Just as Lu Zhaoling was about to interrogate these big men, the boy took advantage of the unpreparedness, quietly slipped out of the cave, and plunged into the woods and disappeared.

"Huh!" Lu Zhaoling also only caught a glimpse of him disappearing into the woods, "This kid, it's too dangerous to run around in the mountains by yourself." I just rolled down the hillside, and I still have the strength to run. ”

"Yes, hero! This little rabbit cub is particularly difficult to catch-" A big man was about to echo, but Lu Zhaoling glanced at him and immediately shut up.

"It's not the way to let that kid run around in the mountains alone." Lu Zhaoling thought for a while and looked at Yang Che, "Otherwise, you are watching them here, and I will look for them?" ”

Yang Che nodded.

"You're not allowed to hit anyone anymore." Lu Zhaoling still didn't feel at ease and asked.

Yang Che didn't speak, threw the two big men into the cave and shrunk up, and sat down at the door of the cave.

Only then did Lu Zhaoling enter the mountains and forests with confidence and look for the boy.

After all, he was still a child, and he ran in the woods for a while, and there were traces left by him everywhere. Lu Zhaoling didn't take much effort to find him not far away.

The boy was leaning on a tree trunk panting, when he suddenly saw Lu Zhaoling, turned around and ran.

"Still running! Can you outrun me? Lu Zhaoling caught up with him in two steps and grabbed him by the back collar.

The boy turned his head and bit Lu Zhaoling's hand.

"Hey!" Lu Zhaoling had no choice but to cut his hands behind and press them to the ground.

The boy fluttered on the ground for a while, unable to resist, and finally stood still on his stomach honestly, squinting at Lu Zhaoling.

"Obviously I saved you, why are you running and trying to bite me?" Lu Zhaoling felt angry and funny.

The boy didn't speak, his big eyes were dark, staring at Lu Zhaoling, full of distrust.

"It's too dangerous for you to run around in the mountains alone, tell me where your home is, and I'll send you back." Lu Zhaoling said in a good voice.

"Nope." The boy replied sullenly.

"Huh?"

"I don't have a home. My mother sold me. The boy's voice was still very young.

It's really a child who was sold...... But most people only sell girls, why was this boy sold?

"Who have you been sold to?" Lu Zhaoling asked.

The boy kept his mouth shut and refused to answer.

It seems that he doesn't want to go back. I don't know what the master's family has done to him to make him resist like this.

"I'll let you go now, you can't run anymore, you can't run away, you know?" Lu Zhaoling looked at the boy, and the other party nodded obediently.

Lu Zhaoling let go of his hand, and the boy got up from the ground, patted the ashes on his body, and stood honestly in place.

"What's your name?" Lu Zhaoling asked.

"Ann Nian." The boy replied.

"The name is quite nice, and it has a meaningful rhyme." Lu Zhaoling praised.

"My dad got up. My mother said that my father was a poor scholar who died early and did not leave any savings. An Nian said.

"An Nian, you tell me who your master's family is, I'll go talk to him, buy you back, and then give you back your freedom, what do you think?" Lu Zhaoling discussed with him.

An Nianshang looked at Lu Zhaoling a few times with some confusion: "Why?" ”

"Because I'm a chivalrous man, I like to do good deeds." Lu Zhaoling said.

"......" An Nian looked a little speechless.

"Anyway, the opportunity is given to you, if you want to be free, tell me the truth, if you don't want to, I'll hand you back to the three people who captured you." Lu Zhaoling hugged his arms and said.

An Nian bit his lip and hesitantly glanced back and forth at Lu Zhaoling. Lu Zhaoling was not in a hurry and waited patiently.

Finally, he made up his mind and said to Lu Zhaoling: "It's Ye Ergongzi." ”

"Second son Ye?"

Jinzhou City is not big, and the only big family surnamed Ye in the city is Ye Xiu's family.

Although I don't know what kind of person this second son Ye is, it is related to the Ye family, and things will be much easier to do.

"Then I'll take you to Ye Mansion right now and buy you." Lu Zhaoling said.

"Not in Yefu." An Nian shook his head, "Second Prince Ye has his own house. ”

Not in Yefu...... You can also go and talk to him first.

"Then you take me there." Lu Zhaoling said.

"I don't want to go." An Nian decisively refused.

"Is Second Prince Ye treating you badly?" Lu Zhaoling asked suspiciously.

An Nian lowered his head, biting his lip and refusing to speak.

When I asked him anything, he wouldn't say anything, alas, it was really difficult.

In the end, Lu Zhaoling asked the location of Ye Ergongzi's mansion, returned to the cave with An Nian, handed him over to Yang Che, and loosened the ties of the two big men.

"Are you the thugs hired by Ye Ergongzi?" Lu Zhaoling asked.

The two nodded.

"Okay, I'm going to buy this boy, you can take me to see Ye Ergongzi."

"This ......" the two looked at each other, and one of them said stubbornly, "Then this kid must be taken with him......

"When I buy him, he'll be mine, why bring it with you?" Lu Zhaoling said confidently.

But Ye Er Gongzi may not be willing to sell it......

The two big men couldn't say anything about the bitterness in their hearts.

"Don't worry, Second Prince Ye will definitely agree." Lu Zhaoling seemed to see what the two were worried about, and patted his chest and said.

I wouldn't want to rob someone else's house......

Both of them were in a cold sweat.

In the end, they didn't dare to resist Lu Zhaoling, so they had to carry their unconscious companions and go down the mountain with Lu Zhaoling.

After entering the city, Lu Zhaoling told Yang Che to take An Nian back to the Shen Mansion first and wait for her news. Then he went to the house of the second son of Ye with the two big men.

The second son of Ye's mansion is very magnificent, just looking at the gate, it looks even more expensive than the old mansion of Yefu.

A few people knocked on the door, and a big man went to mutter to the little guy who opened the door, and the little guy went back to the courtyard to report, and came back after a short time and invited Lu Zhaoling into the courtyard.

The corridor in the courtyard is very deep, twists and turns, and it is indeed a good house.

When he came to the main hall, Ye Ergongzi was already waiting in the house.

He glanced at Lu Zhaoling lazily, got up without a smile and said, "Girl, please sit down and use tea." ”

At first glance, it is an arrogant and domineering school.

Lu Zhaoling didn't want to entangle with him more, so he got straight to the point and said: "I want to buy that kid in An Nian, how much silver, you say." ”

Thinking that Fang Cai Xiaowu had already informed him, he was not too surprised, but just pulled the corners of his mouth and said: "An Nian, that child, although he has some skin, it is not easy to discipline, but with a smooth hand, I don't really want to sell it." ”

I don't want to sell it, but I want to raise the price.

Lu Zhaoling knew it in his heart and sat opposite Ye Ergongzi.

"If you really don't want to sell it, I won't force it. The child is in my house now, and I can help you get it back. However, since you like that kid so much, and I finally found him from the mountains and brought him back, then you see this hard-earned money, I won't agree to give it less. Lu Zhaoling said with a grin.

Ye Ergongzi's eyelids jumped, obviously he didn't expect this woman to want to blackmail him.
