Chapter Thirty-Six: Ming Chuang
Qianchuan opened the door, and it was Yan Li and his party standing outside the door.
Due to the heavy rain, except for Qi Tanying and Ting Lan, who had been staying in the carriage, the rest of the people were drenched.
Wu Han's eyes fell on Qi Tanying's face, only to see her frowning slightly, a strand of hair soaked in mist stuck to her forehead, and the whole person was sad and had no energy.
He turned sideways and let them into the courtyard.
After everyone came in, Qianchuan poked his head out and looked around vigilantly, and closed the door after there was no abnormality.
Qi Tanying caught a cold on the road, and in the rain, her body was very uncomfortable, and she actually started to heat up after a while. This made Tinglan anxious, and hurriedly went to the front hall to find Yan Li.
Yan Li and Wu Han were talking in the study, and Qianchuan stayed outside the study, saying that he would not let Tinglan in.
Tinglan had no choice but to beg Qianchuan to find a doctor for Qi Tanying.
Qianchuan refused without thinking about it.
Tinglan pleaded again, "My girl is really sick, Brother Qianchuan, you can do it, help find a doctor, and we will pay for the diagnosis and medicine ourselves." She untied her purse and stuffed it into Qianchuan's hand, "Thank you for these at that time." β
Qianchuan was stuffed with a purse by a girl for the first time, and his face turned red all of a sudden, but his complexion was too dark to be seen for a while.
He looked puzzled: "It's not that I won't help you, it's just that now that the whole city of Rongyang County is under martial law, the slightest carelessness will expose our hiding place, and everyone will be in danger at that time." β
Hearing this, Ting Lan was extremely disappointed, but she couldn't leave Qi Tanying alone.
She decided to go to the doctor herself.
Qianchuan shook his head, "No, the prince has an order, and no one else can be allowed to enter here." β
This won't work, that won't work, Tinglan was a little annoyed, and snatched the purse in his hand, "In that case, I'll take my girl out to see the doctor." β
After speaking, no matter what Qianchuan's expression was, he left angrily.
Yan Li and Wu Han didn't know what happened outside the study, and after Yan Li reported to Wu Han all the things that happened in Wuzhou's bone examination, the two discussed going to Rongyang County to get Gui Zhiyao's incriminating evidence.
Gong Yunniang said that before Gong Zhun died, he collected the incriminating evidence of Gui Zhiyao and Cangzhou officials, and hid it in a secret room in the Rongyang County Mansion. Except for Gong Zhun, only Gong Yunniang knows where the secret room is.
But as soon as they entered the territory of Rongyang County, they encountered several groups of killer attacks, Gong Yunniang and Shen Chao of the Criminal Department unfortunately fell off the cliff, and no one has been found so far.
The two felt that they couldn't go on like this, and they had to find Gui Zhiyao's incriminating evidence as soon as possible.
They decided to visit the Rongyang County Mansion at night.
At this moment, Qianchuan suddenly broke in, "Oh no, Miss Qi was taken away by the people of the Rongyang County Command." β
Yan Li and Wu Han changed their faces together.
Yan Li rushed to Qianchuan and asked angrily, "What's going on?" β
"Miss Qi suddenly had a high fever, and her maid took her to see a doctor in the hospital, and her subordinates were not at ease so they sent Wei Shi to follow them. Who knew that after coming out of the medical hall, he was seen by Yang Qiao, the second son of the Rongyang County Order, who coveted Miss Qi's beauty and took her and the maid to the county order. β
Wu Han sank his face: "Why didn't Wei Shi save people?" β
Hearing this, Qianchuan couldn't help but feel empty, "I told Wei Shi to come back first to report something that happened, and he couldn't act without permission, so he didn't save people." β
Yan Li's eyes were dyed with color when he heard this, and he clenched his fists and turned around and walked out.
