Su Yunxuan looked puzzled, "Brother Changfeng, why don't you go to Zixi's place?"

"Why, you really don't want to go to my place?" Su Changfeng deliberately changed the subject, subconsciously trying to hide the fact that Ye Zixi was kidnapped.

Su Yunxuan blushed upon hearing this, and said hesitantly, "No... no, I just asked Ruofeng to tell Zixi something when I went out, and I went to see her when I came back..."

She paused at this point, and her memory instantly came back to her mind. She looked at Su Changfeng in surprise and asked, "How did I get back to the Princess's Mansion? I seem to remember that in the palace, it was Feng Yuqi who suddenly rushed in and saved Miss Pei and me..."

"He saved you? What happened when you went to the palace?" Su Changfeng interrupted.

Su Yunxuan nodded, recalled for a while, and began to tell Su Changfeng what happened after she entered the palace.

Worried that Su Yunxuan might catch a cold, Su Changfeng listened attentively and walked quickly.

When Su Yunxuan talked about how the maids forced her to drink an unknown poison, Su Changfeng felt a strong sense of heartache and self-blame, which made him lose control of his emotions for a while. He stopped by the lake and started coughing violently.

Seeing this, Su Yunxuan hurriedly broke free and gently stroked his back, asking worriedly, "Is Brother Changfeng okay?"

"No... cough... I'm fine, you don't have to... worry, go on."

Not wanting her to see him in such a miserable state, Su Changfeng quickly turned his back, leaned over, grabbed his clothes at his chest, and tried his best to stop coughing.

Knowing what he was thinking, Su Yunxuan stood aside and said with a smile: "I have never been able to find a chance to contact them before, and I am very happy to be brought into the palace by the princess. I met Emperor Fenglan, the Queen Mother, and Concubine Shen. I finally stopped traveling outside. One day, I will find out the truth..."

Before she could finish her words, Su Changfeng suddenly pulled her into his arms and held her tightly.

"Yunxuan, I'm sorry, I'm sorry," he said.

When he heard her words, he realized that he was wrong again.

He promised her to tell her everything and face it with her...

Su Yunxuan was stunned by the hug. When she heard his apology, she hurriedly said, "Brother Changfeng once said that he hoped I would never use these three words to you. Now I want to say this to you as well."

"Okay." Su Changfeng nodded cautiously.

He pinched Su Yunxuan's shoulders and distanced them from each other. He stared into her eyes and said nervously, "I'm going to tell you something. You have to promise me not to be anxious after you hear it."

Seeing her nod in agreement, he continued, "Not long after you entered the palace yesterday, Zixi was captured from the Princess's residence. We have already..."

Su Yunxuan was so frightened when she heard this that her body suddenly tilted, and a chill instantly spread throughout her body.

Su Changfeng quickly raised his hand to support her, and spoke faster, "We already know that they took Zixi away to deal with Feng Yuqi. Zixi was smeared with Buhuoyin, and Feng Yuqi has gone to rescue her. Yan Yu..."

"They? Who are they?" Su Yunxuan interrupted with an uneasy tone.

"I guess it's Prince De's faction." Su Changfeng helped her tighten her cloak.

"Was he captured from the Princess's Mansion?" Su Yunxuan was incredulous. She remembered Feng Yuqi saying that no one dared to break into the Princess's Mansion privately.

Su Changfeng nodded, and pulled Su Yunxuan up, wanting to take her onto the boat that Ruofeng had rowed.

Su Yunxuan was unwilling, she grabbed Su Changfeng's hand and said anxiously: "I want to go to Xingyue Pavilion..."

"I know you're worried, but can you go back and change your clothes first? I'll accompany you no matter what you want to do later." Su Changfeng interrupted and advised, "If you catch a cold, what will happen to Zixi?"

Su Yunxuan did not refuse again, and the two returned to the lakeside pavilion together.

Along the way, Su Changfeng told Su Yunxuan everything about how he went to the inn outside the city to meet Alizhi and went to Xingyue Pavilion to pick her up and take her back to the Princess's Mansion.

Knowing that he had kidnapped Fenglan's eldest prince Feng Shenyi and Yan Yu, Su Yunxuan was shocked but only asked a few simple questions. She believed in Su Changfeng, and at this moment her whole heart was concerned about whether Ye Zixi was safe.

After changing clothes hurriedly, Su Yunxuan once again suggested going to Xingyue Pavilion to check whether Feng Yuqi had found Ye Zixi safely.

Su Changfeng stopped her and told Su Yunxuan that he had sent Ruoying to keep an eye on Xingyue Pavilion. If Feng Yuqi came back, Ruoying would definitely come back to report.

If Ruoying hasn't returned yet, it means there is still no news from Feng Yuqi.

Upon hearing this, Su Yunxuan looked towards the bright sky outside, her heart rising into her throat again, filled with anxiety.

All night long!

Why has Feng Yuqi not brought Zixi back after searching for a whole night?

Seeing that her hands and feet were trembling with worry, Su Changfeng pulled her to sit at the table with heartache, poured her a cup of hot tea and put it in her hand, and ordered Ruofeng to bring some easily digestible food.

Su Yunxuan didn't even take a sip of the tea, and when Su Changfeng brought her food, no matter how Su Changfeng tried to persuade her, Su Yunxuan refused to take a bite.

Su Changfeng had no choice but to agree to take her to Yan Yu, hoping to relieve her anxiety.

Even though he still felt that it was impossible to get any information from Yan Yu.

But as long as it can help Su Yunxuan relieve some of her anxiety, it is worth it for him to accompany her.

Yan Yu was locked in a room in Jinggu Garden. The two pushed the door open and saw Yan Yu lying quietly on the bed. Although her hands and feet were tied, her hair and clothes were not messy at all.

Seeing the two of them come in, Yan Yu tilted his head and smiled as a greeting, then stared at the ceiling of the bed in a daze as before.

Su Yunxuan walked to the bedside and pleaded, "Master Yan, please tell me, where did they take my sister?"

Yan Yu turned his head again, stared at Su Yunxuan for a while, and said apologetically: "I betrayed your sister, I'm sorry."

His tone was sincere. Su Yunxuan raised her hand to help him sit up, and Su Changfeng hurried over to do it for her.

Yan Yu sat up, glanced at the two of them, and said with a gentle smile: "You are very good. You should not stay in Fenglan. You should return to Yunsheng as soon as possible."

"What do you mean?" Su Yunxuan asked subconsciously.

Yan Yu didn't answer, but looked towards the door and asked, "Is she back?"

"Who?" Su Yunxuan asked.

"Does she not want to see me anymore?" Yan Yu laughed at himself, his eyes moist.

"No. She hasn't returned home yet." Su Changfeng answered first.

As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Yu suddenly turned around and looked over. His dull eyes suddenly seemed to light up, filled with hope.

Su Changfeng looked at her and pulled Su Yunxuan, who was about to ask her questions, and walked out.

Su Yunxuan was puzzled, but Su Changfeng took her faster. When they were outside, Su Changfeng let go of Su Yunxuan and said, "You can't find out anything."

"How do you know if you don't try?" Su Yunxuan was unwilling to give up. She stared at Yan Yu who was still sitting on the bed in a daze.

"Believe me. Let's wait for the princess to come back and ask him. He will definitely explain." Su Changfeng persuaded again. After that, he turned around and ordered Ruofeng, who was waiting at the side, to go to the gate of the mansion to wait for the princess to return, and told him to invite Jinggu Garden immediately once the princess returned.
