Chapter 29: Framed (I)
Wu Yi came out of the study and went straight to the prefect's yamen, and Chen Mingyang had returned to the city, and Wan Ting got the news and went to Chen's house.
Li Bo was sitting by the window in the post station to write a fold, a note wrapped in a small note was smashing on the table, Li Bo was startled, and quickly got up and looked out, but the wind and waves outside were calm, and there was no trace.
Li Bo opened the small note, on which were written the words Yu Nian Zhang Hai. Li Bo's heart tightened, he knew what this meant, but it was really unsettling that this piece of paper didn't know where it came from, and suddenly he remembered that Zhou Qi had said that the Qian family might find something, but would they use this method to inform themselves? After all, Wan Ting has been in the Qian family, if she really finds out something, she should convey it euphemistically through Wan Ting! Besides, there are only two names written on this note, could it be a trap, and if so, who will it trap?
Li Bo thought about it for a long time in the room, and felt that it would be better to pause the performance and discuss it with Zhou Qi first.
Wan Ting ran all the way back to the prefect's yamen, took out the stick that had been prepared for a long time and walked towards the Chen family, on the way she saw a group of people chatting around the corner, Wan Ting walked by and they were almost stunned by the fragrance, but she couldn't care so much, Chen Mingyang had already entered the city!
At the door of Chen's house, Chen Mingyang had just gotten off the horse, and Chen Qianlang walked out of it, "Why did you come back?" ”
"Dad, I know everything, how is grandpa?"
"Know what? Your grandfather is very good! ”
Chen Mingyang saw his father's expression and knew that he hadn't lied to himself, his heart sank, and he was just about to speak, when he heard the wind of "whirring" behind him, Chen Mingyang pushed Chen Qianlang, and the two dodged Wan Ting's big stuffy stick together.
"You're crazy!" As soon as Chen Mingyang turned around, he saw that Wan Ting was empty, and then trotted forward two steps.
Wan Ting turned around and continued to hit Chen Mingyang, Chen Qianlang wanted to pull his son to hide in the inner courtyard quickly, but Chen Mingyang had been learning martial arts since he was a child, dodging left and right, and saw the opportunity, and snatched the stick away, "Have you made enough trouble!" ”
"Give it back to me!" Wan Ting came up to grab the stick, Chen Qianlang came up to persuade peace, and the three of them crowded together and messed up.
Here Wu Yi hurriedly walked to the backyard of the prefect's yamen, and Qian Ning said that he would inadvertently reveal to the prefect of Zhou, although Wu Yi hadn't thought about what to do, it was not strange to go and see everyone now. Wu Yi walked into the yamen and saw that the door was closed, and through the crack in the door, there seemed to be no one in the courtyard, so he stood at the door and shouted twice, but no one answered the door. Wu Yi thought that maybe something went out, but Qian Ning didn't say that he had to tell Lord Zhou today, so it was better to come back tomorrow! Thinking of Wu Yi, he turned around and left.
Li Bo saw Wu Yi lying on the door and looking in from a distance, so he hid in the corner to observe. Seeing that Wu Yi just screamed twice and left, thinking that she should be fine, Li Bo still waited in the corner for a while, and there was no suspicious person in the corner, Li Bo finally came to the door cautiously with confidence, and came in as soon as he pushed the door and saw that it was not plugged in.
The courtyard was empty, Li Bo was feeling strange, and suddenly heard a woman's laughter in the direction of the study, Li Bo lightly came to the base of the study wall, and looked in through the window. I saw Zhou Qi lying on the table, surrounded by a group of flowery women, only to hear a woman laughing and saying, "Oh, why did you fall asleep, do you say this is an adult?" ”
"yes, otherwise why would he be sitting here alone, wouldn't those people be in the next room!"
"Hahaha, sisters, come on, mom can say, as long as you serve the good adults, give us fifty taels of silver each!"
A woman shook her handkerchief and said, "It's all sleeping, how can you serve!" ”
"Hey, don't you just get it to bed, you can come together tomorrow and you won't admit it!"
Everyone laughed, "Hahaha, yes, yes, come, sisters, let's take off his clothes first, and see how he pays his bills." ”
"Hahaha, good, good."
Li Bo saw Zhou Qi motionless outside the window, and counted the women in total, a total of five, thinking that it would be more than enough for him to go in and deal with them. Li Bo tiptoed to see the women begin to take off Zhou Qi's clothes, Li Bo came to him and knocked the women unconscious one by one, and they didn't even see what was going on and fell to the ground.
"Lord Zhou! Lord Zhou! Li Bo pushed Zhou Qi hard, and saw that he didn't move at all, "Five princes, five princes wake up!" Li Bo tried Zhou Qi's pulse, fortunately he was still alive, and wanted to find water to wake Zhou Qi up, but there was no water in the teacup. Li Bo was just about to put down the teacup, picked it up again and put it to his nose and smelled it, but it was the smell of Longjing.
At this moment, a person suddenly ran in at the door, and plugged in the door, "Lord Zhou, Lord Zhou!" Li Bo looked out, and saw that the woman who called the door just now came back again, hiding by the door on one side, Wu Yi came straight to the study, shouted twice at the door and leaned in to look in, Li Bo came over with an arrow, grabbed Wu Yi's neck with one hand, and grabbed Wu Yi's arm with the other hand and stood behind her.
"What people!"
"Ahh Wu Yi was taken aback, facing Zhou Qi's direction, and saw several people lying on the ground who didn't know whether they were dead or alive, and Zhou Qi was also motionless on the table, "Chain, He Ping, help!" Wu Yi shouted.
