Chapter 366 It doesn’t sound like a serious place

Now it was Helian Ji's turn to be confused.

"My, my cousin is here to see you." He stammered.

"Master Ji, don't talk nonsense. Your sister and I don't know each other." Qi Xingchen quickly denied it.

"You really didn't see her?" Helian Ji was really anxious now.

"I haven't seen any woman today." Qi Xingchen was helpless.

"If you don't believe me, you can ask my good friend, Han Ze, the son of the Dali Temple Minister. He and I have been enjoying the flowers and drinking wine in this plum garden." He pointed to his companion sitting under the plum tree.

Han, whose name was called, nodded: "Yes, we have never seen a woman."

A Pu, the servant following behind Helian Ji, said in a trembling voice: "Master, is there something wrong with my cousin?"

"Sorry for disturbing you." Helian Ji also guessed this possibility, and hurriedly waved to the two of them and left Kongshan Temple.

"Aaron leads the men to search the mountain, and I will take Pu to find the driver!"

Helian Ji gave the order and immediately took the servant to find the driver who had taken Dongfang Yu up the mountain.

When they arrived at the rickshaw market, they found that the rickshaw driver was gone.

"Where is the coachman who went to Kongshan Temple before?" Helian Ji grabbed the manager and asked.

Manager Zhao saw that he was just a young boy and was about to fool him with a few words, but he saw him take out the token of Prince Liang's palace.

"Think about it first." Helian Ji widened his eyes, very angry.

Don't think he didn't see it. The manager was trying to fool him with lies.

"Yes, young master, I will help you check it now." Manager Zhao hurriedly asked someone to bring the booklet.

All the carriages here are registered uniformly.

Wherever you go, you have to record it.

So they quickly found the driver who took Dong Fangyu to the temple.

"The one who went to Kongshan Temple was Lao Ma. After he got there, he said that the weather was too cold and he didn't want to work today, so he went home to rest." Manager Zhao replied hurriedly.

"Where is his home?" Helian Ji asked again.

Manager Zhao did not dare to hide it and quickly gave out the address.

In order to please him, he even led the way himself.

We soon arrived at Lao Ma’s house.

He bought a large jug of wine and was drinking it happily.

He was startled when he saw Manager Zhao suddenly burst in.

"Master Zhao, what brings you here?"

"It's not me who's looking for you, it's this young master. Young master of Prince Liang's Mansion, just answer whatever he asks you. If you dare to lie, watch out for your life!" Manager Zhao said ferociously.

Helian Ji glanced at him.

The steward has said everything he wanted to say, so what else does he have to say?

"Yes, yes, I dare not hide it." Lao Ma's heart was beating violently in his chest. He suddenly filled a glass of wine, drank it down, and let himself calm down slowly.

"Where is the girl who took your carriage to Kongshan Temple?" Helian Ji went straight to the point.

"I sent her to the temple and then came back. I don't know where she went." Lao Ma rubbed his hands and answered carefully.

"Are you telling the truth?" Helian Ji frowned.

"It's absolutely true, I swear." Lao Ma raised his hand.

"But she is not in the temple." Helian Ji didn't believe what this person said.

He arrived at Kongshan Temple at most fifteen minutes later than Dong Fangyu. How could she have walked away from the temple?

"I don't know about the younger one." Old Ma continued to rub his hands.

Helian Ji couldn't get to the bottom of the matter, so he had to return to the palace.

As the sun was about to set, the guards came down the mountain and said that they had not found Dong Fangyu.

Princess Liang's blame now turned into worry.

"Nothing will happen to Yu'er, right?"

"She deserves what happened. She actually sneaked out of the house without even taking a maid with her." Helian Ji was also very angry.

This cousin is such a worry.

"Why not report to the authorities?" Helian Xiao, the fourth son of Prince Liang, suggested.

"Yes, report to the police. That way more people will be able to search and it will be faster." Helian Ji echoed.

"If she reports it to the authorities and something goes wrong, her reputation as a royal consort will be ruined." Prince Liang glanced at his wife, not knowing what she was planning.

Princess Liang held her forehead, feeling very confused.

Her sister sent her daughter to her, but she failed to take good care of her.

Reputation and fate.

Princess Liang was hesitant for a moment, but finally chose to save her niece's life.

"Report it to the police."

