Ji Yunyun woke up faintly, the surroundings were dim, and there was a sharp pain in the back of her head, she covered her head for a while, only to find herself lying on the ground, it was already dark, and there were earth walls not far from her, she looked up, and the hazy moonlight poured down from the top of her head, faintly allowing people to see the things around her.

The ground was a little cold, she moved her body to get up from the ground, "hiss......" suddenly there was a sharp pain in the ankle of her right foot, and there was also some sharp pain on her body. She forced herself to get up from the ground, sat up against the dirt wall behind her, checked her body, and found that her clothes were a little dirty, and there was a lot of mud, she looked up and looked overhead, it was supposed to be a trap dug in the ground, it looked like she had been knocked unconscious and thrown here.

From the beginning of sending people to spread the word, it was to lure her to the bamboo forest, and then to stun her and throw her here. Who could have done this to her, and for what purpose?

Ji Yunyun thought carefully in his mind, and a name came to mind: Sun Yingying.

Something similar happened in the previous life, she walked around with King An's Mansion more often, even if Sun Yingying had a marriage contract with Qi Cheng at that time, Sun Yingying also looked at her and felt that she was a threat, once tricked her out of the city, threatened her fiercely, let her stay away from King An's Mansion, and then left her alone on the road, it was still raining at night, fortunately, Princess An sent someone to find her, and she fell seriously ill after returning home.

She is the Miss of the Guogong Mansion anyway, no matter how bold Sun Yingying is, she doesn't dare to hurt her life, but she doesn't know where Chun Tao was taken and whether she is in danger. Ji Yunyun was in a hurry, but there was no way to get out of here, so she could only wrap her clothes tightly against the dirt wall, waiting for the people in the house to find out that she was missing and came out to look for her.

In the Guogong Mansion, Ji Yunlan came out of the old lady and was about to go back to Bitong Courtyard, when she met Ji Yunting, his trouser legs were rolled up half, his robe was lifted and tied around his waist, his hair was wet with sweat, and he looked like he had been playing crazy outside.

"Didn't you say that you were fighting with the young master of the Sun family again? I'm still injured, it looks like you're okay, and you're running out to play again. Ji Yunlan glanced at him and said.

Ji Yunting wiped the sweat on his head and looked at her with a confused expression, "Who fought with Sun Cheng?" I haven't even seen a figure today. ”

Ji Yunlan was stunned, "You didn't fight?" Then why did someone say that you were fighting again, and your sister went out to look for you. ”

She didn't see anyone when she went to the Splendid Courtyard to look for Ji Yunyun with a note, and she heard that she went to the eldest sister and waited for a while and didn't come back, and then went to the eldest sister to ask only that Ji Yunyun had already left, and asked a circle of maids in the house, only to know that Ji Yunyun heard that Ji Yunting was injured in a fight with the young master of the Sun family again, and went out to pick up people. She spent the afternoon with her grandmother in Rongshantang, and she thought that she would go to Ji Yunyun to ask about the note when it was time for dinner.

"I'll ask her." Ji Yunting was also stunned, turned around and walked towards the Splendid Courtyard.

Ji Yunlan thought about it and felt that something was wrong, so she followed Ji Yunting to the Splendid Courtyard.

In the study in the backyard of King An's Mansion, Zhao Yan chatted with Qi Cheng while playing with the folding fan in his hand, "The strange man I saw that day was the cousin of Miss Ji Er, it turned out that Lord Yan was her uncle, but Lord Yan had been in Yaozhou all these years, why did the emperor suddenly remember to call him back to be the Shaoqing of Dali Temple?" I remember that Sun Qi, the eldest young master of the Sun family, has not always been eyeing this position, and there is no reason to give it to others. ”

Qi Cheng only listened to the front, and heard that the back was a little absent-minded, seeing that it was dark outside, and was about to drive Zhao Yan away, Feng Ji came in from outside.

"Shizi, Miss Ji Er didn't go back after going out at noon, and the Guogong Mansion sent someone to the bamboo forest outside the city to find the carriage that Miss Ji Er was in when she went out and the maid beside her, but there was no trace of Miss Ji Er." Feng Ji leaned over and whispered in his ear.

Qi Cheng frowned, and his face sank.

"What's wrong?" Seeing that Qi Cheng was originally fine, Feng Ji muttered a few words in his ear, and his face suddenly turned bad, Zhao Yan asked suspiciously.

"Send the young master back home." Qi Cheng opened his mouth and ordered his subordinates, waited until Zhao Yan was sent out of the study, and asked Feng Jidao: "She and the maid went out alone, didn't she bring a guard by her side?" ”

Feng Ji shook his head, "I heard that someone pretended that the third young master of the Ji family and Young Master Sun Cheng and Young Master Sun were fighting in the bamboo forest, and they were injured, and the second girl Ji left the mansion in a hurry." ”

She hasn't been back to the capital for a long time, so she shouldn't have provoked anyone, Qi Cheng's finger tapped on the table, and he asked again, "Is there any movement on the Sun family's side?" ”

"I'm about to report to the world." Feng Ji hurriedly said: "The person sent to keep an eye on the Sun family said that in the afternoon, I saw the maid next to Miss Sun coming out of the bamboo forest in a carriage, and later went to Nanshan. ”

After hearing this, Qi Cheng got up and instructed Feng Ji while walking outside the study, "I'll go to Nanshan, and if my father and mother look for me, they will say that I and Zhao Yan have gone out." ”

Feng Ji followed behind him, "Nanshan is so big, I don't know where Second Miss Ji is, so I don't need to recruit more people to find it?" ”

Qi Cheng shook his head, "If the movement is too big, the Sun family will find out, so I'll go alone." After saying that, he walked out of the gate of the palace quickly, and rode his horse towards Nanshan in the night.

