After Ye Lianrong finished speaking, she stood up uneasily and sat down again. Looking at Lu Zhiqing in fear, Ye Lianrong pursed her lower lip and asked suspiciously: "My daughter, this matter doesn't have anything to do with you, does it?
"
"Mom, are you crazy?!" Lu Zhiqing glared at Ye Lianrong helplessly, "So what if my father is suspicious? We don't have to worry about ghosts calling us if we haven't done anything wrong. We didn't destroy Wan Yue.
It has nothing to do with us, why are you so worried? You don’t even have the heart to trouble her as a maid, let alone me? Besides, why should I hide her as a maid?"
Lu Zhiqing's words made Ye Lianrong feel a little relieved. When she thought that Lu Zhiqing's words made sense, Ye Lianrong stopped thinking about anything else.
After Lu Zhiyao went back, he saw Lan Ruoling and Yudie in the room. He shook his head gently towards the two of them, and Lu Zhiyao whispered to Lan Ruoling: "Miss Lan, I'm really sorry, I still have to
Let me ask you to do me a favor."
"If you have anything to say, just say it." Lan Ruoling nodded without hesitation and listened to Lu Zhiyao's words.
"Help me arrange for a smart person to visit my second mother. Wan Yue and Yu Die cannot have enemies outside. Looking at the entire Prime Minister's Mansion, the only ones who might cause trouble for them are my second mother and Lu Zhiqing.
.But Lu Zhiqing doesn’t have that smart head, so even if she did it, she must have discussed it with Ye Lianrong.”
"I understand, leave this matter to me."
Lan Ruoling left the house to do something for Lu Zhiyao, leaving only Lu Zhiyao and Yudie who was about to collapse. Lu Zhiyao took Yudie's cold hand and frowned, "Don't worry, I promise.
You will definitely do it, I won't let anything happen to Wan Yue."
Yudie tried her best to stay calm and nodded. "Miss, do you think that if it was really the second lady, where would they hide Wan Yue? I'm not afraid of anything else now.
I'm afraid that Wan Yue will be captured by other bad guys. You also know that there are so many human traffickers in the capital. What if, what if Wan Yue is really sold to another place?"
"Human traffickers..."
Yudie's words reminded Lu Zhiyao that the two maids, Wan Yue and Yudie, were both pretty and beautiful. They were not stunning beauties, but they were still pretty. If Ye Lianrong really didn't do it, then someone else would have caught her.
What use can Wan Yue have? Wan Yue is not the daughter of a wealthy family. Even if she is a slave in the Prime Minister's Mansion, the other party will not be stupid enough to think that the Prime Minister will really give money to a little maid.
Redeemed. Could it be that Wan Yue was captured by human traffickers as Yu Die thought?
Lu Zhiyao thought about it and decided to wait until dark and go out to investigate. Because if it was really human traffickers, then they would not be able to leave the capital so quickly. The most prosperous place in the entire Xia Lai Kingdom is
Even in the capital, this is the place with the most wealthy people. Only those women who cannot be sold for a high price in the capital will be transferred to other places.
Lu Zhiyao and Yudie stayed in the house for a while. The depressing atmosphere in the house made them feel a little breathless, so they went to the yard to take a breath.
Lu Yuanzheng, who came suddenly, looked at the two people's uncomfortable expressions and asked with a smile: "What? Are you not happy to see me?"
"No, dad, you misunderstood." Lu Zhiyao gave a forced smile and told Lu Yuanzheng the truth. "Dad, Wan Yue is missing, we are all worried."
"Wanyue?" Lu Yuanzheng raised his eyebrows, "That's impossible, I saw her just now!"
"What you see is not Wan Yue." Lu Zhiyao brought Lu Yuanzheng into the room and explained: "That one is Lan Ruoling pretending to be in disguise. The real Wan Yue went home last night to take care of my Aunt Chang.
Miss Lan came to me this morning and said that she followed the flower picker Chu Ziqian last night and found that Chu Ziqian came to our house. She was afraid that something would happen to my sister and me, so she wanted to pretend to be someone from our house and come to our house.
It's time to catch that thief."
