This scholar is a bit cruel

Chapter 206: First Encounter in Danger
Traveling quickly.

Soon, Luo Zijun arrived at the street outside the Jia Mansion.

He forced himself to calm down.

At this time, you must not panic.

When she first met him, she was a young lady from an official family, mainly acting as bait. Even though she had been abducted now, the other party would never harm her for the time being.

The most likely scenario is that Chu Jian is indeed in the Jia Mansion now.

The Jia family’s carriage and maids are not easy to forge.

If it were fake, it wouldn't be possible for it to be driven around the streets so brazenly, and no one would believe it easily when they first saw it.

So, there is a high possibility that these are all true.

The time when the other party took action was in the evening, when the women of the Jia family were preparing to leave the house and enter the palace.

At that time, Chu Jian also had to leave.

Maybe the other party will find a reason to trick her away, or even kidnap her directly.

At that time, the attention of everyone from the four major families was on the palace.

So that was the best time.

Luo Zijun was thinking this and was about to enter the alley when he suddenly saw a familiar figure walking out of the alley.

She is wearing a green jacket and a blue skirt, has a slender figure, a pretty appearance, and is graceful and beautiful. She is Qingwen, who is known as the Little Lin Daiyu!
Luo Zijun's expression changed, and he immediately stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Miss Qingwen."

Qingwen was walking hurriedly when she saw someone coming over to talk. She was startled and thought someone was coming to chat with her. Just as she was about to glare and scold him, she suddenly saw who it was and asked in surprise, "Master Luo? Why are you here?"

Luo Zijun did not exchange pleasantries, but quickly asked, "Is Miss Liu in your house?"

Qingwen was startled when she heard this, then smiled and said, "So you came here for Miss Liu. She is here, talking to some girls in the backyard."

When Luo Zijun heard this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Sure enough, his guess was right.

The other party is not in a hurry to take action now, but is waiting for the best opportunity.

Qingwen laughed and said, "Why, Master Luo came here in such a hurry alone? Are you afraid that our young lady from the Jia family will eat your young lady Liu?"

Luo Zijun said: "No, I was just passing by and asked casually."

Qingwen asked, "Passing by? Isn't Mr. Luo going to our Jia Mansion?"

Luo Zijun said, "No, I was going to look for a friend over there. Where's Miss Qingwen? Why did you come out alone?"

Qingwen smiled and said, "I was going to the clothing store to buy some things, just small things, but I was afraid that the maids wouldn't be able to buy them well, so I came out by myself."

Luo Zijun had something else to do, so he didn't chat with her anymore. He bowed and said, "Then I won't bother you, young lady. I have to go meet my friends too."

After saying that, he said goodbye and left, walking directly towards the street ahead.

Qingwen hesitated for a moment, and suddenly said to his back: "Mr. Luo, do the things you said to me last time still count?"

Luo Zijun paused, turned his head and looked at her and asked, "What?"

Qingwen's eyes suddenly turned dark, and she said, "Mr. Luo said that if I can't survive in the Jia Mansion anymore, I will come to you. Has Mr. Luo forgotten about it?"

Luo Zijun was startled and said, "It counts."

Qingwen then smiled and said, "Thank you, sir."

After saying that, he waved his hand and left briskly.

Luo Zijun also left quickly, walked around an alley, and immediately headed towards Bai Mansion.

He thought about it carefully.

If we go to the Jia Mansion now, we will definitely alert the enemy.

If the other party gave up today, there would naturally be tomorrow. In that case, he and Chu Jian would always be in danger.

Therefore, he had to find a way to solve this problem completely.

He decided to go back to find Miss Bai San and use the power of the Bai family to completely eliminate those people tonight.

As for the mastermind behind the scenes...

If he guessed correctly, it should be Lai Da who was hiding in the Jia family.

Let's deal with these minions tonight and then deal with him later.

It would be best if we could get something out of these minions.

Thinking all the way, he soon returned to Anguo Mansion.

It was already 3 p.m.

Bai Qingtong was at home, preparing with others for a banquet at the palace tonight.

Many female members of the Bai family entered the palace for the first time.

Therefore, there are many rules that need to be taught in advance to avoid losing etiquette when facing the nobles in the palace.

When Bai Qingtong saw him, she said immediately without waiting for him to speak: "Brother-in-law, where have you been again? I have asked Hua'er to look for you several times. You will be entering the palace in the evening, and there are some rules that I need to explain to you."

Luo Zijun said directly: "Miss San, I have something to talk to you about. Can we go out and talk?"

At this time, Bai Qingtong was talking to a group of people in the courtyard. He was stunned when he heard the words, and without any hesitation, he immediately walked out the door.

"Brother-in-law, what's the matter?"

When he arrived at the door, Bai Qingtong immediately asked.

Seeing that there was no one around, Luo Zijun approached her and whispered, "Third Miss, I need your help with something. It's about Miss Liu and also about me."

Bai Qingtong saw that his expression was not right, and hurriedly said: "Brother-in-law, please speak."

Luo Zijun whispered, "I received news today that someone wants to kidnap Chu Jian when we enter the palace, and then lure me over and kill me." As soon as these words came out, Bai Qingtong's face changed.

Luo Zijun continued, "Chu Jian is now in the Jia Mansion. If I am not mistaken, when the women of the Jia Mansion go out in the evening, Chu Jian will leave on her own. Then, someone will take the opportunity to trick her away or kidnap her..."

Bai Qingtong frowned slightly and asked, "What does my brother-in-law want me to do?"

She did not ask the source of the news, nor did she doubt the truth of it.

