Chapter 14: A Call for Help

Qiu Luoxue and Nie Yuan were surrounded by the Zheng Mansion's family, and if they wanted to get out unharmed, they still needed to waste some effort. But at this time, you can't back down, you can only hard.

"Master Zheng, are you here to greet this official? This formation is inevitably too big. Qiu Luoxue said, pretending to be very confident, but in fact, she was scared.

"When the Prime Minister arrives, the scene of greeting is naturally bigger, but I am afraid it is inappropriate for the Lord to enter the mansion so secretly." Master Zheng said, his face changed quickly, he was still smiling at first, and his face suddenly became ruthless after speaking.

"The prime minister is here for official business, so there is no need for Master Zheng to greet him." Qiu Luoxue said, and then said naturally: "The official business of the prime minister has been completed, so I won't bother."

After saying this, Qiu Luoxue pulled Nie Yuan and prepared to leave. Naturally, the people of the Zheng Mansion would not let them go so easily, and they showed their swords one after another, surrounding them in the middle.

"My Zheng Mansion is not a place where you can come and leave when you want. Since you're here, you have to leave something behind. Master Zheng said loudly, as if he wanted to use his voice to deter Qiu Luoxue.

"What do you want?" Qiu Luoxue asked.

Master Zheng said with a grim face: "I want your life." After saying that, he motioned for his men to do it.

Nie Yuan saw their intentions, and pulled Qiu Luoxue behind him between the hands of the family and said, "Stand behind me."

The courtyard was brightly lit, the shadows of the trees were deep, and the sound of swords clashing broke the silence of the night. And the Prime Minister's Mansion far away in the capital is peaceful. Xia Zimo sat in Qiu Luoxue's room and read a book, because there was the breath of Qiu Luoxue here, and there was no glitz and restlessness of the palace, so he liked to stay here.

Allure came from outside, brought a cup of tea and put it on the table, Xia Zimo just read quietly and didn't pay attention to her. It's just that Allure suddenly knelt down in front of Xia Zimo.

Xia Zimo moved the book away, looked at Allure and asked, "Why is this?"

Allure didn't speak, took out the token in his sleeve, and handed it to Xia Zimo with both hands. As mentioned before, the Shadow Guard has a universal token called the Blackwater Order. The brand in Allure's hand is similar to the Black Water Order, only the tail is a little surprised, and the golden word "secret" engraved on the tail of Allure is the token that the emperor of Daqin will use when issuing a secret order.

Seeing this token, a strange light flashed in Xia Zimo's eyes, this secret order has never been issued by him, is the secret order in the hands of Allure issued by the emperor? What is her mission?

"Why do you have a royal warrant?" Xia Zimo asked.

"His subordinates were secretly ordered by the emperor to personally protect the safety of the prince and ensure that her identity was not known. But not long ago, His Majesty knew the identity of the son, and his subordinates were not properly guarded, and he should be punished. But Gongzi did not deliberately conceal his identity, it was ordered by the emperor not to be made public, to this extent, Gongzi did not commit the crime of defrauding the king, and His Majesty demoted Gongzi out of the capital, which is biased. ”

Allure knelt in front of Xia Zimo and said very sincerely. She told Xia Zimo this, because she didn't want Qiu Luoxue to continue to stay outside, she was the prime minister of Daqin, and she should serve in the capital. And she felt that if she was dismissed from the post of prime minister because she concealed her identity as a woman, it would be too much of a loss. After all, it wasn't her intention to hide her identity.

"You're here to intercede for her?" Xia Zimo asked.

"The subordinates just told His Majesty the truth." Allure said, "And, in a few days, it will be the day of the Qiu family's ancestor worship, and Gongzi, as the only bloodline of the Qiu family, must return to the capital to worship the ancestors." I also hope that Your Majesty can transfer Gongzi back to the capital before that. ”

"That's a really good reason." Xia Zimo said.

Allure didn't understand the deep meaning of Xia Zimo's words, and looked up at Xia Zimo's expression, only to find that he suddenly threw out a dart from his cuff and shot it out of the window.

Allure was shocked, and quickly got up and walked out of the door with Xia Zimo, and saw a pool of blood on the ground outside the window, but the person had already left.

"Someone was eavesdropping." Allure said in surprise, and hurriedly said to Xia Zimo: "Your Majesty is frightened."

"I'm fine, it's just that if such a person stays in the Prime Minister's Mansion, sooner or later it will be a scourge." Xia Zimo said, "Since you are a guard personally selected by your father, your ability must not be weak, find out this person as soon as possible." ”

This person came to Qiu Luoxue's courtyard in the middle of the night, she must have wanted to find out something, and her purpose was very likely to hurt Qiu Luoxue, which made Xia Zimo very uneasy.

In the dark sky, a red light was emitted. This is Qiu Luoxue's distress signal. Nie Yuan fought with his family alone, and he had to protect Qiu Luoxue at the same time. Not long ago, he gave Qiu Luoxue the distress fireworks, so that Qiu Luoxue could find an opportunity to release a signal.

Zhang Yunwen has arrived near Zheng's Mansion with the patrol, and after seeing the fireworks, Zhang Yunwen said puzzledly: "This is not a New Year's Day, how can you put fireworks?"

"According to the subordinates, this red firework should be a distress call or a signal to report the news, which is used to deliver messages." A patrolman said.

