Chapter 289: Dodge
"Open the door, open the door!"
The sound of slamming the door in a hurry shocked the two old men who were sleeping upside down.
In the middle of the night, how could anyone knock on the door?
The two put on their robes in confusion, walked to the door in fright, and asked loudly through the door: "Who is outside the door, why did the third watch come in the middle of the night?" “
"An assassin has infiltrated your house, open the door quickly, and I will enter and search it."
As soon as they heard that an assassin had entered the mansion, the two couldn't help but tremble, this mansion was full of old and weak women and children, in case they ran into an assassin, how could they live.
Thinking of this, the two did not dare to delay for a moment, and hurriedly opened the door.
More than a dozen uniformed officials with torches in their hands rushed in instantly.
"Everyone come out and stand in the courtyard and don't move, you go to these rooms and search.... The others come with me. “
Seeing that they were busy in the backyard, the two old men hurriedly stepped forward and said, "The backyard is the residence of the female dependents, and it is probably difficult for several adults to enter." ”
"What about the backyard, catching the assassin is the top priority, if you dare to stop it, don't blame us for being polite." The leader speaks evilly.
Mama You hurriedly came out of the room and said angrily: "The backyard is the county lord of my family, and several adults broke in at this time, which damaged the reputation of the county lord." “
The leader was full of impatience at this time, afraid that he would not be able to catch the assassin, and it was difficult to keep up with the explanation, so he didn't pay attention to Mama You's words at all.
"What is not a good reputation, you are obstructing like this, but you want to shield the assassins." Before he finished speaking, he broke in with his subordinates.
Mama You and the others hurriedly followed.
"Who are you, what are you doing in the middle of the night?" Zeeland ran out of the room, shouting.
The person at the head didn't raise his eyes when he heard the sound, and shouted: "Search." ”
Seeing this, Lingxian hurriedly ran to Xu Qingyan's door and stopped the official, "My young lady is still sleeping, you can't go in." ”
The officials who searched were a little hesitant when they heard this, although this area was the mansion of a Beijing official with a low official position, it was no longer high and better than them.
At this time, if they forcibly carry out a search, they will ruin the reputation of other girls, and they will not be able to find the person above them afterwards, but they are afraid that they will take their anger out on them.
"Get out of here, even if your young lady is a pig, she should wake up if she is so noisy." The leader shouted.
Before he finished speaking, the door behind the fairy opened without wind, and Xu Qingyan stood by the door in her regular clothes, looking at him with a smile.
Said slowly: "Fang is the one who said that the lord of this county is a pig ......"
It was obviously a very peaceful sentence, but there was an indescribable oppression in the ears of the leader.
The county lord, she just called herself the county lord.......
The leader's heart sank, as far as he knew, there was only one county lord in the dynasty, and the person in front of him was ......
"Girl.... However, the person headed by the lord of Le'an ...... stammered a little.
Xu Qingyan raised her eyebrows and said coldly: "What do you say? ”
"It turns out that he is really the county lord, the villain is clumsy, and where he is offended, he still looks at the county lord Haihan." The leader bows his head and bows his hand.
"Haihan, what do you want to do when you lead the crowd to break into the mansion at night?"
"Please forgive me, the county lord, Wen met the assassination, and we were just ordered to arrest the assassin."
Literature? The man was quite bold.
"You mean that the assassins are in my house?"
"I saw it with my own eyes, the assassin fled here, and it is very likely that he is hiding somewhere in the mansion right now, and in order to ensure safety, I hope that the county lord will allow us to search."
Xu Qingyan was silent for a moment, and then said kindly: "Okay, I can let you in, but you are not allowed to disturb the decorations in my room." ”
These people are so sure that if they forcibly stop them from searching, they will definitely have doubts in their hearts and it will be difficult to let go.
Wen Xuyao is not a person of elegance, if he sues her in front of the emperor because of this, it will not be worth the loss.
"This is nature, the county lord can rest assured."
Xu Qingyan turned sideways slightly, and the two officials standing at the door immediately rushed into the room.
After a while, the two of them came out and replied: "Go back to your lordship, nothing has been found in the room." ”
The leader's face was very unsightly, and they followed the blood all the way, but the traces were broken under the wall, and according to this reasoning, the assassin must have entered this place.
But now that the search has not been successful, they will be at a loss if they persist in entanglement.
In this way, the leader hugged Xu Qingyan and saluted: "County Lord, this disturbance is really a duty, and I hope to forgive me for the offense, since the assassin is not there, I will retire from my humble position." ”
"Hmm." Xu Qingyan responded lightly.
"Let's go, search somewhere else." The leader waved his hand, and everyone immediately retreated.
The officers and soldiers left, and the courtyard instantly fell silent, Xu Qingyan waved her hand at everyone and said, "Okay, it's okay, everyone go to sleep." “
Just as he was about to turn around, he heard the spirit fairy on the side say, "Miss, I'll stay with Zelan to accompany you." “
"No, you can go to sleep too, there are still a lot of things to do tomorrow."
"But now that the assassin hasn't been found, what if he sneaks back into the mansion again." Ling Xian worried.
"Okay, your young lady's martial arts, you still can't believe it, if that assassin really dares to come..."Xu Qingyan raised her hand, "I can chop him to death with one palm." “
"That'..... If there is any movement, the young lady will call us. “
"Well, well, go to sleep, don't think about it so much."
Seeing that the two girls moved back to the room step by step, Xu Qingyan turned around and stepped into the room.
"Who is the girl, and why did you save me?" A cold voice came from the darkness, and there seemed to be a bit of confusion in his tone.
When Xu Qingyan was talking to the spirit immortal, Lin Zifeng woke up, and he didn't hear the words of the officers and soldiers who were the leader.
Xu Qingyan didn't expect him to wake up so quickly, and he didn't answer when he heard the words, turned around and closed the door, and then said lightly: "What's the reason, I'm happy." “
Lin Zifeng froze for a moment, and sneered after half a sound: "That's right, I just kidnapped the girl, why should the girl complain with virtue..."
"Yo, you still know that I saved you, what kind of attitude" Xu Qingyan was angry.
"Hurry up, it's better to go."
If it weren't for his kindness to save people that day, with his outfit, Xu Qingyan would have kicked him out earlier.
No, I have to take that thing back, thinking of this, Xu Qingyan immediately walked to the bedside.
Lin Zifeng was curled up and lying at the bottom of the bed at this time, when he heard footsteps coming, he hurriedly covered his wound and crawled out.
It just so happened that a hand reached out, and with this movement, the hand reached just in front of his chest, and happened to be covering the hand that was covering his chest.
The warm palm covered the back of his hand, and the soft touch made Lin Zifeng's face flush and he froze on the spot.
Under the darkness, Xu Qingyan removed her hand expressionlessly and continued to probe down, and after a while, a paper talisman on her waist was silently retracted into her sleeve.
In the room, a lamp was like a bean, and in the faint firelight, a figure suddenly appeared next to the bed where no one was there.
At this time, the upper body has crawled out of the bed, and it is supporting the ground with one hand, but the lower body is still under the bed and has not climbed out.
Due to the backlight, even if Xu Qingyan was standing in front of him, Lin Zifeng couldn't see her 2k reading network clearly
