Chapter 517: Night Comes
The girl, about fourteen or fifteen years old, was wearing a thin robe of crow blue, and her face was very beautiful, and she was looking at him with a smile.
Beside her, there was an old servant woman with a sinister face, followed by several people in black, with a solemn face and murderous aura, and at a glance she knew that it was a secret guard or a dead man.
A beautiful girl, a few dead soldiers, and the corpses that had been thrown in earlier, this strange situation made him feel a sense of horror in his heart.
Who is this girl? Why come here in the dark?
Qin Yi didn't know, but what he knew was that this girl didn't have good intentions!
Qin Yi restrained his light tremor and roared in a deep voice, "Who are you? What's the intent?! This is the Chengguo Mansion, and there are Jingzhao soldiers outside the mansion, leave quickly! β
Qin Yi has already sensed that something is wrong, the huge Chengguo Mansion is silent, what about the family in the mansion? What about the Jingzhao guards guarding the front door and the back door? Where have they gone?
Qin Yi knows martial arts, and his martial arts are quite good, but he is definitely not the opponent of these dead soldiers. He wondered if it would be useful if he shouted for help.
This girl, Gu Yan, said with a smile: "Grandpa Guo, aren't these dead soldiers you sent trying to deal with me?" Who am I, don't you know? β
Hearing her say this, Qin Yi's eyes widened, and he shouted loudly: "You are a descendant of the Yuan family?!" No, there are no girls in the Yuan family! β
The corners of Gu Yan's mouth were raised, but his eyes were cold. Sure enough, Qin Yi suspected that the person who dealt with him was a descendant of the Yuan family.
Therefore, these dead soldiers sent by the Chengguo Mansion must be going to report to Emperor Chongde!
When Gu Yan received a report from the secret guard that Qin Yi laughed and said about the Shen family. She knew that Qin Yi must have guessed that Shen Du was the descendant of the Yuan family, so she immediately ordered that the people of the Chengguo Mansion must not be allowed to leave.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for dead soldiers to come out of the Chengguo Mansion. These dead soldiers were captured by the Shen family's secret guards and Chen Tongji's people.
For the dead, if they are caught, there is only one end, only death.
At this time, the Shen family's secret guards didn't need them to provide any clues. The Jiangnan Treasury has been discovered, and what is waiting for the Chengguo Mansion will inevitably be overturned.
What they're going to do. It is the power to annihilate all the shadows of the Chengguo Mansion. That's all.
After ordering the dark guards to send these dead soldiers back to the Chengguo Mansion, she also ordered the dark guards to escort them to the Chengguo Mansion.
Hearing this order, Mama Feng and Qu Yao were deeply surprised, they didn't understand why Gu Yan wanted to come to see Qin Yi. But she was escorted anyway.
Gu Yan smiled. said: "Didn't Grandpa Guo even burn down the Yuan family back then. Has every corpse been checked? Why do you still think that the Yuan family will have descendants? β
Her words, on the contrary, are clearly acknowledging Qin Yi's words.
And these words she said. It was exactly what Qin Yi couldn't figure out, so he ignored it for so many years, and didn't pay attention to Shen Du at all.
Back then, Emperor Chongde ordered the extermination of the Yuan family, and it was he who took his cronies to carefully check every corpse of the Yuan family, and the four generations of the Yuan family from top to bottom had no mistakes or omissions.
Moreover, Shen Du was Shen Su's righteous son, so he never doubted it at all. When the Yuan family was not destroyed, the patriarch of the Yuan family and Shen Su disagreed, and they were fighting each other in private, as if they were enemies.
When Shen Su was extremely angry, he also pointed at the patriarch of the Yuan family and said, "Old horseman, you can't be careful that you can't get through the last few years!"
Later, Shen Su left Jingzhao for no reason. A year later, the Yuan family was wiped out, and as Shen Su said, the Yuan family could not survive the last few years.
In this way, how could the descendants of the Yuan family be the righteous sons of Shen Su?
If it weren't for so many things happening, if it weren't for the fact that there was no one else besides the Yuan family, he wouldn't have boldly guessed that it was Shen Du.
This situation will happen, indicating that there must have been mistakes and omissions during the autopsy at that time, and someone from the Yuan family survived.
That's why he sent dead men to tell the emperor about his speculation.
But these dead soldiers are now corpses.
He himself is also more auspicious. - This girl is not a secret guard, and she will never come to visit him.
Thinking of this, he asked, "Who are you?" Coming for the Yuan family? β
From the time the secret guard was killed, Qin Yi knew that even if Shen Su and Shen Du left Jingzhao, there were still people who were closely monitoring the Chengguo Mansion. This girl, I, am I from the Shen family?
Gu Yan smiled and explained his identity: "Grandpa Guo, I am Gu Yan."
Gu Yan? Gu Yan...... Shen Du's fiancΓ©e, Gu Zhan's granddaughter, Gu Zhongzhongting's niece?
Also, the senior monk of Dingyuan Temple said that Gu Yan "marriage is in Guizhang"?
"What are you doing here?!" Qin Yi roared, the hand hanging by his side trembled even more obviously.
Gu Yan, a boudoir girl, came to the Chengguo Mansion at this time, no matter what it was for, it was enough to make Qin Yi feel a huge danger.
So unscrupulous, proves...... They don't have a national mansion in their eyes!
Gu Yan saw Qin Yi's hand, his eyebrows were crooked, and he continued: "Grandpa Guo, don't be afraid. I can't figure out one thing, so I'm here to ask Grandpa Guo to solve my doubts. β
Puzzle, what is it?
Qin Yi waited for Gu Yan to express his doubts, and his heart became more vigilant. Because, just now he roared so loudly, there was still no movement in the house. Are all people dead?
Gu Yan ignored what he was thinking, and continued: "Grandpa Guo, I really want to know, how did the emperor give you an order back then?"
Why did the emperor deal with the Yuan family, no one knows. The Yuan family has been the pillar of the Yuan family for generations, and what did he do wrong so that the emperor must get rid of it?
These, Shen Su and Shen Du are not clear. Gu Yan didn't understand even more, what was the situation when Qin Yi was ordered?
Hearing this question, Qin Yi's eyes turned, and then said, "This question, I can tell you, I was ...... at the time"
As he spoke, he turned around quickly, wanting to take advantage of Gu Yan and the others not paying attention, so that he could get out and leave. After all, this is the Chengguo Mansion, as long as he gets out of the sight of these people, he will be safe.
However, as soon as he turned around, two sharp swords were constantly across his neck. The black-clothed people behind Gu Yan moved to his side like ghosts, and he couldn't see their movements clearly at all.
This time, Gu Yan stopped laughing, looked at Qin Yi coldly, and said, "Grandpa Guo, what are you running?" I just wanted to ask you to clear up your doubts. Grandpa Guo just said it truthfully. What are you afraid of? β
Qin Yi looked at the sharp sword at his neck, and the cold light reflected his frightened expression.
He is a dignified and super-grade national prince, and he was actually caught by someone with a sharp sword!
Since he was born, with the support of the Chengguo Mansion, how could there have been such a moment? Even, except for the emperor and the crown prince, no one dared to be disrespectful to him.
But now, his life is in the hands of someone else!
