Before Shen Zhu left the city, he specially left a letter and ordered people to send it to the Minister Mansion.

"Madam, someone has sent a letter outside saying it's for you." The servant girl beside Madame Chen reported in a low voice, and then handed the letter to Madame Chen.

"Did the messenger say anything?" Madame Chen took the envelope and asked curiously.

The servant girl: "The young man who delivered the letter only said that it was a young woman who asked him to give it to her. He didn't say anything else."

"I understand. You can leave now."

Madame Chen nodded and opened the envelope and took out the letter.

"Aunt, it's bad. Sister-in-law said that she wants to go out of the city to look for her cousin."

The moment Su Yian entered the room, he did not even have time to catch his breath before he hurriedly spoke out.

Madame Chen looked at the letter in his hand, his expression becoming more serious.

When Su Yian finished speaking, she put down the letter in her hand, "I know all about this."

"Aunt, how did you know?" Su Yian was curious.

"Take a look for yourself." Madame Chen placed the letter on the table, then ordered everyone outside: "Xiao Cui, quickly go call the old master, tell him that I have something to talk to him about."

"Yes, ma'am."

Xiao Cui replied, and after a while, she called Su Zhizhong over.

"Uncle." When Su Yian saw Su Zhizhong, he quickly called for someone.

Su Zhizhong nodded at him, then turned to look at Madame Chen, "Madam, why did you call me over in such a hurry?"

Su Zhizhong was initially organizing the information in the study room, but when he heard Xiao Cui's hurried report, he thought that something big had happened, and immediately rushed over.

"Something has happened."

Madame Chen frowned slightly, and immediately passed the letter to him, "Yue Niang went out of the city to look for Zong Wen. This is the letter she left behind."

"What?"

Hearing that, Su Zhizhong's face also changed, he immediately read through the letter ten lines at a glance.

"Uncle, Aunt, don't worry, before sister-in-law left, she came to find me. She said that Boss Zhou had sent a few guards with decent martial arts skills to accompany her out of the city, so nothing will happen. She told me to come back and tell you not to worry."

Seeing that, Su Yian hurriedly said what he knew.

Su Zhizhong sighed, holding onto the letter, he nodded his head, "Since they have already left the city, let's forget about this matter."

Su Zhizhong knew that they wouldn't be able to catch him even if they sent people after him.

With someone protecting him, nothing would happen.

"Madam, please instruct the servants to keep their mouths shut. If anyone makes any information known, they will be severely punished."

Su Zhizhong instructed in a deep voice: "Also, send some people to bring Shuer and Ruanruan over after we die. Let the others know that Yue Niang has caught a cold and is lying in bed with no guests in the meantime."

"I understand. I will instruct the others in a while." The Madame Chen nodded.

Since ancient times, females were known for being virtuous and virtuous. If today's matter were to spread, no one knew what kind of influence it would have on Shen Zhu's reputation, so they had to be cautious.

"Then, uncle, aunt, I'll go back to the shop first."

Seeing that he had settled the matter, Su Yian went back to Yuzhu Pavilion. His business was booming, and he was extremely busy. He still had many things to do.

"Mm, go and busy yourself." The Madame Chen nodded.

Before Shen Zhu left the city, he had already considered everything, the two children at home had been entrusted to the Madame Chen, and now that his Minister Mansion had been revealed, Shen Zhu's body was unwell, and no guests could be seen.

The two children were raised in a courtyard in Madame Chen. If anyone asked them about it, they could refuse because they were worried that the child would be infected.

As for Yuzhu Pavilion, with Zhou Muqing here, if anything were to happen to her after she left, Su Yian would naturally go to the Hundred Fragrance House to look for him.

Shen Zhu rode on the horse carriage out of the city. In order to save time, she abandoned the horse carriage right after they left the city.

In her previous life, she had learned how to ride a horse. Although she had not ridden for a very long time and was a bit unfamiliar with the methods, she quickly adapted to them after riding on a horse.

Two days later, the group of people arrived at the forest where Su Zongwen and Su Zongwen had disappeared.

"Young Madam, there's no road ahead. It seems like we can only abandon the horse."

The guard at the very front surveyed the surroundings before speaking in a low voice.

"Alright, let's go."

The group of people got off the carriage and brought everything they needed. Then, they headed into the forest.

After searching for an hour, he still could not find anything.

"No one move."

One of them suddenly spoke out. The others heard him and stopped in their tracks, even holding their breath.

The sound of footsteps came from Zhou Pu, and the leader of the guards immediately brought Shen Zhu to hide in the bushes to the side. When the four of them turned around, more than ten black clothed men appeared from behind them, and quickly surrounded them.

"Young madame, go hide at the side."

"Alright, you guys be careful."

Shen Zhu swept his eyes across his surroundings, then moved a little further back. He then hid beside a large tree, so as to not hinder their display of the technique.

Not long after, the other three began to fight with the men in black. Their kung fu was excellent, and as a result, they did not seem to be at a disadvantage.

One of the black-clothed men unknowingly noticed Shen Zhu's side. The two of them looked at the three guards who could not get near to her, and then looked at Shen Zhu who was hiding behind a tree weakly, before shifting their gazes to her.

"You two, come with me."

The black clothed man waved his hand at the two beside him, and the three of them walked towards Shen Zhu with overflowing killing intent.

When Shen Zhu saw the shining blade coming at him, he reacted quickly and squatted down, the black clothed man's blade struck the tree behind her, and upon seeing that, Shen Zhu quickly took out a lightning rod to protect himself and stabbed it at the black clothed man.

This was something she had exchanged half of her wealth for before she abandoned the carriage and the system.

The man in black held his saber up and twitched it. Then, he fell to the ground and passed out.

The other two looked at each other and stopped in their tracks, a bit more afraid of the thing in Shen Zhu's hands.

"The item in this girl's hand is a bit strange, be careful." The two black-clothed men surrounded Shen Zhu vigilantly.

Shen Zhu frowned, holding onto the electric baton for protection against wolves, he was still a little nervous, all the black clothed men were real swords, if she was not careful, she would die.

The three of them were in a stalemate for a moment. Then, one of the men in black threw a glance at his companion and shouted, "Go!"

The two of them rushed up almost at the same time, Shen Zhu's hand was holding onto the anti-wolf electric baton, at most, he could only knock one person out, and seeing the two of them rushing over, he did not care anymore, and aimed the electric baton at the man in black who was closest to him.

The black clothed man was struck by the electric baton and fainted soon after. It was just that another person's big blade was flying towards Shen Zhu.

Shen Zhu was just about to be cut, but the black clothed man suddenly fell.

Young Mistress, there are too many of them, so continuing like this is not safe. It is not safe for you to stay here, so you should quickly head up the mountain.

A guard stabbed the black-clothed man and drew his sword.

"Alright, then you must be careful."

Shen Zhu looked at the chaotic battle on the side, gritted his teeth and ran up the mountain with his backpack, the proposed guard stood behind her and blocked the black-clothed men who were chasing after her.

Although the guard stopped them, there was still a fish that had escaped the net and followed behind Shen Zhu. Shen Zhu was busy climbing the mountain to look for Su Zongwen and Ming Jiling, and did not notice that someone was following him.

"Eldest Sister-in-Law?"

Shen Zhu looked back to see if he was caught up, then suddenly he heard a male voice full of surprise.
