Chapter 148 In Danger



Chapter 148 In Danger

Huiying and the guard climbed over the wall and left.

Yan Yun walked forward, but her clothes were already too small, and only a rather thin person could barely fit into them.

After the clothes were put on, Yan Yun hurriedly said, "We need to get out of here quickly, but you have to keep your head down."

Yan Yun lowered his head and took a tattered cloth from the side to cover his head.

She and the man walked straight out through the main gate.

When Yan Yun's attendants saw the person dressed in Yan Yun's clothes, they felt something was amiss and were about to investigate when Yan Yun coldly said, "You may continue walking forward."

Yan Yun, accompanied by the person beside him, boarded the carriage.

The coachman looked at Yan Yun and asked, "Is Miss returning to Zheng Courtyard?"

"Instead of going back to the garden, I'll wander around."

Although Yan Yun was also guessing, and she wasn't sure if Shi Yunjun's servants would take the risk to arrest her, she had this feeling.

Those people will not let things rest once they discover Huiying.

Yan Yun looked at the person following her and gently comforted her, "Don't worry, there are so many people around, it'll be alright. If nothing happens, I'll have a carriage bring you back."

The man shook his head and said, "Miss, you've thought of everything. There's no need for a carriage to take me. I'll take you back to your residence and then come back myself."

While Yan Yun worried about them, they were also worried about Yan Yun. They all felt that Yan Yun was like a benefactor to them. After all, for people like them, life was just waiting to die, but Yan Yun was like a ray of light that instantly illuminated their lives.

"If I can protect Miss, I will be happy to do so."

Yan Yunying gently lifted the curtain and looked outside.

There were also quite a few stiff-looking people walking around in the surrounding area.

Yan Yun lowered the carriage curtain.

As they were moving forward, the carriage, which had been moving steadily, suddenly crashed into something with a loud bang. The person next to Yan Yun reached out and blocked Yan Yun.

Yan Yunyi grabbed her shoulders.

"Don't worry. If anything happens, just run and tell Zheng Jihua that it was the Shi family who took me away."

Just as Yan Yun was speaking, several men in black rushed up, and the coachman got into a fight with them.

Just then, the carriage door was kicked open, and the woman who was with Yan Yun immediately shielded him with her body, only to be hit in the chest by the wooden plank.

"Miss, be careful."

Before she could finish speaking, the person jumped in from outside. Looking at Yan Yun, their target was clear: they grabbed Yan Yun directly.

The person in front of Yan Yun immediately reached out and hugged the other person's leg.

"Let go of our young lady."

The man kicked her away again.

He picked up Yan Yun and threw him out of the carriage.

The person who had been kicked away rushed back, but she didn't listen to a word Yan Yun said.

Yan Yun immediately spoke up, "Don't hurt her."

Hearing the sound, the man turned around and glanced at Yan Yun, but did not kill the person who pounced on him.

He jumped off the carriage, and others below caught Yan Yun.

Yan Yun's entourage was also surrounded by three or four people, making it difficult for them to move.

Just as they were about to speak, someone suddenly rushed out from the side.

"That's the girl. Grab her and leave quickly. There's no need to hurt anyone."

Yan Yun recognized the voice as that of Shi Yunjun's servant.

It was pretty much what Yan Yun had guessed.

He was so impatient that he started making his move right here.

Yan Yun reached out and covered his face with the rag, so his face was no longer visible.

The man grabbed Yan Yun, hoisted him up, and ran forward.

After several turns, they came to a courtyard that looked both quiet and eerie.

The surroundings were deserted and desolate.

Yan Yun was left inside the house.

The servant immediately said to the person beside him, "Madam, the person has been brought."

The "madam" he mentioned was naturally Shi Yunjun's mother, the lady of the Shi family, Madam Shi.

Yan Yun glanced at her secretly and was surprised to find that Shi Yunjun's mother was a young woman, who looked even younger than the concubine.

She looked at Yan Yun, whose face was covered on the ground, and ordered the servant, "Lift her face up. I want to see what the girl who bewitched Yun Jun looks like."

The servant immediately squatted down and pulled off the tattered cloth covering Yan Yun's head.

When Yan Yun's face appeared before Madam Shi, Madam Shi was somewhat impressed. He did indeed have the face that her son liked. However, it was strange that there were still those bruises and purple marks on his face.

