After listening to Yuan Jiaojiao's words, Ji Yanning had no reason to scold her even if she was speechless.

Ji Yanning sighed lightly: "It seems that Yan Zheng has indeed put Xu'er under house arrest in the courtyard." ”

"Not necessarily. Yuan Jiaojiao said seriously, "I think Yan Xu may not be in his yard." ”

Ji Yanning looked at her puzzled.

Yuan Jiaojiao explained: "When I went to investigate just now, I found that although they have many guards and seem to be well-defended, if you look closely, anyone with a discerning eye can find that there is a loophole, and it is easy to climb over and jump onto the roof where there is a low wall. ”

Ji Yanning heard the meaning of her words: "Yan Zheng deliberately set up a trap to lure us into the game?"

Yuan Jiaojiao shrugged: "I guess, but based on the experience gained from the past few years, I can guess that if I really enter the courtyard, I am afraid that I will be ambushed by them." ”

Ji Yanning frowned: "But if Xu'er is not in the yard, where will he be sent?"

She now regrets a little bit about letting Ji Jiu withdraw the eyeliner in her hand, at least one or two are left, maybe she can know Xu'er's current situation.

Rong Che said: "Don't worry, this matter has to be investigated slowly." The words are in the light and we are in the dark, even if he is calculating, it is impossible for him to be so unscrupulous. ”

Yuan Jiaojiao sighed: "I didn't expect Xiao Xu'er to be so pitiful. ”

Ji Yanning was still very worried about Yan Xu, but after being persuaded by Rong Che, he had already tried very hard to calm down that self.

The treasury of Zhongdebo Mansion was on fire, and a lot of valuable things were lost, and a large part of the gold, silver and jewelry in the house that were not afraid of being burned were stolen, and the rest were secretly picked up by the subordinates, but since there was a theft in Zhongdebo Mansion, Yan Zheng stored most of the property in the mansion in the trading house, although these losses are heart-wrenching, but they cannot break the current Bofu.

Xiao Shaobei sent people to guard the Zhongdebo Mansion for two days, and finally there was movement.

The housekeeper in the Yan Mansion sent a batch of things out of the house.

There were several large chests in the batch, and thirty or forty guards went out of the city gates.

Such a box can fit an adult.

Immediately, they were targeted by the guards, and sent people back to report the news, and some people followed the team out.

They had been following the carriage of Chung De Bo out of the city, slowly and leisurely towards the front, and in the afternoon they came to the narrow official road, beside which the woods and shrubs were lined up, and it was a windward slope, and this one went up, and they could feel a wanton wind slapping on their faces.

Just as they were approaching the top of the slope, several masked men in black suddenly rushed out in front of them.

The guards of the Yan Mansion drew their swords and stepped forward to protect the carriage.

"Who are you?"

The butler shouted angrily, narrowing his eyes slightly and looking at the man in black in front of him.

Sure enough, as the old man expected, someone would intercept him.

The man in black didn't speak, but everyone took out a packet of powder from their arms and threw it at the Yanjia people on the downhill windward side.

The people of the Yan family exclaimed in surprise, and they wanted to cover their mouths and noses, but unfortunately the wind kept blowing the medicinal powder into their faces, and their heads seemed to gradually become dizzy, and they just wanted to hold their swords and kill the few people in black, but they had no strength and fell to the ground one after another.

The men in black stepped forward, walked to the carriage, split the locks with their swords, and opened the boxes one by one, only to see that they were filled with stones.

Several black-clothed people looked at each other, took the lead with a wave of their hands, and said decisively: "Go!"

Their interception outside the city did not stop the people they wanted, and when they went to chase the carriage outside the city, the back door of the Zhongdebo Mansion secretly opened a crack, and several subordinates dragged an unconscious "little guy" into the carriage, and the driver knew at a glance that it was a practitioner.

The carriage slowly headed towards the west of the city, turning directly into the alley.

It's just that it didn't take long for someone to quietly follow.

The whole Chung Tak Boh was quiet.

It was like an empty house, and even if an occasional servant passed by in the courtyard, it seemed as if he was just passing by in a hurry, and he didn't stay too long.

Yan Zheng walked into the study and asked the two guards to stand guard at the door.

I found a vase mechanism on the bookshelf, and with a slight twist, the entire bookshelf moved slowly, exposing a secret door behind the bookshelf.

He and his cronies went inside.

Gradually, they walked down the dark passage to a dark room, and it was Yan Xu who was locked up in the dark room.

The dungeon is very dark, with only two small ventilation windows on the side, which allow weak sunlight to shine in during the day.

He sat in the corner of his cell, heard the movement, and looked up at the signs.

"Why didn't you kill me?" Yan Xu asked, "Why did you spare my life?"

