Chapter 221 The rescued princess hugged her
The main house of the Su family's old house and the hut where Mao Ya and others lived were empty. The Feng brothers lived in the west wing, and a few rooms were enough for them.
After entering the door, passing through the patio, and reaching the steps of the corridor, Ershi took off his shoes and went up the corridor barefoot. The house was clean and the weather was hot. He liked to go barefoot. Just when he was about to turn around and greet Hua Ping, he suddenly stopped like a government patrolman checking the ward. He opened the door one after another, as if looking for something, which made Ershi nervous, "Brother Hua, we didn't touch anything in the master room."
Hua Ping and Ye Huaizhen just wanted to find their little boss as soon as possible. How could they be in the mood to reply to him? They moved from one room to another until they reached the ward where Mao Ya and Li Xiuzhu lived. They felt something was wrong and quickly shouted, "Er Shi,... Come and see if this room has been disturbed?"
Usually, the Feng brothers go out early and come back late. There is almost no one in this house during the day. When they hear Hua Ping shouting, they feel nervous and happy at the same time. Is there really a thief? Fortunately, the master's house is just a small room where the girls live, so nothing valuable should have been stolen.
The house was being tidied by his wife. Ershi asked his wife to stand at the door of the house to see if anything was missing.
Lancao, Ershi's daughter-in-law, looked at it carefully twice before expressing her doubts, "Someone has come in, but there is nothing missing."
Huaping asked: "How did you know someone came in?"
Lan Cao pointed to the curtain on the small dressing table and said, "This room is small, and it is easy to smell inside. I will open the window every two or three days to remove the smell. But in summer, thunderstorms come at any time, and it is easy to lift the window when the wind and rain blow in." Turning over the cloth, I dropped a pebble at the corner of the cloth, and now the pebble on top fell to the ground. "
Ye Huaizhen followed Ershi's wife's gaze and picked up a small pebble from the ground with tangled threads on it.
The secret agent sent by the Jin Palace is good at finding people by smell. Mao Ya gave Su Ruojin a piece of clothing, and he found the old house through the smell. Could it be that those men tied the young boss to the old house and hid it in the guard room?
Hua Ping and Ye Huaizhen were suddenly excited. They looked at each other and hurriedly searched on the bed, under the bed, and in the cupboard. However, after searching around, they even explored the mouse holes, but Su Ruojin was nowhere to be found.
Could it be that the hidden clue was wrong, but the young lady lived in the old house, so what he smelled was the smell from the past?
The two of them did not give up and decided to look through the old house again. When they were about to go to Su Yanli's study, they heard footsteps from the door of Su's courtyard. They heard that there were many people there.
Hua Ping hurriedly came out to check, and it turned out to be the young prince, accompanied by Prince Wei, Lu Siqing, and the suspected Master Xue.
Zhao Lan saw Hua Ping. Could it be that the palace's secret agent also found this place? Hope surged in his heart, and he quickly asked, "How is it? Did you find it?" His eyes were full of hope, as if he could get the exact answer from Hua Ping's mouth.
Huaping shook his head, not finding the meaning.
Zhao Lan suddenly turned his head and said, Mr. Xue, where is the person you saw?
Mr. Xue looked around and pointed to the water well in the courtyard, "I saw the girl's back to the well through the crack in the door..." Before he could finish his words, he saw a figure flashing in front of him.
Santai chased after him and shouted urgently, "Master, you can't... you can't..."
Prince Wei and Lu Siqing looked at each other in shock, what is Zhao Zijin doing?
Sure enough, in the next second, Zhao Lan was about to jump down the well. Hua Ping was so frightened that he quickly stepped forward and hugged him, "Master, I will jump if you want."
Ershi and his wife were frightened by all the noble gentlemen, and came over tremblingly, "Little Prince, what are you..."
Without saying a word, Ye Huaizhen opened the manhole cover, took out the fire stick from his pocket, lit it up, and looked into the well water. He took a look around and found nothing. He sank the bucket again, and there was no obstruction by any foreign objects.
When she was performing these movements, Zhao Lan was like a piece of fragile jade, as if it accidentally fell to the ground and disintegrated until Ye Huaizhen shook his head at him, "Master, no."
Zhao Lan seemed to be reborn, and a sudden burst of excitement bound his arms. He ran to the edge of the well and looked into the water. Yes, it was empty. Nothing...really nothing...
What about his Ah Jin? Where exactly?
Seeing that the sky was getting darker and darker, if he could not find Ah Jin again, he would miss the best time to find him. He unconsciously looked at Xue Dada again.
This...this...Master Xue understood something no matter how late he was, "Is Ajin missing?"
No one answered him, and everyone was silent.
The little boss is missing? Ershi and his wife were so shocked that their pupils nearly popped out.
"But I'm not old. I did see that girl's back. Isn't that girl with Ah Jin?"
