Chapter 7311
Tai'an City.

In the alley, Wei Linqi happily carried the box and walked inside.

But not long after he walked in, an old woman ran towards him on the opposite side.

While running, his face was pale and ugly.

"Third Young Master, it's not good, Run Niang was taken away."

The woman was the rough envoy of the Xing family for many years, she was very good at taking care of others, so she hid here with her this time to take care of the two of them.

Wei Linqi didn't have much blood on his face at first, but when he was frightened by the woman's words, his face turned pale, he couldn't hold the box with his fingers, and the box slipped from his hand, and fell to the ground, splashing the soup all over the floor.

"Who took Runniang away?"

Wei Linqi said with a glimmer of hope.

He was very afraid that Runniang would be taken away by the Wei family. If so, he would have no chance or possibility of rescue.That would be utter despair.

His glimmer of hope was that Runniang might not have been taken by the Wei family.

"It's a person from a pawnshop that recruits money..." the woman panicked.

Not the Wei family!
Wei Linqi breathed a sigh of relief, but turned his head and raised his heart again.

This money-making pawn shop is not easy to mess with.

Isn't it because the money owed to them is overdue?As for coming to arrest people?

What Wei Linqi is worried about is that the Zhaocai Pawnshop will find out his real identity through Run Niang and sell him to the Wei family.

However, he has nothing now, and he has nothing to rely on... Is he going to look for the Lin family again?

It is true that the Lin family protected him when he fled from the Wei family.

But the Lin family is definitely not out of kindness!

As one of the few big families in Tai'an City, the Lin family is by no means a vegetarian little white rabbit. On the contrary, like the Wei family, they are all cannibalistic wolves.

What is their plan to help him escape from the Wei family's pursuit, doesn't he understand?
He would never go to the Lin family unless it was absolutely necessary!

But now, Runniang was accidentally arrested, what should I do?
Wei Linqi's eyes flickered, his thoughts turned endlessly, and for a while, he didn't know how to sort out his thoughts, until he heard a cry from a distance.

"Officer!"

The familiar voice made him subconsciously turn his head to look.

When he saw Run Niang in coarse clothes rushing towards him from not far away, he froze for a moment, almost suspecting that he was hallucinating.

He didn't react until Runniang threw herself into his arms and felt the familiar body temperature.

"Runniang, it's really you, did the Lucky Pawn Shop let you out?"

"How could they be so kind...the benefactor paid to redeem the concubine." Run Niang raised her face, with tears in her eyes.

"Benefactor? What benefactor?" Wei Linqi was very vigilant.

Who would redeem Runniang for no reason?Could it be the Lin family?
The first thing he could think of was the Lin family.

But getting the "favor" from the Lin family is not a good thing, the Lin family will make him pay it back thousands of times.

"Benefactor, it's right behind." Run Niang turned her head and pointed to the back.

Sure enough, three people turned out from the side and rear.

Two of the women were wearing cloaks and veils, so they couldn't see their faces clearly, while the other handsome young man, Shengxue in white, was known by Wei Linqi.

"What? Don't you recognize us?" Luo Xingchen smiled slightly.

"My lord, thank you for saving your life."

Wei Linqi took a step forward and bowed deeply.

Although he still had a sense of vigilance in his heart, this life-saving kindness was solid.

Luo Xingchen stretched out his hand to support Wei Linqi and said, "You don't need to be polite, let's go back and talk, there are many people outside here."

"Yes, son."

Wei Linqi stood up straight, and led Luo Xingchen, Ziyan, and Bisnake into the alley.

The old lady was overjoyed when she saw the eldest lady returned safely, and she had already been sent by Wei Linqi to go a few steps to prepare tea.

After knowing Wei Linqi's identity, Luo Xingchen suddenly realized that the patched clothes he was wearing were deliberately disguised, and it was not that he didn't have expensive clothes.

After following Wei Linqi into the alley, he turned around and finally came to the gate of a courtyard.

It's very hidden here, no wonder Wei Linqi hides here.

Walking in through the wooden door, there is a small courtyard inside, with a lobby in the middle, a kitchen, side rooms, etc. on the left and right, which can be regarded as complete.

"The family is poor and there is nothing to entertain a few distinguished guests. Only this tea from the mountains brought from my hometown can be tasted."

Wei Linqi entered the room, asked Luo Xingchen, Ziyan, and Bisnake to sit down, and pointed to the tea channel that the old lady had made in advance.

"It's pretty good. It seems that it's a good tea in Tai'an City." Luo Xingchen tasted this kind of tea for the first time, but he could tell that this tea should be a famous local specialty.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Wei Linqi introduced himself: "My surname is Wei, and my name is Lin Qi. I don't know you, but who are the other two fairies?"

"I won't hide it from you, we are members of the imperial court."

Luo Xingchen took out a pass, which contained his relevant information and was certified by the imperial court.

"So it's the admiral!" Wei Linqi was in awe.

Luo Xingchen, the admiral of the navy, and the eldest son of the loyal and brave general Luo Fengtang, these two identities, no matter which one is taken out, it is very important.

"My two elder sisters, Sister Ziyan and Sister Bisnake, they are both hidden guards of the imperial court." Luo Xingchen said again.

In order to prove their identities, Zi Yan and Bi Snake also took out their hidden guard identity tokens.

Wei Linqi is a person who has studied and has the status of a scholar, so he is naturally very knowledgeable. He can roughly see that these status tokens are real.

"Meeting you is just a coincidence. We came from the capital, Tai'an City, and this is our temporary foothold."

"As for the matter of rescuing Runniang, I was really moved by your story, and I don't want to see you end badly." Naturally, Luo Xingchen didn't speak from his heart, but he didn't lie either.

"It seems that I didn't hide it from my lord. My lord has noticed... Hey, if there is no lord, we will be in danger." Wei Linqi said sincerely.

"After you left the Wei family, who protected you?" Luo Xingchen asked.

"My lord, you know that I am from the Wei family. There is a great risk in it. Your lord should not get involved. It will cause great trouble." Wei Linqi did not answer Luo Xingchen's words, but said seriously.

"Big trouble?" Luo Xingchen raised his eyebrows.

Seeing Luo Xingchen's disapproval, Wei Linqi sighed and explained: "I know that your lord is from a famous family and you are an official of the court, but the Wei family is really not simple... The current head of the Wei family, Wei Dewang, was also a Jinshi back then. Minister of the Department, now he is retired at home, but he used to be a member of the Wanjin School of Grand Scholars, and his influence is intricate, very powerful."

"So that's it. Apart from this, does the Wei family have anything else to rely on?" Luo Xingchen showed a serious look on his face.
