Chapter 848, Treasure Address
Looking at the black-clad man carrying someone over the wall, Xiao Yechen indifferently withdrew his gaze, then said to Gao Yuan expressionlessly: "Find a place to bury those two maids."
Gao Yuan lowered his head and quietly carried the two maids away with two other people.
Listening to the unceasing noise in the front yard, Xiao Yechen curled up his lips in a strange sneer.
Gao Fang's eyes were filled with panic, but he managed to calm down. "Master, let's go back quickly. The Crown Prince's wife's secret guards were chosen by the Crown Prince himself. I'm afraid the Third Prince's men won't be able to hold out for long. We can't let him catch us."
Xiao Yechen glanced at Gao Fang and said, "Look at how scared you are. Does Xiao Yeyang dare to kill me?"
Gao Fang smiled bitterly in his heart. The prince might not kill his master, but he and Gao Yuan would die.
Xiao Yechen looked towards the front yard again and said, "Xiao Yeyang, have fun. I hope you can continue to be happy tomorrow." After saying that, he returned to Chenyuan under Gao Fang's worried eyes.
At the same time, in the front yard, under the intentional or unintentional instigation of the third prince, the eldest prince and other princes of the royal palace were still pulling Xiao Yeyang to drink.
In Pingxi Hall, Wang Maner, Guyu and Lixia were busy dealing with various matters after the banquet, with Meilan and Meiju assisting them.
After two quarters of an hour, Meilan frowned when she saw that Daohua had not returned yet, and immediately sent her maid to check on her.
The little maid found her way to the main gate and learned that the Crown Princess had already sent the Wanyan family back. She hurried back to Pingxi Hall to tell Meilan.
Mei Lan realized something was wrong when she heard this, and quickly told Wang Man'er, "The Crown Prince's Consort hasn't returned since she sent Madam Li and the others off."
Wang Man'er's expression changed, and she asked hurriedly, "Which maids were with the young lady today?"
Because she and several other maids, including Guyu and Lixia, were busy helping the young lady take care of things at the banquet and were not with the young lady.
Mei Lan frowned and said, "I've asked, but the two maids who accompanied the Crown Princess to send someone off are nowhere to be found."
Wang Man'er didn't ask any more questions and said quickly, "Take your men and look around the mansion. Remember, don't let anyone know we're looking for the girl. I'm going to the front yard to look for the son-in-law now."
At the city gate, an inconspicuous carriage smoothly left the city gate along with the crowd of people leaving the city. After leaving the city, the carriage rushed outward at a high speed and finally stopped in front of a courtyard.
"Master, do you have any orders? What should be done with this person?"
"My master said to send her to the brothel in the south and let the madam take good care of her. As long as she's not killed, she can do whatever she wants."
"The journey to the south is quite long. If something goes wrong along the way and Xiao Yeyang finds any clues, we will all be dead. Otherwise, we might as well just kill him."
"Do you think I don't want to do this? But the master has ordered me not to kill anyone."
“.”
Daohua woke up to the sound of intermittent talking. Looking at the dim, damp room and the ropes on her hands and feet, she instantly realized her situation.
Taking out a dagger from the space, Daohua quickly cut the rope, rubbed his stiff legs, stood up, lay down at the crack of the door, and looked at the situation outside.
At this moment, the moon was already high in the sky, and in the yard, several strong men in black were eating.
Daohua frowned and looked at the few people. Seeing that they were well-dressed and had swords, she immediately realized that these people were carefully trained secret guards or killers.
She was too careless. She thought she was safe in the palace and never expected that someone would dare to enter the palace and kidnap her.
The first person Daohua thought of was the Jiang family. In the capital, to be honest, she had offended the Jiang family.
Just then, another group of people entered the yard.
These people were all dirty and dressed like people from a security agency. They were pulling several carriages behind them, and each of them had several large boxes on it.
“How could they have dug out so much this time?”
The secret guard who tied the rice flowers obviously knew these people.
"Luckily, we opened up a tomb chamber that hadn't collapsed at all."
"Send the gold, silver and jewelry back to the palace. The Third Prince should be happy."
"Shut up!"
The captain of the secret guards came out of the house and interrupted the speaker with a serious face: "I have told you many times not to mention the master's name outside."
As he spoke, he looked at the people who were tying rice flowers.
"Okay, you've almost finished eating. To avoid any further complications, let's find someone to send them south."
In the room, Daohua heard this. Before she could be shocked that the person who kidnapped her was the third prince, she quickly looked around the room.
Looking at the many empty boxes placed in the room, he thought for a moment and hid in one of them.
As soon as Daohua hid in the box, the door was opened.
"Boss, it's bad, the person ran away!"
The man in black who came in first roared and immediately led everyone in the yard in.
The captain of the secret guards looked at the cut rope on the ground, his brows twisted into a knot. He glanced at the box in the house and squinted his eyes. "We've been in the yard the whole time and haven't seen that person escape. So, she must still be in the house. Search carefully for her."
As soon as the words fell, everyone immediately began to open the boxes one by one to check.
However, all the boxes were opened and no one was found.
The captain of the secret guards personally checked every part of the roof, but also found nothing.
"Damn it! Can people just disappear out of thin air?"
"Boss, what do we do now?"
"Leave a few people to continue searching in the yard, and the rest of you follow me out. You all know Xiao Yeyang's methods. If you want to survive, you must capture him back to me."
In the space, Daohua ate some fruit, then lay on the ground thinking about what she had just heard.
It was actually the Third Prince who sent people to capture her!
Neither Xiao Yeyang nor she had ever offended the Third Prince, and they had no conflict of interest. Why did he arrest her?
Daohua thought of what Xiao Yeyang had told her, that the third prince might have taken refuge with the Queen Mother and the Jiang family, and a look of realization gradually appeared on her face.
The Queen Mother and the Jiang family blamed Xiao Yeyang for the death of Prince Jiang. Now, in order to make Xiao Yeyang unhappy, they have begun to instigate the prince to attack her!
The location was in the palace. She was so arrogant and bold that she admired the emperor for being able to tolerate the Jiang family for so long.
Daohua silently calculated the time, thinking that the third prince's men should have left the house, so she left the space and appeared in the box where she had hidden before.
As soon as he left the space, Daohua's forehead hit the box.
Daohua carefully pushed the box door open a crack and found that she and the box were in a speeding carriage, which was shaking violently.
There were several carriages in front and behind, each with several boxes tied to it.
Seeing the strong men on horseback escorting the carriage on both sides, Daohua remembered the tomb and gold, silver and jewelry they mentioned in the yard, and instantly thought of the treasure that Xiao Yeyang was looking for.
One by one, the fragrant pills were thrown out from the gap in the box and fell silently to the ground.
The carriage galloped for several hours, and at dawn, an abandoned imperial tomb appeared in Daohua's sight.
"You're finally here. We opened another tomb last night. Hurry and move the boxes down to transport the things."
When the strong man came over to move the boxes, Daohua slipped into the space again.
At the same time, under the tracking of Gou Xiaoyi, Xiao Yeyang had already left the city gate with the secret guards. At the same time, Defu, led by Gou Xiaoer, also found the two maids buried in the abandoned courtyard of the palace.
