The heavens set sail from the courtyard

After Yang Xian was confined to his home, the mother and daughter of the Li family completely relaxed, and Sifuzhai resumed normal business.

The lives of the five sisters of the Li family returned to normal again. They helped in the store as needed, and took care of housework as needed. The five sisters often got together to chat, and their feelings were extremely deep.

Li Leshan couldn't understand why Yang Xian was only under house arrest for three months, but the eldest and third sisters thought that the matter had been settled.

"Sister, Yang Xian will be released in three months. He won't take revenge on our family, will he?"

"No." The eldest sister Li Shouhua said with a smile: "Our biggest gain this time is not to confine Yang Xian, but to hook up with Concubine Shang in the palace.

As long as Shang Mei is here, we won't be afraid of Yang Xian messing around."

Li Leshan was even more puzzled and asked: "I don't understand why Lady Shang is willing to help our family when we haven't even met each other."

Sanniang Li Kangning explained: "Lady Shang is not trying to help us, but to use us to attack Lady Yang, or even the Yang family behind her."

Aunt Li Shouhua said: "The harem is full of twists and turns, and the concubines are vying for favor, using every possible means. Although Shang Meiren is not the most favored among all the concubines, she is not an unknown person either.

Recently, Lady Yang has been favored by the emperor, but she has also become a thorn in the eyes of other concubines.

Sanniang Li Kangning continued, "Lady Shang was worried about how to attack Lady Yang, and the silk shirt we sent her gave her an opportunity."

Si Niang Li Haode figured something out and said, "That Concubine Shang may not have seen the poem hidden in the lining of her skirt, but in order to strike a blow against Concubine Yang, she still chose to wear it in front of the emperor. But isn't she afraid of causing the emperor to misunderstand and think that she is having an affair with Yang Xian?"

The old lady laughed and said, "No, the emperor ascended the throne at a young age and was able to control the government in just a few years. He is naturally not a stupid person. I guess Lady Shang also has a backup plan, otherwise she wouldn't dare to do this. The women in the harem are not simple, who doesn't have some tricks!"

Wu Niang Li Leshan suddenly realized, but she had a new doubt: "If we sell the skirt to the noble lady, if the government investigates, won't we be in danger of extinction?"

Aunt Li Shouhua said with a smile: "Xiaowu, you can think of this step, which is a great growth. In fact, when I sold the skirt, I also ignored this point and planned to let Qiong Nu sell it directly to the noble lady.

It was only after Lord Wang sent someone to remind me that I found four trading companies and sold the four items to the middle nobles. Chai An from Pan Lou also helped a lot.

After all, this is a scandal in the palace, and the emperor wants to make a small matter out of it.”

Sanniang Li Kangning thought of Chai An and couldn't help but smile, but she said stubbornly: "It must be that my second brother-in-law asked Chai An for help, so he was willing to help."

The Li sisters looked at each other and smiled secretly.

Now almost everyone can see what Li Kangning feels for Chai An.

Chai An had made great efforts in the matter of Yang Xian, and it seemed that he also had feelings for Li Kangning. The only thing left between the two of them was the last layer of window paper to be broken.

"In fact, if the palace really investigates, they may find us. Someone must have covered it up for us in the end." Aunt Li Shouhua said: "The most likely person is Concubine Shang."

Wu Niang Li Leshan was shocked and said: "The harem is so complicated, I don't want to go to that kind of ghost place."

Si Niang Li Haode was speechless and said, "You said it as if you can go if you want."

Li Leshan and Li Haode started arguing again. The other sisters found it interesting to watch the quarrel. Only the eldest sister, Li Shouhua, silently glanced at Pan Lou opposite.

There were some things she hadn't told her sisters just now. In fact, Wang Gang also contributed to this matter, but he was just hiding behind the scenes.

For Lady Shang to be able to wear that dress of unknown origin, there must be someone who guaranteed her, and that person can only be Wang Gang.

Rather than saying that Lady Shang was attracted to the Li family, it would be more accurate to say that she was attracted to Wang Gang.

"I owe you another big favor!" After playing around for a while, the five sisters decided to go shopping and find some new things on the market to expand their own store business. At the same time, they wanted to return the favor by giving some gifts to Concubine Shang to ask her to please the emperor.

Now the Li family and Concubine Shang are tied together. Only the more favored Concubine Shang is, the safer the Li family will be.

The five sisters wore veils while shopping to cover their faces to avoid getting into trouble, but what they didn't know was that there were a few sneaky figures following them from Sifuzhai.

These people were dressed in ordinary clothes, had dark skin, and fierce eyes. They always kept a distance from the Li sisters, neither too far nor too close, so as not to be noticed.

The five sisters were so engrossed in shopping that they had no idea there were people following them. The second sister Fuhui and the third sister Kangning went together to look at jewelry. When they separated from the other three, those who were following them suddenly quickened their pace.

Li Kangning was the first to realize something was wrong, but it was too late. A pair of strong hands covered her mouth and picked her up.

Li Fuhui on the other side did not escape the disaster either. He was caught by two big men and his mouth was covered, making him unable to call for help.

At this time, a carriage drove over, and the big man threw Li Kangning and Li Fuhui directly onto the carriage, and then drove away.

From kidnapping to leaving, the whole process took only a few breaths. No one around noticed it. It was an hour later when Li Shouhua discovered that his two sisters were missing.

Li Shouhua returned to Sifuzhai with his other two sisters. When he learned that his second and third sisters had not returned, he realized that something had happened and hurried to Kaifeng Prefecture to find Wang Gang.

Li Haode and Li Leshan went to Fan's house to inform Fan Lianghan.

When Fan Lianghan and Chai An arrived at Kaifeng Prefecture together, they were told by Li Shouhua that Wang Gang had gone out for something and was not in Bianliang.

"Lord Wang is not here, but I have reported the case. Kaifeng Prefecture has sent people to look for the whereabouts of Second and Third Mothers." Li Shouhua said, pretending to be calm.

"Did the people in Kaifeng Prefecture say when we can find my wife?" Fan Lianghan asked anxiously.

Li Shouhua wanted to say something but stopped himself. He opened his mouth and then closed it again.

Chai An's eyes narrowed and he asked, "What did Kaifeng Prefecture say?"

Li Shouhua sighed and said, "People in Kaifeng Prefecture said that a group of vicious people appeared in Bianjing City recently. They robbed rich girls and extorted money. The government has been investigating for a while and offered a reward, but they still can't find the perpetrators."

"Ah." Fan Lianghan was surprised and said, "Could it be that my wife was kidnapped by those vicious people?"

Li Shouhua said silently: "It's probably correct!"

Chai An was horrified. He had heard Wang Gang mention that case before. None of those abducted rich ladies were ever found. Whenever they were found, their corpses had been tortured beyond recognition.

"Cousin, what should we do?" Fan Lianghan said at a loss.

"Let's send all the servants out to look for them." Chai An seemed to have heard Wang Gang mention that he suspected the group of villains were hiding in the deserted mountains outside the city.

"Okay, I will gather people to look for it right away. But Bianjing City is so big, where should we start looking?" Fan Lianghan asked.

"Send someone into the mountains to search first." Chai An secretly vowed to find Li Kangning at all costs.

"Aunt, please go home and wait for our news." Fan Lianghan said to Li Shouhua.

"Thank you for your help." Li Shouhua said disappointedly: "Why is Lord Wang not here at this time?!"

Li Shouhua herself didn't realize that when she encountered a problem that she couldn't solve, the first person she thought of was Wang Gang. (End of this chapter)
