Chapter 52: Beauty Pavilion
Lu Zhiyao's eyes flickered and looked at the man in front of him, and he smiled bitterly. She lowered her voice and asked, "With such a big guts, aren't you afraid that I will arrest you now?" ”
Lu Zhiyao never thought that Chu Ziqian, who they wanted to catch, would also sneak into the Prime Minister's Mansion in a disguised way. If he hadn't taken the initiative to stand up, who would have thought that he was right under his nose?
"You don't want to." Chu Ziqian raised his eyebrows and smiled, after seeing the mood in Lu Zhiyao's eyes change in an instant, he also became serious. "Don't want to save your little maid?"
Chu Ziqian talked about the moon, which made Lu Zhiyao's heart move. Scanning the surroundings with his residual light, Lu Zhiyao's expression was calm, and he said indifferently: "Follow me." ”
Lu Zhiyao returned to his room and called everyone out. Because it was broad daylight, no one thought that Chu Ziqian would appear, so Yudie and Lan Ruoyan left happily when they heard Lu Zhiyao say that the family she brought back was from Ye Lianrong's side and wanted to ask him a few questions.
In the empty room, Chu Ziqian's smile slowly turned ill-willed. Lu Zhiyao glanced at his evil smile and laughed coldly. "Tell me, you know what you're talking about. You took my maid? ”
"Miss, don't wronged a good person, besides, I also have a high vision, since I have fallen in love with you, how can I attack your little girl who hasn't grown." Chu Ziqian leaned back in the chair very casually, picked up the fruit on the table and took a bite, and then said to Lu Zhiyao: "If I help you find someone, what benefit will you give me?" ”
"What benefits do you want?"
"I want you."
Chu Ziqian's words were so straightforward that Lu Zhiyao wanted to beat him up. Looking at Chu Ziqian silently, the faint chill emanating from Lu Zhiyao's body had already clearly expressed her meaning.
Chu Ziqian saw that there was nothing good to be gained, so he wanted to get up and leave. But before he took two steps, he was stopped by Lu Zhiyao.
"What kind of place are you? Do you really think you can come and go if you want? ”
"Or else?" Chu Ziqian turned his head with a bright smile, and he didn't think that those Lan Ruoyan people outside could really do anything to him.
"Do you want to take a gamble and see if I can catch you?" Lu Zhiyao also stood up with a smile, lowered his head and rolled up his sleeves elegantly, and said something that surprised Chu Ziqian.
Although this Lu Zhiyao is a little different compared to other young ladies, at least she didn't shout like killing a pig after seeing herself and knowing her identity, but Chu Ziqian didn't think that she had the strength to say such a thing.
Chu Ziqian turned around and looked at Lu Yuan, and asked, "Lan Ruoyan can't catch me, can you?" ”
"Try it. If I lose, this body will be yours for one night, but you have to tell me where my maid is now, how about it? ”
"No regrets?"
"No regrets." Lu Zhiyao's confident tone made Chu Ziqian silent for a long time. The two stood opposite each other, looking at each other wordlessly.
Chu Ziqian nodded slowly, making Lu Zhiyao's faint eyes shine again, and strode in front of Chu Ziqian, Lu Zhiyao looked up at him slightly and asked, "Where is the moon?" ”
Chu Ziqian sighed lightly, recalled the scene he saw that day, and told Lu Zhiyao what had happened in a slow voice.
After Chu Ziqian met Lu Zhiyao that night, he was busy picking the "flowers" that he had long taken a fancy to. got rid of Lan Ruoyan and lived happily all night, and the next day the sky was slightly bright, and Chu Ziqian thought of the idea of sneaking into the Prime Minister's Mansion. But after passing a small alley behind the Prime Minister's Mansion, Chu Ziqian happened to see the picture of Wanyue being tied up.
"Three men, moving quickly, I can see that they are prepared."
"Do you know where they took people?" Lu Zhiyao asked anxiously.
"I wasn't interested in that girl, so I didn't go along. But ......" Chu Ziqian's words changed, so that Lu Zhiyao, who just wanted to scold him for talking nonsense, had to swallow the words back. "They all have the same tattoos, I can see it very clearly."
Three people, the same kind of tattoo, are good partners with the same smell? Or are there organized gangs?
"What else do you know?" Lu Zhiyao thought that since Chu Ziqian dared to come to behave well, he should also know some other insider information.
"What's there to ...... about"
Before Chu Ziqian's words were finished, his right hand was forcefully pushed back by Lu Zhiyao. Lu Zhiyao's speed was very fast, and his strength was also very strong, which made Chu Ziqian, who was unprepared, immediately shut up in pain and stopped talking nonsense.
Chu Ziqian secretly sighed in surprise in his heart, and his mouth had a lot of knowledge and endless words.
"It's a beauty pavilion, and it's full of traffickers who specialize in selling women."
