The letter brought back by Ma Da was written by Cui Xiaojun.

A few days ago, before Juehou returned all night, Cui Xiaojun had an ominous premonition. The next morning, Du Chuanyun came back drunk, but there was still no Juehou's figure. Zhang Youcai became anxious and poured a basin of cold water on his head. Du Chuanyun finally woke up.

"Marquis Juan cannot be abandoned. He is with Marquis Chai Xiaohou, Zhang Yanghao and the others." Du Chuanyun sat on the ground and said blankly.

Zhang Youcai immediately went to Chai Mansion. Zhang Mansion asked for information. The result brought back made Cui Xiaoqun even more worried: There were six people in total, and they didn't go home last night. The other families were not in a hurry. These playboys often went crazy for several days. Chai Mansion was only worried about one thing, how should they explain to the Lord Hengyang that their grandson did not come to pay their respects?

Cui Xiaojun cannot feel at ease. Juehou has a special status and is not a playboy. He will never leave home without saying a word.

Zhang Youcai continued to go out to inquire about the news. Du Chuanyun slept for a while. After waking up, he became anxious and went out to look for clues everywhere.

That afternoon, Zhang Youcai brought back the news that Juanhou and others had been to Cui Mansion last night and had a fight with Cui Teng and his gang in Houxiang.

Cui Xiaojun could no longer wait for the news, so she immediately ordered someone to prepare a car and go back to her parents' home to ask for it.

Cui Teng, who was frightened in the deserted garden, was lying on the bed and humming. After seeing his sister, he was furious, "Your servant hurt me, you dare to come? Stinky girl, dead girl, turn her elbow out. I want to tell Laojun and mother that the Cui family will never recognize you from now on..."

Cui Xiaojun cried. It was not because his brother was humiliated or because the Cui family refused to recognize him, but because Juehou's whereabouts were unknown.

Cui Teng was scammering at first and soon became embarrassed. "Oh, what's there to cry? I'm just talking about it. I didn't dare to tell Laojun these things. You know her temper."

Cui Xiaojun was still crying, so Cui Teng had to get out of bed to comfort his sister, "Okay, okay, for your sake, I don't care. This is the hatred between me and Chai Yun, I'll take revenge on him. Hey, I'm still crying, can you and Chai Yun..."

"Bah." Cui Xiaojun stopped crying and sobbed, "Junhou didn't go home last night, so he didn't know where he ran with Chai Yun, Zhang Yanghao and the others."

Cui Teng slapped his thigh, "You still need to check it? Chai Yun is a playboy who specializes in stealing fragrance and jade. She doesn't return to the house at night, either staying in a prostitute's house or having a lady from someone's family... After that, her brother-in-law was taken to pieces."

Cui Xiaojun shook her head firmly. "Impossible, Juehou is definitely not that kind of person."

"Haha, silly sister, no matter how hard it is, I am still a man. You have been married for more than a year. He must be tired of the family and goes out to pick wild flowers."

Cui Xiaojun blushed, but still shook her head and asked, "What did you do to Juehou, right?"

"What can I do? They last night...oh, you came to see me for this." Cui Teng jumped back to the bed, covered himself with a quilt, and looked angry.

Cui Xiaojun stepped forward and said, "Second brother, why don't I care about you? But I know that you are the second son of the Cui family. Even if Chai Yun has great courage, she is just joking with you and dare not really attack you."

"He dared not." Cui Teng sat up, feeling a little better, and then sighed, "As soon as you get married, it's different from before. Tell you, my brother-in-law did come with Chai Yun last night, provoking outside the door, but he didn't have the courage to fight. Once we chased him out, they ran faster than the rabbit, and didn't even have a hair left."

Cui Xiaojun was a little relieved. Although his second brother was reckless, he would not lie to her.

Cui Teng got out of bed and said seriously: "Sister, this is not a big deal. Ordinary people still have three wives and four concubines. My brother-in-law has been the emperor at least, so I can't guard you all my life."

Not wanting to hear the second brother's nonsense, Cui Xiaojun turned around and left, went to the inner house to meet his mother, begging her mother to help her find out the news, but she was still worried that someone in the Cui family would attack Juanhou.

She didn't go to see her grandmother because Laojun had a very bad impression of Juenhou.

When I got home, it was almost dark, and there was no news from Juehou. The other families were also anxious. Although they had been missing for several days before, they would send people to say hello to their homes, and the six nobles did not bring a servant, which was unprecedented.

The team of people searched for people expanded rapidly, and soon the night patrol soldiers who had encountered six people were found, greatly reducing the area where they disappeared.

The next morning, surprising news came that the Guiyi Hou family disappeared inexplicably, and the Guiyi Hou mansion happened to be in that possible area.

Rumors spread everywhere, and the daughter of the Jin family, "Hu You", was frequently mentioned, and Chai Yun's body was buried and had not been found yet.

Cui Xiaojun was even more worried.

That evening, Juanhou's Mansion welcomed an extremely special guest.

The first one was a few eunuchs who ordered Juanhou's mansion to prepare to welcome the nobles in the palace. He frightened the head of the palace and the lieutenant to lose his soul and immediately prepared the corresponding ceremony, but he didn't know how to explain Juanhou was not at home.

The nobleman's sedan chair did not stop at the door, and directly carried it into the back house, and did not ask about where the Hou Juan was going. Cheng and Wei were relieved, but they were full of doubts, feeling that this visit was abrupt and inconsistent with etiquette.

The visitor was Han Ruzi's biological mother, Wang Meiren.

Cui Xiaojun was extremely surprised, but she still held the courtesy of her daughter-in-law and respectfully invited Meiren Wang into the room.

