Chapter Eighty-Six: Rescue Against Time
Thinking of this, Ji Huan sighed deeply and frowned. He looked at Qiao An's ethereal back, but he admired Qiao Ann so much, her style of doing things, so down-to-earth and generous.
She knew that she had sent out the Gu family, and things might not be appropriate. She is a junior, she is an elder. On the other hand, she is really ruthless, but she can't help but be honest. In this way, wouldn't it be better to let Ji Huan rats drill bellows at both ends and not be human.
Therefore, her arrangement and decision are so kind, and Ji Huan once again saw her compromise.
"Go and apologize to her, and now that she forgives you, it's easy to say, if she doesn't forgive you, that's the end of the matter."
"Yes, yes, sir." Where does the Gu family dare to be stubborn now, hearing Ji Huan say this, he knows that Ji Huan has been magnanimous to himself, and he nodded like a chicken eating rice.
On the other side, Qiao An had already gone to the mourning hall in the night, but after entering the mourning hall, he saw Li Zhongxuan sitting alone on the coffin in a daze.
Shen Qiaoan smiled and squinted his eyes at Li Zhongxuan. "Brother Zhongxuan, are you thinking about life here?" Li Zhongxuan saw Shen Qiaoan come in, and smiled tiredly, "It's true, Qiao'an, I'm going, you take care of yourself." β
"What do you mean by 'I'm going, you take care of yourself?'?" Shen Qiaoan was originally a smart woman in Bingxue, and the sentence "I'm going, you take care of yourself" But Shen Qiaoan was slightly uneasy, and Qiao An stared at the person in front of him in a daze.
"Joan, it's a long story, but it's enough for you to know that I love you." What else did Li Zhongxuan have to say, at the door, a group of people had already knocked on the door and came in.
When the family opened the door, he found that it was a group of people from the imperial court, but he didn't dare to obstruct it, the leader of that group of people, a man with a full face of flesh, walked in and pointed at him angrily, and said angrily: "If you don't hand over Li Zhongxuan quickly, do you know what is the crime of harboring the invasion of the imperial court?" β
"Oops." When the family saw the menacing arrival, he didn't dare to say a word, and hurriedly ran towards the backyard.
This alarmed the lord and the lady, Ji Huan and the eldest lady came out, because they saw the group of wolf-like palace people at the door, Ji Huan didn't know why he angered them, and hurriedly apologized.
Although he is a first-class official, when it comes to it, he is still afraid of the eagle dogs of the imperial court.
"Master Ji, if it is not the subordinates who have taken the liberty to break in, it is really that the subordinates can't help but come in, and there is still an hour when Li Gongzi is about to go to the guillotine, at this moment, it will not be possible if the subordinates do not come, lest Li Gongzi escape from the battle."
The man said, facing east and holding his fist - "The court blames it, don't say that your subordinates can't afford to eat it, I'm afraid that the adults will have to sit together, and please come out, it's late at night, don't make your subordinates embarrassed." β
Listening to this person's meaning, then Li Gongzi was hiding for himself, Ji Huan looked back at the eldest lady, but the lady was calmer than Ji Huan, "I'll go find it." The lady said as she went to the back hall.
"General, the general also invited you to the flower hall for tea." Ji Huan invited the general to tea.
The eldest lady hurried to the back hall, but she really saw Li Zhongxuan and Shen Qiaoan being inseparable, and seeing this, the lady hurriedly entered the house.
"Let's go, Joan, let's go." The lady said while giving her purse to Shen Qiaoan.
Shen Qiaoan just knew from Li Zhongxuan's mouth that Li Zhongxuan accidentally offended someone because of that matter, and when he saw his wife coming at this moment, he was even more sure that things were out of control.
"They've arrived, Joan, I know, you all have each other in your hearts, and go, go."
"Madam, at this moment, where can we leave, now that we are gone, but the court wants the master to sit together, how can I bear it?"
"Joan." Madame shook Shen Qiao'an's hand hard, "The master will not sit together, the court is not an indiscriminate place, you are just a girl adopted by the master, after you go, there is nothing, I can't bear to see you Lao Yan flying." β
"Mother." Shen Qiaoan bowed to the ground, "You are as kind to me as a mountain, I can't leave you, you can rest assured, this incident has something to do with me, we go out, we always have to face what we should face." β
"There's still an hour to go, and I don't know if I find the little county lord." Shen Qiaoan looked at Li Zhongxuan, Li Zhongxuan nodded, and went outside with Qiao An.
When Madame saw them like this, she suddenly remembered that she had been young, and she couldn't help but feel melancholy.
The two of them went forward.
When he arrived in the front hall, the general stopped eating and drinking, and hurriedly came over to take Li Zhongxuan away.
