Chapter 83 Can’t afford to lose?



"Zhenzhen, are you okay?" Nangong Yu rushed in and frowned when he saw Ling Xiang there. "Why are you here?"

Ling Xiang didn't even give Nangong Yu an extra glance: "As you can see, Miss Gao is not feeling well. I'll take her back."

If Gao Zhenzhen had said she was not feeling well in the past, Nangong Yu would have thrown his whole heart into her after coming in. Not to mention asking Ling Xiang, he would probably not even notice Ling Xiang.

Gao Zhenzhen was ignored by Nangong Yu for the second time today. She felt aggrieved but dared not show it. She had to force a smile: "Your Highness..."

Nangong Yu helped Gao Zhenzhen sit down: "Why do you look so bad?"

Gao Zhenzhen looked very happy: "Your Highness, I'm fine. Miss Ling is a very good doctor. She has stabilized my condition. Moreover, Miss Ling said that she is confident that she can cure my heart disease."

"Really?" Nangong Yu expressed his doubt.

How could it be such a coincidence that when he was about to deal with the Marquis of Zhenguo Mansion and force Ling Xiang to bleed Zhenzhen to cure her illness, Ling Xiang suddenly became a doctor and was able to cure Zhenzhen's heart disease?

Ling Xiang bowed, revealing the bandage on his wrist. "Something happened at the Zhenguo Marquis' Mansion today, and I'm busy dealing with it. I'm afraid I won't be able to attend classes or treat Miss Gao in the next few days. Goodbye."

Nangong Yu understood that Ling Xiang had already used bloodletting to treat Zhenzhen's illness, and the effect was quite good!

Judging from Zhenzhen's reaction, she probably didn't know that Ling Xiang had bled to save her.

As long as Ling Xiang is willing to save Zhenzhen, he doesn't care about being threatened by her.

"Zhenzhen, have a good rest."

Gao Zhenzhen stopped Nangong Yu who was about to leave: "Your Highness, the missing person in the Marquis Zhenguo Mansion..."

"Don't worry about these things. Just focus on recuperating."

Nangong Yu left a word and immediately went back, calling Chen Long to recall all the people involved in the action and cancel the action. At the same time, he released those people from the Marquis Zhenguo Mansion without anyone noticing.

However, when Chen Long went to release the people, he was shocked to find that all the people from the Marquis of Zhenguo Mansion who were locked in the secret room were gone!

The guards at the Prince of Qin's Palace were so tight, yet someone was able to rescue someone without anyone noticing!

Chen Long was horrified and sent people to seal off the scene while immediately reporting to King Qin.

Nangong Yu was also shocked when he heard the news, and immediately recalled Si Snake and Wu Ma, who were the best at tracking and investigating cases among the twelve shadow guards.

However, Wu Ma searched for a long time but did not find any clues. Even the restrictions were not broken at all. It was as if the people in the secret room disappeared out of thin air.

Nangong Yu sat in the study, feeling more depressed than ever.

After Chen Long came in, he rubbed his brows and asked, "Where's Ling Xiang?"

Chen Long reported: "Miss Ling has returned to the Zhenguo Marquis Mansion. The people in her mansion have not returned. It is unlikely that she did it. Besides, the Zhenguo Marquis Mansion does not have the strength to do so."

"In your opinion, who has this ability?"

Chen Long shook his head. "Ever since the disappearance of the Marquis of Zhenguo, the Zhenguo Mansion has declined. Those who were once close to them have gradually distanced themselves from them. No one would risk offending the Qin Palace to help them. Moreover, no matter how powerful the other party is, even if he can enter the secret room without anyone noticing, he can't take those mortals away quietly."

Nangong Yu frowned, then suddenly thought of something and stood up abruptly: "Seal off the palace! Go to the secret room!"

Xuanyuan Qi just finished class and saw Nangong Yu in a hurry. He gloated from a distance:

"Cousin, why didn't you come to class this afternoon? Are you too embarrassed to lose?"

Nangong Yu ignored him completely and hurried back to the secret room, using his spiritual power to search every inch of the secret room.

"What are you doing in such a hurry?" Xuanyuan Qi joined in the fun as usual, but was stopped by Chen Long and his men: "Your Highness, please stop."

Xuanyuan Qi rolled his eyes, leaned against the tree trunk, and took out a piece of grass from somewhere and put it in his mouth: "You guys continue, don't worry about me."

There was indeed no one in the secret room. Nangong Yu asked the guard, "How many times was the secret room opened today? How long did each time last? Who was there at the time? Was there anything unusual?"

The guard immediately reported carefully: "The secret room has only been opened three times today. The first time was this morning, when Lord Chen Long ordered us to open it. It continues... The second time was Lord Wu Ma... The third time is now."

"Your Highness, is there anything wrong?" Chen Long asked in a voice transmission.

"Invisible." Nangong Yu said in a voice transmission.

With just two words, Chen Long quickly understood what the prince meant.

Indeed, no matter how powerful a person is, even if it is the Spirit Lord himself, it is impossible to take away so many mortals quietly, not to mention that they have been fed sleeping pills and have no ability to move.

But if a person carries a magic weapon of invisibility, then he can enter the secret room when it is opened, and then take everyone out invisibly when the secret room opens again.

Chen Long pointed out the loophole through voice transmission: "This is impossible. There was no one in the secret room when it was first opened today..."

Nangong Yu transmitted a message: "So, that person should have come in last night, or in other words, that person is among those who were captured..."

"There may not even be a magic weapon of invisibility in the entire capital, so how could these maids and guards have it?" Chen Long was puzzled. "As for coming in with these maids and guards last night, that's even more impossible. How could he have predicted that we would arrest someone last night and deploy in advance?"

No matter which situation it is, it points to one fact - it will be difficult to take action against the Marquis of Zhenguo Mansion in the future.

Nangong Yu closed his eyes and said, "Tell Zishu to add a formation to the secret room to break the invisibility."

At this moment, the guard came hurriedly to report: "Your Highness, several people were found by the lotus pond, and one of them seems to be Miss Ling's maid."

Nangong Yu hurried over.

"Miss Ling's maid? Didn't Miss Ling bring her maid today?" Xuanyuan Qi followed out of curiosity.

Nangong Yu stopped and looked at Xuanyuan Qi with disdain: "Go back after class. I won't take care of dinner."

"You don't care about my meals, but how can the royal aunt not care about her nephew's meals? It's rare to see you so anxious in your own home. If I leave like this, I will definitely not be able to sleep for the next few days." Xuanyuan Qi refused to leave and followed him shamelessly.

Nangong Yu was too lazy to pay attention to Xuanyuan Qi, this dog-skin plaster, and rushed to the lotus pond, where he saw the people he had captured.

Xiaoyu rubbed her dizzy head and said, "I really am a maid in the Marquis Zhenguo Mansion. Please let us go back."

"Why are you here?" Nangong Yu asked coldly.

When Xiaoyu saw Nangong Yu, she immediately smiled: "Future son-in-law, why are you here? Where is this?"

Xuanyuan Qi's mouth twitched: "This is the home of your future son-in-law."

"Ah?" Xiaoyu was surprised. "How did we end up in the Prince Qin's Mansion?"