"The time is too wrong for the boy to disappear." Meiren Wang was straight to the point and didn't even drink tea.

"Have you heard about it too?" Cui Xiaojun was embarrassed and a little scared.

"Well, I heard about it yesterday. At first I thought it was a mess, but now it seems that things are not simple."

"what to do?"

"What should I do? You should be optimistic about him."

Cui Xiaojun's face turned red, feeling wronged, but she didn't dare to say a word.

Meiren Wang stepped forward, held one of Cui Xiaojun's hand, and said softly: "You are a good wife. It is a blessing he has cultivated in his previous life."

Cui Xiaojun's face turned redder, "But I still..."

"No, no, that's not your fault, I'm not restrained for a moment." Wang Meiren sighed, "The son is in danger, and only the two of us are willing to save him sincerely."

"Dangerous?" Cui Xiaojun had an ominous premonition.

"The Queen Mother has a speculation that she thought the child was taken away by...the Cui family."

"I went back to Cui's house and asked... Oh. The Queen Mother suspected that it was my father."

"Well. The Empress Dowager suspected that Grand Tutor Cui wanted to take the opportunity to incite. She would soon make a counterattack. No matter who wins or loses on both sides, it would be a threat to Ruzi."

Cui Xiaojun bit her lip and thought for a while, "Tell me, what should I do?"

"I finally asked the Queen Mother's consent to come out of the palace to see you, and I want to tell you one thing: be sure to find the child. Let him escape and never participate in this battle."

Cui Xiaojun had nothing to say. She didn't even know where the Juehou was. How could she get him out?

Meiren Wang also knew that this task was too difficult, "Maybe you can ask Yang Feng for help, but I don't think he can help much."

"Someone in the mansion went to find Mr. Yang, but..."

Meiren Wang could not stay for too long, so she quickly returned to the palace by taking a sedan chair and leaving a huge problem to her daughter-in-law.

Cui Xiaojun is a smart person, and it didn't take long to understand why Meiren Wang valued herself so much: If Juenhou was really taken away by Grand Tutor Cui, she was indeed the only one who might have wanted to come out.

Cui Xiaojun came to her parents' home again and found only one person. That was King Donghai.

As expected, King Donghai was not in the mansion. Although everyone said that he was somewhere, he was not seen anywhere. This proves that the speculation of the beautiful Wang and the queen mother is probably correct.

Early the next morning, Cui Xiaojun went out of the city to meet her father.

This time the meeting was very difficult. The Southern Army camp was strictly guarded. The titles of the daughter of the Southern Army's Grand Sima and the wife of Juehou were useless. Even if the Empress Dowager came in person, she had to issue a formal decree before entering the gate.

Cui Xiaojun had a persistent spirit, but refused to leave. After staying outside the gate for three full hours, Grand Tutor Cui finally summoned this disobedient daughter.

"It was the Queen Mother who asked you to come?" Cui Hong had guessed the truth. "She is using you to test me, and say, what does the Queen Mother want to say to me through you?"

"I don't care about anything else, I just hope that Juehou is safe."

Cui Hong said helplessly: "It's useless to find me. No matter what the empress dowager says, Juanhou is indeed not in my hands."

"The Empress Dowager was prepared for a long time and could not find Juehou for a long time. The Empress Dowager will take action in advance."

Cui Hong laughed loudly, "If the Empress Dowager is really capable of defeating the Southern Army in one fell swoop, how could you remind me? The army is never tired of deceitfulness, and the Empress Dowager is bluffing. But whether it is false or real, the Empress Dowager has made mistakes, and you have made mistakes. What should I do if I hold an abdicated emperor for half a year? Even if I have the ability to depose the emperor, the person I want to recommend is the King of Donghai."

Cui Xiaojun felt that his father's words were quite reasonable, "Where is the King of Donghai? He is not in the Cui family, he must be with you. I want to see him. Donghai has many ideas, maybe it is him..."

Cui Hong shook his head and said to his daughter: "I have made an exception for you. Juehou is definitely not here with me. As for King Donghai, that is my business. Don't ask too much. If you are still my daughter, don't mention him to anyone after you go home. Do you understand?"

Cui Xiaojun said helplessly and returned home in a daze. She didn't know what to do next. Everyone seemed to have problems, but she couldn't see through what the problem was.

"Yang Feng..." Cui Xiaojun thought of the eunuch again. Perhaps only he could see through the smoke.

Du Motian, who was sent to find Yang Feng, has returned home, and the news brought by Cui Xiaojun has even more uneasy.

Yang Feng's view is the same as that of Wang Meiren: Juanhou must not intervene in the struggle between the Queen Mother and the Cui family. Cui Taifu has a conspiracy, and the Queen Mother will never be unprepared.

Sitting in the room and thinking about it for a while, Cui Xiaojun understood that she was deceived by her father. Juanhou was under the control of Grand Tutor Cui, but was not in the Nanjun camp.

On one side is the Cui family and on the other side is Juehou. Cui Xiaojun was forced to the dead end and ordered her maid to find a sword. She would go to see her father tomorrow. If there was no result, she would rather die before Juehou.

Early in the morning, before Cui Xiaojun set off, a strange guest came to the mansion and knocked on the back door, changing Cui Xiaojun's plan.

The news that the Great Chu army was defeated by the Huns had already spread widely at that time. It is said that many nobles were going to serve in the army. Cui Xiaojun, who had only a little knowledge of the court, had a sudden idea and wrote a simple letter to Juanhou:

When there are wars on the frontier and the palace is ready, your husband should write a letter to ask for battle and never take risks.

In her opinion, this is the only way to escape.
