Qi An hurriedly said, "It is said that we have arrived at Pingpo, and then we have been attacked and returned to the ......."

Pingpo, located in Qidu to Yuyang about one-third of the way, although the name with Ping, but it is really uneven, there are many mountain roads, the road conditions are complicated, if you are not careful, it is a very easy to hide and ambush the lot, no wonder Qi Lao Ye and his party returned, it is estimated that the road in front is also blocked, it can't be done at all.

"Pingpo ......" Qi Rong repeated thoughtfully, looked at the distance and squinted, and then said, "Go to the front hall." ”

After listening to the order, Yun'er immediately stepped forward to hug Qi Rong, and the group hurried to the front yard.

When Mrs. Qi heard the news, her face turned pale, and her still charming face looked even more pitiful, and she tightly grabbed the handkerchief in her hand, but she tried her best to control her feelings, so as not to let her subordinates look too out of shape.

At this moment, someone came in to report, saying that the eldest young master and the young grandmother had come Mrs. Qi's eyes darkened, and she quickly recovered to be as calm as Fang Cai, revealing pitiful energy, and she commanded very godlessly,

"Let them in. ”

Qi Rong stood at the foot of the hall, his face was as white as paper, compared to Mrs. Qi, this is called serious illness and depression, and he made a gesture with a strong voice.

"The child has seen his aunt. ”

Bao Qi also saluted and said goodbye, and then listened to Qi Rong continue,

"When the child heard that his father and second brother were attacked halfway, he was very anxious, so he rushed over to take a look, cough cough cough-"

Saying that, there was a cough that made people's lungs hurt, and the slender body trembled twice, Bao Qi looked at Qi Rong worriedly, patted the other party on the back, and Yun'er hurriedly handed the handkerchief to his young master.

Qi Rong coughed a few times before stopping, and bowed his head very ashamedly,

"The child is not fit and disrespectful. ”

Mrs. Qi paced down, sighed and glanced at Qi Rong, full of sorrow,

"You are not in good health, and it is understandable that this is happening, but I don't know how the master and Yue'er are now, this mansion is up and down, but they must not be missing, they are waiting for them to come back......"

As he spoke, there were tears in his eyes, and the image of a loving mother suddenly flashed, and he used the whole house as an excuse, obviously this was said to Qi Rong, and the people in the house were jointly piggybacked, so naturally they couldn't ask for it.

Bao Qi meekly diverted the topic,

"What my mother said is that everyone in the family is worried about my father and second brother, since the news is from Xiangguofu, instead of waiting here in a hurry, it is better to go directly to Xiangguofu to wait, maybe it can be faster. ”

Mrs. Qi only had a flash of resentment, and in a blink of an eye, she recognized and understood, nodded and said that it was okay.

Then he turned his head to look at Qi Rong, Qi Rong happened to be covering his mouth and coughing a few times, very uncomfortable, Mrs. Qi showed a look of unbearability,

"It's just the body ...... the eldest young master"

Qi Rong bowed down with a dry throat and said,

"It's just that the child's body is too weak, and his body is not supported, if not, he will definitely have to bow down, cough cough - this time, I am afraid that the young grandmother will have to do it for him. ”

After speaking, he hung his head with regret and shame, and his face was disappointed.

Mrs. Qi understood very well and immediately continued,

"I'm also worried about the eldest young master's body, since the eldest young master himself said it, then stay and recuperate, don't be tired. Yun'er, take care of your young master. ”

Yun'er quickly replied with a salute, saying that she should serve seriously.

Before Bao Qi left, he didn't forget to secretly give Qi Rong a look to express his gratitude. went to Xiangguo's Mansion to wait, and naturally had the opportunity to find out more news, but Qi Rong's identity was special, and he was a little sensitive due to illness, so it was inconvenient to go. Bao Qi went, it was a matter of course, and he could take advantage of this meeting to meet Guan Qingtong, many things, knowing more, and the doubts were slowly solved.

Yun'er helped Qi Rong back to the back house, and Qi Rong stood alone in the study, looking at the calligraphy and paintings not far away, not knowing what he was thinking. In the innermost position next to the bookshelf, there was a person standing impressively, with his head bowed and his face hanging down very respectfully, he couldn't see his expression and appearance clearly, only the cold air was very clear.

Qi Rong's eyes are deep, different from the past, even if his body is weak, he can't stop the star-eyed sword light, and he has a bearing,

"Have you sent all the manpower down?"

The cold man speaks the cold words, but he does not reduce the slightest obedience,

"Back to the Lord, a total of eleven men, all of them have been sent down, and they can arrive without a stick of incense. ”

Qi Rong didn't speak, only glanced at the figure behind him, and the man continued,

"The person has also been searched, and the mastermind behind the scenes, I am afraid that it is related to the imperial court, and the rest of the actions are waiting for the lord's orders. ”

Qi Rong squinted, but still coughed lightly twice, the man raised his head worriedly, and then quickly lowered his head, listening to Qi Rong's next question,

"I don't know what Mr. is doing, but I may have to make an appointment to meet Mr. in the near future. ”

"The subordinates will bring the news to Mr. Gongsun. ”

Qi Rong nodded, and then looked at the bookshelf, the figure and the cold air were gone.

Qi Rong called out to Yun'er, her face was as white as paper, her body was as weak as a reed, she propped up the table in front of her, and said in a dry voice, "Help me to the bed, and get me another medicine." ”

Yun'er hurriedly stepped forward, moving skillfully and gently. But Qi Rong's condition was even more serious, and the coughing continued, feeding his young master good medicine, Yun'er ran out with a look of anxiety and worry, looking for someone to ask Mr. Gongsun.

It is said that Bao Qi went to Xiangguo Mansion with Mrs. Qi, and they were greeted by Shangguan Qian and Shangguan Qingtong of Xiangguo, Shangguan Qian was especially dignified, and he sighed deeply when he saw Mrs. Qi coming.

Mrs. Qi looked very bad when she came, and eagerly inquired about the situation of her master and son.

"Lord Shangguan, I don't know if the master is safe, I took the liberty to come to disturb him, and I asked Lord Shangguan to help. ”

Shangguan Qian's face was solemn,

"Mrs. Qi, don't do this, the old man has just sent more people to support, and Old Man Qi will definitely be able to return safely. ”

Bao Qi frowned and followed behind Mrs. Qi, worried, but he could always feel a gaze looking at him, Bao Qi raised his head to meet him with an unretracted face, and met Shangguan Qingtong's eyes calmly, the other party was only surprised, and then his eyes were full of comfort and kindness, and he sat silent.

As soon as Mrs. Qi and Shangguan Qian finished speaking, the guards at the door came to report,

The messenger who followed him came back, and Master Qi and the second son had been rescued safely and returned on the way to Yuyang. ”

Mrs. Qi heard it wrongly, everyone was surprised, Shangguan Qian's face was the most stable, and there was a line on his eyebrows.

"The road ahead will only be more dangerous, why didn't you rescue Master Qi and his party back to the capital?!"

The messenger spoke clearly,

"Back to my lord, when our people arrived, the other party seemed to have been annihilated a lot, and the way to Yuyang was now temporarily unblocked, and there was no more ambush last time. ”
