At that time, the Regent's Palace.

Xiao Moyan was sitting in the study reading memorials when suddenly, Lin Feng pushed the door open without even knocking. His abrupt appearance made Xiao Moyan frown.

Lin Feng didn't even bother to greet him, and hurriedly reported: "Your Majesty, the Emperor has been captured."

After these words were spoken, Xiao Moyan's hand holding the memorial paused slightly, his expression frozen for a moment. He did not ask about the cause, process, or outcome of the incident, but directly asked, "Who arrested him?"

"It's the group of people that the prince asked his subordinates to investigate before. They are now in the abandoned Shifang Street on the North Street..." Before Lin Feng finished speaking, Xiao Moyan had already put down the memorial and stood up. He disappeared in front of Lin Feng almost in the blink of an eye.

Lin Feng only felt a cool breeze blowing past him, and the next moment, Xiao Moyan was no longer in the room.

Seeing this, Lin Feng's mouth twitched slightly, and he couldn't help but feel ashamed: "Your Majesty, you are walking so fast, do you know where Shifang Street is?"

However, the prince's speed was really fast, even faster than before, and he disappeared in a flash.

At the same time, Wu Fang, who was busy adjusting personnel, received a message from the secret guard.

Wu Fang looked at the masked guards in black before him, his expression changing. "What?! The Emperor was captured by that group of people? Did the Emperor do it willingly?"

With the emperor's strength, it wouldn't be so easy for him to be caught.

The hidden guard nodded slightly and said, "Yes."

After receiving the confirmation from the hidden guards, Wu Fang's face darkened slightly. After a long silence, he said, "Pass on my order. All the visible guards must prioritize the safety of the emperor. We must ensure his safety." At this point, Wu Fang paused and continued, "Forget it. I'll go myself."

He has not yet found out the identity and purpose of that group of people, and he has not had time to report the recent situation of that group of people to the emperor. He hopes that it will not be as he expected, otherwise the emperor will be in danger.

Here, Ji Xingzhi had a black cloth bag covering his head, and everything was dark before his eyes. After walking for about a quarter of an hour, Ji Xingzhi was ruthlessly pushed to the ground, and his butt fell straight on the ground, making Ji Xingzhi grimace in pain.

In a moment, someone took off the cloth bag on Ji Xingzhi's head, and the sunlight instantly shone in from the door, stinging Ji Xingzhi's eyes. Ji Xingzhi closed his eyes reflexively, moved his buttocks, and slowly opened his eyes when he felt that the sun was no longer shining on his face.

Looking around, this place looked like a woodshed, filled with firewood. Ji Xingzhi was sitting on a pile of straw, with the only person in front of him was the middle-aged man.

"Did he send you here?" the middle-aged man asked in a deep voice, standing in front of Ji Xingzhi.

Ji Xingzhi was slightly stunned, and asked in confusion: "Him? Who?"

The middle-aged man's face darkened slightly, and he stared at Ji Xingzhi intently, as if he wanted to stare a hole through her: "Tell the truth, and I'll spare your life."

Ji Xingzhi said in bewilderment, "Spare my life? Don't you want silver?"

The middle-aged man stared at Ji Xingzhi coldly and said loudly, "Someone come here."

As soon as he finished speaking, two people came forward and waited on the side.

"You two guard him." the middle-aged man ordered.

The two men nodded slightly and said, "Yes."

The middle-aged man gave Ji Xingzhi a cold glance for the last time, then walked out of the woodshed, as if he was talking to someone outside. His voice was so low that Ji Xingzhi could only hear one or two unimportant words.

Ji Xingzhi glanced at the two people guarding him and began to threaten and seduce them.

"Hey! If you let me go, I will give you endless gold, silver and treasures." Ji Xingzhi whispered.
