Begonia galloped home.

The weather is not very good today, and the atmosphere in the city is a little tense, and there are not many pedestrians on the road. She galloped all the way through without worrying about bumping into someone. It's just that the four Zhou family soldiers who followed behind were a little surprised, her riding skills were so skillful, and she was a little behind. But the other courtyard was not far from the Hai family, and it was not far from Yuan, and after a while, they arrived.

Haitang saw from a distance that the front of her house was calm as usual, and the passers-by did not show anything unusual, but the carriage parked in front of the door was a little familiar, at first glance, it looked a little similar to the one she had hurriedly glimpsed outside the gate of the courtyard just now, and it seemed to be the car that Mrs. Thursday had taken when she took Zhou Xuejun out in the past. There was a man sitting in front of the carriage, who happened to be one of the accomplices of the middle-aged man in blue, who was now holding the reins and observing the movements around him, he should be on guard. Hearing the sound of horses' hooves galloping towards him, he immediately turned his head to look back.

Begonia did not slow down the horse, and rushed directly from the side of the carriage. Although the sentry man showed a vigilant look on his face, he was just outside the gate of the courtyard, and he had never seen what the begonias inside the door looked like or what clothes they were wearing, so he didn't recognize anyone at this time. Before he could look back to see what was going on, his neck was already tight, and his whole body was pulled up by a strong force and fell heavily to the ground.

His eyes were so big that his throat clicked, but he couldn't say a word, and could only desperately hold the whip around his neck with both hands.

Begonia controlled the reins and stopped the horse, and when he looked back to see that the sentry had been strangled out of his breath and had lost his breath, he jumped off the horse, and with a slight pull of his hand, he took back the horsewhip. The man had just been strangled half to death, just got rid of the horsewhip, lay on the ground and gasped, and the whole person was still dizzy, and he had already fallen into the hands of the Zhou family's personal soldiers who arrived later.

Passers-by were originally startled by the Begonia Strain people, but when they saw the Zhou family's personal soldiers arrive, they seemed to be in a group with Begonia, so they immediately calmed down. Some people quickly left the scene pretending not to see anything, and some people stepped forward to ask the Zhou family's soldiers if they could help.

Haitang did not participate in their conversation, after she took back the whip, she immediately glanced into the carriage, saw that there was no one inside, and guessed that Wu Qiong was probably taken away by the middle-aged man in blue.

Where did they go? Did you go to the sea house?

Begonia turned her head to look at the door of her house, and she didn't see anything unusual, and there was no unusual sound in the house. If it weren't for the carriage parked in front of the door and the sentry on it, she would have thought that the middle-aged man in blue and his accomplices had fled here with Wu Qiong, so she abandoned the car and fled.

But since they left the car and people, they must have gone to a nearby place temporarily, and they will come back after the fact, and they brought Wu Qiong to threaten people with her as a hostage!

Wu Qiong is just a little girl who has just arrived in Chang'an, in addition to her relatives Zhou family, who else can the minions of the Sun family threaten her? Since it is at the door of the Hai family, needless to say, they must be looking for their cousin Xie Wenzai, the old son of the Wu family!

Haitang remembered what Zhou Xuejun said that Mrs. Gui told the minions of the Sun family, so she guessed that the latter must have threatened Xie Wenzai to hand over Jin Jiashu in order to save Wu Qiong.

Haitang sneered, thinking to herself how many minions of the Sun family there were? Even if they have Wu Qiong as a hostage, the Hai family's house is not big, but if they dare to enter the door, do they dare to guarantee that they can come out with the hostages unharmed?

The Hai family is not without force. They are not afraid that they will become turtles in the urn!

It's just that although Haitang has confidence in his second uncle and brother, as well as the two guards left by the Zhou family, he doesn't dare to guarantee that no one in the family will be harmed. I don't know how the middle-aged man in blue entered the door, why does the Hai family look the same outside? It would be easy for her to knock on the door and go home, for fear that there would be an enemy guarding the door, and anyone who entered the door would be stabbed, and even if she could dodge, it would be useless for the current situation.

