Reborn I want to be a giant

Chapter 83 Kidnapped
Just as the Xu family father and son were about to move their legs, they stopped in unison when they heard the other party's voice.

"What orders does Your Highness have?" Xu Ze looked directly at the other party.

Zhao Yanran looked unhappy, "There is something unclear about this hall, please ask Xu Hanlin to clarify." After speaking, he turned to Xu Ye.

"My cousin, Ning Ying, is not worthy of you in terms of background, appearance, talent, and virtue?"

Xu Ye said neither humble nor overbearing: "Your Highness, a good woman with both ability and political integrity in your heart is not ordinary for me. If you only have a good relationship between the two surnames based on your family background, the emperor has someone who is more suitable than Miss Ning to marry me. Your Highness, I would like to advise you, don't meddle in the courtiers' private affairs."

Zhao Yanran opened his mouth, he didn't know how to refute for a while, it was the first time he was threatened by a sixth-rank official at such a young age.

"If Your Highness has no other orders, I will leave first." Xu Ze nodded, and pulled Xu Ye away from the people in Prince Rui's residence, and walked towards the gate of the palace.

After leaving the palace smoothly, the father and son went to the Lingnan Restaurant near their home for dinner.

"I thought you were going to have a palace fight for my father." Xu Ze looked regretful.

"I just don't want to do what you want." Xu Ye bowed his head to eat.

Xu Ze was in a good mood, "Hold it, his creditor will come back." This tone can only be passed if the creditor comes to ask for it in person.

Xu Ye did not deny that he was indeed enduring, and had been enduring for several years.It is not difficult for him to get Zhao Yanran, and he doesn't even need a single soldier.Just based on the other party's previous words and deeds of caring about the courtiers' marriage, he changed his rhetoric to the Seventh Prince, making the Seventh Prince Zhao Yanjin mistakenly think that Zhao Yanran wanted to win over a high-ranking pure official, pave the way for the prince or himself, and keep Zhao Yanran for a year. half load.

But this is very boring, no one can be hurt at all.From the standpoint of the little girl, he thought, at least someone paid the price with their lives for revenge.

After eating and strolling outside again, the father and son reluctantly returned to the Xu Mansion where the quarrels continued.Sure enough, Pang's and Tian's were mean to each other across the courtyard wall over trivial matters.The father and son couldn't help but sigh silently in their hearts every day, it's really not easy for the second master of the Xu family.

Luyan received the summons, and entered Xu Ye's room lightly.

"Immediately increase your manpower and keep a close eye on Prince Rui's residence and the Zhang family. I will know about everything big and small."

"Yes." Lu Yan left as he came, as if he had never entered.

Xu Ye rubbed the small seal in his palm, thinking of Zhao Yanran's question, his face casually showed disgust, "Who is like you, pick a dung beetle from the pile of pearls and agates as a treasure."

The impeachment memorial has been shelved by the emperor, but it is an indisputable fact that he scolded Xu Ye earlier.So some people speculated on the holy will, thinking that Emperor Chengqi was already dissatisfied with Xu Ze and his son, but Xu Ze's achievements over the years were obvious to all, and Emperor Chengqi was obviously hesitating how to deal with Xu Ye.

According to this line of thinking, the memorials to impeach Xu Ye in the case of Emperor Chengqi became higher and higher.

Jinling
Jing Yuanze didn't go to Lianghexuan, but spent the night at Cheng's house.He also doesn't know why he likes to go to other people's houses in the middle of the night to bother him.

"I came here to tell you that the members of the Wu family met the guests one by one." It would be a lie to say that they are not annoying, not only he is annoying, but his second brother who has returned to Jiangzhou is also annoying.

Cheng Fu was not surprised by this result, "Have you changed your mind?"

Jing Yuanze nodded hesitantly, "I neither admit nor deny it, I just don't know why, Wu Ziqi didn't hurt Xu Ye at all, but was seriously injured by Xu Ye."

Cheng Fu clapped his hands three times, "Convinced."

"...I handed over the list." In fact, he didn't know who had the list of guests that day, let alone who they were.In the end, it was in the hands of the Wu family, obviously it was his father, Master Jing Er's decision.But at this time, he can't do it as a child of the Jing family.

Cheng Fu waved his hand, "Forget it."

"If it's quick, Wu Ziqi will be able to come out tomorrow." That trash's personality may not be able to learn well after she comes out.

Now that the matter has come to this point, Cheng Fu is unwilling to continue to entangle in this matter.If Wu Ziqi can't get out, the Wu family will not reconcile with them.For the current plan, she can only see the tricks, anyway, she is not afraid of anything.

"Actually, I have never quite understood. Why do you think Jiangnan is Jiangnan, and Da Yue is Da Yue?" Cheng Fu was really curious. She felt that the self-confidence of these Jiangnan families often confused her.

Jing Yuanze couldn't answer this question. The environment he lived in was like this since he was a child. Jiangnan is Jiangnan, Da Yue is Da Yue, and even Jinling is Jinling... Such concepts are deeply rooted in his bones.He has never actively and consciously chewed on this subtle cognition, to understand how much disaster is hidden in it.

"In detail, the mutiny in Hangzhou that year, and the flames of war spread throughout the south of the Yangtze River in two months, was quelled by the old Zhao family." In the peaceful and prosperous world built by others, it doesn't matter if you are not grateful.

If you don't like to submit to the Zhao family, you can become the emperor yourself.This group of aristocratic families are clearly lacking in courage and still put on a show. On the surface, they are independent and self-admiring, but secretly they are more greedy than anyone else.Salt, water transportation, mine veins, land, traffickers, black loans, which one they did not reach out.

