It was gloomy within the Champion Marquis residence today and everyone kept quiet out of fear.
Marquiss beloved Lady Marquis was actually silently kidnapped out of the residence under everyones eyes and no one knew where she had gone.
The maids in the Ladys yard were knocked out with medicine by a servant by Marquiss side.
When everyone realized, it was too late and the yard was full of unconscious people laying on the ground.
Only the Lady was nowhere in sight.
Marquiss elder brother State Duke Residences Crown Prince Yu Xingyong, and Prince Yan, Cheng Shizhao, rushed to the Marquiss study one after the other without even waiting for the servants to report their arrivals.
The moment Chen Shizhao walked in, he said, Xingzhi, dont worry.
Yet, he looked up to see the two brothers, Yu Xingyong and Yu Xingzhi, both raising their heads to look at him.
Yu Xingzhi had an ashen but calm look on his face, not nervous as Chen Shizhao had expected him to be.
Cheng Shizhao coughed and sat down, feeling as if he was the one who cant be calm.
Right now, he was restless and worried as if a fire was burning in his heart.
Yu Xingzhi said in a gloomy tone, Xiaoxiao is in trouble. I cant panic because if I do, what will happen to her? But right now, we cant delay this matter. Cousin and elder brother, please calm down and help me come up with a plan.
Yu Xingyong knitted his eyebrows and said to Juanzi, Describe what happened in detail.
They had just splashed her with cold water, waking Juanzi up. She reluctantly struggled to get up, her hair still covered in water droplets.
Her eyes were red and she clutched her sleeves with her plump hands.
But she knew that time was urgent, so she held in the urge to cry and described what happened in detail again.
Yu Xingzhi took out a letter and placed it on the table. Everyone looked to see a few rows of words.
For Champion Marquis, Yu Xingzhi: At around 3:45pm, I want to invite you to the Shili Pavilion outside the city to admire the scenery. We havent seen each other for countless years and I missed you. Im afraid that you might not come, so I especially invited the Lady to come first. If youre late by 15 minutes, I will chop off one of Ladys shoulders and if youre late by 30 minutes, Ill chop off two of her legs. If you want to save your Lady, come alone. Dont forget.
From your brother, Bingren.
Cheng Shizhao pounded the table and said, Yu Tong has followed you for countless years and I wouldve never thought he was the spy Lin Family had placed at our side.
Yu Xingyong waved his hands and dismissed Juanzi, saying, I didnt expect Lin Family to be so sinister and cruel. After so many years of planning, they suddenly made this move, clearly catching us off guard. From what my people have told me, they were quick and swift, with countless people. In addition, there is a spy within the residence and there are elites outside the residence helping out. After everything had gone smoothly, they rapidly left the city. This was not like was the work of Lin Bingren, this runaway. It seemed like Qidan people were behind this. Oh right, fifth brother, does Yu Tong know about Xiaoxiaos background?
Ive been very careful about this. Besides my brothers and father, no one knows that Xiaoxiao comes from Lin residence. Even Yu Tong thinks that Xiaoxiao was just a woman I met out of coincidence.
Cheng Shizhao said, If this was the work of Lin Bingren, he mustve been aiming for revenge. It might be difficult for us. But if Qidan people were behind this, they mustve another motive and we might have a chance of turning the tables around.
Were pressed on time and in order to keep Xiaoxiao safe, Ill head over first.
You must not!
Yu Xingyong and Cheng Shizhao both stopped him.
Yu Xingyong said, Fifth brother, dont act out of impulsive. We need to carefully create a plan. Elder brother, I
