Chapter 13: Miscalculation
Day 6.
"Little brother. โ
"Sister Fei Ya, it's Sister Fei Ya who is here. Hearing Sophia's voice, Zuo Congrong said a word of surprise, turned around and ran downstairs.
"Good boy, you have the guts to contact me after so long. As soon as she went out, Sophia stepped forward and grabbed Zuo Congrong's ear and said indignantly.
"Don't don't, Sister Feiya, listen to me, I have a reason. "Even if it is a god, in the place where anyone who sees the ear will be the first choice of corporal punishment, it will not be much better than ordinary people, Zuo Congrong was in pain, and hurriedly argued.
"Well, you say, I'll listen. โ
"Can you let go of your hand first, my classmate will come out immediately, and see how embarrassing it is......"
"It seems to be late. Zuo Congrong said this, Sophia let go of her hand, pointed behind Zuo Congrong, and said indifferently.
"When did you come down? Seeing that Yaming and Yayue were both standing behind him, Zuo Congrong asked uneasily.
"From the moment she tuggs at your ear!" As if she had anticipated what question Zuo Congrong would ask, before Ya Ming could answer, Ya Yue had already raised the clipboard in her hand.
"Uh....... Anyway, he is also a trainee elder of the magic group who has been canonized in the imperial capital, how can he have to suffer this kind of abuse. โ
"Hello. Ignoring Zuo Congrong's trance-like self-talk, Yaming welcomed.
"Hello, little brother has been disturbing for the past few days. โ
"Where, we have been taken care of. โ
"Can you two not be so polite, I'm still here, making such a lot of life. Let's go back and sit inside, this is not the place to talk. In the face of strangers' words, Yaming and Sophia's attitudes were naturally flawless, but Zuo Congrong couldn't stand the politeness of the moment, and immediately dragged the two of them to the living room.
"How did Sister Fei Ya come here?"
"The agent sent it, why are you asking this?"
"I wanted to ask. How did you get in from outside the house?"
"What do you want to know?" Sophia was asked inexplicably, and some didn't turn the corner.
"Didn't the janitor at the front door embarrass you?"
"Why embarrass me?" Sophia said even more inexplicably.
"It was he who was stopped by the janitor when he came a few days ago, and he was a little curious to see you come in so smoothly. As for Zuo Congrong's curiosity, which can almost be compared to felines, Yaming naturally knows it well and explains.
"Won't you report your identity? Anyway, you are also a trainee elder of the Imperial Capital Magic Regiment, how dare a gatekeeper stop you? โ
โ......โ
"Sure enough, when I met someone, I didn't even show my identity, even if I was stopped. It's well deserved. Seeing that Zuo Congrong was speechless, Sophia smiled.
"Let's get down to business. Seeing that he was making a fool of himself, Zuo Congrong quickly changed the topic.
"What's the matter?" I thought I was just calling her over to catch up and talk about feelings, but I couldn't imagine that there was something arranged, Sophia asked in surprise.
"Well, tomorrow is the day of Yaming's father's funeral, I want Sister Fei Ya to protect Yayue, the Qin Mansion is not peaceful these days. โ
"What are you going to do to protect Yayue?"
"I'm going to protect Jamin. The rules of the Qin Mansion are very troublesome, and when the time comes, the two of them will be separated, and I can only take care of one side. โ
"Okay, I'll do my best. โ
"Hmm. Yayue won't go out tomorrow, as long as she survives tomorrow, there will definitely be no big situation in the Qin Mansion, Sister Fei Ya just pay more attention. โ
"Hmm. โ
"Jingle bells. Jingle ......" While several people were talking, the sound of a doorbell suddenly reached the ears of several people.
"Who is it, why do I still have people here?" said Yamin, somewhat unguessed. Got up and walked out the door.
"Are you?" saw that the visitor did not know, and Yamin asked suspiciously.
