Jinshan didn't care whether he was suspected or not. He quickly broke away from the fight and chased in the direction of Bu Shulin.
Xiao Changmin brought quite a lot of people with him, and Bu Shulin was intercepted along the way. Fortunately, she was accompanied by someone who knew the local terrain very well. With the help of the terrain advantage and the desperate obstruction of Jinshan and others, she did not fall into the hands of Xiao Changmin's men.
Compared with Bu Shulin, Shen Ershiqi went extremely easily. He was the first to escape, and the two embroidered-robed messengers caught up with him. Because he was Shen Xihe's man, the person sent by Xiao Huayong to help him secretly stepped forward immediately, fighting one against two, and stopped the two embroidered-robed messengers.
Having had a chance to catch his breath, Shen Ershiqi simply treated his injuries and took a detour to head towards Bu Shulin. Coincidentally, Xiao Changmin had also recovered, and the effect of the incense pill was fierce and dissipated very quickly.
Xiao Changmin immediately jumped on his horse and chased in the direction where Bu Shulin had fled. Xiao Changgeng also rode his horse to chase Xiao Changmin: "Second brother, Master Bu fled in the other direction, why are you chasing a woman?"
Xiao Changgeng really didn't understand. Xiao Changmin whipped the horse even harder, his face as gloomy as water.
Perhaps others did not dare to suspect this, because his followers had personally searched the woman and confirmed that she was pregnant, so he was careless for a moment and did not think much about it!
Now he was 80% sure that the pregnant woman was the real Bu Shulin!
A few months ago, he had suspected that Bu Shulin was a girl, and had plotted against him, but he was later tricked. In addition, the eldest princess' daughter married Bu Shulin, and a farce occurred in Prince Zhao's mansion that day, in which Bu Shulin exposed his chest and back in front of many people, revealing that he was a real man, which dispelled Xiao Changmin's doubts.
However, when Bu Shulin made his move just now, her appearance changed drastically, but her eyes and skills were the same as the Bu Shulin in Xiao Changmin's memory. When Xiao Changmin saw Shen Ershiqi's face that was exactly the same as Bu Shulin's, what else did he not understand
Bu Shulin has always had a substitute who looks just like her and helps her cover up the fact that she is a girl at critical moments!
The woman who followed him all the way was not just an ordinary woman who was accompanying him for the purpose of covering up. She was Bu Shulin himself!
This speculation made Xiao Changmin's blood boil. As long as he captured Bu Shulin, he would not only be able to complete His Majesty's orders, but also be able to control the Eastern Palace in one fell swoop!
Shen Xihe and even Princess Ruyang must have known that Bu Shulin was a girl!
Just thinking about what kind of uproar would be caused by capturing Bu Shulin and exposing her identity, Xiao Changmin couldn't help but get excited. He pushed the horse harder and flew out like an arrow.
Xiao Changgeng's eyes flashed, and he hurried to catch up.
Shen Ershiqi found Bu Shulin first after nightfall. If he had not known many secret codes of the Southern Shu Army, it would have been difficult for him to find Bu Shulin.
In a narrow cave hidden by low bushes that can only be entered by crawling, all traces outside the bushes have been cleared away. Apparently someone has dealt with these and led the pursuers away.
Shen Ershiqi knelt and entered the cave, which was wide and spacious. Bu Shulin was leaning against a rock, his body covered in blood. He tensed up when he heard the noise, holding a poisoned hidden weapon in his hand, ready to strike.
Only after seeing clearly that it was Shen Ershiqi did he collapse.
