A Thousand Gold Order: Inheritance
Chapter 398 The final chapter!
Chapter 398 Final Chapter! (end of text)
Before Qin Shuo could speak again, Qi Huan had already walked out.
Seeing her coming out, Xing Luo, who was guarding outside the yard, hurriedly followed: "Miss, the Second Master Qin came here at night, what happened?"
Qi Huan walked forward without squinting: "I'm going to go out with Qin Shuo for a few days, but I can't let my father and mother know about it. Tonight, you should pack up my change of clothes and daily necessities and hand them over to Mu Xiang and Mu Lan, before my mother gets up early in the morning, tell them to take my carriage to take the things to my third uncle. Later, you go and tell your mother that Brother Chen is not used to living in the third uncle's house alone. I called over to accompany me."
Xing Luo listened carefully and nodded in response.
Qi Huan didn't go back to the backyard directly, but went to the guard's room to find Wei Feng.
They also told the truth when they met: "King Rui and Ye Xunyi came to me and wanted to rob me and go to the southern border, in order to coerce Marquis Wu Cheng into defecting and break the blockade of Yanling Pass for Dacheng's army. I decided to go with them for a while." trip."
Wei Feng refused, so he took a deep breath on the spot: "No! This is a dangerous trip, and I have to order you to take care of your safety. I must not let you get involved in such troubles..."
Before he finished speaking, Qi Huan raised his hand and interrupted: "I didn't come to discuss with you, I have made up my mind on this matter, you just do as I tell you."
"But..." Wei Feng naturally still refused.
Qi Huan said: "I'm just a hostage. I can be safe and sound until they achieve their goals. You don't have to worry about this matter, but if you don't listen to me, you act rashly to scare the snakes and make them realize that the plan has failed, and then drag me to the back... I can’t guarantee the consequences.”
Yun Heng and Ye Xunyi laid out a net and waited for her. She had no time or patience to do Wei Feng's ideological work here, and before Wei Feng had recovered completely, she began to order him Things to do: "You should do three things for me right now. First, the Empress ordered Her Royal Highness to set up guards near the Hou's Mansion. You should know how to contact them. Go find them immediately. I will leave the mansion with Qin Ergong in a while. At that time, tell them not to come forward to stop us and let us go."
Wei Feng was conflicted in his heart, but kept silent with a cold and serious face.
But he was a soldier, so he naturally knew when to abandon his personal emotions and obey orders, and silence at this time was also tantamount to acquiescence.
Qi Huan continued: "Second thing, after I leave, you go to Gao's house at night, don't go through the main entrance, there should be someone watching around the Gao's house, sneak in secretly, find Gao Yunmiao and tell her that I'm here for a while. Xingqi ran to Ganzhou to look for Gu Zhan, but he dared not tell my mother that she should not come to the Hou's mansion until I came back, and she would not come if my aunt was delayed. If my mother asked someone to ask, they would say I Stay with her for a while."
Yun Heng and Ye Xunyi asked Qin Shuo to come to lie to her in the name of Gao Yunmiao, then they would only continue to use Gao Yunmiao as a cover for the Changning Hou Mansion, and Qi Huan guessed that they would definitely call Qin Shuo after they successfully captured themselves. Go to the door again and tell Qi Wenjing and his wife that she went to live with Gao Yunmiao.
But in fact, this lie is not safe.
If Qi Huan only disappeared for three or two days, Gao Yunmiao could be used as an excuse to prevaricate.
more-
Although Qi Huan and Gao Yunmiao had frequent exchanges and a good relationship with each other before, there was no precedent for him to live in Gao's house, but now he suddenly ran over and lived there for ten days and half a month?In a few days, the Yang family will send someone to pick him up, and then the truth will be revealed.
Instead, taking advantage of the fact that Qi Yuanchen lived with Qi Wenyan, she said that she was going to accompany Qi Yuanchen, and the Yang couple would be less likely to be suspicious.
And the reason why she had to lie was to tell Gao Yunmiao not to come to the Hou Mansion in the near future...
This is really helping Yun Heng and Ye Xunyi to lie!
They had to feel that their plan was going well, and that the fact that she was kidnapped had never been exposed, so that they would continue to implement the subsequent plan undefended.
For a moment, Wei Feng didn't really want to understand Qi Huan's devious thoughts behind this, but just like Xing Luo, he carefully memorized every word she ordered.
Finally, Qi Huan said again: "After going to Gao's house, you go to Pingkangfang again, find my third uncle, tell him my whereabouts, and then ask him to lie for me, and I will tell the family that I have been recently Stay with him temporarily, and ask the servant girl to bring clothes and supplies there tomorrow morning."
Knowing that she was taken away by Yun Heng and the others, Qi Wenyan should understand what this means, and he will definitely not stand by and watch.
Success or failure depends on one move, and Qi Huan has put all his eggs in one basket.
Wei Feng still had a serious expression of worry on his face: "Miss, are you going alone?"
Qi Huan said: "Don't follow me when I go out, there is no need to make fearless sacrifices. But your worry is not wrong, and I also cherish my life very much. That Ye Xunyi really makes me very worried. After I leave, pick two Lightness skills are good and those who are good at concealed weapons are stalking."
For the sake of caution, she added after thinking twice: "Just follow along, don't act rashly, under normal circumstances they shouldn't really touch me before seeing Wu Chenghou."
When it came to this point, Wei Feng had no choice but to obey: "Yes, this subordinate obeys."
Qi Huan nodded: "Go ahead, first go say hello to the secret guards of the Imperial Forest Army."
She turned around and led Xing Luo to the backyard.
Xing Luo was also worried: "Miss, are you going alone? Don't you even bring your servants with you?"
Qi Huan glanced sideways at her, and laughed: "Which hostage have you ever seen who can put on a show and serve her with a maid?"
"But..." Xing Luo became anxious immediately.
Qi Huan quickly patted the back of her hand to comfort her: "Okay, stop nagging, I have already thought of everything I should think of, didn't I tell Wei Feng to send someone to follow? You have to follow, it will be a little bit late at that time." What's the matter, they have to be distracted to save one more you, it's not as good as myself."
This logic is enough to convince Xing Luo.
Xing Luo then fell silent.
Qi Huan said again: "You do well in the mansion what I have arranged for you. Although I am confident that I can come back in full, if my mother finds out, they will inevitably follow Xuanxin, so don't go. The third uncle is there, watch for me in the mansion, make sure to appease my mother, don't let her find out. If she questions why you didn't follow the third uncle, you can say that the third uncle always has a cold face, you are afraid, you know ?"
Xingluo saw that she was about to go to that mountain of swords and seas of fire, and she was still thinking about ordering these minutiae and trivial matters, but she was teased by her for a while, and she didn't feel so depressed and nervous.
Dr. Hu's mother and daughter were picked up this time, and Mrs. Yang arranged for them alone in the courtyard where Xun Su's mother and daughter lived before.
Qi Huan went back to the backyard, went to see Dr. Hu first, and then went back to his room and changed into warm but lighter clothes.
Seeing her picking up and putting down a pair of sleeve arrows, Xing Luo couldn't help becoming anxious: "This... miss, don't you wear self-defense?"
Qi Huan sighed: "If someone wants to take me as a hostage, if they catch me, they must search first. If they take it, it's useless. Why don't they send supplies to the other party? Why bother!"
Can't delay for too long, Qi Huan tidied up quickly and went back to the front yard, reconciled with Qin Shuo and went out with him.
Xing Luo reluctantly sent the two of them to the door, but when she saw the chariot and horse attendants waiting at the bottom of the steps, she immediately became alert and asked with her usual demeanor: "It's late, do you really not need to bring your slaves with you?"
Qi Huan smiled and said: "I'm just going to see Yun Miao, I'll be back in a few hours, you go in, remember to leave a door for me."
Ye Xunyi and others made up the reason that Gao Yunmiao was looking for death at home because of losing her virginity, and asked her to persuade her, in order to persuade her to take as few people out as possible, so as to save time from cleaning up.
Qi Huan's cooperation was quite high, he followed Qin Shuo out alone, and got into the carriage brought by Qin Shuo.
Then, the carriage went not far away, and it was successfully robbed.
Qi Huan struggled symbolically, then was tied up, gagged, and stopped.
After that, she and Qin Shuo were separated.
She was stuffed back into the carriage and taken to a dilapidated house near the south city gate at night, but Qin Shuo was temporarily missing.
In view of Yun Heng's deep scheming, he is not easy to deceive, Qi Huan still does a full set of acting, although he is relatively calm in his heart, he still did not close his eyes in the middle of the night.
In the middle of the night, Qin Shuo was also brought here after being drained of his last bit of value in Beijing.
As Qi Huan expected, he was ordered to return to Changning Marquis Mansion an hour after Qi Huan was kidnapped, and sent a message that Qi Huan stayed at Gao's house to stay with Gao Yunxiao for a few days.
So in the middle of the night, Qi Huan stared at the second young master Qin who "lied to her" for half the night.
