18|(Catching insects) Chapter 18: Prince Chu Yao

There is a good teahouse in the capital city, which enjoys a good reputation in all countries, and many people come here in order to taste the king of tea in the pot of tea that is called thousands of miles away.

The southernmost part of the second floor of the teahouse, called Sauvignon Blanc, is a private room called Sauvignon Blanc, with green yarn swaying inside, which is very quiet and elegant.

Fan Zhanhong sat on the coffee table, like sitting on pins and needles, but he had no choice but to pour the cold tea again and pour a glass of freshly cooked fragrance.

He leaned his head into the room again, on the Arhat couch near the window, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sat there, his phoenix eyes drooped slightly, his thin lips were like Dan, and he pouted with a faint smile, warm as jade, and the gentleman was humble, as dazzling as glass, but quietly introverted and deep.

Whenever His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is struggling, he plays chess alone like this, and this thought is a long time, even a day. He didn't dare to urge, understanding that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was considering the overall situation, and if there was no perfect strategy, the previous deployment would be in vain. In fact, he was also thinking about a way to do it just in case, but now the situation is anxious, and he has to overturn the denial again and again.

At this moment, there was a knock on the carved screen door, which swept away the silence that had lasted for a long time in the private room.

Fan Zhanhong got up and opened the screen door, and it turned out to be Mo Yun, the left guard of the East Palace. He knew that Mo Yun was going back and forth to explain the matter to His Royal Highness the Prince, so he glanced at it and let Mo Yun come in directly.

Mo Yun didn't hesitate, walked to the veil, and waved his hand inward.

"What's the fuss about?" Prince Chu Yao's voice was indifferent, like gurgling water, clear and graceful.

"The people from the Marquis Mansion of Jingyang are chasing a woman, causing a riot, and the people from the East Palace have received the flag fire signal and have rushed to support."

When Fan Zhanhong heard this, he realized that the noise on the street just now was actually like this, and it seemed that the people of the Hou Mansion had found the eyebrowless woman who took Ah Yi away.

Prince Chu Yao knew that this woman must have something to do with Ah Yi's disappearance. He stood up, walked elegantly, and walked to the front of the green gauze curtain, his voice was light, not angry: "You led someone to capture her alive and took her to the house on Jiuting Street." ”

Mo Yun received the order, immediately walked out of the private room, led a few secret guards, and searched all the way.

Fan Zhanhong originally wanted to go together, but he thought that Mo Yunai was the left guard of the East Palace, and the people who led it were all the prince's close guards, so there would definitely be no mistakes in this matter, as long as he continued to stay with the prince and waited to go to the house to interrogate people.

***

Shen Hanyue ran wildly all the way, and the officers and soldiers behind her failed to get rid of it, but chased closer and closer, it was not a way to go on like this, she saw a deep alley beside her, and immediately turned around quickly, but after entering, she began to regret it, if it was a dead end, it would be terrible!

She was in a hurry, and when she raised her eyes, she caught a glimpse of a gate that happened to be open under the red lantern hanging high in front of her, and several bewitching prostitutes. The woman was helping a drunken man into the carriage.

Shen Hanyue took advantage of the carriage to come out, turned sideways into the green building, and saw that it was the backyard where the prostitutes parked the carriage.

A puppy turtle slave in the corner spotted her and immediately shouted, "What are you doing here?" ”

Shen Hanyue just wanted to get rid of the pursuers, and she couldn't care about much: "I don't do any work!" The turtle slave took a moment and didn't react.

She took the opportunity to pull off the magnolia hairpin on her head, poked it hard at the buttocks of one of the horses, then quickly turned around and continued to poke at the big horses behind her, and then dodged to the side, not letting the horse kick her.

At this time, the footsteps of the officers and soldiers pouring in sounded, and Shen Hanyue did not dare to stop, and ran along the corridor covered with red drapes to the inside.

The chaos here, combined with the panicked handling of the horses by the grooms, should have deterred the pursuers.

She was exhausted, but she couldn't stop, and went around behind a rockery, from where she tried to climb the wall and escape outside. Who knows, a pair of wild mandarin ducks are having fun here, they are oblivious to entanglement, and they want to untie each other's loose clothes.

The woman found Shen Hanyue, and screamed, and the man was also caught off guard, and instinctively pulled down his pants.

