Chapter 556: Hostage

Dugu Chiyan, who had just not spoken, suddenly opened his mouth and whispered to Ji Ruhuan, "It's here." ”

The expression on Ji Ruhuan's face instantly became very bright, and she responded, "You are really confident, since you are so confident, let's take a look at each other's strength first?"

And at this moment, the people around the first queen also whispered to her, "Niangniang, many people are approaching us. ”

Empress Xian's eyes narrowed slightly, and she scolded coldly, "You are cheating and deliberately delaying time." ”

Ji Ruhuan smiled and replied, "It's a pity, you always found out too late." ”

Empress Xian sneered and responded, "If you want to catch this palace, then you have to see if you are ruthless enough." ”

After saying that, the first queen said to the carriage behind her, "Lift the curtain and let Princess Xian take a look." ”

After speaking, the carriage curtain behind the queen was completely opened, and the subordinate at the door also let go of his position, revealing a child who was tied and gagged, and saw Ji Ruhuan's look of anticipation.

Ji Ruhuan looked at the child in the carriage and said in disbelief, "Xiao Zhao." ”

Xiao Zhao struggled and kept whimpering at Ji Ruhuan, but he couldn't make a sound.

Looking at the first queen again, Ji Ruhuan's face was gloomy, and she said coldly, "Let Xiao Zhao go." ”

Empress Xian replied, "Yes, but we have to ensure our safety first, and when we leave safely, we will release him." ”

Ji Ruhuan looked at Xiao Zhao in the carriage, gritted his teeth and responded, "Okay." ”

Empress Xian continued with a smug face, "We still have a little girl in our hands, what's it called?" Oh, it's called Ji Xiaofei, it's quite Peugeot, the next time you change people, if there is such a situation, then the palace can only send the little girl to Hualou." ”

After speaking, he didn't wait for Ji Ruhuan to answer, but only said to the guards in the carriage, "Release people in half an hour." ”

After finishing speaking, he walked to the two carriages behind, Ji Ruhuan hurriedly said in a cold voice, "If you dare to do anything to Xiao Fei, I will kill the Seventh Prince." ”

Empress Xian responded, "Don't worry, this palace can keep your word better than you." ”

After speaking, he got into the carriage, Ji Ruhuan and there were so many of them, they could only watch them leave.

And in the carriage left, a guard put a knife on Xiao Zhao's neck, it was obvious that as long as Ji Ruhuan and they moved, the knife was likely to wipe out Xiao Zhao's neck at any time, so Ji Ruhuan didn't dare to risk Xiao Zhao's life.

There were so many of them, they could only guard the carriage depressedly, and half an hour later, the guard actually bled directly beside Xiao Zhao, and Xiao Zhao was frightened and kept whimpering.

Ji Ruhuan hurriedly stepped forward and hugged Xiao Zhao into his arms and got out of the carriage, while Chunxiao went up to check the guard, and then said, "Dead, it should be a dead man." ”

After untying Xiao Zhao, Xiao Zhao hugged Ji Ruhuan's neck tightly and didn't let go, buried his head in Ji Ruhuan's shoulder and whimpered.

The half-grown child was not small, Dugu Chiyan on the side frowned slightly, and directly reached out to pull Xiao Zhao off Ji Ruhuan's body, and reprimanded coldly, "Manly man, what does it look like to cry and chirp?"

Xiao Zhao was frightened by Dugu Chiyan, stopped crying, but the tears still couldn't help but fall down, and couldn't help but choke out from time to time.

Ji Ruhuan stretched out her hand to wipe the tears on Xiao Zhao's face, and glared at the Nine Emperor Uncle by the way, "What about the child, what are you scaring him for?"

As long as he doesn't continue to pick up Ji Ruhuan, Dugu Chiyan obediently listens to the training, and he doesn't speak anymore when he stands aside.

The group returned to the Spring City Inn, Xiao Zhao finally stabilized his mood, and Ji Ruhuan asked Xiao Zhao about the situation, "Why did you fall into the hands of these people?

Xiao Zhao nodded and responded, "Sister Xiaofei and I were arrested by them outside Yingtian Academy, someone pretended to be my father to come to see us, saying that they were waiting for us to go over for dinner in a restaurant outside, we didn't suspect it, so we went straight over, and if we didn't want to, it fell directly into the hands of these people." ”

Because he had been crying for too long, Xiao Zhao choked up before he continued, "After that, we were knocked unconscious and taken away and locked up." ”

Ji Ruhuan frowned and asked, "Do you remember where you were held?"

Xiao Zhao shook his head, "When we were brought over, we were all knocked unconscious, and since then, we have been locked in a room, and there are guards guarding outside, who will deliver us meals on time, no matter how we make a fuss, no one will pay attention to us." ”

Dugu Chiyan on the side asked, "Did I knock you out when I brought you over this morning?"

Xiao Zhao shook his head, "No, I just covered my head with a black cloth, and I couldn't see anything." ”

Dugu Chiyan continued to ask, "How long have you walked, is the road flat or bumpy?"

Xiao Zhao responded, "I rode a horse first, and then I changed to a carriage, and I rode for almost half an hour, and the carriage went for more than an hour, and it was a little bumpy." ”

"Did you hear any sounds along the way?"

Xiao Zhao thought about it carefully before he responded, "It's quiet, there was no sound along the way." ”

Dugu Chiyan nodded, stopped asking, and said to Ji Ruhuan on the side, "It should be in a relatively remote place." ”

Thinking that Xiao Fei was still in their hands, Ji Ruhuan frowned and said, "Why don't you send someone to search the surrounding mountains?"

Of course, Dugu Chiyan also knew that this little girl from the side branch of the Ji family was very liked by Ji Ruhuan, considering the safety of the little girl, he still opened his mouth and responded, "No, if they know about our movements, it is very likely to be unfavorable to Xiaofei." ”

Ji Ruhuan frowned and responded, "What should I do then?"

Dugu Chiyan responded, "Change people, go and take the Seventh Prince." ”

Ji Ruhuan gritted her teeth, "Is there no other way?"

She didn't want to give that child to the first queen.

Dugu Chi Yan said, "Let's save the person first, since Zhou Zhang can spend so much money for the Seventh Prince, he must still attach great importance to that child, and he won't do anything to him, and when the rescued person comes back, let's find a way to snatch the person back." ”

Ji Ruhuan was still a little unbearable when she thought of that little pitiful, but there was no other way but to nod.

After deciding, Dugu Chiyan arranged it.

When Ji Ruhuan planned to send someone to Kyoto to pick up people, he sent Xiao Zhao back by the way, but Xiao Zhao was frightened and insisted on going back with Ji Ruhuan.

Ji Ruhuan had no choice but to give up, temporarily let Xiao Zhao stay at the Spring City Inn, and only sent someone back to Kyoto to deliver the news to the family, and by the way, he informed his father that everyone in the Ji family must be careful, and it is best to arrange more guards, so that the Ji family must not be taken away again and become a bargaining chip for those people to bargain with them.
