Chapter 1671: As Early As Possible?

Chun Hua and Xia Hua said, “No, we didn’t see which hand of hers was injured. She only opened the door a little and stretched out her right hand to take the medicine box. She probably accidentally cut her left hand.”

Shao Boqi was sure that something was wrong.

If she cut her hand, why would she not want to open the door? She even reached out with one hand to take the medicine box.

Could it be… If the thief who was missing was in his residence in his daughter’s room…

Thinking of this, Shao Boqi was instantly shocked.

If he was really in his daughter’s room, wouldn’t his daughter be held hostage?

According to his second brother, the thief was most likely the attendant of Censor w.a.n.g who was named Sun Ai in the Beicheng diplomatic team… But no matter who it was, his daughter was in danger if she was being held hostage!

Shao Boqi didn’t tell his suspicions to the two maids in front of him, lest they panic and ruin things. He just hurried to the front hall and secretly ordered a subordinate. “Go and fetch my brother back.”

“Yes, sir!” The subordinate immediately left.

Shao Zhongxi had just arrived at the entrance of the manor. Before he could enter, he saw his elder brother’s subordinate riding over hurriedly. Before he could even catch his breath, he whispered into his ear, “The Duke wants to bring you back. He said that the thief from the Ministry of Works might be in his daughter’s room.”

When Shao Zhongxi heard this, he immediately mounted his horse and hurried back to where he was.

Shao Boqi secretly asked people to pay attention to the situation in his daughter’s small courtyard. At the same time, he didn’t light up the front. He only lit up some street lamps as usual. After all, it was late at night. If the front was brightly lit, it would be easy for the culprit in his daughter’s room to notice that something was wrong. He didn’t stay in the front hall but came to the door. When he saw his brother return, he quickly whispered everything to his brother in detail.

“What do you plan to do?” Shao Zhongxi asked.

“To ensure that Yucen is safe and capture him alive,” said Shao Boqi. If they could catch him alive, they could interrogate him.

Otherwise, if he died, they might never know who the person behind this person was.

“That’s a little difficult,” Shao Zhongxi said.

“I know it’s difficult. If Yucen had some martial arts skills, it would be fine, but she doesn’t have any skills at all. She’s always panicking when she’s afraid and doesn’t know what to do. She can’t calm down in stressful situations. She’s brainless. Even if we plan well, she might get injured or lose her life. Should we report this to the Emperor?” he asked after a pause.

” I don’t know yet,” Shao Zhongxi said.” I just think it’s very possible that he’s there but there is a chance that he isn’t. Let’s not report it yet.”

“I also think it’s better not to report it yet,” said Shao Boqi. Moreover, there was only one person who had sneaked into the Ministry of Works, and there was no one else to receive him. There must not be many people involved. If it was just one person, it would be very easy to deal with him.”

Shao Zhongxi thought for a moment. Then, he said, “This person is injured. He won’t immediately want to leave, we should stay and observe what happens next.”

Shao Boqi said, “There’s been no signs of movement, Yucen should be fine too. But I’m afraid that when the person is ready to leave, he will be crazy enough to kill Yucen. There are such people in the world, it’s better to be prepared than not..”

“If we plot early, we’ll alert the enemy,” said Shao Zhongxi.

“I know, but…” Shao Boqi was still worried about his daughter’s safety.

“There’s no need to say anymore,” Shao Zhongxi said. “In that case, we can send a pretty skilled servant girl to find an excuse to knock on Yucen’s door.”
