Chapter 600: Sir, our lady has gone to bed
It's quiet at night.
There was chaos in the main courtyard of the Shen family.
Shen Guannian and Qi accused and cursed each other, but they did not dare to make a big fuss, lest others know that Shen Mingxuan was missing, which would ruin her reputation and the reputation of the Shen family.
All the servants and guards were sent out to look for them, but there was no trace of Shen Mingxuan and the two maids.
Outside the Shen family's gate, Gu Qianhan looked at the lights and the swaying figures coming from inside, frowning, "Jixiang, is it the eldest daughter or Atang who's missing from the Shen family?"
Jixiang hurriedly said, "The guard at our gate said that the Shen family said that you, Master, sent a servant to deliver a letter to their second young lady, asking her to go and treat our lady. However, the second young lady left and has not returned since. There has been no news from her. Therefore, the missing person must be the second young lady."
Gu Qianhan's frown deepened. "It shouldn't be Atang. She has seen almost all the servants in the Duke's Mansion. She must be able to tell the difference in my letter. She should know it's not me."
Jixiang scratched his head: "What if the Second Miss was so worried about Madam's condition that she didn't notice these little details?"
"She's not that careless, but I'll still go in and take a look just in case."
After Gu Qianhan finished speaking, he jumped up and climbed over the wall.
auspicious:"……"
Didn't the young master say he'd go through the Shen family's main gate next time? Didn't he still go in by climbing over the wall?
Gu Qianhan entered the Shen family courtyard. Because the servants and guards had all gone out to look for Shen Mingxuan, there was no one to stop him.
He walked easily across the front yard and went to Shen Wantang's yard.
When he entered Shen Wantang's room, he saw that her four maids were all there, three of them were asleep and one was on guard, so he felt relieved.
If Shen Wantang really wanted to go out, it would be impossible for her to go out without a maid, unless she was going to kill someone.
Du Juan, who was on night watch, was startled when she saw Gu Qianhan come in, but she quickly recognized him. She hesitated for a moment and whispered, "Second Young Master, our young lady has already gone to bed. You come at this time..."
Gu Qianhan waved at her, walked straight into the inner room, lifted the light blue curtain, and sat down beside the bed.
Unexpectedly, Shen Wantang woke up as soon as he sat down.
She opened her eyes and was startled to see a tall figure sitting beside the bed: "You——"
"Atang, it's me."
Gu Qianhan quickly spoke, his tone apologetic: "Sorry, I scared you."
Shen Wantang breathed a sigh of relief. She sat up and glared at him angrily, "Why are you here to scare me in the middle of the night? Sooner or later, I'll be scared to death by you."
Gu Qianhan stepped forward and hugged her in his arms: "I just heard that a young lady from the Shen family went missing, and I was worried about you, so I came to see you. I won't do this next time."
Only then did Shen Wantang understand why he came so late at night.
She knew in her heart that he was afraid that she would be the one missing.
Shen Wantang stretched out her arms and wrapped them around Gu Qianhan's waist. "It's Shen Mingxuan who's missing. Someone pretended to be you and sent me a letter asking me to go treat your mother. Shen Mingxuan insisted on going in my place, and my father and stepmother also insisted on her going, so I just went along with it and gave her the opportunity."
When Gu Qianhan saw her hugging him on her own initiative, a smile appeared on his indifferent face. Well, his trip was not in vain.
"Atang is as smart as I thought. I knew you wouldn't be fooled."
Shen Wantang raised her head and looked at him with amusement: "You know I won't be fooled, but you still come to confirm?"
Gu Qianhan smiled and was about to speak when he suddenly noticed that one of her cheeks was slightly swollen. His smile disappeared instantly: "What's wrong with your face?"
Shen Wantang was stunned. The light was dim and she had applied medicine on her face. How could he still see that there was something wrong with her face?
Is it still very swollen?
Shen Wantang couldn't help but touch her face. It didn't seem very swollen. Her medicine was probably quite effective.
She whispered, "It's nothing, I got hit, but I fought back."
She said it lightly, but Gu Qianhan felt a sharp pain and boundless anger in his heart. The girl he held in his hands, someone in the Shen Mansion actually dared to hit her!
I really don't know how to live or die!
He hugged Shen Wantang tightly, wishing he could take her to live in the Duke's Mansion immediately. This shabby place was not worthy of his Wantang.
It was unknown how long it took before he suppressed his anger, bent down and kissed her: "I'll leave two people for you to use. One is called Qingjin and the other is called Qingyin. Their kung fu is quite good. They don't show up on weekdays, but they are guarding near you. When you need them, just call them."
These two people had both gold and silver, which sounded very auspicious, so Shen Wantang did not refuse and accepted it directly.
"Go to sleep!"
Gu Qianhan put Shen Wantang back on the bed and covered her with a thin blanket: "I'm leaving now."
"Ah."
Shen Wantang responded and closed his eyes.
Gu Qianhan looked at her for a while, leaned over and kissed her again, then went out.
He walked out of the Shen Mansion. Outside, Jixiang was waiting for him: "Sir!"
Gu Qianhan nodded indifferently, then called out loudly: "Hei Yao!"
Hei Yao, dressed in black, appeared silently like a ghost: "Sir, I am here."
"Leave the lapis lazuli and silver to Atang. Guard them day and night. Don't lose them!"
"Yes!"
"Bring a few more people with me and go into the Shen Mansion."
"Yes!"
Hei Yao waved his hand, and Qing Jin Qing Yin leaped into the Shen Mansion without a sound.
Another eight black-clad secret guards emerged from the darkness and stood in unison behind Hei Yao.
Hei Yao asked, "Sir, how do we get in? Make a big scene or leave no trace?"
"Go kick the door open first."
This is what it means to make a big fuss.
"Yes!"
Hei Yao usually does things in secret, but this time he was able to kick the door openly, so he was particularly excited and kicked the door of Shen's house open with one kick.
Jixiang on the side was dumbfounded. So this is how the young master meant to go through the main gate?
He kicked the door down. Can Lord Shen still marry his daughter to him?
While he was stunned, Gu Qianhan had already walked in with Hei Yao and others, and he hurriedly followed.
In the main courtyard, Shen Guannian and Qi had already heard the noise outside. Just as they were about to go out to check, they saw Gu Qianhan walking in swiftly with a group of black-clad men.
Shen Guannian was startled, then overjoyed: "Second Young Master Gu, you came here so late at night because of my daughter's disappearance? Second Young Master, are you willing to help find my daughter?"
Gu Qianhan walked towards the main seat with a cold expression and sat down on the chair.
Jixiang Heiyao and ten other men stood on both sides. Each of the secret guards carried a long sword with a cold glow, with sharp eyes and a sharp edge.
They were so powerful that a sense of oppression instantly swept through the entire room.
The maids and servants were so frightened that they retreated one after another. Even Shen Guannian and Qi were shocked and did not dare to speak for a long time.
The air pressure is getting lower and lower, and the atmosphere is becoming more and more condensed.
Just when Shen Guannian was about to collapse, Gu Qianhan said sternly: "Who hit Atang? Get out here."
