Chapter 803: Is there a jade seal in the box?
Before Nan Yan opened her eyes, she already knew that she was being held hostage.
After all, before she was caught, she clearly saw several dark shadows suddenly emerging from the night.
Because Ran Xiaoyu went out to tell the guards that there was a light on the Golden Building, all the guards near Yishou Hall ran there, which gave these people an opportunity to take advantage of.
At that moment, she took a step back in panic and tried to close the door.
However, when encountering thugs, doors and windows are useless.
Those people kicked the door open easily and rushed in.
Before she fell into coma, she saw a man waving at her, a puff of white smoke rose in front of her eyes, and then she fell into darkness.
At this time, it was still pitch black in front of me.
But it seems that there is a faint light.
But what is the situation now?
Could it be that the thieves who appeared in the Golden Building had kidnapped him? If so, then these thieves were really bold!
You know, Jinlou Villa is the royal palace!
They actually dared to break into the royal palace to steal, and not only did they steal, they also kidnapped the imperial concubine!
Just thinking about this, Nan Yan immediately came back to her senses.
These people can't be ordinary thieves.
Not even an ordinary person.
She thought this and forced herself to close her eyes, listening to the sounds around her. Sure enough, she heard a clanging sound, as if someone was fiddling with something. After a while, she gave up and said, "This won't work. I can't open it."
Someone immediately said, "It's just a wooden box, how come it can't be opened?"
When she heard this voice, Nan Yan's heart trembled.
Because she recognized that this was the voice of Ashige, the King of Beili of the Neng Kingdom!
It turned out to be him!
He said that it was not an ordinary thief, nor an ordinary person. It was actually Ashige who brought people to Jinlou Villa to steal things and even kidnapped him.
What is he going to do?
Thinking of this, Nan Yan's breathing became a little heavy.
Just then, someone said, "Wait a minute."
Suddenly, everything around became quiet.
Nan Yan also subconsciously held her breath, wanting to hear what happened, but the next moment, that person's voice rang almost next to her ear -
"You're already awake, why don't you open your eyes?"
“…”
"Your Highness."
“…”
It turned out that he had been discovered.
Nan Yan's brows furrowed again, and at this moment, Axige also rushed over, as if looking at her, and said, "Si Nan Yan, are you awake?"
Of course I can’t pretend anymore.
Even with her eyes closed, Nan Yan could feel a bright light in front of her eyes.
Then she slowly opened her eyes.
As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw a candlelight flickering in front of me. Someone was holding a candlestick to illuminate me, and at the same time, it also illuminated the two faces in front of me.
One of the faces, as expected, was that of King Ashige of Beili.
He lowered his head and looked at himself, a slightly ferocious expression appearing on his bearded face.
Next to him stood a middle-aged man.
This middle-aged man was probably in his forties, with a square face, thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a beard. He had a calm and honest look.
However, it was he who reminded Ashige to wake up.
Nan Yan looked at this man, then looked at Axige and said, "King Beili, why did you capture me?"
"No reason," Ashig said coldly, "We just want to have one more chip in our hands—no, two more chips."
Nan Yan subconsciously protected her stomach: "You want to use me as a hostage?"
"What else? What use do you think you are to us?"
“…”
Since he is used as a hostage and has no other use, it means that he is not in danger for the time being.
However, it's hard to say.
When I was in Neng Kingdom before, I had openly confronted him. I also played a role in the Battle of Peking. Ashige should hate me very much.
Nan Yan looked at him cautiously.
Ashige sneered and said, "Yes, you'd better behave yourself."
“…”
"Otherwise, I will make you and this little kid in your belly die together!"
What he said really scared Nan Yan.
She quickly sat up and tried her best to move back a little.
Ashige looked at her frightened expression and sneered again. He didn't want to say anything more to her and turned to walk to the other side. Nan Yan took the opportunity to look up and around, only then did she realize that she was now in a room.
The room was large, but empty, damp and cold.
It looks like no one has lived here for a long time.
I'm afraid it's one of their resting places.
He was lying on a bed with a piece of clothing underneath him.
The middle-aged man with a beard was only wearing a shirt, and it seemed that the clothes were his.
Nan Yan looked at him with some surprise.
The middle-aged man didn't say anything and just sat on the stool next to him.
At this time, a voice was heard from the other side. Ashige said to the other person, "Why can't it be opened? Explain clearly."
Nan Yan turned around and saw him sitting at the table with another man in black.
The man in black was about thirty years old, very thin, with a mustache on his upper lip, and looked like a mouse. In addition, he was wearing black clothes, which made him look like a mouse spirit.
Moreover, his eyes seemed very shrewd.
Nan Yan vaguely remembered that before she fell into coma, the person who sprayed white smoke at her seemed to be a thin man in black.
Two people faced a wooden box.
It was the box she saw on the third floor of the Golden Building that day.
The rat demon said to Ashige, "Look, my king, this lock is not an independent lock. The other half is buried in the box."
"What's the meaning?"
"This lock is specially made. If you force it open or open the wooden box without the key, the contents inside may be destroyed."
Ashige's brows suddenly furrowed.
"What? There's such a thing?"
"This kind of lock is originally a very sophisticated device from Yan Country."
"You don't know how?"
"this--"
"Hmph, useless thing!"
When the man was scolded by Ashige, he immediately lowered his head in dissatisfaction.
Holding the box, Ashige cursed, "I have traveled thousands of miles, deep into the territory of Yan State, just to find the jade seal. Now that I have finally found this box, I can't open it. Is this all for nothing?"
“……!”
Nan Yan was listening nearby and her heart skipped a beat.
Jade seal?
The box contains the jade seal of their Dian Kingdom?
How is that possible?
Nan Yan frowned subconsciously, and Ashige seemed to feel her gaze and looked up at her.
