son, don't mess around

As this group of masters from the Secret Heaven Division passed by the street, the people watching on the street pointed and talked, but they were not surprised.

With the rebellion of Prince Xu's Mansion in the north, the capital city has been in turmoil for the past few months. Everyone is in danger, and people from the imperial court can be seen arresting rebels in the city every few days.

Therefore, the fact that the Mi Tiansi dispatched so many masters today just passed by in a hurry and did not cause much commotion.

However, Hu Yao, who appeared on the street, suddenly changed his expression.

"Miss Hu, what's wrong with you?"

Xu Zhongshan, who was standing by, noticed that her face looked strange and immediately realized something.

Earlier in the teahouse, the two mysterious men came hurriedly to find Hu Yao. They moved stealthily and kept saying that something had happened... Could it be related to the Secret Department?

Xu Zhongshan guessed this in his heart, but did not say it out loud. Instead, he looked at Hu Yao with a puzzled and worried expression.

"No, it's nothing!"

Hu Yao seemed a little panicked at this time, but he still tried to remain calm.

But I was already panicking in my heart.

It was obvious that most of these people were targeting those two people.

What on earth did they do? Why were they discovered by the Secret Service?
If she is really caught, will she be implicated?
Thinking of this, Hu Yao was obviously a little restless.

"I, I still have something to do!"

Hu Yao took a deep breath, her face grim, and she didn't care whether Xu Zhongshan would discover any secrets.

The current situation seems to be more serious than she imagined.

Hu Yao looked in the direction where the Mi Tiansi people left and quickly followed.

"Miss Hu, I'm with you!"

Seeing this, Xu Zhongshan hurriedly followed.

at the same time.

"boom!"

In a desolate courtyard, the gate was suddenly knocked open. Then, several masters of the Secret Heaven Division filed in and headed straight for the room in the courtyard.

When the two pioneers of the Secret Heaven Division approached the door of the room, there was a loud 'bang' and the door was hit by something heavy and flew backwards.

The two vigilant Mi Tiansi pioneers at the door immediately drew their swords and blocked the flying door. They took two steps back, and the next second, two figures rushed out of the room quickly.

They were the two mysterious men who had just met Hu Yao in the teahouse!

At this moment, both of them looked extremely ugly.

When they realized they were being targeted by the Mi Tiansi, they felt something was wrong and immediately wanted to get away from the capital.

But unexpectedly, I was still a step too slow.

The people from the Secret Service appeared much faster than they had imagined.

At this moment, when the two rushed out of the room, they saw several detectives from the Secret Service appearing in the yard.

The sharp black robe, the unique attire of the Mi Tiansi, added a bit of solemnity to the air.

The two men looked at each other with gloomy faces, exerted their inner strength, jumped up, and tried to break out of the yard.

However, just as the two of them leaped up, several sword auras appeared from all corners of the courtyard and came over like an overwhelming force.

The two men's faces changed drastically and they raised their swords to resist.

"Bang bang bang!"

As the sword energy fell down, the two people who had just jumped up were knocked to the ground in an instant.

The moment they fell to the ground, before the two of them could even try their luck, several long knives from all around them had already fallen on their necks, instantly controlling them and making them unable to move.

At this moment, the two of them looked horrified and desperate.

The cooperation between the detectives of Mi Tiansi was too tacit. Obviously, these people's martial arts skills were not very high, but with their superb cooperation, it seemed that the two of them had no power to resist at all.

The moment the long knife was pressed against their necks, several acupuncture points on their bodies were pressed. They groaned and fell to the ground.

He was then tied up and taken away by the masters of Mi Tiansi.

The action was quick and decisive, and everything was settled in just a short moment.

After arresting the two men, the masters of the Mi Tiansi retreated quickly without any delay. After a while, except for two or three people who dealt with the aftermath, the rest of them evacuated quickly.

Hu Yao, who was standing at the entrance of the street outside the courtyard, saw this scene and his face turned completely pale.

Although she didn't see what happened in the yard, she saw the two people taken away when the Mi Tiansi people retreated... they were clearly those two people!

Finished!

Those two were caught!

At this moment, Hu Yao felt dizzy and a sense of fear suddenly surged from her heart. Hu Yao's body was shaky and she almost fell down.

"Miss Hu, be careful!"

Xu Zhongshan's concerned tone came to her ears. He stepped forward and supported her: "Miss Hu, don't worry for now. If you have anything to say, please tell me slowly."