"What? Chu Ziqian has come to our house?" Lu Yuanzheng was shocked by the news, and said with wrinkled features: "Then I have to ask the servants in the house to be alert and pay more attention."
As Lu Yuanzheng was talking, he seemed to have noticed something was wrong with his words. He glanced at Yudie and said, "No matter how hard we look, she won't be a girl. If we can't find her tomorrow,
, just report it to the official."
"Well, thank you for your concern, sir."
"Dad, don't spread this matter to anyone else. The same goes for Chu Ziqian's matter. If Chu Ziqian gets the news, all our preparations will be in vain!" Lu Zhiyao warned worriedly.
Landing Expedition.
When Lu Yuanzheng thought of Chu Ziqian, he remembered Ye Lianrong's previous contact with Chu Ziqian. He suspected that Chu Ziqian came here this time because of his previous agreement with Ye Lianrong, and rushed to Lu Zhiyao, which made Lu Yuanzheng even more angry.
Already.
"Dad understands." Lu Yuanzheng smiled slightly, patted Lu Zhiyao's head, and gently comforted him: "Don't worry, dad won't let anything happen to you."
Lu Yuanzheng and Lu Zhiyao talked for a while. After Lan Ruoling came back, he asked Lan Ruoling a few words and left. After Lu Yuanzheng left, Lan Ruoling said to Lu Zhiyao: "I
Arrangements have been made, and if anything goes wrong over there, they will come back and notify us immediately."
"Thank you so much, Miss Lan."
It's not a bad thing to have a policeman around at this time. So Lu Zhiyao and Yudie waited anxiously until night, but Wan Yue still didn't show up.
As time went on, Yudie's mood began to change, and she could no longer hold on. Lu Zhiyao looked at Yudie's sad expression and felt a little uncomfortable. Although he spent time with these two maids,
It's not too long, but it would be a lie to say it has no emotion at all.
"Miss Lan, I want to go out of the house." Lu Zhiyao gathered up his long hair and said to Lan Ruoling, "Let's go to a few brothels."
"Do you suspect that the maid was sold to a brothel?" Lan Ruoling thought for a while and objected: "This person can't be so bold, right?"
"If you are not courageous, you will not become a human trafficker. There are many people selling people on the street in broad daylight. What else do they dare not do." Lu Zhiyao sneered, and after fixing his hair,
It was only later that he realized that he did not have men's clothes. With a sigh, Lu Zhiyao found some light clothes and put them on, and then walked out of the room.
"Wait a minute, I'll go with you." Lan Ruoling said as she followed Lu Zhiyao.
"You're leaving too, what should we do here?"
"If you weren't in the house, Chu Ziqian would probably not take action. That thief would only take action on the woman he likes, and not others."
After Lan Ruoling and Lu Zhiyao made an agreement, they told Yudie to wait for them in the room. The two left the Prime Minister's Mansion one after another. Lan Ruoling looked at Lu Zhiyao's dexterous movements and couldn't help but ask
: "Who did you learn Kung Fu from? Mr. Xiang, do they all know that you know Kung Fu?"
Lu Zhiyao was silent for a moment, then looked back at Lan Ruoling, smiled slightly, and asked, "Do you believe that people will come back to life after death?"
Lan Ruoling was stunned by Lu Zhiyao's question. She didn't understand what Lu Zhiyao's purpose was in asking her this question.
Lu Zhiyao looked at Lan Ruoling's slightly startled expression and knew that if she told the matter, no one would believe it. In comparison, she still lied more honestly. "Actually, I don't know what happened to me.
I learned martial arts, no one taught me, I can master it after just sleeping."
Lan Ruoling was naturally not stupid enough to believe the answer given by Lu Zhiyao. Looking at Lu Zhiyao who was full of mystery in front of her, Lan Ruoling suddenly remembered what Lin Yinan said before she came to the Prime Minister's Mansion today.
Lin Yinan said that as long as she was by Lu Zhiyao's side, something would definitely happen. If she wanted to catch Chu Ziqian, she would just squat next to Lu Zhiyao. If she had nothing to do and was bored, she would also go to Lu Zhiyao.
