Chapter 185: Blackmail

The saint looked down at the prince who was kneeling on the ground, but he never spokeβ€”

Until the eunuch beside the prince stepped forward and helped the prince up, the prince raised his eyes. The Holy One had already sat down and walked away.

The prince's face turned cold, and he said coldly: "I just escorted him to Dali Temple...... My father would rather believe him than me......"

The eunuch beside the prince looked at the prince's face and said in a low voice: "Why doesn't the prince ask the saint to punish King Jing heavily?" After all, trespassing into the East Palace, at worst, is a great crime of rebellion! ”

The prince sneered, "I wanted to take advantage of my father's anger and plead, but do you see that my father is angry?" ”

Liang Yan woke up with dizziness and nausea.

It took a long time for the eyes to adjust to the light hitting the face.

The light was leaking in through a window. On the window was a small square wooden lattice, and the paper glued to the square lattice was tattered. Looking at the current light, it must be almost noon, right?

Liang Yan raised her hand and rubbed her neck, the guard was ruthless, and her neck still hurt as if it was about to break.

She looked around. This is a firewood room, and it should be a firewood room that is not used often, and there is a damp and rotten smell everywhere, and there are layers of cobwebs in the corners.

Liang Yan moved her fingers and found that although her body was sore, she had finally recovered some strength.

She straightened up her messy shirt and touched the silver needle hidden in her chest. The silver needle is gone.

She stood up with the firewood stack behind her, came to the door, pulled the door, and the door locked outside, "Is there anyone?" ”

It was quiet outside, and I didn't even hear the birdsong.

Is this going to keep her here and die without paying attention?

Where did the guard take her after jumping into another carriage last night? How far did you run? Out of Chang'an? She vaguely remembered entering a large courtyard......

"Hey! Is there anyone out there?! Liang Yan shouted loudly a few more times.

"It's coming, it's coming!" There was really a mother-in-law who responded, "Girl, wake up?" ”

Liang Yan looked out through the crack in the door. But I could only see a flash of light, and I couldn't see anything clearly, "Auntie, where is this?" ”

When the mother-in-law heard this, she didn't answer and asked, "The girl is hungry?" There are two pieces of Hu Biscuit here, and the girl will eat one if she doesn't dislike it? ”

The mother-in-law pushed the door panel, and through the gap between the door panel and the threshold, a cold and hard cake was stuffed.

Liang Yan hesitated slightly. I still reached out and took it, I don't know how long it was closed, some foods are better than no food!

She nibbled on a biscuit, and her tooth was almost knocked out.

"What is this place? Is it Chang'an? Liang Yan asked again.

The woman smiled when she heard this, and dragged her slow steps away.

Liang Yan slowly chewed the hard stone-hard cake, carefully recalling the details she could recall yesterday.

The people around the prince said that King Jing called...... It shows that Li Xuanyi already knew that she was robbed and almost found her! I guess I'm still looking for her right now, right?

Although looking for someone in Chang'an is undoubtedly looking for a needle in a haystack, there is still some slim hope.

The prince said that he wanted the Shangguan family to have general control over water transportation. Take her captive, then Shangguan Xi should get the news soon.

Thirteen will send this news back to Shangguan's house, right? Will Shangguan Ruixing care about her life or death?

The prince used her to threaten Shangguan Ruixing, it was really naΓ―ve! How could Shangguan Ruixing compromise because of her?

Why does the prince want half of the Shangguan family's control of water transportation?

Isn't the Shangguan family planning to join the Shishi now? At that time, the imperial court and the Shangguan family negotiated and controlled the water transportation. It should be within reach, right? What is the prince doing in such a hurry?

Liang Yan chewed on the cold and hard cake. It hurt to chew both cheeks.

She suddenly understood!

The crown prince did not want to take half of the control of water transportation for the imperial court, but for himself!

Therefore, before the Shangguan family and the imperial court negotiated, let Shangguan Ruixing compromise.

Liang Yan thought of this, and a chill suddenly appeared on her body.

The crown prince is only a prince now, so he wants to dominate power and wealth...... The prince let her know this, will he still let her live?

Liang Yan took another bite of Hu Cake, she had to find a way to get out!

Lin Sanniang saw that Liang Yan had not returned overnight, and she had already panicked.

Early in the morning, she wanted to go to the inn where Shangguan Xi stayed on the thirteenth day to find someone, but before she went out, she met a ugly.

Ah Chou wore a veil, and the birthmark exposed at the corner of his eye was amazingly red.

"Auntie, don't be too anxious, we are also looking for Dr. Liang. You wait for news at home, don't wander around. Ugly said.

When Lin Sanniang heard this, she almost didn't stand firm, "Sister-in-law? She's gone? ”

Ah Chou nodded, "Don't panic, auntie, you wait at home, in case the aunt comes back, it's not good that there is no one at home." ”

She ...... She'll be fine...... She ......" Lin Sanniang asked nervously.

Ugly shook his head, "No, she'll be fine." ”

After she finished speaking, she didn't have time to appease Lin Sanniang, so she turned around and left.

Liang Yan disappeared, and the prince was also imprisoned.

Fortunately, the Holy Lord has sent people to check the gates of the city and search the whole city, and she will definitely be found.

The court officials, how can they say that they are gone?

