Chapter 120 The fish is dead and the net is broken
But when they arrived at the secret room, it was already empty. They searched the surrounding area but could not find any trace of Liu Yu.
"Xiao Jia, are you sure the news is true?"
Xiao Jia was puzzled: "How could there be nothing? Was I deceived by that boy?"
"No, Yu'er was indeed imprisoned here." Aunt Wei walked out of the secret room, holding a plain hairpin flower in her hand, which was the one Liu Yu usually wore on her head.
Her tears flowed again.
Liu Yan raised his hand to wipe away the tears from her eyes and took the hairpin from her hand:
"I will find our Yu'er." He quickly and loudly ordered: "Xiaoluo, Xiaoluo, search for me, search room by room, even if you have to turn the entire Pingnan Marquis Mansion upside down, you must find the fifth girl for me."
"Yes." Xiao Liu and Xiao Liu quickly headed east and west, swords in hand, and surrounded the backyard of Pingnan Marquis's mansion, searching room by room.
Liu Yan walked directly towards Qiu's Fuhe Hall. The murderous aura he exuded frightened the servants passing by and made them retreat in fear.
"Why did that lunatic come out?" A fourth-class maid in green clothes was so scared that she dropped the things in her hands.
Someone pushed her with his hand:
"Hurry up and leave. Don't you see he has a knife in his hand? If he chases you and cuts you, what will you do?"
"Let's go quickly..."
"..."
The fourth-rank maid in green clothes didn't even want the things on the ground, and crawled away, chasing after everyone.
I was afraid that I would become a lucky person like Qiu.
As time went by, Liu Yan went deeper and the noise they made startled the guards of Pingnan Marquis's mansion.
The guards wanted to stop him, but seeing Liu Yan's red eyes, they were defeated.
You know, this crazy old man almost chopped the old lady to death last time, how could they not be afraid.
Liu Yan lowered his head, as if he didn't see them, and rushed into the lobby like a madman, shouting loudly: "Give me back my daughter, Qiu, give me back my daughter."
In the blink of an eye, he had already rushed to the lobby of Fuhe Hall. When he saw that no one was there, he quickly changed direction and went to search Qiu's bedroom, but still found nothing. Then he went to the ear room, and continued until he had searched half of Fuhe Hall.
Liu Yan's heart sank to the bottom, his eyes seemed to be blank, and he suddenly turned around to look towards the entrance of Fuhe Hall.
The housekeeper who rushed over after hearing the news shuddered as he saw Liu Yan's blood-red eyes staring at him inside Fuhe Hall.
An unprecedented sense of crisis enveloped my heart.
He quickly shouted to the guards:
"Stop him now."
The guards looked at each other. It was impossible for them not to move at this moment. They quickly dispersed to both sides, but blocked the direction of the bedroom.
They were completely unaware that Liu Yan had changed his target.
The housekeeper cursed inwardly, "What a fool!" and watched Liu Yan rushing towards him with a knife in hand.
"Damn it." The housekeeper turned and ran.
But he was still caught up by Liu Yan, who grabbed his chest with one hand, strangled him, and put the tip of the knife in his throat.
By the time the guards reacted, the butler was completely controlled by Liu Yan.
Things suddenly changed, the guards didn't dare to fight,
But we can't ignore the housekeeper.
The guard leader could only muster up his courage and try to communicate with Liu Yan:
"Master, let's talk it over. The fifth girl has been given to the third master of the Chen family as a concubine. She should be in the Chen residence now. Have you forgotten?"
"Put down the knife in your hand. I will take you to find the fifth girl."
Liu Yan sneered in his heart. Do you really think he is a lunatic? His face was still crazy. He looked down at the butler who was strangled by him and growled hoarsely in his ear:
"Give my daughter back to me, give my daughter back to me. If you don't, I will kill you." As soon as he finished speaking, he exerted force with his hands, and the tip of the knife immediately cut the skin on the butler's throat.
Just before being caught, the housekeeper was still thinking, how can I trick this madman into letting me go?
But at this moment, the severe pain in his neck told him that if he continued to hope in luck, his life might be lost here.
"I said..." The housekeeper told Liu Yan without any hesitation that Liu Yu was locked up in Fengya Pavilion.
Seeing such a big commotion here, Xiao Liu and Xiao Liu immediately dealt with the people who were besieging them and gathered around.
Aunt Wei, who had been hidden in the dark by Liu Yan just now, also came out when she saw this and followed them to Fengya Pavilion.
It seemed that all their luck had been used up in Fuhetang. As soon as they stepped into Fengya Pavilion, they ran into Liu Zhang. Liu Zhang was surrounded by the masters who used to follow the old marquis.
"My Lord, please save me." The butler was delighted and shouted for help to Liu Zhang.
Liu Zhang turned around and looked at the sound.
It was too late for Liu Yan and his companions to hide, and they ran into Liu Zhang. A solemn look appeared on his face, which was hidden by his hair.
"Brother?" Liu Zhang looked at this scene in confusion, his brows furrowed. His voice was full of majesty as he commanded forcefully:
"What are you doing? Let the butler go quickly."
Liu Yan pretended not to hear anything, stepped over the threshold holding the butler hostage, and walked into Fengya Pavilion fearlessly.
"Yu'er, Daddy is here to see you."
……
In the bedroom,
Liu Yu, who was sitting in front of the bronze mirror, was shocked. She suddenly waved away the maid who was about to put makeup on her, and pricked up her ears to carefully identify the source of the sound.
But no matter how hard she tried, the sound just now was like an illusion and never appeared again.
But Liu Yu believed that she couldn't be hallucinating, so there was only one possibility: Liu Yan came to find her.
No.
This time, Qiu had the courage to place her in the Marquis of Pingnan's residence and keep her in Fengya Pavilion. She must have something to rely on.
Even if Xiao Yu and the others were there, they would not be able to gain any advantage under the Qiu family's blockade and absolute advantage.
And if Qiu finds out that Liu is pretending to be crazy, that would be really dangerous.
Liu Yu stood up suddenly, turned around without any warning, ran to the door and opened it.
"Yu girl, where do you want to go?" Liu Zhang was standing at the door. Although he had a smile on his face, the smile did not reach his eyes, and there was even disgust mixed in it.
Liu Yu bowed and saluted symbolically, then glanced across the yard outside. It was empty at this moment, with no sign of Liu Yan at all.
She looked at Liu Zhang at the door and asked with a smile:
"Uncle, where is my father?"
"Your father?" Liu Zhang didn't want to cause any trouble, so he didn't admit that Liu Yan had been there, so he said perfunctorily: "He should be in the North Courtyard!"
"That's impossible! I just heard his voice. Are you sure Uncle didn't lie to me?"
Being exposed on the spot, Liu Zhang's face visibly darkened: "Liu Yu, this is how you should behave when meeting your elders."
A cold light flashed in Liu Yu's eyes. "Marquis Pingnan, do you still think I'm the same fool as before, who believed everything you said? I advise you to tell me where my father is. Otherwise, we will both die together."