Maybe it was because she was too involved in the drama, but it made Qin Shuo extremely uncomfortable, and he felt as if he was staring at him like a light on his back.
The two of them were guarded by seven or eight big men, and stayed up all night in the small shabby house, only to be brought out again at dawn the next day.
only--
They are also hostages, but the treatment is very different.
Qi Huan was still tied up, was stuck in the interlayer of a coffin, and was carried out of the city sideways, but Qin Shuo came and went freely, riding a horse to "lead people" out of the city in a grandiose manner.
The two teams met again in a secluded place ten miles outside the city. Qi Huan was dug out from the interlayer of the coffin. It took him a long time to get used to the dazzling light, and then he saw Ye Xunyi.
Ye Xunyi poked her head out of a carriage waiting there, with a smug smile on her face and obvious malice, admiring her embarrassment very comfortably: "Miss Qi, don't come here without any harm!"
Qi Huan's mouth was gagged and he couldn't speak. It happened that she was too lazy to talk nonsense with this woman, so she looked away coldly.
Ye Xunyi also thinks that the status and status of the two of them are very different at this time, so there is no need to talk too much with her, ask someone to remove the cloth ball that gags her mouth, and search her whole body, including her purse and sachet , hairpins, hairpins, earrings and a jade bracelet on his hand, including all jewelry extravagances.
Then, he ordered Qi Huan and Qin Shuo to get into the car together.
Qin Shuo kept feeling guilty, avoiding his eyes and daring not to meet Qi Huan's gaze.
Qi Huan looked at him, then at Ye Xunyi, but couldn't help cursing: "You bitch!"
She stared at Qin Shuo: "I knew you would not be able to support the wall with mud, and I shouldn't have let you go so easily. So you are in cahoots with this woman, deliberately using my cousin as a cover to deceive me? This woman is a criminal." A felon who committed a felony and was decreed to die by His Majesty, you are in cahoots with her, Little Marquis Qin, do you know? This will drag Mrs. Qin and the entire Marquis Wucheng mansion into a whirlpool... For this woman, you don’t even want your relatives and family yes?"
Qin Shuo had a deflated expression on his face, and he had to cooperate with her in acting. He said in a muffled voice, "Sorry... I don't want to target you either, but between you and my mother, I can only make this choice."
Ye Xunyi has experienced so many things before, Qin Shuo is a bit stubborn dude second generation ancestor, but he is not a complete fool, if you say that he is still infatuated with Ye Xunyi, Ye Xunyi will not believe it.
But just for the bamboo grove in Fengming Palace that he tried to persuade, Ye Xunyi believed that he still had some kind of nostalgia and unforgettable affection for him, so he was more at ease when using him.
She sneered watching the two argue.
Qi Huan frowned in confusion: "What do you mean? What do you mean choosing between me and Mrs. Qin?"
Qin Shuo then pursed his lips tightly, making a look of embarrassment.
Qi Huan had no choice but to finally turn his head to look at Ye Xunyi again.
With a smug smile on Ye Xunyi's face, he raised his eyebrows and said, "You don't have to be so curious, I won't kill you in a while, as long as you don't act like a moth, and follow me obediently Once, I won’t make you suffer too much on the way.”
It's not that she doesn't want to take revenge on Qi Huan unscrupulously, but that Qi Huan is indeed useful, so she dare not move.
Although she doesn't want to help Yunheng, she can't watch Yun Zhan take over, because once Yunzhan takes over, she will completely become a bereaved dog and a street rat, with no way out. Now, either Yunheng will protect her, or she will do it Show some achievements and sincerity, surrender to Dacheng's Yu Wencang...
And for all of this, first of all, Dacheng's army must be led to break through the Yanling Pass and enter.
in this way--
Qi Huan, the so-called hostage, must play a role.
Qi Huan said: "If you tie me up like this, my family will soon notice, and once they find out that I'm missing... where are you taking me?"
Ye Xunyi managed to win the game and regained his sense of superiority in front of her, so he wouldn't help her out.
Qi Huan seemed to be under the control of others, and he was a little out of breath. Seeing this, he turned to Qin Shuo again: "What exactly do you want to do?"
Qin Shuo opened his mouth, and when he was about to speak, Ye Xunyi glared at him.
So, he shut up again.
Ye Xunyi actually didn't know how long it would take for the Qi family in the capital to find out that Qi Huan was gone, but at least she was confident that nothing would happen within three to five days, and after the crucial few days, Even if the Qi family finds out that someone is missing, they start a quarrel, find the Qin family, the Gao family, or even ask the palace for help, and follow the clues to suspect Yun Heng...
She is already thousands of miles away, so whatever they do to Yun Heng, she has enough time to work on the following matters.
As long as Dacheng's army came in, the court would be in chaos. If Yun Heng had already received her retribution before then, she could directly join the Dacheng's camp, and it would be no problem to save her life and her life's glory and wealth.
This moment, that moment, she can only make this plan conservatively now.
The group of people traveled day and night, and after seven and a half days, they finally arrived in the area of Yanling Pass.
To be cautious, Ye Xunyi did not enter the city, but found an abandoned yard on the outskirts of the city to settle down.
While sending two people to the city to investigate the specific news and Qin Song's whereabouts, she entered the room where Qi Huan and Qin Shuo were imprisoned.
Because Qin Shuo has been very cooperative, she only tied Qin Shuo when she was resting at night along the way, but now she tied him up again.
After entering the room, she glanced at the two of them, then waved.
An accompanying guard brought in a cloth bag and placed it on the dusty table.
Ye Xunyi paced over to untie the bag. Inside were the personal belongings that had been found from Qin Shuo and Qi Huan at the beginning. She was picking and choosing inside, and asked casually, "Your personal belongings are What are the objects that Wu Chenghou can recognize at a glance?"
Qi Huan remained silent.
This time it was Qin Shuo who refused, and said displeasedly: "My eldest brother is not that easy to deceive, even if you ask someone to take my personal belongings to find him, he may not agree to come to see you, you untie it for me, I'll go and talk to him face to face."
Ye Xunyi pulled the corners of his mouth and glanced at him as if watching a joke: "That can't be done!"
As she said that, she glanced at Qi Huan again: "After all, Miss Qi is someone else's fiancée, even if Wu Chenghou still misses her, but after all, she hasn't seen her for a long time. Has the energy passed? I have to hold you, Second Young Master Qin, in case Miss Qi alone is not enough to make him compromise, plus you... should be enough!"
For a person, there are only three types of people that he cares about in his life, relatives, loved ones, and teachers and friends. Now that she is holding Qi Huan and Qin Shuo at the same time, Ye Xunyi is confident that this weight is enough.
not to mention--
Qin Song still has the knot of Qin Yufeng's death in his heart!
Qi Huan had a lot of jewelry, she wasn't sure if the ones she brought out this time had been worn in front of Qin Song before, so in the end she picked and picked, took Qin Shuo's jade pendant and Qi Huan's purse, and waited to go to the city to find out the news The guard came back and found out that Qin Song was indeed stationed in the city, so he gave him the things and asked him to lure Qin Song over.
The guard picked up the things and was about to leave...
From the corner of Ye Xunyi's eyes, he glanced at Qi Huan, and suddenly felt a bit of evil.
She stopped the man, pulled out a dagger from her sleeve, walked up to Qi Huan, circled around Qi Huan, looked up and down, and looked at Qin Shuo next to him with malicious eyes. They all frowned.
Then, Ye Xunyi stood still behind Qi Huan, the cold edge of the dagger landed on her hands that were tied behind her back, and said with a smile: "What if Marquis Wu Cheng doesn't know how to praise? Should I wear more?" Give him something, like... cut off a finger or an ear of yours?"
While speaking, her dagger was already on the little finger of Qi Huan's hand.
Qin Shuo never thought that this woman would have a whim, and couldn't help but yell at her.
"I advise you to be cautious!" Qi Huan was the first to speak, and said calmly: "Even if you cut off my hand and sent it over, Qin Song will not know that it is my hand until he sees me in person." It’s still yours, but if you really make me see blood, turn around and wait for Qin Song to come over and see... I promise, not only will your plan fail, but he will do the same if you cut me a few pieces of flesh. You have a double cut!"
She is courting death!
Being controlled by others, dare to be so rampant? !
Ye Xunyi was instantly irritated by her, his eyes became fierce immediately, he grabbed her skirt, and said viciously: "Since you are so confident in Wu Chenghou's feelings for you, should we try?"
While speaking, she touched Qi Huan's face with the dagger again, and with a little force, a drop of blood condensed on the tip of the knife.
Qi Huan raised his head and looked directly at her face, but he didn't show any fear. On the contrary, he smiled more reassuringly: "Why do you think Qin Song likes me? Why does he like me? You have to give him my beard and tail. It is the bargaining chip. If I am missing arms or legs or disfigured... Don't you understand men? Only the beautiful jade that you can't ask for is valuable to him. A defective product... Who wants it? I don't care if you are If you want Qin Song to do something for you, since I'm the bargaining chip, you can't move a single strand of my hair until you achieve your goal!"
