Song Feiwan had been gone for too long, and searching for her in the vast sea of people was like looking for a needle in a haystack. Fortunately, the people under Xiao Yu were not idle; they quickly found a direction.
The Great Zhou Dynasty had strict household registration management. To travel to another place, one must have a travel document; otherwise, being caught would be a serious crime. No matter what identity Song Feiwan borrowed or where she settled, she had to have an identity. Therefore, as long as they sorted through the new household registrations from this period and carefully screened them, they would surely make a discovery.
However, Xiao Yu found this method too slow. He keenly observed, "Since she fell off the cliff—no, even before that—someone must have been helping her. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for her to escape alone. We need to thoroughly investigate everyone she has come into contact with!"
Upon investigation, they indeed uncovered a clue. The former Crown Princess, now Miss Ning Yuqin of the Ning family, had treated her! Yet, she had kept this matter hidden!
Xiao Yu had become obsessively determined; he was ready to resort to severe interrogation methods on Ning Yuqin without hesitation. Fortunately, Consort Rong received the news and hurriedly sent a message to Xiao Yu, urging him not to act impulsively as she had leads.
Upon learning that Song Feiwan was faking her death, Consort Rong was utterly shocked and felt a sense of validation for her earlier suspicions. She informed Xiao Yu that she had been keeping someone on Ning Yuqin under surveillance and mentioned that last year her actions were suspicious. Moreover, she secretly dispatched Ning family spies to investigate a household registration of deceased vagrants!
Following this lead, Xiao Yu quickly learned about Chen Azao. With a name and background in hand, things became much easier. However, while investigating in Jiangnan, he faced layers of resistance as if someone did not want him to find Song Feiwan.
But Xiao Yu was not one to give up easily. He directly mobilized hidden forces within the Northern Rong of the Great Zhou! This was an elite group he had cultivated under his identity as a king south of the grasslands—a fiercely loyal secret force that even Consort Rong was unaware of.
With this power at his disposal, the obstacles in his path were crushed, and he finally grasped Song Feiwan's current situation. Predicting that she had settled in Jiangnan, he led a team of trusted subordinates and set off lightly.
By the time he confirmed Song Feiwan's address, he was nearing Wujin City. He repeatedly read the few lines written on the paper, his thin lips curling into a bloodthirsty and ruthless smile.
Song Feiwan, I’m looking for you.
“Wanwan!” Outside the door, Rong Jiayi called out anxiously.
Song Feiwan had just sent a patient away and was organizing their medical records. Hearing the voice, she looked up and asked, “Brother Rong? What’s wrong?”
This form of address was something Rong Jiayi had requested after the New Year. He said that calling him “big brother” felt too distant.
Rong Jiayi's expression was grim, unsure how to explain the situation to Song Feiwan.
About half a month ago, news had spread in the capital that Xiao Yu had begun searching for Song Feiwan! It wasn’t long before he made his way to Jiangnan!
Rong Jiayi didn’t want them to reunite, so he used his influence to block Xiao Yu. However, Xiao Yu’s men were unknown to him, and neither the Rong family nor the Dali Temple could stand against them!
Just now, he received intelligence that a troop of cavalry had entered the territory of Wujin City, coming in strong!
Rong Jiayi didn’t need to investigate further; he could guess it was Xiao Yu’s people—perhaps even Xiao Yu himself had come!
He had to act quickly and get Song Feiwan out of there!
Grabbing her wrist tightly, he spoke rapidly, “There’s no time to explain; just know that Xiao Yu is looking for you!”
“What?!” Song Feiwan exclaimed in shock.
Everything she had done before was enough for Xiao Yu to tear her apart!