…

Lu Li finally got to eat the braised pork ribs today, which she didn't get to eat that day.

She was happily chewing on marinated bones in the Second Princess's residence when she heard the beeping sound of the melon-eating system.

[Hey, Dong Fangyu is missing? ]

Curious, she clicked on the melon-eating system to check.

[Well, it turns out that I went to Kongshan Temple to look for Qi Xingchen, and I met a black-hearted driver. ]

[The driver thought she was a maid from some family, and seeing her beauty, he had evil intentions and sold her to a kidnapper.]

【Sold for ten taels of silver.】

[Oh, the kidnappers have taken the people out of the city.]

[The kidnapper sold her to Huayanlou in Yanjiao.]

[What is Huayanlou? It seems a bit like the place where Su Jiaoyan was sold before? ]

【Dong Fangyu was sold for another twenty taels of silver.】

[Ah, so she sold it for a total of thirty taels of silver? Quite worthwhile?]

Lu Qi, who was sitting next to her, heard her thoughts clearly.

She was startled.

Huayan Building?

You can tell from the sound of it that it is not a decent place, most likely a brothel.

If a decent girl enters a brothel, her second half of life will be ruined.

Although she hated Dong Fangyu, she couldn't bear to let her suffer such a disaster.

But if Xiaojiu didn't say it, how could she pass the news to Prince Liang's Mansion without making any noise?

After all, Xiaojiu has a melon-eating system, so her little tricks can be easily discovered.

Lu Qi fell into deep thought.

Seeing that they didn't continue eating the braised pork bones, Jiang Heci felt a little uneasy.

Has his craftsmanship deteriorated?

Why don’t the second princess and the ninth princess eat?

Lu Li remembered that Princess Liang had given her mother a beauty cream before, and that she got along well with her mother, so she finally made a decision.

She licked the sauce on her hands and looked at Lu Qi beside her.

"Second sister, let's go to Prince Liang's mansion. I saw Dong Fangyu was kidnapped."

Hearing her words, Lu Qi nodded quickly.

"Okay, let's go now."

Jiang Heci saw this and did not ask any more questions. He quickly stood up and said, "Then I will go back home first. Please be careful."

He is not good at riding a horse, so he should not interfere with the two princesses' business.

"Okay." Lu Qi nodded and carried Lu Li onto the horse.

"My dear brother, the braised bones are delicious. I want to eat them again next time!" Lu Li smiled sweetly at him.

Jiang Heci suddenly felt that today's work was not in vain.

He smiled and said, "Next time, if you want to eat something, Princess Nine will ask someone to tell me."

Lu Li nodded, but before she could say anything, she was taken away by Lu Qi.

The two of them quickly arrived at Prince Liang's Mansion.

"Why are the two princesses here?" Princess Liang received them with red eyes.

Lu Qi made up an excuse, claiming that he heard them report to the police, and when his people came back from outside the city, they saw Dong Fangyu leaving the city in a carriage.

"My guards thought they had seen it wrong. After all, the driver said they were going to Huayanlou, which is a brothel."

When Princess Liang heard this, her face turned pale with fright, and she quickly sent someone to Huayan Tower to pick someone up.

"The two princesses are my benefactors!" Princess Liang bowed deeply to them.

"Princess, there's no need to be so polite." Lu Qi helped her up.

Princess Liang was very ashamed.

The niece had offended two princesses, but the two princesses saved her life regardless of the past grudges.

"Once Yu'er is rescued, I will definitely have her bring valuable gifts and go to the palace in person to thank you two."

"Remember to bring gold with you, I like gold." Lu Li reminded.

As soon as these words were spoken, the originally tense atmosphere was suddenly dissipated.

Princess Liang laughed.

"Don't worry, Ninth Princess. There will be no shortage of gold. Everyone in the world knows that you like gold."

Lu Qi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, while Lu Li nodded with satisfaction.

After they finished their good deed, they returned to the palace.

In the middle of the night, people from the Liang Palace found Dong Fangyu and redeemed her back to the Liang Palace.

When Dong Fangyu saw Princess Liang, he broke down and cried, threw himself into her arms, crying and confessing.

"Aunt, I was wrong. I really know I was wrong. I won't dare to do it again. Wuwuwuwuwuwu."

She was trembling all over, and tears couldn't stop flowing when she thought about what happened today.