Madam Shi squatted down, reached out and pinched Yan Yun's face, not caring whether Yan Yun was in pain or not, and pressed down.

Yan Yun frowned in pain and immediately reached out to push Madam Shi's hand away.

Madam Shi then realized that the injury was just an external wound, not a birthmark. She wondered how her son could have fallen for a woman with such a scar.

Even in the underworld, my son will be very happy that I found him such a beautiful person.

The servant looked at Yan Yun and immediately frowned, somewhat puzzled. "Why is it you, girl?"

As soon as he spoke, Madam Shi immediately looked at him and asked, "What's wrong?"

The servant immediately said to Madam Shi, "Madam, you've arrested the wrong person. This girl isn't the one the young master used to keep."

Madam Shi looked at Yan Yun, but she was not angry. Instead, she said, "If it's not true, then it's not true. When we catch that person again next time, we'll send this girl away first."

The servant felt somewhat worried. He looked at Madam Shi and said, "Madam, this girl is the daughter of a merchant from the Zheng family. It would be better to let her go."

Because he saw the Third Prince at that academy, maybe this girl has some connection with the Third Prince.

When Madam Shi heard the servant say she was the daughter of a merchant, she didn't care at all. She was just a merchant; how could she possibly rebel?

"Go and close the door for me."

The servant wanted to say a few more words, but Madam Shi wouldn't listen to him at all.

Yan Yun also looked at Madam Shi at this moment, not expecting that the two would meet so soon.

She looked at Madam Shi and questioned her directly, "What do you want to do with me now that you've captured me?"

Madam Shi gave a sinister smile.

"Don't worry, I'm just sending you to a better place, to the underworld, to stay with my son. While I'm alive, I will provide you with countless treasures of gold and silver, so go in peace."

After Madam Shi finished speaking, four more women appeared in the room.

They each held a white silk ribbon in one hand, a bright red wedding dress in the other, and two other women held combs and cinnabar.

"Hold him down, I want to personally escort Yun Jun and his beautiful bride down there."

After Mrs. Shi finished speaking.

Yan Yun naturally guessed what she wanted to do. Looking at the two women who came over, Yan Yun showed no mercy. She kicked one of them and turned to run away.

There were servants guarding the entrance, as well as other people from the Shi family.

Moreover, even Yan Yun couldn't open that heavy door.

Madam Shi looked at Yan Yun and snorted coldly, "This temperament is a bit too strong, which is not good. We must tie her hands up so that she won't cause trouble in the underworld."

The women put their things on the table and immediately rushed towards Yan Yun again.

They grabbed Yan Yun's waving hand and slammed her onto a nearby table.

Madam Shi let Yan Yun's hair down and took an oiled comb to comb it.

She murmured to herself, "As Jun'er's mother, I know best what kind of girl he likes. I'll give this girl a good dressing later. Make sure to smear her face hard; it won't look good if she gets disfigured."

After saying that, the women held Yan Yun down and took off the clothes she was wearing.

They then dressed Yan Yun in a red wedding gown they had bought, and tied her hands behind her back with white silk.

Yan Yun warned them coldly, "If you don't let go, don't blame me."

Madam Shi smiled after hearing this.

She scraped Yan Yun's scalp hard with her comb. "This girl is sharp-tongued. I don't know if my Jun'er can handle her. Let's cut off her tongue after we've done her hair and makeup. She'll be much quieter after that."

After Shi Yunjun's death, Madam Shi had long since gone mad.

Every night I dream that my son is crying and saying how pitiful it would be if he died alone.

Now you don't need to feel sorry for yourself.

Whether he has three wives and four concubines, or beauties, he can send them all down to her.

After being thoroughly tormented by the group, Yan Yun looked like a ghost. His face was covered in thick makeup, making him look like a white-faced person. His red wedding dresses were also of different sizes, making him look like a sack.

Mrs. Shi, however, was satisfied.

"That's settled then. Let's send her on her way. Is the coffin ready?"

"Everything is ready, madam. We're just waiting for this girl."

"Let's begin then, don't keep Jun'er waiting impatiently."

Madam Shi reached out and pinched Yan Yun's mouth.

The old woman next to him took out a white medicine bottle and was about to pour it into Yan Yun's mouth.

Yan Yun looked at the white porcelain bottle and knew what was inside.

She gripped her hands tightly, trying to struggle.

But to no avail.

