I don’t know whether it was because the blow was too powerful, or whether it just hit the back of Shu San’s weakest part of the head. Shu San froze, and then he pinched Wang Ning’an’s hand and dropped it weakly, his body paralyzed.

On Wang Ning'an.

"Let go, let Wang Ningan go, let him go."

Li Xiangcheng didn't care about this. He held the torch and continued to beat Shu San on the back of the head with all his might.

"That's enough, that's enough, stop." Wang Ning'an said weakly. Being strangled by someone was really uncomfortable, and it made him feel like he was seeing the God of Death.

When Li Xiangcheng heard Wang Ning'an's voice, he immediately threw away the torch, then pushed Shu San's body away with all his strength. Seeing Wang Ning'an panting, he immediately laid down on him and cried bitterly.

"Great, you're okay, wuwu..."

Wang Ning'an patted the other person's back helplessly and said slowly: "Xiangcheng, now is not the time to cry. Help me up. We have to escape before the other kidnapper comes back."

Li Xiangcheng stopped crying and helped Wang Ningan up. Seeing Shu San lying on the ground, he asked, "What should he do?"

Wang Ning'an thought for a while and said: "Drag him out, tie him up and hide him. Let's leave quickly. This place is about to be burned down by fire."

"good."

Li Xiangcheng nodded and said, now Wang Ning'an will do whatever he says, and she won't have any questions.

The two of them struggled to carry Shu San out of the ruined temple, and immediately saw a group of people arriving, led by Wang Cheng.

"Master."

When Wang Cheng saw Wang Ning'an, he immediately rushed forward and helped Wang Ning'an. He was very worried when he saw that Wang Ning'an's nose was bruised and his face was swollen after being beaten.

"Master, what's wrong with you? You're worried about me."

When Wang Ning'an and Li Xiangcheng saw Wang Cheng and the people behind him, they all breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the ground.

Wang Ning'an looked at Wang Cheng and cursed angrily: "Damn it, why did you come to save me so late?"

Wang Cheng said awkwardly: "Master, please calm down." Then he said softly: "Master, there are so many subordinates behind me, please give me some face."

Wang Ning'an glanced at the person behind Wang Cheng and said: "Yes, the development is good. Next time, the news will be better, so I will suffer less."

Wang Cheng said aggrievedly: "Master, I was already very quick, but I mobilized everyone to inquire about you, and finally found out that you had been kidnapped and left the city. But the city is so big outside that it is difficult for us to find you.

Thanks to the young master for being smart and using cigarettes to remind us, otherwise I would have had to search for a long time to find you, young master."

Li Xiangcheng couldn't help but ask: "Ning'an, did you set the fire to notify them to rescue us?"

"There is such a purpose. Let's not talk anymore. Let's go back quickly. Chang'an is probably in chaos." Wang Ning'an said.

"Yes, young master." Wang Cheng stood up and looked behind him

The people yelled: "What are you doing standing still? Why don't you come over quickly to see the young master and take him back to Chang'an."

The people behind Wang Cheng all came over and were attentive, calling him "young master" in many directions.

Wang Ning'an smiled at them and nodded as a greeting, and then asked them to get ready and return to Chang'an.

However, Li Xiangcheng became like an irrelevant person and was pushed to the periphery, which made her very angry. Just as she was about to yell loudly, Wang Ning'an held her hand.

"It's time to go back." Wang Ning'an smiled.

"Yeah." Li Xiangcheng nodded with a blushing face.

Seeing this, Wang Cheng admired Wang Ning'an in his heart. He even chased the princess. It seemed that it wouldn't take long for the young master to become the consort.

Wang Cheng took Shu San away as well, he was still useful.

In Chang'an City, Mrs. Zhang was very excited when she heard the news that Wang Ning'an had been kidnapped. She always wanted to go out and kidnap Wang Ning'an herself, but she found that the whole city was searching for Wang Ning'an, so she did not dare to go out.

Especially after learning that there was her Lu family's unique mark outside the gate, she was even more ecstatic, but she endured it.

She was not afraid that Zhang Wenjin would not let her leave the house, but now that the whole city was searching for him, she did not dare to take any action.