"I'm coming back from the Qingcheng Branch, my name is Qin Lu, it's normal that Young Master Yaming doesn't know me. I'm here to convey the news that Young Master Yafeng has given you, and in five days, the Big Dipper Emperor will be returning from his journey, please prepare and properly solve all the problems, especially in the mansion, Miss Yayue's side is the top priority. Regarding the funeral, Master Yafeng has his own arrangements, please don't worry about Master Yaming. As soon as Qin Lu entered the door, he directly expressed his intention and said.
"Brother Yafeng's people?" asked Yamin, confused.
"Well, please remember what I said, I can't stay here for too long, and I hope Young Master Yaming will forgive me. After that, Qin Lu didn't wait for Yaming to continue asking, turned around and walked out.
"What's wrong?Who was that person just now?" Seeing that the two of them muttered a few words at the door and then dispersed, Zuo Congrong asked suspiciously.
"It's someone sent by Brother Yafeng, who said that Uncle Chengfeng will be back in five days. Yamin, too, was confused, explained.
"Why did he tell you this?"
"I don't know, it shouldn't do him any good, right?" Jamin wondered, wondering.
"What are you talking about?" asked Sophia, who didn't know what was going on, as the two of them were confused.
"......" was asked by Sophia, Zuo Congrong immediately remembered that there was a brilliant military advisor in front of him, where did he still need to use his brain. Immediately told Sophia about the current situation.
......
"That's right...... , that's still according to the plan you planned before. Whoever it is, the first target is definitely you, and it's much easier to do it outside the city than inside the house. As for whether what Qin Yafeng said is true, there is no need to think about it at the moment, after all, it is the most important thing to solve the current matter, presumably no matter how arbitrary the second master is, he will not dare to make a big move in this mansion, right?" After Zuo Congrong's explanation, Sophia thought about it and said.
"If what the eldest brother said is true, it is Yayue who should pay more attention. Yamin argued with some unease.
"That's true, yes, but this premise is gambling, and if you make a mistake, I'm afraid you'll lose your life. Sophia replied.
"But if what the eldest brother said is true, it is Yayue who has an accident. โ
"Well, but even if something happens to Yayue, it can't be as miserable as you, don't forget, what is their purpose in arresting Yayue. It's just to seize the position of head of the family, and Yayue is just a bargaining chip against you. As long as you live, nothing will happen to Yayue. In addition, Yayue and you are also orphans of the head of the Qin Mansion, even if Yayue is arrested, she will definitely not be abused, you can rest assured. Sophia explained.
"But ......"
"How much do you spoil your sister, I said that on the one hand, your life is on the other, and on the other hand, Yayue's freedom, don't you think about which is more important. Seeing that Yaming was so stubborn, Sophia said helplessly.
โ......โ
"With Sister Feiya's protection, I'm fine. "Maybe I think Yamin is worried too much. Yayue wrote on a clipboard.
โ......โ
"Okay, I'll think of a way for you again, tell me, the rules of your Qin Mansion, when did the deceased enter the ground?" Seeing that Yaming looked like he didn't eat oil and salt, Sophia was finally defeated and asked.
"Twelve o'clock in the afternoon, what's the matter?" asked Yamin, confused.
"How far is it from the tomb to the house, and how long does it take to return?"
"About fifteen miles. The return journey takes two hours. Why do you ask this?"
"It's nothing, two hours, you should be able to relax, right? You can draw the place where the tomb of the Qin Mansion is located for the younger brother, and let him pick you up at twelve o'clock at noon." If it takes two hours to return, Yayue only has two hours to protect me. โ
"You...... What do you mean?" Hearing it inexplicably, Yamin was a little confused. Asked.
"It's also the day of the funeral of the head of the Qin Mansion, even if they want to do something to you, they will definitely not choose to be on the way to the funeral. Will only shoot on the way back. So at the time of the funeral, even if the younger brother doesn't go, you are safe. As long as the dead are buried in the ground, you will be well protected on the way back. It's only two hours, is that acceptable?" asked Sophia.