Shangguan Xi got the news from Ah Chou, and was so anxious that he almost smashed the inn's voucher, "What did I say, I should be allowed to live with my sister!" How about now? Sister is gone! Sister is gone! ”

Thirteen's face sank ugly.

After Ah Chou left, a person suddenly came out of the room.

Shangguan Xi had a cold face, pouting and looking at the people who walked out of the room, "If it weren't for Ayefei asking me to come back and live!" Sister won't lose it! ”

The person in the middle is Shangguan Ruixing, he has quietly come to the capital and has not alarmed others.

"Your three-legged cat's kung fu, even with her, is just one more person being caught." Shangguan Ruixing said coldly.

"So what now?" Shangguan Xi stepped forward and grabbed Shangguan Ruixing's arm, "Aye, what do you say now?" Where is Sister? Sister, she's going to be fine, right? Who took Sister A? ”

Shangguan Ruixing glanced at Thirteen and asked in a deep voice: "You have been with Grandma for so long, have you sorted out her personal relationships?" ”

"The subordinates are clear." Thirteen knelt down and sat down, trying his best to maintain a calm complexion, "The people who have a bad relationship with the eldest lady, and have the ability to avoid the people sent by King Jing to protect, kidnap the eldest lady, and hide people in Chang'an, Princess Changle and Liang Juma are the most suspicious. ”

Shangguan Ruixing thought about it when he heard this, and was about to speak, but he heard the servant outside the door say, "Second Miss, someone is asking to see you." ”

Shangguan Xi was stunned for a moment, "Ask to see me?" ”

Thirteen got up and stood behind Shangguan Xi, and Shangguan Ruixing returned to the inner room and sat down.

Shangguan Xi asked people to invite people who would look for her in the future.

The one who came was a young man.

Shangguan Xi frowned and thought about it, he didn't know anyone, right?

The visitor's face was warm, his smile was warm, and he was dressed in bamboo blue, which made him feel like a kind of dust.

"I've seen the little lady, the little student Gu Jialiulang, Gu Yan is also." When the visitor saw Shangguan Xi looking at him with a blank face, he introduced himself.

Shangguan Xi nodded, "You know me, I won't introduce you, what are you looking for me?" If I'm not mistaken, I don't recognize you, do I? ”

Gu Yan smiled, took an object from his arms and handed it over.

Shangguan Xi frowned and took it, and when he looked at it carefully, he was immediately shocked, and glared at Gu Yan, "This is Sister A's hairpin!" ”

She slapped a few words, got up immediately, and reached out to grab Gu Yan's collar, "What about my sister?" Where did you hide my sister?! ”

Thirteen was cold-conditioned and looked at Gu Yan coldly, as if he didn't want to walk out of this door if he didn't explain honestly. Shape the music on the carry.

Gu Yan chuckled and pulled away Shangguan Xi's hand holding his collar, "Shangguan little lady, don't worry, I sent this thing here, and I reported to my home, so I came with sincerity!" ”

Shangguan Xi's immature face was full of anger, "What bullshit sincerity!" Where did you hide my sister? Close the door! Put thirteen! If you don't tell me honestly, you will come in vertically and go out horizontally today! ”

Gu Yan was slightly stunned, looked at Shangguan Xi with a smile and said, "The little lady is so domineering!" ”

He looked at Thirteen who was staring at him again, coughed lightly, and said, "If you want Miss Liang to return safely as soon as possible, you might as well calm down and listen to what I have to say?" is so impulsive, I'm afraid that Miss Liang is not good! Although a certain person is not talented, he is only a scholar in a small area, but if a certain person dies here, your Shangguan family will not be able to escape the involvement. Miss Liang, I'm afraid you'll never see you again! ”

When Shangguan Xi heard this, he knelt down angrily, pointed at Gu Yan and said, "If you have something to say, I want to hear it, what do you say!" ”

Gu Yan knelt and sat upright, with a faint smile on his face, and said slowly: "Take the canal to facilitate north-south transportation and grain transportation." The Shangguan family has dominated water transportation for so many years, and now that they have suddenly entered Beijing, it is time to unload some heavy burdens if they want to come to water transportation, right? ”

Shangguan Xi frowned and looked at Gu Yan when he heard this, "What do you mean?" ”

Gu Yan smiled, "The Gu family is not talented, but they are willing to help the Shangguan family share some heavy responsibilities." ”

When Shangguan Xi heard this, he opened his mouth in surprise and glared at Gu Yan, as if he didn't expect someone to be so shameless and elegant.

"If the Shangguan family is willing to give up half of the right to water transportation, the person you are worried about will be able to appear in front of you safely!" Gu Yan said lightly.

Shangguan Xi slapped a few words, "You are blackmailing!" Aren't you afraid that the Shangguan family will tell the saint? ”

Gu Yan smiled, "Let's talk behind closed doors, what we say, when we go out, I naturally won't admit it again." Of course, the Shangguan family can tell the saint what I said, but how can they make the saint believe it? It was the saint who believed it, and really punished the Gu family because of this speculation...... The Gu family has not fallen, but you will never have to think about seeing that person again! ”

Shangguan Xi muttered "Sister", and glared angrily, "You dare to threaten us with Sister!" Count yourself guts! Since you are here alone, you don't have to leave today, just stay in the inn! When my sister comes back, you will leave! ”

Hearing this, Thirteen stepped forward coldly, and pulled out the sword in his hand with his backhand and put it on Gu Yan's neck-
