Chapter 122: The Owl's Head
At this time, although the key has not yet arrived, the house is already brightly lit, and the palace lights are hanging high, which illuminates the shadows even more gloomily.
The servants outside the second gate all gathered in front of the door when they heard the news, and the man's strength was greater than Qin Yining's, and the family guards also got the news and hurried over.
But Qin Yining is Qin Huaiyuan's daughter-in-law, a serious master in the house, these people don't dare to make a move against the young lady even if they have a hundred guts, and they can only surround Qin Yining and dare not move.
Qin Yining was already raising his willow eyebrows at this time, and his cherry lips were pursed. I just had a fight with the maid and the woman, and this time the sideburns are loose and sweaty, if it is consumed with these people, and when someone in the inner house chases her out, she is afraid that she will not have the upper hand.
"Get out of the way! Otherwise, I tell my father that you mean to be disrespectful to me!" ”
"Fourth Miss, the villains are also acting on orders, and the old lady said that you are not allowed to go out." The nursing home had a bitter face.
Qin Yining's face softened slightly, and his voice was still stern: "You dare to make peace between the masters?" Aren't you afraid of taking a tired family? Get out of the way, I will explain to my father that the old lady is old, and she is only suitable for managing the affairs of the inner house, and she can't manage the affairs of the outside, not to mention who is in charge of this family, don't you know? ”
Everyone looked at each other, and finally hesitantly made way for Qin Yining.
Qin Yining saw the time, lifted the hem of her skirt and ran out quickly.
The maid in the inner house chased to the door at this time, panting and leaning against the wall, panting and panting, pointing in the direction of Qin Yining with a dry mouth and unable to say a word for a long time.
This fourth lady is too good at running, and she didn't see how hard she worked, so she threw them away when she raised her feet.
Seeing that everyone is gone. The servants in the outer courtyard were still stupidly poking, and the maids and maids were also very helpless, so they could only go back to restore the old lady's life.
When the old lady heard that Qin Yining had broken out, she lost her temper again, and the entire set of blue and white porcelain tea sets in the house was not left intact.
When the old lady lost her temper, Qin Yining had already arrived outside the mansion, and saw that the shopkeeper Zhong, Bingtang and Songlan were beside a carriage at the corner of the street, stretching their necks to look in front of the mansion.
Seeing Qin Yining coming out, he hurriedly beckoned to her, and Bingtang ran over with his skirt, helping Qin Yining and saying, "Girl, are you okay?" Thanks to Sister Songlan coming to call me, the two of us slipped out while no one was paying attention, and just saw that many people were running towards the second gate, and we were worried that the girl would not be able to break out. ”
"Don't worry, they won't dare to touch me."
As he spoke, Qin Yining had already arrived in front of the carriage.
"Shopkeeper Zhong, let's get in the car first and talk as we walk."
"Yes."
Qin Yining smiled gratefully at Shopkeeper Zhong, and let Bingtang and Songlan sit with the driver outside, leaving Shopkeeper Zhong to talk in the carriage.
The carriage sped in the direction of the palace.
In the carriage, the shopkeeper Zhong was still a little restrained.
Qin Yining said with a smile: "The shopkeeper Zhong is an elder, so I will ask the big to talk to the big shopkeeper." ”
A sentence of "elder" woke up the shopkeeper Zhong.
In terms of age, they can all be grandchildren, not to mention that they are masters and servants, and no one can criticize them.
The shopkeeper of Zhong Da let go, and Zhengse said: "I have ordered someone to inquire about the affairs of the palace." It is indeed said that the eldest lady of the palace clashed head-on with the queen mother, and was killed by the queen mother in anger. It will only come true until the emperor's wishes. ”
Qin Yining wrinkled his eyebrows and said, "Is this really the case?" ”
"Is the owner suspicious of this?"
"At first, I was indeed suspicious, even if the emperor is confused, he still wants to save face, my father has just returned from the successful peace talks for him, how can he kill the hero's wife in the blink of an eye?"
Shopkeeper Zhong shook his head and said in a low voice: "Our emperor's actions have never been inferred from the style of ordinary people. ”
In order to protect himself, the emperor doesn't want to lose face, and has he done less to harm Zhongliang?
Qin Yining's brows were about to twist into pimples, and he said anxiously: "Shopkeeper Zhong, is there a way for us to save my mother's life?" Are there any connections in the palace? ”
"The proprietor only commands, but whoever has the ability to do it, the old man will not refuse. Besides, Zhaoyunsi's connections are the connections of the owner. The shopkeeper Zhong laughed when he said this, "Before I came, I heard about the affairs of the palace, and I guessed that the owner would not stand idly by, and would definitely think of a way to rescue his wife." It is because we have already arranged for someone to buy off the guards guarding the door, and when the time comes, we will get the clothes of the inner prisoner, and think of going in and stealing the eldest lady out. ”
Qin Yining looked at the wrinkled but very loving and sincere face of the shopkeeper Zhongda, his nose was sour, and tears almost flowed down.
The shopkeeper of Zhong Da is an outsider, and he can still think of a way for her because of her original efforts and regardless of her own safety
The old lady has been with her mother for nearly 30 years, and she is still so cold-hearted.
The coldness in that house was beyond Qin Yining's imagination. And with the comparison, it is more and more possible to see who is close and who is sparse, and who is reliable.
