Volume 1: Jun Zuo Shou Songhe [Chapter 13] Siege
The cell door was opened, Qin E ran in with her skirt, knelt beside Qin Shenghan, stretched out her hand to support him and asked with concern: "Father!" You okay! ”
Qin Shenghan looked at her in confusion, then looked at the guards lined up in the corridor, as if he understood something, covered his aching neck, waved his hand at Qin E and said, "It's okay to be a father." Hurry up and help Lord Qi. ”
Qin E was not at ease, stroked his violently undulating back, and said in a low voice: "My daughter is here to accompany her father, right?" ”
Qin Shenghan pushed her out and said, "Go ahead." Being a father is not so fragile. ”
After saying this, Qin E made up her mind not to linger any longer, got up and walked towards the outside of the prison.
At this moment, the assassin who was going to kill Qin Shenghan in prison resisted and fought all the way, and actually broke through the formation of the soldiers of the Criminal Department alone and came to the second gate at the southern end of the official residence.
Qi Yue arrived with a sword, and a neat Xuanmo robe floated lightly in front of the array, shouting in his mouth: "Grab it!" You can't escape today! ”
The assassin, who was surrounded by groups, covered his face with a black scarf, leaving only a pair of cold eyes outside, staring at Lang Jun in front of everyone, deliberately suppressing his voice, ruining the original tone, and mocking: "Is it life or death!" It's not up to you to decide! ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he spun around and threw countless darts from his dark sleeves, striking the soldiers backwards.
said that it was too late, Qi Yueyong stepped forward and stabbed with his sword, and was entangled with the man in one place. Qin E chased after him, and when he saw the dangerous scene in front of him, he ordered the crossbowmen of the Yazhong guards to be transferred and fired a hundred arrows at the assassins.
Qi Yue caught a glimpse of it, and with Qin E's order, he stepped out of the way at the right time, causing the assassin to be trapped in the arrow array.
Countless sharp arrows were fired at the man, and it was a dangerous situation, but there was no fear in the assassin's cold and gloomy eyes, and his body was ghostly, so that people could not see the tricks clearly.
Seeing this, Qi Yue knew that the arrow array could not trap him, so he jumped forward again, unwilling to leave half a margin for this person.
Qin E also took advantage of the situation to order someone to stop the arrow, but the assassin's martial arts can be said to be at the peak, and Qi Yue is not his opponent at all.
The government guards stepped forward together, intending to forcibly detain this person. Unexpectedly, the assassin shrank and hid, taking advantage of the panic of everyone, he jumped towards the wall of the second gate, and disappeared in the dark night in a blink of an eye.
He fled. Under the joint arrest of dozens of people from the Criminal Department, he escaped.
The fierceness of his martial arts made Qin E dumbfounded and indescribable. Qi Yue landed and stood firmly, his long sword back sheathed and stood with his hands in his hands, looking at the direction where the assassin had fled, and condensed his deep eyes: "Who is this person sacred?" ”
Qin E trotted over, saw that his face was covered with blood, and asked eagerly, "You're not injured, are you?" ”
Qi Yue shook his head, patted her shoulder lightly and said, "I'm fine, this blood belongs to the assassin, he was hit by two arrows in the shoulder." ”
The official on the side bowed forward: "My lord... Aren't we chasing? ”
Qi Yue frowned and said, "Don't chase anymore." This person's martial arts are really strong, and he also has deep attainments in light skills, even if we catch up, there may not be results. Send people to notify the forbidden army and patrol battalions, block the capital, and search from house to house. ”
Qin E's face turned pale and her expression was lost: "After plotting for a few days, I was defeated by force. If you can't find this person... What a vain strategy for the princess. ”
Qi Yue turned his head to look at her, and said softly: "The mastermind behind this scene is already cunning. Now it seems that to have such a master to listen to the dispatch, the power must be not small, and it can be regarded as a scope for us. ”
Freezing dew in the middle of the night.
Xiao Yuehuai waited anxiously in the wing, listening to the sound of fighting in the official office, and couldn't help but push open the door to see the situation. She sneaked up to the scene of the round-up and saw the Assassin in a nightsuit through the gaps between the people.