Beauty Pavilion? Lu Zhiyao wrote down the name in his heart, and after confirming with Chu Ziqian again, he said in a low voice: "The day I brought back the moon is the day to compete with you, get out." ”
Chu Ziqian walked out of Lu Zhiyao's room, interested in Lu Zhiyao. Lu Zhiyao watched him walk away slowly and found Lan Ruoyan over.
"Does the Blue Maiden know the Beauty Pavilion?" Lu Zhiyao asked straight to the point.
Lan Ruoya was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Zhilu Dao, but why are you asking this?" None of those people are easy to mess with. ”
"They captured the moon." Lu Zhiyao could tell from Lan Ruoya's expression that this beauty pavilion was not easy to deal with. And Lu Zhiyao also has some understanding of those so-called human traffickers.
The country of Charais was established not long after the overthrow of the previous dynasty, and the rampant traffickers made many government officials and yamen helpless against them, and many corrupt officials chose to cooperate with these traffickers, buying beauties at low prices from their hands for their own pleasure, and then using their rights to give them invisible protection.
Lu Zhiyao sat on the chair and pressed his temples with a headache. Lan Ruoya looked at Lu Zhiyao's sad appearance, and she was also a little embarrassed, because the beauty pavilion was really not easy to move. Not for anything else, just for the real pavilion master behind the scenes, Lan Ruoya would not help Lu Zhiyao to meddle in this matter again.
"I'm afraid I won't be able to help you with this." Lan Ruoyan spoke softly, with a hint of guilt between her words.
"It's okay, I'll figure it out myself." Lu Zhiyao smiled understandingly, "Catching Chu Ziqian's thief is the biggest help for me." ”
Lan Ruoya hesitantly walked out of Lu Zhiyao's room, Lu Zhiyao thought deeply, and felt that there was still something that he had neglected. Since the Beauty Pavilion is such a powerful organization, why did it choose the moon? Someone must be behind it, so who could this person be?
Lan Ruoya made her attitude clear, so Lu Zhiyao could only rely on herself. brought Yu Die to tell her that she had found out the whereabouts of Xuan Yue, and Yu Die's happy expression made Lu Zhiyao's heart tingle slightly.
It's been two days, and even if you rescue the moon, you will have to wait a few more days. For so many days, I don't know if Lu Dao Wanyue will let those beasts spoil it, Lu Zhiyao remembered the memories of being thrown into prison and thrown into those rogues, and she had to worry about Wanyue. Wanyue's temperament is strong, if he also committed suicide like he did at the time, then ......
"Yudie, now only the two of us can rescue Xuanyue, I can't point to the people from the yamen outside, I have something to say to you in front, you have to listen well."
Lu Zhiyao's words made Yu Die's nerves tense, she nodded nervously, looked at Lu Zhiyao intently, and listened to her words.
"The one who took away Wanyue was an organization called 'Beauty Pavilion', and Lan Ruoyan didn't dare to meddle in this matter, so you should be able to imagine how troublesome this matter is. I promise you that I will do my best to bring her back, but I don't guarantee that she will be intact when she returns. I'm not afraid of anything else now, I'm just afraid that Wanyue has been sold by them and ruined. In case Wanyue would rather die than give in and choose to commit suicide, then ......"
"Miss, don't say it!" Yudie was scared when she heard it, and tears were already rolling in her eyes. "Wanyue, she will be fine, she will definitely not!"
"I hope so." Lu Zhiyao looked at Yudie with a heavy heart, although he promised that she would definitely save Xuanyue, but he should do it like this, Lu Zhiyao still has no bottom. "Don't tell anyone else about this, including your mother, understand? You just tell her that we have found the whereabouts of Xuanyue, and we have already sent someone to pick it up, and if Aunt Chang's body stays up like this for a few more days, I'm afraid she won't be able to stand it. ”
"Okay, I'll tell my mother now." Yudie nodded with tears in her eyes, and then walked out.
Lu Zhiyao punched the table after Yudie left. Anyway, we have to find out where that beauty pavilion is. Lan Ruoyan didn't dare to come forward to help, but it should be okay to provide herself with some news, right?
After Lan Ruoyan knew that the matter involved the Beauty Pavilion, she immediately went back to tell Lin Yinan. After Lin Yinan listened to Lan Ruoya's words, his first reaction was that Lu Zhiyao was going to make a big fuss this time.
Lin Yinan smiled slightly, glanced at Lan Ruoyan's uneasy expression, and ordered: "Take care of her, and come back and tell me if you have any moves." ”
"Master, are you going to meddle in this matter?"
Lan Ruoyan asked worriedly, Lin Yinan had never asked about foreign affairs before, so the enemy was only the prince. But if things continue like this, Lan Ruoya is very worried that Lin Yinan will take care of more and more things far away from the land, and there will be more and more enemies at that time.
"I have my own plans, go ahead." Lin Yinan didn't answer Lan Ruoya's question head-on, her calm gaze made waves after Lan Ruoyan left, Lin Yinan suddenly wanted to know Lu Dao, if Lu Zhiyao knew who she was messing with this time, how would she clean up this mess?
