Chapter 110: Chess Meets Opponents

After most of the day's race against time and fear, with Cen Feng's righteous help, the turmoil was finally temporarily calmed down. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although Gu Hanqing still failed to clear his name and return home safely, at this moment, he was in the Soul Slaughter Division, and Cen Feng was able to thoroughly investigate the case on his behalf, at least he was able to get rid of the coercion and persecution of the prince, which made Cheng Jinzhi feel at ease a little.

But everyone knows that the prince will not give up if he is defeated and humiliated this time. Even in order to protect himself, he will definitely do everything possible to stay out of the situation, even by unscrupulous means.

Therefore, this robbery, which caused countless incidents, seems to be about to be settled, but in fact it is far from over.

But there is another thing to worry about right now.

That is Cheng Xiuning and Cheng Yu who are still trapped in the hands of Yuyin Villa.

In the position of Gao Heng and Cheng Jinzhi, it is a question whether to let it go or not.

If they are released, in the case that Gu Hanqing is not acquitted, these two people will suddenly return safely, and in terms of Cheng Yan's careful thoughts, it will inevitably not arouse his suspicions.

But if you don't let go, the longer it drags on, the greater the chance of exposure. After all, the value of the hostages has been exhausted, and keeping them is not only a burden, but also a little carelessness.

So what is missing so far is a reason to let the hostages go without arousing suspicion.

Of course, in addition to Cheng Jinzhi's concerns, the Cheng family is even more anxious about the safety of these two people. It's just that this kind of fear that sinks on the surface is actually just acting with their own minds for Zhang and Cheng Sujin.

Especially when they saw Cheng Yan dragging his tired body back home and roughly telling him the ins and outs of the matter, the mother and daughter immediately realized that the development of the matter was beyond the control of the two women's families.

In this turbulent game, the prince, who was supposed to win the game, stole chickens and became a suppressed loser. And King Yan, who had always seemed to be in a weak position, turned defeat into victory, and together with Cheng Jinzhi, he retreated safely and soundly.

For Cheng Sujin, who is bent on making Cheng Jinzhi irreversible, it is tantamount to a slap in the face and teaches her to hate it.

She lowered her head, stood aside with a blue face and didn't say a word, she didn't have the heart to care about whether her relatives were dead or alive, until Zhang's sudden words made her eyebrows tremble and let go of her clenched teeth.

"Master, I suspect that the kidnapping of Yuyin Villa is not that simple. ”

Zhang glanced at Cheng Sujin, walked to Cheng Yan, who was miserable, and said a word without pain, but when he saw him, he was shocked, and asked loudly, "What do you mean by that?"

Because the letter from Yuyin Villa indicated that Gu Hanqing should be acquitted before dawn, otherwise the hostage's life would not be guaranteed. But although Cheng Yan had rushed to the palace as soon as possible and used the authority of Emperor Zhou to stop the prince from doing wrong, he still failed to achieve his wish in the end, so that Gu Hanqing was spared from prison.

Thinking of this, his eyes, which were as sharp and deep as an eagle, suddenly became cloudy for a moment.

He was a powerful minister, with infinite glory, turning his hands into clouds and raining on the court.

But in the matter of rescuing his own son, in the face of these gangs in the rivers and lakes that are hidden and scattered, they are so powerless.

"Don't you think it's strange, sir?" Zhang's eyes deepened, and he raised his eyes slightly, "We sent so many people to search the entire capital inside and outside so many times, even if we didn't visit and investigate from house to house, but we couldn't even find a clue." Later, Xuan'er finally said that she knew a friend of Yuyin Villa, but she fell and injured her leg halfway through for no reason. In the end, sir, you pointed the finger at the Jade Pavilion, I thought that I would definitely be able to gain something this time, but I preferred to coincidentally encounter His Royal Highness the King of Jin repeatedly obstructed it, and then ......"

"But then he suddenly and graciously agreed to our men to go and search them, as if he expected them to find no hostages. Cheng Yan interrupted Zhang's words, his eyes stared at him, "That Liu Qing, who came back to his life, said so, right?"

"Yes. Zhang nodded thoughtfully, "Maybe I'm thinking too much, but don't you think, sir, there is a feeling of indescribability, which makes people feel very uncomfortable?"

"King Jin... King Jin..."

Cheng Yan gathered the corners of his eyebrows, closed his eyes slightly and thought carefully, his brain intermittently swept over a few familiar faces, and he was silent for a long time, and suddenly a flash of inspiration made him suddenly open his eyes.

"Yan Wang ......"

Hearing Cheng Yan mention Gao Heng noncommittally, Zhang and Cheng Sujin glanced at each other, and hurriedly stepped forward and said nervously: "Could it be that this matter is really related to His Royal Highness King Yan?"

"Looks like you've thought of it too. Cheng Yan suddenly tightened his eyebrows, and a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes.

Zhang really didn't think about it in the first place. But in the end, a woman, whether it is the acuity of intuition or the insight into the things around her, sometimes she can always get a little better at the critical moment.

After hearing Liu Qing's accidental remarks, he thought of Cheng Xuan's unprovoked injury halfway, and finally recalled Cheng Jinzhi's behavior of suddenly leaving under an excuse when he learned that Cheng Xuan was going to Shuyu Pavilion......

These cases seem to have no connection with each other, but they have become a knot that haunts her heart and she can't ignore it.

However, the original intention of her speculation and suspicion was not to sincerely want to save people, but to have another plan.

"The relationship between King Jin and King Yan, you don't need me to say that you also know. And not long after King Yan arrived at the house, the letter from Yuyin Villa came suddenly, as if he had deliberately calculated the time. ”

Cheng Yan tightened his cheeks and said with a stern expression, the doubts in his heart had become more and more serious.

And Cheng Sujin couldn't wait to ask: "Dad, mother, do you mean that the real mastermind of kidnapping the second sister and the younger brother is actually King Yan?"

"It's not certain yet, but it seems that there are signs of it. ”

Cheng Yan took a heavy breath and tightened his face.

"But if it was really King Yan who was behind his back, why didn't he target the prince and tie up my Cheng family'......s children?

"Sir. ”

Before Cheng Yan could continue, Zhang had already taken the lead in shouting to stop him. In those dark apricot eyes, the gloomy gaze gradually twisted into an undercurrent surging, hesitated for a moment, and suddenly aggravated his tone.

"Could it be that King Yan has already discovered it?"
