"Mom, what's wrong? Is something the matter?"

Yang Ruqing acutely sensed something was amiss with Tuo Ba Xian.

Tubaba Xian said: "My eyelids have been twitching these two days, and I always feel flustered, as if something is about to happen."

Upon hearing this, Yang Ruqing's mind was struck like a thunderbolt. She suddenly remembered when she had been sewing clothes for Luofeng Tang and had her finger pricked.

Although she only bled a little, she had an indescribable feeling of panic, like fainting from blood loss, but Yang Ruoqing had never fainted from blood loss before.

“Qing’er, I was just thinking, could it be Fengtang or Chen’er, something happened?” Tuoba Xian couldn't help but ask again, her eyes full of worry.

Yang Ruqing actually had this kind of worry in her heart, but —

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Mother, twitching eyelids are totally normal, I get it often too, and I also feel anxious sometimes,"

“It’s nothing, really. I might just be feeling anxious because the weather has been getting warmer lately, so I’m a little on edge. I always feel this way around this time of year.” she said.

After Yang Ruohui's consolation, Tuoba Xian was half-believing and half-skeptical, but no matter what, her mood wasn't as depressed as before.

"Well then, that's good. I'll go back to my room first, but these few days I still need to devote myself to Buddhism earnestly. As for what I said before, I won't go back on my word." Tobo Xian added.

Yang Ruqing smiled and nodded: "Good, good, as long as my mother is happy."

Before lunch was ready, Zhou Fuzhang arrived.

Seeing Zhou Fujiang running like a panicked crowd, Yang Ruqing's heart skipped a beat. She suddenly felt uneasy.

"What? Fengtang was taken away? By whom?" Tuo Ba Xian stood up from her seat in shock after hearing Zhou's report.

Zhou Fujiang said, “The master of Zhujian Mountain Villa is Zhuge Qingyun!”

“What? Zhuge Qingyun?” Tuo Ba Xian’s face turned pale as a sheet, and she almost fainted.

Yang Ruqing and Xiaoyu quickly came over to help her up.

"Mother..." Yang Ruqing called out worriedly.

Tuoba Xian slowly opened her eyes and murmured, "Feng Tang is really in big trouble this time."

Then, she closed her eyes, and this time she fainted completely.

In a fluster, he placed Tuo Ba Xian on the bed and left Xiao Yu by her side. Yang Ruoqing and Zhou Fuzhang went to the outer room to speak.

Yang Ruqing took a few deep breaths, trying her best to suppress the anxiety and uncertainty in her heart. She repeatedly told herself: Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The more so at such a time, the calmer one must be. Only by staying calm can we come up with a way to save Tang Ya Zi!

So, the first thing to do is to thoroughly interrogate Zhou Fujiang and get to the bottom of the whole affair. Only then can we find a loophole!

“Zhou Fuzhang, about when did your general disappear? And how do you know it was Zhuge Qingyun from the Casting Sword Villa who took him?” Yang Ruoqing asked again.

Zhou Fuzhang then recounted to Yang Ruqing the events that had transpired on the evening of Qingming Festival.

“As the general was leaving camp, the sun had just set. He said that today was Qingming Festival and that he hadn't been back home to pay respects to his ancestors for several years. So, he asked us to prepare some food and wine,”

“At that time, my lieutenant Xie and I wanted to follow the General, but he wouldn't let us. He said he wanted to be alone for a while, so we didn't disturb him.”

But after an hour had passed, the general hadn't returned. So we took a squad of guards to the valley the general had mentioned.

"As a result, at the edge of a grove of trees, they found the wine and offerings that the general had brought, but there was no sign of the general himself,"

'On the ground, there were traces of a fight, and blood...'

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Bloodstains?

Yang Ruqing's eyes twitched violently, and the fingers hanging by her side involuntarily clenched.

“Go on,” she said in a low voice.

Zhou Fu then continued, "We followed the trail all the way and finally found this under a big tree. Please take a look, Madam!"

Yang Ruqing took the thing Zhou Fuzhang presented to her. It was an unremarkable piece of bark.

But on the back of the bark, four characters were carved: Zhuge Qingyun!

"This is my family Fengtang's handwriting, I recognize it!" Yang Ruqing recognized it at a glance.

Suddenly, I remembered the invitation letter from Jianjian Mountain Villa that my elder brother, the leader of Shui Long Gang, Wang Dalong, received before.

At that time, the Zhùjiàn Mountain Villa issued a recruitment notice to heroes throughout the land, summoning martial artists from all walks of life to gather at Zhùjiàn Mountain Villa this March. They would compete in martial arts and swordsmanship. The victor would be awarded a divine weapon by Zhùjiàn Mountain Villa's master, Zhuge Qingyun, or a secret martial arts manual as a prize.

"Zhou Fujiang, do the soldiers in the army know about Feng Tang's disappearance now?" Yang Ruqing asked again.

Zhou Fu shook his head: “The general has been missing for five or six days. This news has been kept under wraps, except for me, Xie Fujiang, and the general's personal guard. The other soldiers are unaware of it.”

Yang Ruqing nodded: "After you've had your meal, change to a swift horse and return to the army immediately."

“Just tell them the general has urgent family matters and returned home. Remember to reassure the troops and make sure nothing goes awry!” she said.

Zhou Fuzhang said, "Madam, what about that general? My subordinate Xie Fuzhang and I have discussed it, but we are still waiting for your guidance!"

Yang Ruqing said, "I will go to Zhujian Mountain Villa and be sure to save Feng Tang!"

Zhou Fujiang said, "Should I arrange some manpower?"

Yang Ruqing shook her head. "This involves the Jianghu, so we'll use Jianghu methods to solve it. If you're needed, I'll let you know!"

Zhou Fujiang still wanted to say something more, but seeing Yang Ruoqing's resolute and composed expression, the anxiety that had plagued Zhou Fujiang for the past five or six days suddenly calmed down a few points.

The madam is not an ordinary weak woman.

>

Zhou Fujiang and Xie Fujiang have always followed Luofengtang. From the Southern Xiu Shui Town to the Northern resistance against the rebellious forces of King Su, and finally to the pacification of the Southwest.

>

He and Deputy General Xie followed him all the way, with a life-and-death relationship between him and General Luo Fengtang.

At the same time, I am also very familiar with the general's wife.

>

The general's wife once fought alongside the general against the Black Lotus Cult and the barbarians, proving herself to be as capable as any man.

Whether it's combat strength or courage and fortitude, they were all proven in the fires of battle.

Especially during the last time when General's wife was in Tianhai County, she was extremely brave and fearless. After protecting the Ninth Princess out of the city, she rode alone to chase after the General and even saved the leader of the Shui Long Gang.

Now, the Protectorate Army is stationed near Tongtian River. Wang Dalong, the leader of the Shui Long Gang, often openly and secretly assists the Protectorate Army. Wang even brings fish he fished up from Tongtian River to chat with the general.

All of this is thanks to the general's wife's efforts.

So the General's wife was not an ordinary weak woman. When the general went missing, everyone had no one to rely on and immediately thought of finding the General's wife for guidance!

Thinking of this, Zhou Fu stood up solemnly, clasped his hands together, and said: "The last general takes orders!"

A genius in one second: m.