And the children of the aristocratic family have inherited the family tradition very well, and they often do evil deeds of bullying the market and humiliating the people.With the piles of piles laid out in front of you, what else should others look up to?

Seeing that Jing Yuanze couldn't answer her questions, she didn't force him to make a choice, "If you want the Jing family to live in peace, don't get involved in the Wu family's affairs. You may have forgotten that our emperor, His Majesty, loves the most. Sit together."

Isn't the catastrophe of the Jiangnan family more than ten years ago just a series of sittings?This has been the case in all dynasties, making the emperor unhappy is tantamount to sending himself to the guillotine.In the face of the purity of imperial power, killing innocent people indiscriminately is a normal operation.

After Jing Yuanze left, Cheng Fu felt disgusted when he thought about the Wu family, and secretly thought that he must teach them a painful lesson this time.

"Brother, do you have anyone who is good at observing?"

Cheng Han didn't look up, and the pen in his hand quickly flew across the paper, "What do you want to do?"

"Let him go to Hangzhou."

Wu Ziqi hid at home until Xue Youzhi released the double who was imprisoned for him, and he was considered free again.However, to be on the safe side, the Wu family was killed shortly after the substitute came out and threw his body into the wilderness.They thought that no one would know the truth that Wu Ziqi hadn't been in jail for a few days.

Compared with Wu Ziqi, Wu Ying's life is the most difficult. The Wu family vowed to fight against Xu Ze and his son, but not everyone supported it.Especially the old people who have experienced catastrophe, hope to enjoy peace and die in peace.So after the Zong family used the forces in the capital with great fanfare, they all approached Wu Ying by coincidence.

Those who asked him his opinion, those who asked him to persuade Wu Lingzuo, had everything.

Wu Ying felt that she was really unlucky to be born in Wu's family. When others did evil, she would take care of the aftermath. When others ate meat, she would drink porridge. Bad incidents cannot be separated from him, and good deeds never occurred to her.

In a fit of anger, he hid in the village in the outer city, preferring to stay with the pigs in Lianghexuan, which was a hundred times better than dealing with those messy things in the inner city.

It's just that he didn't hear from him after he left.

"It's been two days and you haven't found anyone yet?" Cheng Fu's heart was pounding.

The people sent out came back one after another, searched the inner city and the outer city, but there was still no trace of Wu Ying.

"Go again..."

Lin Bang rushed in in a panic, covered in dust and in a panic, "Cheng...Cheng...Cheng..."

"Speak slowly." She was afraid that the other party would die on the spot.

"Little Miss, our boss has been kidnapped."

Cheng Fu stood up in disbelief, "What, who did it?"

Lin Bang swallowed his saliva, letting himself take a moment, "The letter sent by the gangster to the eldest son of the Wu family demanded 10 taels of silver. Tonight, he will be replaced at the ruined temple in Luoyeling in the outer city. The Wu family is not willing to give This money is not intended to be redeemed. I beg you, miss, to save our master, and we will return the money to you when our master comes back." Lin Bang knelt down and kowtowed to Cheng Fu non-stop, crying.

"Save, of course I want to save him." Cheng Fu said loudly, "There is not so much cash now, hurry up and ask the cashier to prepare unprinted bank notes."

"Yes, yes..." The little steward who had just been promoted was very embarrassed to encounter this kind of thing, and was in a hurry.

Cheng Han happened to be staying in the academy for the past two days and didn't go home. After hearing about Wu Ying, he immediately asked Fan Yu to take people to Luoye Ridge first. It would be best if a group of people could search the mountain first.After the arrangements were made, he rushed home non-stop to arrest Cheng Fu.

Because he is aware of his sister's virtue, he must personally go to the appointment to redeem her tonight, even if he can't stop him, he has to stay by her side, otherwise he can't rest assured.

Fallen Leaves Ridge was not close, and it would take two hours at a fast pace. When the group arrived at the place designated by the bandits, it was already dark.

Luo Xing walked around the ruined temple, but found nothing unusual, or the ruined temple was so dilapidated that only the foundation was left to tell that it used to be a temple, and there was no way to hide anyone.

The group stayed in the ruined temple until late at night, but they still didn't see the bandits or Wu Ying.When Cheng Fu was so anxious that he wanted to lose his temper and burn the mountain, Fan Yu came back.

"There are traces of the shaft, at the foot of the mountain, fresh."

Cheng Fu stuffed the cloth bag containing the bank notes into Luo Xing's arms, "Go, save him at any cost."

Luo Xing smiled and put the cloth bag into his clothes, spat out the straw in his mouth, "Wait."

"Lord Luo, just use it, there are helpers down the mountain." Fan Yu said to Luo Xing.

"Ah."

Seeing that his sister was tense, Cheng Han hurriedly took her hand to comfort her.

After an unknown amount of time, the sound of feet stepping on fallen leaves suddenly came from the dark and dead forest, approaching them step by step.Fan Yu vigilantly signaled to the two companions who stayed behind to protect the master to fight at any time.The brother and sister who had been sitting on the foundation also stood up.

"Did you bring the money?" A figure suddenly appeared in the woods in front of them.

"You can only have money if you live." Cheng Fu said coldly.

The figure snorted disdainfully, "Only those who see money live."

"Looks like a scammer, let's go." Cheng Fu beckoned everyone to go down the mountain.

Her actions had an obvious effect. Suddenly, the pitch-black forest burst into flames, and dozens of black shadows surrounded them, and gradually narrowed the circle.

These people all have obvious characteristics, that is, they wear hoods and only show their facial features.Cheng Fu distractedly judged his own situation, and inadvertently caught a glimpse of Fan Yu pulling out the pocket crossbow that was fastened on his back in advance.It seems that this girl is ready to fight directly.