"There's still an hour, right?" Li Zhongxuan looked at the man's claws of Lushan, the general nodded coldly, Li Zhongxuan pointed to the general's hand, the general understood, nodded, and withdrew his hand.
"Since there is still an hour, you have no right to take me at this moment, and I am still free, right?"
"This ......" The general was a little annoyed, but he could only nod his headβ"That's it, you can say whatever you want, after all, Xiucai met a soldier, I can't tell." β
At this moment, Shen Qiaoan was very clear about the ins and outs of the matter. Joan touched her heart, "We still have time, let's go now." β
"Very good, where you go, we will go, what you do, we will do, I don't believe that you can change your life." The general followed behind Shen Qiaoan.
Shen Qiaoan ignored it, and Li Zhongxuan had already gone to Hongqiao before, and three days had passed...... All the evidence that can be there is very likely to be gone, but I hope there are still clues left for Shen Qiao'an.
Here, Li Zhongxuan has been investigated many times as the location of the incident, not to mention him, the people in the court have also come many times one after another, after Shen Qiaoan arrived, he looked at the ground seriously, and looked at the distance seriously, the night had come up, and the lights were dim.
Suddenly, Shen Qiaoan discovered something.
"What's that?" Qiao An pointed to the distance, not far away in a straight line, there was a small building, and the lights were faint on the small building.
"What is that, and is there any key to this case?" The general touched his chin and felt very strange, but Shen Qiaoan didn't even feel the slightest strangeness, "I naturally need to ask you, if the princess is found, I will give you half of the silver, if you can't find it, you can kill my head, why don't we cooperate?" β
"That's very good, General Ben has the privilege, you can see whoever you want, you can ask whoever you want, and they won't fail to give General Ben a word of truth." After the general finished speaking, he took Shen Qiaoan and went to the front.
Li Zhongxuan stared at the small attic, lost in thought, he had no idea what Shen Qiaoan was going to do.
When he arrived at the attic, Shen Qiaoan saw that the general was about to knock on the door, and hurriedly stopped, "You don't participate in the next thing, you're not afraid that Li Zhongxuan will run away, just keep an eye on him, I'll go in alone." β
"This ......," the general hesitated and noddedβ"that's good." β
"Is anyone home?" Shen Qiao'an asked, but at this moment, Qiao'an smelled a faint smell of blood, "It's not good, someone assassinated it." Shen Qiaoan sighed, they were really one step faster.
"General...... Come on in, our trail is broken and someone has been assassinated. Shen Qiaoan entered the house, this house was very dilapidated, after the general came in, Li Zhongxuan saw that this house was very simple.
But the windows of the house were bright and clean, and there were a lot of red lanterns hanging on the windows of the house, and the light was extremely bright, Li Zhongxuan looked at it and found that there were only two people in the house, and an old lady was killed, and a lot of blood flowed.
Li Zhongxuan reached out and touched the corpse, and found that there was still temperature.
"Just died." The general looked at the old man's heart, "It's Yan Ling Dao." Li Zhongxuan nodded, the general got up, looked everywhere, and patted the red lantern in the window, "It's really strange, why do they have so many lanterns?" β
Li Zhongxuan also felt strange, at this moment, he squatted on the ground and found footprints, "Five people." β
"Killing two people who are powerless to use the power of three people is more ruthless than me." After the general finished speaking, he frowned and looked at the person next to him.
"Five people, and two more, watching the wind outside, I saw the footprints of two people as soon as I came in, and I was still confused at first." Li Zhongxuan corrected.
"You are so smart, why are you so smart that you still can't find the little county lord, but now you are starting to be smart, I said that three people are three people, you don't have to raise the bar with this general."
"Okay, whatever the general says, it's what it is." Li Zhongxuan didn't bother to raise the bar with him. Shen Qiaoan found something, and went to the back room, in the back room, an old man was sick in bed, and there was a Yanling knife in his heart.
Seeing this, the general smiled, he was used to corpses, and he didn't have the slightest sympathy for corpses.
"I'll just say it's Yanling Knife."
Shen Qiaoan stared at the corpse for a long time, but found that the old man seemed to have a breath, and seeing this, the general immediately reached out to pull out the knife.
"No!" Li Zhongxuan hurriedly stepped forward and protected himself in front of the old man, the general rolled his eyes, "Don't you see that he still has a breath?" If you don't pull out the knife, you will break it in one breath. β
"The knife is pulled out, and it will break in one breath." Li Zhongxuan said to Shen Qiaoan: "Listen to what he has to say." β
Shen Qiaoan hurriedly approached the corpse, and now the slightest sound could frighten the corpse, so Qiao An tried his best to speak softly, and Li Zhongxuan passed the real power to the old man through the palm of his hand.
The old man woke up faintly, staring at the few people in front of him with his eyes that were back to the light, "Ming'er, Ming'er......" The old man cried out heartbreakingly.
"They took your child?"
