Of course, Luo Shuyu didn't make the decision to leave with the other party impulsively.
First, he knew that in addition to the dark guards around him, Li Mingjin also sent people to follow him at any time and regularly reported his movements to Li Mingjin; secondly, the intentions of the people in the bookstore were obvious, because they knew in advance that he was going to the bookstore, even if the dark ten could Taking him to break through will also hurt both sides, and he may be in a predicament, so he would rather go with the other party than make trouble.
During the process of being sent to the carriage, Luo Shuyu calmly speculated on who wanted to kidnap him.
The spy from the neighboring country is still the prince of the capital or someone sent by the fourth prince.
Blindfolded, Luo Shuyu guessed their current position according to the direction of his body swing. They did not leave the city, but moved toward the south of the city.
The south of the city is a relatively wealthy area of Gucheng, and the Third Prince's Mansion is also in this direction. It seems that the other party has a clear mind, knowing what the most dangerous place is is the safest place.
The man who kidnapped him was a bit not only high-profile, but also smart.
No matter who it is, Luo Shuyu wants to know what the other party's purpose is.
The carriage stopped, Luo Shuyu was helped off the carriage, the other party respected Luo Shuyu, and the word "please" was used throughout.
This is a newly built house in the south of the city.
After Li Mingjin and Luo Shuyu came to Gucheng, the population has been increasing every year, and many wealthy households from other places are also willing to come to Gucheng for development. When there are more people, the houses are naturally not enough to live in, so some people buy land and build their own houses. They are all newly built, even the roads are newly built, and many uninhabited houses have been bought and then renovated. Now they are filled with people and full of life.
Probably because the little stories about Li Mingjin and Luo Shuyu in the capital were spread to Gucheng, and the people wanted to be closer to them, so they bought nearby houses. However, those who live here are either rich or rich.
The same goes for the people who want to bring Luo Shuyu here.
Who is it?
Luo Shuyu was puzzled.
He was placed in the main hall, and a servant brought first-class new tea, Luo Shuyu smelled it, and it was very fragrant. However, in an unknown land, he chose not to drink.
After a while, an elegant figure appeared in front of Luo Shuyu.
He is an unbelievably beautiful boy. He wears the most popular summer clothes these days. He uses the most refreshing spices this summer. Even the hairpins are new styles from the best shop in Gucheng today, and all this Luo Shuyu felt particularly familiar.
Because he has it all.
The handsomely dressed son bowed to Luo Shuyu Yingying: "Zhou Ping has seen the third prince concubine, you are as calm as I imagined."
Luo Shuyu looked at him blankly: "I don't know you."
Zhou Ping nodded: "Of course, the third prince has never met me, but I have known you for a long time."
Luo Shuyu thought about his surname, and suddenly said: "Your surname is Zhou, you are from Zhou."
Last time he was kidnapped by Zhou Guo's fake son, and this time he was also kidnapped by Zhou Guo's son.
Zhou Ping's eyes were full of praise: "You are as smart as the rumors say. You must already know who my brother is."
Luo Shuyu: "Princess Jiayang is your brother."
Zhou Ping said with a smile: "Yes, his name is Zhou Jia, and Princess Jiayang was only used by my father who asked him to marry him. I am curious how you persuaded him to let you go. It is said that you had already was held hostage by him."
Luo Shuyu: "He didn't have a way out at the time, and only by letting go of me was a way out."
Zhou Ping lifted a strand of hair that fell from his forehead: "But he was finally taken away by you."
Luo Shuyu said with reason and reason: "He assassinated the current prince. Whether it is an ordinary person or a prince of another country, he should be punished for committing murder in the Daxia Kingdom. Does Zhou Gongzi think it is reasonable?"
Zhou Ping nodded: "There is no contradiction in what you said, but, he is my brother after all. I want to take him back to the Zhou Kingdom. I think the third prince and concubine can help me."
Luo Shuyu gave him a small smile: "Master Zhou, I'm in Gucheng now, and Zhou Jia was arrested in the capital. You must know that the distance between the capital and Gucheng is not short, how can I help you."
Zhou Ping: "Then I don't care, I know that you and the third prince are in love with each other. You are imprisoned here by me, and he will find a way to rescue my brother. Besides, I have something that even your Daxia Emperor doesn't know about. The news, I think if this news reaches his ears, how will he deal with the third prince?"
Luo Shuyu asked him, "What news?"
Zhou Ping poured tea for himself and said, "We Zhou Guo have always had business dealings with Guiyan State-owned jade mine, but in the past year, this jade mine business has suddenly stopped, and they can no longer supply me. The third prince and concubine must know that it is What's the matter?"
Luo Shuyu asked him: "The business between your two countries can't go on, why ask me, who only cares about the backyard?"
Zhou Ping: "Don't be modest, I have also stayed in Gucheng for a while, and it is not necessarily better than any city in Daxia. I have also inquired about your deeds. The person who lives in the house, there will be no one who really manages the house."