Go and wait by Zhiyao's side, you won't let her down.
I didn't expect that something like this would happen to Lan Ruoling on her first day at the Prime Minister's Mansion. What Lin Yinan said was absolutely correct, and what Lu Zhiyao saw was also quite accurate.
Lu Zhiyao and Lan Ruoling worked hard for more than an hour, looking for many brothels and casinos but could not see Wanyue. When two women go to such a place at night, they will always attract people's attention.
Lu Zhiyao glanced coldly at the men who looked at her and Lan Ruoling's smiles with evil intentions, feeling disgusted in his heart.
After all his hard work, Lu Zhiyao returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion dejectedly. Looking at Yudie's expectant expression, he shook his head guiltily.
Yudie's tears fell immediately following Lu Zhiyao's movements, and her body trembled slightly. Yudie couldn't help crying: "If there is really something wrong with Yue'er, what will my mother and I do?
"
"It's not okay yet. Don't say such depressing words." Lu Zhiyao secretly clenched his fists and said, "Go back to your room and rest for me. There is something else I need you to do tomorrow. I will take care of Wan Yue's matter."
Think of ways to."
Lu Zhiyao drove Yudie back, and then asked Lan Ruoling to rest. Sitting alone at the table, Lu Zhiyao thought that he could only watch the people around him being hurt and could do nothing, just like she had
Knowing that his parents and elder brother were being killed but unable to save them, Lu Zhiyao felt deeply disgusted with his own powerlessness and weakness.
She doesn't like herself like this, and she can't let herself go on like this. Neither she nor the people around her want them to be hurt any more. No matter how much effort she puts in or the price she pays, it doesn't matter to her.
As long as she becomes stronger, she can become strong enough to protect anyone she wants to protect.
The next day, he was busy again but gained nothing. Chang Manting, who learned that Wanyue was missing, began to collapse emotionally. Lu Zhiyao faced Chang Manting, who was trying hard not to cry in front of him.
Ting also has Yu Die, and she blames herself very much.
Lu Zhiyao silently exited the room, leaning against the wall and looking up at the sky in a daze. Wan Yue came out early in the morning. It was not far from her home to the Prime Minister's Mansion. It only took a short walk. Who was there as soon as Wan Yue appeared?
Did she get taken away? Was it premeditated or was she unintentionally malicious? If Wan Yue had been interested in her for a long time, then who could this person be?
After thinking about it, Lu Zhiyao still felt that Ye Lianrong was the most likely. Because Wan Yue and Yu Die had been at home and in the Prime Minister's Mansion for so many years. It was impossible for the two of them to offend any other evil people. If they had really offended them before
Others, Lu Zhiyao, didn't believe that he would be so patient and wait so long before taking action. Ever since he became Lu Zhiyao and met Wan Yue and Yudie, the only enemy of these two girls is
Ye Lianrong and Lu Zhiqing. Although Ye Lianrong has been honest and did nothing in the past two days, is it possible that she asked her subordinates to do it? Just like...she asked Ye Shengnan to help dig Yang Xinyuan's grave.
?
"What are you thinking about? So entranced?"
Lu Zhiyao was thinking when a strange voice suddenly came to her ears. Lu Zhiyao followed the voice and saw a man dressed as a servant at the door of the courtyard. She did not recognize him.
Lu Zhiyao looked at the man suspiciously and asked, "Are you from Lan Ruoling?"
When the man heard Lu Zhiyao's question, he smiled, which made Lu Zhiyao alert. The man saw Lu Zhiyao standing up straight and looking at him sternly. He quickly waved his hand and said, "I don't mean any harm.
I just want to talk to the eldest lady about something."
"What do you want to talk to me about?" Lu Zhiyao looked around and guessed the man's identity. "Whose subordinate are you? My father asked you to come here? Or are you one of Ye Lianrong's people?"
The man did not answer Lu Zhiyao's question, but walked boldly to Lu Zhiyao's side. He whispered: "Miss, you help those in the court, but what benefits do you get from them?"
Lu Zhiyao's eyes flashed, and he suddenly remembered where he had heard this voice.
