Chapter 479: The Jedi Strikes Back - First Looks
"I'm Sui'er next to the eldest lady, and the eldest lady is ...... The eldest lady ...... "Wei Qi pretended to be scared, if it wasn't for the shadow guard pulling the placket of his clothes, I am afraid that he would have been paralyzed on the ground."
"Team leader, this little girl must have been frightened by the appearance of the eldest lady Fang Cai, so she fled all the way from Qionghua Pavilion to here." The shadow guard then let go of Wei Qidao, "I think this little girl's courage is quite big, I heard that there was a timid person on the spot, and I was already scared to death on the spot, and now the entire prime minister's mansion is ......"
"You're dying too long!" The leader of the shadow guard interrupted the words of the shadow guard beside him sharply, "Take care of your mouth, if it reaches the ears of the commander, it will inevitably be punished." ”
"Don't worry, team leader, now the leader is busy capturing the Su Xin next to the second lady alive." The shadow guard picked up Wei Qidao, who was sitting on the ground, "Team leader, what are we going to do with the little maid in the eldest lady's courtyard?" ”
"Is there any news from the Commander?" The leader of the shadow guard continued, "We can't afford to provoke the people in the eldest lady's courtyard, so we should send her back to Qionghua Pavilion and hand her over to the autumn equinox girl to deal with." ”
"My subordinates understood." After the shadow guard got the order, he already roughly grabbed Wei Qi's back and went in the direction of Qionghua.
"Brother Shadow Guard, you're walking too fast, I'm about to lose track." Miqi almost fell under her feet, but fortunately the shadow guard holding her collar stabilized her figure.
"You act quickly, I will return to the team leader after sending you back to Qionghua Pavilion." The shadow guard impatiently urged Di Weiqidao, who deliberately slowed down his pace, "If you delay Lao Tzu's errand, Lao Tzu can't spare you." ”
"Brother Shadow Guard, I really can't go that fast, I'm tired of Brother Shadow Guard walking slower." Wei Qi was already facing the Shadow Guard Fuli beside him, but he accidentally dropped the jade pendant in his sleeve, "Brother Shadow Guard, my things have dropped." ”
Ying Wei followed Wei Qi's gaze and saw the jade pendant that fell on the ground, and then bent down to pick up the jade pendant on the ground for Wei Qi and said, "You are just a little maid in charge of sprinkling and sweeping in the outer courtyard, how can there be such a good jade pendant on your body, you must have stolen the eldest lady's things." ”
"No...... I don't have ......" Wei Qi waved his hand again and again in horror: "I didn't steal the eldest lady's things." After a pause, he continued: "This jade pendant is a treasure handed down from my ancestors, not something in the lady's room." ”
"Is this jade pendant really your family's heirloom?" A greedy glint flashed in the shadow guard's eyes when he looked at Wei Qi, "Isn't it really that you stole the eldest lady's jade pendant out of the eyes of wealth?" ”
"Brother Yingwei, this jade pendant is really a treasure handed down from my ancestors." Wei Qi subconsciously clenched the jade pendant in his hand and said, "If Brother Yingwei doesn't believe it, you can ask the person who lives in the same room as Sui'er." ”
"You are so sure that this jade pendant is your own, I naturally believe your words." Shadow Guard Yibi said that he believed in Weiqi, but Yibi had already forcibly broken Weiqi's fingers and snatched the jade pendant in her hand.
"Return my jade pendant, return my jade pendant!" Wei Qi watched as the shadow guard took away his jade pendant, and then he pounced on it and grabbed the shadow guard's robe tightly and said, "Return my jade pendant, if you don't return my jade pendant, I will sue the eldest lady and let the eldest lady make the decision for me." ”
Ying Wei originally planned to snatch the jade pendant and leave, but now he was threatened by Wei Qi in turn, and at the moment it was already a slap on Wei Qi's cheek: "Seeing that the jade pendant in your hand is worth a few dollars, I originally wanted to let you go, but who knew that you were an unknown person." The shadow guard then showed a fierce look, and grabbed Wei Qi's collar and said: "If you don't eat and drink in the toast, you can't blame me." ”
"What are you going to do......" Wei Qiyan looked at the shadow guard approaching him step by step, and was already forced to retreat step by step, and deliberately said in a trembling voice, "I'm going to call someone if you come over again." ”
"I'm afraid you won't be able to shout soon." The shadow guard had already torn off half of Weiqi's sleeve as he spoke, "You call someone!" Even if I do not escape punishment, your reputation will be ruined with it, and I want to see if you dare to shout anyone. ”
"Don't come here, I beg you not to come!" Weiqi was so anxious that tears flowed out, and he fell heavily to the ground in a slip of his foot, "I don't want the jade pendant, please let me go." ”
"It's too late to beg for mercy." The shadow guard pounced on Wei Qi and said, "If you become my person, I won't have to worry about you denouncing me in the future." ”
"You let go of me! Let me go! Weiqi struggled desperately under the shadow guard, begging for mercy, "Please let me go, I still have a few taels of silver on me, I can give it to you, let me go, please." ”
"People and silver will be Lao Tzu for a while." The shadow guard didn't mean to let go of Weiqi, and with a little force, he tore off another sleeve of Weiqi, "If you know each other, you will obey me, so that you can suffer less." ”
Weiqi was pressed under the shadow guard and couldn't move, but his eyes were no longer panicked, but a sharp light flashed, and then the golden hairpin that was already in his left hand was half submerged into the back of the shadow guard's neck.
