The Marquis told them that if they were kidnapped outside, they could tell others some true or false things as long as they could survive.

However, after saving your life and coming back, you must report it immediately.

The masters will seek ways to deal with the situation based on what they say, and find the kidnappers and the masterminds behind them.

Thinking of this, Manager Zhou no longer felt any psychological burden. "Lai Fu... I saw Lai Fu eight days ago, and I haven't seen Lai Fu in the Marquis' Mansion since then."

When Xu Jia heard this, his face darkened. "Is Lai Fu in Changning Marquis' Mansion right now?"

Manager Zhou thought for a moment, then said, "Lai Fu is a very attentive person, especially concerned about everything about the prince, including his diet."

"If Lai Fu was in the mansion, he would definitely go to the kitchen to give instructions. But since getting married, he has been staying in the mansion and has hardly ever gone out."

"In the past, whenever the prince was in the mansion, Lai Fu and I would see him almost every three or two days. Because we often had to report our work to Butler Zhou."

"It's been such a long time since we last met, Lai Fu shouldn't be in the mansion! As for where he went, I really don't know! I've said everything I need to say, my eyes were blindfolded, and I didn't see what you looked like."

"Don't kill me. If you kill me, my second uncle is the housekeeper of Zhou and is trusted by Marquis Changning. He will not let it go."

Xu Jia was slightly stunned when he heard this, "Lai Fu is getting married, is his wife in the mansion?"

Butler Zhou replied: "In the mansion, Lai Fu's wife is the head maidservant beside the Crown Prince's wife, and serves beside the Crown Prince's wife."

"Don't even think about kidnapping Xiulan. If the Crown Prince's wife doesn't go out, then Miss Xiulan won't go out either. If the Crown Prince's wife goes out, Miss Xiulan will follow her. You can't kidnap her because there are many experts around the Crown Prince's wife."

Hearing this, Xu Jia gritted his teeth secretly and asked again: "What unusual movements have occurred in Changning Marquis' Mansion recently?"

Manager Zhou replied: "I am just doing some shopping and I don't know the secrets of the mansion. But I think the mansion is peaceful, so it shouldn't be a big deal."

Seeing that he couldn't get anything out of him, Xu Jia chopped Manager Zhou on the head with a knife.

Manager Zhou's fat body fell to the ground, and Xu Jia took the opportunity to have someone loosen Manager Zhou's hands and feet and take the thing out of his mouth.

After doing all this, Xu Jia took his men away.

Manager Zhou was right. Xu Jia did not dare to kill anyone from the Marquis of Changning's Mansion.

The longer he stayed in Kangguo, the more he had to study one person, that is, Zhou Ze, the Minister of Rites and Marquis of Changning, who was in charge of foreign affairs.

His every move involves the surrounding foreign countries.

However, people from Beirong are paying attention to it, and people from other foreign countries are also paying attention to it.

If something happens to the purchasing manager of the Changning Marquis' Mansion, the probability of foreigners taking action is higher.

With Marquis Changning's methods, even if he didn't find any evidence, he would speculate that he would deal with the person he suspected regardless of whether there was evidence or not.

Therefore, Xu Jia did not kill Manager Zhou.

As long as no one dies, Marquis Changning's approach will be much gentler.

A few hours later, as the sun set, Manager Zhou gradually woke up and felt his neck was a little sore, but he had no injuries on his body.

He didn't dare to stay any longer, so he stood up and was about to leave.

Just after he took a few steps out, Manager Zhou hurried back, taking the sack that contained him, the rope that tied him up, and the cloth that gagged him.

After running out of the dilapidated courtyard, I saw the words "Yang Mansion" written on the door. It is a famous haunted house in the capital.

Manager Zhou felt a chill down his spine, shrank his head, quickly found an alley, and ran to the main street.

Manager Zhou didn't dare to take a car, for fear of being arrested again, so he walked among the crowds.

