Chapter 68 Kidnapping



Wen Jie frowned and stared at the box intently.

After a while, he dismissed the woman who was serving drinks beside him.

"Who are you? What is this?"

Lu Yanluo did not hide anything: "Princess Ye, Lu Yanluo."

She looked at the box, her eyes smiling: "As for this thing, it is a secret in the Beiyan Palace."

Sure enough, upon hearing the word Beiyan, Wen Jie finally stopped looking ridiculous.

"This box is very strange. I have studied it before and found that the mechanism inside it is very complicated. It is derived from Qimen Dunjia. Unfortunately, I only know a little about Qimen Dunjia, so I came to ask General Wen for help."

Lu Yanluo pointed at the patterns on the box and said slowly, "These are the eight gates of Qimen Dunjia. With what I have learned, I really can't figure out the result. Please explain it to me, General."

"The princess actually knows Qimen Dunjia?"

Wen Jie's eyes were full of admiration: "It is rare for a girl in the boudoir to have such knowledge."

Lu Yanluo smiled and said, "General Wen, you are too kind. I have only learned the basics. How can I compare with you?"

When Qi Men Dun Jia was passed down to the modern era, there is hardly much left.

When she was a secret agent, she had learned some basic knowledge of Qimen Dunjia, but too little of it had been passed down. She simply could not solve the mechanism designed using the real ancient geomancy technique.

"If you have the ability, why be so modest?"

Wen Jie picked up the box casually: "But this secret is so important, it will take at least three days to crack the mechanism, Princess, are you really confident in handing the box to me?"

Lu Yanluo smiled confidently.

"Since I dare to come here, I naturally trust General Wen enough. Besides, Sister Cheng recommended you to me, which is enough to prove your character."

Wen Jie smiled cheerfully, "Okay! Princess, you are as brave as any man. If I am lucky enough to crack the trap, I will definitely make you my friend!"

After giving the box to Wen Jie for research, Lu Yanluo returned to the palace with peace of mind.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I returned to Yunyayuan, an uninvited guest came.

"Didn't the prince order you to move out of the palace within ten days? Why are you still here?"

Yun was angry in her heart, but she had to smile and apologize: "Princess, what are you saying? I was wrong about what happened to Master Huang. Please accept the jade bracelet as my apology."

Lu Yanluo looked at Yun with cold eyes——

The weasel pays a New Year's greeting to the chicken, with ulterior motives!

Yun smiled and said, "Tomorrow is Concubine Lin's flower-viewing banquet. I specially asked for an invitation for the princess. The princess must go and accept my apology!"

Lu Yanluo forced a smile, took the invitation, and rolled her eyes secretly in her heart.

[Old witch, do you think I'm a fool? Would you be so kind as to send me an invitation? ]

[They are deliberately using Concubine Lin to pressure me. This is clearly a Hongmen Banquet! ]

[Okay, I don't have anything to do recently, so I'll play with you guys.]

Chu Xuan: "..."

He came to Yun Yayuan to have a free meal, but as soon as he walked to the door, he heard Lu Yanluo's voice.

He immediately walked in with a serious expression.

"Yun, I have said that you are not allowed to set foot in Yun Yayuan again. Are you turning a deaf ear to my words?"

Yun was dissatisfied: "Your Majesty, I am here to give the princess an invitation..."

"Get out!" Chu Xuan's face showed coldness.

After watching Yun get out, Lu Yanluo threw the invitation to Xiaoran and asked unhappily, "What are you doing here?"

Chu Xuan frowned: "If you don't want to go, you don't have to go."

Lu Yanluo sneered, "Thank you."

[How stupid! Didn't they emphasize Concubine Lin? Who am I to refuse Concubine Lin's invitation?]

[Alas, the prince is indeed the prince, and he speaks in a very arrogant tone! ]

Chu Xuan: “…”

He felt so depressed!

The next day, Concubine Lin held a flower-viewing banquet.

When Lu Yanluo arrived, she found that Princess Ning was also there.

"Princess Ning..." Looking at the figure of Princess Ning, Lu Yanluo frowned.

Seeing this, Xiao Ran asked in a low voice: "Princess, what's wrong?"

Lu Yanluo came back to her senses, "I suddenly remembered some past events - Concubine Yun had a good relationship with Concubine Lin when she was alive, right?"

"Yes." Xiao Ran nodded. "I heard that Concubine Yun and Concubine Lin were like sisters when they were alive. Although they were both consorts of His Majesty, they had a very good relationship."

Lu Yanluo nodded in understanding, and an idea gradually took shape in her mind.

At the emperor's birthday banquet, the secret letter that framed Chu Xuan was written in beautiful handwriting, and it was obvious that it was imitated by a woman.

But Concubine Yun was a concubine in the harem, and her ordinary calligraphy would never be circulated outside the palace.

If one wants to obtain Yun Fei's handwriting, one must be someone who was by her side when she was alive.

Now that Prince Ning and Chu Xuan are at the crossroads of competing for the throne, Lu Yanluo cannot help but become suspicious——

That secret letter was most likely written by Princess Ning!

Lu Yanluo snorted coldly, holding the wine glass and walked to the side of Princess Ning, with an expression of admiration.

