Daming: I have a showdown, my father-in-law is the emperor

Chapter 160 Using Body as Bait

It was only time for a cup of tea.

Butler Wang brought Qiao Zhidong and the ten squadron leaders over.

Chen Fan looked at the eleven burly men in front of him, and nodded silently.

Just looking at the physiques of these captains gave Chen Fan a solid feeling in his heart.

Full of security.

"Is there anything unusual these two days?"

Chen Fan looked directly at Qiao Zhidong and asked casually.

With a solemn expression, Qiao Zhidong said solemnly:
"Young Master, don't worry, there is a lowly position, and those Xiaoxiao will never dare to approach the National Teacher's Mansion."

Qiao Zhidong stepped up his efforts to arrange manpower to inspect the National Teacher's Mansion these days.

So far, no traitors have been found, and there is no sign of doing anything.

Chen Fan said calmly:
"There's news from Liu Er that the kidnappers are almost fully assembled, and they may find a chance to do it in the next few days."

Qiao Zhidong and others below listened quietly, all with angry expressions.

For those who dared to kidnap the national teacher, they wished they could kill the kidnapper with their own hands.

Seeing that everyone looked like they were fighting against each other, Chen Fan smiled, and was quite satisfied with everyone's reactions.

but.

Chen Fan went on to say:

"I don't know when those kidnappers will attack, and I can't stay at home all the time. I plan to go out for a few days to lure them out."

Otherwise, if Chen Fan stayed in the house, the kidnappers would have no chance to take action.

It's impossible not to go out for the rest of my life!
That's not realistic either.

Hearing this, Qiao Zhidong's expression changed, and he urged anxiously:

"Master, don't risk yourself!"

The other squadron leaders standing behind Qiao Zhidong also advised Chen Fan not to take risks.

"Yes! Young master, please think twice, if something happens to the young master, the humble staff will die."

Even Butler Wang, who was standing aside, was anxious to advise.

Chen Fan turned cold, pretending to be dissatisfied and reprimanded:

"If I don't go out, are you going to let me stay in the house forever? You can only be a thief for a thousand days, but you can't guard against a thief for a thousand days."

Seeing that everyone was about to object again, Chen Fan said firmly:

"Okay, you don't have to persuade me anymore, I've made up my mind."

Hey!
From the crowd, Chen Fan heard a faint sigh, but he didn't know who it was.

Seeing that everyone was worried and worried about his safety, Chen Fan was a little moved.

After all, everyone was also afraid of his danger.

Thinking of this, Chen Fan's expression softened slightly and comforted him:
"Everyone don't need to worry too much, don't you still have you? You let the people below cheer up, get ready, and be ready to attack at any time, and wipe out those kidnappers."

When Qiao Zhidong and others heard this, the worries on their faces slowly dissipated.

Immediately, a trace of determination appeared on the face. What everyone thought was to warn their subordinates when they went back, so that they could be ready at any time.

……

The next day, Chen Fan took Qiao Zhidong and the ten squadron leaders out for a stroll.

Unfortunately for Chen Fan, the road was calm and the kidnappers did not show up.

According to the news from Liu Er, the kidnappers were ready and would look for an opportunity to take action at any time.

As for when?
Liu Er didn't know.

Come to think of it, he was a helper, how could he know such a secret.

Chen Fan wandered around outside, but he didn't find the slightest sign of the kidnappers doing anything.

The kidnappers didn't show up until the sun went down.

In the end, Chen Fan reluctantly led the group back home.

Day three.

Chen Fan still took Qiao Zhidong and other people, and went out for a stroll around Chang'an Street in the capital.

The kidnappers still didn't show up.

On the fourth day, the same is true.

This had to make Chen Fan wonder, what went wrong?
He has been going out for several days in a row, and he doesn't bring many guards with him!
Just Captain Qiao Zhidong, plus ten squadron leaders.

Could it be that these eleven burly men frightened the kidnappers?
So that they dare not do it?

Not so much!

Chen Fan heard from Liu Er that the kidnappers gathered hundreds of people.

Still afraid of these eleven strong bodyguards?

"Where is the problem?"

Chen Fan was thinking to himself.

He has other things to do!

You can't go out and go shopping every day!
After much deliberation, Chen Fan guessed that it might be because he was shopping these few days and was too close to the National Teacher's Mansion, which made the kidnappers afraid to do anything.

"It seems that you can go to Dongcheng District tomorrow, and you should be able to lure the kidnappers out."

Dongcheng District is less than three kilometers away from the National Teacher's Mansion. This distance is neither close nor far, which is just right.

this day.

After Chen Fan had breakfast, he changed into a rich man's attire, and took Qiao Zhidong and 11 people out to Dongcheng District.

Not long after Chen Fan left the house, a young man responsible for keeping tabs on the Imperial Master's Mansion quietly followed him.

This ordinary-looking young man was the one the kidnappers arranged to follow.

The young man had been following Chen Fan for several days, but he was not discovered because he was cautious.

But what depressed the young man was that Chen Fan had been shopping not far from the Imperial Master's Mansion these days.

This made him unable to find a chance to tip the news.

He was worried that it was too close to the National Teacher's Mansion. If they made a move, a large number of guards would run out from the National Teacher's Mansion at any time to stop them.

therefore.

Young people are always waiting for an opportunity.

And today, the opportunity came.

The young man followed and found that Chen Fan had wandered to Dongcheng District with eleven guards.

This Dongcheng District is a bit far away from the Imperial Prefecture.

If they had acted quickly, by the time the guards from the National Teacher's Mansion arrived, they would have kidnapped the National Teacher away.

Thinking of this, the young man who had been trailing behind Chen Fan was full of excitement.

The opportunity finally came.

The young man hurriedly retreated quietly, and went to report to the boss.

Chen Fan and a group of people walked around the street, looking around.

On both sides of the road, there are some small merchants selling some groceries at the stalls.

There are everything for sale, some selling needlework, some selling snacks, and some selling some handicrafts.

It was very interesting for Chen Fan to watch. Although he didn't like these ancient gadgets, he was still very interested.

However, the flow of people on this street is not too much, and there are few passers-by.

"My lord, take a look at this hairpin! It's the most suitable gift for your sweetheart."

When Chen Fan and his group passed by a jewelry stall, a boss dressed in jewels stopped Chen Fan.

Looking at the outfits of the group of people in front of him, the jewelry owner knew that the young man in charge came from a wealthy family, and he must have a lot of silver on him.

Chen Fan was also idle, and the group stopped in front of the jewelry stall.

"Let me see!"

Chen Fan took the hairpin and looked at it carefully. Compared to the Ming Dynasty, the craftsmanship was pretty good.

Chen Fan was about to discuss with the jewelry boss.

Sudden.

A group of men in black rushed out from several intersections in the street and ran towards Chen Fan.

Looking at the situation, Chen Fan knew in his heart that the kidnappers had finally made their move.
