The old wet nurse went in and whispered hello to Huo Shenxiu: "eldest son."
Huo Shenxiu glanced at the door: "What's going on with Dato's wife these days?"
"I still occasionally send people to look for Dr. Xue. But I can't find him. The bodyguard just entered her room, probably to report on the progress of the investigation." After saying this, the old wet nurse raised her head tentatively:
"My eldest son, where is Dr. Xue now?"
Huo Shenxiu's eyes flickered with amusement, and he said calmly, "In a place where she can't find her."
Xue Yan has been missing for a year.
Of course it wasn't that he didn't dare to face Li Manyao and ran away.
Instead, he handed him over to Long Dinghao and placed him under house arrest in a safe place.
Xue Yan is the most critical figure in exposing Li Manyao.
He is a loyal dog beside Li Manyao.
Even if Xue Yan is beaten to death, he will not reveal what Li Manyao did.
Even if all the evidence is found, Xue Yan can still take it down, and Li Manyao will still be unscathed by then.
Therefore, we can only let the two bite each other.
And there is only one way for the two to bite each other -
It consumes the trust the two people have in each other.
So, a year ago, he set up a game.
In this situation, there must be an internal member of the Datuk Palace to help monitor Li Manyao's every move.
He chose the old wet nurse.
He asked the old wet nurse to secretly replace the traditional Chinese medicine Jin Fengtai drank with the dregs of the medicine she drank before, and added raw Sichuan Wu in it, and then deliberately found an opportunity for Li Manyao to find out.
This caused Li Manyao to misunderstand Xue Yan.
Li Manyao was so angry that she called Xue Yan and wanted him to come to Dato's Mansion to explain.
The old wet nurse who was following Li Manyao immediately informed him.
Then, he asked people from the Qinglong Branch of Country M to kidnap Xue Yan on the road, and from then on, he put Xue Yan under house arrest.
Long Dinghao was born in the underworld, and how he could seamlessly put a person under house arrest and make him disappear from the public eye was a daily chore for him.
Therefore, over the past year, even though Li Manyao had great power, it was difficult to find out the whereabouts of Xue Yan.
All in all, Xue Yan has been under house arrest for one year.
Both mentally and physically they were on the verge of collapse.
According to the relationship between Xue Yan and Li Manyao, it takes time for trust to be exhausted.
now--
The time has come.
The heat is just right.
He nodded: "Thank you grandma for believing in me and being willing to help me these past few years."
In the entire Datuk Palace, he doesn't trust anyone.
Just trust the old wet nurse.
The old wet nurse is the nurse of Jinfengtai. She only has Jinfengtai in her eyes. She is absolutely fair. She only serves the good of Datuk House and will not show any partiality.
Moreover, she is also the person who loves Su Mi the most in Datuk Palace.
The old wet nurse is his only spy in Datuk House.
Calling her on weekdays also continues Su Mi’s title - grandma.
The old wet nurse didn't say anything, she just said silently: "I just don't want Dato to have that kind of woman with a heart like a snake... Also, I don't want Miss Su to be wronged."
Four years ago, when Huo Shenxiu was vomiting blood and was hospitalized, the old wet nurse went to the hospital to take care of him. He told her everything about Li Manyao in private, hoping that she could help him.
The old wet nurse couldn't believe that Mrs. Dato could be such a person, but she had to believe it.
She could see the eldest son's feelings for Su Mi.
The eldest son suddenly asked Su Mi to return to China while he stayed to marry Miss Ziya, which was surprising to her.
It turned out to be to avenge his mother.
It turns out that Datuk’s ex-wife Tang Wu in China was killed by Li Manyao.
It turned out that Li Manyao had harmed so many people.
Listening all the way, the old wet nurse was frightened.
Finally, the old man agreed.
Jinfengtai is the size of her breasts.
She couldn't see that kind of woman around Jin Fengtai.
…
After the two of them finished speaking, the old wet nurse left the room.
Huo Shenxiu made a phone call.
Over there, Long Dinghao seemed to understand the purpose of his call, and his bold voice sounded: "Don't worry, I got the bracelet that the second master asked me to steal from Dato's wife."
"She didn't notice it, did she?"
"Don't worry. Datuk's wife casually put the bracelet in the utility room of Datuk's Mansion. I bribed a servant of Datuk's Mansion and took it out. She didn't care about it at first sight.
She probably doesn’t even know that the bracelet is missing now.”
"Okay. Next, I have to work hard for your branch brothers."
"It's a small thing." Long Dinghao sighed again: "I'm afraid Dato's wife didn't expect that Xue Yan, whom she has been looking for for a year, is not abroad at all. In fact, he is near her parents' home. Second Master, you can be considered awesome.
, why would you want to lock him up on the mountain behind the Li family?"
Li Manyao saw that Xue Yan's passport was missing. She searched all over the country but could not find Xue Yan. She also thought that he had lived and studied abroad, so she thought he must have gone abroad.
Therefore, for more than a year, the focus has been on foreign countries.
But it is completely impossible to imagine that Xue Yan is far away in the horizon and right in front of you.
She is being placed under house arrest on the mountain behind the Li family mansion where she lived before she got married!
It is a wild mountain, basically abandoned, usually uninhabited, and there is no administrator.
It was once used as a place for children to play.
Under Huo Shenxiu's wishes, Long Dinghao sent people to build an underground darkroom deep in the mountain.
This year, Xue Yan was banned here.
Huo Shenxiu's eyes deepened and he said calmly: "The most dangerous place is usually the safest. In addition, that mountain has an unusual meaning for Xue Yan, which can make him lose trust in Li Manyao even more."
…
Late at night, Huo Shenxiu took Han Fei on the plane and returned to Tancheng.
It was quiet in Datuk House.
However, outside the mansion, in another area of the city, on the mountain behind the Li family mansion, the moonlight was shining deep in the mountains, quiet, but exuding a gloomy feeling like the end of the world.
Under the thick cover of fallen leaves on the ground, there is a basement door made of steel.
In the basement, under the dim orange light bulb, Xue Yan, whose hair and beard was so long that his face was almost invisible, sat against the wall, his hands and ankles chained, his eyes dull, as if he had no connection with the world.
A year ago, he received a call from Li Manyao. During the call, Li Manyao said nothing and only coldly asked him to go to Dato's Mansion.
He didn't know what she was saying, but he just felt that she treated him differently than usual. On the way there, he was knocked unconscious and when he woke up, he was tied up here.
The people who kidnapped me looked like locals.
Listening to what they meant between the lines, they said it was what Li Manyao meant.
He has done too many shady things for Li Manyao and is Li Manyao's biggest weakness.
The power struggle between Li Manyao and Huo Shenxiu has become increasingly fierce recently. Especially in recent years, almost the entire Jin family has been cannibalized by Huo Shenxiu. She was afraid that Huo Shenxiu would use him as a reason to deal with her, so she sent someone to put him under house arrest here.
He knew that Li Manyao had been secretly fighting for power with Huo Shenxiu in the past few years.
But she didn't expect that she would also be regarded by Li Manyao as a trouble that would affect her fight for power.
He didn't want to believe it, but he had to believe it!
Because this is indeed Li Manyao's usual style.
From childhood to adulthood, those who stood in her way never ended well, and she never got what she wanted!
