After Princess Xuanxue came down from the mountain, the whole capital was in chaos.

Chapter 38 She lost her innocence

Xiangli Mingzhu was very suspicious that Jiang Junjing had not lost the jade pendant, but wanted to go back to find Yuan Qi.

Jiang Juncai also got off his horse and walked over, looking at his waist. Sure enough, the jade pendant in the morning was gone, so he thought that the person he sent would not let Jiang Junjing touch it.

"The Taoist priest who sold me the jade pendant said that this jade pendant can protect me from disasters. If I go back late, I'm afraid someone will pick it up, so I'll go first." Jiang Junjing turned around and took the horse brought by the guard, and left.

Xiangli Mingzhu and her son looked at each other and returned to the carriage in frustration.

Jiang Juncai whispered from the car window: "Don't worry, mother, I'll follow you to see what he wants to do."

Xiangli Mingzhu hummed: "According to circumstances, we must not let him know about our affairs."

Jiang Juncai also rode up and followed.

In order not to make them suspicious, Jiang Junjing did not run very fast and even looked for him while riding a horse.

While he was searching, he felt an illusory shadow "swish" past him, followed by a breeze.

Jiang Juncai, who was behind him, was highly skilled in martial arts and his senses were more acute than Jiang Junjing's. He could clearly feel a martial arts master passing by with light skills at an extremely fast speed. He didn't even see clearly who the other person was, what he looked like, and how tall he was. He just felt a force. The wind passed by in a flash.

He turned back in shock, and saw that the illusory shadow had long since disappeared. He stopped his horse and looked behind him for a long time, but couldn't find any trace of it, as if it was just an illusion.

"How can there be such a fast person in the world? Could it be that he is a practitioner?"

He muttered to himself and spurred his horse forward.

It didn't take long for Jiang Juncai to catch up: "Second brother, I'll look for him with you."

Jiang Junjing secretly cursed the old fox and put on a smile: "Thank you very much, brother."

The two rode horses and ran very far, but they didn't see the jade pendant anywhere. They arrived at the gate of Wuxiang Temple, but they couldn't find it either.

Jiang Junjing pretended to be surprised: "It's impossible. I remember it wasn't dropped when we walked back. Did you see it, brother?"

Jiang Juncai didn't meet the people he sent out along the way, and he breathed a sigh of relief. He shook his head: "I didn't see them. How about we go back along the way and look for them again?"

Jiang Junjing looked around but did not see Yuan Qi's figure. He was a little worried. Where could she, a little girl under ten years old, go? Is it possible that it hasn’t come out yet?
  Jiang Juncai also wondered why it had been so long and Yuan Qi hadn't come out yet. Logically speaking, nothing would happen in Wuxiang Temple. Could it be that his people had succeeded in such a short period of time?
  He hesitated and said, "How about we go to the temple to look for it?"

In fact, he wanted to confirm whether Yuan Qi had left Wuxiang Temple.

Jiang Junjing also had this intention and readily agreed.

The two of them walked the same path together, but found nothing, so they had to walk back together.

On the way, Jiang Junjing "accidentally" discovered the jade pendant in the grass, and was very happy: "It turned out to be in the grass. I said it was still there when I left."

Jiang Juncai smiled slightly: "It's good to find it. Can your jade pendant really ward off disasters?"

His eyes were intense and wanting.

Jiang Junjing said: "It should be possible."

The two of them had nothing to say along the way, each with their own thoughts, and returned to the motorcade one after another.

Jiang Jun discovered that the confidant he sent out had not returned yet, and he did not know whether the matter was completed.

Jiang Junjing whispered to Jiang Junyu in a low voice: "I didn't see anyone. Could it be that someone was poisoned?" Jiang Junyu shook his head gently: "Probably not. The seventh sister has some skills and won't be poisoned so easily. I'm afraid something might delay her. Or have already gone back, let’s talk about it when we get back.”

He studied under Master Yunyi, and was well-informed and full of strategies. He also knew that some experts from outside the country knew some magic techniques of the Eight Trigrams. The fact that Yuan Qi could see the dead Du Haitang proved that she had opened her eyes and was not capable of anything else. Xiao, maybe he has really gone back.

Jiang Junjing was in a state of confusion and returned to Jiang Mansion with an uneasy heart.

Xiangli Mingzhu and Jiang Bailu and Jiang Trulu both got off the carriage. Jiang Junjing never saw Yuan Qi's figure, so he stepped forward and asked: "Mother, didn't you say that the seventh sister was on your carriage? Where is she?"

"She was indeed in my carriage when I first got on the carriage. Not long after the carriage left, I fell asleep. I just woke up and found that she was gone. She knew so many evil spells, who knew what they were used for? Fazi escaped?"

She spoke confidently, with impatience and disgust in her tone.

Jiang Junjing clearly knew that the other party was talking nonsense, but he couldn't expose it. He was very anxious: "I'll go find it."

Xiangli Mingzhu glanced at him sideways and reprimanded: "Why panic? First ask the concierge if she is back, and then look for her."

Jiang Bailu and Jiang Truffle showed evil smiles, wait, I will destroy you now!

Jiang Junjing called the concierge and asked.

The concierge replied without thinking: "As for the second young master, the seventh lady has not returned."

Xiangli Mingzhu's face changed: "What's wrong, she got off the car halfway and went into the woods for fun, right? There are a lot of bad people there, what should I do if I encounter them?"

Jiang Junjing and Jiang Junyu both blamed themselves, they should have thought of this.

The eldest brother's henchman might have met the seventh sister on the road and went straight to the woods to cause trouble.

The two quickly got on their horses and called for the guards to follow.

Jiang Juncai was also worried about why his confidant hadn't come back after so long, so he followed on horseback and called a group of guards to follow him.

Jiang Bailu then shouted with worry on her face: "Mom, you said that the seventh sister will not meet the bad guys, have you lost your innocence? It's all my fault. I shouldn't have fallen asleep in the car and let my sister run away by herself. Playing, it’s all me, woo woo woo…”

She didn't even shed a single tear, her crying was fake.

Xiangli Mingzhu's face was gloomy, thinking that her daughter might as well not act, which was too fake.

She loudly ordered the accompanying guards and the servants who came to greet her at the door: "No one is allowed to spread the news that Miss Seventh has escaped. In case she is caught by gangsters and loses her innocence, we can help hide it, otherwise our The reputation is also damaged."

Jiang Jiulu and Li Gui's concubine looked at each other, and they both despised Xiangli Mingzhu's behavior, especially Jiang Jiulu.

She went directly to Shaoyaoju without giving up.

Sure enough, he saw Yuan Qi sitting quietly at the table eating water chestnut cakes, with a pot of tea beside him.

She walked over angrily: "I've been looking for you all over the place, are you still in the mood to eat and drink?"

Yuan Qi pushed Ma Tisu in front of her and said, "You didn't come back without knowing whether I was in Xiangli Mingzhu's car or not?"

Jiang Jiulu felt very guilty. She admitted that she actually only cared about Yuan Qi a little bit, but it was different now. She was really worried that Yuan Qi would be captured by the gangsters.