Since Yan Zheng is so disliked and even disgusted with him, why has he allowed himself to live for so many years?

He couldn't understand why he hated him to this point if he really just loved his mother, he was also his mother's child!

However, he was completely disappointed in the words, he just couldn't figure it out, and he just wanted to know the answer, because he was unwilling.

Yan Zheng looked at Yan Xu in front of him, this son who had been raised for twenty years, had mixed feelings.

His cronies placed the food box in their hands on the ground outside the cell.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "No matter what, I have raised you for twenty years and given you twenty years of life, which can be regarded as the end of benevolence and righteousness." ”

Yan Xu sneered: "It's a pity that I don't want it." It's a disgusting thing for someone like you to be a father. ”

Yan Zheng's face changed slightly, but he didn't get angry, he knew the unwillingness and anger in Yan Xu's heart.

He said, "You can only blame your mother." ”

Yan Xu's face turned cold: "She has been dead for so many years, and you are still so obsessed, I'm afraid that my mother doesn't look down on you at all, how can a person like you deserve the love of others!"

Yan Zheng's face darkened, and he kicked down the food box that his cronies had placed on the ground just now.

His eyes seemed to be about to erupt into flames, and he glared at Yan Xu fiercely, he had been deceived by him for thirteen years, and he really thought he was a fool, but he didn't expect that he was also a person who was good at punishing his heart, just like his mother.

Yan Xu watched his movements, and the corners of his lips for some reason evoked a sarcastic smile: "It turns out that I was really right, and I was annoyed and angry." ”

"Do you know why King Xuan approached you?"

Yan Xu was silent.

He doesn't know, he doesn't know anything.

Even if he hadn't gone crazy in the past thirteen years, he wouldn't have heard anything about his mother, and naturally he wouldn't know that there were other people in this world who would care about him.

So when Ji Yanning was so desperate to protect himself, he was confused.

Ji Yanning would feel distressed when he saw him being bullied, and wanted to give him all the best things, and even didn't want to let him be hurt a little, how could there be such a thing in this world?

Yan Zheng saw his appearance, and his thin lips moved lightly: "I don't know that I was being used, do you really think that others will care about you stupidly?"

Yan Xu raised his eyes to meet his gaze, and said with a smile: "What about use, even so, I am willing to be used by others." ”

Compared with indifference and indifference, hypocrisy has become a luxury, he has been in Yanfu for so many years, and the people in Yanfu are not even willing to pretend, and they can't wait to vent all their malice on him, compared to honey arsenic, he is as willing as a glutton.

When the first trick was arranged, someone had already noticed that someone was secretly following.

So those people must know Yanxu's true identity.

"Uh-"

There seemed to be a slight movement outside, and Yan Zheng frowned slightly.

The cronies beside him hurriedly walked out, and as soon as he reached the door of the study, he suddenly heard a sound piercing the air in his ears whistling towards him, and before he could react, a sharp arrow had pierced his body.

Several masked men with swords, bows and arrows jumped from within the outer walls of the courtyard and quickly approached the study.

It's just that they just walked in, and the guards outside the courtyard seemed to hear the wind and rushed in this direction.

All of a sudden, the two sides fought, and some people took the opportunity to rush into the secret room.

Yan Zheng looked at the masked people in front of him, but he didn't expect that not only were they not attracted by their two tricks, but they directly attacked the Zhongdebo Mansion, which was really bold!

The masked man slashed directly at Yan Zheng!

Yan Zheng hurriedly dodged, and then fought with the masked man.

The masked man who rushed over from behind saw that Yan Xu was locked up in the cell, and without saying a word, he raised his knife and slashed in the direction of the lock.

With a "clang", the lock fell to the ground, and the part that had been embedded in the wood was directly cut off.

The door was opened, and Yan Xu escaped.

He glanced back at Yan Zheng, full of anger, and walked out of the study.

Yan Zheng also planned to chase after him and stop Yan Xu, but unfortunately the martial arts of the person who fought with him were on par with him, this person still had a sword in his hand, he couldn't take advantage of it, and could only be suppressed by him.

Yan Xu walked out of the study, but instead of following those people directly, he walked towards his own courtyard.

Ninja was still in his yard.

"Childe. A masked man stopped him, "It's Miss Ji who asked us to come to you, you hurry up and follow us!"

As they spoke, another man came with a sword.

The masked man hurriedly turned around and slashed at the guard, and as they watched Yan Xu head towards their own courtyard, they could only grit their teeth and follow.

Yan Xu ran very fast, and it didn't take long to run back to his yard, and when he saw a few guards at the door, he didn't hesitate, and directly stepped forward to hit the guards, and then dodged the sword in his hand and fought with them.

The masked man from behind followed him, and he rushed headlong into the courtyard.