This person's figure was extremely familiar to her, and the moment the assassin looked back, her Heavenly Spirit Gai suddenly went numb, and her heart suddenly jumped: It's Lu Pingsheng! He actually came in person?!
A suffocating sense of oppression pressed towards her, and Xiao Yuehuai fled back to the wing room from the grass in embarrassment.
Those eyes, that figure, even if they turned to ashes, she couldn't forget them. At this time, just like when she was crazy in her previous life when she wanted to escape from Lu Pingsheng's control, fear and despair once again overflowed in her heart.
She imagined countless times the scene of meeting him in this life, encouraging herself to be brave and never be a lamb to the slaughter again. But when I saw him, there was only endless pain and sorrow.
Every moment of Lu Pingsheng's presence was a nightmare for her.
After a while, the movement in the mansion subsided, and Qin E returned in a huff.
Xiao Yuehuai saw her at the door, and rushed over a little frantically and asked, "How is it?" Did you catch him? ”
Qin E shook her head with a frustrated face: "Let him run away." ”
Xiao Yuehuai was taken aback: "How could it be!" ”
Qin E said truthfully: "That assassin has supreme martial arts, and there is no one in the official residence who is his opponent. ”
Xiao Yuehuai suddenly felt that his eyes were dark, and his annoyance swelled up, and he said with extreme resentment: "I've been preparing for so long!" I thought it was foolproof! He was still allowed to escape. ”
Qin E didn't know why she was suddenly so excited, so she could only endure the unwillingness in her heart, and reluctantly comforted: "Ah Huai." He was wounded, Qi Yue has already sent someone to notify the forbidden army and the patrol battalion to search the whole city, and we have not yet reached a dead end. ”
Xiao Yuehuai was so angry that she fell to the ground with a bang, and her eyes lost their lustre.
Qin E looked at her a little overwhelmed, not understanding how her reaction was even more powerful than herself.
Xiao Yuehuai sat on the cold brick floor for a long time before gradually regaining her senses-
She knew that using Qin Shenghan as bait would definitely attract the killers of the Lu family.
The Lu family and his son want to harm the Qin family, and now they can't frame the Qin family for the crime of corruption, so they will inevitably use the silver theft case as an entry point. The news of the bandits' confession is the best chance for the Lu family to bite the case.
In order to die without proof, they will definitely kill Qin Shenghan and forge a false impression of suicide in fear of crime.
But she didn't expect... The person who came this time was actually Lu Pingsheng!
Xiao Yuehuai felt strange, Lu Pingsheng was the most cautious, he would never be reckless and impulsive, and he would not do this kind of thing personally. He's always been thoughtful and close-knit, so why is there such a mess this time?
Xiao Yuehuai couldn't figure it out, and her mood became worse and worse.
Seeing that she had been stunned and didn't speak, Qin E couldn't help but worry: "Ah Huai? Are you okay? ”
Xiao Yuehuai came back to her senses, glanced at her deeply, gradually soothed the disgust in her eyes, and said in a calm tone: "It's okay." Come, you go and accompany Qi Yue, tonight's search of the whole city is another tiring battle. ”
Qin E was silent, always feeling that the girl in front of her was a little grotesque, but she couldn't say what was wrong.
Xiao Yuehuai ignored her scrutiny, and refused to come out in her own thoughts: she was going to meet Lu Pingsheng in person. This plan is invalid, and we must find another way to clear Qin Shenghan's suspicion and return the Qin family to peace.
The rest of the night was broken, and the bleak wind blew through the walls. The lonely clouds cover the moon, and the city is lonely.
A dark shadow crossed the long street, circled the side road, and stumbled towards the Lu Mansion located in the waterfront alley. He entered through the back door, climbed over a low wall, and fell on a flower bed, covered in mud.
He stiffened his body and walked towards the low pavilion standing on the lake not far away.
At the end of the bridge, a maidservant girl was guarding the entrance, covering her mouth and yawning. In the quiet night, I suddenly heard a few slight calls: "Jinyi, Jinyi..."
