Chapter 78: Discovered
Gao Yuanli's prescription was indeed very effective, and after only two days of taking the medicine, Qin Qing's symptoms of cold and fever all disappeared. In order to thank Gao Yanli for sending the prescription, Qin Qing decided to call Shangxiu'er and Zixiao to take Gao Yanli and Jing Ke to Xianyang City together. It's a pity that as soon as I arrived at the gate, I was seen by Yu's mother, who came back from going out, and stopped her.
Although the heavy snow has stopped, it is still cold when the snow melts. Yu's mother was worried that she was recovering from a serious illness and couldn't stand the cold outside, plus there was no news from Qin Wen, no matter what good things she said, Yu's mother just shook her head and resolutely refused to let her go out.
Seeing that she was grounded, Qin Qing could only look at the door and sigh, and asked Xiu'er and Zixiao to do their landlord's friendship on her behalf, take the two distinguished guests out to play, and go back to the room alone alone.
Maybe I slept too much when I had a fever, and I couldn't sleep when I went back to my room and lay on the bed, staring at the beam with two big eyes, recalling what Ying Zheng said in my mind, and my heart became troubled again. At this moment, there was a knock on the door, Qin Qing hurriedly got up and opened the door, only to see Gao Yanli standing outside the door dressed in white.
"Huh? Why didn't you go to Xianyang with Xiu'er and them? Qin Qing was very curious, obviously seeing them going out together, why did he only come back from Gao gradually in the blink of an eye.
Gao Yanli smiled slightly: "Senior brother and Xiu'er will definitely quarrel together, and when the time comes, it will be annoying to quarrel, so it is better to be quiet at home, so I found a reason to come back first." ^^ Junzitang's first hair ^^" Imagining the scene of Xiu'er and Jing Ke arguing, the corners of Qin Qing's mouth were lightly raised, the two of them would quarrel as long as they met, and there was really no time to be quiet, probably from the previous life.
"It's the first time you come to Xianyang, you should look around, but it's a pity that Yu's mother won't let me go out, otherwise I'll take you there." Qin Qing felt sorry for Gao gradually leaving.
Gao gradually left but didn't care. Still smiled indifferently: "My junior brother and I will stay in the Qin family for a long time, and we are not in a hurry to visit Xianyang for a while, there will be more opportunities in the future." Qin Qing thought about it, so he didn't say more. Anyway, both of them had to stay in the Qin family to protect her safety. As Gao Yuanli said. There will be more opportunities in the future.
"Won't you let me in?" Gao Yuanli stood outside the door and reminded.
Qin Qing's face was slightly red, and he hurriedly invited Gao Yanli into the house, picked up the teapot and poured tea for him, but found that the tea was already cold. Embarrassed, he said, "There is no hot tea, you wait a minute, I'll call someone to bring hot tea." So saying, he prepared to go out and instruct his servants to prepare hot tea.
"It's okay, I'm not thirsty, but I don't know where to go when I get back to the house, so I'm here to talk to you." Gao Yanli stopped Qin Qing and asked her to sit back: "You are just right." Don't run any further, beware of catching a cold again. ”
"I'm so delicate, this cold was just an accident. ^^ first Jun Zitang ^^" Qin Qing whispered dissatisfiedly, remembering that he hadn't thanked Gao Yanli yet, and then said: "Thank you for sending the prescription, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to heal so quickly." ”
Look at her face that looks thin because of her illness. Gao Yanli blamed himself a little: "Don't thank me, if I hadn't dragged you to chat in the garden, you wouldn't have been sick, and I am responsible for this." ”
The two were chatting, and the voice of Butler Yu came from outside the door: "Young lady is in the room?" Qin Qing opened the door and invited Steward Yu into the room, Steward Yu didn't expect that there were still guests in Qin Qing's room. When he saw Gao gradually leaving, his expression was obviously stunned.
"Uncle Yu is looking for me, but is there something wrong?" Qin Qing saw that his brows were slightly furrowed. I know that something must come to him.
"Qin Wen sent news of the assassin early this morning." Steward Yu took out a piece of cloth from his arms and handed it to Qin Qing, then turned to Gao Yanli and asked, "I heard what I said just now." Xiu'er took Gao Gongzi and Jing Shaoxia out together, why did they come back so quickly. Is it that Xiu'er didn't entertain a good son? ”
"Uncle Yu is polite, he doesn't like the excitement outside, so he went back home first. I just saw the young lady, and I was about to go back to the room, and since you have something to discuss, I will retire first. Faced with Steward Yu's inquiry, Gao Yanli responded indifferently, and then said goodbye.
"I'm really embarrassed, I have something to discuss with Uncle Yu today, so I have to talk about it another day." Qin Qing had something to discuss with Steward Yu, so he didn't keep him too much, so he sent him out.
After Gao gradually left, Qin Qing hurriedly opened Qin Wendi's cloth, and his face gradually sank, the opponent was much more cunning than she imagined. Qin Wen found the assassin on the night he left the Qin Mansion, and then followed his whereabouts secretly with two guards, the assassin was very alert, and Qin Wen and the others never dared to follow too closely.
According to Qin Wen's letter, the assassin called Impure did not leave Xianyang after the assassination failed, but found a dilapidated house on the outskirts of Xianyang to live. In addition to healing and practicing every day, he went into the city to buy some food and daily necessities, did not have too much contact with the outside world, and never talked to others except for shopping. The shops and vendors he went to buy things, Qin Wen also sent someone to investigate, they were all ordinary vendors, and there was nothing wrong with them.
She had thought that if the Assassin mission failed, she would go and confess to her employer, or an intermediary. But he didn't see any movement from this assassin, could it be that he had met people unknowingly under Qin Wen's nose? It shouldn't be possible, Qin Wen is not only strong in martial arts, but also very delicate in his mind, if the assassin really meets someone, he will definitely be aware of it.
"Uncle Yu, let Brother Qin come back." Qin Qing couldn't figure out the joints, so he decided to let Qin Wen go back to his house, give up the clue of tracking the assassin, and find another way.
"Young lady, no!" Hearing Qin Qingdi's decision, Steward Yu hurriedly stopped: "Maybe the people behind the scenes have thought that no matter the success or failure of the mission, we will send someone to track down, in order not to reveal their identity, inform the assassin in advance not to move for the time being, and wait for the rumor to pass before contacting." If you withdraw people at this time, you will fall into their trap, and since you have already found the assassin, it is better to observe for a while. ”
"It's still Uncle Yu who thinks about it thoroughly, since that's the case, I have to work hard for Brother Qin for a while." Jiang is still old and spicy, and she always can't hold her breath at critical moments, but fortunately, there is more than a housekeeper who has been by her side to remind her at any time.
Since Qin Qing asked Steward Yu to tell her to continue to follow, she has not seen the letter come back for several days, causing her to mumble in her heart, lest Qin Wen have another accident. At noon, she was reading the account book in the study, and Xiu'er suddenly ran in, holding a piece of cloth in her hand, and said breathlessly: "Qing'er, Brother Qin has a letter to send back." ”
Qin Qingyi snatched the cloth from Xiu'er's hand, read the letter impatiently, and was silent for a long time after reading it.
"What did Brother Qin say? Haven't you found anyone behind the scenes? Xiu'er saw that her face was wrong, and asked cautiously.
Qin Qing handed the cloth to Xiu'er and said impatiently, "They have been discovered." ”