"you……"

Hu Yao came back to her senses and saw Xu Zhongshan following beside her. She looked confused and doubtful. On the one hand, she was still on guard against Xu Zhongshan, but on the other hand, Xu Zhongshan's performance in the past few days and his presence by her side after the incident gave her an indescribable sense of security.

She was about to say something when Xu Zhongshan said earnestly, "Miss Hu, things haven't gotten to the worst yet."

Xu Zhongshan glanced at the direction where the people from Mi Tiansi left and said, "Although the two of them were arrested, it is not necessarily that Miss Hu will be implicated. For now, Miss Hu does not need to worry too much. There is still room for maneuver."

Hu Yao's expression changed: "You, you know?"

"guessed!"

Xu Zhongshan sighed, "I'm not stupid. The two men who came to look for Miss Hu just now clearly showed that something serious had happened. Now that the Secret Secretary is in a hurry, and Miss Hu you are so worried, it's obvious that something had happened to them..."

Hu Yao was stunned.

Before she could say anything, she heard Xu Zhongshan speak up again and suggest, "Miss Hu, now that the two of them have been captured, the most urgent thing is to find a way to rescue them."

"it's useless."

Hu Yao shook her head: "I can't save him!"

Since the two of them were at odds with the leader of the Secret Heaven Division, it would be difficult for them to get out after falling into the Secret Heaven Division.

"Why?"

Xu Zhongshan asked.

"them……"

Hu Yao subconsciously wanted to speak, but suddenly remembered something and shut up again: "No, nothing!"

Xu Zhongshan glanced at her and did not ask any further questions.

"So now, Miss Hu is worried that she will be implicated by the two of them?"

Hu Yao's face was grim and he gritted his teeth, it was obvious that this was the case.

"Don't worry too much, Miss Hu. I will find a way for you." Xu Zhongshan assured.

Hearing this, Hu Yao suddenly looked up and stared at him: "Do you have a solution?!"

"Two people working together is always better than one person. Since Miss Hu is worried about being implicated by the two of them, they will definitely betray you after they are arrested."

Hearing this, Hu Yao's face completely lost all color.

This is what she is most worried about. Once it is revealed, the consequences will be disastrous.

"However, Miss Hu, don't worry too much. After all, that's just one side of their story."

Xu Zhongshan calmly analyzed: "What Miss Hu needs to do now is to clean up the evidence of her dealings with the two of them, and then clean up all the evidence left behind... Even if the two of them confess Miss Hu, Miss Hu only needs to deny it, and the Secret Service will be of no use."

"With Miss Hu's identity, even if the Secret Service has no evidence and only relies on testimony, they dare not do anything to Miss Hu!" Xu Zhongshan's words clearly weakened the existence of the Secret Service.

Not to mention that Mi Tiansi only had testimonies and confessions, even if there was no evidence at all, it would be easy for Mi Tiansi to arrest her, a young lady from an aristocratic family.

But Hu Yao obviously didn't expect this. She was already in a state of panic, and after hearing Xu Zhongshan's analysis, it was like grabbing a life-saving straw.

"Is everything you said true?!"

As she listened to Xu Zhongshan's analysis, her eyes gradually brightened up again.

Yes!

As long as I don't admit it, what does it matter if they confess?

I have already destroyed all the evidence and distanced myself from all connection...As long as I refuse to admit it, what can they do?
Thinking of this, Hu Yao calmed down a lot.

"You have a point!"

Hu Yao took a deep breath and said, "If they don't have evidence, it has nothing to do with me."

Xu Zhongshan glanced at her and asked tentatively, "Have you destroyed all the evidence of Miss Hu's contact with the two of them? If it is discovered, it will probably cause trouble."

Hearing this, Hu Yao's face changed slightly.

The original evidence clues had long been cleared up, but the dealings with those two people were not so easy to deal with.

Thinking of this, Hu Yao calmed down a lot and gritted his teeth: "Not yet!"

"I'll take care of it now!"

"Miss Hu, I'm with you!"

Seeing Hu Yao leave, Xu Zhongshan quickly said: "I am not talented, but I can help Miss Hu."

Hu Yao, who was in a state of confusion at the moment, felt much more at ease after hearing Xu Zhongshan's suggestion. Therefore, when Xu Zhongshan mentioned that he wanted to be with her, Hu Yao nodded and agreed without much hesitation.

At this time, it is better to have more people around to help than for her to be alone!
……

In the east of the city, in a small, inconspicuous house.

Inside the house.

Hu Yao took out a lot of letters from a room and came to the yard.

There was a bonfire in the yard.