Luo Shuyu: "Oh?" It seems that Zhou Ping pays a lot of attention to him. No matter how he looks at his outfit today, everything is a tribute to him, "Thank you for your compliment."
Zhou Ping: "I admire you very much. If we were in our country, we would have become very good friends."
Luo Shuyu: "I remember Princess Jiayang also told me that you Zhou Kingdom is very tolerant to your son, and I appreciate your folk customs very much."
Appreciation is appreciation, and good places can learn from them, but it does not mean that they can join forces.
Zhou Ping reacted and Luo Shuyu almost changed the topic: "I was almost surrounded by you. The jade mine of the Hachi family was taken into the bag by the third prince."
Luo Shuyu naturally won't tell him the truth: "Zhou Gongzi, you want to discuss with me how to buy clothes, maybe I can discuss it with you, but you are asking about the matter between the two countries, and it is the business between you Zhou Kingdom and Guiyan Kingdom. , I really don't know."
Zhou Ping: "It doesn't matter, I have already sent someone to deliver the letter to the third prince. I think he will tell me the truth. As long as you are here, he will definitely say, I am not in a hurry, but I just want to aggrieve the third prince and concubine for staying here for a few days. guest."
Luo Shuyu had confidence in Li Mingjin, but looked at Zhou Ping calmly.
I have to say that Zhou's sons are very courageous and dare to act, but the way is not right.
Using him to threaten Li Mingjin is a wrong first step.
Is kidnapping a ancestral secret of the Zhou Kingdom? Compared with the actions of the two young princes, the second prince of the Zhou Kingdom was more euphemistic. He also knew that he could find the fourth prince through a roundabout way. Of course, if Shen Mingyun hadn't gotten fat and gave birth to two children for the fourth prince, he must have His secret is to hook up with a married man.
Zhou Guoren's way of doing things is really different.
Zhou Ping acted recklessly. He forgot who Gucheng belonged to. When Luo Shuyu disappeared, someone followed the suspicious carriage. Luo Shuyu just said a few words to Zhou Ping, and the new house was surrounded by soldiers brought by Li Mingjin. Not even a mosquito can fly out.
Zhou Ping, who was about to say a few more words to Luo Shuyu, just got up when his guard ran over to report the situation outside to him.
When Luo Shuyu saw the change in their expressions, she knew what was going on.
Li Mingjin has come.
Zhou Ping pretended to be calm and said, "As expected of the third prince who beat the Ghost Yan Kingdom to pieces, he found this place so quickly."
Luo Shuyu said, "If you let me go back, he won't embarrass you."
Zhou Ping: "That's not necessarily true, but there is one thing I want to tell you, I am quite envious of you, in addition to admiring you, I also admire the third prince, the man I want to marry in my dreams is just like him. ."
Luo Shuyu didn't expect this, this was the first son who said he admired Li Mingjin.
Not knowing whether to laugh or cry, this is to challenge him.
Zhou Ping made people look at Luo Shuyu, but he went to see Li Mingjin in front, with excitement that Luo Shuyu had never seen before.
Emotional and angry, he is a man of temperament, but unfortunately, he is a native of Zhou.
As soon as Zhou Ping went out, Luo Shuyu heard muffled noises from outside.
After a while, Li Mingjin's tall figure appeared in front of him.
Luo Shuyu ran towards him: "Your Highness."
Li Mingjin hugged him and looked up and down: "Are you injured?"
Luo Shuyu was happy to see him coming, Zhou Ping's excited look flashed in his mind, and said to Li Mingjin, "No, let's go back quickly, don't go to see the person who kidnapped me now."
Li Mingjin finally found someone who was naturally willing to listen to Luo Shuyu: "Okay, let's go back now, let Lin Haiming tie the person back, and you can deal with it." He thought that Luo Shuyu was afraid, after all, this is the second time something has happened, " An Shi did not protect you well, you will be punished!"
An Shi, who was hiding in the dark to protect Luo Shuyu: "..." For the first time, he felt the pain of An San.
At this time, Zhou Ping, who wanted to see Li Mingjin, ran to the door and walked all the way, thinking of a dialogue with Li Mingjin in his mind, but when he ran to the door, he found that it was not Li Mingjin who was blocking the door.
He asked Lin Haiming who was holding the sword: "You are not Li Mingjin, the third prince, what about others?"
Lin Haiming was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, and said without any pity: "Take it."
Zhou Ping: "..."
Although Luo Shuyu was not hurt, the kidnapping existed, and Li Mingjin would never let go of the mastermind.
On the way back, Luo Shuyu explained to Li Mingjin about Zhou Ping's origin and the purpose of his coming to Gucheng.
After returning, Li Mingjin said: "His purpose is not to find Zhou Jia, but the jade mine of Guiyan Kingdom."
Luo Shuyu: "Those spies are his people?"
Li Mingjin shook his head: "Not necessarily, Zhou Ping is so high-profile, he is too detached, and he doesn't seem like a person who can do meticulous work."
Luo Shuyu: "That means you haven't found the mastermind of those spies?"
