adults don't take the bait

Xu Shiyan returned to the capital smoothly. In order to prevent the prince and princess from worrying, Xu Shiyan said that the injury on his leg was caused by an accidental fall.

Xu Shiyan asked Xuanyang to go to Han Shangzhi, because his legs and feet are very inconvenient now, so he could only ask Xuanyang to send a message saying that the things have been obtained.

After Xuanyang got his life, he went to Han Shangzhi, and brought back a piece of news to Xu Shiyan——Sun Ran disappeared.

As the owner of Langhuan Yayuan, she disappeared for no reason. Xu Shiyan guessed who did it without even thinking about it. It's just that Sun Ran's martial arts skills could be easily captured by Fan Jian. Besides, didn't Han Shangzhi order someone to protect her?

No wonder Fan Jian didn't continue to attack on the road, it turned out that he already had a bargaining chip.Fan Jian thought that Sun Ran was Xu Yan, and the reason why Xu Shiyan knew about the Xu family was that Xu Yan told her, so his purpose of arresting Xu Yan couldn't be more obvious.

Seeing Xu Shiyan frowning again, Zhao Xin guessed that she was in trouble. When she came back from talking with the prince and concubine in the front hall, she happened to meet Xuan Yang who came out of the room. It was likely that something went wrong with Han Shangzhi.

Now is an extraordinary time, and we must be extra careful with every step we take.

"Shiyan, why are you so worried." Zhao Xin handed Xu Shiyan a bowl of white fungus and lotus seed soup.

Xu Shiyan took a few sips from the bowl, looked up at Zhao Xin, "Xin'er, things are getting more and more complicated." He put the bowl on the bed, and he really didn't have much appetite now.

"Can you tell me?" Zhao Xin asked.

Xu Shiyan just looked at her and said nothing, and then sighed, "I didn't want you to worry about me, but I'm afraid it's impossible." Zhao Xin already knew what happened before.

"You know, you always keep it from me, which only makes me more worried."

Xu Shiyan nodded, "Just now Xuanyang told me that Sun Ran is missing."

Zhao Xin was also surprised when she heard it, "Do you suspect that Fan Jian did it?"

"It's not suspicion, it must be him." Xu Shiyan couldn't think of any reason, but he could explain Sun Ran's sudden disappearance. Although he didn't see Han Shangzhi and didn't understand the situation at that time, Xu Shiyan was still sure that it was Fan Jian.

"He already knew that the account book was in my hands. The reason why he didn't snatch it on our way back to Beijing was because he thought of other ways. He took Sun Ran and threatened us."

Zhao Xin also felt that Xu Shiyan's words were not unreasonable, but now the enemy is in the dark.

"He now thinks that Sun Ran is Xu Yan. Before we hand over the account books, I think Sun Ran should be safe. But there is one thing I don't quite understand. Sun Ran should be cautious. How could she fall into Fan Jian so easily? In your hand, didn't you also say that Han Shangzhi sent someone to protect her again?"

"I'm also curious about this point, but you have to meet Han Shangzhi to know all of this." Xu Shiyan said.

"If you invite Han Shangzhi to come over tomorrow and ask, everything will be clear," Zhao Xin suggested.

"Xin'er is right, my legs are really not suitable for going out now."

On the second day, Han Shangzhi came to the palace, as Xu Shiyan expected, Han Shangzhi's complexion was not very good, there were dark circles under his eyes, maybe he hadn't rested for two days.

When he saw Xu Shiyan, he was ashamed, and he had failed Xu Shiyan's trust.

"Brother Han, there is no need to blame yourself too much. Fan Jian is treacherous and cunning. You and I underestimated him. You can't blame him for this matter."

Han Shangzhi shook his head helplessly, "It's all my negligence. I never thought that Fan Jian would use Fan Yiyao to set Sun Ran up."

"Fan Yiyao?" Xu Shiyan was puzzled.