Although Ye Xunyi has already been irritated by her, but there is a lesson from the past——
In the past, her eldest sister, Ye Xunhui, was the target of being chased by Yun Zheng and Yun Heng, but since Ye Xunhui was disfigured, she immediately became worthless. Keep her out of sight.
Ye Xunyi was emotionally hurt in her previous life, so she really didn't have much confidence in the so-called love of men.
She didn't want to die with Qi Huan, she also wanted to find a way out.
But Qi Huan has fallen to this point and still provokes her face to face, she is really angry, so she still stares at him with dark eyes.
Qi Huan didn't suffer from her. After a moment of confrontation, she let out a breath and said as if she had compromised: "Don't touch me. As long as you guarantee that I'm not hurt, I'm willing to cooperate with you. If Qin Song, my purse, I can't recognize it... There is a scar on the back of his left hand, which I scratched with an arrow. Only he and I know about this matter, and absolutely no third person knows about it. You ask your people to tell him, He will naturally believe that I was restrained by you."
Ye Xunyi was dubious and turned to look at Qin Shuo.
Sure enough, Qin Shuo was also staring at Qi Huan's profile with a surprised expression on his face.
Apparently—
Even he didn't know about it.
Knowing that there is a little secret between Qin Song and Qi Huan that only belongs to two people, it also increased Ye Xunyi's confidence on the other hand.
Unwilling, she gave Qi Huan another look, and then she gave the guard a wink.
The guard nodded and took the order, and hurried out to find Qin Song.
After the guard left, Ye Xunyi still refused to let Qi Huan go easily, she paced back again, took out a small brown pill from her purse, her face was full of malice.
Qi Huan didn't wait for her to stuff it into his mouth, so he closed his eyes annoyedly, and repeated with a suppressed temper: "I said, don't try to use tricks on me until you achieve your goal, as long as you dare to move Let me know, I'm not you, I'd rather die with you in my arms, than ask Qin Song to cooperate with you!"
Ye Xunyi had already pinched her chin, but when he heard this, he hesitated and paused.
She was indeed not sure about Qin Song's temper, but one thing was clear that Qin Song was not easy to fool. Yun Zheng tried to blackmail him by using his affair with Qi Huan before, but failed.
And now, if she feeds Qi Huan poison and then knocks him out, what if Qin Song is so difficult that he will only give in when he sees a alive and kicking Qi Huan...
Anyway, Qin Song and Qi Huan are both pawns, as long as Dacheng's army comes in, then both Qin Song and Qi Huan will become fish on the chopping board, let them deal with it, and there is no rush at this moment.
Struggling and hesitating again and again, Ye Xunyi finally gave up, put away the pills, turned and walked out.
But as soon as she left, Qin Shuo, who was beside him, was so nervous that he almost collapsed, and sat down on the chair tied to him in cold sweat.
He tilted his head to look at Qi Huan.
Because the partition wall has ears, the two dare not talk in private.
Qi Huan only looked at him, exchanging a tacit look.
According to Ye Xunyi's original plan, Qin Song would at least have to wait until nightfall to avoid being seen by others.
But she didn't want to, as soon as her person came over, the other party followed in a hurry.
Ye Xunyi was surprised, but he knew it well——
Even though Qi Huan had already engaged Gu Zhan, she still held an important position in the heart of this young Lord Qin, which made her more confident in this plan.
And Qin Song is really strict.
After the meeting, he didn't question why Ye Xunyi, who was supposed to be a dead person, appeared here alive, but as Qi Huan predicted, he asked to see Qi Huan and Qin Shuo first, to make sure they were safe and sound before talking about anything else.
Ye Xunyi glanced at the team he brought outside the courtyard, and led him directly into the room where Qi Huan and the others were imprisoned.
At that time——
All her hands had surrounded Qi Huan and Qin Shuo, each of them had several long swords around their necks.
It has been nearly three years since we left the capital, but Qin Song never imagined that his reunion with Qi Huan would be in such a situation and occasion.
Two people, looking at each other.
He thought that after seeing her for such a long time, some obsessions should be dissipated naturally, but he didn't even need to come here to really see her with his own eyes, only to hear the person who went to look for him mention the origin of the old scar on his hand He suddenly had the illusion that the subcutaneous wound was bloody and painful.
It turned out that such a long time of avoidance was nothing but a self-deceiving disguise.
It turns out that some people will really become imprints that exist deep in the soul. She knows that it is impossible to be together, but her existence is still different. It only needs a meeting of eyes to seduce people's hearts.
Qin Song had no expression on his face.
When Qin Shuo saw him, he called out happily: "Brother!"
Qin Song's eyes swept across him, and then fixed on Qi Huan, neither agitated nor out of control, just asked decisively and calmly: "Is it okay?"
But it was this calm and unhurried tacit understanding that made Ye Xunyi see clearly——
The relationship between these two people is indeed extraordinary.
Qi Huan was also very calm: "I'm sorry to cause you trouble, I didn't notice it for a while..."
She looked past Qin Song and looked at Ye Xunyi who was standing by the door.
Qin Song didn't say any more, just nodded slightly, then took a deep breath, turned around first, and walked out of the room.
"Brother..." Qin Shuo called out again, and couldn't help pulling his neck and looking out.
Qin Song and Ye Xunyi didn't know what they said outside, but after just a cup of tea, Jian Xinghai brought a few guards into the room.
The guard next to Ye Xunyi also re-entered and ordered his men to back away.
The manpower of both sides occupied each side, and they were all ready to fight——
Ye Xunyi's people stared at Qi Huan and Qin Shuo who were tied to the two seats in the middle, while Jian Xinghai led people to watch them to prevent them from hurting the hostages by rash actions.
As for Qin Song and Ye Xunyi, they never appeared again.
Qin Shuo waited and waited, finally realized something was wrong, and turned to Jian Xinghai, "Where's my elder brother?"
At this time, it was already sunset.
Before Jian Xinghai could speak, someone kicked open the half-covered door.
Seeing that the situation was different, the first reaction of Ye Xunyi's people was to draw their swords and rush forward to chop Qi Huan and the two of them, but outside the door and the window, they saw a dark arrow pressing down...
While forcing them back temporarily, another group of people rushed in from outside.
Wei Feng led his men to kill all the dozen or so guards with lightning speed.
Jian Xinghai recognized him, helped to untie the bondage of Qi Huan and the two of them, and escorted them out of the house first.
The two rushed out of the room in a panic, and saw Qi Wenyan standing in the courtyard wearing a long black gown and a black cloak.
He still looks like a noble son of an aristocratic family, his facial features are handsome and flawless, and his brows and eyes look dignified and distant.
No matter how well he knew in his heart, Qi Huan never thought that he would follow him in person, so he couldn't help being taken aback: "Third Uncle? Why did you come here?"
But at the same time, she immediately realized that she didn't have such a big face, he came—
It must be for the upcoming battle here.
But Qin Shuo searched around, but couldn't find his brother, so he became uneasy, and asked again: "Where is my elder brother?"
Qi Wenyan didn't bother to answer such an obvious question.
Qi Huan could only do it patiently: "Of course he took Ye Xunyi to the Yanling Pass to open the back door, and let the Dacheng army who were waiting in full battle pass through."
"What?" Qin Shuo's expression changed suddenly, and his mind was racing. It was only now that he finally understood the reason and purpose of Ye Xunyi's kidnapping them all the way, and then he panicked, "Then why are you still standing there?" ? Now that we are out of trouble, stop my elder brother quickly, or he will make a big mistake if it is too late."
Qi Wenyan remained indifferent and ignored him.
Qin Shuo didn't know him well, so he could only come to drag Qi Huan.
Qi Huan also stood there without moving: "Are you stupid? It's all agreed to be tricky, otherwise I would have hid from the beginning, why was she tied up and brought here all the way!"
The involvement of this matter is so great that Qin Shuo's scalp tingles when he thinks about it, so he is still puzzled and anxious: "But my elder brother..."
"You're fine, he's much smarter than you, so of course he'll be fine!" Qi Huan ignored him even if he couldn't explain a word or two to him, but asked Qi Wenyan out of curiosity, "Third Uncle, why are you Will come here?"
Only then did Qi Wenyan speak calmly: "Yun Cheng has asked to come to the southern border to lead the army, and I will take the lead for her. Come here first to see the situation."
Qi Huan: ...
Do you want to show your affection so much?
Even though Qi Wenyan was a secret and refused to reveal more, his appearance here gave Qi Huan a reassurance. Qi Huan simply stopped worrying and waited with peace of mind.
Qi Wenyan didn't intend to go into the city or go directly to watch the battle near the checkpoint or even participate in the battle. A large group of them just nested in this simple small courtyard with nothing to do.
