Chapter 214 Yu Ningyao, don't blame me, you provoked me first.
"So, have you found them yet?"
As soon as Yu Kangjing got home, he asked his family about it.
Yu Ziheng, Yu Zicong, and Yu Ziying all shook their heads in unison.
"did not find."
Yu Kangjing was extremely anxious: "How could this happen? An ordinary person shouldn't be able to hurt Yaoyao, right? Where did this child go?"
Yu Ziying felt extremely guilty, her voice choked with sobs: "If only I had gone with Yaoyao back then. Why did I even try out the dishes?"
Shen Jinzhu quickly comforted him, "This isn't your fault. Nobody wants something like this to happen. Good fortune will always protect you, and nothing bad will happen to you."
She said these words to comfort her youngest son, but tears kept streaming down her face.
Yu Kangjing saw this and pulled her into his arms, offering silent comfort.
Yu Ziheng was the calmest: "Don't worry. With the Hidden Lin Guard involved, as long as Yaoyao hasn't left the capital, we'll definitely find her soon."
With his words, everyone felt as if they had found their pillar of support.
“Yes, yes, that’s right. With the Hidden Scale Guard searching for people, they will definitely find Yao Yao very soon.” Yu Ziying nodded excitedly.
at the same time.
Both the Lu family and the Jing'an Marquis's mansion are still searching for people.
Upon learning that so many people were searching for Yu Ningyao at the same time, Pei Wuji's expression turned gloomy.
He never expected that Yu Ningyao might be the biological daughter of the Marquis of Jing'an, and that the Hidden Lin Guard had gotten involved in the matter.
"Your Highness, should we eliminate the person completely and frame that one?" the subordinate Chang Jin suggested in a low voice.
Letting Yu Ningyao go now is tantamount to releasing a tiger back into the mountains.
If she were to turn the tables and accuse the prince, even without evidence, it would cause the other princes to become suspicious of His Highness.
If the Hidden Lin Guard were to find Yu Ningyao's whereabouts at the Prince's private residence, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Pei Wuji was also caught in a dilemma.
Should we kill Yu Ningyao, or let her go?
After a moment of silence, Pei Wuji decided to heed his subordinate's advice—to eliminate the threat completely.
After all, it would be troublesome if the Hidden Scale Guards took notice of them.
"Yu Ningyao, don't blame me, you provoked me first." Pei Wuji closed his eyes.
Such a capable woman, if she cannot be used by him, it would be better to completely eliminate her.
If he can't have it, no one else can either.
"I'm leaving this matter to you. If you don't handle it well..." Pei Wuji stared at Chang Jin, not finishing his sentence.
"Your subordinate obeys." Chang Jin's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly agreed.
……
At this moment, Yu Ningyao was unaware that Pei Wuji had already decided to kill her.
Yu Ningyao was tied up and thrown into the underground secret room of the Fourth Prince's private residence.
This underground chamber was very simple, containing only a bed, a table, and a chamber pot.
Yu Ningyao's limbs were bound by iron chains and tied to the four corners of the bed.
After binding her, the guard holding her whispered, "Princess Ning'an, please don't blame me. Your martial arts are superb, so we can only let you rest like this for now."
Then he left.
The underground chamber, which had been dimly lit by candlelight, suddenly went dark.
Yu Ningyao was so angry that she gritted her teeth.
That bastard Pei Wuji actually tried to imprison her.
[System, is there any way for me to escape?]
Yu Ningyao immediately sought help from the system.
The system was anxious but helpless, feeling guilty and aggrieved: "I'm sorry, host, I can't do it."
Yu Ningyao: ...
Also.
She'd been tied to the system for so many years, she knew its capabilities all too well, so why did she still harbor unrealistic expectations of it?
Seeing her disappointment, the system quickly added:
[However, host, don't worry. The Yu family, the Marquis's mansion, the General's mansion, the Zheng family (including the Imperial Physician's family), and Yun Chubai are all looking for you.]
Ah, the Hidden Scale Guards are looking for you too.
[You'll probably be rescued soon.]
Hearing the system say that, Yu Ningyao was instantly relieved.
But why would the Hidden Scale Guards want to see her?
She couldn't help but ask.
The system revealed that the Hidden Scale Guards suspected her of having a different background.
Yu Ningyao never expected that the Hidden Lin Guard would find her at this critical juncture.
Wouldn't Yu Kangping and Cui Ruixin then become entangled with her?
Yu Ningyao was somewhat irritated.
She didn't want to have anything to do with the Marquis's mansion.
She only recognizes Yu Kangjing and Shen Jinzhu as her parents.
"Forget it, let's wait until we get out of Pei Wuji's clutches first." She calmed herself down, closed her eyes, and prepared to lie down.
She lay there for a while and then fell asleep.
After an unknown amount of time, Yu Ningyao heard the door to the secret room open.
She opened her eyes instantly.
But in order not to disturb the person who came, she closed her eyes again, breathed evenly, and pretended to be still fast asleep.
"You're really carefree; you can even fall asleep like this."
Yun Chubai's voice rang in her ears, and Yu Ningyao opened her eyes in disbelief.
"How did you come?"
Her movement caused the chains to rattle.
Yun Chubai used a silver needle to pry open the iron chains binding her hands and feet. Looking at her wrists, which were bruised from the iron shackles, he couldn't help but frown.
"Are you disappointed that I'm here?" He looked up at Yu Ningyao.
"How could that be? I'm overjoyed, just surprised." Yu Ningyao rubbed her sore wrists and stretched.
She thought the Hidden Scale Guards would be the first to find her, but it turned out to be Yun Chubai.
"How did you know I was here?" she asked, staring at him curiously.
Yun Chubai replied, "The Hidden Lin Guard and your family went to the embassy to look for me. When they learned that you were missing, I thought of the Fourth Prince."
Yu Ningyao was surprised that his judgment was so accurate, and he found the correct answer directly.
“I overheard your deal that day. I thought that now that you've become my Crown Princess, he certainly wouldn't let it go. I found out about his private residence and came to try my luck, but I didn't expect to run into that guy.”
Yun Chubai pointed to Chang Jin, who had been knocked unconscious at the door.
"The Fourth Prince sent him to silence me, and since it was on my way, I had him lead the way."
"Silence them?" Yu Ningyao's tone suddenly rose.
Men's words are indeed deceiving.
In the afternoon, they said they wouldn't hurt her, but that night they sent people to kill her.
Yu Ningyao ground her molars.
If you've bullied her to this extent, then don't blame her for retaliating.
Even if we can't be allies, we can still be friends and cooperate again in the future.
But Pei Wuji kidnapped her, which narrowed her path.
Yu Ningyao pursed her lips, pondering how to severely injure Pei Wuji.
First of all, one certainly cannot directly appeal to the emperor.
After all, she had given Pei Wuji a lot of useful information before, and if the emperor found out, she would be in deep trouble.
Secondly, the fact that she was kidnapped and imprisoned by Pei Wuji could not be made public, otherwise her reputation would be damaged, affecting her chances of becoming Yun Chubai's Crown Princess.
Finally, she still needed to find a way to evade the Hidden Scale Guards' henchmen and come up with a perfect excuse to fool them into believing that she had been missing for a whole day.
