Chapter 123: Willing to Talk to Him
The moment he saw Li Yi, Lu Wan was at a loss for a moment and lowered his head involuntarily.
Li Yi glanced at her coldly and continued walking forward.
As he passed by her, the unique scent of a woman, mixed with the scent of sweat, lingered in his nose.
The hand holding the reins couldn't help but tighten. Li Yi finally couldn't help it and looked sideways at her again.
The woman is very different today. She is wearing a crimson-colored riding outfit. She is charming and sassy at the same time.
I have to say, red matches her very well.
The wound on his forehead was also healed, and it was as smooth as before. Because he was traveling in such a hurry, a layer of fine beads of sweat formed on his forehead, and even on the base of his neck and ears.
Sweat snaked along the soft white neck, sliding all the way to the bottom of the collar, and finally disappeared abruptly at the collar and disappeared...
Li Yi had no choice but to look back.
Her face was covered with a veil, and she couldn't see anything except her eyes.
But her breathing was rapid, and the blue veil undulated gently on her face.
Li Yi suddenly felt that those breaths seemed to be spraying hotly on him...
He turned and walked forward.
As he walked, he asked Changting: "Where did you find the trace of Prince Lu?"
Changting had just replied to him, so I didn't understand why he asked again.
But turning around, he saw Lu Wan hearing Li Yi's question and looking towards them. He immediately understood and raised his voice: "It's in the mountain col to the west, but the terrain there is complicated and it's easy to get lost..."
"Changting, can you take me with you?"
With almost no hesitation, Lu Wan chased after him and said to Changting.
When Changting heard this, he unconsciously looked towards Li Yi.
Li Yi didn't open his mouth, but Changting dared to agree.
When Lu Wan saw him, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and say to him: "Your Highness...can you take me with you to find my brother?"
Are you finally willing to talk to him?!
Li Yi turned around and gave her a cold look, and just when he was about to speak, Yu Qing and the Lu family's nursing staff also followed.
Everyone was panting and sweating from running, and it looked like they didn't exercise often.
With one glance, he knew that she had brought everyone out of the Lu Family Nursing Home.
Li Yi told Yu Qing: "Let half of the guards go back, the house cannot be left unguarded."
Lu Wan's heart trembled, and then she thought that she had taken everyone out of the nursing home in a hurry. There was no one to guard the house, and it was easy for thieves to take advantage of it.
Besides, there are so many female relatives in the back house of the mansion...
Thinking of this, she quickly said to Yu Qing: "Your Highness is right, you should let them go back quickly and guard the house."
Li Yi took off his waist badge and threw it to Yu Qing: "Go to the palace and ask the imperial doctor to bring him directly to Beiying. Remember, there is no need to make it public."
Hearing this, Lu Wan sincerely admired him.
Although this man is usually very cold and ruthless, I have to say that he is really calm and meticulous when encountering problems.
It is almost evening now. If Lu Chengyu is found, there is a high probability that he is injured. If the imperial doctor is prepared in advance, he can be treated in time.
"The rest of the people will be divided into two groups, my team and Changting's team. They will go in from the front and back exits of the mountain col to look for people. They will meet at the middle road of the mountain col."
In this way, the search area is expanded and the time is shortened.
As soon as he finished speaking, the soldiers following him immediately divided into two teams in a well-trained manner, following him and Changting respectively.
Only the nursing staff left behind by the Lu family looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
Chang Ting asked them to follow his team. Lu Wan was about to join Chang Ting's team when Chang Ting said: "Miss Lu, the mountain road is rugged and my subordinates are afraid that they will not be able to protect the girl. It is better for me to follow your highness."
Lu Wan was a little hesitant, then heard Li Yi say coldly: "The rest of us are waiting for you, so there is no need to follow."
Is she an idler?
Seeing that he came forward to save his brother, Lu Wan would not care about his dog's inability to spit out ivory.
But now that she's here, she can wait there.
Without thinking about it, she chased after Li Yi's horse team and headed towards the mountain col to the west...
Li Yi didn't need to look back to know that she was following.
With a glance from him, the two guards around him immediately understood. They silently slowed down and fell behind, guarding Lu Wan on the left and right.
The group of people quickly arrived at the entrance of the mountain col. Li Yi stopped his horse, jumped off his horse and carefully looked at the traces on the ground.
There were traces of trampling on the grass in front of her. Lu Wan also searched everywhere for traces of Lu Chengyu, and she actually saw his handkerchief dropped in the grass.
"Your Highness, brother is really here..."
Lu Wan picked up the handkerchief and excitedly showed it to Li Yi, who was overjoyed.
Li Yi glanced at her coolly. Although she couldn't see her face clearly, her starry eyes were shining like an excited kitten.
He took the handkerchief from her hand, curled his lips and said with a mocking smile: "You're not stupid enough to leave something behind for someone to find him."
Although it was Lu Chengyu who was scolding him, Lu Wan's face turned red suddenly, and she felt like he was scolding her too.
Isn't it stupid for her to bring everyone out of the nursing home with one thought?
The mountain col was narrow and inconvenient for riding, so everyone dismounted and entered.
As soon as they entered the col, everyone started shouting at the top of their lungs: "Prince Lu...Prince Lu...where are you..."
Lu Wan was also anxious to shout out, but when she raised her head, Li Yi was looking at her, and her voice was stuck in her throat and she couldn't shout out.
"Follow me closely."
Li Yi used the scabbard to pick up a piece of snake skin that had fallen off, threw it aside, and walked forward.
When Lu Wan saw such long snake skin, his heart went numb.
Looking at the length of the snake's skin, I'm afraid it's not an ordinary snake, but a python.
She didn't dare to be distracted anymore and quickly took two steps forward to follow Li Yi.
After walking through a section of weeds and rocks, no one could find any trace of Lu Chengyu.
Looking at the getting dark sky, Lu Wan couldn't help but feel a little anxious - this mountain valley is full of venomous insects, snakes and ants. After dark, jackals will also take advantage of the night. If Lu Chengyu is not found as soon as possible, he will be in trouble.
Already...
The road ahead was blocked by a very wide mountain stream.
The guards crossed the river by stepping on the exposed stones on the mountain stream, and they could also jump over when they encountered a wide distance.
Li Yi is no exception.
But Lu Wan couldn't.
Before she even took two steps, the stone in front of her was too far away for her to cross.
"Your Highness..."
Seeing that Li Yi was about to step over the rock in front of him, Lu Wan couldn't help but call out to him.
Li Yi turned around, glanced at her, and said coldly: "Jump over."
The two rocks were so far apart, and there was a deep pool below. If he fell into the water, he would be rushed into the pool below. How dare Lu Wan jump?
"Don't waste time."
Li Yi's words shocked Lu Wan. Yes, if she lingered any longer, she would lose time to save her brother.
Lu Wan gritted his teeth and jumped forward with all his strength.
But the distance between the two rocks exceeded her budget. Seeing that her legs were about to fall into the water, Li Yi stepped forward very quickly, stretched out his long arms, and pulled her into his arms...
