After returning from rebirth, the eldest sister of Hou family destroyed her household registration b

Xiao Rongxuan raised his eyebrows and looked at Xiao Jinzhi, looking at the arrow on his neck out of the corner of his eye without any trace of panic.

"Brother Imperial, I understand your concerns, but it's just that the incident happened suddenly, and I'm confused as to who did it. Why don't you let me investigate carefully when I go back? Once I find Miss Chu's whereabouts, I'll report it immediately How about sending someone to inform the emperor?"

Xiao Rongxuan's tone was calm. On this street, in front of so many people, he would naturally not admit that he sent people to arrest Chu Huanyan.

And he was sure that as long as Chu Huanyan was in his hands, Xiao Jinzhi would never dare to kill him.

Xiao Jinzhi clutched the broken arrow tightly, his joints turned white and the veins on the back of his hand were prominent.

Looking at Xiao Rongxuan, he finally restrained his anger and moved the broken arrow away bit by bit.

"You should know very well that Yan Yan is now your life-saving talisman, so..."

Xiao Rongxuan lowered his voice and said: "Brother, don't worry, as long as you cooperate well, my brother will naturally not do anything to her. She will be safe and sound in the Penal Department Prison these days."

In the past few days, he had not thought about using torture on Chu Huanyan. However, he had to admit that he had some concerns.

After all, judging from how much Xiao Jinzhi cared about Chu Huanyan, there was no telling what he would do if he knew she had been tortured.

But if he had known that Xiao Jinzhi could make his father change his mind so quickly and hand him over to Dali Temple, he should have gone out of his way to entertain Chu Huanyan.

A fierce look flashed across Xiao Rongxuan's eyes. Although it was extremely fast, Xiao Jinzhi still caught it.

"What do you want?" Xiao Jinzhi looked at Xiao Rongxuan.

"At six o'clock tomorrow, in the deserted mountains on the outskirts of the city, if my brother wants Miss Chu to be well, remember to go alone." After leaving these words, Xiao Rongxuan raised his voice again, ordered the guards to search for the missing criminal, and left the street.

An hour later, Ning'an Hou Mansion.

Qin Li walked in with an ugly expression and shook his head at Xiao Jinzhi, "Your Highness, please forgive me, our people still haven't found Miss Chu's whereabouts."

"Then what should we do?" Xian Yue turned pale with anxiety, "Will the Third Prince be harmful to the young lady?"

Although the young lady was imprisoned in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment before, it was open to the public, but now the young lady has fallen into the hands of the third prince, and the relationship has already been established before. What if the third prince takes the opportunity to take revenge on the young lady!

"Since Xiao Rongxuan has asked Gu to go to the barren mountains outside the city, he should not do anything to Yan Yan before that." Xiao Jinzhi looked solemn. Fortunately, the person Xiao Jinzhi wanted to deal with more than Yan Yan was himself.

"Your Highness, when the third prince invites you to go, he must have set up an ambush, and my subordinates are worried..."

Qin Li looked at His Highness and did not finish his words. He understood that as long as Miss Chu was in the hands of the Third Prince, His Highness would definitely go there no matter what the ambush was.

But it was precisely because of this that he was even more worried. The Third Prince knew that Miss Chu was His Highness's weakness, and now that he had grasped it, he would definitely make a big fuss.

If His Highness really goes there tomorrow, I don’t know what he will encounter.

"No matter what Xiao Rongxuan prepares, I must go."

Being able to achieve this posture today shows that Xiao Rongxuan is completely determined. Now he must seize the time to rescue Yan Yan to prevent anything from happening.

……

The sky was dark and the night passed quickly.

When Chu Huanyan opened her eyes, she felt a tingling sensation in her neck and her head felt dizzy.

She looked around and found that she was in a secret room with dim light around her.

With a slight noise, a candle was lit, illuminating the figure standing not far away.

"Liu Qianran?" Chu Huanyan's tone was weak, her hands and feet were sore and weak, she frowned and tried to distinguish the person in front of her.

Liu Qianran walked up to Chu Huanyan and said, "Miss Chu."

"As expected, it's you." Chu Huanyan smiled, "That's right. If Xiao Rongxuan wants to find help at this time, you are indeed the most suitable candidate."

After all, it is the Prime Minister's Mansion. It is not difficult to cultivate some unknown secret forces. In this way, even if they are traced, the Prime Minister's Mansion and Xiao Rongxuan will not be implicated.

More importantly, since Liu Qianran informed Xiao Rongxuan of Yun Chen's identity, it meant that he had already made his choice. Now is a good time to show your loyalty.

"I'm sorry." Liu Qianran looked at Chu Huanyan quietly.

Before Chu Huanyan woke up, he had been standing in this secret room for a long time, and he had thought about many things to say in his mind, but when the words came to his mouth, he found that he seemed to have nothing to say at all.

We have reached such a situation that some words are meaningless.

At the end of a thousand words, it seems that there is only one sentence of sorry left that can be said.

"No need." Chu Huanyan shook her head and leaned against the wall, "Your choice has been clear from beginning to end, so I am not surprised to see you here now. As for the words I'm sorry, Mr. Liu has already said it more than once. .Since we are already enemies, why should we be so pretentious?"

Liu Qianran took a slow breath. When he heard the word enemy, he thought he would feel uncomfortable, but unexpectedly, his heart was very calm, as if he had been completely numb.

"What are you going to do?" Chu Huanyan paused and then asked, "Treat Xiao Jinzhi by setting up a trap with me?"

"Yes." Liu Qianran nodded.

"What is he going to do?" Chu Huanyan's tone contained a hint of nervousness.

Liu Qianran glanced at Chu Huanyan again and slowly looked away, "I don't know, but... I'll find out today."

"Today?" Chu Huanyan was stunned for a moment, then realized, "Have I been unconscious for a long time?"

"a whole night."

"Then where is this place?"

"Inside a secret room in a private courtyard of the Liu family." Liu Qianran thought for a moment and added, "This place is very secret. No matter how many people His Royal Highness sends, they will never be able to discover this place for a while."

Chu Huanyan nodded and chuckled: "If it was the third prince who said this, I would still be a little skeptical. But since Mr. Liu said so, I think it is indeed a secret to come here."

Liu Qianran's eyes dimmed, and he said "praise" on his lips, but finally swallowed it without saying anything.

After all, they are enemies.

Walking to the table nearby, Liu Qianran poured a cup of tea by the light of the candle and handed it to Chu Huanyan.

"Drink some water, we're about to set off."

Chu Huanyan tried to move her right hand, but found that her wrist was still weak and sore that she couldn't lift it at all.

Liu Qianran handed the water glass to Chu Huanyan's lips, but the latter turned his head to avoid it.

"No need." Chu Huanyan refused.

Just as Liu Qianran was about to speak, there was a sound of bells outside the secret room, and his hand holding the tea cup paused.

Taking a deep breath, Liu Qianran lowered his eyes and said, "It's time for us to set off."
