Chapter 454: The Unexpected
Sometimes the fate of this world is so wonderful that people can't describe it in words.
Of course, a misunderstanding can also be the beginning of a strange fate.
Qin Shaojie has a deep understanding of this.
Even in his later years, when he told his children and grandchildren about his glorious past, he often lamented his good fortune.
Originally, Li Yi thought that they had infiltrated the Jinling Mansion, and this matter was already very secretive.
But he didn't expect that when they sent people into the Jinling Mansion one by one, in a private house not far from them, several people saw all this clearly.
"I said that we should report this to the higher-ups?"
A man in the house spoke.
"What is there to report, the above stipulates that if someone sneaks away, we need to report it, they didn't ask someone to enter the Jinling Mansion, we need to report!"
The other person was sitting at the square table, eating the peanuts on the table, and said leisurely.
"But what if these people enter the mansion to do something to the Qin family?"
The third person also said with some concern.
"Wouldn't that be better, so that not only will the boss not blame us, but will even praise us privately!"
The man eating peanuts raised his eyebrows and said expectantly.
"You're crazy, aren't you? Don't forget that Her Royal Highness the princess's son is still in the Qin family! ”
The first person to speak immediately said with a shocked look on his face.
"You know a fart, although that kid is the son of Her Royal Highness the Princess, but in the eyes of Gongzi and Zheng Shuai, he is a thorn in the flesh."
The man who ate the peanuts shook his head and said in an unfathomable gesture.
"But even so, they may not dare to kill Qin Shaojie! After all, if Her Royal Highness the princess knew about this matter, she would inevitably have a dislike for Zheng Shuai. ”
The third person touched his chin and said.
"Li Lao Wu, you old bachelor knows a fart, you must know that a woman's mind is the most difficult thing to guess in this world."
"I'm a single, but you're not much better! Didn't you run away with someone else! ”
When the third person heard the other party say this, he couldn't help but murmur.
"Li Lao Wu, you dare to say what you just said again!"
The man who ate the peanuts immediately slapped the table and said angrily.
This matter is the most taboo for him.
"Okay, don't worry about Li Lao Wu, he doesn't have a brain if he wants to come, what do you have to worry about him!"
The first man dragged the peanut-eater back to the table.
"Although there is some truth in what Li said, I am just worried that once the people of the Qin family are really killed by others, although Her Royal Highness the Princess will not punish Zheng Shuai in any way, but we people are likely to become the targets of venting!"
The first person directly raised his biggest worries.
"Don't worry, if the Qin family is really killed, although we may be punished, Gongzi will definitely secretly give us a corresponding reward, and even we are likely to become his henchmen."
The man eating peanuts said with a wistful expression.
"This ······"
The other two were still a little apprehensive.
"If you think about the relationship between the prince and His Royal Highness the Prince, once the prince ascends the throne in the future, His Royal Highness the prince will inevitably soar to the sky and become a high-ranking and powerful person in the middle of the court."
The man who ate the peanuts became more and more excited, as if all this he had said was close at hand.
The other two were thrilled by the beauty he described.
So they hid the fact that Li Yi and others infiltrated the Jinling Mansion.
And in the government, Jingzi was very uneasy that his people could enter the Jinling Mansion so smoothly.
He always remembered what his master once said: When things go wrong, there must be demons.
This is clearly not the case today.
"Senior brother, I always feel that the situation is not right, even if the guards of this Jinling Mansion are lax, they will not react at all, right?"
Regarding Jing Zizheng's worries, Li Yi was also confused.
"I feel very wrong, too, so I'll go and see what's going on."
Li Yi said after observing the quiet surroundings for a while.
"Then I'll go with you, Childe."
When An Su heard that Li Yi was going to find out the news, he immediately proposed.
"Then I'll go with me."
Qi Chao also coaxed when he heard this.
He's always been interested in things that sound exciting.
"You treat me honestly, Li Yi is going to the big adventure news, not to fight with people."
Before Li Yi could speak, Qi Ning grabbed Qi Chao's collar and slipped him back.
In fact, this is not because Qi Ning does not care about Li Yi's safety.
In fact, on the contrary, she still knows her brother very well.
Originally, when he was in Sizhou County, he always looked like a very well-behaved person, but this is not because his personality is born like this.
In fact, his previous well-behaved was actually a manifestation of his compromise under the suppression of himself and his parents.
