Chapter 200 Rescue
She looked at Zhao Yuannian in confusion and asked, "I have to go find Yu Yu and the others. Why did you bring me here?"
Zhao Yuannian shook his head heavily and told her: "You are a step too late. They have already left. We must leave here quickly."
After hearing this, Zhao Chunhua stood up in surprise, her eyes full of confusion and worry.
"What do you mean? They're not there anymore?"
she demanded anxiously.
Zhao Yuannian quickly explained: "I have asked Lao Qu to inform them. I hope they can get the news in time and hide as soon as possible. Don't worry, if everything goes well, they should be hiding as well."
“It’s just not credible.”
"After investigation, I learned two things. The first is that Prince Chen's mansion did indeed send out many people to search, but they did not find any trace of the person who was captured. The second important information is that the old Qu we know also suddenly disappeared. If he was really captured by Prince Chen, then it stands to reason that with Old Qu's strength, he should not disappear so easily."
Zhao Yuannian analyzed clearly.
Zhao Chunhua couldn't help but frown after hearing this.
"In that case, if it wasn't done by King Chen, it was most likely done by King Ming."
"According to the information we have, it is speculated that Lao Qu and the people from the Ming Wang side arrived at the scene at about the same time, and both sides participated in the arrest operation. Or maybe the Ming Wang side captured Yu Yu and the others first, and when Lao Qu tried to rescue them, he was captured instead."
When he said this, Zhao Yuannian's expression became more serious. "I think the latter is closer to the actual situation."
Seeing her brother's firm attitude, Zhao Chunhua slowly nodded to show that she agreed with his opinion.
"You're right. After all, he's just like you. He often gets hot-headed. He should have been hiding at this time."
These words obviously made Zhao Yuannian feel a little unhappy. He retorted, "How do you know that he has not taken any hiding measures? Maybe he was tracking the other party and wanted to find out the ins and outs of the matter, so he accidentally fell into the trap..." As soon as he finished speaking, he stood up abruptly. This action attracted the attention of the guests who were quietly sipping tea around him.
Zhao Chunhua quickly pulled him back to his seat.
"Sit down now!"
There was a certain anxiety in her voice, and she was clearly very worried about the situation.
Zhao Yuannian sat down, looking a little anxious, with an uneasy expression on his face.
"Ming Wang's people recognized Lao Qu, and he might be in trouble."
The tension in the words was self-evident.
Zhao Chunhua also thought of this instantly.
My mind quickly replayed the recent events.
Although Song Yuyu, Song Dadi and others should not have been discovered for the time being and therefore probably would be fine, but considering Qu Zhongyi, the situation is not that simple.
There is a good chance that the other party has already taken direct action to arrest him or worse.
After realizing this, she knew that she needed to calm Zhao Yuannian down, so she comforted him and said, "Since it has already happened, no matter how anxious we are, we can't change the status quo. What we need to do now is to calm down and find out where they were taken after being arrested. Maybe Brother Qu is with them right now and was taken away with them."
After hearing this, Zhao Yuannian finally relaxed a little. "I hope you are right. Then, I will set off now and check all the places where Ming Wang Murong Xue's people may be hiding to see if I can find any valuable clues. Then we can start the rescue plan."
From his firm tone, one can feel a strong determination to rescue his friend from dire straits.
However, Zhao Chunhua held a different opinion and immediately shook her head to express her opposition.
"But the problem is, do you know that the Ming King controls so many industries?
The industry is almost everywhere in the city. If we just blindly check them one by one, we don’t know when we can really find useful information.”
"Actually, if you think about it carefully, the essence of this incident is just that those people wanted to force me to return the two precious items I got before."
After a pause, he added, "It is very likely that they already know that I have a residence in the city, and they are lurking there, waiting for me to fall into their trap!"
Hearing this, an idea suddenly flashed through his mind, causing Zhao Yuannian, who had originally planned to sit and wait for more news, to stand up again, as if he had found the key to solving the problem.
"Yeah, why didn't I think of such an obvious possibility earlier!"
The slightly excited voice attracted curious glances from the surrounding customers, filling the air with an inexplicable sense of tension.
Seeing this, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Zhao Jing quickly poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to the excited young man in front of her to ease his impatience. At the same time, she whispered: "Can you lower your voice a little? You are so anxious now, it is impossible to deal with the problem rationally."
After the other party gradually calmed down, she spoke again and proposed the next action plan.
"Listen, we can go in two ways. On the one hand, I will go back to my residence to check if there are any traps or ambushes. On the other hand, I need you to ensure your own safety and go to meet up with the person in contact with King Chen's camp to discuss how to rescue him next."
"go home?"
Zhao Yuannian didn't react for a moment. His brows furrowed slightly, as if confused by this sudden decision.
Thinking of the scolding he had just received from Zhao Chunhua, he couldn't help feeling a little uneasy, but he immediately calmed down.
"Okay, got it."
He responded softly, a hint of uneasiness in his voice.
Zhao Chunhua went on to explain: "According to my judgment, the people from Prince Ming's side may have already ambushed us at home, so the situation is very critical now and we need to be extra careful. At the same time, Prince Chen's men are also looking for me, and they will definitely not give up easily."
After speaking the plan in a low voice, Zhao Chunhua noticed a glimmer of surprise in Zhao Yuannian's eyes.
He seemed to want to praise herself, but was afraid of exposing his position and dared not make a sound. In the end, he just silently gave her a thumbs up and left quietly.
Zhao Chunhua watched her brother's back disappear into the night before she slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
She herself chose to stay for a while to make sure there were no potential threats before leaving her current location.
Finally, when everything around her returned to a peaceful state, she chose a secluded place and began to wash her face using some special makeup techniques.
Soon, the carefully made-up face disappeared completely, replaced by her true appearance.
Then, in order to reach her destination faster, she decided to hire a carriage to go to her home.