Hu Yao threw the letters into the fire. As she watched the letters burn, the uneasy mood in her heart gradually calmed down.

These are the letters she exchanged with these people. As long as these things are dealt with, no one will have evidence to prove that she is involved in this matter.

As long as she doesn't admit it, no one can do anything to her.

Thinking of this, Hu Yao felt relieved!

When she turned around again, she saw Xu Zhongshan squatting in the yard, helping her burn letters, with a look of satisfaction in his eyes.

This guy actually made her quite satisfied!

He was handsome, good at talking, and not stupid. The key point was that he still stood by her and didn't panic in such a situation, which made Hu Yao look at him with a higher opinion.

Keeping such a bootlicker around can indeed help her deal with a lot of troubles.

If it weren't for the decline of his Xu family, Hu Yao might have really taken a fancy to him.

It was a pity that the Xu family was now just a small declining family with no foundation or power. Such a family was destined to be out of her sight.

but……

Hu Yao looked at Xu Zhongshan, squinting his eyes as if thinking about something, no one knew what he was thinking about.

"Miss Hu, all the letters have been burned!"

At this time, Xu Zhongshan had already burned all the letters. He was very curious about the contents of these letters and knew that there must be a secret. But under Hu Yao's nose, Xu Zhongshan did not dare to be blatant, for fear of being discovered.

Hu Yao was completely relieved: "You did a great job."

"Thank you Miss Hu for the compliment!"

Xu Zhongshan showed a simple and sincere smile on his face, and hesitated to say: "Miss Hu?"

"how?"

"What exactly is going on?"

After hesitating for a long time, Xu Zhongshan finally asked curiously, "What is the relationship between Miss Hu and those two? How did she provoke the Secret Heaven Division?!"

As he asked this, a sharp look flashed in Hu Yao's eyes.

Xu Zhongshan immediately realized that he had spoken out of turn. This woman was too vigilant.

He immediately added: "Those two don't look like decent people. How could Miss Hu, a wealthy woman, have any connection with them? Could it be that Miss Hu was coerced and framed by them?"

"Or is there some misunderstanding?"

Xu Zhongshan's words made Hu Yao's expression more relaxed.

She said in a deep voice: "I guess so."

"I don't know either of them well."

Hu Yao began to distance herself from the matter.

"I see."

Xu Zhongshan looked confident and nodded, "They were taken away by the Secret Service, and I'm afraid they are in danger. For now, Miss Hu should be careful."

Xu Zhongshan's words seemed to be concerned, but they were deliberately mentioned, which made Hu Yao, who was already uneasy, even more uneasy.

She frowned, her face still slightly gloomy. Even though she had disposed of all the evidence, she was still uneasy.

Why did the people from Mi Tiansi suddenly come here?

Could it be that... it has been discovered?
Realizing this thought, Hu Yao became even more uneasy. She couldn't sit still anymore, and after hesitating for a long time, she finally gritted her teeth, as if she had made up her mind.

"I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

After saying that, Hu Yao turned around and left. Xu Zhongshan stood where he was and did not follow.

He looked at Hu Yao's back as she left, and he seemed to be thinking about something. After Hu Yao left, Xu Zhongshan slowly took out a crumpled letter from his sleeve.

Just now when Xu Zhongshan was burning the letters for Hu Yao, he hid one while she was not paying attention.

He opened the letter in his hand and looked down at it for a few seconds. During these few seconds, Xu Zhongshan's pupils shrank suddenly.

He looked up suddenly, his eyes full of horror!

……

Capital city, Cuiwei Residence.

This is a low-key yet luxurious mansion.

The courtyard has a pleasant scenery and is decorated luxuriously. Under the eaves, there are small bridges and flowing water, and pavilions and corridors are everywhere. It can be seen that the owner of this place is either rich or noble.

At this moment, Hu Yao hurried over and appeared at the door.

She was stopped by the guards at the door, but was allowed to pass after inspection. Hu Yao walked quickly into the yard and came to the innermost yard.

The door was slightly ajar, and two guards with reserved auras and impressive martial arts skills were standing guard at the door.

And in the room came the sounds of sweet voices, the gentle coquettish voice of women, and the triumphant laughter of men.

Hu Yao stood outside the door, took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, bowed his head respectfully, and his face was devoid of any trace of arrogance.

It seemed like he was being extremely respectful, yet also feeling a bit uneasy.

Inside the room, a guard walked over quickly and whispered to the man who was sitting in front of the main throne, holding the beautiful woman in his arms, bowing and respectfully saying, "Your Highness, Hu Yao is here!"
