Chapter 120: The Sheep Enters the Tiger's Mouth
All the yamen of Chu State attached great importance to this incident, and it was completely banned in the capital. After Nan Chenqing got the news, he arrested two people in the mansion who had the characteristics of smoking poppies, and all of them were sent to Nan Huaifeng.
Nan Huaifeng was not polite, and directly handed over the person to Contempt, and was sure to ask about the source of the poppy.
It's just that for some reason, the news spread very quickly, and many people in the capital knew that there were poppy smokers in Nanchenqing's mansion that day, and they went to Dali Temple to make trouble, so that Nanchenqing would give an explanation.
Nan Chenqing was so anxious by the people that he was troubled, and even many people went to the gate of the Seven Kings Mansion to make trouble, and the people of the Yamen arrested a few people who took the lead in making trouble, which angered the people even more and made more and more trouble.
There is only one Nanxun left in Dali Temple, and when Jiang Ziyu and Nan Huaifeng were both in the poppy case, Nanxun had an accident.
Qu Yan and Ning Xin were kidnapped, and even Nan Xun disappeared without a trace. King Kang's family was in a hurry, and the whole family went to find someone, but there was no news.
"Nan Xun should have been robbed by Nan Zhenyi." Jiang Ziyu frowned as if he was thinking of a countermeasure, Nan Huaifeng squinted his eyes and there was a little unkindness in his eyes: "The people who are guarding outside the Dali Temple come to report, and the person who robbed Qu Yan is a master of the rivers and lakes." ”
Jiang Ziyu rubbed his eyebrows slightly, how could Qu Yan have a relationship with the people of the rivers and lakes?
"Princess, the person who investigated Qu Yan has returned. They said that after the Qu family left Beijing, they met robbers on the way. Qu Yan's parents are dead, and she is the only one left. The proprietress of the dance shop said that when Qu Yan went to her to be a dancer, she was not down-and-out, and Qu Yan would be taken away by a fierce person every once in a while. ”
Hanlou has just come back from outside, and this news has just been found, in fact, there are not many useful clues.
"Lord and Princess, someone sent a letter." Morning Star also came in from outside, and the letter was delivered by a little beggar, and the masked man gave him a few taels of silver to drag him to deliver it.
Nan Huaifeng took the letter and looked gloomy, and was about to destroy the letter, Jiang Ziyu felt that it was not quite right and hurriedly snatched the letter from him.
The content of the letter is to let Jiang Ziyu go to the city alone to attend the appointment, if she does not go or take someone to Nanxun, she will die.
"I'll go." Jiang Ziyu frowned and went to the closet to turn over light clothes, Nan Huaifeng stretched out his hand to stop her, and said, "I'll send someone to ......."
"No, this letter was either sent by Nan Zhenyi or Qu Yan, these two are not fools, and they will definitely take all possible measures to prevent me from bringing people over. If they really find out that I brought someone, Nan Xunyan has a life? ”
Even if Jiang Ziyu spares his life, he will not betray his friend's life to protect himself. Nan Zhenyi and Qu Yan are both desperate people, what do they dare not do? Not to mention killing Nan Xun, if they let them tie up other princes and ministers, they would still dare to kill.
"But you ...... now" Nan Huaifeng didn't say anything about her abilities considering the large number of people, Jiang Ziyu's movements on his hand paused, and then resumed as before: "We don't have a choice, the top priority is that you have to deal with the affairs in the capital." The poppy cut can't spread, I'll be back. ”
Jiang Ziyu went to the side hall to change her clothes, Nan Huaifeng knew that he couldn't persuade him, so he gave her some things to defend herself and told her to be careful.
"Gotta come back." Nan Huaifeng stretched out his hand and hugged Jiang Ziyu, he swore that he would never put her in danger again, but he didn't do it. He owes Ziyu too much, and he can't pay it off in his life.
Jiang Ziyu raised his hand to hug him back, and chuckled: "I will, I am reluctant to give up such a good day." Even if I climb, I'll climb back, don't worry. ”
Nan Huaifeng panicked in his heart, and when he saw Jiang Ziyu riding a horse and leaving without dust, his eyes became gloomy and fierce.
"Morning Star, lead the troops to surround the Rui Wangfu and the Wei State Mansion."
Jiang Ziyu went alone to the place mentioned in the letter outside the city, it was a dense forest, and the forest was the best place to set up organs, and it was not easy to find it hidden, so she was extra careful.
There was a square pavilion in the middle of the forest, and there was curling smoke in the depths, and Jiang Ziyu was suspicious but cautious to go there.
"You're here."
A familiar voice sounded, and Nan Zhenyi walked out of the forest, still holding a cup of tea and two teacups in his hand.
"Sit."
Nan Zhenyi smiled and posed a gesture of please, and Jiang Ziyu raised his eyebrows slightly and sat cautiously in the pavilion.
"I knew you would come, I originally planned to kidnap Lu Yiting, but I didn't expect Mrs. Lu Hou to want him to die, so I had no choice but to tie him up." Nan Zhenyi always had a gentle smile on his face, as if he was very happy that Jiang Ziyu could come.
"You didn't do the poppy thing." Jiang Ziyu always kept his distance from him, but he didn't forget to ask about it.
Nan Zhenyi did not hide it and told her truthfully. In fact, he didn't get the poppy, he buried a secret stake on Nanchenqing's mansion at the beginning, which was the one who rushed into Yuna.
