During the Jade Rabbit Festival in the Ding capital, every year there would be numerous young ladies who would be abducted by kidnappers. If it was a male child, it would be better. Most likely they would be sold to those remote places that were unable to give birth to children, to be a son. If it was a female child or a young female, then it would be miserable. Those who did not have good looks would be passed around a few times by the traffickers and sold to a large family to be a servant girl. If they were good looking, they would not be as good as those with average looks. Perhaps they would be sold to an opera troupe or perhaps they would be sold to a brothel or simply become a Yangzhou skinny horse. After being trained for a few years, they would become a pet for the nobles to play with.
Among these females, there was no lack of large families but when it came to kidnappers, there was no difference in family background. No matter if one was a young lady from a large family or a commoner, once one was in the hands of a kidnapper, everyone would be the same.
"Shen Young Lady was abducted by kidnappers?" In the room, Ji Yu Shu suddenly stood up and paced back and forth, showing some worry, "Shen Young Lady is not bad looking and has an outstanding bearing. One fear that if she falls into the hands of kidnappers, she would definitely be sold. Even though I also like Young Lady Shao Yao, I do not wish for Shen Young Lady to become a young lady. Third Xie Older Brother, do we go and save her? "
Gao Yang scoffed at Ji Yu Shu's words, "Are you alright? With Shen Miao's means, how could she be abducted by kidnappers? Moreover kidnappers would only pick single young ladies or lost children. Shen Qiu and Shen Xin are not far from Shen Miao and those kidnappers are not fools. How would they pick such a big thorn? Shen Miao's looks are also not an outstanding beauty so it is not worth it. "
These words were not wrong. When kidnappers abduct people, they would do it when people were not paying attention. Even if they abducted and sold a Young Lady from an official's family, they would also pick a time when that Young Lady was not around. But the people who investigated the news said that at that time Shen Miao was by the Wan Li Lake and at that time the crowd was surging. Even though it was easy for the kidnappers to make their move but if they were not careful and were discovered, they would not be able to escape with so many people. Such a risky matter, if it was for an outstanding beauty, it would still be justifiable. Shen Miao was after all a young lady and even though she was not bad, it was not to the point where one would lose one's rationality.
The most important thing was that at that time Shen Qiu and Shen Xin were not far away. Since ancient times, bullying the weak and fearing the strong was the norm that bad people followed. Obviously knowing that Shen Xin's family did not look like they were good to provoke, how would the kidnapper find trouble for himself. It was a risky and unprofitable business, unless the kidnapper was a fool too.
Ji Yu Shu was suddenly enlightened, "So to speak, it was not done by kidnappers? Who could it be? This is obviously directed at Shen Young Lady. Could it be the remaining party of Prince Yu residence? " As he spoke he shook his head, "Prince Yu's people did not know that the extermination of the entire family was related to Shen Miao. Could it be the Shen family's people? I heard that the Shen family is not on good terms. Could it be someone from the other branches? "
Xie Jing Xing, who had been sitting silently by the side, stood up and said, "It's' them '."
"They?" Gao Yang suddenly became nervous and looked at Xie Jing Xing, "They have already found out?"
"I don't think so." Xie Jing Xing shook his head. "I was waiting for them to make a move, but nothing happened. Now he understood that they might have known about the secret chamber and did not know what methods they used to know that Shen Miao was present that day. Our identity has not been exposed, so they planned to find out from Shen Miao's mouth. "
"They were sent by you?" Ji Yu Shu was surprised for a moment before he felt a headache, "Oh no. With those people's methods, Shen Young Lady would not feel good if she landed in their hands."
"Let the Mo Yu Army's secret department come out to search. Search along the surroundings of the Wan Li Lake. There are many eyes and they should not have gone far." Xie Jing Xing said in a deep voice. The casual expression on his face was completely gone and his solemn look was not like that of a seventeen or eighteen year old youth, but had an unfathomable chill.
