Chapter 44 Chapter 44 Chapter 44
Yinzhen heard the voice and looked down at the person. His brows couldn't help but furrowed at the first sight. He looked at the person in front of him hesitantly and asked, "Yunlai!"
He supported Yinyu with one hand and helped him up from the ground with the other. He frowned and asked, "Why are you here?"
Yunlai is Mingzhu's grandson. He has met him several times when he was a guest at Mingzhu's house.
But he didn't expect to see him in this place. Mingzhu was still imprisoned in the Ministry of Justice, and Mingzhu's mansion had also been raided.
Yunlai should be living with someone in Xicheng District now.
The moment Yinyu saw the person in front of him, he asked System 679, "Who is this person? Why is he holding my eldest brother's leg?"
"Still looking so miserable."
Without waiting for a reply from the 679 system, Yunlai hugged Yinzhen's arm and said to him, "I was watching the lanterns with my brother, and just now we got separated. A few people tried to capture me and take me away. If I hadn't been quick-witted, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to escape."
Having said that, he couldn't help but reveal a look of horror on his face.
He was just about to be captured.
At this moment, he suddenly pulled Yinzhen's arm and said to the people not far away: "Prince Zhi, it's them."
The men looked at Yunlai from a distance, their faces grim. Then the leader came over with a smile and asked Yinzhen, "Does this young master know my young master?"
As he spoke, he glanced at Yinyu on Yinzhen's body and threatened with a smile, "I advise you not to meddle in other people's business."
There were too many people in the market. If they took action, there might be chaos, and the patrol camp would arrive quickly, which would not be of any benefit to them.
But if this person could obediently hand the person over to them, they would not have any conflict with these people.
The clothes and decorations on these people show that they are either rich or noble. It is better not to offend them if you can.
Yin Yu looked at the people in front of him and asked System 679: "Are they threatening us?"
Having said that, he looked them up and down, his small brows furrowed.
Upon hearing this, the 679 system's childish, mechanical voice said solemnly, "This is definitely a threat. I want your eldest brother and the others to stay out of our business. But judging by your eldest brother's expression, I can tell that the two of them know each other, so he will definitely intervene."
Yinzhen looked at the man grabbing his clothes and hid behind him timidly. It turned out that those proud eyes were full of fear.
He reached out and handed Yinyu, who was on top of his head, to Yinreng. Smiling, he pushed Yunlai to Yinreng's side, stretched his arms and legs, and asked the others, "Are you threatening me?"
"Before you said that, didn't you ever think about this: Is he my cousin? Can I just ignore him if he's in danger?!"
When the man heard this, the expression on his face instantly turned cold. He looked at Yinzhi for a few times, then glanced at Yinreng and others. These people looked young, but from their loud tone, one could guess that there were people behind them.
If they take action now, they will probably not end up well.
Thinking of this, the expression on the man's face became a little gloomy, then he glared at Yunlai fiercely and turned away.
After the others left, Yinzhen reached out and pinched Yunlai's ear, almost lifting him up. He sneered and said, "Tell me, who are they? If you don't explain clearly, I'll throw you away right now!"
When Yunlai heard this, he raised his hand to wipe the dirt off his face and said to Yinzhen, "It's not that I don't want to tell you, it's just that I don't know."
"I felt something was amiss when I left the house, so I became more cautious. But who knew I'd still almost be taken away by them. There were other people besides me."
He paused slightly, glanced at Yinyu, and then lowered his voice and said, "I think we should be careful. The Fifteenth Prince is so young. If someone takes advantage of him, I'm afraid it will be impossible to recover him."
He spoke bluntly, making it clear to everyone that these people might be kidnappers.
They wanted to take advantage of the large crowds around the lantern festival to attack some children.
After hearing Yunlai's words, the expressions on Yinzhi and Yinreng's faces became a little solemn. If the story was true, then there would be many children lost on the lanterns today.
Yinreng and Yinzhi looked at each other and saw a hint of caution in each other's eyes.
Yinreng said to Yinzhen and Yinqi, "Little Four and Little Five, take Eleven and Fifteen back first. The lanterns will be in chaos soon. I'm afraid I can't take care of you."
Before he knew about this, he could still take his people back, but once he knew about it, he could no longer leave easily.
Yinzhen nodded slightly to the people serving him, indicating that they should go find the people from the patrol camp first.
Yinzhen nodded slightly to Yinreng and said, "Second brother, don't worry, I will take them directly back to the palace."
As for Yunlai, whether he follows them or his elder brother is not their business.
Yunlai took two steps forward, took Yinzhen's arm, and said to him, "I'm scared. I won't follow you. I want to leave here with the Fourth Prince and the others."