"I often hear people say that Princess Ning is an extraordinary talented woman with beautiful handwriting. I have admired her for a long time. I wonder if I can have the honor of seeing Princess Ning's handwriting today?"

Princess Ning panicked when she heard this: "This..."

This is a temptation!

Trying to find out whether it was the letter from Concubine Yun that she forged!

"I……"

Seeing that something was not right, Yun quickly pushed the cup aside and said with a smile, "Yesterday I heard something interesting. Princess Ye actually visited a brothel!"

Lu Yanluo snorted coldly and looked at Yun indifferently.

"Which eye of yours saw me go to a brothel? Did you go to a brothel as well? Or are you, a concubine of the Zhenbei Marquis, secretly monitoring my whereabouts? If that's the case, I'll have to ask my prince if he has offended the Zhenbei Marquis in any way recently."

Yun was choked and speechless, "You...!"

Lu Yanluo didn't even look at Yun, she stood up and left domineeringly.

Seeing this, Concubine Lin did not dare to keep him.

This matter may not seem like a big deal, but if it involves the court, then it will be a big deal.

What is the purpose of the concubine in the Zhenbei Marquis's mansion spying on Princess Ye?

With these few words, Lu Yanluo shifted the blame to the Yun family without any bloodshed.

Concubine Lin whispered to the maid: "Tell someone to follow and find an opportunity..."

"Princess, do you suspect that Princess Ning forged the letter from Concubine Yun?"

Lu Yanluo said calmly: "It's not doubt, it's certainty."

As soon as he finished speaking, several men in black suddenly appeared and surrounded Lu Yanluo and Xiao Ran!

"Who?"

Lu Yanluo protected Xiao Ran and stared coldly at the man in black.

However, just as he was about to take action, a burst of white smoke came!

Lu Yanluo lost consciousness instantly.

When she woke up again, Lu Yanluo had a splitting headache, her whole body was sore, and she didn't even have the strength to speak.

In front of him was a screen with carvings of dragons and paintings of phoenixes, blocking his view.

There is only one person in the palace who can do something to her...

"Where is my princess?"

A frustrated voice suddenly came from behind the screen.

Lu Yanluo's expression changed. It was Chu Xuan!

Then, it was Concubine Lin's voice: "Chu Xuan, as a prince, you are so brave to break into my Zhaoren Palace!"

Lu Yanluo frowned.

What exactly does Concubine Lin want to do?

He tried every possible means to tie himself up and bring himself to Zhaoren Palace, just to let her hear Chu Xuan's furious look?

Chu Xuan was extremely angry: "I will ask again, where is Lu Yanluo?"

Concubine Lin pretended to sigh and smiled, "I don't know either."

"Lu Yanluo came to the palace to attend your banquet, but she disappeared, and you said you didn't know?"

Chu Xuan's voice was as cold as falling into an ice cellar.

But Concubine Lin couldn't hear it. After hearing this, she gently covered her mouth and said, "Since you must know, I'll tell you."

"explain!"

Concubine Lin smiled and said, "The princess came to Zhaoren Palace today, but she disappeared soon after. I sent people to look for her everywhere, but I saw the princess and a strange man kissing and behaving intimately. After I found them, Princess Ye ran away with the man, and I still haven't found her."

Chu Xuan didn't believe Concubine Lin's lies at all. "The secret guards in my palace reported that they saw Lu Yanluo being taken into Zhaoren Palace. I will search the palace today. You can't stop me!"

Upon hearing this, Concubine Lin became furious.

"How dare you! I am the imperial concubine appointed by His Majesty. How dare you, a prince, search the palace without permission?"

The two people in front of the screen were on edge, but it did not affect the quiet behind the screen at all.

Yan Xiwan came to Lu Yanluo with a gloating look on her face, leaned over and whispered, "Lu Yanluo, do you want to see with your own eyes how your cousin denies you and despises you step by step? Today, the Imperial Concubine will grant your wish."

Lu Yanluo rolled her eyes at Yan Xiwan, her heart as calm as water.

She never pays attention to mental illness.

I was too lazy to even curse her in my heart.

Outside the screen, Concubine Lin snorted coldly: "Get out of Zhaoren Palace!"

Seeing that Concubine Lin refused to give in, Chu Xuan was in a state of confusion: "My Lady Concubine, I have gone mad once before. If the princess makes a mistake, I don't mind going mad a second time. Then you can pray for a quick death!"

"How can this be possible!" Concubine Lin was so angry that veins popped out of her forehead: "Chu Xuan, you are really lawless."

Chu Xuan sneered and said nothing more.

From the sound of it, Chu Xuan is leaving?

Lu Yanluo was extremely anxious, but she didn't have any strength in her body and couldn't even move her lips to speak!

She struggled hard, but was held down by Yan Xiwan: "Sister, you'd better behave yourself, otherwise I will tie you up with a rope."

Lu Yanluo glared at her and prayed silently in her heart.

[Chu Xuan! You can't leave! You can't leave me! ]

[I'm here, I'm here, save me! I'm dead if you leave! Concubine Lin and Yan Xiwan will torture me to death! ]

[Why can't you see me through a screen? Woohoo, can I still count on you in this life? ]

Chu Xuan, who was about to leave, was suddenly shocked and stood there in a daze.

Turn quickly and look towards the screen!