"It's okay, it's okay, I'll just pass by, you go on, go on...... Out of the way! Shen Hanyue's face turned red suddenly, and she said very embarrassedly, and she didn't stop, she climbed the rockery three times and twice, crossed the wall, and turned over.

The conversation between the man and the woman came again from within the walls: "Give money, give money!" ”

"I haven't gone in yet, what money to give?"

"Aren't you already out? Hurry up, the old lady is going to pick up the next one! ”

"If you are ruthless, your thighs will be sent away."

"......" Shen Hanyue stood outside the wall crying and laughing, those officers and soldiers should be going around a few times inside.

She patted her cheek, trying to wave away the embarrassment, at this time, a throbbing pain in her arm came, thinking that it was a bruise, but she didn't have time to lift her sleeves to see clearly, just looked around, trying to find a place to hide first, and then disguise herself.

In order to avoid the pursuers, Shen Hanyue walked in the opposite direction along the wall, but after taking a few steps, several black shadows suddenly flashed in front of and behind her.

Shen Hanyue's heart trembled, looking at their figures and outfits, they must be practitioners who are good at kung fu. This battle was different from the previous ones, although the number of people was small, but her way had been completely blocked.

One of the men with single eyelids, who looked like a leader, saw him gesture his long sword left and right, and the men in black began to shuttle and jump in an orderly manner.

Shen Hanyue didn't have time to react, only to see them throw up the white hemp rope, like a few silver lightning, in front of her eyes, still in a trance, already tied up by them. Those people didn't feel enough, and put a net over her.

Shen Hanyue hadn't eaten for a day, and she hadn't even dripped, so she couldn't support it for a long time. She ran for so long, and finally got caught, knowing that it was useless to struggle, she gave up resistance completely. Because of the depression of consciousness, she had no will to support herself, Shen Hanyue's eyes darkened, and she fainted directly.

**************

Shen Hanyue's head was in a daze, and the cold wind around her was blowing, so she couldn't open her eyes, and she tried to see through the white mist, wanting to see what was going on.

But suddenly being blindfolded, Shen Hanyue was startled at first, how familiar the voice came: "Bage Yalu, Yo Xi Yo Xi, what is the flower girl doing?" ”

Shen Hanyue smiled and waved the palm covering her eyes, "I don't do any work, I just go to buy you a paintbrush." She raised her eyes and stared at Ye Heng's handsome face, and he smiled brightly, reassuring her.

Suddenly, he was jerked aside, and many people gathered around him to point fingers. Those were debtors, and they spat and cursed as they threw a thick stack of court summons on him. There is also a middle-aged woman who accused him of indecent sexual assault, and she also led her family to attack him. Even the owner of the car who hit Ye Heng bit back to find him trouble.

Ye Heng looked at the noisy people around him in astonishment, looking helpless and hesitant. These vexatious people were all found by Fu Yifei, Shen Hanyue was about to go over to help, Ye Heng's expression became a little terrifying in an instant, and then he turned around and jumped off a bottomless pool.

"Ye Heng-" Shen Hanyue was caught off guard and wanted to reach out and drag him back, but the air began to condense, and in an instant, the beads splashed jade, and they were unexpectedly connected into one, enveloping her in the whirlpool of air currents.

As soon as the picture turned, I saw Ah Yi's fair face, her eyes showing fear, and in the wooden cage, she kept calling her sister until the carriage was far away, and she could no longer see or hear.

"Ah Yi-" Shen Hanyue shouted in pain, and lightning and thunder began to roar overhead, crackling, and pouring rain. She was soaked in the icy rain and shivered. The pouring rain poured down from top to bottom and into her mouth, with bitterness and the saltiness of tears......

Her consciousness became more and more foggy, and she suddenly felt choked on something, cough cough cough...... I coughed breathlessly until I slowly opened my eyes.

At first glance, it was the man who caught her single eyelid. He pressed Shen Hanyue's acupoint vigorously with his thumb, obviously wanting her to wake up quickly from the coma.

Shen Hanyue quickly regained her senses, twisted her head in disgust, and wanted to skim off the thumb under her nose. When the man saw that she was awake, he did not say a word, and he got up and stood aside. She found herself still sturdy, lying on the cold ground, wet, apparently splashed with cold water.

Shen Hanyue looked around again, and it was a quiet study.

