Jiang He felt a little regretful in his heart. If he knew that the woman with County Master Huihe was a princess, he would not provoke her even if she was beaten to death. Today he suffered a loss from County Master Huihe, and out of anger he sent someone to follow them.
.
He still looked down upon the mere county chief. If Chen Yu was rescued by them, someone had to make up for it, so he told his men to find an opportunity to kidnap the girl next to the county chief.
Unexpectedly, it was successful.
But who would have thought that the person they kidnapped turned out to be a princess. You must know that Beichen is just such a princess, and she is His Majesty's favorite. Now that the princess is missing, it is not a trivial matter.
Jiang He knew that a disaster was imminent, but he still had a glimmer of luck. After all, the person had been sent out of the capital, and as long as he didn't tell anyone, no one would know the whereabouts of the princess.
Yuan Shuo refused to admit it when he saw him, and a murderous look came out of his eyes. He took out his sword from his waist and placed it on Jiang He's neck: "Say it or not?"
Jiang He, however, was not afraid to say: "His Royal Highness King Jing heard that I kidnapped the princess without any basis. I wonder if there is any justice? This is the emperor's feet. Even if you want to convict me, I should be convinced."
"What a sharp mouth."
Mu Yun'an snorted coldly: "You know that kidnapping a princess is a capital crime, so you won't admit it even if you think about it, but it doesn't matter, I will let you say it."
As she spoke, she said to Yuan Shuo: "Your Highness King Jing, I have a way to make him speak, and please hand him over to me. This Tongshun Gambling House is running rampant in the capital, and there must be someone behind it.
Please also ask Your Highness King Jing to take the opportunity to conduct a thorough investigation and find out who gave them the courage and what kind of shameful deeds they are hiding behind their backs?"
She glanced around and continued in a cool voice: "It's best to check if there are any secret rooms, secret passages or the like here. You might gain something."
Yuan Shuolin looked at Mu Yun'an. Although she was a woman, at such a young age, she had the character of a general. Her aura was not inferior to that of a man at all, and it was unreasonable and convincing.
He nodded and said, "Okay, I'll leave it to you." After saying that, he asked his men to search the entire Tongshun Casino.
When Jiang He heard Mu Yun'an's words, he was already panicking. There was indeed a secret room in their Tongshun Gambling House where the shady account books were hidden.
Once he is found out, the entire Prime Minister's Mansion will be implicated.
However, these are no longer things he can worry about, because he himself cannot protect himself.
Mu Yun'an took Jiang He back to the General's Mansion. She handed over to Qingying and asked him to make Jiang He speak no matter what method he used to reveal the whereabouts of Princess Jiahe.
That night, the capital city was in turmoil again, and Yuan Shuolin did find a secret room in Tongshun Gambling House and found a thick account book from inside.
The account books clearly record the transactions between Tongshun Gambling House and Han Xiang's Mansion, as well as some shady secrets.
On Mu Yun'an's side, Qingying lived up to expectations and finally opened Jiang He's mouth and learned where Yuan Jiahe had been sent.
Before dawn, Yuan Shuolin entered the palace with his account book. Then he took His Majesty's imperial order and dispatched the imperial guards out of the city to search for Princess Jiahe's whereabouts.
At this time, in a ruined temple outside Beijing.
Yuan Jiahe slowly opened her eyes and found that she was leaning on Xuan Du's shoulder, covered with his robe. She was stunned for a moment and hurriedly sat up. Then she remembered that they were talking around the bonfire last night, but
She dozed off and somehow fell asleep.
This night she slept very peacefully, without even dreaming.
"you're awake."
Xuan Du's voice came, but it made Yuan Jiahe blush again inexplicably. She nodded and said: "I fell asleep like this last night, why didn't you wake me up?"
She had never slept like this before in her entire life, and it was with a strange man, and she didn't even feel defensive.
