Chapter 42: Kidnapping

Shen Qingyan picked up a zongzi and put it on the plate regardless of it, it should have been after Cui Wei peeled the zongzi leaves for her, Shen Qingyan started to eat it again, which was in line with the etiquette, but Shen Qingyan has always cared about these etiquette, not to mention that now she only has Yin Qi and Cui Wei by her side, she doesn't need to take care of these etiquette, and she really wants to eat zongzi and can't think of it.

The zongzi is very large, and it is heavy to pick up, and you can feel that the glutinous rice and filling are very abundant and solid. Shen Qingyan untied the rhizome of the zongzi leaves that were wrapped around the zongzi, and opened the zongzi leaves little by little against the path that the zongzi leaves had surrounded before, and the sweet smell of glutinous rice and candied fruit mixed together came to his nose with a bit of the aroma of zongzi leaves, which caused Shen Qingyan to drool. Shen Qingyan picked up the spoon, scooped up a spoonful of sticky glutinous rice mixed with soft and rotten candied fruit, and put it in his mouth, the sweet and glutinous taste filled the entire mouth, the soft glutinous elastic teeth of glutinous rice and the sweetness of candied fruit were well combined, and the aroma of a few zongzi leaves well relieved the sticky greasy, very delicious.

Shen Qingyan dug spoonful after spoonful, and seeing that most of the zongzi were about to enter his stomach, he was hurriedly stopped by Yin Qi.

"Okay, don't eat any more, eat something else."

Shen Qingyan reluctantly put aside the candied zongzi in front of him when he heard this, and picked up another zongzi, which was a dragon meat zongzi, which was Shen Qingyan's favorite taste, the salty egg yolk and soft meat were combined with glutinous rice, which was very delicious.

Yin Qi watched Shen Qingyan eat zongzi happily, picked up a spoon and scooped a bowl of potato porridge and put it in front of Shen Qingyan. Shen Qingyan happened to eat the egg yolk and ate it a little salty, so he scooped up a spoonful of yellow and clear potato porridge and put it in his mouth, the potato was not too sweet, but it was very delicious, which relieved the saltiness in his mouth very well.

"Don't eat so much sticky." Yin Qi picked up a piece of lilac rice cake and put it on Shen Qingyan's plate.

Shen Qingyan picked up the rice cake and took a bite, it was a faint floral fragrance, not sweet but fragrant, and the floral fragrance in his mouth was pervasive, which was very comfortable.

"You can eat it too." Shen Qingyan noticed that Yin Qi had been serving her vegetables, and she hadn't eaten anything at all, so she picked up a Qingtuan and put it on Yin Qi's plate.

Yin Qi smiled and ate the Qingtuan that Shen Qingyan married him, in fact, he didn't like to eat these sticky things very much, but since Shen Qingyan liked it, it didn't matter if he accompanied him to eat some.

After eating two more Qingtuan, Shen Qingyan hiccuped and couldn't eat anymore. These things are easy to fill, and if you eat too much, you will get tired, so Shen Qingyan can't eat too much.

Yin Qi instructed Cui Wei to take the rest of the things away, and then pulled Shen Qingyan out for a walk, otherwise she would already have a bad stomach, these things are difficult to digest, it is easy to accumulate food, and her stomach will be uncomfortable at that time.

Shen Qingyan took Yin Qi's arm and walked around the garden. Yin Qi was afraid that Shen Qingyan would feel cold, so before going out, he took a cloak and gave Shen Qingyan a carefully surrounding before going out.

Because it was already autumn, the flowering period of most flowers had passed, but Yin Qi knew that Shen Qingyan liked flowers, so he ordered people to plant a lot of chrysanthemums, all kinds of varieties and colors, and even found rare green chrysanthemums, so even in autumn, the garden of the prince's mansion was still like spring and colorful. There are also a few osmanthus trees next to it, it is the flowering season, and the breeze is blowing, and the bursts of golden osmanthus flowers fall down, like a fairyland.