Ershi replied, "No, he has been looking after the Su family's new house."
Ershi's wife pulled her husband and whispered, "This morning, Mother Dong came to the shop and said that the girl named Li went to find her mother when the capital was in chaos, and she hasn't come back yet."
He is obviously from the Ministry of Industry, but Mr. Xue now looks like he is from the Ministry of Punishment or Dali Temple. "Did the girl surnamed Li kidnapped Ah Jin and wanted to extort money?"
Lu Siqing had always suspected Mr. Xue. When he heard this, he seemed to deliberately clear his suspicions. He turned his eyes at him and asked Zhao Lan, "Zijin..." There is no such thing here, so he quickly followed Bi Changgui's clues. Find someone.
Zhao Lan raised his head, looked across the patio, and looked at the vast night sky. The dark sky was like a man-eating mouth, devouring everything, making people feel fearful.
"Santai..."
"Young Master—"
"I have to dig deep into the ground to find Ah Jin."
He had a hunch that Ah Jin was here.
Digging three feet into the ground?
Wait, Ershi thought of something and shouted, "Wait a moment."
After that, he ran straight to the cellar door with bare feet, opened the lid, and went down.
Ye Huaizhen quickly came over with a fire certificate to light the way for him.
Zhao Lan was stunned for a moment, then rushed over and followed Er Shi down to the cellar. As soon as he went down a few stairs, he saw Su Ruojin lying in the cellar, her face was pale and she had been unconscious for a long time.
"Ajin...Ajin..."
Ershi was pushed by the excited little prince and almost fell down. Before he could reach the bottom, he jumped to the side and gave way to the little prince. He watched nervously as the little prince probed the little Dong's nose with his hand. Seeing that he was relieved, he followed suit. Relieved.
Okay, I found the person, everything is fine!
Half an hour later, Su Ruojin was awakened by the imperial doctor's acupuncture needle.
At this moment, Su Dalang and Su Yanzu also found the old house.
She opened her eyes, as if she had been seriously ill, and was very weak. She glanced around with difficulty before she seemed to remember something, "I...I remember buying cloth in the West Market, and there was a little boy. baby…"
Little boy…
When Mao Ya saw her little master finally waking up, she didn't care that Zhao Lan was dominating the bedside, threw herself on her lap, buried her face in her legs and cried silently. Her tears instantly soaked Su Ruojin's legs.
"Ya...Sister Ya..."
Zhao Lan didn't care anymore, put his arms around Su Ruojin, and buried his head in the little lady's neck.
Su Dalang:…
Su Yanzu:…
Prince Wei: ...Come on, let him go find Bi Changgui first!
Lu Youbai thought to himself that it seemed that he had to go back first to persuade his niece to give up the marriage with Prince Jin's Mansion.
Wei and Lu looked at each other and understood that Zhao Lan had no time to pay attention to them now.
Santai sent you two respectful greetings, "I would like to thank you two princes and lords on behalf of my master. I will thank you two again after my master calms down."
Wei and Lu smiled slightly, turned around and left the Su family's wing, and soon left Osmanthus Alley with their men.
Mrs. Su Er is fine. Mr. Xue didn't know whether he sighed or breathed a sigh of relief, or both, but there was one thing he couldn't figure out. The girl named Li wanted to blackmail the Su family, so why did she hide her in the Su family's old house?
Are you sure that the people from the Third Division will not search the Su family's old house? Needless to say, this reverse thinking almost happened. If he hadn't suddenly developed feng shui, Prince Zhao Xiao would probably not have thought of the Su family's old house.
In a dark room somewhere in the capital, Li Xiuzhu was beaten so hard that he could neither survive nor die.
The man with only one eye exposed said quietly, "It's not that easy to die if you ruin my good deeds."
"Use whatever punishment can torture people."
"Yes, sir." The masked man sneered, turned and left the lynching chamber.
After turning the long passage, the masked man arrived at a gorgeously decorated room. There was a middle-aged man sitting in the main seat. His sinister eyes suddenly turned flattering, "Master, why are you here?"
"Let me see how you fail."
The masked man pulled off his mask and smiled coquettishly: "If it weren't for that girl, I would have done the opposite of this trick."
The middle-aged man gave him a cold look, "Have you always been so smart?"
The masked man shut up in anger.
The middle-aged man said, "Since we have failed, the pieces that need to be discarded should be discarded, and the connections that should be severed should be severed. Do you understand?"
"Yes, Master."
In the wing room of the Su family's old house, people were hugging each other. Su Ruojin was sweating profusely due to fever. If Su Yanzu hadn't pulled the two apart, the little niece would have been strangled to death by the master and the servants instead of being killed by the bad guys. .
Mao Ya knelt on the ground and begged for punishment, but no one tried to persuade her.