At the middle of the night, a spy came to report that it was the lieutenant general guarding the checkpoint at night who was stunned and knocked down by Qin Song. Afterwards, he ordered people to withdraw the guards at the checkpoint, and the Dacheng army who had secretly marched to the bottom of the city drove straight in and killed them directly. .
However, the Dajin military camp at that time was an empty city. The opponent failed to make a surprise attack, but was ambushed and counterattacked by the Dajin army.
Originally, Dacheng came prepared and had an absolute advantage in terms of military strength, even beyond everyone's expectations. This time the troops were led by Dacheng Emperor Yu Wencang himself, so even if they were put together by Qin Song, Dacheng's army still had the momentum soaring……
But when the two sides were fighting in full swing, Yu Wencang suddenly bled from seven holes, fell off his horse and died.
The sudden change caught the adult by surprise.
Before the commander-in-chief and king died suddenly, his entire army was in chaos. One hundred and forty thousand elite troops were trapped in Suogu City. After a whole night of siege and killing, they were slaughtered. , turned around and fled away.
In the early morning of the next day, Qin Song reappeared in the yard with his armor stained with blood.
It is confirmed that Qi Huan, Qin Shuo and others are safe...
Maybe it was because Qi Wenyan was present, so he didn't say anything, he just told them to return to Beijing as soon as possible, and then hurried back to clean up the mess.
At this point, Qin Shuo finally felt completely relieved.
Qi Wenyan stood in the courtyard all night, facing the rising sun at this moment, his face showed a bright and happy expression, and he squinted his eyes.
Qi Huan quietly walked behind him, poking him secretly with his finger: "The emperor of Dacheng secretly came to the frontier army early in the morning, right? He is waiting for the army to break through the blockade of Yanling Pass. Once in a while."
Yu Wencang is a warlike lunatic. He tried countless times over the years but couldn't overcome the blockade of Yanling Pass. It is not surprising that he must want to pass this hurdle by himself.
As for why the opponent died suddenly before the battle, there was no doubt that he was poisoned.
Qi Huan was sure that Qi Wenyan was behind the scenes, but she couldn't ask for details, and she didn't even dare to ask this question.
For some things, it is good for everyone to tacitly agree with each other. If we talk about it...
That would be embarrassing.
After all, although Qi Huan knew that her third uncle was a man with a halo, on the surface he was just a well-behaved civil servant in the middle of the Great Hall, suddenly bursting out with such great energy...
No matter what, it makes people feel unbelievable.
Qi Wenyan, however, was obviously in a good mood, and glanced sideways at her: "My little girl, why are you asking these questions? It's none of your business here. Hurry up and go back to Beijing. If you don't go back, the house will be turned upside down."
Qi Huan didn't dare to let Yang Shi and the others know when he came out. If Yang Shi really found out that they were not in Beijing, the family would indeed be turned upside down.
Qi Huan couldn't get involved in the important affairs of the family and the country, and he didn't have such great ambitions to get involved.
Now that it was confirmed that Da Jin had won a complete victory in the battle of Yanling Pass, there was no surprise, she didn't even bother to ask how Ye Xunyi was doing, and immediately packed up and went back.
Qin Shuo, on the other hand, had not seen his brother for a long time, so he finally came here and insisted on staying for a few more days.
Qi Huan didn't force it either, Wei Feng escorted him and left alone.
As far as the capital is concerned, the emperor has not touched Yunheng, but has asked people to closely monitor his whereabouts, so as not to startle the snake and alert Dacheng's envoys and spies in the capital. There is no way to sing the big drama of inviting the king into the urn.And the emperor also counted the timing, reckoning that there should be no mistakes here, on the same night that Yu Wencang died suddenly, the prince Yun Zhan personally led people to surround Rui Wang's mansion and took Yun Heng down.
When Qi Huan hurried back to the capital, the news of the border city's victory had been received two days earlier in the capital, and everyone from the court to the people was beaming with joy.
Since Qi Wenyan was not in Beijing, Qi Huan went directly to pick up Qi Yuanchen and went home together.
However, the battle situation in the southern border did not stop there. Dajin's army took advantage of the victory and pursued. Taking advantage of the death of Emperor Dacheng in front of the battle, the princes and vassal kings in the Dacheng Dynasty were in chaos, and the morale of the army was greatly reduced...
Sure enough, the soldiers divided into three groups and went south.
Marquis Dingbei, the head coach of the Southern Territory, Yun Cheng, the first princess, and Qin Song, the Marquis of Wucheng, who had just made great achievements, each led a team. The three of them split up and marched southward. It only took more than a month to conquer more than [-]% of the territory of Dacheng. Get it all in your bag.
The surviving members of the royal family of Dacheng retreated to the barren wild land with the temporarily formed small court, and at the same time completely lost the ability to compete with the Dajin court.
Since then, the Great Hajj Dynasty has reached an unprecedented heyday, the region is rich, it deters its neighbors, and it prospers.
After the triumphant return of the army, the Marquis of Dingbei retired, resigned for the second time, and was named Duke of Ding.
The first princess Yun Cheng stayed in the Southern Territory as the head coach.
Wu Chenghou Qin Song, who also made great contributions, was transferred to Ganzhou.
At the end of March, after the world was settled, the emperor issued an edict to abdicate, intending to formally pass the throne to the prince, and he himself retired behind the scenes to become the overlord.
The elderly Ping Guogong was accompanied by his son Gu Zhan back to Beijing to participate in the new emperor's enthronement ceremony, and presided over his grandson's wedding ceremony by the way. He finally ended his decades of military service and prepared to spend his days in Beijing.
Qi Huan inquired about the return date of their party early, and went out of the city to meet them before dawn that day, but met Queen Gu outside the city who also came to pick them up.
Qi Huan was very surprised, but after thinking about it——
If Queen Gu hadn't entered the palace on her own will, the old Duke would have retired from the frontier battlefield twenty years ago. After all these years, Queen Gu must have felt ashamed of him.
Only--
This is another family matter, she is not easy to ask, so she didn't talk too much.
It was Empress Gu who took the initiative to speak: "Speaking of which, from the selfishness of the palace, I should thank you. The death of old Wu Chenghou was always a knot in Wu Chenghou's heart. If you hadn't come forward to replace the old Hou Ye Send him a final letter... Afterwards King Rui and others encouraged him again and again, so maybe he won't turn against him."
Before Qin Yufeng and Yunxiang decided to die in the city, they probably thought that there might be rumors and speculations afterwards, so everyone left a last letter to explain the reasons and benefits of the matter.
Yunxiang's is for the emperor and Empress Gu, who was still the eldest lady of the Gu family at that time, and Qin Yufeng's is for his eldest son Qin Song.
It's just that Qin Song was still young at the time, and the emperor felt that this was a shocking thing, thinking that since everything was safe, there was no need to let him know, so he withheld the letter in his hand, thinking that there must be something wrong. If necessary, there is no need to show it to Qin Song.
It's just that no one thought that Qin Song's thoughts were deep. Although he didn't show it on the surface, he had long been suspicious of his father's death...
In the case that he has already focused on a dead end, in fact, even if the emperor or empress Gu gave him the letter, he may not change his mind, but fortunately, he has special thoughts on Qi Huan, so he left Beijing to join the army at that time Empress Gu had approached Qi Huan before and asked her to come forward and deliver the letter.
In this matter, both of them have their own disgrace.
Empress Gu took advantage of Qi Huan.
And Qi Huan——
It took advantage of Qin Song's feelings for her.
But after all, the result is quite satisfactory, Qin Song finally abandoned his hatred and obsession, and was not bewitched by Yun Heng and Ye Xunyi.
"Wu Chenghou is still a person with principles and bottom lines." Qi Huan didn't want to bring up this old matter again, so he changed the subject: "I heard that His Majesty and His Royal Highness still saved King Rui's life and entrusted him for life. Under house arrest?"
Queen Gu smiled and said, "Your Majesty is soft-hearted."
She didn't say much, and Qi Huan didn't ask too much, but the two of them knew each other well——
Yunheng is not Yunzheng. After Yunzheng escaped from death that time, he was rescued from the fire scene of the imperial mausoleum by Gu Zhan, and he learned his lesson. The idle prince spends his days, but Yun Heng's heart is stronger and his obsession is deeper. The emperor intends to save his life, and he himself is afraid that he will not be able to bear such a lingering life...
But no matter what, before and after countless times, the emperor gave him the opportunity that should be given time and time again, and it was he who insisted on going his own way and refused to turn back.
On this point, he and Ye Xunyi are a perfect match, they both think highly of themselves and have to go the same way to the dark!
Duke Ping Guo returned to Beijing, and the next day he brought Gu Zhan to visit in person as an elder. He came to the Marquis of Changning to discuss with Qi Wenjing and his wife face to face the details of the wedding date of the two children and the wedding.
While they were discussing business in the front hall, Gu Zhan dragged Qi Huan and sneaked out, and asked Jiang Xuan to bring in a small wooden box.
"What are you doing?" Qi Huan felt that it was not polite to leave like this, and couldn't help but look back at the courtyard behind him frequently, "You have already given the betrothal gift, so what is this?"
