Zhao Yanzhen put his hand on his chin and fell into thinking while listening to Jiang Nianjiao talking about the situation at that time.
When he heard that Su Zhirou disappeared at night from the Xu family, but Jiang Nianjiao did not question Miss Xu, he could not help but whisper, "How do you know Miss Xu is not lying?"
Jiang Nianjiao was momentarily stuck as Zhao Yanzhen looked at him with burning eyes.
There was no way she could tell Zhao Yanzhen that she had a system, right? Did she use the truth serum given by the system?
If you tell him this, I don't know what his reaction will be.
Jiang Nianjiao's mind was filled with these thoughts, while her mind was frantically sending dangerous warning signals!
The system, which is accustomed to pretending to be dead, is now sitting up in shock like an old child in a sick state.
"Host! I don't want to talk about this! If you tell him about my existence, you will be in absolute danger!"
The sound of the system was accompanied by the warning sound in his head, which made Jiang Nianjiao almost run away.
"It's so annoying! Stop arguing! I have my own rules!" Jiang Nianjiao couldn't help but angrily reprimanded.
He didn't expect that these words came out of her mouth.
The system stopped talking after being reprimanded like this.
However, Jiang Nianjiao also realized that she had just spoken out her words again, and that she was facing Zhao Yanzhen at the moment. It looked like she was scolding Zhao Yanzhen.
This is a thigh. She hasn't fully hugged it yet, so she doesn't want to scold it like this.
Therefore, Jiang Nianjiao said with a flattering giggle, "Hey, I'm not scolding you, I'm just..."
Before Jiang Nianjiao could think of words, Zhao Yanzhen chuckled. His clear peach blossom eyes were fixed on Jiang Nianjiao. Although his eyes were very light, his gaze seemed to have covered Jiang Nianjiao from beginning to end. See through them all.
"I know."
Then he didn't ask any further questions about the matter, and instead asked, "How did the Xu family react when they found out that Su Zhirou was missing?"
Seeing that he didn't ask about her state just now, Jiang Nianjiao breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt that her thoughts were lifted.
It always felt like he knew something, but I couldn't ask him yet.
Jiang Nianjiao could only hold back her suspicions and told Zhao Yanzhen about Miss Xu's subsequent sexual manipulations.
Zhao Yanzhen thought for a moment, and then said softly, "Listening to what you said, I don't think the clues are broken. Instead, I feel that Xu Mansion is becoming more suspicious, and people disappeared from Xu Mansion. Even if everything is true as Miss Xu said, the Xu family I don’t know anything. But since the Xu Mansion doesn’t want outsiders to search the mansion, if I were the one who kidnapped Medical Officer Su, I would also think that this palace is the first choice place to hide people.”
"After all, other places have to worry about government raids, but the Xu family doesn't have this worry."
After listening to Zhao Yanzhen's words, Jiang Nianjiao felt like she was pulling away the clouds and seeing the bright moon.
But then she fell into absolute distress again, "But now since the Xu family doesn't want anyone to search the Xu family, they will definitely obstruct it in every possible way, and we have no reason to search the Xu family. If we search the Xu family at this time, the Xu family will If everyone accuses Su Zhirou of escaping from marriage, then Medical Officer Su will be deeply implicated. Not to mention how we will end up if we don't find the person."
"It's really not appropriate to alert the public to this matter, but besides sending people to the Xu Mansion to search openly, don't we have any other options?" Zhao Yanzhen asked with a smile.
After Jiang Nianjiao heard what he said, she just remembered the secret guard. She excitedly clapped her hands and said, "That's right! Why didn't I think of this level?"
Then she excitedly said to Zhao Yanzhen, "Wait for me here while I go find Cui Qiao and Shi San."
"Don't bother them. Cuiqiao doesn't know the topography of Xu Mansion, so it's easy to get lost in it. Although Thirteen knows this, he almost made me lose you a while ago, so I made him suffer some punishment. Now he is afraid that He's still on the sick bed. So it's better to send my king's secret guards over right now." Zhao Yanzhen said softly.
Jiang Nianjiao didn't have any objections to Zhao Yanzhen's proposal. After all, this mission didn't require her to go and rescue people in person. It was her ability to borrow Zhao Yanzhen's power to find people.
What's more, she and Zhao Yanzhen will be husband and wife in the future. According to the marriage law, if it's not his, it's hers, and what's hers is his.
So by analogy, if he solved this matter, it doesn't mean he solved it himself.
While Jiang Nianjiao was brainwashing herself extremely shamelessly, secret guards suddenly appeared in front of them. These secret guards were like crows in the night, arriving gracefully.
After Zhao Yanzhen issued the order to find people in Xu Mansion, they quickly disappeared into the night like ghosts.
Even Jiang Nianjiao had to sigh that these people might be the real secret guards. After all, these people had obviously been following Zhao Yanzhen today, but she was not aware of it.
While she was sighing, Zhao Yanzhen held Jiang Nianjiao's hand and said softly, "Jiaojiao, it's cold in the corridor at night, let's go back to the banquet first."
Jiang Nianjiao naturally had no objection to this.
