Lu Zhiyao looked at the man in front of her with flickering eyes, and finally smiled bitterly. She lowered her voice and asked, "You are so brave, are you afraid that I will catch you now?"
Lu Zhiyao never expected that Chu Ziqian, whom they wanted to catch, would sneak into the Prime Minister's Mansion in disguise. If he hadn't stepped forward on his own initiative, who would have thought that he was right under their noses?
"You are reluctant." Chu Ziqian raised his eyebrows and smiled. After seeing the emotion in Lu Zhiyao's eyes change instantly, he also became serious. "Don't you want to save your little maid?"
Chu Ziqian talked about Wan Yue, which made Lu Zhiyao's heart skip a beat. Looking around with his peripheral vision, Lu Zhiyao looked calm and said in an indifferent tone: "Follow me."
Lu Zhiyao returned to his room and called everyone out. Because it was broad daylight, no one expected that Chu Ziqian would show up, so when Yudie and Lan Ruoling heard Lu Zhiyao say, she
The servant I brought back was from Ye Lianrong's side. When I wanted to ask him a few questions, I left happily.
In the empty room, Chu Ziqian's smile slowly turned malicious. Lu Zhiyao glanced at his evil smile and smiled coldly. "Tell me, what do you know? You took him away
My maid?"
"Miss, please don't accuse a good person unjustly. Besides, I have very high standards. Since I have fallen in love with you, how can I attack your little maid who has not grown up yet?" Chu Ziqian leaned back on the chair casually.
On his back, he picked up the fruit on the table and took a bite, then said to Lu Zhiyao: "If I help you find the person, what benefits will you give me?"
"What benefit do you want?"
"I want you."
Chu Ziqian's straightforward words made Lu Zhiyao want to beat him up. She looked at Chu Ziqian silently, and the faint chill radiating from Lu Zhiyao's body clearly expressed her meaning.
Seeing that there was nothing good to gain, Chu Ziqian wanted to get up and leave. But before he took two steps, he was stopped by Lu Zhiyao.
"What kind of place do you think this is? Do you really think you can come and leave whenever you want?"
"Otherwise?" Chu Ziqian turned around with a bright smile, not thinking that those Lan Ruoling people outside could really do anything to him.
"Would you like to take a gamble and see if I can catch you?" Lu Zhiyao also stood up with a smile, lowered his head and rolled up his sleeves gracefully, and said something that surprised Chu Ziqian.
Come.
Although this Lu Zhiyao is a little different from other rich ladies, at least she didn't yell at the top of her lungs like she was killing a pig after seeing her and knowing her identity, but Chu Zi
Qian didn't think she had the strength to say such a thing.
Chu Ziqian turned around and looked at Lu Zhiyao, and asked: "Lan Ruoling can't catch me, can you?"
"Try it. If I lose, this body will be yours for one night, but you have to tell me where my maid is now, how about that?"
"No regrets?"
"I will never regret it." Lu Zhiyao's confident tone made Chu Ziqian silent for a long time. The two stood opposite each other, looking at each other wordlessly.
Chu Ziqian nodded slowly, letting Lu Zhiyao's dim eyes shine again. He strode up to Chu Ziqian. Lu Zhiyao looked up at him slightly and asked, "Where is Wan Yue?"
?”
Chu Ziqian sighed softly, recalled the scene he saw that day, and slowly told Lu Zhiyao what happened.
After Chu Ziqian met Lu Zhiyao that night, he was busy picking the "flowers" that he had long admired. After getting rid of Lan Ruoling, he had a happy night. The sky turned bright the next day, and Chu Ziqian
Ziqian made up his mind to sneak into the Prime Minister's Mansion. But while passing by a small alley behind the Prime Minister's Mansion, Chu Ziqian happened to see Wan Yue being tied up.
"The three men moved very quickly. I could tell they were well prepared."
"Do you know where they took the people?" Lu Zhiyao asked anxiously.
"I'm not interested in that girl, so I didn't go with her. But..." Chu Ziqian changed the subject, and Lu Zhiyao, who was about to call him nonsense, had to swallow his words. "They
They all have the same tattoos on their bodies, and I can see them clearly."
Three people with the same tattoo, are they good partners with similar personalities? Or are they an organized gang?
"What else do you know?" Lu Zhiyao thought, since Chu Ziqian dared to act like a good boy, he should know some other inside stories.
"What's so good..."
Before Chu Ziqian could finish his words, Lu Zhiyao's right hand was forcefully pushed back. Lu Zhiyao's speed was very fast and his force was very strong. This made the unprepared Chu Ziqian immediately shut up in pain.
, no more nonsense.
Chu Ziqian secretly sighed with surprise in his heart, but he spoke with the intention of saying that he knew everything.
"It's the Beauty Pavilion. It's full of traffickers who specialize in selling women."
Beauty Pavilion? Lu Zhiyao wrote down this name in his mind, and after confirming it with Chu Ziqian again, he whispered: "The day I bring Wanyue back is the day I will compete with you, so get lost."
