Shen Qiao and Shen Zheng were secretly glad that Nan Zhu's words continued.

"Later... the master used smoke to distract the sight and rescued the fourth girl. There was chaos around the float for a while. Some of those people took advantage of the chaos to check the float and found that the fourth girl was missing. They divided into two groups. One group of people Continuing to search for the whereabouts of the fourth girl, another group of people went straight to Yunyang Street."

Yunyang Street...that direction is exactly...

"Zuo Xiangfu."

Xiao Jue's deep voice overlapped with the answer in Shen Qiaochen's heart.

Sure enough, Shen Qiao said secretly.

"Master, that's right." Nan Zhu replied.

"Our people saw with their own eyes that those people entered the gate of Zuo Xiang's Mansion." After a pause, Nan Zhu continued.

"So my subordinates believe that the left prime minister's people took the fourth girl hostage to the float. Their ultimate goal was to expose the fourth girl's identity on the spot after the float reached the end. However, they did not expect that the fourth girl would be rescued by the master during the process."

Hearing Nan Zhu's affirmative answer, Shen Qiaoran was confused, but this did not prevent him from feeling furious that the Prime Minister wanted to hold his sister hostage.

"It's that old man Li Chun?" Shen Qiao Ran said angrily. He turned around and saw Shen Qiao Chen's expression remained unchanged, so he gradually calmed down and said with some doubts:

"But for no reason, why did the left prime minister harm my sister like this?"

He naturally knows who is riding in the floats and parading through the streets every year.

And this year’s float is sitting on this year’s Peach Blossom Fairy, Taoyao.

According to regulations, the Peach Blossom Fairy will parade through the streets for three days for people to watch.

And when it reaches the end point, which is the square in the city, the Peach Blossom Fairy will step off the float and stand on the high platform to pray for people and perform dances.

If in public, the person sitting on the float is Shen Qiaochen, the direct daughter of the Shen family...

Thinking of the consequences this would cause, Shen Qiaoran couldn't help but feel cold in his heart.

Shen Qiaoran has always been simple-minded. At yesterday's palace banquet, he was only worried about his grandmother and Xiao Qiao. Although he was also surprised by His Majesty's canonization of the crown prince, other than that, he didn't think much about anything else. .

Therefore, even though he was angry, he really couldn't understand the behavior of the left prime minister.

But the other people obviously didn't think so, and things were certainly not as simple as they seemed.

After all, Shen Qiaochen spent most of his time recuperating in the mansion, and Zuo Xiang, a high official in the court, would think of kidnapping a little girl of the Shen family for no reason.

The people in the room were all smart people. It seemed that Zuo Xiangfu and Shen Qiaochen had nothing to do with each other, but when they thought about what happened at the palace banquet yesterday, it suddenly became clear.

On the surface, it was just a simple kidnapping, but the deeper impact behind it was well understood by everyone present.

But due to today's drunken Jiangyue, there are many people talking and the walls have ears, so it is not convenient to say it clearly.

Having said this, the room fell into silence.

Xiao Jue, Jiang Fengmian and Shen Qiaochen were all thinking thoughtfully to themselves.

Only Shen Qiaoran is still immersed in anger and fear. Until now, although Xiao Qiao has escaped danger and is sitting safely beside him, he still thinks about what might have happened to his sister if Xiao Jue hadn't appeared tonight. things...

A rare hint of coldness flashed across Shen Qiaoran's handsome young face.

Shen Qiaochen is the youngest sister in their family and the only apple in the Shen family's eye.

After all these years, don't think that he doesn't know the rumors outside.

Others felt that Shen Qiaochen was frail and sick, and the Shen family rarely let her go out. They must have felt that Shen Qiaochen was a burden to the Shen family.

But they don't know that dragons have reverse scales, and if they touch them, they will die.

Shen Qiaochen is the opposite of the Shen family.

Is this the left prime minister?

I would like to see how long a family that has no foundation and can only rely on nepotism to climb up the ladder can continue to prosper.

…

Looking at his own Xiao Qiao with pity, Shen Qiaoran calmed down and secretly decided that this matter needed to be discussed in the long run, and he would discuss it with his grandmother and second brother in detail after returning home.

So what with Zuo Xiangfu, so what with the Queen's legitimate son, His Majesty just punished him as he said.

Li Chun, I have recorded this account.

Although Shen Qiaoran didn't understand the meaning of what Zuo Xiangfu did, he still made a strong note in his heart.

Thinking that although he still lacks the ability to vent his anger for Xiao Qiao himself, his second brother Shen Qiaoqi is the smartest person he has ever met and will definitely find a way to avenge Xiao Qiao.

What's more, he still has his own father.

Although my parents and eldest brother are away from Beijing all year round, Xiao Qiao has been my father's favorite since he was little.

Even if the three brothers were tied together, they wouldn't be as important as Xiao Qiao alone in his father's heart.

Fortunately, my eldest brother sent me a letter last month, saying that I should be able to return to Beijing earlier this year.

If they knew that Xiao Qiao was being held hostage by that old man Li Chun, his father and elder brother would never let him go.

As a scholar, Li Chun's body is not strong enough for his father and eldest brother to beat him even if his whole family is tied together.

Think about it, that scene... I'm really looking forward to it~~

Shen Qiaoran's eyes were bright and dark, and finally a trace of determination flashed through.

…

No matter what Zuo Xiangfu wanted to do, since Xiao Jue came out of nowhere, it was destined to end in failure.

I just don’t know how the left prime minister would react if he knew the plan failed.

And that person in the mansion... I guess tomorrow morning, the Bishui Pavilion will be replaced with a new batch of decorations.

Thinking of the expressions Bai Xiaonian and her daughter would have when they knew that Shen Qiaochen was not as ruined as they expected, Shen Qiaochen immediately felt physically and mentally comfortable.

Even the tea in the cup seems to be more fragrant at this moment.

"...tea?"

Shen Qiaochen suddenly came back to her senses and found that at this moment, a steaming cup of celadon tea cup was brought to her.

Shen Qiaochen blinked and saw the fine celadon tea cup being held by a slender and strong hand.

Looking up from the hand, you can see a wrist with distinct joints, sleeves as rich as ink, and a handsome and dazzling face.

Suddenly, there were fireworks shooting into the sky outside the window.

Through the hot water mist, the narrow phoenix eyes of the young man in black were almost more brilliant than the fireworks behind him.

It seemed that the light in his eyes was too bright, and Shen Qiaochen narrowed his eyes subconsciously.

When she realized what she had done, a feeling of warmth gradually crept up her face.

At this time, a clear chuckle came from my ears, with a hint of boyish naughtiness.

At this moment, a trace of embarrassment flashed through Shen Qiaochen's heart, and she glared angrily at the young man in black next to her. Gradually, even her ears turned red visibly.

Xiao Jue's handsome eyebrows were slightly raised. This was the first time he had seen Shen Qiaochen like this.

The petite girl in black in front of him was staring hard at him with a pair of glazed eyes. Xiao Jue seemed to see a cute and charming Persian cat, baring its teeth and claws at him.
