Chapter 36 Kidnapping
The whole family seemed to have endless things to talk about together, and before they knew it, they ate this lunch for more than half an hour.

After drinking and eating, sisters Zhao Minyi went to the kitchen to clean up the dishes, Cao Wenzhi returned home to study, and Li Xuan and Cao Wenxian gathered around Li Ying.

"Sister, how long is brother-in-law going this time?"

Li Ying shook his head: "He said that the return date has not yet been determined."

Li Xuan immediately drooped his head, and said with a sad face: "When will my brother-in-law come back and continue teaching me martial arts..."

"The master leads the door, and the practice is on your own. Your brother-in-law has given you the most important method, and you have to learn to calm down and think about it."

Li Xuan scratched his head: "But what if I feel sleepy after reading a book?"

Li Yingyu said earnestly: "Xuan'er, do you think that martial arts practitioners only need to be strong and willing to practice hard? Let me tell you, you are wrong. Take your brother-in-law as an example. When he is free, he will not put down the book, either reading military books or reading battle reports, I have never seen him slack off reading for more than half a point on the grounds of martial arts."

Xiao Lian's image in Li Xuan's heart became more and more glorious, and he opened his eyes wide and asked, "So brother-in-law loves reading so much?"

"What do you think?" Li Ying poked brother on the forehead, "It's not that my sister is bragging. If your brother-in-law hadn't joined the army back then, maybe he could be the chief minister of the cabinet now."

"Sister, I understand, I'm going to study now!" Li Xuan stood up abruptly, his leaving back was full of determination and confidence.

"It's easier to move the prince out now than the Heavenly King." After Li Xuan left, Cao Wenxian joked with a smile.

"Who says it's not? Boys of this age are the most difficult to discipline. Fortunately, someone can calm him down." Li Ying sipped his tea and sighed.

"Ah, the time is almost over, Cousin Ying, if we don't hurry up, you may be entering the palace soon."

"Whatever Xian'er wants to do, I will accompany you."

"Hmm..." Cao Wenxian thought for a while, "Why don't you go to the bookstore, and you can relieve your boredom by entering the palace with a few books."

"Okay."

The two of them rode arm in arm in the carriage of the palace and went to the book shop.

When the carriage stopped at the door of the bookstore, Li Ying saw that the Changyin Building opposite was still full of people, and there was a lot of people inside, creating a lively scene.She couldn't help feeling: "Time flies so fast, it has been more than two months since Yin's death, and now there is no trace of his presence in Changyin Building."

Cao Wenxian also sighed: "That's right, the Yin family just died like that. No one knows about it, and no one cares about it. The Changyin Building can still function without him."

Li Ying patted Cao Wenxian's hand and said, "We're all going to be safe."

"Well, definitely will."

The two turned around and went into the book shop. Li Ying casually picked up a copy of "Where to Find My Green Plum" and read it with relish, while Cao Wenxian picked out a book about the story of a handsome man and a down-and-out lady. Fascinated, I forgot the time.

"Guest officer, I'm sorry, our bookstore will close in a quarter of an hour." If it wasn't for the reminder from the shop assistant, Li Ying would have almost forgotten the agreement with Mother Xu.

"Oops, I'm going to be late." Li Ying hurriedly picked up a few books and hurried out, but Madam Xu's carriage had already stopped outside the door.

"Mom, how do you know I'm here?" Li Ying was surprised when she saw the smiling Xu Momo.

"Xinzhu said that you were so fascinated by reading that you would forget the time, so they asked me to come here to pick you up."

It turned out to be like this, Li Ying gave Hsinchu an approving look: "Those who know me, Hsinchu too."

Hsinchu smiled embarrassingly, and thoughtfully helped Li Ying into the carriage, while Cao Wenxian stood at the door of the book shop with a look of reluctance.

"Cousin Ying, it would be great if I could enter the palace and play with you."

"What's so difficult about this? Here, this is my token. If you want to enter the palace, show this token to the guard of the Xuanwu Gate, and he will let you in."

"Really? That's great!" Cao Wenxian happily accepted the token from Li Ying.

"It's getting late, you're not safe as a woman, go home in my carriage."

"Cousin Ying, you are waiting for me in the palace."

"I'm definitely looking forward to it every day." Li Ying smiled and waved to Cao Wenxian, then turned and got into the carriage.