"No one can prevent special situations, how can I blame you?" Su Ruojin asked her brother to help her up, but Mao Ya refused to be pulled at all and just knelt down.
"Deserves punishment." Zhao Lan said coldly.
"Little...Brother Zhao, you can't blame Sister Ya in that situation." Although Su Ruojin didn't know how she was knocked unconscious, she still remembered the situation when she rescued the little boy. In that case, both How could it be possible to cover everything while not harming civilians and saving a little boy at the same time.
He almost died, but still thinking about his servants, Zhao Lan didn't want to hear a word, and just hugged the princess. Everyone was so frightened that they took three steps back, and everyone's eyes widened.
Prince Zhao, is this your wife? Even if it is, it can't be so fierce, right?
Su Yanzu: ...Does his brother know that the student is like this with his daughter?
Su Dalang: ...Brother Zhao, this job should be done by his brother, why are you still rushing to do it? He looked down at his small body. The fifteen-year-old boy seemed much shorter than the nineteen-year-old boy. He seemed unsure whether he could easily lift his sister sideways.
Ouch, Su Dalang, your sister is about to be abducted. You are still thinking about whether you are tall enough, but you are really yours.
Hua Ping, Ye Huaizhen and others were not surprised and silently moved out of the way for the young prince, bowing and watching him off.
The person being hugged - Su Ruojin: ...Why do I feel like there is no way it will end if I don't marry the little prince.
Zhao Lan lowered his eyes and looked at the weak man in his arms, feeling a protective urge rushing towards him like a flood.
Su Ruojin: ...Although I can't bear the fierce surge, it feels so good.
He took her out of the wing and went into the boudoir where she lived when she was a child. He carefully put the little lady on the bed, lowered his head and coaxed gently: "Wait a moment, drink some ginseng soup, have a good sleep, everything will be fine when you wake up." ”
The young lady smiled slightly and said, "Brother Zhao, thank you for your hard work in finding me!"
Brother Zhao's heart melted.
"No." Zhao Lan reached out and patted her gently, "I'll have someone bring the ginseng soup."
"Thank you, Brother Zhao."
All the hard work was worth it. Now the little lady calls him Brother Zhao. It sounds so nice, and the corners of Zhao Lan's mouth rise.
Chunxiao knocks on the door.
"Come in."
Chunxiao took the tray and put it in front of the table, looking for a towel and preparing to feed the second lady.
"go out."
"Yes, Master."
Zhao Lan picked up the small bowl and fed it himself.
It's not like he's seriously ill, he's just in a coma. Su Ruojin sat up awkwardly and funny.
Zhao Lan hurriedly put down the bowl and came to help her, "Lie down and I'll feed you."
Su Ruojin, who was sitting up, held back her smile and waved her hand, "No need really, I'll do it myself."
Zhao Lan insisted on feeding.
Su Ruojin: ...boys and girls feeding, this scene...what do you think...how...
She insists on drinking it by herself, otherwise she won't drink it, which is very willful.
This time it was Zhao Lan's turn to be helpless, "Okay, finish drinking early and go to bed early."
Although he was in coma for nearly a day, Su Ruojin still felt sleepy after drinking the ginseng soup. He didn't care that Zhao Lan was by his side, closed his eyes, and fell asleep again after a while.
Zhao Lan asked Chunxiao and Ye Huaizhen to guard him and left the room.
Santai hurriedly stepped forward, "Prince Wei is still continuing to investigate."
Zhao Lan nodded: "Tonight, we will rest in the Su family's guest room."
"Yes, Master."
Su Yanzu and Su Dalang did not leave at night, but also stayed at the Su family's old house.
Mao Ya knelt all night. On the morning of the next day, Ye Huaizhen came to pull her, but she still refused to get up.
Ye Huaizhen said seriously, "You mean, I have to kneel for three days and three nights?"
"I didn't mean that?"
"But you and I protect people together. You have a responsibility and so do I."
"I'm different from you."
Ye Huaizhen sneered, "Then kneel down and **** your legs, so you can better protect my little boss."
Mao Ya:…
Ye Huaizhen said something, looked at her coldly and left the room.
Huaping sat with his arms folded outside the door of Su Ruojin's room and waited all night. When he saw Ye Huaizhen coming out, he asked, "How is the second lady?"
Ye Huaizhen replied: "Very good."
That's good, Huaping's hanging heart finally let go.
After a night of sleep and a hearty breakfast in the morning, Su Ruojin finally came back to life.
Only then did they have the energy to discuss what happened in the West Market yesterday. Everyone agreed that this was a carefully planned kidnapping incident.
Su Ruojin asked Zhao Lan and Hua Ping: "Where do they want to get me?"
Huaping pursed his lips and said, "Second Lady, you know a lot of things. You may have been sent to Liaoxia Kingdom like Carpenter Li and Carpenter Zhang."
Is that so?