But thinking of what Zhao Yanzhen said just now, she couldn't help but ask, "Is Thirteen okay?"
"I can't die." Zhao Yanzhen said quietly.
"But didn't you say you gave me Thirteen? Why are you still overstepping your bounds? If that's the case, then you might as well take Thirteen back." Jiang Nianjiao couldn't help but muttered again.
"I'm angry. Jiaojiao can punish me however you want, but don't get angry with me now, okay? I'll be worried if you get angry." Zhao Yanzhen is used to being gentle in this matter, even in the face of accusations , he will not talk back, but will be beaten and punished.
It's a pity that he is just coaxing. If it really happens next time, he will probably be in a state to dare next time.
But at the moment, Jiang Nianjiao is not stupid enough to continue pursuing this matter.
After all, in terms of strength, I was far behind him.
She smiled slyly and said, "I can punish you however you want, it's your decision."
Zhao Yanzhen smiled helplessly, "That's natural, I just don't know how Jiaojiao plans to punish me."
"Today is the wedding of Prince Liang. His Majesty made an exception and lifted the city's curfew. I thought it would be very lively outside at this time. How about I punish you and accompany me to go out for fun?" Jiang Nianjiao suggested with a smile.
Before Zhao Yanzhen said yes, Jiang Nianjiao lamented to herself again, "Speaking of which, Your Highness and I are about to get married, but we haven't even had a serious date yet."
After hearing what she said, even though Zhao Yanzhen had some concerns, he could only accept it now.
However, considering that Jiang Nianjiao came with Jiang Fang, Zhao Yanzhen only asked someone to inform Jiang Fang of the matter before taking Jiang Nianjiao out of Prince Liang's Mansion. Then he took Jiang Nianjiao out of Prince Liang's Mansion.
The outside of Prince Liang's Mansion was as lively as expected. Under the colorful lanterns outside the mansion, vendors along the road were selling various small items. Even though the crowds were crowded, the order in the capital was still orderly, but today's There were obviously more patrol soldiers than in the past, and there were also some plainclothes warriors among the crowd. Therefore, even though it was a night market, few thieves dared to hang around here openly.
Jiang Nianjiao and Zhao Yanzhen walked and looked at each other, perhaps worried about getting lost in the crowd. Zhao Yanzhen always held Jiang Nianjiao's hand.
Such a handsome couple naturally stood out when walking among the crowd. Whenever Jiang Nianjiao's eyes met those of the stall owners, they would enthusiastically urge Jiang Nianjiao to come over and take a look.
Therefore, she didn't go very far along the way, but she bought a lot of things. Fortunately, there were guards and maids following them all the way, so the two of them were not too embarrassed.
"Master, madam, why don't you come to the little old man's stall and have a look? This is the concentric knot of Prince Liang's palace. This Miss Xu family and Prince Liang are connected because of this concentric knot. Why don't you two buy a pair?" Really? This is a good thing. As long as you two hang this thing on the marriage tree on Xilai Street in the east of the city, your couple will be in love for a long time in the future." An old man who set up a stall to sell some festive things was greeting him with a hunched waist. Two people.
Jiang Nianjiao was not interested in this. After all, Prince Liang's marriage today was just a compromise.
As for the Xu daughter, she didn't want this marriage.
It is said that the two of them came here to buy a concentric knot. Isn't this false propaganda?
However, she was not interested, but Zhao Yanzhen took the initiative and walked over. Jiang Nianjiao did not expect that Zhao Yanzhen would be interested in such a thing.
But since he was serious, Jiang Nianjiao naturally had to accompany him.
This little old man
Seeing that the rhetoric he just said attracted customers, he couldn't help shouting his words to the passers-by on the street.
And people all have a herd mentality. Seeing that there were already people choosing in front of this old man's stall, others followed and started picking.
However, there are those who are arrogant while choosing, and deliberately ask, "Old man, are you telling the truth? Don't use it to trick us. General Xu's daughter and Prince Liang can come to you to buy red thread."
When the old man heard this, he patted his chest and said, "I can lie to you. A few days ago, the Xu family's carriage and horses stopped in front of my stall. At that time, Miss Xu's family and Prince Liang bought a concentric knot from me."
Seeing him so confidently swearing, the other person just smiled and said, "It's not just what you say. We can't go to the palace to verify it."
The old man was also aroused by others, and he couldn't help but said loudly, "If you don't believe it, I still have the jade pendant that Miss Xu family kept here at that time."
After saying this, the old man took out a cabbage jade Ruyi accessory from his small box and showed it to everyone. But when others wanted to touch the jade pendant, the old man immediately took the thing very preciously. Put it back in the box. "Don't touch this thing. I have to keep it as a family heirloom in the future."
After listening to the old man's words, everyone was a little skeptical, but the business in front of the old man's stall was getting more and more prosperous. ..
Because of this, Zhao Yanzhen only picked two concentric knots and then pulled Jiang Nianjiao away from here.
When the two came out, Zhao Yanzhen said to Jiang Niangjiao, "Why don't we hang this concentric knot on the marriage tree in the east of the nearby city?"
