What to do? What to do? After returning to the West Courtyard, Qing'er was in turmoil.

After all, he is a few years older than Xiaoyu and others, and he has experienced more things and has more experience. Since the guards guarding the door didn't let her go out, Qing'er concluded that Yang Hao had an accident. She didn't want to quarrel with the guards, they were doing what they were told, and it was useless to shout at them; She didn't want to tell Xiaoyu about them in a panic, it would be useless to worry about it. The person Qing'er wants to see most now is Dongyu, and maybe only she can know what happened.

Winter Rain came back, and was "escorted" back by two guards.

Half an hour ago, because it was not his turn to play cards at the table, the bored Dongyu decided to go to the pantry to make a pot of tea for Yang Hao. It happened to be Shenshi, and several bookstores in the bookstore room packed up and prepared to go home, and they often came and went, and they all knew each other, and when they met in the corridor, they said a few words casually. I didn't want to delay, Lao Hu in the pantry took the opportunity to sneak home, Lao Hu's house was near the embassy, there was an old mother paralyzed in bed at home, his wife and children were not filial, only he took the time to run back to take a look.

Dong Yu had to boil the water by himself, the water stove was in the small courtyard behind the tea room, Dong Yuzi carefully cleaned the big copper kettle, and poured fresh well water, these were ordered by Xiaoyu, and they were not sloppy at all. After finishing all this, Dongyu leaned on the back door frame, guarding the stove while trimming his nails.

At this time, a big man in brocade clothes suddenly walked into the pantry, looked left and right, and asked Dongyu: "That girl, where is the old Hu who boils water?" ”

I'm used to hearing sweet words, and I'm used to seeing the winter rain that nods and bows, how can I stand this grievance? "Who are you? Dare to enter the second hall with a knife, don't you know the rules? ”

"Oh, the crow and the magpie have become essences, and the kittens and dogs have become immortals." The brocade-clothed man sneered, reached out and grabbed Dongyu's wrist, which was as tight as an iron clip.

Dongyu struggled desperately, "Help, help......" The brocade-clothed man was furious when he heard her cry, and pulled her into his arms, strangled Dongyu's neck with his right arm, and covered her mouth with his left hand. Dongyu panicked, like a frightened rabbit, and no matter how she struggled with her petite stature, it was in vain.

"Let her go." There was a muffled sip at the door of the pantry. Yu Yanlu, the captain of the Agni Battalion, blocked the door with two ironclad guards.

"Get out of here!" The brocade-clothed man let out a low roar and rushed out. Yu Yanlu sneered and pressed his hand on the hilt. "Get out of the way!" Jinyi's tone was still stern, he unhurriedly showed a silver token, and said arrogantly: "Jin Wuwei is ordered to run errands, and all idle people and others will dodge. ”

"Please put down the Winter Rain Girl." Yu Yanlu did not back down.

"My lord, they are sent to him." One of Yu Yanlu's side reminded cautiously.

"Are they ordered to arrest a maid?" Yu Yanlu sneered, "I'll say it again, please put the Winter Rain girl down." ”

The corner of the brocade-clothed man's mouth showed a sneer of disdain, and he didn't mean to let him go.

"Old Seven, let the people go."

A deep voice came from the hallway, low but majestic. When the brocade-clothed man heard this, he immediately let go of his hand, "cough, cough......" Dongyu covered his neck and coughed violently, and hurriedly stood behind Yu Yanlu.

"We are on an errand, and we don't want to involve innocents. This girl saw something she shouldn't have seen, and asked Captain Yu to take her down, how to do it, I believe Captain Yu knows better than me. "The one who spoke was also a man in brocade clothes, and the one who followed the pantry was exactly the same, but he was a little older.

"Don't worry, she won't be bad." Yu Yanlu replied, then grabbed Dongyu's hand and walked out.

Dongyu also realized the seriousness of the matter, and the arrogance on his body disappeared without a trace. She lowered her head and followed behind Yu Yanlu step by step, until she passed through the corner gate and arrived at the courtyard in front of Huwei Hall, and then asked Yu Yanlu quietly: "Who are they?" ”

"Whatever your business, you don't ask anything." Yu Yanlu replied with a straight face.

Dongyu glared at him secretly, and quietly looked back: the two brocade-clothed men were already guarding the door of the west corner of the inner study, and at this time, in addition to the four guards in the waiter's room, the secretary who was buried in drafting letters in the bookstore was shallow and clear.

Dongyu was thinking, the doors and windows of the bookstore were small, and the shallow water and Qing buried himself in drafting the letters, maybe they didn't hear the sound outside, but the doors and windows of the attendant's room opposite were so big, didn't they hear them either? These brocade-clothed men claim to be on an errand, could it be that this case involves adults, so that they pretend to be deaf and dumb and dare not intervene?

