A few seconds later, he looked firmly at Jiang Peihuan and said, “Eldest Miss, rest assured, from this moment on, 1 will make sure that the master does not exert any strength.”
In the time that followed, Han Feng stayed close to Xiao Nanye, hardly leaving his side.
After Jiang Peihuan treated Xiao Nanye’s wound, she left the man’s tent directly.
That night, Jiang Peihuan did not rest in Xiao Nanye’s tent. Until the next day, Xiao Nanye had not seen Jiang Peihuan appear before him.
Xiao Nanye, who had waited all night, could not hold back any longer.
“What are you doing?”
Just as he reached the entrance of the tent, he saw Han Feng standing in front of him.
Han Feng swallowed his saliva when he saw Xiao Nanye’s cold expression. Then, he said softly, “Master, 1 think you should rest well. If Eldest Miss finds out that you hurt yourself again, she will definitely be angry.”
Hearing Jiang Peihuan’s name, the anger in Xiao Nanye’s eyes dissipated a little.
However, when he spoke to Han Feng, the man’s expression was still cold. “You have learned to handle me well now.”
“I wouldn’t dare.”
Han Feng couldn’t help but mutter, but when Xiao Nanye looked over, he quickly shut his mouth.
“I injured my hand, not my leg. I’m going out for a walk.”
Hearing this, Han Feng did not stop Xiao Nanye any further.
Just as Xiao Nanye stepped out of the tent, he saw a hurried Jiang Changbai. He quickly approached and asked, “Where is Huan Er?”
“Isn’t Huan Er in your tent?”
Seeing that Jiang Changbai was also puzzled, Xiao Nanye frowned and proceeded to move forward.
At this moment, Jiang Peihuan was accompanied by Lin Xingchen, after someone in Jiangzhou city.
“Eldest Miss, it seems like the person went that way, but over there are the homes of common people, and it wouldn’t be appropriate for us to go there.”
Ye Xiao looked at the urban area in front of her, frowning.
Hearing her words, Jiang Peihuan said in a low voice, “Let’s go back first.”
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Peihuan turned to Ye Xiao and said, “Arrange for people to keep watch at each intersection. If there is any movement, notify me immediately.”
“Yes.”
“Eldest Miss, who were you chasing just now?”
“It was someone under my father’s command.”
After saying this, Jiang Peihuan said nothing more.
Because King Chujiang was already dead, and King Chujiang’s mansion was under Jiang Cheng’s control, Jiang Peihuan decided to go into the city to buy some things.
But as soon as she arrived in the city, she saw Meng Yi’s figure.
Jiang Peihuan did not know why Meng Yi would appear here, but she knew that there must be some conspiracy involved.
However, as Jiang Peihuan pursued, Meng Yi disappeared.
Having been in the army for many years, Meng Yi was agile. That’s why Jiang Peihuan had Ye Xiao call for Lin Xingchen, but they still lost him.
Jiang Peihuan was not in the mood for shopping. After instructing Ye Xiao, she returned to the military camp.
When she reached the entrance of the camp, she saw that Jiang Changbai and Xiao Nanye were preparing to go out.
“Where have you been, Huan Er?”
Seeing Jiang Peihuan, Jiang Changbai’s eyes were filled with worry.
Xiao Nanye, on the other hand, subconsciously looked over Jiang Peihuan, and upon seeing that she wasn’t injured, he finally let out a sigh of relief.
Seeing the worry in everyone’s eyes, Jiang Peihuan softly said, “I’m fine.”
Then, Jiang Peihuan entered Xiao Nanye’s tent, and Jiang Changbai followed her in.
After sitting down, Jiang Peihuan turned to Jiang Changbai and said, “Elder Brother, I saw Uncle Meng.”
“Why is he here?”
Hearing Jiang Peihuan’s words, Jiang Changbai’s eyes were full of surprise.
“The person you are talking about is Meng Yi?”
Xiao Nanye already knew about the conflict between Meng Yi and the Jiang family, so he whispered when he heard the conversation between the siblings.
Hearing Xiao Nanye’s words, Jiang Peihuan nodded.
Then, Jiang Peihuan continued, “Elder Brother, I don’t know why Uncle Meng came here, but he must have some kind of plot. We have to find him.”
“But Jiangzhou City is neither too big nor too small; where are we going to look?”
Jiang Peihuan didn’t say anything and looked at Xiao Nanye.
Meeting Jiang Peihuan’s gaze, Xiao Nanye promptly said, “Are you thinking of asking Jiang Cheng for help?”
“Yes.”
Facing Xiao Nanye’s gaze, Jiang Peihuan replied, “The Chujiang Royal Mansion has been in Jiangzhou for many years, almost as if it’s the local emperor. As long as he helps, we will definitely find Meng Yi.”
“Han Feng?”
Hearing Jiang Peihuan’s words, Xiao Nanye immediately shouted to the outside of the tent.
Just as Xiao Nanye’s voice fell, Han Feng walked in.
“Master?”
“Go and call Jiang Cheng. Tell him that 1 has something to discuss with him.”
“Yes.”
An hour later, Jiang Cheng was brought to Xiao Nanye’s camp. When he heard that Xiao Nanye wanted to see him, his eyes were full of panic.
Seeing Xiao Nanye sitting in the main seat, he hurriedly stepped forward to pay his respects, “Greetings, Your Highness.”
“Jiang Cheng, I called you here today because I have a few questions for you.”
“If Your Highness has any questions, feel free to ask. I will definitely tell you everything I know.”
“Do you know Meng Yi?”
Hearing Xiao Nanye’s question, Jiang Cheng’s eyes showed a trace of confusion and doubt. Jiang Peihuan’s gaze was fixed on Jiang Cheng’s face. Seeing that his expression didn’t seem to be fake, she gently said, “Young Master Jiang, 1 wonder if anyone has come from the capital to look for King Chujiang recently?”
“Yes.”
Upon hearing Jiang Peihuan’s question, Jiang Cheng fell silent. After thinking for a moment, he nodded.
Seeing his nod, both Jiang Peihuan and Jiang Changbai’s eyes showed a trace of joy. She subconsciously asked, “Young Master Jiang, do you know who came, and what their purpose was in seeking King Chujiang?”
“I don’t know who the visitor is. I only heard that he came to seek cooperation with my father.”
At this point, Jiang Peihuan was even more certain that the visitor was Meng Yi.
As for who would cooperate with King Chujiang, she could more or less guess.
Turning to Jiang Cheng, Jiang Peihuan continued, “Young Master Jiang, could I ask for your help?”
“Eldest Miss Jiang, if you need anything, just tell me.”
Jiang Cheng already knew that Jiang Peihuan was to be Xiao Nanye’s future queen, so he was very courteous to her.
Jiang Peihuan looked at Jiang Cheng and simply explained her plan to find Meng Yi.
Hearing her words, Jiang Cheng nodded, “Rest assured, Eldest Miss Jiang, 1 will cooperate fully.”
Inside Jiangzhou City.
In a farmhouse.
Meng Yi sat in a chair in the house, his eyes full of anxiety.
The homeowner, a middle-aged man, saw Meng Yi’s anxious demeanor and whispered, “General Meng, the city is now full of people looking for you. You can’t go out for the time being.”
Hearing the man’s words, Meng Yi’s eyes were filled with unhappiness, but he nodded, “I know. I’m just worried that if Jiang Peihuan and Jiang Changbai find me here in Jiangzhou, it will surely cause trouble.”
“With so many residents in this city, even if they search house by house, it will take a long time. I believe they won’t find me here.”
“Knock, knock…”