A hairpin throat, and the golden hairpin was quenched for half a step drunk, but the shadow guard just widened his eyes, and he was killed in an instant.
"If you seek death yourself, you can't blame me." As he spoke, Wei Qi had already pushed the shadow guard off his body.
In order not to alarm the other shadow guards on duty in the mansion, Wei Qi tried his best to drag the body of the shadow guard behind a stout locust tree and hide it.
After hiding the corpse of the shadow guard, even if Wei Qi had already copied the path towards Ning Wanhua's Qionghua Pavilion, it stands to reason that Wei Qi should have fled to Ning Wanran's Cuiwei Pavilion, but now Zuo Xiang's mansion has been searching for assassins everywhere because of the invasion of foreign thieves, but Ning Banghua's Qionghua Pavilion has relaxed its vigilance because it has just escaped from the assassins.
Weiqi followed the path, avoided the patrolling little guys and came to the outside of Qionghua Pavilion, and saw the little maids frowning and walking towards this side from a distance.
A little maid glanced around, then looked at her companion in horror and said, "Could it be that there is really a demon in this Zuo Xiang's mansion, otherwise how could there be a second lady with white hair and blue eyes, and now even the eldest lady has become that terrifying appearance." ”
Another little maid hurriedly tugged at the sleeve of the little maid and said, "Be quiet, those unclean things are said to be spiritual and will haunt people." ”
After listening to the conversation between the little maids, the doubts that had been lingering in his heart for a long time were finally solved.
Before, Weiqi had never understood what Ning Zhixuan's purpose was to let Bixue mix into Zuo Xiangfu? Now I finally understand what Ning Zhixuan is going around in such a big circle.
Wei Qi looked at the tightly guarded Qionghua Pavilion not far away, and was already thinking of a way to blend in.
"Weiqi, is that you?" When he was at a loss, there was a sudden uncertain voice behind him, "Yes...... Not seven? ”
After Weiqi heard that the source of the voice was the little maid who followed him in Yunxi Pavilion, he had already withdrawn the golden hairpin in his hand into his sleeve.
The little maid saw that it was Wei Qi, and she ran in front of Wei Qi in three steps and two steps and said, "Sister Wei Qi, is it really you?" ”
"It's me." Wei Qi then turned around and responded to the little girl.
The little maid's voice was a little happy because she saw that Weiqi was safe and sound: "I saw that they all went back to Yunxi Pavilion, but I didn't see you Sister Weiqi, so I sneaked out, thinking of coming to Qionghua Pavilion to try my luck." ”
Weiqi hurriedly pulled the little maid and squatted in the grass and said, "I'm just stumbling over something." ”
"Sister Weiqi, why are your clothes torn?" Only then did the little maid see that Weiqi's sleeves had been torn off.
Wei Qi had an idea to think of a good way to blend into Qionghua Pavilion, and then he had already instructed the little maid beside him: "Change your clothes to me, hurry up." ”
"What are you still doing in a daze, why don't you take off your coat to me quickly." As he spoke, Wei Qi took off his torn coat and handed it to the little maid beside him.
The little maid saw that Weiqi was in a hurry, so she hurriedly untied her belt, took off her coat and handed it to Weiqi beside her.
"Do you have anything of value with you?" Wei Qi then reacted that the little maid should not have anything valuable, so he changed his tone and asked, "You don't need anything valuable, do you have a purse or handkerchief with you with you?" ”
"I only have this bead on me, and I was rewarded by the second lady last time." The little maid hurriedly took off the beads hanging from her waist and handed them to Weiqi.
Wei Qi took the bead from the little maid's hand and said, "The things rewarded by the second lady are really exquisite. As he spoke, he took off the earrings hanging from his ears and put them in the hands of the little maid and said, "I'll exchange my earrings for your beads." ”
The little girl pushed back Weiqi's hand as she spoke, and said, "Sister Weiqi has helped me, and this bead bento is my thank you to Sister Weiqi for her help that day." ”
"I still have something to do, so I don't have time to pull around with you here." Wei Qifu put the earring pendant in the palm of the little girl's hand and said, "If you take it, you will keep it." ”
"Thank you, Sister Weiqi." The little maid saw that Weiqi insisted again and again, and she no longer shirked.
Weiqi reminded the little maid again: "Go back quickly, be careful not to be seen by the patrolling servants in the house." ”
The little maid took Wei Qi's words and said, "Sister Wei Qi, don't worry, I will go back quietly by taking the path, and I won't alarm the patrolling guys." ”