The carriage was narrow, but Qin Yining still saluted the shopkeeper Zhong: "Don't thank you for your kindness." ”
"The proprietor must not do this!" The shopkeeper Zhong hurriedly helped him and said: "If it weren't for the owner, our family would have been retaliated against by those people in Qingliu and tossed until the family was ruined, maybe the old grave grass has grown a foot high, where can we still sit here and talk to you?" If you don't repay your kindness, it's not an old style, and the owner won't be so polite to me in the future. ”
Qin Yining dipped the tears in the corners of his eyes with his cuffs and said, "Okay, I won't mention it in the future." ”
"What are the plans of the owner to save people?"
"If there is anyone lost in the palace, it will definitely be thoroughly investigated, and I can only arrange for my mother to escape. As for me, I can't go. When the time comes, it will be a separation. Qin Yining was a little depressed, but cheered up in a blink of an eye, "But no matter what, as long as there is life, there will be a day to meet." ”
Hearing this, the shopkeeper Zhong nodded, and admired Qin Yining's perseverance and perseverance when he was in danger.
While speaking, the carriage had arrived at the "Guilin Building" under the Zhaoyun Division, which was closest to the palace.
At this hour, there were still many diners in the Guilin Building, and Qin Yining didn't dare to show up in front of the public, so he went to the backyard first to wait for news.
Who knew that the big shopkeeper of the clock would bring back even more desperate news with a serious face.
"The owner, our people just inquired, saying that not long after you left the Qin Mansion, the people in the palace went to spread the word again, and the matter of the eldest lady has made a big fuss, from poisoned wine to death, to tomorrow at noon, the head of the owl outside the gate is displayed to the public."
Qin Yining heard a bang in her head, and the white porcelain blue and white bowl fell from her jade white hand and landed on her lap, splashing the hot tea all over her legs, and then falling to the ground, making a shattering scream.
"Girl!" Bingtang and Songlan hurriedly stepped forward to check the hem of her skirt for her, for fear that she would be burned.
Fortunately, in winter, it was thick and thick, otherwise this bowl of hot tea would not be burned if it was poured on the leg.
Shopkeeper Zhong sighed and said, "Don't be too sad, boss. ”
Qin Yining took a few deep breaths before forcing himself to calm down, and said in a slightly trembling voice: "Did you hear that the shopkeeper Zhong is for what?" ”
The method of death of giving poisoned wine can also claim that people died violently, and it can be regarded as retaining the dignity after death.
However, the punishment of showing the public outside the gate at noon did not even give a chance to cover up.
Beheading is not the same as beheading.
Decapitation is simply beheading.
But the head of the owl hung the severed head high on the wooden pole for public display.
This is the punishment for the wicked.
What did Sun do wrong?
Zhong Da's shopkeeper said: "It is said that the lady insulted the emperor as a faint king, saying that the emperor specializes in mutilating Zhongliang, why don't you die early and take care of your life......"
Qin Yining covered his forehead, and he didn't know how to deal with it for a while.
No matter how strong she is, in the end she is just a girl who has not yet reached the end of her life, even if she has seen many people's warmth and coldness, in the face of this kind of big event, it is still difficult to choose, and she is in a hurry.
"What about my father? Will my father go home now? "Father must have a way to save people!
Shopkeeper Zhong shook his head: "I haven't heard the news of Master Qin's return to the house." ”
Could it be that my father was dragged into trouble and locked up?
Qin Yining's eyes looked straight at the flickering candle flame, holding his forehead and being concentrated.
Although Bingtang and Songlan were anxious and angry, they didn't dare to interfere with Qin Yining's nonsense, so they just followed aside.
After a moment, Qin Yining's eyes became firm.
"In any case, I can't watch my mother die. Even if she scolded the faint monarch and was suspected of committing a crime, it was just because Geng Zhi told the truth, and the fall of the Dingguo Mansion was wronged. It's just that the more he does this, the more people will scold him. ”
"Yes, Madame is not wrong." The shopkeeper Zhong said in a low voice: "But what can you do?" ”
"In any case, I have to try my best, but the big shopkeeper Zhong is not good to participate in the later things. You only help me to go to the road to inquire about whether there is a brother in the road who is willing to take a risk for my mother. I believe that there will be brave men under the heavy reward, as long as the silver is enough, there should be a knight who is not used to seeing the faint king's actions. ”
"You're going to rob the Dharma Field!"
"Yes." Qin Yining nodded.
Shopkeeper Zhong pondered for a moment, and said, "We don't have much else in Zhaoyun Division, but we have connections, so I'll inquire immediately." Let's do our best, and don't be too tired. ”
Qin Yining said gratefully: "You have to be careful about this matter, don't come forward in person to involve yourself, you just push it on me." When someone hires you, you don't want to be involved in this matter, just be the treasurer of your Zhaoyun Division. ”
"What the girl said, my old Zhong is not the kind of ungrateful person."
"I know the character of the big shopkeeper. But you're not alone, you have a family. Listen to me, don't meddle in this matter, just instruct a few more layers of people, and go around the bend to hire people. ”
Shopkeeper Zhong opened his mouth, but finally swallowed his words, nodded heavily, and walked out quickly.
Bingtang went to find a skirt and served Qin Yining to change it into.
"Don't worry, girl, just rest for a while. No matter what you want to do tomorrow, you also need to recharge your energy to have strength, right? ”
Qin Yining pursed her lips and nodded, and said for a while: "You all go down, I want to be alone." ”

Yining: I'm my mother, how can I tell the truth!
Xiaoxiao: I want to be a little rabbit, and I have fun!
Erbai: Hmph!