At the foot of Nanshan Mountain, Qi Cheng turned over and dismounted, tied the horse to a tree, he stood in place for a while, and walked along a somewhat deserted mountain road.

The scenery of Nanshan is beautiful, it is a good place to enjoy the cool and escape the heat, halfway up the mountainside are the Zhuangzi of each family, every year in the hot summer, the sons and ladies of each province will come to live on this Nanshan for a few days. The Sun family also has Zhuangzi on this Nanshan Mountain, but they are deliberately trying to trick Ji Yunyun out, presumably they will not be willing to reveal their identity, and it should be impossible to hide Ji Yunyun in Zhuangzi. In order to avoid people's eyes and ears, you should choose a deserted place with few people, such as the back mountain.

Qi Cheng paid attention to the movements around him as he walked, he wasn't sure if Sun Yingying had left someone to guard him nearby, so he didn't dare to light the fire fold, fortunately, the moonlight was still bright tonight, and his night vision was also good, and he could see the traces on the ground clearly.

Few people came to the back mountain, so the traces of the wheels were particularly obvious, and he squatted on the ground to inspect them, and slowly followed the tracks. After walking for a while, the traces of the wheels were gone, Qi Cheng squinted his eyes and found that there was a trap on the ground in front of him that looked like a hunter catching prey.

Ji Yunyun tried hard to listen to the movement outside, seeing that it was getting late and late, she had been in the trap for so long, and it had been quiet outside, and no one had come to save her. It stands to reason that it shouldn't be, she and Chun Tao are gone, presumably the eldest uncle and aunt already know, it is impossible not to send someone out to find her. As long as you ask the maids in the house, the little maid in the corner gate should tell the whole story, and the house will know that she has come to the bamboo forest.

But why hasn't anyone come for so long? Could it be that the little maid was bought by Sun Yingying, and the house didn't know that she came to the bamboo forest?

Several thoughts flashed in Ji Yunyun's heart, she sat on the ground with her knees hugged, her right ankle was already high and swollen, and it hurt when she touched it, so she must have hurt a little seriously.

A small clod of earth fell from the top of her head, and she hurriedly reached out to protect her eyes and looked up, and saw a vine being thrown from above, and then a tall figure descended down the vine.

“…… Miss Ji? The figure landed, glanced around the cave, saw Ji Yunyun in the corner, and called out loudly.

“…… The Son? Ji Yunyun also recognized the voice of the visitor, she was surprised and happy, and she was about to get up from the ground by holding on to the earthen wall behind her.

Excited by the "hiss......", she forgot that her foot was injured, and she got up and gasped against the earthen wall.

"Hurt?" Qi Cheng walked over to her, stretched out his arm to support her, and then lowered his head to inspect her injuries.

"It's not serious, let's go up first." Ji Yunyun shook his head, the cave was too dark to see clearly, and the top priority was to go up first.

"Hold me tight." Qi Cheng suddenly reached out to pick her up and said in her ear.

Unprepared to be picked up suddenly, Ji Yunyun hurriedly hugged his neck in fright. Qi Cheng carried her to the place where he had just come down, holding the person in his arms with one hand, grasping the vine with the other, stepping on the soil wall with both feet, and slowly walking towards it.

Worried that it would fall, Ji Yunyun's heart was pounding, she grabbed Qi Cheng's shoulders tightly, and her hands tightened a little tighter.

"Don't worry, it won't fall." Sensing the nervousness of the person in his arms, Qi Cheng said in a low voice.

The two were close together, Qi Cheng moved slightly, his chin could touch Ji Yunyun's nose, and the heat of his speech sprayed on Ji Yunyun's ears, and Ji Yunyun realized how intimate the posture of the two was, his cheeks were a little hot, and his ears were quietly red.

The trap was dug a little deep, and when the two of them finally came out, they were all sweating. Ji Yunyun took out the last clean handkerchief from his sleeve and was about to hand it to Qi Cheng before he reacted, he was holding himself with both hands, unable to wipe his sweat.

Ji Yunyun hesitated for a moment, moved his fingers, and still tucked the handkerchief back into his sleeve.

Qi Cheng threw the vine into the distance, and walked towards the place where he tied his horse with Ji Yunyun in his arms. Ji Yunyun reacted suddenly, grabbed his shoulder with his fingers and said hurriedly: "There is also Chun Tao, she should also be nearby." ”

"Your maid and carriage have been found, and they are all safe and sound." Qi Cheng said as he avoided the surrounding branches.

"Found them all?" Ji Yunyun was stunned for a moment, and only then did he see the surrounding scenery clearly by the moonlight, and his eyes widened in surprise, "This is not a bamboo forest?" ”

"No, this is Nanshan." Qi Cheng replied, brushed aside the branches and came out of the path, walked to the horse that was waiting quietly, touched the horse's back, and then whispered to Ji Yunyun: "Hurry up when you go up." Then he carried her on horseback.

She hadn't ridden a horse since she was so big, Ji Yunyun was a little panicked on the back of the horse, but before she could panic, Qi Cheng had already untied the horse rope and turned over on the horse.

"Sit tight, drive!" He put his arm around Ji Yunyun's waist with one hand, led the horse rope with the other, clamped the horse's belly and went in the direction of the city gate.

Not long after the two left, two figures came down from the mountain and came to the trap. A figure lit up the fire and looked into the trap, and was suddenly shocked, "What about people?!" ”