Shen Qingyan admired the beautiful scenery of the garden, and while walking, he rested his head on Yin Qi's arm, and put most of the weight of his body on Yin Qi's body.

"Yin Qi, you say, how are we going to match Ling Guang and Cui Wei?" Shen Qingyan couldn't let go of this matter in his heart, even thinking about it when he fell asleep yesterday.

"These two people have to wait until they really lose each other to feel regretful, why they didn't stay with each other." Yin Qi said lightly.

"Huh? Listen to you, you've got the means. Shen Qingyan looked at Yin Qi happily, waiting for Yin Qi's method.

"Tomorrow, you send Cui Wei to deliver something to your father-in-law and mother-in-law." Yin Qi said to Shen Qingyan with a smile, his eyes were very meaningful.

"Okay, it just so happened that I got some incense a few days ago, and I asked Cui Wei to send it over." Although Shen Qingyan didn't know what Yin Qi's method was, he also understood that this was to spend Cui Wei.

The next day, Cui Wei carried a basket in her hand, which contained the incense that Shen Qingyan gave her, covered with a piece of cloth, and went to Fang Lan'er's pastry shop under the pretense of buying pastries.

"Cui Wei, you're here!" Fang Lan'er was grinding osmanthus powder, waiting to use it when making osmanthus cake, and when she saw Cui Wei coming, she greeted her very warmly. On weekdays, Shen Qingyan can't come too often, so sometimes he will send Cui Wei over.

"Aunt Lan." Fang Lan'er and Shen Qingyan both said to Cui Wei that they don't have to care about etiquette outside, just call Fang Lan'er Aunt Lan, "Miss brought in some incense a few days ago and sent me to send it over." ”

"Hey, okay." Fang Lan'er happily put away the incense that Cui Wei handed over, and took a piece of clothing from the back room and handed it to Cui Wei, "This is the clothes I made for Xiao Yan, you bring it back to her." ”

"Okay, Cui Wei knows." Cui Wei smiled and agreed, pretended to buy a few more pastries, put the clothes in the compartment of the basket, covered them with a cloth, and placed the pastries in the most conspicuous place before leaving the pastry shop.

The pastry shop is not far from the Prince's Mansion, and it is only a few steps away, so Cui Wei is not in a hurry to go back, listening to Shen Qingyan's words and walking around the market, buying some daily necessities or something.

Cui Wei remembered that Shen Qingyan liked to eat fried cakes on the corner of the street, and recently Shen Qingyan hadn't eaten for a long time in order to nourish his stomach, so he planned to go to the corner of the street to buy two fried cakes for Shen Qingyan to satisfy his hunger. But he didn't think about it, just walked to a place where there was no crowd, and before he could go to the corner, Cui Wei was violently covered with a piece of white cloth to cover his mouth and nose, and the manpower behind him was very strong, Cui Wei couldn't even struggle at all, and was taken away directly, the basket in his hand fell to the ground, and the pastries in the bar were knocked over to the ground, a mess.

In the prince's mansion, Shen Qingyan was sitting in the study looking at the book, Yin Qi pushed the door in and made a look at Shen Qingyan. Shen put down the book knowingly, pretending to be very worried.

"Yin Qi, I want Cui Wei to send incense to my mother, it's been a long time, and she hasn't come back yet."

"Maybe she's going to the market." Yin Qi picked up a book and sat down beside Shen Qingyan.

"No, I told her to come back early, she has always been the most measured, and she won't go shopping without telling me." Shen Qingyan shook his head and frowned, "Recently, the matter of the flower thief in Mucheng has been rumored to be the murderer, and it will not be ......."

"Ridge Light." Yin Qi shouted, and before the words fell, Ling Guang appeared in place, and there seemed to be a little anxious on his face, "You go to the market to look for Cui Wei." ”

"Yes." Ling Guang saluted, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"This time, we should finally be together." After Ling Guang left, Shen Qingyan finally couldn't help laughing, asking her to act, it was simply embarrassing her.