She kept her mouth shut.

But he didn't panic.

The servant outside the door was kicked to the ground, and the door was smashed open from the outside.

A man dressed in black stood in front of the door, looking at Yan Yun, who was being held down by several women.

Yan Yun also saw him.

Yes, it's Jingyue, isn't it?

Mrs. Shi, who was standing to the side, remained calm and said, "Quickly feed her."

The woman immediately reached out to fall down, but she pulled out the plug.

He was about to pour it into Yan Yun's mouth.

Jing Yue immediately rushed forward, grabbed the servant, seized his arm with one hand, and kicked him away.

Watching that body fly through the air in an arc.

Jing Yue was already in front of him, and he reached out and lifted Yan Yun off the table.

He put one arm around Yan Yun's waist and looked at Madam Shi.

"Madam Shi is truly audacious, actually kidnapping someone in the street."

Madam Shi smiled and said, "What do you mean by kidnapping? This girl is already one of our household members."

Madam Shi naturally wouldn't admit to forcibly taking a woman from the common people; she only said that they were being punished according to family law and that they were going to execute the runaway maid from her household.

Yan Yun is not mute.

The servant just told them that she wasn't a maid from their household; she was from the Zheng family.

Madam Shi looked at Jing Yue, her expression turning cold. He was dressed in all black, looking exactly like a thief.

"And where did you come from, you rascal?"

These ladies, of course, did not recognize the newcomer.

"I am Jing Yue."

Mrs. Shi thought about the name for a moment, but it wasn't familiar. She figured it wasn't someone she cared about. "Put him down. If you want to leave, then leave. Don't get in my way."

Jing looked at Madam Shi.

"Not only am I leaving, but I'm also taking her with me. Madam Shi, you should stop believing in those unorthodox methods. If you really want what's best for Shi Yunjun, you should do more good deeds and accumulate merit for him."

Mrs. Shi immediately became furious and embarrassed.

"Where did you get the nerve to lecture me? Guards!"

The woman standing nearby reminded her, "Madam, we are not at home."

Their courtyard was originally used for these dirty things, so naturally not many people followed them.

The servant on the ground also said to Madam Shi, "Our people have all fallen. He, his skills are no match for those people."

When Jing stopped to speak, it was merely to advise Madam Shi.

“If Madam Shi insists on going her own way, I’m afraid she will lose even more. I’m taking this person with me. If you have any complaints, just come and find me, Jing Yue.”

After Jing Yue finished speaking, he picked up Yan Yun and pulled the red wedding dress over Yan Yun's head to cover him up.

He walked straight out of the house.

Madam Shi immediately launched into a tirade from behind, "What are you all good for? Can't you even guard a door properly?"

The servant still doesn't dare to respond.

Back then, he followed those rich young masters and heard them say that the people of the Southern Border were barbaric. At that time, he didn't think it was scary, and he could have just laughed it off.

But looking at Jing Yue's methods today...

The servant felt a sudden warmth in his lower body and was so frightened that he wet himself. All of his accomplices who had tried to block Jing Ri had been torn to pieces, reduced to chunks of flesh.

The servant, thinking of the miserable state of those people right in front of him, immediately lay down on the ground and vomited, making Madam Shi feel even more sorry for him.

"You lowly thing, get out of here."

Madam Shi followed after them and saw what she saw.

It fell straight down.

As for the Zheng family, although the servants escaped, they could not hide the fact that their young lady had been kidnapped.

Zheng Jihua was furious when he heard that Yan Yun had been kidnapped. One thing after another happened day after day, leaving him no time to rest.

Is there anyone who doesn't know that Zheng Ning'er is Zheng Jihua's daughter?

The attendant said that those people appeared suddenly.

However, one person remained in the carriage, and they immediately took the woman to see Zheng Jihua.

The woman immediately relayed Yan Yun's words to Zheng Jihua.

"The young lady said that she was taken away by the Shi family."

"Shifu?"

The attendant beside him recalled the rumors circulating in the capital that Madam Shi was trying to arrange a ghost marriage for her son because she missed him so much.

They would find a young woman of marriageable age, kill her, and bury her with Shi Yunjun in his grave.

Upon hearing this, Zheng Jihua was filled with malice; how dare he set his sights on his daughter!

"Someone, go to the Shi residence and fetch Miss Shi."

He looked at the person next to him and whispered something.