"Okay. "Indeed, Zuo Congrong has the strength to definitely protect the two of them, but even if Zuo Congrong leaves, there is still a strong man on Yayue's side to guard, in the end, it is only two hours, there shouldn't be any big problems, right?
"It's really troublesome, if you don't have anything to do, let's disperse, is there a room for me?" Presumably a little tired by Jamin, Sophia looked for a place to rest as soon as they had discussed it.
โกโกโก
"Yaming, are all arrangements made over there for Yayue?" In the funeral procession, Yaming and Yafeng, as nephews, walked at the front of the line, Yafeng asked.
"Big brother asked Yayue what he was doing?"
"I'm worried that the second uncle will attack Yayue. โ
"It's been arranged, why did the eldest brother suddenly ......"
"Suddenly concerned about your side of the situation?" Yafeng smiled and took Yamin's words.
"Hmm. โ
"Because Uncle Chengfeng is coming back soon. Yafeng replied.
โ๏ผ๏ผ๏ผโ
"After the death of the uncle, you came back a few days later than me, I'm afraid you don't know how chaotic the house was at that time. There are seventeen elders in the clan, and twelve of them support the second uncle to succeed him as the head of the family, what do you think will happen if I don't compete with the second uncle for the position of head of the family?" asked Yafeng.
โ......โ
"I know that the position of the head of the family belongs to you, but you are still young, and you don't know anything about the affairs of the mansion, and you don't even have your own power in the mansion, and Uncle Chengfeng has already gone to the ice field at that time. Even if you come back, I'm afraid you won't be able to succeed as the head of the family. Therefore, I can only restrain the second uncle and wait for Uncle Chengfeng to come back. Seeing that Yaming didn't say anything, Yafeng continued to explain.
"Why are you helping me?"
"I'm your eldest brother, to be honest, I don't care if you can succeed as the head of the family, I just don't want you to die. Yafeng replied.
"......" After Yafeng said this, Yamin also understood what Yafeng meant.
Although there are twelve elders in the mansion who support Qin Hao, after all, the orthodox successor is Yaming, if there is no accident, no matter how many elders in the mansion support him, I am afraid it will be difficult to take the position of the head of the family. Only when this heir is gone, Qin Hakama's succession to the position of head of the family can be logical. And Yaming has no power in the mansion at all, even if he is killed, I am afraid that no one will avenge him.
And Yafeng's sudden appearance disrupted Qin Hao's plan. Qin Hakama, who was originally focused on dealing with Yamin, had to turn his attention to Yafeng, who was supported by the external pragmatic faction. At the same time, because of Yafeng's restraint, Qin Hakama also had to leave Yaming behind. Although Yamin is of little use, he is able to delicately balance the contradiction between external and internal affairs. So that there will be no turmoil in the Qin Mansion, so that Yaming can also be in a safe corner of the Qin Mansion that seems to be calm but is actually surging undercurrents.
"Now that Uncle Chengfeng is coming back soon, the second uncle must have been anxious and dared to use any means, so the next few days are the most important thing. In fact, staggered today, the second uncle has no way to do anything to you, so he will definitely pick and choose to do it today, I have already arranged it here, as long as Yayue's side is protected. This war is our victory. Yafeng replied.
"Yayue's side?" After Yafeng said this, Yaming was startled and asked urgently.
"Well, it doesn't matter, isn't there Zuo Congrong over there, no matter how powerful the second uncle is, I'm afraid he won't be able to invite a master who can suppress all the gods and men, right?"
"Yayue's side, Yayue's side is going to have an accident. Jamin looked at his watch, which was already halfway past eleven. Urgent.
"What's wrong?"
"Zuo Congrong, Zuo Congrong is coming here soon. Jamin said sadly.
"What are you talking about?" Originally, seeing that Zuo Congrong did not follow, he thought that Yaming had followed his advice and arranged for Zuo Congrong to protect Yayue. I never thought that Yaming would let Zuo Congrong come over at this time, Yafeng exclaimed.
"It's late, I'm afraid Aaron has already set off, and he should be around at twelve o'clock. Yamin gestured to his watch. explained.