Li Mingjin: "Well, but it's nothing more than some people." He looked at Luo Shuyu worriedly, "I'll bring more people when I go out in the future."
Luo Shuyu smiled: "Don't be nervous, Your Highness, this time is just an accident, the city is still very safe."
Li Mingjin: "Yu'er, it's not safe in the city now, and the enemy's meticulous work has been infiltrated."
Luo Shuyu: "Then we can't make a living because of these meticulous efforts."
Li Mingjin is also concerned and confused: "Then let's arrange the security in the city."
Luo Shuyu: "Well, Your Highness, do you think Zhou Ping will really stab the matter of our acquisition of the jade mine to the emperor?" He was a little worried about this now.
This time, it was Luo Shuyu's turn to be upset.
On this issue, Li Mingjin is not worried: "He has no evidence, and the second is that the father can't judge? He would rather believe an unproven rumor than a son who he has always felt has no scheming?"
Speaking of lack of scheming, Luo Shuyu laughed. Which royal-born child has no scheming.
However, in the eyes of Emperor Tiansheng, Li Mingjin and Luo Shuyu are indeed relatively simple. Their images are still different from other princes, but they can also be used. Before, Concubine Mei had not joined, but now she has a plan to "replace others" He has won the trust of Emperor Tiansheng.
Even if Emperor Tiansheng had doubts, so what, there was no evidence, and it was reasonable for any prince not to hide something to save his life, and this jade mine belonged to Guiyan Kingdom, not Daxia, Tiansheng had no reason to blame Li Mingjin.
However, Zhou Ping's appearance gave Li Mingjin and Luo Shuyu a wake-up call.
It is not that no one knows what they do, as long as it is related to interests, it will be known to others.
Maybe they have stayed in Gucheng for a long time, some are too comfortable, and they have forgotten the dangers of outsiders. They have to think about danger in peace, and can't live too "safe", they can't adapt to this kind of life, and the future is even more thrilling than the present.
As soon as Luo Shuyu calmed down, she heard that Zhou Ping was caught by Lin Haiming, and now she is being held in secret. The little prince Hachi of Guiyan Kingdom lives next to her.
Li Mingjin didn't have to explain the disappearance of the two to anyone.
They all sneaked into the country of Daxia quietly, and they didn't know how many things would happen when they returned to the country, so it's better to keep them locked up.
Ha Chi is already used to the current life. Zhou Ping has never seen Ha Chi. When he learned that the neighbor of the courtyard is Ha Chi, he was very surprised!
This fat man is actually the Prince of Ghost Swallow. Isn't he a handsome and strong man? Sure enough, the rumors must not be believed!
Zhou Ping was successfully captured, but the spies in Gucheng were still there.
When Li Mingjin and Luo Shuyu were busy spying in Gucheng, the fourth prince who had allied with the second prince of Zhou Kingdom was like a god, and it took half a month to capture the first city.
After that, Emperor Tiansheng added troops to the fourth prince. At this time, the reputation of the fourth prince was unprecedentedly high, and his deeds of suppressing bandits were spread everywhere.
It took less than three months for the occupied cities to be recovered. The Yan family's plans were all in vain, and Prime Minister Yan was taken back to the capital to wait for his release.
In October of the twentieth year of Tiansheng, the fourth prince and Shen Mingyun returned to the capital with the fruits of victory.
In November of the same year, the crown prince was at a disadvantage and surpassed Emperor Tiansheng in terms of clothing, food, and possessions. Not only was he extravagant, but he was also involved in the party for personal gain. Abandoned, no one in the imperial court refuted, and everyone was angrily scolding Yan Cheng for not knowing what to do.
In December of the same year, the abolished prince hanged himself in the Royal Courtyard.
Since then, the Queen and the Empress Dowager recited scriptures every day and worshipped the Buddha devoutly.
Luo Shuyu and Li Mingjin, who were far away in Gucheng, were very sorry. They all knew that the prince must not hang himself. He was a stain on Emperor Tiansheng's life. After the Yan family fell, the prince could not survive.
According to the news given by Concubine Mei, the reason why Emperor Tiansheng did not abolish the queen was because he had already made plans. Emperor Tiansheng would leave with the queen in a hundred years.
As for his mother-in-law, who also participated in all this, she didn't have a good life for a few years.
During the civil strife in Daxia, the civil strife in the Guiyan Kingdom was about to subside, and the eldest prince almost took control of the entire Guiyan Kingdom.
On the 30th day of the new year, Ha Chi, who had been imprisoned for nearly a year, returned to the Kingdom of Ghost Yan.
At this time, Luo Shuyu and Li Mingjin were writing couplets together in the study.
It's just that I don't know how long it will last.
The author has something to say: The third prince: Daughter-in-law~ Today you are a little police officer who was locked up by the underworld prince. You fell in love with me, so you exposed your identity as an undercover agent. I had to lock you up. Abuse your body and your heart, this time you can't run away.
Luo Shuyu: I ran through the window, fell from the eighth floor, and then became paralyzed. You feel guilty for the rest of your life.
Three Princes: …