"That's right, it's Fan Yiyao. The waiter told me that Sun Ran went out with Fan Yiyao and never came back. Fan Yiyao is Fan Jian's youngest daughter and a frequent visitor to Langhuan Yayuan. Sun Ran and I have known her since the morning." Originally, I wanted to use her to inquire about Fan Jian's residence, but I didn't want to give it up." Han Shangzhi gritted his teeth angrily.

"But Fan Yiyao seems to like Sun Ran and trusts her."

"I didn't expect that Fan Jian would even use his own daughter. Perhaps Fan Jian used Fan Yiyao to come to Langhuan Yayuan from the very beginning. He must also know that we want to learn something from his daughter, so he tricked Sun Ran out and tricked him. It is abominable to have secretly eliminated the people I sent outside Langhuan Yayuan."

"Now he must want us to hand over the account books in exchange for Sun Ran, what an old fox."

"Shiyan, is the account book in your hands?" Han Shangzhi asked.

"I've already put it in a safe place, you don't need to worry. It's just that brother Han thinks what should we do next, hand over the account book to the emperor or..."

"If the account book is handed over to the emperor, even if Fan Jian is convicted, I think Sun Ran will be in danger, but if it is handed over to Fan Jian, I think Sun Ran will not be safe. Maybe he will be punished by Fan Jian in the end." Silence. After all, in Fan Jian's eyes, she is the only descendant of the Xu family, and she is also the one who knows the truth of this matter. He will not let anyone who threatens his interests exist." Han Shangzhi said.

"Then Brother Han, do you want to hand it over to the emperor?" Xu Shiyan's eyes were sharp, and Han Shangzhi wanted to put Sun Ran's life at risk.

"The account book must be handed over to the emperor, and I will save Sun Ran." In the end, Han Shangzhi made a decision that he could not be led by the nose by Fan Jian. If he lost this opportunity, the emperor would be unhappy, not to mention that Fan Jian would embarrass them in the future. So Fan Jian had to die and Sun Ran had to save himself.

Seeing Han Shangzhi's resolute look, the corners of Xu Shiyan's mouth rose slightly, "I'm relieved to have Brother Han's words."

Han Shangzhi looked at Xu Shiyan suspiciously, "Does Shiyan mean that you don't plan to participate?"

"No, I mean Sun Ran." Xu Shiyan naturally knew Han Shangzhi's friendship with Sun Ran.

"Hey, let's talk about this matter after Sun Ran is rescued." But Han Shangzhi turned red, anyway, you are also a big man, and you are shy.

"Is Shiyan's leg okay?"

"It's just a few flesh injuries and nothing serious." Xu Shiyan said with a smile.

Han Shangzhi pointed to the wound on Xu Shiyan's left cheek, "Fortunately, the wound is not deep, otherwise the princess will be angry."

Xu Shiyan smiled, "Indeed."

"Are you talking about me?" Zhao Xin was at the door early in the morning, just listening to the two of them discussing some things and she couldn't go in and disturb her.

Han Shangzhi got up and made a song for Zhao Xin. Zhao Xin stroked her hands and said with a faint smile, "Master Han, you don't need to be too polite."

Han Shangzhi sat back to his previous position, but with a faint smile on his face.

This was the first time he saw Zhao Xin's appearance. Zhao Xin's beauty was indeed higher than that of Sun Ran, and she and Xu Shiyan could be called a pair of lovers.

The world would never have imagined that such a married couple are both women.

The three talked in the room for a while, and Han Shangzhi was about to get up and leave. There were many things to deal with, and now Sun Ran's affairs should be arranged by Han Shangzhi due to Xu Shiyan's inconvenience.

As soon as Han Shangzhi left Xu Shiyan, he began to frown again, "Are you so worried about Sun Ran, why don't you go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to rescue her now." Zhao Xin said it calmly, but there was always jealousy. taste.

Xu Shiyan smiled shyly, "Good Xiner, I'm just worried that Fan Jian will have some conspiracy again, and I'm always uneasy."

Zhao Xin sat beside her, "Don't worry, you need to heal your injury first, and Han Shangzhi will arrange it."

"I know."

"By the way, what about Xin'er?" I haven't seen this little guy for a day, and yesterday he said he would be with Xu Shiyan, but today he's gone.