Upon hearing this, Yinzhi's brows knitted together. He glanced at Yinzhen, nodded slightly, and said, "Okay, you can leave with them, but tell me exactly where you met them, otherwise how are we going to find them?"
Yin Yu asked System 679, "System, did those people really capture a lot of children just now?"
If he was really caught, he would find a way to rescue him.
If they really become abducted children, those who are good-looking may be sold to brothels, and those who are not good-looking may be sold to jugglers.
He remembered seeing some children who seemed to be covered with dog skin or bear skin, playing the role of an animal all their lives. Such children were even more pitiful.
Thinking of this, he looked at Yunlai with clear eyes, and his tender little face wrinkled.
After hearing Yinyu's question, the 679 system was silent for a moment. Then, with a hint of fatigue, the childish, mechanical voice said, "We've captured quite a few children. They're in a large courtyard at the easternmost end of the market. While this courtyard looks ordinary from the outside, it has tunnels inside that lead to other places."
"If you want to find the person, you have to go now. If you go too late, the person may run away."
He paused slightly, then continued to Yinyu, "These people are very clever. They hid the people under the courtyard. The entrance is in a well in the courtyard. Most people would search the house to see if there is any secret room."
"They did the opposite. The patrol camp had noticed it, but they would just search inside and then leave. After the patrol camp left, these people would go back and get the people out and continue selling them."
“It’s really horrible.”
This is the first time that the 679 system wants the host to rescue people. These captured people are so pitiful. Some of them who are not good-looking have their hands and feet chopped off at the bottom of the well and become beggars.
Some were directly drugged and could never speak for the rest of their lives.
But he couldn't tell the host these things, so if he played it, it would probably be all mosaics.
It would be better for the host to go and see it directly.
When Yinzhen and his companions heard what Yiren Yitong said, their expressions became a little gloomy, and they glanced at Yunlai.
Yunlai's face was filled with a look of surprise and doubt. Why did he feel that at this moment, except for the Fifteenth Prince who had not changed much, the faces of the rest of the people were so gloomy that water could drip out of them?
Was there something going on that he didn't know about?
As soon as this thought came to his mind, he suddenly became a little uneasy.
Yinyu said to Yinzhi in a baby voice: "Guoguo, Dongdong."
Having said that, he pointed in a direction with his little finger.
Yinzhen watched Yinyu's movements and patted his shoulder, saying to him gently, "Don't worry, my dear Fifteenth Brother, I will find them. I will take the others over now. You, your Fifth Brother, and your Eleventh Brother wait here. The patrol camp will be here soon."
Yinqi reached out and hugged Yinyu, nodded at him, and said seriously: "Don't worry, big brother, I will protect Eleven and Fifteen."
His Kung Fu wasn't great, but he could easily fight three or four ordinary people. Eleven's body was a little weak, but he had learned every move over the years. At least he couldn't use it anymore, and he had no ability to protect himself.
As for Yunlai, it depends on his luck.
Yinyou listened to Yinzhi's arrangements and felt a little anxious. He said to System 679, "Can my eldest brother really find the place? The last time he went to investigate the salt merchants, he passed by the door several times but couldn't find anyone. Now I don't trust him anymore."
System 679 listened to Yinyu's words and comforted him, "Don't worry, I feel fine. Your eldest brother is not well, but your second brother is still there. Your third and fourth brothers are all here. How can you not find anyone?"
"Let's go back soon, before someone takes advantage of you and steals you away."
Yinyu listened to System 679's words and said solemnly in his heart, "You are right. I am still young. If someone wants to take me away, I won't be able to escape."
As he spoke, he hugged Yinqi's neck and urged him in a baby voice, "Daddy. Find Daddy."
No matter what, it is safest to stay with Kangxi.
Yinqi couldn't help but chuckle when he heard Yinyu's words. He patted his back and said to him, "Okay, Fifth Brother will take you to find Daddy right away."
After saying this, he turned to Yinzhen and nodded slightly, then walked towards the carriage.
As soon as he walked into the alley, he saw several dark shadows standing in front of him. Yinqi's heart trembled slightly. He turned around and wanted to go back, but he saw several people standing where they came from.
The moment Yinyu saw the people, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly. He said to System 679, "These people are actually guarding here. If I had known earlier, I would have followed Big Brother and the others."
System 679 listened to his words, and its childish, mechanical voice said with some melancholy, "I didn't expect them to be here."
Those people walked towards Yinqi and the others. The moment they saw Yinyu, they smiled brightly and said to him, "Young Master, where are you going? Let's have a good chat."
