At three o'clock in the morning, the sun had already risen in the sky, and Luoyang city was bustling with people. Pedestrians were bustling everywhere, and the sounds of hawking were coming and going. It seemed very lively, but to Helan Minzhi's ears, it was a cacophony of noise.
Especially after "fighting" with the three women all night last night, I felt that the sound was so harsh that I wanted to take a knife and kill all the noisy merchants. Of course,
He could only think about it, but he couldn't do it, so he could only take a heavy mouthful of thick phlegm on the ground, cursed a few times in a low voice, bent down, and fell asleep.
The carriage stopped in front of the steps and he casually ordered: "Go to the Imperial City!"
Helan Minzhi actually didn't want to go to the palace at all, just because he really didn't want to listen to Empress Wu's endless nagging. If possible, Helan Minzhi would rather hide in his own house and be in a daze.
This kind of honor seemed to be the ultimate honor to ordinary people, but it was a pity that he had to go. This was because the power of Empress Wu was not something that Helan Minzhi could resist. Therefore, no matter how dissatisfied Helan Minzhi was, he could only go.
I struggled to hold on to my drunken body and got up from the gentle village "early in the morning". It is easy to imagine the intensity of resentment in my heart.
"Unlucky, really damn unlucky!"
Helan Minzhi was dazed in the carriage for a while. The more he thought about it, the more stuffy he became. The more stuffy he became, the more phlegm surged up. When his throat itched, he thought about spitting, so he cursed angrily.
He raised his voice and wanted to spit out as soon as he lifted the curtain of the carriage. But as soon as he opened the small curtain on the left side of the carriage, he immediately realized that something was wrong - the carriage was not on the way to the palace at all!
"You bastard, what path are you taking? Are you seeking death? Not yet..."
Helan Minzhi was so furious that he opened the curtain while yelling curses, rolled up his sleeves, and planned to give the coachman a hard blow. But before he could finish the curse, he suddenly felt a cold light flashing in front of his eyes, and a sharp dagger was already in front of him.
He put it on his neck, and he was so frightened that he trembled and stopped mid-sentence.
"Who are you? Don't, don't mess around..."
Although He Lan Minzhi was domineering between the government and the public, he was actually not very courageous. When he saw the shining dagger, it was so cold and frightening that his legs immediately became weak. When he looked at the man's face, he looked extremely ferocious, which was frightening.
I was so scared that I trembled and stammered nonsense.
"Master Helan, please sit down. Otherwise, I can't guarantee that my hands won't shake. If I accidentally hurt the master, it wouldn't be fun." The visitor grinned sinisterly and held the hand in his hand.
The dagger pressed down gently and teased Helan Minzhi. Then, regardless of how ugly Helan Minzhi's face was, he pushed Helan Minzhi back to his original position with a gentle push from his free left hand.
Immediately afterwards, the figure flashed, and the person also entered the carriage and sat next to Helan Minzhi, while the dagger was still firmly placed on Helan Minzhi's neck.
"Don't be rude. Just tell me how much money you want. As long as a certain family has it, I won't disappoint you." Seeing that the other party didn't kill him immediately, He Lanmin thought that the person who came was just a kidnapper extorting money.
Since he felt at ease, in order to save his life, he quickly expressed his cooperative attitude.
"Shut up and sit still!"
He Lan Minzhi was generous, but unfortunately the other party didn't appreciate it at all. He snorted coldly and scolded He Lan Min angrily. He Lan Minzhi was so frightened that He Lan Minzhi shrank his neck. He didn't dare to say anything anymore and could only sit against the wall of the carriage fearfully.
On the top, his eyes were spinning wildly, obviously planning a way to escape. Unfortunately, the opponent was obviously a veteran, and he never showed any intention of relaxing. The hand holding the dagger was always steady and tight, and He Lan Minzhi was helpless.
But thinking about it, he could only accept his fate with a dejected face.
"get off!"
Just as He Lan Minzhi was anxiously thinking about countermeasures, the carriage stopped at some point. The man next to him saw this, took out a hood from his arms with one hand, and put it on He Lan Minzhi unceremoniously.
On his head, he pressed the dagger and gave a cold scolding.
"A strong man shouldn't do this. A certain family..."
Helan Minzhi was completely frightened this time. He refused to get out of the car and murmured begging for mercy. Unfortunately, the other party ignored him at all. He lifted Helan Minzhi up to his chest with one hand and slipped away without caring.
He jumped out of the carriage and strode into a house, walked all the way through the halls and alleys, and entered a small room in the backyard. He threw Helan Minzhi, who was already as soft as mud, on the ground, and then faced
The famous tall young man standing in front of the window sill with his hands behind his back cupped his hands and said: "Report, I have been brought here."
"Um."
The tall young man did not turn around, but just raised his hand and said something softly. When the fierce-looking man saw this, he didn't say much. He stretched out his hand and pulled off the black hood on He Lanminzhi's head.