Gu Zhan had a stern face, but looked unhappy, and said in a firm tone, "I didn't give it to you, but Marquis Wu Cheng asked me to bring it back, saying it was a gift for you and my wedding."
After a pause, he said again: "He won't come back to drink the wedding wine."
When mentioning Qin Song, Qi Huan felt somewhat awkward and guilty.
The smile on her face froze uncontrollably. Seeing that Gu Zhan was still staring at her intently, she also thought it was funny that he was so narrow-minded: "You are curious, why don't you open it first and take a look yourself, and now you are angry at me?" for what?"
The box was unlocked, so Qi Huan opened it without any hassle.
Neatly stacked inside are dozens of account books, and another document.
On the top, there is a piece of strangely shaped old fabric that can't be washed out of its original color.
Qi Huan saw it in his eyes and immediately recognized that it was the half of his sleeve that she had scratched when she stabbed Qin Song.
She didn't explain the origin of this piece of fabric to Gu Zhan, but just handed it to Xing Luo: "Dispose of it."
Then he flipped through the things below, looked at Gu Zhan with a smile on his face, and said, "It was the bargaining chip for me to retire from the Qin family. He returned the business road that my mother ceded to the Qin family. I will not be with him in the future." If there are any more contacts, including letters, he is determined to let go of them completely!"
The relationship between her and Qin Song started with the ownership of this business road, and now it also ends with it, from beginning to end, clean and tidy.
And she and Gu Zhan...
The errands started from the first meeting on the bed, and they echoed from beginning to end!
The main text is over, and there are two small episodes by Qi Yuanchen and Queen Gu. I will delay it for two days, and it is expected to be released on the 31st of the end of the month. Babies have worked hard to follow the article. I love you.
(End of this chapter)
Before Qin Shuo could speak again, Qi Huan had already walked out.
Seeing her coming out, Xing Luo, who was guarding outside the yard, hurriedly followed: "Miss, the Second Master Qin came here at night, what happened?"
Qi Huan walked forward without squinting: "I'm going to go out with Qin Shuo for a few days, but I can't let my father and mother know about it. Tonight, you should pack up my change of clothes and daily necessities and hand them over to Mu Xiang and Mu Lan, before my mother gets up early in the morning, tell them to take my carriage to take the things to my third uncle. Later, you go and tell your mother that Brother Chen is not used to living in the third uncle's house alone. I called over to accompany me."
Xing Luo listened carefully and nodded in response.
Qi Huan didn't go back to the backyard directly, but went to the guard's room to find Wei Feng.
They also told the truth when they met: "King Rui and Ye Xunyi came to me and wanted to rob me and go to the southern border, in order to coerce Marquis Wu Cheng into defecting and break the blockade of Yanling Pass for Dacheng's army. I decided to go with them for a while." trip."
Wei Feng refused, so he took a deep breath on the spot: "No! This is a dangerous trip, and I have to order you to take care of your safety. I must not let you get involved in such troubles..."
Before he finished speaking, Qi Huan raised his hand and interrupted: "I didn't come to discuss with you, I have made up my mind on this matter, you just do as I tell you."
"But..." Wei Feng naturally still refused.
Qi Huan said: "I'm just a hostage. I can be safe and sound until they achieve their goals. You don't have to worry about this matter, but if you don't listen to me, you act rashly to scare the snakes and make them realize that the plan has failed, and then drag me to the back... I can’t guarantee the consequences.”
Yun Heng and Ye Xunyi laid out a net and waited for her. She had no time or patience to do Wei Feng's ideological work here, and before Wei Feng had recovered completely, she began to order him Things to do: "You should do three things for me right now. First, the Empress ordered Her Royal Highness to set up guards near the Hou's Mansion. You should know how to contact them. Go find them immediately. I will leave the mansion with Qin Ergong in a while. At that time, tell them not to come forward to stop us and let us go."
Wei Feng was conflicted in his heart, but kept silent with a cold and serious face.
But he was a soldier, so he naturally knew when to abandon his personal emotions and obey orders, and silence at this time was also tantamount to acquiescence.
Qi Huan continued: "Second thing, after I leave, you go to Gao's house at night, don't go through the main entrance, there should be someone watching around the Gao's house, sneak in secretly, find Gao Yunmiao and tell her that I'm here for a while. Xingqi ran to Ganzhou to look for Gu Zhan, but he dared not tell my mother that she should not come to the Hou's mansion until I came back, and she would not come if my aunt was delayed. If my mother asked someone to ask, they would say I Stay with her for a while."
Yun Heng and Ye Xunyi asked Qin Shuo to come to lie to her in the name of Gao Yunmiao, then they would only continue to use Gao Yunmiao as a cover for the Changning Hou Mansion, and Qi Huan guessed that they would definitely call Qin Shuo after they successfully captured themselves. Go to the door again and tell Qi Wenjing and his wife that she went to live with Gao Yunmiao.
But in fact, this lie is not safe.
If Qi Huan only disappeared for three or two days, Gao Yunmiao could be used as an excuse to prevaricate.
more-
Although Qi Huan and Gao Yunmiao had frequent exchanges and a good relationship with each other before, there was no precedent for him to live in Gao's house, but now he suddenly ran over and lived there for ten days and half a month?In a few days, the Yang family will send someone to pick him up, and then the truth will be revealed.
Instead, taking advantage of the fact that Qi Yuanchen lived with Qi Wenyan, she said that she was going to accompany Qi Yuanchen, and the Yang couple would be less likely to be suspicious.
And the reason why she had to lie was to tell Gao Yunmiao not to come to the Hou Mansion in the near future...
This is really helping Yun Heng and Ye Xunyi to lie!
They had to feel that their plan was going well, and that the fact that she was kidnapped had never been exposed, so that they would continue to implement the subsequent plan undefended.
For a moment, Wei Feng didn't really want to understand Qi Huan's devious thoughts behind this, but just like Xing Luo, he carefully memorized every word she ordered.
Finally, Qi Huan said again: "After going to Gao's house, you go to Pingkangfang again, find my third uncle, tell him my whereabouts, and then ask him to lie for me, and I will tell the family that I have been recently Stay with him temporarily, and ask the servant girl to bring clothes and supplies there tomorrow morning."
Knowing that she was taken away by Yun Heng and the others, Qi Wenyan should understand what this means, and he will definitely not stand by and watch.
Success or failure depends on one move, and Qi Huan has put all his eggs in one basket.
Wei Feng still had a serious expression of worry on his face: "Miss, are you going alone?"
Qi Huan said: "Don't follow me when I go out, there is no need to make fearless sacrifices. But your worry is not wrong, and I also cherish my life very much. That Ye Xunyi really makes me very worried. After I leave, pick two Lightness skills are good and those who are good at concealed weapons are stalking."
For the sake of caution, she added after thinking twice: "Just follow along, don't act rashly, under normal circumstances they shouldn't really touch me before seeing Wu Chenghou."
When it came to this point, Wei Feng had no choice but to obey: "Yes, this subordinate obeys."
Qi Huan nodded: "Go ahead, first go say hello to the secret guards of the Imperial Forest Army."
She turned around and led Xing Luo to the backyard.
Xing Luo was also worried: "Miss, are you going alone? Don't you even bring your servants with you?"
Qi Huan glanced sideways at her, and laughed: "Which hostage have you ever seen who can put on a show and serve her with a maid?"
"But..." Xing Luo became anxious immediately.
Qi Huan quickly patted the back of her hand to comfort her: "Okay, stop nagging, I have already thought of everything I should think of, didn't I tell Wei Feng to send someone to follow? You have to follow, it will be a little bit late at that time." What's the matter, they have to be distracted to save one more you, it's not as good as myself."
This logic is enough to convince Xing Luo.
Xing Luo then fell silent.
Qi Huan said again: "You do well in the mansion what I have arranged for you. Although I am confident that I can come back in full, if my mother finds out, they will inevitably follow Xuanxin, so don't go. The third uncle is there, watch for me in the mansion, make sure to appease my mother, don't let her find out. If she questions why you didn't follow the third uncle, you can say that the third uncle always has a cold face, you are afraid, you know ?"
Xingluo saw that she was about to go to that mountain of swords and seas of fire, and she was still thinking about ordering these minutiae and trivial matters, but she was teased by her for a while, and she didn't feel so depressed and nervous.
Dr. Hu's mother and daughter were picked up this time, and Mrs. Yang arranged for them alone in the courtyard where Xun Su's mother and daughter lived before.
Qi Huan went back to the backyard, went to see Dr. Hu first, and then went back to his room and changed into warm but lighter clothes.
Seeing her picking up and putting down a pair of sleeve arrows, Xing Luo couldn't help becoming anxious: "This... miss, don't you wear self-defense?"
Qi Huan sighed: "If someone wants to take me as a hostage, if they catch me, they must search first. If they take it, it's useless. Why don't they send supplies to the other party? Why bother!"