These unconscionable things, adults are so good to you on weekdays, and when something happens, they all become shrinking turtles! Thinking of this, Dongyu glanced at Yu Yanlu, and secretly rejoiced in his heart: Anyway, he still has me in his heart.

There were twice as many guards outside the Yimen as usual, and Cheng Keling was giving a lecture with an armored shoulder knife. Seeing Yu Yanlu coming out of the second hall with Dongyu, he hesitated for a moment but didn't ask.

Dongyu was locked alone in a guard duty room, and it was not accurate to say that it was closed, at least the door was open, and she could also walk outside the door to breathe, but she couldn't leave at will. After about half a burnt incense, the two guards carried the female scrivener out of the Yimen in shallow water, Cheng Keling saw this and hurriedly greeted her, and without asking a few words, he let the guards carry her into the duty room.

Dongyu wanted to go over to take a look, but was stopped by two guards guarding her. Dongyu shouted, "She's hurt! Do you want to peel off her clothes too? At this shout, everyone lost their minds. Cheng Keling and Yu Yanlu, who were standing on the side, did not speak. Dongyu took the opportunity to push away the guards and walked into the duty room.

There were several bruises on Shallow Shuiqing's face, baring her teeth and screaming in pain, as soon as Dongyu came in, she immediately gave her a look. "All out, all out!" The winter rain drove all the guards out of the room. While untying the clothes of the shallow water and checking the injury.

"I'm fine," Asamu Qingyi grabbed Dongyu's hand and said eagerly, "Someone wants to harm the adult, try to find Captain Guan, and now only he can save the adult." ”

Dongyu nodded, turned around and opened the door and said, "Miss Shuiqing has injured her muscles and bones, I'll go and invite Langzhong." "I'm about to go out.

Suddenly, a group of brocade-clad guards broke in through the gate. The leader is a lean man in his thirties with a scar on his face. Cheng Keling hurriedly stepped forward, whispered a few words to him, and Scarface nodded and led people into the instrument gate.

Sure enough, something happened! Dongyu felt a cramp in his heart.

With the last glimmer of hope, she shouted at Yu Yanlu: "Tell them to get out of the way, I'm going out to invite Langzhong!" ”

"I'll send someone." Yu Yanlu was expressionless and replied coldly. Dongyu was desperate in an instant, she glared at Yu Yanlu resentfully, and was about to turn around and leave.

"Stop, Madame is calling you." Cheng Keling suddenly walked over, "You go back now, remember, if you want to live, it's best not to say anything." Dongyu glared at Cheng Keling in disgust. I have never liked Cheng Keling's square face, and I especially dislike it at this time.

"Where have you been?" The two guards "escorted" Dongyu back to the west courtyard of the back hall, and Qing'er was waiting at the door.

"Sister Qing'er......" Dongyu suddenly felt aggrieved, and her eyes suddenly turned red.

"Shh," Qing'er hurriedly gestured to her, "to your room." ”

――――――

"Get out of the way! We want to see the Chincha. Zeng Chongyang, you come out! ”

Zeng Chongyang, who was secretly talking with Zhang Huchen in the signing room of the Fengzhou Defense Embassy, suddenly heard someone outside calling his name, and he was unconsciously angry.

"Who is so bold? What do you eat? Zeng Chongyang was extremely angry and roared at the guards at the door. Zhang Huchen's face in the seat was a little unbearable, and this roar seemed to be directed at him.

Since he was brought here overnight by the Qincha guards last night, Zeng Chongyang has been forcing himself to promise one thing, coercion and temptation are all used. Before this, he had never dealt with Zeng Chongyang, but he had heard of this person's name. This is definitely not a good person to work with. When we met last night, Zeng Chongyang's first sentence was: "Women are all things outside the body, and I will definitely make up for you one day better." Zhang Huchen was ashamed and couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.

"Let them in." As he spoke, Zeng Chongyang had already stood under the porch.

The guards opened the door of the west corner, and Qing'er, Xiaoyu, Lu Rui, the Li sisters, and Dongyu rushed over violently. Zhang Huchen wanted to get up and hide, but was stopped by Qing'er: "It turns out that Lord Thorn Shi is also here." ”

"Oh, it turned out to be Madame." Zhang Huchen greeted him outside the door, his expression a little embarrassed. In all fairness, Yang Hao is quite respectful to himself. When he came to Feng'an, Yang Hao always held a banquet at home to entertain him. Although his downfall had nothing to do with him, when Zeng Chongyang ordered Qing'er and others to be placed under house arrest, he was obviously present but did not say a word, and he felt a little guilty in his heart.

"May I ask Lord Qincha, where is my husband now?" Qing'er asked coldly.

"Ah, General Yang has been promoted to the deputy envoy of Qianzhou Observation." Zeng Chongyang didn't like Qing'er's aggressive attitude.

"The husband is transferred, why doesn't the wife know about it?" Qing'er asked.

