"Which woman?" Shen Lanze stopped, turned quickly, and came to Ji Mingcheng.

"Fair skin, good looks, every frown and smile are unforgettable, no wonder you are so obsessed with her, you are indeed a stunner." Ji Mingcheng's mouth curled up into a big smile, and his eyes showed fiery gaze.

Shen Lanze grabbed his collar and asked in a growl, "What did you do to her!"

There was still a faint smile on Ji Mingcheng's face, no sorrow or joy could be seen, he said lightly: "You care about her a lot?"

Shen Lanze shook off Ji Mingcheng angrily, clenched his hands into fists, fixed his eyes on him, and said viciously: "If you dare to hurt her, I will definitely not spare you!"

Ji Mingcheng stretched out his hand to smooth the wrinkled robe, and said in a very calm tone: "Don't worry, if I can leave here safely, she will be fine."

"You still want to leave here alive? Dreaming!" Shen Lanze gritted his teeth, his eyes were terribly cruel, wishing to tear the man in front of him to pieces.

Ji Mingcheng raised his eyes slightly, his eyes became extremely cold, and said with a sneer, "If I die here, that beautiful girl Lu will be buried with me. Are you sure you want to disregard her life? Or is it that she is not so good at all?" important?"

"What on earth do you want?" Shen Lanze roared in a deep voice, a powerful and terrifying murderous aura emanated from the surroundings.

Ji Mingcheng was not frightened by him at all, instead he said with a smile: "Help me out, and I will let her go."

Shen Lanze snorted coldly, his eyes became colder and sharper, "So what if you can go out? You will still be caught in the end. If you let her go, I will intercede for you."

"Please? I don't need it. I just need to get out of here." Jimingcheng replied casually, with a sharp cold light shining in his eyes.

"Let me remind you for the last time, if you dare to touch her, I will never let you go." Shen Lanze said firmly.

Ji Mingcheng sneered dismissively and said, "Then just give it a try and see who wins and loses."

Shen Lanze sneered, turned and left.

Ji Mingcheng's deep eyes gradually narrowed, and he shouted to the departing people: "Don't forget our deal, you should think about it carefully!"

Unfortunately, Shen Lanze left without looking back.

Liu Yan locked the cell door, glanced at Ji Mingcheng and sighed, it's really sad that the dignified minister of the Ministry of Officials ended up in this field.

That night, a gust of cold wind blew, and Jimingcheng sat on the wooden bench as if waiting for someone.

A black figure flashed past, the jailer was about to draw his sword to fight, but he was already silenced, the visitor walked to Jimingcheng's cell, raised the sword in his hand, split the chain, pushed open the cell door and walked in.

The dim candlelight flickered, illuminating two gloomy faces looking at each other.

"You're here." Ji Mingcheng stood up, staring deeply at the person who came, he knew that the person could find him and let him out.

"move."

Ji Mingcheng turned around and left the cell, the black figure took out a sachet from his arms and threw it on the ground, before leaving in a hurry.

The night was as cool as water, and the entire capital was shrouded in silence. Suddenly, a piercing sound passed through, followed by several screams, which alarmed the guards outside the prison.

A group of guards rushed to the cell, only to see that several jailers were already lying in a pool of blood, with a long sword pierced through their throats around their necks, and the blood stained the floor, which was shocking and frightening.

The leading guard immediately ran to the cell, saw that the cell door was opened, and the people inside had disappeared without a trace, and immediately said to the people behind him: "Go and report to your lord, someone has robbed the prison and taken away Ji Mingcheng."

"Yes."

Just when the leading guard was about to turn around and leave, he suddenly noticed the sachet on the ground, picked it up casually, frowned slightly when he saw the words embroidered on it, held the sachet tightly and left in a hurry.

When Liu Yan learned that Ji Ming City had been robbed, he immediately sealed off the city gate and searched everywhere. Shen Lanze, who was about to leave the city, was also detained for this reason.

"Where is Lord Shen going?" Liu Yan rode up to catch up, turned off the horse, and came to Shen Lanze.

"I have to go out of the city for something." Shen Lanze didn't know that Ji Mingcheng was robbed, but thinking of the officers and soldiers searching everywhere in the capital, he guessed that the people in the prison might have been rescued.

"Where are you going out of the city? Who are you meeting?" Liu Yan stared at him intently. Even though he was extremely suspicious, he couldn't be sure. After all, they had no real evidence.

And he also didn't believe that Master Shen in front of him would be the one who let Ji Mingcheng go.

"What's the meaning of Mr. Liu? Could it be that you suspect that Ji Mingcheng was rescued by me?" Shen Lanze said coldly,
His eyes swept over everyone, and finally fell on Liu Yan.

Seeing that Liu Yan felt uncomfortable, he took out a sachet from his bosom and handed it over, "Is this Mr. Shen's property?"

"It's mine without a doubt." Shen Lanze nodded without denying it, not understanding how the sachet was in his hands.

Liu Yan sighed and said, "This sachet was found in the cell where Ji Mingcheng was released, please Master Shen come with me."

Shen Lanze's eyes flickered, it was obvious that this was a trap, someone wanted him to stay in the capital.

"Shen can't obey." Shen Lanze cupped his hands and said.

Liu Yan stepped forward to persuade again: "Since Mr. Shen has never done it, why are you afraid of interrogating him? Please think again, Mr. Shen!"

His words were obviously reminding Shen Lanze not to act impulsively. If he refused to investigate, he would be identified as the murderer and arrested.

"Thank you Master Liu for your kindness, but I still have important things to do, so I'm offended." Shen Lanze grabbed the horse and galloped out of the capital.

Seeing this scene, the guard behind him chased after him but was stopped by Liu Yan.

"Sir, this..."

"Send down the order that the whole city arrest Ji Mingcheng and Shen Lanze." Liu Yan ordered.

"Yes." The guard immediately took his troops and chased him out.

Liu Yan then turned around and went to the fifth prince's mansion, Jun Moyu was not surprised to hear this.

"Your Majesty Liu, you can do whatever you want, without worrying about anything."

Jun Moyu's attitude made Liu Yan elusive. It didn't mean that Mr. Shen and His Highness the Fifth Highness had the closest relationship, but now that something happened, he would ignore it.

Liu Yan's stubborn character came up again, and he asked without hesitation: "Does His Highness Fifth also think that Mr. Shen let Ji Mingcheng go?"

"I heard that Mr. Liu is very honest and never gets close to any courtiers. Why is he doing this now?" Jun Moyu chuckled and asked back.

"This minister just thinks that Mr. Shen cannot be the accomplice who let Ji Mingcheng go." Liu Yan is not partial, he only does what he thinks is right, and will never be swayed by others.

That's why, at that time, he clearly saw that Shen Lanze had the intention of escaping, but he still let him go.

It was only because he believed Master Shen was not an accomplice, and besides, the sachet was not seen on Master Shen's body yesterday, and it was probably stolen by someone at that time, which was obviously a deliberate frame.