"What can I do about this, will Zuo Congrong keep the phone open?" Even if it was almost impossible to see hope, Yafeng asked like a lifesaver.
"No, it won't. He didn't have the habit of using the phone in the first place, and sometimes he wouldn't turn on the phone at the specified time, let alone at this time. Yamin tried the phone, shook his head and replied.
"Can't you reach him?"
"No way, how many people have you arranged here, big brother, why don't you send them over?" Yamin also asked eagerly.
"Three. It's useless, they haven't shown up in the Qin Mansion, I'm afraid they won't even be able to enter the mansion, and in the current situation, I can't call them out to give them the task. Yafeng looked at the people of the Qin Mansion who were about to hold the funeral ceremony, and said helplessly. If it weren't for the nephew who was so close, Ya Fengshang would still be able to sneak away to arrange tasks. However, as the nephew of the deceased, he not only had to fill in the soil and kowtow to the deceased, but also burned paper to sacrifice the grave after entering the ground, so there was no possibility of leaving.
......
At the same time, the Qin Mansion.
"Amu, Zuo Congrong has already left, do you want to do it?" A person stood by the window on the floor a hundred meters away from Yamin's residence and said to the people inside.
"Wait, Sophia is also inside, and it will be worth the loss to start and shock Zuo Congrong back. And the employer's grandfather has instructed us to minimize the movement as much as possible, and isn't it our creed to share the worries of the employer. "The man who is called Amu is quiet.
"It's too difficult for him to be strong, snatching hostages from a strong man with ritual weapons in his hands, how can the movement be small, in my opinion, it's better to go over and grab it back, anyway, it doesn't make any practical sense to minimize the movement, why bother, there are three of us, what are we doing secretly." โ
"Ah Kun, do you know why you haven't been entrusted with a single mission by the head of the group until now?" the third person in the room sighed and asked.
"Why?"
"Can't your temper be a little more stable, always so hot. Let's just say that a few days ago, if you weren't so impulsive, how could you have a conflict with Sophia. If it weren't for the conflict of that day, I'm afraid that today we would have gone in and snatched people out, and no one would have known that it was the sun that did it. โ
"What if it's known that it's the sun, can you still do anything to us?" If Sophia and Zuo Congrong were here, I am afraid that they would recognize who these people in front of them were. It was clearly the members of the Sun Troupe that I met in the Ice Light Hotel on Suzaku Street that day.
"Ha! Amu, you explain to him, I have nothing to do with this kind of player, I really can't stand this low IQ. I really don't know how you cultivate, but you can actually reach the level of a strong person. The third person shook his head, and returned to the sofa in the living room very unbearably, ignoring Ah Kun again.
"What, am I wrong?"
"Ah Kun. Although our mercenary group ranks fifth among the seven mercenary legends, it is still too far behind the names of the six nobles. In the final analysis, except for the first three, the legends of the seven mercenaries are just glorious titles given to us by the reckless, and compared to the real power of the camp of the six nobles, they are not at the same level at all. Anyway, it is also a noble family in the camp, and the Burning Sun Mercenary Group broke into the mansion to make trouble, if this matter is spread out, not to mention the Douhuang Mansion and Ice City, it is the entire camp, and I am afraid that we will not have the strength to gain a foothold. Amu explained.
"Isn't it so serious? weren't we hired by the second boss, and they planted us a false accusation, and we can't come up with an employment contract to refute them. Ah Kun asked, puzzled.
"Here's the problem, in order to deal with his family, he invited outsiders to help, this kind of ugly thing, do you think the second boss will leave any handle? I'm afraid the commission we received is just a verbal agreement. Amu guessed.
"Why do you think it's a verbal agreement?"
"Didn't the captain give us orders, don't let us be too ostentatious. With the temper of the captain, do you think that if we had no scruples, they would have told us this? Moreover, this Qin family has a great cause, even if it is a verbal promise, I am afraid that it will not be relied upon. Amu said as if he had guessed the inside story of the transaction.