He bowed to the tall young man's back and left the room without saying a word.
"I've invited this friend. I wonder what's the point of calling a certain family here?"
Helan Minzhi suddenly saw the light from the darkness, and his eyes were a little uncomfortable. After rubbing it for a while, he could barely see the situation in the room clearly, and saw that the vicious man who kidnapped him before had disappeared.
, feeling a little more at ease, he looked around, finally turned his gaze to the man standing with his back, and hesitantly asked.
The man standing behind him did not respond, but slowly turned around, revealing Zhang Yingting's face. When He Lanmin saw it, his eyes immediately became extremely round, and he screamed as if he had seen a ghost.
Pointing at the person with a trembling finger, he stammered: "You, you, are you Xiaoqi?"
"Cousin, long time no see. How is this?"
The mastermind behind this kidnapping case was Li Xian. Seeing that He Lan Minzhi had recognized him, Li Xian didn't care at all and asked a question with a smile.
"Ha, it's really Xiao Qi. Let me tell you, it looks familiar. Well, that's not right. My brother just didn't go to greet Xiao Qi because he was busy with trivial matters. He didn't want to arrest him like this.
Well, this joke has gone too far." Seeing the smile on Li Xian's face, Helan Minzhi's heart dropped, and he walked carelessly behind a table and sat down loosely, laughing and joking.
He said a few words.
Li Xian ignored He Lan Minzhi's crazy words and just smiled faintly. He walked slowly to the table, sat down cross-legged, reached for the teapot that was boiling next to the table, and poured it into the teapot.
He drank two glasses, pushed one of them in front of He Lan Minzhi, picked up a glass by himself, and sipped it slowly.
"Xiao Qi, please tell me something. Why did you drag my brother here? It's not just for fun, huh?"
Helan Minzhi was stunned for a long time without seeing Li Xian speak, so he couldn't help but become anxious, and started to ask questions in shame, with such a menacing look that he completely forgot about his identity as a prisoner.
"Cousin, please be patient and calm down. Let's drink a cup of tea to calm down the anger before we discuss this."
Li Xian didn't even look at He Lanmin, but just said something flatly, his words full of irrefutable meaning.
"Okay, okay, okay, drink, isn't it just a cup of tea, so what if my brother drinks it, alas..."
He Lan Minzhi was kidnapped for no reason, and he was very angry, but he didn't dare to act wild in front of Li Xian, so he yelled angrily, picked up the tea bowl on the table, and He raised his head and poured it into his mouth, but he forgot that the tea had just been boiled, and he immediately screamed from the heat.
Idiot! Li Xian was too lazy to pay attention to He Lan Minzhi's embarrassment. He rolled his eyes and scorned He Lan Min in his heart, but he still sat still, neither laughing at He Lan Minzhi's embarrassment nor laughing at him. After saying words of comfort, he held the tea bowl as if he hadn't seen him, and sipped the tea with pleasure.
"Xiao Qi, you, you are going too far. With such hot tea, you want to burn your brother to death!" He Lanmin was so embarrassed and angry that he finally couldn't help but exploded. He pointed at Li Xian and started to get angry. Come.
Helan Minzhi was very angry, but unfortunately Li Xian ignored him at all, drinking tea by himself and letting Helan Minzhi jump around like a clown, until Helan Minzhi sat down helplessly. After lying on the ground, Li Xian calmly put the tea bowl in his hand on the table, stared at He Lanmin and said: "I invite my cousin here today. I really have something to ask of you. Please ask my cousin Wan. It’s better not to refuse.”
"Xiao Qi, are you mistaken? Is this how you ask for help? No help, no help!"
When He Lanmin heard that Li Xian was going to such great lengths to ask for help, he was immediately furious. He jumped up, waved his hands in annoyance, and started yelling.
"Are you really not going to help?" Li Xian remained unmoved, smiled coldly, and asked.
"No help, Xiao Qi can do whatever he wants by himself, brother, I don't have time!" He Lan Minzhi brushed his sleeves and refused angrily.
"Hey, okay, I'll give you two choices. One is to help Gu. I can't treat you well. I dare not say more. You can still get three to five thousand guan. Secondly..." Li Xianwei said slightly... With a smile, he placed the tea bowl on the table nonchalantly, and then suddenly snorted coldly. He raised his hand, and a bright light flashed suddenly. The originally intact tea bowl was instantly split into eight petals of the same size, and The noodles were not damaged at all.
"You, you, what are you going to do? I, I, I..."
Although He Lan Minzhi has extremely bad conduct, he has practiced martial arts for a few days. He was originally quite good at it, but he has been drained by wine and sex over the years. However, he still has the vision, and he knows the impact of Li Xian's sudden sword. Sharp, his face instantly turned as white as paper, he looked at Li Xian in horror, and stammered incomprehensibly...