"Who and where are you?" A strange man's voice poured into his ears, Shen Hanyue followed the prestige, and there was a young man sitting on the Taishi chair in the center, he was dressed in a dark brocade robe, and his hair was exquisite with a jade crown.

Fan Zhanhong saw that her consciousness had not fully recovered, and asked again: "What is your surname?" And the people who were with you the other day, where did they go? As he spoke, he raised his bony index finger to the center of his eyebrows.

Shen Hanyue immediately understood that this person was asking Ah Yi, looked at it a little suspiciously, and asked, "What do you want to do with him?" ”

"Whatever I ask you, you answer, and the rest of the nonsense doesn't need to be said." This voice was like a clear spring, but it was not mixed with any emotion, and the speed of speech was very slow, but it made Shen Hanyue's body even colder.

Only then did she know that there was still a person sitting under the carved mullioned window at the innermost end of the study.

The man was dressed in a white cloud brocade robe, looking handsome, graceful and noble, even if he was used to seeing Fu Yifei and Ye Heng's handsomeness, Shen Hanyue was still shocked by his Qingjun Wushuang.

He sat on the Luohan couch near the window, his eyes were like stars, and the breath around him was indifferent and lofty, tactful and deep. This man is too dazzling, and a glimpse of it is enough to make people secretly agree.

But Shen Hanyue is not a simple and easily tempted character, she was not confused by this man, but felt a little dangerous, instinctively raised her heart defense, coupled with the white brocade robe on his body, the disgust in her heart was even more layered.

In his previous life, Fu Yifei liked white and preferred her to wear a white dress.

At this time, Shen Hanyue, as long as she sees a man in white, she will think of Fu Yifei in her previous life, and she will also think of the dean's mother who died in the hospital because of a heart attack. At that time, seeing the white cloth covering the dean's mother, Shen Hanyue felt particularly dazzling, which made her resentful and heartbreaking.

These past events made her feel heavy, but she still held on to her spirit and struggled to sit up.

Fan Zhanhong was very anxious and took a step towards her: "Do you want to say it?" ”

Shen Hanyue didn't know who they were, and she couldn't tell if they were good or evil for the time being, and who was Ah Yi? She pretended to be indifferent and indifferent, and said, "You want to find someone to tie me up, can I remember?" ”

Fan Zhanhong saw that she was arrogant, and she was anxious to find Ah Yi, it seemed that it was useless to ask well, did she want to be punished? He turned his head to look at the prince, wanting to see what the prince meant?

Prince Chu Yao's eyes were faint, and he gently swept over the woman sitting on the ground, and the curvature between his lips was almost invisible. Fan Zhanhong knew that this was a precursor to His Royal Highness the Prince's anger.

Chu Yao's voice was soft, and if he didn't listen carefully, he couldn't hear it clearly: "There are some Taoism." This was a mockery of her, and then he was silent for a moment, and said again, "Untie her." ”

Mo Yun on the side immediately stepped forward to untie the rope for her. Shen Hanyue retreated desperately, and continued to speak loudly: "I want to change my clothes, eat something, and drink ginger soup." ”

"If you have to make an inch, you're not afraid that I'll kill you?" Fan Zhanhong stepped forward and pulled out Mo Yun's saber, which lay between Shen Hanyue's neck.

Shen Hanyue was so scared that she couldn't do it, but she didn't want to show her true feelings, so she took a breath, suppressed the dryness in her throat, and spoke again: "Afraid, why aren't you afraid?" If you want to harm Ah Yi, even if I confess honestly, it will be difficult to get out of here safely. If you are Ah Yi's relatives and friends, then you shouldn't do this to me! ”

Chu Yao set his eyes on the woman with a tough face, considered the meaning of her words, and seemed to have a great friendship with Ah Yi, so he glanced at Fan Zhanhong and slightly bowed his head.

Fan Zhanhong didn't want to obey his fate, but he couldn't disobey, and his gaze at Shen Hanyue became more and more cold: "Okay, give you clothes, give you food and drink, you'd better say it quickly." ”

Shen Hanyue still felt that it was not enough, and continued to put forward requirements: "I want the best clothes, soft, warm, and the same as Ah Yi." ”

"You ......"

"Food, I want fragrant, spicy, Ah Yi likes."

"Do you still dare to bargain?" Fan Zhanhong roared impatiently.

Chu Yao's face did not change, and the corners of his mouth curled up a little more: "Give it all to her, go and arrange it!" ”
