Chapter Seventy-One: Let the Tiger Return to the Mountain
After the news of the flooding of the Tiger Prison came, Yun Zhen instantly understood whose handwriting it was.
Although it is feasible according to her previous method, there are still loopholes in it, and since Rong has done so, he naturally has his opinion.
Fortunately, the Tiger Prison is used to hold felons, even if it is flooded, it is only those strong prisons, as long as they react, their bodies are not locked and there is no burden, even if they want to drown them, it is also difficult.
It's a great way to stall for time.
Yun Zhen groaned for a while, frowned and asked. "Except for Qian Qian, there is no one else?"
Seeing that the person in front of him shook his head firmly, Yun Hao asked with a slight hesitation. "What about Li Jingrui?"
"The regent never showed up."
Hearing this, Yun Zhen's brows not only did not loosen, but also tightened more and more. "You go down first."
Waving his hand to let the man leave, Yun Zhen paced two steps in the room, and Hua Yunxiu, who was sitting on the bed, saw Yun Zhen's uneasy appearance, and immediately spoke.
"Sister Wang, since the regent has never interfered, isn't it easier for the Zhao Mansion and others to escape?"
"That being said." After getting along for a few years, Yun Zhen can also be said to have figured out some of Li Jingrui's temperament. "But if there is such a big movement, Zhao Lao will be imprisoned, and he will also have his hand, if Zhao Lao is rescued, it will be of no benefit to him at all."
"He will never let the tiger go back."
"Maybe Li Jingrui is just worried about Hua Zijing, afraid that he will interfere too much and cause Hua Zijing's dissatisfaction?" Hearing this, Hua Yunxiu pondered for a while, and then asked happily.
"Nope." Yun Zhen shook her head, if Li Jingrui cared about Hua Zijing, the current relationship with Hua Zijing would never be like this.
Li Jingrui can maintain the appearance of this old god, and nine times out of ten he feels that the people of the Zhao Mansion can't escape from his palm.
As for how he could be so confident, Yun Zhen's gaze lingered slightly.
Unless....
Among the people in the Zhao Mansion, there is his eyeliner!
If this is the case, then you must not let Liuli hide those people in the princess's mansion.
Thinking of this, Yun Zhen couldn't sit still, she looked at Hua Yun Xiudao, who was about to stand up with one hand on the table.
"You're so resting, I'll go out."
Hua Yunxiu paused slightly, nodded and responded.
After Yun Zhen walked out of Hua Yunxiu's courtyard, she returned to her courtyard, closed the door tightly, and then said in a deep voice.
"Come out."
The large room was quiet, except for the sound of the wind blowing outside the half-open windowsill.
Yun Zhen's brows tightened tightly in one place and continued. "Since your master asked you to follow me, I called you out, and you didn't hear it?"
Seeing that there was no movement in the room, Yun Zhen took a deep breath, walked briskly to the desk, and took the pen and dropped a few words on the rice paper.
"I don't need you here, go back to your master and deliver a letter for me."
Perhaps he heard the urgency of Yun Zhen's voice, but after a while, a cyan shadow flickered slightly, and then stood quietly in front of Yun Zhen, because Yun Zhen couldn't see the appearance of the man in green clothes clearly with his face, and could only tell from his body that it was a thin man.
The man watched Yun Zhen fold the rice paper in his hand and pushed it over, pinched it in the palm of his hand and looked at it, but did not say anything, put it in his arms and turned around and left.
It was only when the window sill was closed slightly, and Yun Zhen was not relieved in her heart, so she only heard a soft sound in the direction of the window sill.
She originally thought that it was the man in Tsing Yi who turned her head, turned around to take a look, and realized that the person who came was actually Xiao Jiu.
Yun Zhen's pupils dilated slightly, and she unconsciously took a few steps forward and asked in a deep voice. "What? But what happened? ”
Xiao Jiu looked around the room, and after finding that Yun Zhen was the only one, he breathed a sigh of relief, cautiously reached out and closed the windowsill, before he opened his mouth to repeat what Zhao Qinxiu said before, which was exactly the same as Yun Zhen thought.
Hearing this, Yun Hao glanced at Xiao Jiu a few times and asked. "But Liuli asked you to come to the Dehuai Palace, looking for me."
Although it was an inquiring tone, it was very sure between the lines.
Xiao Jiu nodded slightly, and then spoke. "Seventeen, ask the county lord for your opinion."
Yun Zhen groaned slightly, Li Jingrui did not move this time, thinking that he was preparing to catch the cicada and yellow finch behind.
This time, she let him know who was the cicada.
.....
Zhao Shaoqi was suspicious early in his heart, and after being rescued by Liuli and others, he communicated with Zhao's mother in private.
Mother Zhao also knew that this matter was extremely important, and she must not let the hidden traitor find out.
After landing on the boat, Zhao Shaoqi quietly breathed with Liuli.
When Liuli heard this, she immediately took this large group of people to change directions, bypassed the pursuers, and hid in a courtyard under her.
This small mansion is naturally not comparable to the old mansion of the Zhao Mansion that has a hundred years of time, but the people of the Zhao family have been grinding in the tiger prison for a month, where do they dare to pick and choose.
After escaping from the Tiger Prison, the female dependents felt a lot more relaxed, and all returned to the courtyard under Liuli's arrangement, but only a few men were still worried.
"Thank you to the girl for saving me this time, so great kindness Zhao Shaoqi is grateful to my heart." Seeing the old father who had already been settled, Zhao Shaoqi only felt tears welling up in his eyes, and after closing his eyes and enduring it for a long time, he opened his eyes and looked directly at Liuli.
