Chapter 516: The identity of the man in black
She frowned slightly, and a look of horror flashed in her eyes.
I couldn't figure it out in my heart, why did someone learn the news just now when they returned to the capital, and they dared to run into the Yin Hou Mansion to assassinate and assassinate?
"Miss."
Qinghong came quietly, and sat in Yin Qingqi's boudoir with a worried face, only to see Yin Qingqi wearing a short shirt, staring at the night outside the window lattice with a sad face.
"Miss, did you say that the emperor received the news of your return?"
Yin Qingqi was stunned at first, and then the worry on his face became more solemn, and his whole body was tense with vigilance.
It's not that she's worried that the emperor will take action against her, but now, Xue Tan is in prison and suffering, if something happens to him again, I'm afraid no one will be able to save him.
"Qinghong, why do you say that?" Yin Qingqi stared at Qinghong tightly, there were bursts of footsteps outside the window, the sound was chaotic, but panicked and orderly, like a group of well-trained guards, Yin Qingqi knew that there might be people from Yin Hou's Mansion outside, searching for the traces of the man in black.
"Miss, do you remember what Chang Lei said when he came to the Jinghong Pavilion?" Qinghong simply sat beside Yin Qingqi, holding Yin Qingqi's hand tightly with one hand, and the appearance of not leaving an inch also made Yin Qingqi feel a little at ease.
"Isn't it just for us to go back to the Yin Hou Mansion to live." Yin Qingqi sighed slightly, she didn't expect that General Chang's attitude towards her would be so cold, which also disappointed Yin Qingqi, who originally thought that there was hope to save Xue Tan.
But now, Chang Lei's attitude has explained everything.
"Miss, do you think it could be that General Chang Lei made a ghost and let people attack Yinhou's Mansion at night?" Qinghong frowned, a worried look spread over her entire face, and glanced out the window, as if she was afraid that something would quickly burst out.
"Probably not, right?" Yin Qingqi was taken aback by this thought, she never thought that Chang Lei would harm her.
"But miss, do you remember what General Chang Lei did to you when he was in Yanzhou? Did he say that you should make your own choice between life and death, and that was the words of one of his lieutenants? Miss, the prince was still alive at that time...... Qinghong chattered endlessly, and Yin Qingqi was also unusually irritable when she heard it.
Miss, if you want me to say, let's figure it out by ourselves, there is Mo Changqing Mo in the palace, although the relationship with Xue Tan is still owed, but it is not like a person who will not be saved when he sees death, in my opinion, Miss, let's ask someone to go to the palace to ask Lord Mo for help. Qinghong looked at Yin Qingqi firmly and said what she thought, the appearance of this seventh elder brother made Qinghong feel uneasy in her heart.
Since ancient times, there has been a struggle for the throne, and few people can stay out of the world, and now that the prince and the sixth elder brother are dead, it is natural for the seventh elder brother to come out to preside over the overall situation, but it is such a natural thing, but it is like playing a bitter trick, and Qinghong is uncomfortable when he sees it.
"You mean, do you suspect that Seventh Elder Brother and General Chang Lei are plotting to rebel, which will affect me and the Xue family?" Yin Qingqi stood up suddenly, she clearly heard a movement outside, so she vigilantly walked to the window and sealed the window tightly, so as not to have ears on the wall.
"Miss, if you think about it carefully, what does the conspiracy of rebellion have to do with you? You just want to save the common people and save the people of the world, the rebellion in Yanzhou, the rebellion in Shuzhou, to put it bluntly, has nothing to do with you, but you are stuck at this hour, in order to shift the responsibility to you and General Xue. ”
Qinghong's analysis was reasonable and well-founded, so that Yin Qingqi had to be convinced.
"Miss, you came back to the capital for two things, one is to let the emperor send troops to Erjiang, and the other is to save General Xue Tan from coming out, and now you are caught in such grievances, isn't it ......" Qinghong looked at Yin Qingqi anxiously, and a trace of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
"Since the day Yanzhou took over, the war was in chaos, and the people were struggling to make a living." Yin Qingqi closed his eyes tightly, and the images of countless deaths and injuries appeared in front of him.
"I'm sorry for Qi Yuan's hope for me, and I'm sorry for Xue Tan." Yin Qingqi's whole person was trembling slightly, as if those daunting pictures had reappeared in front of her over and over again.
Whether it was Qi Yuan's blood-drenched body or those soldiers resting on the battlefield, every scar made Yin Qingqi feel anxious, and every cruel ravine on his flesh and blood made Yin Qingqi recall the picture of Qi Yuan's death again.
Yin Qingqi clenched her fists tightly, the panicked look in her eyes made Qinghong a little worried, Qinghong stepped forward and slowly hugged Yin Qingqi, gently smoothing her back and protruding
's spine is like a fragile flower stem, staggering to support Yin Qingqi's body.
"Miss, it's okay, it's okay." Qinghong's gentle voice made Yin Qingqi feel a little relieved, and those worries seemed to be just passing away.
"Qinghong, if I really die in the capital, remember to bury me in the Jinghong Pavilion." Yin Qingqi muttered in a low voice, her voice was weak and subtle, and Qinghong listened to it like a needle piercing her bones, constantly stinging her heart.
"Miss, what are you talking about?" Qinghong snorted lightly and looked at Yin Qingqi dissatisfied.
"Even if General Chang and others intend to rebel, the emperor will not rely on you, besides, you still have tens of thousands of troops in Yanzhou, I don't believe that the emperor will blame you indiscriminately." Qinghong rolled her eyes, and suddenly remembered a countermeasure.
"Miss, if we don't spread the news and let the people in the capital know that there is such a thing, maybe no one will suspect that you did it."
"Qinghong, in my opinion, it's better not to make a noise for now, since the seventh elder brother has asked me to go to his mansion these days, then I have no choice but to obey his wishes."
Nowadays, who is in charge of the world is not very important to Yin Qingqi, there is no troubled times and no heroes, Yin Qingqi is thinking about living a peaceful and stable life at the moment, and when the Nanzhao Rebellion is resolved, he will return to his hometown and go to Yangzhou to find the traces of Siniang.
But the most important thing at the moment is Xue Tan's life and death, not his own safety.
"Miss, what do you want?" Qinghong tentatively came over, and there was always a messy sound outside the window, which made Yin Qingqi unable to concentrate for a while, unable to think about the next move.
Yin Qingqi didn't care too much about the black-clothed man who suddenly appeared in the mansion, not to mention, the guards in the mansion were only late at the moment, I'm afraid that person would have run away a long time ago, if he was still hiding here, avoiding the eyes of more than a dozen guards on the Yin Hou Mansion and sneaking into the Hou Mansion, he must also be extraordinary, even if he catches up, I'm afraid it will be difficult to stop him.
When Yin Qingqi heard the movement, he didn't hear the slightest violent wheezing, it seems that the man in black didn't feel tired of this, this kind of skill, even in front of Xue Tan Changlei and others, if Yin Qingqi made a rash move, I am afraid that he would hurt himself.
