Chapter 173: Not Seeing His Wife on the Day of Marriage (3)
The two of them glanced at each other, and both smiled happily.
"Sister Xia, what plan did you have in mind?
Xia Ziyan smiled mysteriously, and then whispered in Jin Mengyao's ear.
"What, you want to bring this unknown woman into the Tianquan Mansion?" Qi Qiubai frowned, revealing a look of displeasure.
"Qi Bo, I didn't even bring a maid with me when I came out this time, can't I be left alone for anything in the future?"
"You don't have to worry about this, the wealth of the Tianquan Mansion is very powerful, and some people are waiting for you!"
"I'm not rare! Although there were many maids in the Heavenly Mansion, none of them were trustworthy to me. I used to have Xinmeng by my side, but now, you have forcibly pulled me to take my place, so that Miss Ben doesn't even have a person to talk to. I don't care anyway...... I'm going to take her with me!"
Qi Qiubai shook his head and sighed, "Okay, okay! ”
"Haha...... Thank you Ziber!"
Jin Mengyao achieved her goal as she wished, but not long after she left, Qi Qiubai's door was knocked again.
"I'll send you out to inquire about the woman, is there anything suspicious?"
The two men looked at each other and said, "Back to Qibo, we have inquired about the place where the woman sold herself, and we have not found anything suspicious about this woman. ”
Another man hurriedly chimed in: "Yes, yes, and they have lived on the streets for decades, and there is only one old father in the family, who has been suffering from illness for many years." He just passed away two days ago, leaving only the two brothers and sisters. ”
Qi Qiubai nodded, and said after a while: "Okay, you guys retreat!"
The two men turned and closed the door, then ran quickly downstairs and hid in the corner of the alley, one of them glanced around, and then pulled a gold ingot from his clothes.
"Brother, how can this be divided?"
"Stupid! went to change the silver, and we both had half of each!"
"Haha...... Brother makes sense!"
"Let's go!"
The next day, early in the morning!
The temple fair in Qianxi County has ended, but there are still many vendors who have not left. However, there are very few pedestrians on the streets. Because today is a big day for the residents of the county, even grander than the temple fair in the past three days.
Tianquan Mansion, located in the westernmost part of Qianxi County, is backed by mountains, and there is a crystal clear Qianxi River flowing in front of the house. Surrounded by willow trees along the river, it is winter, but you can imagine the lush green scene in spring.
"Hurry up, hurry up, hang that lantern straight!"
An old man who looked like a butler was directing a group of subordinates to work, and the streets were cleaned, and even the two huge stone lions beside the door were wrapped in a bright red silk.
The other side of the Qianxi River was already crowded with people who had come to see the excitement, and some of them had even climbed into the trees.
Compared with Tianquan Mansion, the Qianxi Inn at this time was even more lively, with more than a dozen men looking like family members maintaining order in front of the door, not to queue up for dinner, but to catch a glimpse of the bride's demeanor.
Xia Ziyan stood in front of the window and looked at the noisy crowd downstairs, she closed the window, turned around and looked at Jin Mengyao who was fighting, and asked, "I didn't expect that your husband is quite capable, there are dozens of people downstairs to maintain order!"
"Ahh
"Poof!" Xia Ziyan couldn't help laughing and said, "However, if you can escape, it can be regarded as indirectly saving your husband's life......!"
"Hey, if you don't make fun of me, are you going to die?"
"Where did I make fun of you? I'm telling the truth!"
"Hmph, you don't care if people die or live, let's think about how to get out tonight!"
Xia Ziyan immediately put away her smile, everything was in her plan now, but there was one thing she didn't expect, that is, there were too many people watching the excitement on the street.
The deafening sound of firecrackers resounded throughout Qianxi County, and Jin Mengyao, dressed in red, slowly walked into a sedan chair.
With the deafening sound of gongs and drums and the lively coaxing around him, the sedan chair slowly walked towards the Tianquan Mansion.
Outside Qianxi City, Shen Linfeng and Zhao Ting were leisurely drinking hot tea in front of a tea stall. After a while, the sound of horses' hooves approaching in the distance.
After a neighing, dozens of fast horses stopped in front of the tea stall, Sun Dahai took the lead in jumping off the horse and walked to Shen Linfeng's side, and said: "Everyone is here! Liu Blind said that these are all good horseback riders, and there is absolutely no problem!"
Shen Linfeng nodded with satisfaction, then grabbed two cloth bags from his seat and threw them to Sun Dahai, saying, "Let them change these clothes tonight." ”
Sun Dahai grinned: "No problem!"
Night, time!
Every inn in Qianxi County was full, just because the master of Tianquan Mansion had spoken. Before dawn, all the people in the city who went to the inn to eat and drink were recorded in the account of his Tianquan Mansion, and even the people who did not go to the inn were given a few catties of wine and meat at home.
The lanterns in the Tianquan Mansion are hung high, a festive scene.
Jin Mengyao pretended to deal with it outside for a long time, and as soon as she entered the house, she ripped off her hijab.
Xia Ziyan smiled and said, "Don't say it, your husband is really handsome!"
Jin Mengyao didn't pay attention to Xia Ziyan's ridicule of her, she hurriedly took off the clothes on her body, and then quickly changed into a set of night clothes.
"Hey, can you stop delaying, if he comes back, none of us will be able to leave!"
Xia Ziyan nodded, then picked up the clothes that Jin Mengyao had taken off and put them on her body seriously.
"Who?"
A guard saw a red shadow flashing in front of him, he hurriedly pulled out the scimitar in his hand, but the red shadow disappeared with only a slight flick in front of his eyes, but at this moment, the guard had also seen the woman's dress.
"Oh no, the bride ran away!"
This shout was like a thunderstorm on the ground, instantly making the entire Tianquan Mansion chaotic, and the first to react was Qi Qiubai, for some reason he always felt that this was expected, because Jin Mengyao's performance was very calm all day long, and it was precisely this calmness that made him feel so uneasy in his heart.
Qi Qiubai rushed to the courtyard and grabbed the guards who kept shouting.
"In which direction did she run?"
"East! ...... East"
Qi Qiubai didn't wait for him to finish speaking, and then led his men to chase eastward.
At the same time, the horses in the Tianquan Mansion neighed, and dozens of guards on fast horses quickly rushed out of the mansion with torches in their hands.
