"How can I laugh at such a big event?!" Liu Xiu bent down to pick up the suit on the ground, shook the dust to the side, and said at the same time: "There is no time, Lian Dan will be there soon, what are you going to do?" ”

Ye Qingqiu was already panicked and confused, and she stammered, "I...... I'm going to inform my dad right now! ”

"I'm afraid it's too late!" The informant is the old man in the Ye Mansion, and he must be a person that Ye Khotan trusts very much, what other place in the Ye Mansion can hide people without being known by the informant?

Ye Qingqiu asked in a trembling voice, "Uncle Wen, what ...... So what do we do now? ”

"If you hide your cousin, there is a chance that you can't hide it, and the secret will find out, and if you expel your cousin from the Ye Mansion, I'm afraid that your cousin won't be able to go far, and she will be captured alive by the officers and soldiers."

"That ......"

"Give her to me, and I'll find a way to get her out of town!" As he spoke, Liu Xiu handed Ye Qingqiu the set of clothes that had been trampled on by him and said, "Go find your cousin, let her change into it, and then come with me!" ”

After a pause, he said again: "There are still ......" As he spoke, he took two steps forward, came to Ye Qingqiu's side, and whispered in his ear.

Ye Qingqiu nodded while listening, and when Liu Xiu finished speaking, she hurriedly responded: "I...... I know, I'll tell my dad quietly! ”

"Go ahead, there's no time!"

Ye Qingqiu left the little maid and asked him to accompany Liu Xiu, she took Man'er by herself, and hurriedly went to find Xia Ruoyan.

While waiting for them, Liu Xiu paced back and forth in the garden, walked for a while, and saw the little maid next to him peeking at him from time to time, he stopped and asked with a smile: "Girl, do I have flowers on my face?" ”

"Huh?"

"There are no long flowers, what do you always see me do?"

was blushing by Liu Xiu's words, and the little maid hurriedly argued: "Who...... Who's always looking at you?! As if she had done something wrong, she lowered her head.

After a while, she cautiously raised her head again and asked, "Does Gongzi Liu like my young lady?" ”

Liu Xiuxiao asked, "Why do you say this?" ”

The little maid said: "If Liu Gongzi doesn't like my young lady, how can he help him again and again?" ”

Liu Xiu smiled and didn't answer further.

The reason why he helped the Ye family was mainly because he liked the Ye family's good deeds, and it had nothing to do with Ye Qingqiu. Even if the Ye family didn't have Ye Qingqiu, he would still help.

It didn't take long for Ye Qingqiu and Man'er to take Xia Ruoyan into the garden.

Liu Xiu fixed his eyes and saw that Xia Ruoyan had already changed into the set of clothes he bought. The clothes are men's clothes, because she has been trampled on by Liu Xiu many times, it looks dirty, Xia Ruoyan's hair is also combed into a man's bun, and at a glance, she is a handsome young man.

After seeing it, Liu Xiu nodded and said, "Miss Ruoyan, you have been exposed in Ye Mansion, you must come with me now!" ”

Ye Qingqiu had already explained the reason to her just now, Xia Ruoyan didn't hesitate, nodded heavily at Liu Xiu, and said, "I obey Liu Gongzi's arrangement in everything." ”

She met with Liu Xiu yesterday, and after Liu Xiu left, Ye Qingqiu also introduced Liu Xiu to her in detail.

Although the two met for the second time this time, she already knew a lot about Liu Xiu's character.

Liu Xiu didn't say anything more, he looked at Ye Qingqiu and said, "Miss Qingqiu, I'm going to say goodbye!" ”

Ye Qingqiu stepped forward, gently grabbed Liu Xiu's sleeve, and said, "Uncle Wen, cousin, please take care of you." ”

Liu Xiu said: "Don't worry, I will protect Miss Ruoyan." ”

Ye Qingqiu lowered his head and whispered, "You...... You also have to be careful. ”

Liu Xiu's heart warmed, and he said with a smile: "I will." There was no time to stay longer, Liu Xiu Zhengse said: "Miss Qingqiu, we don't have time, we have to go now." ”

"I'll send you." Ye Qingqiu took Liu Xiu and Xia Ruoyan and walked quickly towards the gate of the backyard.

When she got to the courtyard gate, she pulled the deadbolt and opened a gap in the courtyard door, and she poked her head out first and looked out.

Just outside the courtyard gate, there were two people standing upright, Ye Qingqiu was startled at first, almost screamed, looked closely, and then recognized that these two people turned out to be Long Yuan and Gai Yan.

She retracted her head and nodded to Liu Xiu and Xia Ruoyan.

Liu Xiu didn't delay any longer, pushed open the door, and walked out quickly. When Xia Ruoyan was about to go out with her, Ye Qingqiu grabbed her, with both worry in her eyes and an indescribable emotion in it.

Seemingly knowing her cousin's thoughts, Xia Ruoyan smiled and whispered briskly: "Don't worry, I will help you keep an eye on him, and I won't let him be snatched away by other women!" ”

Hearing this, Ye Qingqiu not only blushed, but even his face and neck were red, and he said coquettishly: "Cousin--"

"Let's go back!" Xia Ruoyan hugged Ye Qingqiu, and then walked out of the backyard gate.

Although Ye Qingqiu was both reluctant and worried, she really didn't have time to say goodbye, she waved her hand to Liu Xiu and Xia Ruoyan, and watched Liu Xiu and his party leave quickly with mixed feelings.

She took a deep breath, closed the door, and went to the front yard to find her father, Khotan.

Liu Xiu, Long Yuan, Gai Yan, and Xia Ruoyan followed the small alley outside the back door until they walked to the intersection and turned into another small alley. As he was walking forward, he suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves in front of him.

