Chapter 433 Feng Wuhen Comes
She gritted her teeth, trying to suppress her anger, her hands clenched into fists, her nails digging deeply into her palms.
"This damn person!"
Jiang Yimo cursed with gritted teeth, a hint of murderous intent flashing in her eyes.
"You'd better not fall into my hands, otherwise, I will make you live a life worse than death."
She secretly swore that if she had the chance, she would make the man in black pay the price.
"Come here, tie these two little maids to the iron pillar."
At the command given by the man in black robe, several men in black immediately stepped forward, dragged Jiang Yimo's two maids to the iron pillar, and tied them up tightly with ropes.
"Miss Jiang, if you delay telling me the whereabouts of those thousand-year-old lotuses, I will have them cut off their fingers."
"Come here, start cutting now, and remember to use a blunt knife."
His voice was cold and emotionless, as if there was no trace of emotion.
Following his order, one of his subordinates in black immediately stepped forward with a sharp dagger in his hand, but the blade was deliberately blunted.
When Qingzhu and Qingnuan saw that he had a dagger in his hand, their eyes widened, filled with fear and despair.
The two of them are about the same age as Jiang Yimo. After all, they are still girls of seventeen or eighteen years old. If they say they are not afraid when facing such a situation, it would be a lie.
They looked at the blunt knife, imagining that it was about to cut off their own and their companions' fingers, and they felt fear in their hearts.
The man in black walked up to the two men and raised his blunt knife.
Qingzhu and Qingnuan trembled, closed their eyes tightly, and waited for the pain to come.
Time seemed to freeze, and every second seemed to be so long.
Finally, the black-clothed man's hand slowly dropped, and the blunt knife touched Qingzhu's fingers.
Qingzhu was gritting his teeth, ready to endure it all.
But at this moment, Jiang Yimo slightly closed her eyes, then suddenly opened them and shouted, "I'll tell you where the thousand-year-old lotus is! Please don't hurt them!"
"Okay, tell me quickly, where are those thousand-year-old lotuses kept?"
The man in black robe asked impatiently, greed and eagerness flashing in his eyes.
He couldn't wait to get such a precious thousand-year-old lotus, as if he could already see endless wealth and power beckoning before him.
Jiang Yimo took a deep breath and tried to keep herself calm.
She knew that the situation was extremely critical. If she didn't find a way to get rid of these men in black robes as soon as possible, the consequences would be disastrous.
She gritted her teeth and decided to tell a lie to delay time.
"It's in the library in the forbidden area of the palace. Go ahead."
Jiang Yimo said this seriously, with a hint of firmness in her voice.
She knew this lie would be easily exposed, but she had no choice but to take the risk.
After hearing this, the man in black robe frowned slightly, seeming to be a little skeptical about this answer.
But they did not ask any further questions immediately. Instead, they looked at each other and turned away.
Looking at the black-robed man's receding back, Jiang Yimo breathed a sigh of relief.
She knew that this lie could only hold the other party back temporarily. Once they found out they had been deceived, they would definitely come back to settle the score with her.
But right now, she needs to find a chance to escape as soon as possible.
However, the men in black robes had not walked far when they suddenly stopped and turned to look at Jiang Yimo.
Jiang Yimo's heart tightened and she secretly thought that something was wrong.
Did he realize that he was lying?
At this moment, her eyes became extremely nervous, and she stared at the man in black robe, as if she wanted to see through him.
The palms of my hands were covered in sweat and were trembling slightly.
However, in the next second, the man in black robe suddenly gave an order to his subordinates: "Take her with you."
The "she" here naturally refers to Jiang Yimo.
After the man in black robe said this, he turned around without hesitation and continued walking forward.
Jiang Yimo stood there in a daze, feeling a little overwhelmed for a moment.
But soon, she came to her senses, hurriedly chased after him, and called out to the man in black robe again.
"Wait!" Jiang Yimo shouted, "When will you release these two maids of mine?"
There was a hint of anxiety and uneasiness in her voice.
After hearing her words, the man in black robe slowly turned around and glanced at her coldly.
A sneer curled up at the corner of his mouth.
Then he walked away quickly without looking back.
Obviously, he didn't take Jiang Yimo's request seriously at all.
It was simply wishful thinking to expect him to release those two little maids.
Jiang Yimo also guessed that he would not keep his promise and release Qingzhu and Qingnuan, but it was good enough that Qingzhu and Qingnuan were not in danger of life for now.
Now, no one knows whether Feng Wuhen has discovered that he is missing.
……
At this moment, the people in the Evil King's Mansion had already known the news about Jiang Yimo and her two servants.
This news was brought back by a secret guard arranged by Feng Wuhen to be beside Jiang Yimo.
Feng Wuhen had always arranged two secret guards to protect Jiang Yimo in secret, ensure her safety, and report her situation to Feng Wuhen at any time.
During the day, the two secret guards saw that there were too many people in the group and they were holding Jiang Yimo hostage, so they did not dare to act rashly.
They knew very well that they were outnumbered and if they fought hard, not only would they fail to save Jiang Yimo, but they might put her in a more dangerous situation.
So, the two of them discussed and decided to act separately.
One of them hurriedly flew back to the palace to report to Feng Wuhen what had happened here.
The other continued to follow the men in black in order to understand their movements and destinations.
In this way, the message can be delivered to Feng Wuhen in time, and the trace of the man in black can be ensured not to be lost.
When Feng Wuhen learned that Jiang Yimo was kidnapped, he took several guards and followed the clues left by the secret guard.
Finally they stopped outside a large estate.
"Shadow, go check to see who owns this large manor."
Feng Wuhen narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a hint of doubt and vigilance.
Upon hearing this, Shadow immediately took the order and left, his figure quickly disappearing into the night.
Time passed minute by minute, and Feng Wuhen stood there quietly waiting.
Finally, Shadow's figure appeared in front of him again, his face looking a little solemn.
"Your Majesty, I have already investigated it thoroughly."
"This manor is owned by a wealthy businessman in the imperial city, but the identity of this businessman is mysterious and seems to have a close connection with the royal family." Shadow said in a low voice.
Feng Wuhen frowned, feeling uneasy.
He knew that to own such a large estate near the imperial city, this wealthy businessman must have a strong background and close ties with the royal family.
Feng Wuhen thought secretly, his eyes fixed on the large manor that was brightly lit.
A person suddenly came to his mind.
He whispered to Shadow, "Shadow, follow me into the manor. The others stay and observe, and wait for orders."
Shadow nodded, and the two of them quietly approached the large manor.
