There was a hint of surprise in Yu Caiwei's eyes. It would have been fine if he had agreed, but why did he actually start fighting? It seemed like they were not that familiar with each other yet.

In this life, they are just a loving couple on the surface. Behind the scenes, they can only be considered allies at best, and their relationship is rather poor.

Yu Caiwei squatted down and lit the lanterns with candlelight. She looked up and saw rows of lanterns floating in the river. She was mesmerized for a moment.

In her previous life, she was entangled in trivial matters in the Hou Mansion and failed to live the life she should have.

This is her second life living in the city of Bianjing, but this is her first time to come to this Lantern Festival.

"May we stay together till old age."

Yu Caiwei was slightly stunned when she heard the woman's sincere voice.

May they stay together till old age and be together forever. In her previous life, she also had the most sincere and simple grievances like this woman.

"What are you thinking about?"

Xiao Cheng's eyes fell on her face. What happened to her? There was something strange about her.

"nothing."

A cool breeze blew along the river bank, and the lanterns floated downstream.

The two stood by the river for a while. Then they heard a noisy sound not far away. Yu Caiwei immediately looked over curiously.

That seems to be the direction where Ayu and Caiyue left. Could something have happened?

Thinking of this, she immediately walked towards the shore, and Xiao Cheng followed closely behind her.

As soon as she reached a high place, she saw people fleeing everywhere. Yu Caiwei was shocked. What was going on during the Lantern Festival?

"What happened?" Yu Caiwei pulled an aunt over. From her panicked look, it could be seen that she knew what had happened over there.

"A group of people in black were robbing and injuring a lot of people." The auntie said in a panic and left in a hurry after saying this.

Robbery? Who is so bold as to rob under the feet of the emperor?

Yu Caiwei subconsciously wanted to run over there, but Xiao Cheng grabbed her arm from behind and refused to let go no matter how she struggled.

"I'll go find Caiyue and Ayu." Yu Caiwei was a little anxious. The city of Bianjing was in chaos, and she was worried that something might happen to them.

Xiao Cheng wanted to advise her, but her persistence frightened him.

He knew what happened to Caiyue and Ayu in the previous life, so he didn't want Yu Caiwei to suffer the pain of losing her loved ones again.

"Let's go together."

Xiao Cheng held her hand tightly, and they both headed in the same direction.

Yu Caiwei followed behind him, her eyes fell on their clasped hands, and a strange feeling arose in her heart.

The two looked at the chaos in front of them with unhappy expressions. Yu Caiwei immediately looked for Yu Caiyue and A Yu.

There was a large pool of blood on the ground, but no one around was injured and everyone's faces were filled with panic.

Yu Caiwei had a bad feeling in her heart, but she couldn't care less about it at the moment.

"Caiyue! Ayu!"

She was going to find them, no matter what.

Many people were so scared that they squatted on the ground. Yu Caiwei had to look for them one by one until she saw a little man curled up in the corner of the crowd.

She recognized who it was at a glance. She was very familiar with the hairpin because she had just bought it and gave it to Caiyue.

"Caiyue?" Yu Caiwei called cautiously, and the person curled up slowly raised his head. The little face was full of tear marks, and the clothes on the chest were stained with large patches of blood.

This scene made Yu Caiwei recall the ending of Yu Caiyue’s previous life, and her eyes immediately turned red.

"Cai Yue, what happened? Where's A Yu?" She immediately went forward and hugged him, feeling a little scared.

If she fails to protect Caiyue and Ayu in this life, how should she face it?

Yu Caiwei looked around but didn't see A Yu.

Yu Caiyue's face was filled with panic, and she grabbed her sleeves tightly with both hands, "Sister, Ayu was taken away by them, Ayu is gone!"

what!

Yu Caiwei's heart collapsed and she was at a loss for a moment.

"The prince is from Juyuhui."

Ye Bai walked out from the darkness covered in blood. She was wearing black clothes, but one could faintly smell the blood on her body.

Xiao Cheng frowned. The Ju Yu Hui, their people actually came to Bian Jing and dared to take people away in public.

"Xiao Cheng, what's going on? Who are they?" Yu Caiwei spoke immediately. The person in her arms kept shaking, and she kept comforting him.

But she was also worried about A Yu's safety, and she had to bring him back safely.

"Where's Yu Jiang?"

Xiao Cheng looked around. He asked Ye Bai and Yu Jiang to stay with them and protect them, but now there were only two people left.

"Prince, I'm back."

Yu Jiang jumped down from the beam, with a deep wound on his arm that was visible to the bone.

"Prince, we have lost them, but the direction they finally headed was Qingcheng Mountain." He chased them all the way, but he was too badly injured and gradually lost them. Finally, he saw them all get on the wooden bridge of Qingcheng Mountain.

Qingcheng Mountain? Such a familiar place.

"Let the people in the government office settle the people, and we will go back to the government office first." The surroundings were in a mess, and the most important thing right now was for them to settle the people down.

A group of people returned to the Hou Mansion, covered in wounds. The courtyard at the back of the mansion was particularly noisy.

"Master Xiao, you've brought so many patients here that I don't know who to see first." Qi Yue put his hands on his hips. His three-quarters of the space was completely occupied by his people.

He had worked hard to get this place so that he could refine and dry herbs here.

"Look at Yu Jiang first."

Xiao Cheng looked around and Yu Jiang's injury seemed to be more serious.

Qi Yue frowned immediately when she saw Yu Jiang. His injury was indeed serious, and the exposed bones looked scary.

"and many more."

When Qi Yue walked past Ye Bai, she keenly smelled the odor on her body. It was such a strong fishy smell, her injuries must be serious.

"I'm fine, you look after Yu Jiang first." Ye Bai took a step back, and it was this step that made her feel dizzy and she almost fell to the ground.

Qi Yue immediately took out a silver needle and inserted it into her acupuncture points, then picked her up and walked towards the house.

"She's seriously injured. I'll save her first."

Xiao Cheng and Yu Jiang have known Qi Yue for a long time, and seeing how serious he was, they knew he was not lying.

Although he is a little unreliable in daily life, he takes curing diseases and saving lives very seriously.

Yu Caiwei hugged the person in her arms and patted her back gently.

"Cai Yue, don't worry, I'm here." She had never seen such a scene before and was naturally frightened.

"Sister, Ayu is missing. I lost Ayu." Yu Caiyue sobbed. It was all her fault for bringing Ayu there. If they had followed sister all the time, this would never have happened.

"It's my fault, sister. I failed to protect you." Yu Caiwei felt like a knife was stabbing her heart. She was careless.
