Currently, they were definitely searching all over the city for them. They simply could not go head to head with Li Chengyan right now, and could only try to think of ways to escape while hiding everywhere.

After sneaking into the city a few times, she discovered that it was already completely under martial law outside the city. Li Cheng had already made up his mind to search the entire city and find them. Under such circumstances, finding them was only a matter of time.

Sure enough, on this day, when the three had just rested at a farmhouse, their master had collected the silver and went out to prepare food for them. However, Meng Ling Xuan felt that the atmosphere wasn't right and decisively shouted, "Let's go!"

The three of them quickly returned to the carriage and galloped away. However, they had only traveled a few miles when a group of soldiers surrounded the carriage.

Meng Ling Xuan's expression was grim as he stared at these people who were already lying in ambush. He didn't even need to think about which family they had stayed in previously to leak their whereabouts. That was why the current trap was waiting for them.

This farm was meant to be used to wait for them.

Inwardly blaming himself for his carelessness, Meng Liangxuan pulled out his own weapon. No matter what, he had to carve a path for Song Xiangsi and Princess Hua-Yang to escape today.

"You stay inside and don't go out, okay? When I tell you to run outside, just run outside and don't look back." Song Xiangsi spoke with a grave expression to the terrified princess.

"Where are you going?" The princess grabbed the hem of Song Xiangsi's clothes, afraid that she would abandon her.

Song Xiangsi didn't say anything. She lifted the curtain and walked down to stand beside Meng Ling Xuan.

"Why did you come down?" "Hurry up and go up!" Meng Huaxuan, upon seeing her, roared.

"Why are you still talking about this now? You probably can't even beat me right now. If something were to happen to you, how would I be able to report it?" Song Xiangsi retorted indifferently. However, his back was facing Meng Ling Xuan as he drew his sword. His meaning was clear:

It was impossible for her to hide behind him now!

"You … "What a load of nonsense." Meng Ling Xuan opened his mouth and spat out a few words.

There was another rustling sound in the forest, like a group of people closing in at an extremely fast speed. Before anyone could react, another team of soldiers sprang out from the forest and quickly surrounded Meng Ling Xuan's group.

When the two groups of people gathered together, they immediately saw the gap between them. Li Chengyan's men were not the opponent of these well-trained soldiers, and they were all controlled.

The change happened too quickly. Song Xiangsi was still in a daze, unable to make sense of the situation. However, Meng Liangxuan had already guessed the reason as he looked at these soldiers.

"Don't worry, these people are here to help us." As soon as Meng Fanxuan's voice fell, the soldiers all gathered around a person and walked over. Song Xiangsi took a closer look, this person had an extraordinary temperament and was dressed elegantly. His every gesture was filled with an imposing aura, and he was definitely not a simple person.

Just as she saw her face, the princess of the carriage saw the person who had just arrived and became excited. She opened the curtain and ran towards the woman. "Grandmother!"

The woman took the princess in her arms and checked to see if she had suffered much. When she found that her grandson was fine, she hugged the princess and broke into tears. "Child, you've suffered greatly."

The princess began to act coquettishly.

When the Grand Princess looked at the emaciated princess, her heart ached for her grandson, and she coaxed her daughter in a low voice.

Song Xiangsi looked at the two of them, who were holding onto pain, and could not understand what she meant. However, when she heard the princess call the woman "Grandmother …"

Someone who can make the princess call her grandmother...

Song Xiangsi was shocked.

Meng Fanxuan's voice rang out. "This is the Grand Princess of the current dynasty."

Indeed, from the looks of it, Song Xiangsi was certain of it. She had not expected the Grand Princess to pamper her so much. In fact, she had even come to this kind of place to pick her up.

From this, it could be seen that the princess had been doted upon and raised.

After the two of them had finished venting their feelings, the woman once again became the haughty Grand Princess. Beside her was the princess, her eyes red from crying.

Meng Ling Xuan went up to pay his respects. Song Xiangsi followed suit and bowed as well.

The Grand Princess looked at the two people in front of her, and then at her granddaughter's tasteless expression. She suddenly understood something, and a hint of astonishment flashed through her eyes.

"It's all thanks to Fen Xuan for saving me. Otherwise, the princess would have suffered greatly this time. I'll explain this matter to the emperor when I get back. When the time comes, I'll ask for a reward so that I won't treat you unfairly." The Grand Princess replied.

"Your Highness is too serious." Meng Fanxuan bowed.

The Grand Princess revealed a look of approval, "I've long heard that the young master of the Residence of Crown Prince is a first-rate character. Now that I've met him today, I know that the gossip within the palace is not nonsense."

The person in front of him was handsome and tall. Even in front of the Grand Princess, he was neither servile nor overbearing. His demeanor was free, and he was indeed a good youth.

After receiving the princess, the Grand Princess was about to return to the capital. She stood by the side of the horse carriage, hesitating for a moment before finally running over to Song Xiangsi.

Song Xiangsi thought that it would be a while before she would see the princess again after she returned, and she immediately sighed with emotion. She did not expect that the princess, who was supposed to board the carriage, would appear in front of her.

The princess in front of him flushed red and her lips closed a few times. Seeing this, she found it funny and asked, "Princess, do you have something to say to me?"

"Thank you …" Thank you for protecting me all this time... It was so dangerous just now, and you actually charged out. After speaking, the princess walked back to Meng Ling Xuan's side without even turning her head.

Song Xiangsi did not know whether to laugh or cry. She understood that the princess was talking about the matter of her leaving the princess in the carriage to deal with the soldiers when they were surrounded by Li Cheng's men.

Actually, at that time, she also wanted to protect the safety of the princess. As someone who had transmigrated, she didn't care too much about the princess's life.

However, these words could not be said to the princess.

"Meng Yuan Xuan, when are you going back to the capital? You've been out for so long already, you should be back by now, right?" The princess asked hopefully. If Meng Ling Xuan returned to the capital, they would have more time together.

"I won't be going back to the capital until now. I still have some important matters to attend to. I won't go back to the capital until I'm done." In addition, he also needed to solve this problem of Li Chengyan's.

The princess was disappointed. She understood that she could not be willful in such matters. She could only unwillingly board the carriage and return to the capital.