The autumnal equinox had already passed, and the sun set earlier every day. When Cao Wenxian got into the carriage, it was already dark and she couldn't see the road clearly, so she felt a little scared.

"Master, let's go back to the Marquis Mansion quickly."

"okay."

After bidding farewell to Li Ying, Cao Wenxian sat alone in the empty carriage, her heart was also empty, and her head was lost in ecstasy all the way.

She didn't realize the abnormal movement outside, until the carriage suddenly stopped with a "click", Cao Wenxian was shocked, and hurriedly opened the curtain and asked, "What happened?"

The moment she poked her head out, a masked man in black fell from the roof of the car, grabbed her tightly, and tightly covered her mouth with his hands.

Cao Wenxian was frightened out of her wits, her eyes widened in horror, and she kept yelling "Wuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

At this time, another masked man jumped into the carriage and quickly tied Cao Wenxian's hands and feet with a rope. Just as he was about to stuff Cao Wenxian's mouth with a cloth strip, Cao Wenxian took the opportunity to shout: "I am the Prince of Xuanping!" Girl, who are you!"

The masked man was taken aback when he heard the words, but immediately covered her mouth with a cloth strip, and covered Cao Wenxian's head with a black sackcloth.

"What's going on?" Cao Wenxian heard the two whispering, "Isn't it Prince Zhong's carriage?"

"Yeah, I'm sure."

"Then how does this woman say that she is from the Xuanping Hou Mansion?"

"It's probably trying to fool us. Don't worry about it. Let's tie it up first."

Cao Wenxian immediately understood that the target of these two people was not her at all, but Cousin Ying!
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Cao Wenxian had never seen this kind of battle since she was a child, and she was immediately frightened and did not dare to make a sound, she could only shed tears of fear silently.

One of the men picked up Cao Wenxian involuntarily, and with a "bang", something fell from Cao Wenxian's sleeve to the ground.

Another man picked up the token, saw the name engraved on it, and sneered: "Grandma, you still want to lie to me, look, what is this?"

The two of them decided that she was Li Ying without a doubt, and threw her into another carriage parked in the alley, and drove to an unknown place with all the twists and turns.

A little light pierced through the black cloth, and Cao Wenxian faintly smelled a pungent rotten smell, which made her almost nauseous.

"Master, someone brought it."

"Is there anything wrong?" A voice that seemed somewhat familiar reached Cao Wenxian's ears.

who is it?Is this the real culprit who wanted to kidnap Cousin Ying?
"Don't worry, master, absolutely not."

"Go down."

"Yes."

The surroundings became dead silent, only the sound of a man's boots stomping on the ground, and "slaps" and "slaps" came towards her one after another. Cao Wenxian's hairs stood on end. Being tied up, it was impossible to move an inch.

One hand pulled the black cloth off her head, and for a moment, the light from the surrounding candles pierced Cao Wenxian's eyes, making her unable to open her eyes for a while.

When she gradually got used to the light around her, she suddenly found that the person standing in front of her was none other than the "kind, graceful, handsome, gentle" person she said she wanted to marry in her dreams—the fourth prince Xiao Ling!

"Why...how could it be you..." Cao Wenxian murmured in a daze.

Of course she had heard about the fourth prince and Concubine Rong falling out of favor, but she hadn't connected it with what happened to Cousin Ying at all. It wasn't until this moment that she realized it.

"You can't look at people's appearance, let alone listen to other people's words. Xian'er, if you really like the fourth prince, my sister advises you to get in touch with him more. When you really understand him, it's not too late to decide to like him." What the cousin said to her lingered in her ears at this moment, echoing for a long time.

Cao Wenxian couldn't help smiling wryly, she didn't expect her first close contact with him to be in such a situation.

Xiao Ling watched the face of the person in front of her change, and thought she was frightened.He took off the cloth strip from Cao Wenxian's mouth and said in a toneless manner: "Loyal to the princess, I have admired her name for a long time."

Cao Wenxian spat and said: "If you have the ability to let go of me, bullying a weak woman is nothing!"

Xiao Ling paced around Cao Wenxian who was tied up by five flowers with great interest: "Guess, if Xiao Lian sees you like this, what kind of expression will it be?" With a cold smile: "It must be very interesting."

"You don't have to be proud, I tell you, I'm not the person you're looking for at all!"

Xiao Ling narrowed her eyes, squatted down and raised Cao Wenxian's chin, and asked, "What do you mean?"

