the Master and Madam left for you, they asked Miss that you should protect yourself first no matter what."

Not to mention the prince's and the third young lady's attitude towards the young lady and the things they did, there was no blood relationship at all. What's more, they killed someone themselves, and the young lady didn't ask them to kill them. Now this outcome has nothing to do with the young lady.

Chu Huanyan turned her head, looked at Xian Yue's nervous look, and couldn't help but laugh.

"Don't worry, I'm not blaming myself here, I just suddenly remembered that I felt a little emotional. As for Chu Ziyuan..." Chu Huanyan paused for a moment, shook her head and said, "Go tell the person who sent the message and say thank you for informing them. , but I’m not feeling well and won’t go.”

The last time she saw Chu Wanyan for the last time, she had something to say, but now facing Chu Ziyuan, she really couldn't think of anything else to say.

And since there is nothing left to say, there is no need to say goodbye.

"Yes, I understand." Xian Yue responded and quickly went out to spread the word.

And when she came back, she brought a piece of news.

"Jiang Zhou left Princess Rongchang's Mansion?" Chu Huanyan frowned, "When was this news?"

"What was just sent back was a message sent by the guards that His Royal Highness had arranged to keep an eye on in secret."

"Where have you gone?" Chu Huanyan asked.

"I said I went to the musical instrument shop and then the teahouse. I should be drinking tea in the teahouse now. It seems like I have nothing to do, so I walked around and relaxed." Xian Yue thought about what she had just reported. replied.

"Relax?" Chu Huanyan frowned.

"Miss, there's no need to worry. Maybe he found the princess's mansion too boring, so he wanted to go out for a walk."

"I'm afraid it's not that simple." Chu Huanyan shook her head and said.

Since coming to the Imperial City, except for the Lantern Festival Lantern Festival, Jiang Zhou probably has never left the Princess Mansion. He had never gone out to relax before, so now that he and Xiao Jinzhi had figured out his identity, he should be even more nervous, so why would he suddenly go out to relax.

Thinking of this, Chu Huanyan called out the secret guards who were secretly protecting her.

"Find Jiang Zhou immediately and find a way to tell him that no matter what he wants to do, he will return to the princess mansion immediately. Don't act rashly."

"Yes, I obey." The secret guard immediately responded and left.

As time passed by, Chu Huanyan sat in the center of the room, feeling increasingly uneasy.

Now, the person in the dark has never shown up. Apart from Grandma Qinfang's handwriting, Jiang Zhou is their only clue.

Now that Xiao Jinzhi is not in the imperial city, nothing can go wrong. If there is any accident on Jiang Zhou's side, it is really not enough to rely on Grandma Qinfang's handwriting to uncover what happened back then.

An hour later, the secret guard sent out finally returned.

"Miss, Jiang Zhou has returned to the princess mansion now."

Hearing this, Chu Huanyan breathed a sigh of relief, "Has he been in the teahouse before? Has he been in contact with anyone?"

"This..." the secret guard hesitated, "according to reports from people who were staring at him, he disappeared for a while. He said he was going to the hut, but later he came in through the back door of the teahouse. During this period, he didn't know he was there. Where."

There were a lot of people in the teahouse today. People who were staring at Jiang Zhou couldn't get too close, and they accidentally lost track of them.

Chu Huanyan took a deep breath. Jiang Zhou indeed had a purpose for leaving the princess mansion today. He must have done something. I just hope that nothing will go wrong while he is away.

"Then did you find an opportunity to meet him and say those words to him?"

"As I said, Jiang Zhou said that he knew about it, and he also said that he hopes to meet the lady at the foot of the mountain outside the imperial city in three days." The secret guard returned the report with his hand in hand.

"Miss, has Jiang Zhou figured it out and is willing to tell the truth?" Xian Yue said.

"If that's the case, it would be perfect, but..." Chu Huanyan paused.

"Miss, are you worried that Jiang Zhou wants to deliberately trick you into leaving the imperial city?" Xian Yue asked.

"That's not the case." Chu Huanyan shook her head, "If Jiang Zhou is unwilling to tell the truth, the best way to save his life is to stay away from me and not have any contact, and he has no reason to plot against me. "

Jiang Zhou understood that being willing to tell the truth was a good thing, but the period when he disappeared still made her feel a little uneasy.

"You can find a way to secretly send a message to Jiang Zhou. I will definitely attend the appointment in three days."

Since there is a possibility that Jiang Zhou is willing to tell the truth, he must go to see him. This opportunity cannot be missed.

The secret guard had already left. Looking at Chu Huanyan's frown, Xian Yue couldn't help but start to worry in her heart.

"Miss, why don't you go and wait until His Highness the Crown Prince comes back?"

"I'm afraid Xiao Jinzhi has just arrived at Cuiheng Mountain. It will be too late for him to return from suppressing the bandits."

For Jiang Zhou, this decision should be difficult to make. If the other party really makes up his mind but they delay, they may not lose their courage in the delay.

"But why is it three days later, and it's still on the outskirts of the Imperial City?" The more Xian Yue thought about it, the more uneasy she felt, "Why don't we just look for opportunities in the Imperial City."

"After all, Jiang Zhou has a special status, and with Lin Zeyuan's incident, he cannot act easily. You can ask someone to check whether Princess Rongchang has any plans to leave the city in three days."
