You are asked to marry in place of the tyrant, and you allow the tyrant to send you to marry?
Chapter 84: Guarding and Stealing
"Dad, I remember now! They don't seem to be from Yecheng.
But they said that you must hand over the detailed defense map of the palace within three days, otherwise they will kill the child!"
Wang Cangyu was eating roast chicken while talking, with a look of satisfaction and joy on his face.
Wang Jingyun almost doubted whether his stupid son was happy to eat the chicken or enjoyed the pleasure of both father and son being threatened by others.
"The Imperial Palace Defense Map? ... Could it be that they are...?"
"Ahem! Master, I just received a secret letter."
Wang Jingyun was just about to say that the kidnappers were the three princes of Loulan when Wang Chong suddenly coughed twice and quickly whispered in his ear.
Hearing this, Wang Jingyun was stunned for a moment, and then his expression became extremely frightened.
"Yun'er, just stay in the mansion and don't go anywhere.
Daddy is going to take care of something and will be back soon."
"Okay, Daddy. Hehe..."
Wang Jingyun was in a hurry to read the secret letter, but was worried that his son would run around, so he could only persuade him to stay in the mansion.
Wang Cangyuen was afraid of being tied up, so he did not resist at this moment and was more obedient than ever before.
Soon, Wang Jingyun and Wang Chong went to the study.
"Master, so it seems that the people who kidnapped the young master are from Loulan?
This kind of secret letter has happened more than once or twice. It seems that they really kidnapped the young master because they were desperate."
Wang Chong handed the secret letter to Wang Jingyun and his expression began to become a little flustered.
He never dreamed that the people of Loulan were so anxious to obtain the defense map of the imperial palace.
He didn't even know their real purpose in taking the defense map.
"It seems to be correct. But I don't understand what they are doing with the palace defense map?
Could it be that... they want to assassinate the emperor or the queen mother?"
Wang Jingyun was also confused and couldn't figure it out.
He has always been neutral in the court and has never taken sides.
Even though the three Loulan princes came from afar and his son was controlled by King Anyuan, he still chose to let nature take its course.
But now, the Loulan people suddenly released his son.
The only condition was to force him to hand over the palace defense map.
Wang Jingyun suddenly panicked.
In the past, people did not take sides because they were afraid of offending the other party and being caught by the other party.
The people who are now making things difficult for him are the Loulan people.
If Wang Jingyun really handed over the palace defense map, he would be a traitor and his entire family would be executed.
Wang Jingyun naturally would not risk doing such a stupid thing.
"They shouldn't dare to do something as obvious as assassinating the Emperor and the Queen Mother, right?"
Wang Chong thought about it and still felt that it was somewhat illogical.
On second thought, it seems that this is the only reason that makes sense.
"So what exactly do they want to do?"
Wang Jingyun raised his eyes and looked at Wang Chong, his face full of confusion.
Wang Chong shook his head: "Maybe he has other intentions."
"Don't worry about them for now. Go get the Queen's defense map and I'll think about it carefully."
Wang Jingyun suddenly wanted to see the defense map, so he waved his hand to signal Wang Chong to get it.
Wang Chong nodded, turned around immediately, opened the drawer, gently pressed the switch of the darkroom, then went in to get the palace defense map and handed it to Wang Jingyun.
Wang Jingyun opened the defense map and examined it carefully for a while, looking thoughtful.
"Master, are you really going to give them this defense map? This is treason..."
Seeing that Wang Jingyun seemed to be hiding something on his mind, Wang Chong asked cautiously.
In his opinion, even if the Loulan people really wanted to force Wang Jingyun to betray their country, they should at least give Wang Jingyun enough benefits, right?
If they wanted to exchange Wang Cangyu's life for the defense map of Daye Palace, it would be too easy for Loulan.
This is what Wang Chong thought in his heart. He hoped that Wang Jingyun would think twice before acting.
"They have a nice idea! When I find out who kidnapped Yun'er, I will make sure they are neither alive nor dead!"
Wang Jingyun gritted his teeth and was determined to avenge his son.
Upon hearing this, Wang Chong was stunned for a moment, somewhat at a loss.
“Swoosh—”
"boom---"
What the two men didn't expect was that before they could react, a man in black suddenly jumped down from the beam and snatched the defense map from Wang Jingyun's hand with lightning speed.
"Thank you, Minister Wang, for the picture!"
The two were in a daze. The man in black said this in a cold voice and left quickly.
Wang Jingyun didn't even have time to blink, and his hands were empty.
"This? What on earth is going on?...The defense map, the defense map was taken away by him!
Then...how should I explain to the Loulan people?"
It took a moment for Wang Jingyun to fully react.
However, the man in black had already climbed over the eaves and walls and disappeared without a trace.
Wang Chong was also at a loss and stood there in a daze for a long time.
It was not until Wang Jingyun sighed and patted his shoulder that he came to his senses.
"Master, don't panic. Maybe he is the Loulan man who kidnapped you, and he is here for our defense map."
Wang Chong's brain was quite sharp, and he immediately connected the kidnappers who abducted Wang Cangyuen with the Loulan people.
Hearing this, Wang Jingyun calmed down a lot and could only accept it for the time being.
"I hope so! Alas!"
It is said that when people are unlucky, even drinking cold water will get stuck in their teeth.
Wang Jingyun finally gained some insight.
The palace has been plagued by misfortunes one after another recently. It is truly a double whammy, with a sense of crisis that one's future is in jeopardy.
Wang Jingyun didn’t know how he managed to survive.
"Butler Wang, I must hurry to the palace to report the loss of the defense map to the emperor, lest anything goes wrong in the future and the emperor kills my entire family!"
Wang Chong was still thinking carefully about what to do next, but Wang Jingyun thought of a remedy before him, and he was stunned.
After being stunned for a few seconds, he nodded subconsciously: "This is the only way."
Soon, Wang Jingyun left the palace and rushed to the palace.
Qian'an Palace
"What? Wang Jingyun, are you getting old and confused?
I have only given you the defense map for a few days? And you have already learned to give it away?
Do you think your Wang family has lived too long?
You are clearly stealing from the company!"
When Zhu Yunhao heard that the palace defense map had been stolen by thieves, he instantly became furious and threw a few teacups at Wang Jingyun.
His face was filled with anger, which was very frightening.
Seeing this, Eunuch Liu on the side quickly stepped forward with his head tilted, and rebuked Wang Jingyun with a gloomy face:
"Minister Wang, what you did was wrong. Why did you give the defense map to the thieves for your own selfish reasons?"
"To put it bluntly, if that thief took the defense map and sneaked into the palace to assassinate the emperor or the queen mother, how many heads would you have to bear the responsibility?"
Wang Jingyun had already expected Zhu Yunhao to say this, but it was Eunuch Liu who spoke these words.
He knelt down and apologized, tears streaming down his face.
"Your Majesty! This old minister really didn't mean it! The thief first kidnapped my son for a few days and specifically asked for the palace defense map..."
Wang Jingyun tried desperately to explain and prove his innocence.
But many times, explanation is just a cover-up, and it makes things worse.