Cao Wenxian turned her head abruptly and shook off Xiao Ling's hand: "Don't touch me, I feel sick."

Xiao Ling squeezed Cao Wenxian's chin firmly with her hands: "Say it clearly, or I will throw you into that room directly."

Cao Wenxian looked in the direction of Xiaoling's finger, and found that it seemed to be the source of the pungent rotten smell. She felt cold all over her body and couldn't help shivering.

"You know you're afraid. If you're afraid, tell me quickly, who are you?"

Cao Wenxian never thought that the opening remarks of introducing herself to him for the first time would be like this.She didn't want him to see her frightened appearance, but her tears still flowed down, and she couldn't help it no matter how hard she tried.

She cried and said: "My name is Cao Wenxian, the daughter of Marquis Xuanping. Li Ying is my cousin. She has already entered the palace in the Queen Mother's carriage. She gave me the token so that I can go to the palace to look for her." .”

Xiao Ling didn't want to believe the words of the woman on the ground, but she couldn't find any loopholes.Thinking about it carefully, it is rumored outside that the loyal princess relied on her alluring face to fascinate Xiao Lian so much that she even made Xiao Lian expose herself regardless of the risk of being targeted by half of the court. Let's take a look Although the woman in front of her is pretty, she can never be called an alluring woman. Looking at her attire carefully, it is clear that she is a woman who has not left the court!
Xiao Ling was furious, and summoned the two men in black in a sharp voice.

"This is the loyal princess you mentioned?" Xiao Ling's voice was full of murderous intent.

"Master, is there... is there something wrong?" The man in black replied tremblingly.

"You are really my loyal and capable subordinates." Xiaoling's eyes flashed a cold light, he kicked open the door with his feet, and then threw the two men in black involuntarily.

A strong rotten smell hit her nostrils, and Cao Wenxian subconsciously "vomited", but when she saw the scene in the room clearly, she forgot to react.

There were a lot of stray dogs in that room, each of them was hungry, salivating constantly, and making horrible growls. What was even more frightening was that the ground was covered with the bones of unknown animals. Glowing green light.

The moment the two black men were thrown in by Xiao Ling, countless stray dogs rushed to their feet, wanting to taste this "delicacy" that they hadn't had for a long time.The two men kept trying to fight off the stray dogs with their bare hands, but fear was trivialized in the face of absolute hunger.A stray dog ​​was beaten to the ground, and countless stray dogs rushed forward. Soon, the two of them became exhausted and drowned in the pack of dogs...

Cao Wenxian looked at all this in disbelief, and couldn't tell whether it was a nightmare or reality for a while, until Xiao Ling watched all this with satisfaction, closed the door and walked to her side again.

Cao Wenxian felt that every pore of her was screaming!It turns out that behind the so-called reputation of taking in stray dogs and cats is Xiao Ling's extremely cruel killing methods!
"Xiao Ling, you lunatic, devil!" Cao Wenxian screamed and cursed.

"How about it? Does it look good? Do you want to try it yourself to be eaten by wild dogs?"

"I have no grievances or enmities with you, why do you treat me like this!"

"No injustice or enmity? You are the cousin of Princess Zhongqin, and that is my enemy. How can I have no enmity with you?"

"My cousin didn't do anything, you were the one who set things up behind her back all this time, shit!" Cao Wenxian spat at Xiao Ling again.

Xiaoling wiped the spittle off her face, and said with a sneer, "If you want to blame, blame your cousin for marrying the wrong person."

"Xiao Ling, you must die!"

Xiaoling ignored Cao Wenxian's cursing, and said to herself: "Let me think about it, how should I deal with you? Kill you? It seems that I can't hurt Xiao Lian's heart... Otherwise, I will give it to you." Would you like some excitement?"

"What do you want to do?!" Cao Wenxian had an ominous premonition in her heart.

"Just to scare you, let's give Xiao Lian a small gift." Xiao Ling was very satisfied with his idea, and he stretched out his hand to drag Cao Wenxian into that room.

"Don't, don't!" Cao Wenxian cried and struggled.

"It's very interesting, I guarantee you will never forget it." Xiao Ling threw Cao Wenxian onto the beam with strength, and then untied the rope that bound her hands, and hung her on the beam.

As long as Cao Wenxian lowered her head, she could see countless pairs of eyes emitting green light below.