Li Bo thought that the people who knew Chain and He Ping should be their own people, "Don't shout, your own people!" Quick, help me wake up Lord Chow! Li Bo let go of Wu Yi's neck and pulled her to Zhou Qi's side.
"You are?"
"You don't care who I am, what are you doing here?"
"Oh, by the way, I just heard an old bustard instruct her men to come to the prefect's yamen to make trouble."
"Old bustard?"
"It's ...... in a brothel"
"I know, you, hurry up and find a way to wake up Lord Zhou, and I'll hide them first."
Wu Yi saw the girl in the same place, "Hey, this adult, Lord Zhou called the girl, why did he fall asleep first?" ”
"What do you call a girl!" Li Bo couldn't believe his ears, "You, I don't care who you are, now that time is pressing, you hurry up and wake up Lord Zhou!" Li Bo didn't want to talk to Wu Yi more, so he had already started to support the people on the ground and put them in the cabinet at the back, and he didn't forget to plug their mouths.
Wu Yi patted Zhou Qi's face, and seeing that he didn't react, he twisted his ears hard, but there was still no response. Wu Yi felt strange and wanted to sleep so dead! Okay, then let you know how good I am Wu Yi! Wu Yi picked up Zhou Qi's hand, pulled off the hairpin on his head and stabbed it hard at Zhou Qi's tiger's mouth, Zhou Qi's body moved, and gradually opened his eyes.
"Hey, you're awake, my lord!"
Li Bo saw that Zhou Qi woke up and hurried over, "My lord! ”
"Why are you here?" Zhou Qi felt that his whole body was weak, so he sat up with great support.
"My lord, it's none of my business, it's him who wants to leave, he has to ruin your interest, you see, your girl was also knocked out by him!"
Li Bo was also convinced, "You! ”
"Li Bo" Zhou Qi pulled Li Bo, and a call sounded outside the door, "Lord Zhou, Lord Zhou!" How's our girl? Isn't it time for them to go back! The old bustard's shrill voice penetrated in, followed by the laughter of a group of old men, "Yes, it's time for our girls to go back!" Hahaha! ”
Li Bo hurriedly walked to the window to check, and glanced at Zhou Qi again, "What should I do?" ”
Zhou Qi glanced at Li Bo and then at Wu Yi in his seat, "Wu Yi, did you stab me just now?" ”
"Huh? My lord, my lord, this and this, he made me ......"
"Bring the hairpin!"
Wu Yi saw that Zhou Qi's eyes were firm, so he hesitantly handed the hairpin into Zhou Qi's hands, Zhou Qi took the hairpin and found the acupuncture point and stabbed it hard, and the pain in his heart made Zhou Qi sober up instantly.
"Listen, Wu Yi, you take this hairpin, they are all in the kitchen, you go and wake them up. Li Bo, for a moment you hide behind the flower bed, there is enough to hide, and when people come in, you go among them, and then reappear when necessary. ”
"What about you?"
"I'll go open the door, you act when you see the opportunity, don't reveal your whereabouts."
"Yes!" Li Bo has already agreed, Wu Yi still doesn't know what's wrong, originally she heard the old bustard say that she was going to come to find trouble, so she hurried back to tell everyone, I didn't expect it to be so messy inside, you have to know that she won't come back! Just thinking about it, Zhou Qi had already gotten up and walked to the door.
The small door opened slowly, and Zhou Qi saw that the old bustard was in front with her little servant, and the people of Huizhou City were behind, and everyone stopped pointing when they saw him come out.
Zhou Qi took two steps forward, glanced at everyone, and stood steadily. "If you have a grievance, go to the front hall to declare!"
"Yo, my lord, why don't you know anyone so soon!" The old bustard threw the handkerchief forward, and the fragrance almost smoked Zhou Qi, "Let's all say okay, the girls will go back as soon as the sun goes down, why do adults have to pay their debts?" My lord, if the girls spend the night, it won't be so expensive, you see......" The old bustard rubbed his fingers back and forth.
"I don't understand what you're talking about, but I want to remind you that although this is a backyard and a prefect's yamen, your nonsense here is the same as perjury in court!"
"Oh, my lord, why do you have to pay it now! Oh, big guy, take a look, we have a small business, why is the big man going to arrest us all! While inciting the people, the old bustard instructed the little servant, "Quick, hurry up and tell our girl to go back!" Otherwise, this business wouldn't be able to be done! ”
Zhou Qi saw that everyone was pointing, and the old bustard was about to cross him into the yard, so he simply flashed aside, "This official is not afraid of shadows, if you have to say that your girl is here, you can shout a few words, and they will ......naturally come out when they hear it."
How could the old bustard miss this opportunity, before Zhou Qi finished speaking, an arrow had already rushed to the courtyard, and the little man began to scream, and the people saw that the prefect had made way, and they also began to join in the fun. Zhou Qi hurriedly walked in front and walked to the hall by himself, Li Bo was behind the flower bed for fear of being discovered, but fortunately, everyone followed Zhou Qi as if they were looking at him.
Zhou Qi stood still under the corridor, and everyone naturally waited to see what he said. "Ladies and gentlemen, this official is not afraid of shadows, so he called you in. This one, the bustard mother, doesn't say that her girl is here, then we might as well shout and see if I, the prefect of the yamen, can come out of a girl! Zhou Qi saw that Li Bo was already standing behind everyone, and his heart settled down, "However, this official can say ugly things in front, if not, the bustard's mother will take the lead in making trouble in the prefect's yamen, and his crime should be punished!" Everyone should be a witness to this officer! Later, Zhou Qi had already said something harsh.
In the kitchen, Wu Yi had already woken everyone up.