Can't delay for too long, Qi Huan tidied up quickly and went back to the front yard, reconciled with Qin Shuo and went out with him.
Xing Luo reluctantly sent the two of them to the door, but when she saw the chariot and horse attendants waiting at the bottom of the steps, she immediately became alert and asked with her usual demeanor: "It's late, do you really not need to bring your slaves with you?"
Qi Huan smiled and said: "I'm just going to see Yun Miao, I'll be back in a few hours, you go in, remember to leave a door for me."
Ye Xunyi and others made up the reason that Gao Yunmiao was looking for death at home because of losing her virginity, and asked her to persuade her, in order to persuade her to take as few people out as possible, so as to save time from cleaning up.
Qi Huan's cooperation was quite high, he followed Qin Shuo out alone, and got into the carriage brought by Qin Shuo.
Then, the carriage went not far away, and it was successfully robbed.
Qi Huan struggled symbolically, then was tied up, gagged, and stopped.
After that, she and Qin Shuo were separated.
She was stuffed back into the carriage and taken to a dilapidated house near the south city gate at night, but Qin Shuo was temporarily missing.
In view of Yun Heng's deep scheming, he is not easy to deceive, Qi Huan still does a full set of acting, although he is relatively calm in his heart, he still did not close his eyes in the middle of the night.
In the middle of the night, Qin Shuo was also brought here after being drained of his last bit of value in Beijing.
As Qi Huan expected, he was ordered to return to Changning Marquis Mansion an hour after Qi Huan was kidnapped, and sent a message that Qi Huan stayed at Gao's house to stay with Gao Yunxiao for a few days.
So in the middle of the night, Qi Huan stared at the second young master Qin who "lied to her" for half the night.
Maybe it was because she was too involved in the drama, but it made Qin Shuo extremely uncomfortable, and he felt as if he was staring at him like a light on his back.
The two of them were guarded by seven or eight big men, and stayed up all night in the small shabby house, only to be brought out again at dawn the next day.
only--
They are also hostages, but the treatment is very different.
Qi Huan was still tied up, was stuck in the interlayer of a coffin, and was carried out of the city sideways, but Qin Shuo came and went freely, riding a horse to "lead people" out of the city in a grandiose manner.
The two teams met again in a secluded place ten miles outside the city. Qi Huan was dug out from the interlayer of the coffin. It took him a long time to get used to the dazzling light, and then he saw Ye Xunyi.
Ye Xunyi poked her head out of a carriage waiting there, with a smug smile on her face and obvious malice, admiring her embarrassment very comfortably: "Miss Qi, don't come here without any harm!"
Qi Huan's mouth was gagged and he couldn't speak. It happened that she was too lazy to talk nonsense with this woman, so she looked away coldly.
Ye Xunyi also thinks that the status and status of the two of them are very different at this time, so there is no need to talk too much with her, ask someone to remove the cloth ball that gags her mouth, and search her whole body, including her purse and sachet , hairpins, hairpins, earrings and a jade bracelet on his hand, including all jewelry extravagances.
Then, he ordered Qi Huan and Qin Shuo to get into the car together.
Qin Shuo kept feeling guilty, avoiding his eyes and daring not to meet Qi Huan's gaze.
Qi Huan looked at him, then at Ye Xunyi, but couldn't help cursing: "You bitch!"
She stared at Qin Shuo: "I knew you would not be able to support the wall with mud, and I shouldn't have let you go so easily. So you are in cahoots with this woman, deliberately using my cousin as a cover to deceive me? This woman is a criminal." A felon who committed a felony and was decreed to die by His Majesty, you are in cahoots with her, Little Marquis Qin, do you know? This will drag Mrs. Qin and the entire Marquis Wucheng mansion into a whirlpool... For this woman, you don’t even want your relatives and family yes?"
Qin Shuo had a deflated expression on his face, and he had to cooperate with her in acting. He said in a muffled voice, "Sorry... I don't want to target you either, but between you and my mother, I can only make this choice."
Ye Xunyi has experienced so many things before, Qin Shuo is a bit stubborn dude second generation ancestor, but he is not a complete fool, if you say that he is still infatuated with Ye Xunyi, Ye Xunyi will not believe it.
But just for the bamboo grove in Fengming Palace that he tried to persuade, Ye Xunyi believed that he still had some kind of nostalgia and unforgettable affection for him, so he was more at ease when using him.
She sneered watching the two argue.
Qi Huan frowned in confusion: "What do you mean? What do you mean choosing between me and Mrs. Qin?"
Qin Shuo then pursed his lips tightly, making a look of embarrassment.
Qi Huan had no choice but to finally turn his head to look at Ye Xunyi again.
With a smug smile on Ye Xunyi's face, he raised his eyebrows and said, "You don't have to be so curious, I won't kill you in a while, as long as you don't act like a moth, and follow me obediently Once, I won’t make you suffer too much on the way.”
It's not that she doesn't want to take revenge on Qi Huan unscrupulously, but that Qi Huan is indeed useful, so she dare not move.
Although she doesn't want to help Yunheng, she can't watch Yun Zhan take over, because once Yunzhan takes over, she will completely become a bereaved dog and a street rat, with no way out. Now, either Yunheng will protect her, or she will do it Show some achievements and sincerity, surrender to Dacheng's Yu Wencang...
And for all of this, first of all, Dacheng's army must be led to break through the Yanling Pass and enter.
in this way--
Qi Huan, the so-called hostage, must play a role.
Qi Huan said: "If you tie me up like this, my family will soon notice, and once they find out that I'm missing... where are you taking me?"
Ye Xunyi managed to win the game and regained his sense of superiority in front of her, so he wouldn't help her out.
Qi Huan seemed to be under the control of others, and he was a little out of breath. Seeing this, he turned to Qin Shuo again: "What exactly do you want to do?"
Qin Shuo opened his mouth, and when he was about to speak, Ye Xunyi glared at him.
So, he shut up again.
Ye Xunyi actually didn't know how long it would take for the Qi family in the capital to find out that Qi Huan was gone, but at least she was confident that nothing would happen within three to five days, and after the crucial few days, Even if the Qi family finds out that someone is missing, they start a quarrel, find the Qin family, the Gao family, or even ask the palace for help, and follow the clues to suspect Yun Heng...
She is already thousands of miles away, so whatever they do to Yun Heng, she has enough time to work on the following matters.
As long as Dacheng's army came in, the court would be in chaos. If Yun Heng had already received her retribution before then, she could directly join the Dacheng's camp, and it would be no problem to save her life and her life's glory and wealth.
This moment, that moment, she can only make this plan conservatively now.
The group of people traveled day and night, and after seven and a half days, they finally arrived in the area of Yanling Pass.
To be cautious, Ye Xunyi did not enter the city, but found an abandoned yard on the outskirts of the city to settle down.
While sending two people to the city to investigate the specific news and Qin Song's whereabouts, she entered the room where Qi Huan and Qin Shuo were imprisoned.
Because Qin Shuo has been very cooperative, she only tied Qin Shuo when she was resting at night along the way, but now she tied him up again.
After entering the room, she glanced at the two of them, then waved.
An accompanying guard brought in a cloth bag and placed it on the dusty table.
Ye Xunyi paced over to untie the bag. Inside were the personal belongings that had been found from Qin Shuo and Qi Huan at the beginning. She was picking and choosing inside, and asked casually, "Your personal belongings are What are the objects that Wu Chenghou can recognize at a glance?"
Qi Huan remained silent.
This time it was Qin Shuo who refused, and said displeasedly: "My eldest brother is not that easy to deceive, even if you ask someone to take my personal belongings to find him, he may not agree to come to see you, you untie it for me, I'll go and talk to him face to face."
Ye Xunyi pulled the corners of his mouth and glanced at him as if watching a joke: "That can't be done!"
As she said that, she glanced at Qi Huan again: "After all, Miss Qi is someone else's fiancée, even if Wu Chenghou still misses her, but after all, she hasn't seen her for a long time. Has the energy passed? I have to hold you, Second Young Master Qin, in case Miss Qi alone is not enough to make him compromise, plus you... should be enough!"
For a person, there are only three types of people that he cares about in his life, relatives, loved ones, and teachers and friends. Now that she is holding Qi Huan and Qin Shuo at the same time, Ye Xunyi is confident that this weight is enough.
not to mention--
Qin Song still has the knot of Qin Yufeng's death in his heart!
Qi Huan had a lot of jewelry, she wasn't sure if the ones she brought out this time had been worn in front of Qin Song before, so in the end she picked and picked, took Qin Shuo's jade pendant and Qi Huan's purse, and waited to go to the city to find out the news The guard came back and found out that Qin Song was indeed stationed in the city, so he gave him the things and asked him to lure Qin Song over.
The guard picked up the things and was about to leave...
From the corner of Ye Xunyi's eyes, he glanced at Qi Huan, and suddenly felt a bit of evil.