Chu Ziqian walked out of Lu Zhiyao's room, feeling very interested in Lu Zhiyao. Lu Zhiyao watched him slowly walk away and found Lan Ruoling over.
"Does Miss Lan know about the Beauty Pavilion?" Lu Zhiyao asked straight to the point.
Lan Ruoling was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "I know, but why do you ask? Those people are not easy to mess with."
"Wanyue was captured by them." Lu Zhiyao could tell from Lan Ruoling's expression that this beauty pavilion was not easy to deal with. Moreover, Lu Zhiyao had some understanding of those so-called human traffickers.
.
The Xia Lai Kingdom was established not long after the overthrow of the previous dynasty. The rampage of human traffickers has made many government offices helpless against them. Many corrupt officials have chosen to cooperate with these human traffickers and buy from them at low prices.
Beauties make themselves happy, and then use their rights to give them invisible protection.
Lu Zhiyao sat on the chair and pressed his temples with a headache. Lan Ruoling looked at Lu Zhiyao's distressed look and was a little embarrassed, because the Beauty Pavilion is really not easy to move. If not for other reasons,
The real master behind the scenes, Lan Ruoling, would not help Lu Zhiyao get involved in this matter again.
"I'm afraid I can't help you with this matter." Lan Ruoling spoke softly, with a hint of guilt in her words.
"It's okay, I will find a way myself." Lu Zhiyao smiled understandingly, "Catching that perverted thief Chu Ziqian has done me the greatest favor."
Lan Ruoling hesitantly walked out of Lu Zhiyao's room. Lu Zhiyao thought hard and felt that there was still something he had overlooked. Since the Beauty Pavilion is such a powerful organization, why did it choose Wan Yue? It must be...
Someone is behind this, so who could this person be?
Lan Ruoling made her attitude clear, so the only one Lu Zhiyao could rely on was herself. She called Yudie and told her that she had found out Wan Yue's whereabouts. Yudie's joyful expression made Lu Zhiyao's heart feel a little prickly.
pain.
It has been two days. Even if Wan Yue is rescued, he still has to wait a few more days. After so many days, he wonders if Wan Yue will be ruined by those beasts. Lu Zhiyao remembered that he had been thrown into prison and thrown into
She had to worry about Wan Yue because of those memories among the bandits. Wan Yue had a strong temper. If she committed suicide like she did then...
"Yu Die, only the two of us can rescue Wan Yue now, not the people from the yamen outside. I have something to say to you first. You have to listen carefully."
Lu Zhiyao's words made Yudie's nerves tense. She nodded nervously and looked at Lu Zhiyao intently, listening to her words.
"The person who took Wanyue away was an organization called 'Beauty Pavilion'. Lan Ruoling didn't dare to interfere in this matter, so you can imagine how troublesome this matter is. I promise you, I will do my best.
I can bring Wan Yue back, but I can't guarantee that Wan Yue's body will still be intact after she comes back. I'm not afraid of anything else. I'm just afraid that Wan Yue has been sold and wasted by them. If not, Wan Yue would rather die than surrender.
Choose to commit suicide, then..."
"Miss, please stop talking!" Yudie was frightened, and tears were already welling up in her eyes. "Wanyue will be fine, she won't be!"
"I hope so." Lu Zhiyao looked at Yudie with a heavy heart. Although he promised her that he would definitely rescue Wanyue, Lu Zhiyao still had no idea how to proceed. "Don't reveal this matter to others.
One sentence, including your mother, understand? Just tell her that we have found Wan Yue's whereabouts and have sent someone to pick her up. If Aunt Chang's body stays like this for a few more days, I'm afraid she won't be able to bear it."
"Okay, I'll tell mother now." Yudie nodded with tears in her eyes, and then walked out.
After Yudie left, Lu Zhiyao punched the table. No matter what, he had to find out where the Beauty Pavilion was first. Lan Ruoling didn't dare to come forward to help, but she should provide herself with some information.
Is it still possible?
After Lan Ruoling knew that the matter involved Beauty Pavilion, she immediately went back and reported it to Lin Yinan. After hearing Lan Ruoling's words, Lin Yinan's first reaction was that Lu Zhiyao was going to make a big fuss this time.
Lin Yinan smiled slightly, glanced at Lan Ruoling's uneasy expression, and ordered: "Keep an eye on her, and come back and tell me if she makes any moves."
"Master, are you planning to interfere in this matter?"
Lan Ruoling asked worriedly. Lin Yinan had never been involved in foreign affairs before, so his enemies were only the princes. But if things continue like this, Lan Ruoling is worried that Lin Yinan will get more and more involved in Lu Zhiyao's affairs.
At that time, there will be more and more enemies.
"I have my own plan, let's go." Lin Yinan did not directly answer Lan Ruoling's question. His calm gaze became rippled after Lan Ruoling left. Lin Yinan suddenly wanted to know if Lu Zhiyao knew what she had done this time.
How is she going to clean up this mess after becoming someone else?