"A distress signal?" Zhang Yunwen looked at the Zheng Mansion, suddenly thought that Qiu Luoxue was still inside, and said, "Ah, this can't be the Prime Minister asking us for help."

Xiaoshui and Sanqian, who were waiting in the county office, also saw a distress signal.

"It's the Shadow Guard's distress signal." Sanqian said.

Weak water observed the direction of the signal, and said in a panic: "It's from the Zheng Mansion, it's suffering, maybe the son has an accident."

After coming to such a conclusion, the two of them did not stay any longer, quickly ran to the horse pen and led the two horses, and hurried towards the direction of Zhengfu.

"Open the door, open the door quickly......"

A patrol slammed on the door of the Zheng Mansion, hoping to open the door, but there was no response after calling for a long time. This made Zhang Yunwen even more firm in his judgment that Qiu Luoxue had an accident.

"Find a way to knock the door open." Zhang Yunwen said that he is a weak scholar, and this kind of rough work can only be seen by patrolling.

"But the Zheng Mansion is also a big family, what should I do if I break the door?" A patrolman asked weakly.

"Bumped into the county government, don't be afraid, bump." Zhang Yunwen commanded.

With this sentence, the patrol door was not ambiguous, and soon found a large wooden stake, and several people began to install the door with it.

Inside the Zheng Mansion, Nie Yuan protected Qiu Luoxue and retreated while fighting. Although Nie Yuan's martial arts are superb, he is somewhat constrained by the drag oil bottle of Qiu Luoxue. Qiu Luoxue hated again, why didn't she know martial arts?

Hate is hate, you can't be reincarnated, you can only find a way to solve the dilemma in front of you. Suddenly, Qiu Luoxue thought that there were several boxes of copper coins and silver taels in the warehouse behind her. Although she knew that it was counterfeit money, the family did not necessarily know about it.

Thinking like this, a plan came to her mind, and she said to Qiu Luoxue: "You take it first, and I'll be back immediately." Saying that, she broke away from Nie Yuan's protection and ran to the warehouse alone.

She found the box and was about to open it, but found that two family members had rushed in and raised their swords to hit her, Qiu Luoxue suddenly stopped and said, "Wait a minute, wait a minute, you see ...... here"

Saying that, Qiu Luoxue opened the box in front of her, and the white flowers and silver in it instantly attracted the attention of the family, they may have never seen so much money in their lives.

"You can take the money here, I won't tell your master, as long as you don't beat me." Qiu Luoxue began to discuss with her family.

In the face of so much silver, the family members couldn't help but be greedy, Qiu Luoxue saw that there was a play, and continued: "Your lord doesn't do anything all day long, just eat, drink and have fun, but he has so much money. You do these dangerous things every day and you earn very little. Life is so unfair, why not earn a little more while you have the opportunity. ”

"You can hide the silver first, and then pretend to be faint here, and you don't have to go out and fight hard. The man outside was brought by me, and he was very ruthless, and if he targeted you, your life would be in danger. So it's better to pretend to be dizzy here, not only to get the money, but also to hold your life. Qiu Luoxue continued to lobby Ding Dao.

The two family members glanced at each other, and began to load a lot of silver, and they answered Qiu Luoxue with actions.

Seeing this trick, Qiu Luoxue not only showed a smug smile, but really, money can make ghosts grind. Then then, it's up to her.

Nie Yuan continued to fight outside, dealing with the people in front of him while preventing them from entering the warehouse. His moves are fast, and he doesn't have any false moves, and he can knock down a person in a single move. He is strong in martial arts, and he can always solve Qiu Luoxue's worries.

When Nie Yuan was fighting, Qiu Luoxue suddenly came out of it, wrapped a lot of silver and copper coins in her coat, and when she got outside, she scattered them out, and said while scattering them: "Send money, come and grab it, the quantity is limited, first come, first served."

The family members were still fighting, but suddenly a lot of silver taels fell from the sky, and they slowly stopped moving. Later, a few greedy people picked up the silver from the ground first, and after some people set an example, the family members also grabbed it. Some people even rushed to grab and fight.

"You idiots, don't pick them up, hurry up and arrest those two people for me." Seeing that the scene was out of control, Master Zheng shouted angrily, but money had already bought the hearts of the family, and he couldn't command it now.

Qiu Luoxue winked at Nie Yuan proudly, and without any hindrance, she came to Nie Yuan's side and said, "How is it?" It's amazing, it's called bloodlessness. ”

Zhang Yunwen slammed the door into the Zheng Mansion, and when he found Qiu Luoxue, he saw a group of people in the Zheng Mansion picking up silver on the ground, and some people scuffling together.

"What's going on?" Zhang Yunwen was surprised.

"You're here." Qiu Luoxue saw Zhang Yunwen and said, "Quick, clean up these people, the ground is full of counterfeit money, and they spend it on others." ”

Before Zhang Yunwen came in, Master Zheng felt bad and had already fled, so Qiu Luoxue said to Nie Yuan: "Let's go, let's go arrest that Master Zheng."

"Childe, are you alright?" At this time, weak water and three thousand horses arrived.

"I'm fine, you guys are here just right, come with me to catch Master Zheng, you two ride a horse, and one for me and Nie Shi." Qiu Luoxue said, this horse is raining in time, and there is just no need to run.
