Chapter 109: The Longevity Lock
Ye Tianhuai was shocked.
This is Gu Haiwang's longevity lock.
There is a tradition among the Dajing clan that when a boy is born in the family, he will put a longevity lock on the child to keep him safe. This kind of longevity lock is generally hung around the neck, worn from childhood to adulthood, even when sleeping and bathing, it can not be left from the body, let alone shown to others, and must be worn close to the body to work.
How could such a private thing fall into Wang Siyun's hands?
Unless he was indifferent in front of Wang Siyun.
The girl seemed to have a wound in her neck and could not turn her head. She lay on the bed, obliquely looking at the longevity lock in Ye Tianhuai's hand, with fear and hatred in her eyes.
"Miss Wang, can you speak?" Ye Qianhuai asked.
Wang Siyun tilted his head slightly and closed his eyes.
It seems that he can't speak.
"Then I'll come and ask you, and if yes, you'll blink, and if not, you'll blink twice." Ye Qianhuai's voice was gentle, and there was a warm light in his eyes.
Wang Siyun opened her eyes again, and she looked at Ye Tianhuai and blinked slowly to show that she understood.
Ye Tianhuai nodded and asked, "Did Gu Haiwang bully you?" β
Hatred flashed in Wang Siyun's eyes, and he closed his eyes.
Ye Tianhuai confirmed again: "Did he do the injuries on your body and face alone?" β
Wang Siyun blinked quickly again.
Ye Tianhuai handed the golden lock in his hand to Wang Siyun and asked, "Did you get this from him?" β
Wang Siyun blinked, then pointed to his chest with his finger, and reluctantly made a downward pulling motion, meaning to tear it off the other party's neck.
"Gu Haiwang, did you ever find out that you took his longevity lock? Has he ever looked back? β
Wang Siyun pondered for a moment and blinked weakly.
Ye Qianhuai looked down at the gold lock in his hand, this lock is a little soft in his hand, it is pure gold, the corners have been a little worn, but the lettering is clearly visible, brand new, it seems to have added something in addition to gold to ensure hardness.
Gu Haiwang's family has been an official for generations, and the long-life lock of the eldest son in the family will not be reduced, this lock is exquisitely made, and it can be seen that it is from everyone's hands.
Ye Tianhuai weighed this longevity lock repeatedly in his hand, and calculated it in his heart.
Gu Haiwang's case is now being tried in Jingzhao Mansion, and judging from Li Wenqing's report, the trial of Yin Jiang Qiancheng in Jingzhao Mansion is fairly fair, and it stands to reason that this kind of conclusive evidence and witnesses should be directly reported to Jingzhao Mansion.
But Ye Tianhuai was inevitably worried.
There are only one hundred and ten people in Jingzhao Mansion, and the highest position in Jingzhao Mansion Yin is only from Sanpin. In terms of official status and the number of armed men, it is far from being the same as that of the Criminal Department.
Not to mention that the relationship between Jiang Qiancheng and the Gu family is still unclear, even if Jiang Qiancheng and the Gu family are not all the way, it is unknown whether his small Jingzhao Mansion can save Wang Siyun's life and this longevity lock under the nose of the Gu family.
"Tao Yuan, if Wang Siyun enters Jingzhao Mansion, can your people guarantee her safety?"
Tao Yuan pondered for a moment and replied: "The Jingzhao Mansion Prison has its own shift, and we are afraid that we will not be able to place people for a while." But if His Majesty gives an order to Jingzhao Mansion to let our people go in and take over, it should be able to guarantee Miss Wang's safety. β
In other words, if a person is sent to Jingzhao Mansion, the existence of the Eagle Guard must be exposed.
Ye Tianhuai frowned, a little hesitant.
She looked at the longevity lock in her hand, and felt as if she was holding a chess piece in her hand.
A chess piece that, if used well, can kill your opponent.
But if it is not used well, it will cause fire.