But later, in order to escape from marriage, she abducted Qi Chao out of the Qi family, which made him lose his nature and began to be completely exposed.
Then, after all the way north and the battle of the side fortress, Qi Chao's nature was also completely released, so he was like two people from the original Qi Dynasty.
Therefore, Qi Ning knew that once Qi Chao followed Li Yi and they went, it was likely that they would be discovered because of their reckless character.
This will likely lead to them being besieged by the officials of the Jinling Prefecture.
"Sister······
"You shut up for me, if you talk nonsense, I'll call my father and mother to educate you well."
Before Qi Chao's request could be spoken, he met Qi Ning's vicious gaze.
When Qi Chao heard this, he couldn't help but tremble with fright.
If there was anyone he was most afraid of in this world except Qi Ning, then his father was the person he was most afraid of.
Unlike other strict fathers, Qi's father is not a strict father in the strict sense, and compared to Qi Laoqi's father, he is still a relatively good talker.
But even this seemingly well-spoken Qi father has an ability that makes Qi Chao and Qi Ning very afraid.
This ability is endless nagging and preaching.
Others may just be able to recite a few words, but Father Qi is different, he can quote scriptures and nag all day without repetition.
For this kind of spiritual attack, the two sisters and brothers were terrified.
"Qi Chao, you just stay here, we are going to find out the news and need to be flexible."
An Su then said.
"Then I'll follow you too!"
The ghost doctor then followed suit.
"If something really happens, I can use medicine to knock them out."
As the ghost doctor spoke, he shook off his robe, and suddenly everyone found that his clothes were densely packed with different small pockets.
Obviously, there must be all kinds of drugs in these little pockets.
"Okay! Just the three of us. ”
Li Yi thought about it for a while, and agreed to go with the ghost doctor.
After all, he and the ghost doctor had also hid in the Jinling Mansion once before.
As for why he brought Ansu with him, Li Yi considered the birth of Ansu bandits in the past, so he should be more good at hiding and finding out news.
So the three of them quickly jumped out of this rarely visited house and sneaked in the direction of the backyard where the Qin family lived.
At this time, in a house in the backyard of Jinling Mansion, Qin Shaojie was rummaging through boxes and cabinets in the room.
"Young master, what are you looking for?"
One of Qin Shaojie's concubines looked at Qin Shaojie's busy back and asked tentatively.
At this point, she spoke very softly.
Because Princess Chengping brought people to the mansion before, they already knew about the dignitaries in the house.
At the same time, Qin Shaojie was beaten by Qin Shaodong, and their father-in-law Qin Lu was also humiliated by Zheng Yu, and they also saw it.
So they are now very worried that Qin Shaojie won't be able to think of doing something stupid for a while, or that the evil fire will have nowhere to vent and be cruel to them.
"What are you all still doing? Hurry up and find the gold and silver, and we must be ready to flee at any time. ”
Qin Shaojie turned his head and looked at his three concubines suspiciously.
When the third girl heard this, she immediately frowned.
"Young Master, are you alright?"
The three girls saw that Qin Shaojie was so calm, and they all began to worry.
"What can I do? Zheng Shaodong, that waste kicked me twice, this young master has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, in fact, he can compare. ”
Qin Shaojie patted his abdomen, although there was still a faint pain there, he still pretended to be casual.
Seeing Qin Shaojie's appearance, the third daughter was even more worried.
"Don't worry, young master, I haven't thought about it so much, a manly husband has a grudge, he must take revenge, he has a grudge, he has to take revenge, he has to complain, and the humiliation I have received today will be repaid a hundred times in the future."
Although Qin Shaojie said it very easily, the third girl still saw hatred in his eyes.
"Now that the Qin family has no servants and servants to protect us, if we escape now, I'm afraid we won't be able to go far, right?"
One of Qin Shaojie's concubines whispered.
"Xin'er, what do you mean by that?"
The eldest concubine immediately turned his head to stare at the concubine who had just spoken and asked.
"Eldest sister, I don't mean anything else, it's just that Jinling City is full of bandits who burn, kill, and loot, and I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to escape smoothly at this time."
The concubine known as Xin'er said with tears in her eyes and a pitiful posture.
And Qin Shaojie's heart couldn't help but soften when he saw this, and the anger in his heart was extinguished a lot at once.
