Chapter 271: Running away
"I said that the master had something to ask you."
"Okay, I'll go straight over."
Qin Ling glanced at the outfit on his body, and didn't care about anything, he stepped directly into another path and walked towards Lord Qin's study.
As soon as I arrived at the study, I saw Mrs. Qin guarding outside the courtyard of the study.
"Your dad is angry, you should answer carefully." Mrs. Qin quietly greeted Qin Ling.
Qin Ling nodded, pushed the door and walked in.
"Dad, what are you looking for me?"
"Where have you been?"
Lord Qin glanced at Qin Ling's slightly plain clothes, and knew that she must have gone out.
Qin Ling thought about it, and had no choice but to tell him, "I just want to see Meng Zhiyi."
Lord Qin sneered when he heard this, "It's strange that she met you at this time. Do you have a brain? Isn't the daughter of a merchant wise?"
Qin Ling was a little unwilling in his eyes, and pursed his lips without refuting this sentence.
She actually guessed that Meng Zhiyi would not be able to see her at this time, but she still wanted to hold on to a glimmer of hope.
Seeing that Qin Ling didn't speak, Lord Qin continued to ask, "Since you got those men from the Qin family, why didn't you keep doing it, it would be better to kill them early, and now you suddenly put them back, aren't you lifting a stone to shoot yourself in the foot?"
Qin Ling really didn't have such a ruthless mind, "I just want to threaten Meng Zhiyi."
"It's a waste of energy to do those things that tickle your boots. Do you know why the three princes went so aggressively to arrest people last night?"
"Why?"
Qin Ling knew about this early in the morning, but she didn't know the details clearly.
"Why? Because he wants to cure our Qin family's sins."
Lord Qin snorted coldly.
Only then did Meng Zhiyi realize that Lord Qin was still wearing an official uniform, and his official hat was placed in the corner of the table.
Lord Qin's face didn't have the same anger as before, as if there was a strange harmony.
As if to say: this day has finally arrived, and he has been waiting for this day for a long time.
Qin Ling's eyes were a little red, and he walked up to Lord Qin and knelt down, "Dad, our family has done so many things for the third prince, is it possible that he really wants to deal with our Qin family?"
Lord Qin sighed and looked at Qin Ling, "Since ancient times, it has been cooked by cunning rabbits and dead lackeys. What's more, we also helped Lu Nanfeng Peak halfway. The third prince is so suspicious, he can't keep us. Besides, there is a poisonous snake behind us, at this time, the knife is sent to the hands of the third prince, how can he not be moved?"
"But now he's not in a secure position, and he needs us very much." Qin Ling didn't understand it very much.
She has only been married to the third prince, and she has not officially married into the royal family.
"I heard that last night that assassin broke into the study of the third prince at night, and was almost caught in the study, and during the fight, a lot of pages fell from his body, and the pages were full of charges from our Qin family."
"All the secret guards in that courtyard, the subordinates in the courtyard of the Three Princes, and the Nine Emperor Princes who were guests in his house have all seen it. Even if the Third Prince can use us now, he will kill the chicken and respect the monkey."
Lord Qin had already figured out all these things.
Qin Ling: "It's just some subordinates, it's a big deal to dispose of all those subordinates, isn't this matter just something that can be suppressed?" As for the Nine Emperor Princes, did these things happen to the Nine Emperor Princes?"
"Do you think the Third Prince doesn't want to? At this juncture, there may be how many emperors are in his palace, and besides, there was a lot of uproar last night, and the emperor should have received the news a long time ago. Our whole family...... Lives are over!"
Qin Ling couldn't say a word anymore, and only looked at Lord Qin with red eyes.
Lord Qin reached out and touched Qin Ling's head, "Ah Ling, have you always blamed your father for not letting you marry Lu Nanfeng!"
Qin Ling shook his head, directly
Denied it.
Lord Qin opened his mouth and was about to say something, when he heard a knock on the door outside.
Madam Qin's voice came from outside, "Master, someone from the yamen is coming outside."
"What's that?"
"It is said that someone sued Ah Ling for using the right of the military department to buy people to frame others."
"What? Don't those people even want to let my daughter go?"
Lord Qin let out a low roar and stood up from his seat, not caring about Qin Ling who was kneeling on the ground, and hurriedly went to open the door.
Mrs. Qin was already anxious like an ant on a hot pot outside, and when she saw Lord Qin coming out, she hurriedly grabbed his arm, "Master, what's going on outside?"
"You'll find out right away."
Before he finished speaking, he saw two catchers walking in the courtyard, followed by a eunuch in a maroon robe.
"Lord Qin, the emperor urgently announced your entry into the palace."
The eunuchs in the palace all came in person, and those yamen didn't dare to take people anymore, so they could only stand aside and look at Lord Qin silently.
Lord Qin had been waiting for this moment for a long time, turned around and went back to get his official hat, and then followed those eunuchs out of the Qin Mansion.