"You should be thankful, not me. It's my master. Liuli just smiled slightly, retracting his gaze from Zhao Lao.
How high-spirited Zhao Lao was in the past, who would have thought that in just over two months, he would fall from one person under ten thousand people to a prisoner under the stairs, and he was tortured and became like this.
Zhao Shaoqi was slightly taken aback, and immediately understood that Liuli was also acting according to orders, and hurriedly asked.
"I don't know who the girl's master is? can let Zhao see the last face, such a great kindness, Zhao is unforgettable. ”
Liuli nodded next door pointedly, and then glanced at Zhao Shaoqi.
"I have already sent someone to inform my master, I think that it will not be long before news will come."
Zhao Shaoqi knew that the meaning of the glass was that the traitor had not been eliminated now, it was like a knife hanging on the beam of the house, if he was a little careless, the people behind the scenes would lose more than he gained.
"Just put the men and women on hold in batches." When she first heard this voice, Liuli was still a little surprised, and she turned around slightly to look at Yun Zhen who suddenly appeared.
She asked Xiao Jiu to go, just to ask Yun Zhen's opinion, and at this moment she never thought that Yun Zhen actually came in person.
In Liuli's surprised gaze, Yun Zhen, who was wearing a riding costume, strode in and walked to the bed and stopped.
Thirteen, who was originally sitting on the bed to diagnose Zhao Lao's pulse, slightly let go of the way and let Yun Zhen sit down to check Zhao Lao's pulse.
Yun Zhen's eyes swept slightly, swept to the medicine box placed on the side, groaned slightly, and still took out a cloth bag from his sleeve and spread it out, and what was resting in it were silver needles of different lengths.
The thirteen, who was subconsciously flashed away by Liuli's gaze, saw Yun Zhen take out the cloth bag, and was immediately taken aback, and hurriedly spoke. "This, Zhao Lao is weak, I'm afraid I can't stand such stimulation."
Zhao was old and frail, and he was locked up in a water prison for several days, and his pulse was already very weak, so it was no wonder that Thirteen didn't dare to start.
Yun Zhen pursed her lips tightly, and just glanced at Thirteen.
Thirteen didn't know why, but the anxious look on his face never faded.
"County Lord?" Zhao Shaoqi was unconsciously a little dazed the moment Yun Zhen stepped in, and at this moment, he couldn't help but say in surprise when he saw Yun Zhen's face. "Light... Lord Huang? ”
Although Zhao Shaoqi is Zhao's old son-in-law, because he has no official position, he has never seen Princess Huasang, who stays in the palace all year round to deal with affairs.
However, this famous Qinghuang County Lord had bumped into him a few times, and it was this person who was seeing him come in at this moment.
Zhao Shaoqi had a momentary moment, let him want to break his head, he couldn't imagine that the one who rescued him from the Zhao Mansion would be the Qinghuang County Lord with this absurd name.
Under such a blow, Zhao Shaoqi actually felt a sour and soft under his feet, and he was unconsciously a little confused.
Liuli looked at Zhao Shaoqi like this, and finally balanced her heart, you see, she is not the only one who is surprised, right?
"Master, what do you mean?" Liuli snorted in her heart, ignored Zhao Shaoqi, who was standing stupidly, turned around and frowned and asked.
"County Lord, if you let the men and women separate, wouldn't it be a surprise?" Zhao Shaoqi hesitated for a moment, although it was the people of the Zhao Mansion who were saved by Yun Zhen, but didn't this method startle the snake?
Yun Zhen moved quickly, neatly and steadily administered a few injections to Zhao Lao, and took a few breaths before he spoke. "It's just to startle the snake."
Zhao Shaoqi was slightly stunned.
Before Zhao Shaoqi came back to his senses, Liuli had already understood what Yun Zhen meant, and his eyes lit up slightly.
Seeing that Zhao Shaoqi hadn't reacted yet, Yun Zhen raised her eyes and glanced at Zhao Shaoqi before she spoke. "If you don't startle the snake, then how can you find out the traitor?"
"If you wait any longer, I'm afraid that what you will wait for is the news that this small courtyard is surrounded by iron buckets."
Compared with the transparency of Zhao Qinxiu, the young master of Zhao Mansion is much worse.
Yun Zhen shook her head secretly, no wonder Zhao Lao had sighed to her, if Zhao Qin was born as a man, why should he worry about the future of Zhao Mansion.
"Again." Yun Zhen raised her eyes and looked at Zhao Shaoqi. "Young Master Zhao is sure that there is only one traitor?"
This sentence was like a dose of fierce medicine, and Zhao Shaoqi opened his mind, staring at Yun Zhen with burning eyes.
Just before he could speak, he only heard Zhao Lao on the bed snort a few times.
The attention of several people immediately shifted to Zhao Lao.
Zhao Lao's breathing was suddenly rapid, and then after Yun Zhen pulled out the two silver needles, his breathing became smoother, and he slowly opened his cloudy eyes.
Zhao Shaoqi saw a lot of Zhao Lao's crazy appearance in prison, and he was ashamed in his heart, only feeling that he was incompetent and couldn't share his worries with his father, so he let his father fall to such a point, for fear that Zhao Lao would go crazy again and accidentally hurt Yun Zhen.
He immediately knelt down with a thud, walked on his knees for a while, and knelt in front of Zhao Lao.
"Father, it is the incompetence of the child that has made you suffer."
In fact, how could Hua Zijing let go of Zhao Shaoqi, the descendants of the Zhao Mansion?
has only been in prison for a few months, and Zhao Shaoqi is a young man after all, so the injuries he suffered in the early interrogation have almost recovered.