"Father and concubine took them out, saying that they have something to enter the palace. Xi'er and the princess have already returned to Beijing." Zhao Xin and Xu Shiyan said.

"Yes, we have been out for more than a month."

Xu Shiyan saw that Zhao Xin was struggling to talk to him while leaning sideways, thinking that neither of them had a good sleep last night, so he moved a place inside, "Come up and rest too, you didn't sleep much yesterday."

Zhao Xin also agreed, took off her coat and went to bed.

Xu Shiyan put his left arm around Zhao Xin's shoulder and let her lean on him, and the two of them closed their eyes and rested.No one came back to disturb them at this hour, so they had to catch up on sleep.

In the dungeon of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Sun Ran just smiled helplessly at the table of good food in front of him, never expecting that he would fall into the hands of this yellow-haired girl.

That day, Fan Yiyao came to Langhuan Yayuan and said that she had something to tell Sun Ran. She discovered a big secret about her father, but she didn't know what to do, so she wanted to discuss it with Sun Ran.

After contacting Fan Yiyao for so many days, Sun Ran realized that Fan Yiyao was very innocent and that was why so many people took advantage of her, besides herself and her father.

A silly girl is really a silly girl.

Sun Ran wanted to get some information about Fan Jian, but because of his carelessness, he fell into Fan Jian's trap and was imprisoned here.He thought it was a torture, but Fan Jian didn't seem to have the intention of torture. Maybe he just wanted to save his life to threaten Han Shangzhi and Xu Shiyan.

Han Shangzhi, that idiot, promised to protect himself well, but he disappeared when he was needed, so he really couldn't rely on this man.

Sun Ran scolded Han Shangzhi thousands of times in his heart.

At this moment, Sun Ran heard the sound of arguing outside the cell door, the voice was still familiar, it seemed to be Fan Yiyao.

"Let me in, you bastards actually stopped me." Fan Yiyao had a serious temper.

"Miss San, the master has ordered no one to enter." The guard said.

"I don't care what my father said. I just want to go in. What can you do to me? Get the hell out of here."

"I'm sorry third miss, I forgive you for not disobeying the master's order." The guards didn't have the slightest intention to let Fan Yiyao in, no matter how the eldest lady behaved, they would not be moved.

Fan Yiyao trembled with anger.

Ever since her father suddenly appeared and took Boss Xu away for some unknown reason, Fan Yiyao refused to tell Fan Jian no matter how much she questioned her. She just told her not to mess around and didn't know if she caused trouble for the family.

She watched Boss Xu being taken away by her father, and then she followed her father to the rockery in the backyard and found that it turned out to be a place where prisoners were held, and there were guards inside.

Today, she wanted to go in and have a look while her father was not there. Boss Xu must have been locked in by her father.Although Fan Yiyao didn't know why her father wanted to arrest Boss Xu, she knew that her father would definitely be detrimental to Boss Xu. His father was always decisive and vicious in his actions.

It was because of this that even though Fan Jian loved Fan Yiyao, Fan Yiyao didn't like being alone with Fan Jian, she was afraid.

Now that Fan Jian has arrested her friends indiscriminately, Fan Yiyao must find Boss Xu.

Fan Yiyao quarreled outside the door for a long time, but the guards just wouldn't let her in, and let the eldest lady mess around, beating and scolding without fighting back.

Listening to the voice outside Laomen, Sun Ran just smiled bitterly. She and the prison are really closely related. She still remembers how she locked herself up to eat and drink like this after being rescued by Xu Shiyan.There was indeed another purpose, but this time she thought it was no exception.

I really don't know if I still have my life to go out?For Xu Shiyan and Han Shangzhi, she is actually just a pawn. Who cares about her life? Sun Ran is not Xu Yan at all, and Fan Jian can't find any information on her. .

Sun Ran laughed at himself, picked up the chopsticks on the table and ate the food, but it was tasteless.

She has always been envious and even jealous of Zhao Xin, but now she looks away.

It's not mine, why should I force it.