Mrs. Qin followed with tears in her eyes, "Master...... ...... old man"
Very reluctant.
Qin Ling also came out, crying and looking at Lord Qin's back.
But Lord Qin never said a word again, didn't even explain a word, and didn't even look back.
"Ah Ling, do you think your father can come back?" Madame Qin looked at Qin Ling on the side.
"Mother, I'm sorry, it's all my ...... to blame."
Speaking of this, Qin Ling hurriedly grabbed Mrs. Qin's hand, "Mother, go back to your mother's house now!" Don't pack your stuff anymore, bring something valuable, and go back right now."
Mrs. Qin's maiden home is far away in Mangzhou, and it takes at least two days to ride in a carriage.
"Why?" Mrs. Qin was very puzzled.
"Mother, don't ask. You should bring back as much of value as you can."
Qin Ling said this, and took Mrs. Qin's hand and put her usual jewelry box and small vault into a package.
"Mother, you go quickly."
Qin Ling personally sent Mrs. Qin to the back door.
Seeing Qin Ling's appearance, Madam Qin shook her head, "Let's go together!"
When she was packing her things, she had already thought about it inside and out.
Mrs. Qin said to the old mother beside her, "Didn't you say earlier that I was going to the temple in the suburbs to pray for my family's blessings, and now I just use this reason to take someone to the temple in a carriage."
This old mother was married to the Qin Mansion by Mrs. Qin, and she has always been by her side and has never left. As long as she shows up, she can make everyone believe that Qin Fu went to the temple.
And the location of Mangzhou and that temple is in the opposite direction.
The old lady nodded, "Yes, Madame must take care of herself."
Madam Qin nodded, and forcibly pulled Qin Ling up to the carriage.
Qin Ling was a little reluctant, "Mother, you can leave by yourself first!" I can't walk yet. I've got to help my dad get around."
Do you really want to abandon your father and leave by yourself?
And Qin Ling remembered that Mrs. Qin loved her father very much, I just had something to do at this time, and her mother was so sensible, she just said to leave.
"No, you have to come with me."
Mrs. Qin also has her own small treasury, and after so many years in the Qin family, she is not in vain.
At this time, he just moved on and left, never thinking about Lord Qin.
The coachman was replaced by a middle-aged guard with strong martial arts, he lifted the curtain and glanced at it, then hugged his fists at the two of them, and said in a deep voice, "Let's go."
This person dressed as a guard, Qin Ling had never seen before.
Mrs. Qin looks like this, like
Everything will be ready as it is.
Qin Ling was fighting between heaven and man in her heart, but after she made a decision, the carriage had already driven out of the city gate safely.
Madam Qin patted Qin Ling's hand, "No matter what, just when we are going back to visit relatives this time. Ah Ling, my mother will never let you have anything to do."
Qin Ling nodded, and with some anticipation, he lifted the curtain and glanced at the Kyoto City Gate, which was gradually moving away.
Chengyi Garden Study.
Lu Nanfeng also received the news immediately.
Xuanyi: "Madame Qin and Miss Qin have already gone out of the city, and their direction should be Madame Qin's maiden home Mangzhou."
"When I go back to my mother's house at this time, even if there is a carriage that hides people's ears, it will be easy to guess at that time."
Lu Nanfeng said softly, "Linzhou is next to Mangzhou, and there should be a fork in the middle. And on the road to Linzhou, there is still a fork in the road, which is to Zhaozhou."
"What the master means is that they may go to Linzhou or Zhaozhou."
Lu Nanfeng nodded, "Anyway, I won't go back to Mangzhou."
"Yes, my subordinates will order people to keep an eye on it."
Lu Nanfeng asked again, "How is Xuan Wu's injury?"
"Several brothers are healing him, and he is not out of danger yet."
The courtyard of the third prince is not so easy to leave.
So many Ouchi masters are protecting him by his side, where is Xuan Wu alone their opponent.
Xuan Wu suffered a big loss this time.
When he returned, he was left with a breath to hang.
Lu Nanfeng didn't ask Xuan Wu much, "At present, who has the emperor summoned to enter the palace?"
Xuanyi replied, "It's only Lord Qin. However, the third prince has been in the emperor's palace and has not gone out."
"It seems that the third prince has handed over all the evidence about the Qin family to the emperor. Leave the choice to the emperor to deal with, so that you can also win the emperor's trust. I guess he didn't look closely at the evidence!"
There are a lot of papers on those evidences, and the records on them are very detailed, and in this short period of time, it is impossible for the three princes to read them all.
Lu Nanfeng chuckled lightly, and then ordered: "Keep an eye on several city gates, and anyone who goes out or comes in must be reported in time." In addition, as long as the people of the Zhou family go out, they will be directly and secretly detained."
"Yes."
Xuanyi clenched his fists and left.
Lu Nanfeng opened another letter on the desk.
After he finished reading it, his eyes noticed that there was a somewhat different envelope pressed under the letter just now, and there was not a word written on the envelope.
