As his voice fell, the lid of the box was opened.

The blinding white light dazzled everyone's eyes. An unconscious woman was lying inside, her eyes were covered by black cloth, her appearance was unclear, and her breath was weak.

Everyone subconsciously held their breath and did not make a sound for a long time.

Until a strong man suddenly jumped out and said: "It's so damn exciting, I'll bet 500 taels of silver that she hasn't bloomed yet!"

The shopkeeper quickly accepted the banknote and asked loudly: "Is there anyone else who is in custody with this young master?"

Lin Ruoyou bumped Xiao Sheng's arm: "What are you betting on?"

He frowned and replied: "Do you really think this is a bet? This is just a disguised auction of this girl. In the end, the money will be used to buy her, and the one with the highest price will get it!"

Lin Ruoyou stared at him meaningfully: "Sir, you seem to understand quite a bit? Have you been here before?"

He quickly explained: "No, how could I come to a place like this? It's just a guess. If you don't believe it, see if the girl in white places a bet!"

She looked over there, and sure enough she saw a woman wearing a snow wolf mask snorting: "This is a crappy gambling game, there's no point in participating in it, so I won't bet with you!"

The boy immediately walked up to her and said, "If you don't want to place a bet, you can leave!"

A little girl next to her said quickly: "What? You want to drive our young lady away? You are so brave!"

The boy looked embarrassed and hesitantly muttered: "This is the rule of our gambling house. If you don't place a bet, you will be kicked out!"

The little girl wanted to argue again, but the woman in white stopped her: "Forget it, let's go down to play, we don't have to stay in this dirty place!"

After saying that, he glanced at Xiao Sheng: "Aren't you leaving yet?"

Before Xiao Sheng could answer, Lin Ruoyou had already taken the lead: "Let's place a bet!"

The woman in white was obviously stunned. She hesitated for a moment before slowly speaking: "Well, I was too talkative. Farewell!"

Watching her leave, Lin Ruoyou couldn't help but look at Xiao Sheng in surprise: "Do you know her?"

He nodded: "I feel very much like Tang Xianrou, the legitimate daughter of the Tang family in the Minister of Rites' Mansion!"

Lin Ruoyou heard this name before because she was named the future queen of the current dynasty.

She couldn't help but be speechless. The daughter of a dignified official family came to visit the gambling house. If this spread, it would cause a storm.

Not allowing her to guess the reason for Tang Xianrou's appearance, the waiter had already placed the tray in front of the two of them: "How much does your guest intend to deposit?"

Lin Ruoyou quickly took out a tael of silver and said, "Let's keep these!"

The waiter's hand holding the tray shook subconsciously, and he turned to the shopkeeper for help.

He hurriedly came over and said: "You two, this tael of silver is really too little, why don't you add some more!"

Lin Ruoyou retorted without hesitation: "You didn't tell me the minimum deposit amount before, so I'm not breaking the rules, right?"

The shopkeeper didn't expect her to be so eloquent, and couldn't find anything to refute for a while.

The strong man over there was already impatient with waiting, and he said fiercely: "Stop the ink stains, shopkeeper, hurry up and drive the people away, don't delay me to watch and verify the beauty on the spot!"

Lin Ruoyou clenched her fists angrily. This gambling house was so dirty that they even conducted verification on the spot.

She turned to look at the woman huddled in the box, with murderous intent rising in her eyes.

She said coldly: "You are using this woman as a bet here. Have you ever obtained her consent?"

The shopkeeper didn't expect that she would suddenly ask this question. He hesitated for a moment and then said sarcastically: "It seems that you two are trying to cause trouble. I'm sorry, but our girl has a clean background. I'm afraid your trip was in vain. Who's here?" , invite them out!"

It's a please, but that's just nice.

I saw four or five big men in black walking in quickly, subconsciously dragging Xiao Sheng and Lin Ruoyou away.

She spoke quickly: "What are you still doing? Beat them up!"

Xiao Sheng swept out the wind from his palm, and she quickly rushed towards the big box.

She raised her hand and saved the girl directly.

However, her consciousness was blurred and she looked foolish.

Lin Ruoyou reached out and patted her cheek: "Girl, do you know how you were sent to the gambling house?"

She blinked her eyes, and a flash of panic flashed across her delicate little face. She quickly stood up, kowtowed to Lin Ruoyou and said, "Master, don't kill me. No matter what you do, I agree!"

Lin Ruoyou's face suddenly darkened. How could she prove that the gambling house had kidnapped her with such a mental state?

She didn't hesitate anymore and quickly gave her a refreshing medicine.

The little girl's eyes finally became clearer, and she asked blankly: "Where am I?"

Lin Ruoyou answered directly: "You were sold as a bet. Please tell me, how did you get caught in the gambling house?"

The little girl immediately spoke: "I was drugged with sweat medicine on my way to the capital to visit my bride. I am Tang Xiner, the third lady of the Tang family in Sichuan!"

Lin Ruoyou's heart skipped a beat, her surname was Tang?Could it be related to Tang Xianrou?

Unable to let her figure it out, the little girl grabbed her wrist tightly and begged: "Sister, please help me. I am going to Beijing to attend my cousin's wedding. They will be anxious if they can't find me." ah!"

Lin Ruoyou quickly took off his shirt and covered her body and said: "Don't be afraid, I will take you out!"

She looked at Xiao Sheng without hesitation: "I am sure that the person was kidnapped. If you dare to do this under the emperor's feet, you will not be leniently spared!"

Xiao Sheng, who was fighting with those big men in black, didn't want to fight anymore. He shouted directly outside: "Iron Stone!"

The face of the shopkeeper who was standing nearby watching the battle suddenly changed. He ran to the window and looked outside, and he was surrounded by the Black Guards' armored army.

He was immediately paralyzed with fear. What kind of man had he provoked?

Tie Shi's movements were very fast and he quickly cleared out all the miscellaneous people.

Tang Xianrou, who was waiting for news below, did not leave. She quickly walked up and said, "I want to see the regent!"

Tie Shi put her up, and she restrained all her charm and stepped forward to salute respectfully.

At this time, a timid voice sounded from behind: "Cousin?"

Tang Xianrou turned around suddenly and met Tang Xiner's pitiful big eyes.

She rushed over, hugged her tightly and said, "Is it really you? Xin'er, are you not covered?"

Tang Xiner cried with tears. She shook her head vigorously: "Thanks to Sister Lin for saving me, otherwise I would have been bullied. Sister, those people were so bad. They locked me in a big box. I was I was so scared, I couldn’t push it away no matter how hard I tried, and I didn’t remember anything after that!”

Tang Xianrou comforted her gently: "It's okay, it was the Prince Regent and Miss Lin who saved you. With them protecting you, those villains will not be allowed to go unpunished!"

Tang Xiner wrinkled her nose and sobbed: "But my reputation is ruined. If this spreads out, will it affect you? Can you still be the queen?"
