The mantis stalked the cicada and the oriole, but Ruan Xiushu didn't know that as soon as his horse carriage caught up, it was immediately marked by Qu Qingyu who was buying accessories in the streets.

"Miss, isn't that Second Young Master Ruan?"

"Does he have a tail?" Seeing her enter, Ji Buming immediately turned to look behind her.

"That person is a Thief. He stole something from the main hall." The valet, Xi Ping, was someone who could not hide his words.

"Shut up!" Ruan Xiushu hadn't even weighed the beauty and power before he was exposed by Xi Ping.

was extremely happy when he heard that his second sister was with the thief. He only showed it in front of Ruan Xiushu, but advised him wholeheartedly: "My second sister has always been weak, she must have been deceived by them. Since we have seen it, we naturally cannot ignore it."

Her eloquence was all for Qu Qingge's sake. She also said that if he were to report a bad person, there would definitely be a reward for it in the palace, to the point that Ruan Xiushu was extremely obedient.

Beautiful women were important, but the future was even more important. If he had the help of the Great Hall in the future, seizing the position of Prince Fu would be a piece of cake.

The two carriages left together.

Ji Buming who was in the house immediately noticed it.

"Oh no, you're being followed. This place is no longer safe."

Qu Qingge gritted her teeth in hatred when she saw the insignia of the Duke of Ruan Kingdom's Mansion and her carriage.

"It's them again..." They were indeed her mortal enemies. Even if she had been reborn, even if she had changed her course of action, it would still be in their hands.

She was shocked by this knowledge, and her whole body withered away like an eggplant that had been beaten by frost.

"Don't be afraid, come with me …" Liang Jue pulled her up onto the carriage and they all anxiously retreated.

"Where to now?" Ji Buming lowered his head.

He still needed three more days. As long as three more days, he would be able to complete his task.

He was a little disappointed as he looked at the moss growing on the walls of the courtyard in the alley. He did not blame Qu Qingge, if not for her, they would have long ago become lonely souls under the First Prince's blade.

"You can't leave the city immediately. If Liang Huang finds out about this, he would immediately seal the city, and if he collides with it right now, he would be cast into a trap." Liang Jue remained calm and collected.

In the end, the result of their discussion was that Qu Qingge returned to the Qu Mansion, while Xiao Mu and Xiao Mu followed him.

Qu Qingge stood at the corner and watched as the horse carriage moved further and further away. Thinking of how she had just parted with her, she couldn't help but squeeze her hand.

However, Liang Jue's clear and gentle voice made her feel extremely relaxed, "Hand them over to me and go back peacefully. You cannot admit that you have met them." He raised his hand as if he wanted to pat her hand in consolation, but because he couldn't see his hand sweeping the floor, his pretty face revealed a look of awkwardness, causing Qu Qingge's heart to soften, and suddenly pulled on his sleeves.

Liang Jue took the opportunity and grabbed her wrist.

The two hands made contact, and within a split-second, a fiery passion had flashed across their hearts. It had sunk deep into their hearts, and something was growing like a seed in their hearts...

"Cough cough …" Ji Buming saw that they were standing very close to each other, where the sunlight shone down from the west and onto their bodies.

When Qu Qingge returned to the Qu Mansion, he asked around for more information and she heard that the inside of the city was already chaotic. Zhu Biao, who was in charge of investigating this matter, had been forced by the First Prince to apprehend the two thieves because he had failed to search outside the city in the first place.

Now that all four gates had been sealed, the people of patrolling camp could only return empty-handed. They had no choice but to guard the nearby alleys and conduct a floor search one by one.

She also found out that because Zhu Biao had received the news and rushed to the courtyard previously, but saw that it was already empty. In her fury, she smashed all the things in the courtyard to pieces, and before she left, she even ordered her subordinates to burn the courtyard down.

Qu Qingge was shocked, "It's burned?" The medicine to treat Liang Jue's eyes was still there, among it were a few extremely valuable medicinal ingredients.

This was Hua Ruzheng's dividing line —