She stopped the man, pulled out a dagger from her sleeve, walked up to Qi Huan, circled around Qi Huan, looked up and down, and looked at Qin Shuo next to him with malicious eyes. They all frowned.
Then, Ye Xunyi stood still behind Qi Huan, the cold edge of the dagger landed on her hands that were tied behind her back, and said with a smile: "What if Marquis Wu Cheng doesn't know how to praise? Should I wear more?" Give him something, like... cut off a finger or an ear of yours?"
While speaking, her dagger was already on the little finger of Qi Huan's hand.
Qin Shuo never thought that this woman would have a whim, and couldn't help but yell at her.
"I advise you to be cautious!" Qi Huan was the first to speak, and said calmly: "Even if you cut off my hand and sent it over, Qin Song will not know that it is my hand until he sees me in person." It’s still yours, but if you really make me see blood, turn around and wait for Qin Song to come over and see... I promise, not only will your plan fail, but he will do the same if you cut me a few pieces of flesh. You have a double cut!"
She is courting death!
Being controlled by others, dare to be so rampant? !
Ye Xunyi was instantly irritated by her, his eyes became fierce immediately, he grabbed her skirt, and said viciously: "Since you are so confident in Wu Chenghou's feelings for you, should we try?"
While speaking, she touched Qi Huan's face with the dagger again, and with a little force, a drop of blood condensed on the tip of the knife.
Qi Huan raised his head and looked directly at her face, but he didn't show any fear. On the contrary, he smiled more reassuringly: "Why do you think Qin Song likes me? Why does he like me? You have to give him my beard and tail. It is the bargaining chip. If I am missing arms or legs or disfigured... Don't you understand men? Only the beautiful jade that you can't ask for is valuable to him. A defective product... Who wants it? I don't care if you are If you want Qin Song to do something for you, since I'm the bargaining chip, you can't move a single strand of my hair until you achieve your goal!"
Although Ye Xunyi has already been irritated by her, but there is a lesson from the past——
In the past, her eldest sister, Ye Xunhui, was the target of being chased by Yun Zheng and Yun Heng, but since Ye Xunhui was disfigured, she immediately became worthless. Keep her out of sight.
Ye Xunyi was emotionally hurt in her previous life, so she really didn't have much confidence in the so-called love of men.
She didn't want to die with Qi Huan, she also wanted to find a way out.
But Qi Huan has fallen to this point and still provokes her face to face, she is really angry, so she still stares at him with dark eyes.
Qi Huan didn't suffer from her. After a moment of confrontation, she let out a breath and said as if she had compromised: "Don't touch me. As long as you guarantee that I'm not hurt, I'm willing to cooperate with you. If Qin Song, my purse, I can't recognize it... There is a scar on the back of his left hand, which I scratched with an arrow. Only he and I know about this matter, and absolutely no third person knows about it. You ask your people to tell him, He will naturally believe that I was restrained by you."
Ye Xunyi was dubious and turned to look at Qin Shuo.
Sure enough, Qin Shuo was also staring at Qi Huan's profile with a surprised expression on his face.
Apparently—
Even he didn't know about it.
Knowing that there is a little secret between Qin Song and Qi Huan that only belongs to two people, it also increased Ye Xunyi's confidence on the other hand.
Unwilling, she gave Qi Huan another look, and then she gave the guard a wink.
The guard nodded and took the order, and hurried out to find Qin Song.
After the guard left, Ye Xunyi still refused to let Qi Huan go easily, she paced back again, took out a small brown pill from her purse, her face was full of malice.
Qi Huan didn't wait for her to stuff it into his mouth, so he closed his eyes annoyedly, and repeated with a suppressed temper: "I said, don't try to use tricks on me until you achieve your goal, as long as you dare to move Let me know, I'm not you, I'd rather die with you in my arms, than ask Qin Song to cooperate with you!"
Ye Xunyi had already pinched her chin, but when he heard this, he hesitated and paused.
She was indeed not sure about Qin Song's temper, but one thing was clear that Qin Song was not easy to fool. Yun Zheng tried to blackmail him by using his affair with Qi Huan before, but failed.
And now, if she feeds Qi Huan poison and then knocks him out, what if Qin Song is so difficult that he will only give in when he sees a alive and kicking Qi Huan...
Anyway, Qin Song and Qi Huan are both pawns, as long as Dacheng's army comes in, then both Qin Song and Qi Huan will become fish on the chopping board, let them deal with it, and there is no rush at this moment.
Struggling and hesitating again and again, Ye Xunyi finally gave up, put away the pills, turned and walked out.
But as soon as she left, Qin Shuo, who was beside him, was so nervous that he almost collapsed, and sat down on the chair tied to him in cold sweat.
He tilted his head to look at Qi Huan.
Because the partition wall has ears, the two dare not talk in private.
Qi Huan only looked at him, exchanging a tacit look.
According to Ye Xunyi's original plan, Qin Song would at least have to wait until nightfall to avoid being seen by others.
But she didn't want to, as soon as her person came over, the other party followed in a hurry.
Ye Xunyi was surprised, but he knew it well——
Even though Qi Huan had already engaged Gu Zhan, she still held an important position in the heart of this young Lord Qin, which made her more confident in this plan.
And Qin Song is really strict.
After the meeting, he didn't question why Ye Xunyi, who was supposed to be a dead person, appeared here alive, but as Qi Huan predicted, he asked to see Qi Huan and Qin Shuo first, to make sure they were safe and sound before talking about anything else.
Ye Xunyi glanced at the team he brought outside the courtyard, and led him directly into the room where Qi Huan and the others were imprisoned.
At that time——
All her hands had surrounded Qi Huan and Qin Shuo, each of them had several long swords around their necks.
It has been nearly three years since we left the capital, but Qin Song never imagined that his reunion with Qi Huan would be in such a situation and occasion.
Two people, looking at each other.
He thought that after seeing her for such a long time, some obsessions should be dissipated naturally, but he didn't even need to come here to really see her with his own eyes, only to hear the person who went to look for him mention the origin of the old scar on his hand He suddenly had the illusion that the subcutaneous wound was bloody and painful.
It turned out that such a long time of avoidance was nothing but a self-deceiving disguise.
It turns out that some people will really become imprints that exist deep in the soul. She knows that it is impossible to be together, but her existence is still different. It only needs a meeting of eyes to seduce people's hearts.
Qin Song had no expression on his face.
When Qin Shuo saw him, he called out happily: "Brother!"
Qin Song's eyes swept across him, and then fixed on Qi Huan, neither agitated nor out of control, just asked decisively and calmly: "Is it okay?"
But it was this calm and unhurried tacit understanding that made Ye Xunyi see clearly——
The relationship between these two people is indeed extraordinary.
Qi Huan was also very calm: "I'm sorry to cause you trouble, I didn't notice it for a while..."
She looked past Qin Song and looked at Ye Xunyi who was standing by the door.
Qin Song didn't say any more, just nodded slightly, then took a deep breath, turned around first, and walked out of the room.
"Brother..." Qin Shuo called out again, and couldn't help pulling his neck and looking out.
Qin Song and Ye Xunyi didn't know what they said outside, but after just a cup of tea, Jian Xinghai brought a few guards into the room.
The guard next to Ye Xunyi also re-entered and ordered his men to back away.
The manpower of both sides occupied each side, and they were all ready to fight——
Ye Xunyi's people stared at Qi Huan and Qin Shuo who were tied to the two seats in the middle, while Jian Xinghai led people to watch them to prevent them from hurting the hostages by rash actions.
As for Qin Song and Ye Xunyi, they never appeared again.
Qin Shuo waited and waited, finally realized something was wrong, and turned to Jian Xinghai, "Where's my elder brother?"
At this time, it was already sunset.
Before Jian Xinghai could speak, someone kicked open the half-covered door.
Seeing that the situation was different, the first reaction of Ye Xunyi's people was to draw their swords and rush forward to chop Qi Huan and the two of them, but outside the door and the window, they saw a dark arrow pressing down...
While forcing them back temporarily, another group of people rushed in from outside.
Wei Feng led his men to kill all the dozen or so guards with lightning speed.
Jian Xinghai recognized him, helped to untie the bondage of Qi Huan and the two of them, and escorted them out of the house first.
The two rushed out of the room in a panic, and saw Qi Wenyan standing in the courtyard wearing a long black gown and a black cloak.
He still looks like a noble son of an aristocratic family, his facial features are handsome and flawless, and his brows and eyes look dignified and distant.
No matter how well he knew in his heart, Qi Huan never thought that he would follow him in person, so he couldn't help being taken aback: "Third Uncle? Why did you come here?"
But at the same time, she immediately realized that she didn't have such a big face, he came—
It must be for the upcoming battle here.
But Qin Shuo searched around, but couldn't find his brother, so he became uneasy, and asked again: "Where is my elder brother?"
Qi Wenyan didn't bother to answer such an obvious question.
Qi Huan could only do it patiently: "Of course he took Ye Xunyi to the Yanling Pass to open the back door, and let the Dacheng army who were waiting in full battle pass through."