He didn't expect Yuna to be able to marry Nan Chenqing when she came back, and that secret stake was just to pass on some news about the Seven Kings' Mansion. Later, Nan Chenqing got married, Nan Zhenyi remembered him, and when he sent someone to find him, he found that this person was very wrong, and after careful investigation, he found out that it was because this person smoked A Furong.
"I didn't want to make such a big fuss, but you went to Dali Temple, I guess you should know something, so I had to surround Wei to save Zhao." Nan Zhenyi took a sip of tea, his goal was to rescue Qu Yan.
The people in Qu Yan's hands are not only the people who surrounded the Seven Kings Mansion that day, those are just small minions, and the real masters have not yet made a move. Qu Yan still left a hand when he went to the Seven Kings' Mansion with him, which Nan Zhenyi didn't know, so he could only choose to save Qu Yan.
Zhao Liang's line was broken by Ning Xin, and Nan Zhenyi could only let Ning Xin do it. Even if Ning Xin was unhappy, she couldn't help her. Yes, she still has a chance to live. If she doesn't do it, Nan Zhenyi will kill her on the spot.
So Ning Xin had no choice but to sell herself to help Nan Zhenyi.
"Even if you trap me, you'll still lose this battle." Jiang Ziyu narrowed his eyes, what Nan Zhenyi wanted was always the throne, even if he killed her, he would not be the emperor.
Nan Zhenyi hooked his lips and chuckled, stretched out his hand to pour Jiang Ziyu a cup of tea, and said slowly: "The third brother is very smart, Dali Temple is surrounded by his people, to be honest, I admire him a little." But compared to you, he is still too upright. To be too righteous is to be stupid, and the outcome of this battle is not yet known. ”
Jiang Ziyu felt that he had something to say, and stared at Nan Zhenyi as if he wanted to find an answer, Nan Zhenyi did not beat around the bush, and looked in the direction of the capital with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "You may not know that the first emperor, who is also my father, died of illness." As for how the illness came about, of course, someone deliberately murdered him, and this person is Nan Huaifeng. ”
Jiang Ziyu frowned slightly, as if she realized something, she got up and was about to go out, but Nan Zhenyi blocked her way: "I dare to tell you, it is enough to prove that I am not afraid of you escaping." Do you think you can still get out of this forest? ”
There was a slight sound in the forest, Jiang Ziyu heard the existence of many people around, she turned her eyes to look at Nan Zhenyi, capture the thief and capture the king first......
The dagger in her sleeve slid into her hand with Jiang Ziyu's skill, and she stabbed Nan Zhenyi without hesitation, Nan Zhenyi's martial arts skills were good, so she naturally could block this blow, and held Jiang Ziyu's wrist with her backhand, pulled her back, and brought her into her arms, and the dagger was also pressed by him to Jiang Ziyu's own neck.
"Your martial arts are really gone, Tang Lu's madman is really powerful, and the person the queen mother is looking for is still very reliable." When he was in the Seven Kings' Mansion, Nan Zhenyi had already realized that something was wrong.
If Jiang Ziyu's ability was still there, his third brother would not have sent someone to protect her. He could see it clearly that day, not only the shadow guard beside Jiang Ziyu was protecting her, but even his third brother's first reaction was to let her be careful.
Jiang Ziyu squinted her eyes slightly, and there was a mechanism in her other hand, but before she could move, Nan Zhenyi had already held her other hand: "I'll take this thing first, if you want Nan Xun to live, you still stay here honestly, don't think about running out." ”
"I've put up a trap in this forest, and there are several people guarding it, even if you become a bird, you won't be able to get out. When I get the throne, I will marry you in style, and then there will be half of you in the world. As for my third brother, you might as well forget about him. ”
Jiang Ziyu lowered his eyes and moved slightly, and suddenly chuckled: "It seems that King Rui likes me." She and Nan Zhenyi have met several times, he is obviously very high in martial arts but never does anything to her, she only thought that Nan Zhenyi was a bogeyman, but she didn't expect to really like her.
Nan Zhenyi removed the Hidden Arrow Mechanism from her arm, listening to her words and not denying it: "Naturally." When he first returned to Beijing, he never forgot the figure sitting on the wall under the moon.
Heroic and cold-faced, decisive in killing, and cold and noble in every gesture, at that moment the world was disgraced by her, and since then the seeds of marrying Jiang Ziyu have been planted in his heart, and he has taken root in contacting and meeting her again and again.
"You were so timid and cowardly in the past, and you were cute back then, but you weren't as mesmerizing as you are now." Nan Zhenyi's words made Jiang Ziyu stunned, he had seen the original body? It shouldn't be, I haven't seen Nan Zhenyi in the memory of the original body.
"Don't you think Li Luyao is sometimes very similar to you? I knew I should have taken you away when you asked me for help. ”
Nan Zhenyi's words made Jiang Ziyu unable to think about it, in fact, on the night he returned to Beijing to receive the wind banquet, he felt that Jiang Ziyu was wrong, so he deliberately approached her and tested her. She didn't recognize herself, and she became like someone else.
Jiang Ziyu didn't bother to answer her words, she was still carefully recalling everything that the original body had experienced, after all, the memory of the original body was like her memory, and she couldn't look it up casually, not to mention that it wasn't what she had experienced, and it was even more difficult for her to recall.
Nan Zhenyi was not in a hurry, raised his hand to knock her unconscious, and took her back to the house deep in the forest.