While thinking about it, the Zhou family's personal soldiers had finished interrogating the sentry and came over to inform her of the latest situation: "Their leader is called 'Cai Ye', and he came to visit Mr. Xie in the name of the Wu family's daughter, and he planned to salute first and then soldier." However, they sent a few other people to get a long ladder from the house next door, intending to climb to the top of the wall and go directly into the back house to find someone. ”

Haitang was taken aback, and immediately thought that the neighbors Chen Qianhu and his wife had settled down in Shanxi, and only two days ago they sent someone to deliver a letter home and let their children come over. The Chen family had already agreed with the Hai family that they would vacate the first two entrances of the house and rent them to Xie Wenzai, so they would push some furniture and sundries into the back two courtyards. As for the old things that are not used, the housekeepers will temporarily pile them up in the alley between the two families, wait for them to be transported out of the city and discarded, including the old long ladder used by Chen Qianhu's family when they were guarding the border city. The ladder was originally used to allow the men in the family to climb the wall to participate in killing the enemy when the enemy army entered the city, and the length was long enough for people to climb to the wall of the Hai family. Because of the safety risk, Hai Changan complained to Uncle Cui last night, and planned to tell the Chen family today that he would cut off the long ladder.

Could it be that Hai Chang'an didn't have time to cut the ladder, so he was first exploited by the minions of the Sun family? !

Begonia quickly went around to the base of the west wall of his house, and before he entered the alley, he had caught a glimpse of a figure flashing in the alley. Alert, she sprang off the ground with her feet, and with a flash of silver light, a dagger stabbed out of the alley, slashing past her shoulder.

She grabbed the wrist holding the knife with her backhand and pinched it the hole. The opponent's hand was numb, and the dagger had not yet landed, and he had already raised his leg and kicked it hard. Haitang avoided his legs, and pushed the person to the ground on the road with force, the man was unable to control the castration with one leg in the air, and almost fell into the mud, and finally stopped his body, and was about to turn around to fight back, but he was already held by two Zhou family soldiers with knives on his neck, and he didn't dare to move.

Haitang ran to the root of the wall, and the old long ladder of the Chen family was really erected and put on the wall of the Hai family, which was almost the west side of the small building in the front yard. According to what she observed upstairs in the front yard when she first returned to Chang'an, people who climbed up the wall from here and were more nimble with their hands and feet should be able to jump to the west windowsill on the second floor with a little effort, and then step on the roof of the rooms of several old men in the Westinghouse and jump into the courtyard.

But if people want to take this route to enter the inner house of the Hai family, they have to climb the courtyard wall of the second courtyard, whether it is jumping from the courtyard wall into the second courtyard, or jumping into the roof of two small regressions, it does not take much effort. It's just that the person who does this will definitely not be able to escape the eyes of the two Zhou family guards.

There was still no big movement in the Hai family's house, but Haitang did not dare to ignore it. At this time, no one was on the wall, but there were newly stepped boot prints on the long ladder, which showed that someone had climbed over the wall and entered. I don't know how many people went in, whether they brought weapons, and where they went at this time.

She turned her head and said to the soldiers of the Zhou family: "I will climb the ladder to go up, and then you will immediately move the ladder away, cutting off the back road of the gangsters, lest they escape over the wall!" ”

After that, she tightened the knife on her waist, wrapped the horsewhip in her left hand, and stepped directly on the ladder, quickly climbed onto the wall of her house, and the movement was so fast that the Zhou family's soldiers were stunned, and they didn't have time to stop it at all.

Thinking that there were still minions of the Sun family in the house, they didn't dare to speak loudly, only to see Begonia jumping lightly on the wall, and then disappeared, and then they didn't hear any sound of falling or stepping on the roof tiles, guessing that she had probably landed safely, so they moved the long ladder and put it on the ground.

They then turned around and ran out of the alley, meeting up with the rescuers who had arrived after hearing the news, and prepared to go into the sea house to arrest people.
