Section 472 Waiting for the King's Return at Dusk (1)
I don't know how long I sat at the table, Ling'er got up and lit the oil lamp.
A soft light illuminated the room at once.
Ling'er walked to the window again, pushed open the window that had been closed all the year round, and unexpectedly saw the curved crescent moon hanging in the air, and from time to time there were clouds slowly drifting by.
A gust of night wind blew, and Ling'er couldn't help but shiver. Only then did she remember that winter had crept in.
Thinking of Qi Yang's thin envoy suit, Ling'er was inevitably a little worried. It's already so cold in the capital, let alone in the mountains?
Ling'er closed the window and walked to the wardrobe, wanting to see if Qi Yang had prepared clothes for winter.
But when Ling'er opened the cabinet door, she noticed something unusual.
Ling'er hurriedly turned around to get the oil lamp, and reconfirmed the light of the oil lamp.
It turned out that in Qi Yang's closet, there was something like a doorknob.
Ling'er curiously tried to push it, but the wooden board didn't move. Ling'er couldn't help laughing, what was she thinking? Do you think there is a treasure hidden in Brother Qi Yang's closet?
When Ling'er turned around and wanted to put the oil lamp back, she suddenly thought of something, turned around again and grabbed the doorknob-like thing and pulled it to the right.
Ling'er was startled, so she used more force to continue pulling.
The wooden board behind the wardrobe was removed by Ling'er like this.
A gust of wind poured in through the hole in front of him, almost blowing out the oil lamp in Ling'er's hand.
Ling'er hurriedly protected the oil lamp with her hand, and took a closer look at the hollow with the light of the oil lamp, and was startled!
It turned out that what was hidden behind Qi Yang's wardrobe was not a dark compartment, but a large room!
It is not like a secret room, because that room has doors and windows, and the wind blows in through the windows on that side.
Ling'er moved the robe in the wardrobe to the side a little and stepped over.
The layout and size of this room are similar to Qi Yang's house, and there is nothing special about it, but it is covered with a veil of mystery because of the secret door.
Ling'er put the oil lamp on the table and looked around, looking for something special. But these furnishings follow the simple and simple style of Yixingmen, and there is nothing peculiar.
Ling'er noticed an incense burner by the window, so she approached to take a look. She thought that the incense burner was empty, but she didn't expect that there were some residual spices in it, and it was not a "hidden incense".
The fragrance in the incense burner had been blown so faintly by the wind that it could not be smelled, so Ling'er had to get closer to smell it.
It's agarwood!
Ling'er's thoughts gradually drifted away, returning to the time when she first saw the Yixing envoy in Zezhou, and the breath on the body of the Yixing envoy was agarwood.
Ling'er suddenly thought of something, hurriedly pushed open the door and ran out.
She stood in the courtyard and suddenly looked back, and the word "envoy" was clearly visible in the faint moonlight.
"So this is the Messenger's Courtyard!" Ling'er muttered to herself.
Ling'er slowly walked back into the house and closed the door. She had recovered from the shock of the right talent.
Chunxiao Courtyard was originally next to the Messenger's Courtyard, and Qi Yang's house happened to be on the very edge, so naturally there was only one wall between it and the Messenger's house. Ling'er felt that she was getting more and more stupid, why did she find out at this time?
After all, this is the messenger's house, a mysterious place, Ling'er felt that it was not appropriate to stay for a long time, so she returned to Qiyang's house with an oil lamp.
The moment the secret door was closed, Ling'er remembered another thing.
A few days ago, Xu Jun suddenly arrived and forcibly broke into Brother Qi Yang's house to confirm Brother Qi Yang's identity. At that time, Brother Qi Yang had just finished changing the wound medicine, and the wound was very painful, so he let himself go out to resist for a while. But when Xu Jun broke in, there was no trace of Brother Qi Yang.
Why did Qi Yang, who was originally in the house, suddenly disappear, and then walked in from outside? These puzzles that seemed unsolvable at the time were also solved at this time, and it was because of the existence of this secret door.

Mrs. Piaopiao stared at Xu Jun coldly.
Xu Jun lowered his head, and his heart was furious when he was stared at. He thought angrily: "It was you who framed Qi Yang as a fine work and provoked his relationship with Ling'er. Later, I finally caught Ling'er's girl, and I was messed up by your inadequate plan. Can you blame me for running away? Now that girl has hid in Yixing Gate, she can't blame me!"
After a long time, Mrs. Piao Piao spoke: "That's it, maybe Gan Ling'er's life should not be extinguished, so let her go first! As for that Qi Yang ......"
Xu Jun secretly raised his eyes and glanced at Mrs. Piaopiao, waiting for her to continue.
"That Qi Yang is cunning, and Madame Ben no longer expects you to catch him. Mrs. Piao Piao said, shaking her head in disappointment and helplessness.
Xu Jun didn't dare to relax his vigilance, and looked at Mrs. Piaopiao cautiously.
"Jun'er, are you afraid of me?" Mrs. Piaopiao walked up to Xu Jun with a smile and said, "Silly boy, even if you don't use it anymore, I won't hurt you!"
Xu Jun scoffed at this in his heart.
"As soon as Ji Cangyu comes back, you will go to Miaofeng Villa, and our long-prepared plan will be launched, just thinking about it will make people's blood boil!" said Mrs. Piaopiao, with a look of anticipation.
Xu Jun frowned, and finally understood the purpose of Mrs. Piaopiao's call this time. She was trying to put pressure on herself.
Sure enough, I heard Mrs. Piaopiao continue: "And whether that plan can succeed or not depends on you alone in the final analysis." You should know how much effort Ben has put into this plan! If it fails......
"My subordinates will definitely go all out!" Xu Jun hurriedly expressed his determination.
"Very well! This plan must only succeed, not fail!" said Lady Piao.

On the third day of Qi Yang's departure, when Ling'er was worried about whether Qi Yang and their action would be successful, Qi Dian sent her the news from the front. This is the news reported to the door master after the other branch door members who returned to their own branch altar after escorting Elder Yu over the mountain above the mountain.
Ling'er learned that Elder Yu had successfully passed the suspension bridge on the mountain above, and had not added any new injuries, and now he had continued to ascend the Xiayun Ridge. But other than that, she didn't know anything. She didn't know if Qi Yang was injured or when they would be able to return to the capital.
Ling'er's anxious wait continued until the end of the fourth day.
Just after the hour, Ling'er, who was waiting in the hall, heard the neighing of the horses and immediately rushed out.
Sure enough, in the flying dust, Ling'er saw several people led by Ji Cangyu dismounting one after another, and they were taking their bags from the horse's back.
They all came back on horseback, so Brother Qi Yang shouldn't have been injured again? Ling'er was overjoyed, and ran towards them with her long skirt. She hadn't seen Brother Qi Yang for many days, and this time she was finally able to see him!
But just when the dust settled, Ling'er was surprised to find that there were eight people in the group, but only five of them came back!
Could it be that something happened to Brother Qi Yang? Ling'er was shocked in her heart.