If Zhang Wenjin knew about this matter, she had no doubt that Zhang Wenjin would be the first to betray him. In addition, the Lu family should not let anyone know about this matter, otherwise her good days would be over.

That day, she passed the news to her father in the Lu family, but she was severely scolded by her father.

This made her angry and resentful, so she finally paid her confidant to hire someone to help kidnap Wang Ning'an, and reminded the other party that safety was the priority and there was no time limit.

She waited like this for more than a month, and the good news finally came. She was not afraid that the kidnappers would tear her away, nor was she afraid that the kidnappers would ask her for payment. She was most afraid of the woman in the house.

Others may not be able to guess it, but she can definitely guess it. She has never beaten her once since she was a child.

"Madam, someone wants to see you and says they are from your mother's family." A servant came to report.

Mrs. Zhang frowned, turned to a confidant and said, "Go and invite him in."

"Yes." The confidant nodded.

The person who came to see Zhang was the burly man who kidnapped Wang Ning'an. When he saw Zhang's confidant, he almost blurted out, but fortunately his confidant stopped him with his eyes.

The confidant nodded to the burly man without realizing it and said, "Follow me."

"yes."

The burly man followed his confidants and met Mr. Zhang.

The confidant said: "She is my wife and your real buyer."

The burly man cupped his hands and said, "I've met Madam before."

Mrs. Zhang nodded and said, "I know your origins. I hope you can hide her, then find a corpse and pretend to be her, so that people will misunderstand that he is dead."

"I'm afraid this is inappropriate. Madam should know that this matter has become a big deal. Today I won't

Making a decision, I'm afraid..."

"I will add another 10,000 guan. When the matter is completed, I will give you another 10,000 guan and an additional hundred acres of fertile land." Zhang interrupted the burly man's words directly.

The burly man swallowed his saliva, shook his head with difficulty, and said, "No, madam, I can't agree to this."

"Twenty thousand guan."

"It's not a question of money," said the burly man, "It's just that these two boys have really big backgrounds. Now the whole city is in a turmoil about whether to kill or let go. Just based on my wife's words, our brothers took the money and left Chang'an."

Zhang sneered and said: "Since you also know that this incident has caused a storm in the city, you can't kill them. Besides, I asked you to use corpses to pretend to be them, just to settle the matter."

"Please give me some advice, madam."

Zhang said coldly: "You find two corpses, put on their clothes and all personal belongings, and then find a place to set fire to the corpses. Do you think anyone else can recognize the true identity of the corpses?"

When the burly man heard that this strategy was feasible, he nodded and said: "This strategy is feasible, I will make arrangements now. But madam, my brothers and I have to eat."

Mrs. Zhang smiled and said: "Yihong, give him a hundred guans."

"No, I want 10,000 gu. This is a deposit. When everything is done, I will come to see my wife and give you the remaining 40,000 gu." The burly lion said loudly.

"You are talking like a lion," Yihong said angrily.

The burly man just rolled his eyes at Yihong, and then looked at Mrs. Zhang with a smile. As long as Mrs. Zhang agrees, the maid will treat his words as farts.

Zhang's face darkened, but she quickly recovered and said in a deep voice: "Okay, I promise you, but I still need you to do one thing for me."

"What happened?"

"I hope as few people know about this as possible, understand?" Zhang's cold voice sounded again.

The burly man was not easy to mess with. As soon as he heard Zhang's words, he understood the meaning behind the other party's words and said with a sullen face: "No problem, but how much money does the lady plan to pay for this life."

"I'll give you one hundred thousand yuan, don't have any trouble." Zhang directly gave a reason that the burly man could not refuse.

The burly man's breathing became very rapid. He was really frightened by Zhang's price, and at the same time he showed greed and cruelty.

"Okay, I agree, but I have to take half of it first."

"Yihong, you take care of this matter."

"Yes, ma'am."

Yihong said respectfully, and then took the burly man down to collect the money. Ten thousand guan was a lot, and an ox cart could pull ten ox carts, so Zhang paid the burly man the ten thousand guan in gold instead of copper coins.

The burly man happily left the Zhang Mansion with the gold, but he never thought that he had already embarked on the road to hell.
