Chapter 241: Fallen into a Trap



Song Qianning's eyes lit up as she keenly grasped the key point.

East wing!

After hearing where Zizi was being held captive, she lowered her head and quietly left the boss's yard, just like when she came, carrying the food box and walking towards the yard of the east wing.

On the way to the east wing, we encountered a few patrolling bandits.

When the bandits learned that Song Qianning was going to deliver food to the children who were captured in the east wing, they let her go and she didn't encounter any further obstruction.

The journey was smooth and surprisingly successful.

Arriving at the east wing mentioned by the boss, Song Qianning stood outside the yard and looked around.

After making sure there were no other bandits around, she took the food box and walked inside, pretending to deliver food.

There was only one intact wing room in the entire yard. Song Qianning put down the food box in her hand, walked quickly forward, and pushed open the door of the wing room.

However, after pushing open the door, what he saw was an empty room. Apart from tables and chairs, there was nothing else, and there was no sign of the two cubs.

Before she could go in and look carefully, a strange fragrance came to her.

The next second, the man lost consciousness and fell limply to the ground.

Not long after Song Qianning fell to the ground, another figure appeared behind her. It was Shangguan Qing.

Looking at Song Qianning lying on the ground, Shangguan Qing's eyes were filled with unconcealed pride and a hint of resentment. She snorted coldly, "Come here, tie this woman up for me!"

Two bandits immediately came forward, dragged Song Qianning up from the ground, and according to Shangguan Qing's instructions, tied her up with a rope and put her aside.

After they finished all this, they retreated outside, nodding and bowing in the face of Shangguan Qing's impatient movements: "Princess, if you need anything, please call me anytime."

After the bandits left, only Shangguan Qing and the unconscious Song Qianning were left in the room.

The pride in her eyes could not be concealed.

"Bitch, you still fell into my hands."

With her eyes fixed on Song Qianning, Shangguan Qing's mouth was filled with deep resentment and hatred.

After cooperating with Gu Yunji, she wanted to take action against Song Qianning a few days ago. Unfortunately, Qin Ye's men protected her tightly, and since they were in the capital, it was difficult to take action.

After finally waiting until today, she couldn't wait to go with the bandits she had bribed in advance to kidnap Song Qianning and the two bastards.

Unfortunately, Song Qianning was not in the room at the manor, so she escaped temporarily.

Fortunately, it finally fell into her hands.

The other side.

After leaving with the guards and eunuchs, Qin Ye looked at the eunuch in front of him, squinted his eyes, and always felt that something was wrong.

The eunuch in front saw the horse behind him stop and also stopped: "Your Highness, why don't you continue walking?"

Without answering the eunuch's question, Qin Ye stared at him for a few seconds, then suddenly said, "The emperor didn't send you here."

It was a voice without any ups and downs, but it carried an inexplicable sense of certainty.

The eunuch was stunned and looked at him in confusion: "Your Majesty, what do you mean by this? It was indeed His Majesty who asked this old servant to find you."

"You'd better return with this old servant quickly, and don't make His Majesty wait anxiously in the palace."

Ignoring the eunuch, Qin Ye glanced around and sneered, "Since you're here, don't hide."

As he finished speaking, dozens of figures appeared at once, and the one leading them was Gu Yunji.

Clapping his hands, Gu Yunji walked towards Qin Ye with a smile on his face, as if he was treating his old friend.

"Your Highness is truly clever. He can even see something amiss in such a flawless scheme."

Sure enough, the eunuch who had been talking about Your Majesty just now ran to stand behind Gu Yunji after he appeared, and called him "Sir Gu" respectfully.

At first, Qin Ye saw that the person coming was a eunuch beside the emperor, holding the emperor's token in his hand. He mistakenly thought that the emperor had urgently summoned him from the palace and did not think much about it.

It wasn't until just now that I realized something was wrong.

According to the emperor's temperament, if there really was an urgent matter, he would certainly not just send a clumsy eunuch, nor would he bother to bring the token along.

"Master Gu's hands are longer than I imagined."

"Your humble servant will take your words as a compliment, Your Highness." The smile on Gu Yunji's face deepened.

He called me "your humble official" but there was no respect on his face, and there was smugness and cruelty in the depths of his eyes.

In order to capture Qin Ye in one fell swoop, he used his most powerful spy buried deep in the palace.

Qin Ye raised his lips in a sarcastic arc, and when he looked at Gu Yunji, he had no expression: "It seems that no matter before or after, Master Gu still likes to play dirty."

Despite being ridiculed, Gu Yunji remained calm, a rare occurrence. "As long as I can win, I don't care about any tricks."

He must catch Qin Ye today!

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly raised his voice: "Come here, capture Qin Ye for me!"

The men behind him received the order and immediately dispersed, forming a circle around Qin Ye and the others.

Seeing Qin Ye preparing to move, Gu Yunji's smile remained unchanged: "Of course, the prince can choose to resist, but the princess on the farm..."

Because of his words, the aura around Qin Ye suddenly turned cold.

In the past, he would definitely ignore Gu Yunji, but Chang Qing happened to be sent out by him yesterday and was not with Song Qianning today.

After looking at Gu Yunji deeply, Qin Ye waved to the guards beside him.

"Hmph, bring the traitor Qin Ye back to the Dali Temple for me!"

After witnessing his men kidnapping Qin Ye, Gu Yunji could no longer control himself and burst into laughter.

After laughing for a long time, Gu Yunji stopped and looked at Qin Ye's back with a vicious look on his face.

No matter how capable Qin Ye is, isn't he still in his hands and unable to turn things around?

It won't be long before he can completely deal with Qin Ye.

Copycat.

Song Qianning slowly woke up from her coma, and the moment she regained consciousness, her memories before the coma began to return.

She paused and subconsciously looked around. It was the same room she had seen before she lost consciousness.

At the same time, Song Qianning inappropriately recalled the conversation she had heard outside the boss's room, and finally realized that something was wrong.

Some things that she had ignored also came back to her mind.

For such a large stronghold, even if it is located deep in the mountains, the defenses should not be so lax, with no one guarding the entrance.

Even ordinary small mountain villages usually have guard posts at the entrance.

Including the later part where she disguised herself as a cook, sneaked into the village, and heard the whereabouts of the child from the boss, everything seemed to develop too smoothly.

I didn't encounter anyone questioning me on the way.

There were also the conversations she heard. She didn't feel anything wrong at the time, but now when she thinks back on it, there is something weird about them, including the conversations the boss had in the room.

From the beginning, everything went surprisingly smoothly, as if it was waiting for her to come.