Ye Tianhuai thought in silence for a long time before asking, "You brought her out of Gu Haiwang's courtyard, does Gu Haiwang know?" β
"I don't know. No one in the courtyard has yet found Miss Wang missing. It is estimated that there will be a subordinate to deliver food at dusk, and then it will be found that the person is gone. Tao Yuan paused and said, "But even if it is discovered, the news should not reach Gu Haiwang's ears." β
Ye Qian pondered for a moment and raised an objection: "Although Gu Haiwang has been grounded, it is his own mansion after all, not a prison. There is no impermeable wall in the world, and there is always a way for this bit of news to leak into his ears. β
"Your Majesty, what do your subordinates meanβ" Tao Yuan paused for a moment and said, "The subordinates have left people in the other courtyard, and once someone finds out that Miss Wang is missing, we will immediately dispose of the person, replace it with a person, and then remove the person when necessary." Therefore, no one will find out about Miss Wang's situation for the time being. β
Ye Tianhuai was stunned, there is still this kind of operation?
When Wang Siyun heard this, he suddenly grabbed Ye Qianhuai.
Her eyes were full of panic, and she shook her head slightly as she endured the sharp pain in her neck.
Ye Tianhuai hurriedly reassured: "What's wrong?" Don't get excited, be careful of your injuries. β
Wang Siyun no longer shook his head, but still tightly pulled the corner of Ye Qianhuai's sleeve, looked at her quite anxiously, opened his mouth, but did not speak.
Ye Tianhuai thought about it for a moment and asked, "You don't want us to hurt the person who brought you food?" Do you know the man? β
Wang Siyun nodded first, then shook his head again.
Seeing that Ye Tianhuai didn't understand, the little girl was so anxious that she wanted to shake her head again.
Ye Qianhuai hurriedly pressed her shoulder and said slowly: "You don't know that subordinate, but you don't want us to hurt her." Is it? If yes, blink and don't nod! β
Wang Siyun immediately blinked.
Ye Tianhuai met her clear and anxious gaze, and suddenly felt a little funny.
"Why? Is she good to you? But she is Gu Haiwang's subordinate. β
Wang Siyun opened her mouth and didn't make a sound, she looked at Ye Qianhuai, her bloodshot eyes flashed with a faint but stubborn light.
It was like a tender white flower blooming in a sea of desperate blood.
Ye Tianhuai looked at her, and there was an indescribable feeling in his heart.
It's clear that I've become like this, but I still have the heart to worry about others.
She wanted to rebuke her for her innocence and ignorance, but for some reason, she couldn't open her mouth.
Finally, she sighed, pressed the girl's hand holding the corner of her sleeve with her backhand, patted it gently, and smiled comfortingly at her: "I promise you that I will never hurt her." Therefore, you must also promise me to live well and take care of your body. Only if you live, the bad guys can get the punishment they deserve. β
Wang Siyun looked at Ye Qianhuai for a long time, and blinked his eyes seriously.
It's like a convention.
Ye Tianhuai finally patted her hand twice, and then stood up.
She looked out the window, the sun was already setting in the west at this time, and there was still about an hour before Gu Haiwang sent food to Wang Siyun in the courtyard.
The smile in her eyes disappeared, and she picked up the longevity lock next to the bed and walked in front of Tao Yuan.
"Tao Yuan, evacuate the people who left you in the other courtyard."
"Your Majesty......" Tao Yuan was slightly stunned and said, "I'm just afraid that Gu Haiwang will soon know the news of Wang Siyun's disappearance." So we ...... You'll miss the opportunity. β
Ye Tianhuai's expression was indifferent and unmoved, she looked at Tao Yuan, her eyes were unfathomable: "I just want him to know that Wang Siyun has run away." He not only had to know that Wang Siyun had escaped, but also that Wang Siyun had been kidnapped. β
Tao Yuan couldn't help but be shocked: What does the emperor mean by this?
Ye Tianhuai's voice paused, but his eyes seemed to be nailed to Tao Yuan.
"But don't let him know who's been kidnapped. Do you know how to set up the scene? β
Tao Yuan nodded ignorantly.
"Then, there's one more thing you have to do yourself." Ye Qian looked thoughtfully at the longevity lock in his hand, and then raised his head.
"Tao Yuan, will you be disguised?"