"That's right, eldest sister, except for the young master, the Qin family, whether it is the eldest master or the master, how can we protect the young master when we all escape!"
Another concubine also said.
Qin Shaojie couldn't help but sigh secretly when he heard this.
But the eldest concubine said sharply.
"What do you two know, don't you know what kind of situation the Qin family is facing at this time? If we don't want to escape for our lives, then when Zheng Yu of the Yaowu Army frees up his hand to kill the door, none of us can escape. ”
Qin Shaojie couldn't help but be taken aback when he heard this.
He didn't expect that his concubine would have such a vision.
"At that time, young master, they may be killed by the other party, but we will inevitably be sent to the barracks by those people and humiliated by thousands of people, are you willing to accept such an ending?"
The eldest concubine said through gritted teeth.
Qin Shaojie looked at his angry concubine, and he couldn't help but feel even more sour in his heart.
Then he took the hand of his concubine and held it tightly.
"Don't worry, Mei'er, I won't let you get to that point no matter what, I will definitely do my best to escape with everyone."
After speaking, he hugged his concubine tightly into his arms.
The concubine, known as Mei'er, immediately trembled all over, and then her emotions could no longer be held back.
Her tears rang to her back.
The other two concubines looked at Qin Shaojie in a daze, not knowing what to say.
At this moment, Li Yi and the three of them happened to walk to this house.
Along the way, they found that many of the houses in the government were unoccupied, which made them even more confused.
It just so happened that this room was the place where they had been hiding before, so Li Yi deliberately paid attention to it.
So he happened to see the shadow of Qin Shaojie hugging his concubine in the house.
"Yo! Is this house going to be staged in the Spring Palace? ”
Ansu saw the figures on the window hugging each other, and he couldn't help but laugh and said.
"What is the Living Spring Palace?"
Li Yi hadn't heard the word Living Spring Palace before, so he asked curiously.
Faced with Li Yi's question, An Su suddenly fell into embarrassment.
Even the ghost doctor on the side was flushed and didn't know how to explain it.
Just when the three of them were in embarrassment, suddenly a voice came from not far behind them.
"What are you doing standing outside?"
When Li Yi heard this, it turned out to be a woman's voice.
But just when he didn't know how to answer, the woman obviously saw that the figures of the three people did not match what she imagined, and she immediately stopped.
Then she stepped back briskly, and she feigned composure.
"Shaojie, the weather is cold, you go back to your room early to rest, sister, I'll go back too."
With that, she quickly turned around and walked briskly towards the outside of the courtyard.
Li Yi could see from the woman's hurried figure that the other party recognized him and was not the person she was looking for.
It's just that this woman is very smart, and she is afraid that if she reveals her identity, she will kill her.
That's why she pretended not to find out the identity of the others in order to delay time and then run away quickly.
Now that Li Yi had seen the other party's intentions, how could he let this woman escape.
So Li Yi rushed forward with a brisk step.
The woman was also alert, and when she heard footsteps behind her, she immediately lifted the hem of her skirt and ran quickly.
At the same time, he shouted loudly.
"Someone! There are ······"
As soon as Li Yi heard the other party shouting, he couldn't help but speed up his pace again.
In an instant, he grabbed the woman's arm and covered her mouth.
"Woooooo
The moment Qin Shaoyan was caught by Li Yi, her heart sank to the bottom of the valley at once.
Although she guessed that the other party should not kill her, she was not sure.
Even if Zheng Yu said before that he would come to help Zheng Shaodong propose marriage in a few days, but that was just what he said.
She wasn't sure if Zheng Yu would change her mind on the spot.
And after Li Yi covered Qin Shaoyan's mouth, he immediately wrapped her waist around her, and then ran quickly towards the pillar next to the eaves.
In Qin Shaoyan's horror, she felt the scene in front of her shake rapidly, and then she found that she and the assassin had gone up to the roof.
At the same time, two other figures appeared on the roof.
"The ghost doctor told her not to speak!"
Li Yi then commanded.
Hearing this, the ghost doctor immediately nodded, then quickly took out a small pinch of medicinal powder from his sleeve, then broke Qin Shaoyan's mouth and stuffed it in.
Suddenly, Qin Shaoyan felt bitter and numb in her mouth, and then she was horrified to find that she couldn't speak.
And An Su also tied Qin Shaoyan's hands and feet under Li Yi's instructions.