Wu Han stepped forward to stop him, "Where are you going?" β
Yan Li's eyebrows furrowed, and his face was gloomy, "Naturally, I went to save the fiancΓ©e of the lower official!" β
Wu Han's body did not move, and he warned: "Don't spoil a big thing because of impulse." β
He said: "Since Miss Qi is in the county order mansion, we will change our previous plan and enter the county order mansion in two ways. β
Hearing this, Yan Li slowly calmed down, and he understood what Wu Han meant.
This is to ask one of them to be in the light and one in the dark, and to rescue people and find the secret room at the same time.
He immediately made a decision: "I'll go and save Atan." β
Wu Han bowed.

Rongyang County Mansion, backyard
After Qi Tanying and Tinglan were kidnapped by Yang Qiaoqiang into the county government, they have been locked up in the west wing of the backyard, Qi Tanying has been asleep due to high fever, and Tinglan is as anxious as ants on a hot pot.
That Yang Qiao intended to take Qi Tanying as a concubine, and after taking her into the mansion, he even held a concubine ceremony.
Rongyang County ordered Yang Yiqun to also mess around with his son, and his son wanted to hold a concubine ceremony, so Lao Tzu posted a banquet for guests.
In this Rongyang County, Rongyang County has the support of Cangzhou Zhizhou, and no one dares to offend the Yang family father and son.
Therefore, after receiving the post, the squires and wealthy businessmen in the county prepared generous gifts to congratulate Yang Qiaona's concubine.
At dusk, the red lantern at the gate of the Lingfu Gate of Rongyang County was lit up, and Yan Li led people to the door at this time.
When he saw two big red silk flowers tied to the stone lion at the door, he pulled out the long sword at his waist with a pale face, and cut it into pieces with a few brushes.
One of the guards at the door shouted, "Who are you?" Dare to spread wild in front of the county magistrate's house! β
Yan Li ignored it, raised his feet and was about to walk inside, when the guards immediately drew their swords and surrounded him and his men.
The guards who spoke up earlier shouted again: "This is the county government, trespassers will be killed!" β
Yan Li glanced at him, his dark eyes filled with a terrifying cold light. With a swing of the long sword in his hand, the guard stared widely, and then fell to the ground, bleeding profusely from his neck.
Seeing this, the rest of the guards reacted quickly, and all of them swung their swords at him.
Yan Li stepped on the tip of one of the guards' knives and jumped up, landing steadily on the stone steps at the door, leaving them to be solved by the patrols behind him.
At this time, in the front yard of the county government, Yang Yiqun and Yang Qiao's father and son were feasting guests, and they didn't know that someone had broken in.
When Yan Li appeared with a sword, everyone was stunned, and Yang Qiao was the first to react and asked loudly, "Who are you?" Why did you break into my county mansion at night? β
Yan Li looked at him like a dead man, and said word by word: "The one who took your dog's life!" β
After speaking, a quick step flashed in front of Yang Qiao, and when everyone saw his figure clearly, the long sword was already across Yang Qiao's neck. The blade of the sword was sharp, and there was a dark red at the beginning of the tip of the sword, which was clearly a trace of dried human blood.
Yang Qiao's chaotic mind suddenly became very clear, and his body didn't dare to move, only his eyes turned to Yang Yiqun's direction, "Dad, save me, save me!" β
The guests at the banquet were frightened by this sudden scene, and some tried to run, but were blocked by the patrols who arrived.
Yang Yiqun boldly walked out of the crowd, "Dare to ask Your Excellency, has my son ever offended you?" β
Yan Li glanced at Yang Qiao, "He kidnapped my fiancΓ©e." β
As soon as these words came out, Yang Yiqun was shocked, and immediately thought of the young woman who was locked up in the backyard by his son, and asked tentatively, "Your Excellency is mistaken?" β
What answered him was a cold look and a sharp sword that pressed against Yang Qiao's neck.
Yang Yiqun hurriedly said: "Your Excellency, if you have something to say, you have something to say, don't hurt my son." β
"Where are the people?" Yan Li didn't want to talk nonsense with him.
Without waiting for Yang Yiqun to answer, Yang Qiao preemptively said: "In the west wing of the backyard." As long as you don't hurt me, I'll take you to her. β