Luo Zijun said: "I would like to ask Miss San to go over and protect her, ask about her situation, and secretly send someone to help me catch those people."

Bai Qingtong nodded without any hesitation and said, "Okay."

Luo Zijun quickly told her his other guesses and the possible ambush location of the other party.

"The land temple in the south of the city?"

After listening to this, Bai Qingtong's eyes flashed with coldness, and he said, "Brother-in-law, don't worry, you are from my Bai family. Since those people want to hurt you, I will definitely not let them go tonight."

Then he added, "Brother-in-law, don't worry. Just stay at home. I will take people to solve this matter. If there is any situation, I will send someone back to inform you."

After saying that, she immediately entered the house and said to the people in the courtyard, "You don't have to wait for me in the evening. You can go with mother and the others. I have some things to do and need to go to the Jia Mansion. When the time comes, I will go to the palace with the people from the Jia Mansion."

After giving the instructions, she came out with her maid and nanny and went directly to find the leader of the guards, Chu Jingzhong.

Chu Jingzhong is a martial artist with the cultivation of a martial artist. He is a relative of her mother Chu Meixiang, and can be considered as one of her uncles. He has followed her mother as a servant since she got married, and has been loyal to the Bai family for so many years.

Soon, several carriages, surrounded by guards, drove out of the door and headed for the Jia Mansion.

at the same time.

Luo Zijun returned to Junziju, said something to Xiaohuan and Zhiyuan, and left.

After changing into tight clothes and putting on a bamboo hat in the alley, he went directly to the land temple in the south of the city.

He planned to go and investigate first.

Bai Qingtong's carriage soon arrived at the Jia Mansion.

When everyone in the Jia family heard the news, they hurried out to greet them, but at the same time, they were all a little confused.

Aren’t you going to enter the palace soon?

Bai Qingtong got off the carriage and entered the Bai residence, surrounded by several maids and nannies. She smiled at Jia Tanchun and the others who came out to greet her, "I came here to ask how many people will go to the palace tonight, and how many servants will be brought with you. I'm afraid that if too many people go, it will not be good, but if too few people come, they are afraid that we don't pay enough attention, which is a bit embarrassing. I believe that Concubine Jia should remind you, right?"

Seeing that she came for this matter, Jia Tanchun smiled and said, "Most of the women in our Jia family will go, and the old ancestor will also go, but the maids and nannies will only bring one person. As for the guards, they will naturally stay outside the palace."

The two of them talked as they entered the mansion.

Bai Qingtong said: "I will go to the palace with you guys later and won't go back home."

Jia Tanchun smiled and said, "Of course it is good."

The group went to the backyard and saw that there were no other servants around. Bai Qingtong suddenly asked in a low voice: "Is Miss Liu here?"

Jia Tanchun was stunned when she heard this, and asked in confusion: "How do you know?"

Bai Qingtong smiled, pulled her aside, and said, "Tanchun, I have something to say to you."

Jia Tanchun glanced at him and asked the maids and nannies to stay where they were.

The two walked to the side.

Bai Qingtong whispered in her ear the purpose of her trip.

After hearing this, Jia Tanchun's expression changed slightly, but soon returned to normal, and she smiled and said, "I was wondering what it was, wasn't it just that you wanted to see the fan I just got? You are so mysterious, come on, I'll show it to you, and if you like it, I'll give it to you."

Bai Qingtong smiled and said, "When did Tanchun become so generous?"

Jia Tanchun rolled her eyes and said, "Have I ever been stingy?"

The two chatted and laughed as they went to the courtyard at the back.

As soon as she entered the room, Jia Tanchun's expression froze and she whispered, "Qingtong, is this true?"

Bai Qingtong asked, "Let me ask you, was it you who took the initiative to ask Xiaochan to invite Miss Liu to the Jia Mansion?"

Jia Tanchun was about to nod when her expression suddenly changed slightly.

After a pause, she frowned and said, "I had not thought of this at first. After all, we are going to enter the palace tonight. At about noon today, one of Sister Yingchun's maids came to tell me secretly that Sister Yingchun looked a little disappointed and unhappy, so she suggested that I invite Miss Liu to come over to have a chat, to have some fun together, and to get closer to Miss Liu, after all, Sister Yingchun will live there in the future..."

"I listened and thought it made sense. Cui Mo, I and others were busy at the time, so I let Xiao Chan go..."

Bai Qingtong asked again: "Is that nanny still in the mansion now?"

Jia Tanchun said, "She is still there. She should still be with Sister Yingchun. Miss Liu and Daiyu are also there."

Bai Qingtong asked, "How long has that nanny been in your house?"

Jia Tanchun thought for a moment and said, "It's been at least a dozen years. She has always been with Sister Yingchun and is usually a good person."

Bai Qingtong thought for a moment and asked again: "Where are her family members?"

Jia Tanchun thought about it carefully and said, "I only heard that she has a son and grandson in Lin County. I occasionally take leave to visit them. It's not far away."

Bai Qingtong remained silent and said nothing more.

Jia Tanchun asked, "Should we bring her here for questioning?"

Bai Qingtong said quickly: "Don't rush, don't alert the enemy yet, wait until the evening and see what happens. However, you can ask a maid to keep an eye on them first. If she really passes on the news, she will definitely be exposed."

Jia Tanchun nodded and said coldly, "If she is really a traitor, I will never let her go!"

Bai Qingtong said: "Let's go, let's go talk to Miss Liu."

The two of them went out and, surrounded by a group of maids and nannies, went to the backyard to see Lady Jia.

at the same time.

Luo Zijun also transformed into a handsome man from the East and came to the land temple in the south of the city.