"The holy will is very urgent, so General Yang didn't have time to inform a few people before leaving." Zeng Chongyang said perfunctorily in an official tone.

"Hmph, I don't understand this, Qianzhou is thousands of miles away from Feng'an, and the fast horse will have to walk for a few months, right? He was so busy that he didn't even bother to say a word? ”

"You-" Zeng Chongyang's face turned red, he flicked his sleeves, and snorted coldly: "Why did he leave in such a hurry, how do I know?" Go and ask him for yourselves. ”

"If you say that, you're being rude." Qing'er suddenly softened, "Sisters, let's go south to chase after your husband." ”

Zeng Chongyang was stunned when he heard this, and then he saw that everyone was carrying a small burden in their hands.

"No one is allowed to leave!" Zeng Chongyang had no intention of entanglement with them anymore, he broke off his drink, and more than a dozen brocade-clothed guards suddenly rushed in outside the corner gate, surrounding Qing'er and the others.

Qing'er sneered: "Dare to ask my lord, what crime have we committed?" Why don't you let us go? ”

"This—"

"Oops, don't get me wrong." Zhang Huchen saw that things were going to be stiff and hurriedly came forward to play a round, "Madame misunderstood what Lord Zeng meant." General Yang was in a hurry to go because he had urgent business, and when he left, he entrusted Lord Qincha to take care of you on his behalf. And said that in a few days, he would send someone to pick up his wife and go south. We have received a secret report that Mosa's killers have infiltrated Feng'an City and are waiting for an opportunity to take revenge. Tsang-sama is doing this for the sake of your safety. ”

"Dare to ask Lord Qincha, what do you mean by what Lord Zhang said?" Lu Rui asked with a sneer.

"Hmm-" Zeng Chongyang snorted a word in his nostrils, which was an answer.

"Then we can't dismiss the kindness of the adults, sisters, let's not disturb Lord Qincha's business." Qing'er retreated with a group of people.

"It's all withdrawn, it's all withdrawn." Zhang Huchen waved his hand to disperse the brocade-clothed guards.

"By the way, Dongyu, you go to the windbreaker shop on East Street to get back the clothes that the adults ordered. Don't forget to leave in a hurry. ”

"Alas," Dongyu replied and walked out. The attendant looked at Zeng Chongyang and didn't know whether to let it go or stop it.

"Send two people to follow Miss Winter Rain." After Zhang Huchen finished speaking, he hurriedly added, "It's dark, it's not reassuring for a girl to be outside, so let's find someone to accompany you." ”

"Winter rain, don't go when it's dark. Tomorrow morning, at dawn, you will go again. Xiaoyu deliberately added an accent under the word "dawn", the intention was naturally to remind Zhang Huchen and Zeng Chongyang: Tomorrow the winter rain will go out, don't send someone to follow.

――――――――――

"Only villains and women are difficult to raise." Being troubled by Qing'er, Zeng Chongyang seemed quite helpless, he looked down on women very much in his heart, and naturally disdained to fight with the little girl.

"Alas," Zhang Huchen sighed slightly and shook his head gently.

"Brother Mo Cheng, don't hesitate any longer. The Holy One has made up his mind, and it is not something you and I can resist. ”

"The lower officials obey the order." Zhang Huchen finally lowered his head.

"That's right." Zeng Chongyang lowered his voice and said, "I might as well give you a thorough understanding of why the above wants to purge him?" ”

Zhang Huchen muttered: "Don't you say that he is arbitrary and doesn't listen to orders? ”

Zeng Chongyang sneered, "You are really an honest person." Be a law onto oneself? Which of the border town generals is not arbitrary? Only the mediocre and the treacherous will report everything to the court. That's just an excuse. ”

"Oh," Zhang Huchen pretended to be surprised, and sighed with a sigh, "Please give me advice." ”

"He's involved in a party dispute." Zeng Chongyang gently spit out these seven words, and Zhang Huchen was stunned: "My lord, Yang Hao is definitely not a person who fights for the party!" ”

"You listen to me when I'm done." Zeng Chongyang motioned for Zhang Huchen to sit down, "I'm not talking about the Erli party dispute, but ...... The battle of the palace and the court. ”

"Ahh Prince-" Zhang Huchen was shocked, and when he reacted quite quickly, he had already blurted out the words, and he forcibly made him swallow back the word "party". Zhang Huchen looked at the door nervously, "There is no such thing, there is no such thing, the lower official can guarantee with his life, he is by no means a party of the prince." ”

"Hehehe," Zeng Chongyang looked at Zhang Huchen's blushing old face, and felt quite disdainful in his heart, "Yes or no, the saint has his own judgment." What you and I have to do now is to cut off the rest of the party. I know you're a loving person, and if you really want to save him, you have to help me. Remember, the tree has bugs, and the roots can only be saved by cutting off the branches and leaves. ”

Zhang Huchen was distracted, and said after a long time: "The lower officials listen to the orders of the adults." ”
