It's reasonable to do something to the crown princess, after all, the princess has a different identity.

But what about Yan Qingrui?

Why would anyone even want to do it to her?

Although the queen is the one who wants to do something to her, it is only because she wants to firmly hold Shangguan Qianyu and her son Huangfu Jingyan together to deal with the crown prince.

The Empress ordered the Praetorian Guards to conduct a thorough investigation for an entire day, but found nothing.

The two big living people seemed to have evaporated, and they couldn't see anyone alive or dead.

At night, in a courtyard in Xicheng, in a dim firewood room, a person was tied up with five flowers, stuffed with cloth in his mouth, and threw it in the firewood room. In the corner of the firewood room are two bowls, one bowl has half a bowl of water, and the other bowl contains two steamed buns that have been dried and hardened.

The man was in his forties, dressed in high-quality clothes, like a wealthy businessman, and looked very rich.

At this moment, he tried to open his eyes, a pair of eyes shining with shrewdness, carefully looked at the environment in which he was located, and listened to the movement outside, and found that there was no sound, he immediately sat up, curled up as much as he could, put his head to his knees, and clamped the cloth that appeared in his mouth with his knees, trying to get the cloth out.

After several efforts, he finally succeeded.

There was a hint of joy in his eyes, and he rolled and threw himself on the edge of the bowl, picking up one with his mouth and knocking it on the ground, and the bowl suddenly broke into several petals.

He turned around with difficulty, and with his bound hands after several struggles, he grasped a fragment, and even the cut on his hand did not bother to scratch the rope between his wrists.

This person also has real perseverance, and when he cut his hands several times, he didn't say a word, and his hands were cut bloody.

The rope was finally cut, and as soon as he made a mistake with both hands, he immediately ripped off the rope from his body and went to untie the rope on his feet.

Just as he finally stood up and was about to open the door and go out, the door suddenly opened.

A young man in his twenties stood at the door with his hands on his chest, teasing: "The hands and feet are quite neat!"

The man who looked like a rich businessman looked at the young man, a trace of chagrin flashed in his eyes, obviously success was in front of him, but he fell short, his eyes rolled around, and he immediately said with a smile: "Brother, you arrested me here? I have no grievances with you in the past, and I have no enmity in the near future, brother let me go!"

The young man laughed and said, "Since you are here, you still want to let you go?

The rich merchant saw the smile on the corner of the young man's mouth, and he couldn't understand his intentions for a while, his eyes flashed, and he immediately smiled again, and said: "I understand, brother is seeking wealth, right?

The young man rolled his eyes and said, "Don't pretend in front of me, go!"

The rich merchant nodded and said, "Where are you going?"

The young man said impatiently, "Go where you need to go!"

The rich merchant looked submissive, and seemed to be very cooperative, but just as he was walking towards the door, he suddenly slammed into the young man.

He had already observed the outside by the moonlight, and the gate was to the east, and there was no one else in the whole courtyard.

The weight of the whole body combined with the force of a collision will inevitably knock people away. When the time comes, he will take the road to the gate, as long as he gets out of this gate, there must be a street outside, and it is dark and dark, and he will be safe in any alley he hides into.
