I became a concubine in the palace and cured my master's hidden disease.
Chapter 80: News Suspicion
"Please be patient and listen to me. Miss Lin was indeed at my place a few days ago, and I treated her with courtesy. When I heard that someone wanted to harm her, I immediately informed her.
I don't know who she had offended, but seeing that she was in a bad condition, I took the initiative to lend a helping hand.
Unfortunately, my men were escorting Miss Lin to the Silver Fir Villa outside the city. As soon as they left the city gate, they were besieged by a group of mysterious people! None of my men survived! What's worse is that Miss Lin also disappeared mysteriously! You said that I have no way to defend myself. I had good intentions but did bad things. Now I am misunderstood. How should I deal with it? "
"Are you serious?" Zhao Yuan asked solemnly.
"If I tell even a single lie, you will punish me as I please!" Jiang Dan swore to the sky.
"How could this be!" Zhao Yuan frowned and slapped the chair under him. He finally found a clue and was about to find Lin Yan, but suddenly she disappeared.
No! To be precise, after a hysterical outburst, Zhao Yuan slowly calmed himself down. Because he knew very well that if he continued to be so impulsive, it would not only be useless, but also make him confused. The most urgent thing was to find out who kidnapped A Yan?
Zhao Yuan looked at Jiang Dan, who was kneeling on the ground with his head bowed and silent, and realized that the person who could easily kill Jiang Dan must be very powerful. Then, who is this person? What is his purpose? These questions are still unknown for the time being.
Ayan has always lived a secluded life, not competing with the world. Could it be that someone is using her as a bet again? But that's not right. Only a few people knew that Ayan ran away from home this time. There are even rumors in the market that she has passed away and there is no such person in Prince Rui's mansion anymore. Therefore, this speculation is obviously untenable.
This time, he was ordered by his father to investigate the taxation and corruption of officials in various counties, and it was inevitable that he would offend some local officials. After analyzing all the factors, it was very likely that this incident was aimed at him.
After thinking this through, Zhao Yuan decided not to act rashly. Sooner or later, the other party would come to negotiate with him anyway, so it would be better to wait and see what tricks the other party would come up with next. This way, he could respond to the situation as it came.
Lin Yan woke up vaguely. It would be more accurate to say that she was woken up by water or flowers. At this moment, her mind was still in a state of confusion and her consciousness was not yet fully awake.
The sound of swords clashing was incessant, and the doors and windows shook violently, as if they would collapse at any time. In the chaos, someone touched a plum vase on the flower stand, and the water in the vase poured down like a waterfall, just falling on the unconscious Lin Yan's head. The flower branches in the vase seemed to have eyes, and pierced her body without deviation, waking her up from her coma.
"Oh my goodness, this place is really messy!" Lin Yan secretly complained in her heart. Although she didn't know what happened and where she was, she could feel that this place was definitely not a safe place just by what she saw and heard. So, in order to save her life, she subconsciously squatted down and began to move slowly towards the door.
In this chaos, Lin Yan moved her steps carefully, trying to avoid making any noise. Her heartbeat accelerated rapidly, and her breathing became more and more rapid. Every step was filled with tension and fear, for fear that she would touch something dangerous if she was not careful. However, she did not choose to retreat or escape, but moved forward firmly in the direction away from danger. She slipped out of the unknown house. What a bad luck, she didn't know whose big black dog she woke up, and it was barking at her at this moment!
"Can't you just leave me alone for a while?" Lin Yan luckily found a stick from the corner of the wall and held it tightly in her hand.
After seeing this scene, the black dog thought that he was about to become someone else's meal, so he ran away.
Just when Lin Yan was secretly rejoicing, she suddenly heard a roar from inside the house: "What a bunch of rubbish! Everyone has run away, why are you still fighting?"
Although Lin Yan didn't know who the man was talking about, she knew in her heart that it was most likely related to her. So she quickened her pace of escape and hid in the narrow alley.
Listening to the messy footsteps getting closer and closer to her, she was extremely anxious. In a panic, Lin Yan fell down, her face was covered with dust, and when she stood up, her hand accidentally touched the back door of someone's house. With a clang, the door actually opened a crack.
Lin Yan pushed hard and was startled to find that the door was indeed unlocked! She pushed the door open without hesitation and hid inside, quickly closing the door and bolting it.
Through the extremely narrow gap in the door, with the help of the almost imperceptible moonlight, Lin Yan stared at the movement outside with wide eyes and nervously watched. Suddenly, she saw several figures in black night clothes running past like ghosts, but not long after, these people turned back.
One of the men in black cursed fiercely: "You useless bunch! You let her escape again and again!" Another man echoed: "Boss, this woman ran too fast, just like a gust of wind, leaving no trace at all."
"Hmph! That's all she can do. There are only two roads here, either the one on the left or the one on the right. How far can a weak and frail woman run in the middle of the night? Let's search every house! I don't believe we can't find her!" The man in black, who was called "the boss," gave orders while gritting his teeth.
Hearing this, Lin Yan's heart instantly sank. She curled up tightly in the corner, her body trembling constantly. What if these people rushed in, how would she escape? Her mind was blank, and she couldn't think of any way to deal with it. At this moment, she could only pray silently to God for protection, hoping that these people would not find her hiding place.
However, just now, they seemed to have mentioned the word "again and again". Could it be that the last time they attacked him, it was actually this group of people?
If this is true... then this is definitely not accidental! This is obviously a carefully planned and long-planned conspiracy. And since such a conspiracy exists, then I must be very important to them.
But what use could she be to them? Lin Yan's thoughts were surging like a tide. She racked her brains and pondered, trying to dig out some clues from the depths of her memory. She carefully recalled every recent event, not missing any details, and tried hard to find the possible connection between her and these people.