Yin Qi doted on Shen Qingyan, and the corners of his mouth couldn't hide a smile.

Ling Guang was faintly worried when he heard that Cui Wei hadn't come back for a long time, and as soon as he heard Shen Qingyan talk about the flower thief, his whole heart was about to jump out of his throat.

Ling Guang first went to Fang Lan'er's pastry shop to see if Cui Wei was still there.

Fang Lan'er was cleaning up the counter, and when she saw Ling Guang's solemn expression, she thought that something had happened to the prince's mansion, so she hurriedly walked over.

"Aunt Lan, is Cui Wei there?" Ling Guang's tone couldn't hide his anxiety.

"Emerald wisps? No, she left early. Fang Lan'er replied with some surprise, Cui Wei has been gone for a while, and the pastry shop is not far from the Prince's Mansion, so she hasn't gone back yet.

"Got it, thank you, Aunt Lan." Ling Guang thanked him and hurriedly got rid of the pastry shop and walked towards the market.

Ling Guang quickly surveyed everyone on the street, but still didn't find the figure of Emerald Wisp. When he walked to the corner of the street, Ling Guang's footsteps suddenly stopped, and he suddenly saw the basket that had been knocked over on the ground, and the basket was clearly the basket that Cui Wi often held when purchasing, plus the pastries that had been knocked over the ground, it was definitely Cui Wisp's.

Ling Guang looked at the mess, and his heart sank suddenly, it was obvious that Cui Wei had been taken captive. Ling Guang took a closer look, and suddenly found that because the pastry was scattered on the ground, Cui Wei and her captor guessed the pastry during the fight, so the two left footprints on the way out.

Ling Guang anxiously followed the footprints, his ability to think was completely lost due to excessive worry, and he didn't realize that these footprints were left too deliberately.

Finally, the footprints became shallower and shallower, stopping in front of a very remote broken house, Ling Guang pulled the sword out of its scabbard, making a crisp collision sound, his eyes were very green, and he kicked the door of the broken house to the ground with one kick, and saw Cui Wei sitting on the ground, her hands and feet were tied with hemp rope, and a piece of white cloth was stuffed in her mouth.

"Emerald Wisp!" The moment Ling Guang saw that Cui Wei was intact and uninjured, he finally let go of his hanging heart, and hurriedly stepped forward to take out the cloth strip in Cui Wei's mouth, and began to untie Cui Wei's hemp rope again.

"How are you, are you hurt?" Ling Guang was still not at ease, and asked Cui Wei while untying the hemp rope.

Cui Wei was in tears, and just wanted to answer, when she saw Ling Guang behind her, her eyes suddenly widened, and she wanted to scream to tell Ling Guang to be careful, but it was too late.

"Poof!" It was the sound of the sword piercing into the flesh, Ling Guang felt a stabbing pain in his shoulder, and just wanted to turn around, but someone tapped him on the neck, and the whole person immediately went limp, and he could only lie in place weakly, looking at the person behind him.

"Beyond light! Lingguang! How are you! Cui Wei hurriedly hugged Ling Guang, but the moment it touched his shoulder, the entire palm of his hand was smeared with blood, and because of anxiety and worry, tears immediately fell like broken threads.

"He's going to die soon." The person who stabbed Ling Guang was masked, his expression invisible, and his voice was very calm, as if what he said was just commonplace.

"Beyond Light...... You can't die...... You can't die! Cui's tears hit Ling Guang's face one by one, and he finally kept muttering these words.

Ling Guang was struggling with all his might, trying to break away the acupuncture point that the person had pointed, and there was a faint strangeness in his heart, the place where the person stabbed him was not a fatal place at all, but a part that happened to bleed a lot and seemed to be seriously injured, but in fact did not cause much damage at all, as if he was deliberately trying to create the illusion that he was seriously injured, but did not want to endanger his life.