Oops! Lian Dan's men have arrived! Long Yuan, Gai Yan, and Xia Ruoyan all changed suddenly, Long Yuan and Gai Yan subconsciously raised their hands, the former holding the saber under his ribs, and the latter holding the saber under his ribs.

Liu Xiu reacted very quickly, and immediately grabbed the arms of the two of them, stopping the two of them from preparing to draw their weapons. His mind turned, and he whispered, "Run!" As he spoke, he turned and ran back.

Long Yuan, Gai Yan, and Xia Ruoyan glanced at each other, and coincidentally followed Liu Xiu to run back.

The three of them knew in their hearts that how could their two legs outrun the four hooves of a horse?

However, they instinctively had an incomparable sense of trust in Liu Xiu, he said to run, they ran with him, if he said to fight, they would not hesitate to fight with him!

Sure enough, Liu Xiu and the four of them didn't run out of this alley, and they were caught up by the cavalry behind.

"Stop! Everyone in front of me will stop! With the sound of messy horses' hooves, more than a dozen cavalrymen caught up with Liu Xiu and the four of them, blocking their way.

Immediately afterwards, the cavalry behind also arrived, and as far as the eye could see, they had at least a hundred horsemen.

Liu Xiu pretended to be tired, bent over, panting, and kept wiping the sweat beads on his head with his cuffs.

A cavalry commander urged the horse out of the ranks, he sat on the horse, looked at Liu Xiu and the four of them, and asked with a sinking face: "What are you running?" ”

Liu Xiu gasped twice, and Fang said, "Of course I'm going to arrest someone!" ”

"Arrest? Who to catch? ”

"The assassin who assassinated General Lian!" Liu Xiu showed his military card and said: "We are all righteous soldiers, under Liu Xiu, belonging to the Xiangyang Righteous Army, the patriarch Xiesang, who had captured the barbarian army in Qianyou Mountain, and made great contributions to defending the county town......"

He was talking endlessly about his great achievements, and the cavalry commander had impatiently snatched the military card in his hand, and looked down to see that it was really Liu Xiu of the Xiangyang Righteous Army.

The expression on the face of the cavalry commander did not soften, and he asked in a deep voice, "Where are you going to arrest people?" ”

"Ye Fu!"

"Ye Fu? How do you know that the Assassins are hiding in Yefu? ”

"This ......"

"Say!"

"When Lord Tocao Zhou reported to General Lian, we also happened to be in the Taishou Mansion, and after hearing about it, we ......"

"Ahh Without waiting for Liu Xiu to finish speaking, the cavalry commander showed a look of sudden realization, the corners of his mouth were hooked, and he said with a smile: "You guys are here to grab merit!" ”

As he spoke, he tilted his head and looked Liu Xiu up and down, he was young, in his early twenties, and he was all over his body, and there was nothing surprising about him, but he looked handsome.

He smiled, laughed angrily, and said in a weird manner: "Liu Xiu, your ability and mind to grab merit are really admirable, I think you are a waste of talent to be a rebel, if you take refuge under the general one day, you will have to become my top boss in the future, right?!" ”

Liu Xiu blinked, bowed down in fear, and said, "The military master is serious, the villain doesn't dare!" ”

"Humph!" The cavalry commander snorted heavily, shook his head and shouted, "You don't pee and take a picture of what your rebels are?!" Get lost! When is it your turn to meddle in something that shouldn't be in your hands? How far is it for Lao Tzu to roll out! ”

Gaiyan was furious, raised his head, and glared at the cavalry commander. Seeing this, the cavalry commander pointed at Gaiyan with a horse whip and asked, "What?" Are you still not convinced? ”

Without waiting for Gai Yan to speak, Liu Xiu hurriedly grabbed his arm and smiled at the cavalry commander: "Master Jun's anger, let's go!" Let's go! ”

As he spoke, he took Gaiyan's arm, pressed it against the wall, and walked briskly past the side of the cavalry.

Seeing this, the cavalry commander took the lead and laughed on his back, and the other cavalrymen also laughed.

"The little rebel army, who doesn't know the height of the sky, dares to be cheeky enough to grab such a great achievement? It's ridiculous! The cavalry commander sneered, waved his hand to the left and right, and continued to rush towards the Ye Mansion.

When Liu Xiu and his party walked out of this small alley, seeing that there were no cavalry chasing after them, the four of them breathed a sigh of relief.

This time, Gai Yan and Xia Ruoyan both saw Liu Xiu's astuteness, and it was obvious that he had been exposed, but he was able to come up with the best plan in an instant, and he saved the day in a few words.

This kind of calmness and decisiveness in dealing with things is really rare in the world.

Xia Ruoyan said gratefully to Liu Xiu: "Thank you Liu Gongzi for saving me." ”

Liu Xiu said: "Miss Ruoyan just call me Uncle Wen. After a pause, he asked, "Is there a place for Miss Ruoyan to go?" ”

Xia Ruoyan shook her head and asked, "Is there a chance to get out of the city now?" ”

Gaiyan answered: "The four cities are all closed, and they can neither enter nor exit. ”

Xia Ruoyan asked again: "What if it's a guest house?" ”

Gai Yan shook his head and said, "At present, the inns in the whole city have been emptied, and if Miss Xia goes to the guest house, it is tantamount to throwing herself into a net." ”

Xia Ruoyan was silent. With no way out of the city and no place to live, even if she wanted to sleep on the streets, she would inevitably be arrested by patrolling officers and soldiers.

Seeing that she was at a loss, Liu Xiu said: "There is a place that can be used as a shelter for Miss Ruoyan." ”

Xia Ruoyan's eyes lit up and said, "Uncle Wen can call me Ruoyan." What is the shelter that Uncle Wen said? ”

Liu Xiu smiled and said, "The camp of the righteous army." ”