After returning to the mansion in a panic, Changning Marquis Zhou Ze was not in the mansion. Manager Zhou went straight to find the prince Zhou Jin and said, "Prince, I was kidnapped today... Please forgive me."

After hearing what Manager Zhou said, Zhou Jin knew that Beirong had already known about Lai Fu's situation and had started to take action.

"Manager Zhou, I'm glad you're okay. What you said about Lai Fu's matter has nothing to do with the overall situation, and it didn't really betray the Marquis' Mansion. Let's just let this go. You were frightened today, go back and have a good rest."

When Manager Zhou heard Zhou Jin's words, he kowtowed to Zhou Jin again, "Thank you, Your Highness, for trusting me!"

"You are a lifelong servant of our Zhou family. If things go wrong at Changning Marquis Mansion, it will not be good for you either." Zhou Jin said in a deep voice, "When you encounter danger in the future, be smart. The most important thing is to stay alive. If it is a secret of the Zhou family, don't say it if you can. If you can say less, say less. If you come back alive, report it as soon as possible. Don't hide anything."

Manager Zhou quickly agreed, "I obey your orders. In fact, I also think so. I will never harm the Changning Marquis's Mansion. I have also brought back the ropes and gags, as well as the sacks. If we report to the police and find a dog with a sharp nose, we should be able to catch the mastermind."

Zhou Jin chuckled when he heard this. "No one is dead. It doesn't matter whether we find the mastermind or not. Anyway, we know that it was done by Beirong people. If we don't deal with them now, it means the time has not come yet. When the time comes, I will avenge you for being kidnapped today."

When Manager Zhou heard this, he felt relieved and said, "Your Highness is right."

Not long after Manager Zhou left, Gu Xiling came with Xiulan and brought lotus seed soup to Zhou Jin.

Zhou Jin has been suffering from internal heat recently and needs to drink some lotus seed soup to reduce the heat.

Zhou Jin told the story of Steward Zhou being kidnapped today, and his eyes fell on Xiulan, "Xiulan, don't leave Changning Marquis Mansion in the future. If they can kidnap Steward Zhou, they can also kidnap you."

Xiulan's face was pale and her voice was trembling. "Thank you, my lord. I'll remember that. My lord, how is Brother Laifu now?"

Gu Xiling then persuaded: "Prince, Xiulan is Lai Fu's closest person, there are some things that cannot be hidden from Xiulan."

Zhou Jin nodded. "Laifu is now receiving special training from Manager Xu. He needs to understand the customs and habits of Beirong and learn the language there. Fortunately, Laifu was already five years old when he left Beirong."

"Although I have forgotten a lot of the Northern Rong language, I am learning it very quickly now. Once I have learned it, I can go to the Northern Rong. Then I will cooperate with the imperial army to defeat the Northern Rong Khan, avenge my hatred, and eliminate dissidents. Only in this way can I win a chance of survival."

Xiulan was nervous, her eyes reddened, "Prince, can Brother Laifu... can he come back alive?"

Zhou Jin did not lie to Xiulan. "If Lai Fu goes to Beirong, he may die. But if he stays in Kangguo, living in a corner and does not take action, he will definitely die. The Khan of Beirong killed my father, brothers and nephews, so he will naturally try every means to kill Lai Fu."

"For example, today, Manager Zhou was kidnapped as soon as he went out. Do you think they dare not kidnap Lai Fu? No, if they dare to kidnap, they dare to kill Lai Fu. So Lai Fu must go to Beirong, take the initiative, and survive from the dead."

Xiulan agreed, "Thank you, Your Majesty. I understand."

Gu Xiling explained, and a plan came to mind, "Let Nanny Yuan accompany you tonight, and don't let your mind wander. With the Marquis's planning, and the support of Jin Linwei and His Majesty, Lai Fu will definitely succeed."

At this moment, Gu Xiling's eyes turned slightly, and a good idea suddenly came to her mind.