"What?" Qin Shuo's expression changed suddenly, and his mind was racing. It was only now that he finally understood the reason and purpose of Ye Xunyi's kidnapping them all the way, and then he panicked, "Then why are you still standing there?" ? Now that we are out of trouble, stop my elder brother quickly, or he will make a big mistake if it is too late."
Qi Wenyan remained indifferent and ignored him.
Qin Shuo didn't know him well, so he could only come to drag Qi Huan.
Qi Huan also stood there without moving: "Are you stupid? It's all agreed to be tricky, otherwise I would have hid from the beginning, why was she tied up and brought here all the way!"
The involvement of this matter is so great that Qin Shuo's scalp tingles when he thinks about it, so he is still puzzled and anxious: "But my elder brother..."
"You're fine, he's much smarter than you, so of course he'll be fine!" Qi Huan ignored him even if he couldn't explain a word or two to him, but asked Qi Wenyan out of curiosity, "Third Uncle, why are you Will come here?"
Only then did Qi Wenyan speak calmly: "Yun Cheng has asked to come to the southern border to lead the army, and I will take the lead for her. Come here first to see the situation."
Qi Huan: ...
Do you want to show your affection so much?
Even though Qi Wenyan was a secret and refused to reveal more, his appearance here gave Qi Huan a reassurance. Qi Huan simply stopped worrying and waited with peace of mind.
Qi Wenyan didn't intend to go into the city or go directly to watch the battle near the checkpoint or even participate in the battle. A large group of them just nested in this simple small courtyard with nothing to do.
At the middle of the night, a spy came to report that it was the lieutenant general guarding the checkpoint at night who was stunned and knocked down by Qin Song. Afterwards, he ordered people to withdraw the guards at the checkpoint, and the Dacheng army who had secretly marched to the bottom of the city drove straight in and killed them directly. .
However, the Dajin military camp at that time was an empty city. The opponent failed to make a surprise attack, but was ambushed and counterattacked by the Dajin army.
Originally, Dacheng came prepared and had an absolute advantage in terms of military strength, even beyond everyone's expectations. This time the troops were led by Dacheng Emperor Yu Wencang himself, so even if they were put together by Qin Song, Dacheng's army still had the momentum soaring……
But when the two sides were fighting in full swing, Yu Wencang suddenly bled from seven holes, fell off his horse and died.
The sudden change caught the adult by surprise.
Before the commander-in-chief and king died suddenly, his entire army was in chaos. One hundred and forty thousand elite troops were trapped in Suogu City. After a whole night of siege and killing, they were slaughtered. , turned around and fled away.
In the early morning of the next day, Qin Song reappeared in the yard with his armor stained with blood.
It is confirmed that Qi Huan, Qin Shuo and others are safe...
Maybe it was because Qi Wenyan was present, so he didn't say anything, he just told them to return to Beijing as soon as possible, and then hurried back to clean up the mess.
At this point, Qin Shuo finally felt completely relieved.
Qi Wenyan stood in the courtyard all night, facing the rising sun at this moment, his face showed a bright and happy expression, and he squinted his eyes.
Qi Huan quietly walked behind him, poking him secretly with his finger: "The emperor of Dacheng secretly came to the frontier army early in the morning, right? He is waiting for the army to break through the blockade of Yanling Pass. Once in a while."
Yu Wencang is a warlike lunatic. He tried countless times over the years but couldn't overcome the blockade of Yanling Pass. It is not surprising that he must want to pass this hurdle by himself.
As for why the opponent died suddenly before the battle, there was no doubt that he was poisoned.
Qi Huan was sure that Qi Wenyan was behind the scenes, but she couldn't ask for details, and she didn't even dare to ask this question.
For some things, it is good for everyone to tacitly agree with each other. If we talk about it...
That would be embarrassing.
After all, although Qi Huan knew that her third uncle was a man with a halo, on the surface he was just a well-behaved civil servant in the middle of the Great Hall, suddenly bursting out with such great energy...
No matter what, it makes people feel unbelievable.
Qi Wenyan, however, was obviously in a good mood, and glanced sideways at her: "My little girl, why are you asking these questions? It's none of your business here. Hurry up and go back to Beijing. If you don't go back, the house will be turned upside down."
Qi Huan didn't dare to let Yang Shi and the others know when he came out. If Yang Shi really found out that they were not in Beijing, the family would indeed be turned upside down.
Qi Huan couldn't get involved in the important affairs of the family and the country, and he didn't have such great ambitions to get involved.
Now that it was confirmed that Da Jin had won a complete victory in the battle of Yanling Pass, there was no surprise, she didn't even bother to ask how Ye Xunyi was doing, and immediately packed up and went back.
Qin Shuo, on the other hand, had not seen his brother for a long time, so he finally came here and insisted on staying for a few more days.
Qi Huan didn't force it either, Wei Feng escorted him and left alone.
As far as the capital is concerned, the emperor has not touched Yunheng, but has asked people to closely monitor his whereabouts, so as not to startle the snake and alert Dacheng's envoys and spies in the capital. There is no way to sing the big drama of inviting the king into the urn.And the emperor also counted the timing, reckoning that there should be no mistakes here, on the same night that Yu Wencang died suddenly, the prince Yun Zhan personally led people to surround Rui Wang's mansion and took Yun Heng down.
When Qi Huan hurried back to the capital, the news of the border city's victory had been received two days earlier in the capital, and everyone from the court to the people was beaming with joy.
Since Qi Wenyan was not in Beijing, Qi Huan went directly to pick up Qi Yuanchen and went home together.
However, the battle situation in the southern border did not stop there. Dajin's army took advantage of the victory and pursued. Taking advantage of the death of Emperor Dacheng in front of the battle, the princes and vassal kings in the Dacheng Dynasty were in chaos, and the morale of the army was greatly reduced...
Sure enough, the soldiers divided into three groups and went south.
Marquis Dingbei, the head coach of the Southern Territory, Yun Cheng, the first princess, and Qin Song, the Marquis of Wucheng, who had just made great achievements, each led a team. The three of them split up and marched southward. It only took more than a month to conquer more than [-]% of the territory of Dacheng. Get it all in your bag.
The surviving members of the royal family of Dacheng retreated to the barren wild land with the temporarily formed small court, and at the same time completely lost the ability to compete with the Dajin court.
Since then, the Great Hajj Dynasty has reached an unprecedented heyday, the region is rich, it deters its neighbors, and it prospers.
After the triumphant return of the army, the Marquis of Dingbei retired, resigned for the second time, and was named Duke of Ding.
The first princess Yun Cheng stayed in the Southern Territory as the head coach.
Wu Chenghou Qin Song, who also made great contributions, was transferred to Ganzhou.
At the end of March, after the world was settled, the emperor issued an edict to abdicate, intending to formally pass the throne to the prince, and he himself retired behind the scenes to become the overlord.
The elderly Ping Guogong was accompanied by his son Gu Zhan back to Beijing to participate in the new emperor's enthronement ceremony, and presided over his grandson's wedding ceremony by the way. He finally ended his decades of military service and prepared to spend his days in Beijing.
Qi Huan inquired about the return date of their party early, and went out of the city to meet them before dawn that day, but met Queen Gu outside the city who also came to pick them up.
Qi Huan was very surprised, but after thinking about it——
If Queen Gu hadn't entered the palace on her own will, the old Duke would have retired from the frontier battlefield twenty years ago. After all these years, Queen Gu must have felt ashamed of him.
Only--
This is another family matter, she is not easy to ask, so she didn't talk too much.
It was Empress Gu who took the initiative to speak: "Speaking of which, from the selfishness of the palace, I should thank you. The death of old Wu Chenghou was always a knot in Wu Chenghou's heart. If you hadn't come forward to replace the old Hou Ye Send him a final letter... Afterwards King Rui and others encouraged him again and again, so maybe he won't turn against him."
Before Qin Yufeng and Yunxiang decided to die in the city, they probably thought that there might be rumors and speculations afterwards, so everyone left a last letter to explain the reasons and benefits of the matter.
Yunxiang's is for the emperor and Empress Gu, who was still the eldest lady of the Gu family at that time, and Qin Yufeng's is for his eldest son Qin Song.
It's just that Qin Song was still young at the time, and the emperor felt that this was a shocking thing, thinking that since everything was safe, there was no need to let him know, so he withheld the letter in his hand, thinking that there must be something wrong. If necessary, there is no need to show it to Qin Song.
It's just that no one thought that Qin Song's thoughts were deep. Although he didn't show it on the surface, he had long been suspicious of his father's death...
In the case that he has already focused on a dead end, in fact, even if the emperor or empress Gu gave him the letter, he may not change his mind, but fortunately, he has special thoughts on Qi Huan, so he left Beijing to join the army at that time Empress Gu had approached Qi Huan before and asked her to come forward and deliver the letter.
In this matter, both of them have their own disgrace.
Empress Gu took advantage of Qi Huan.
And Qi Huan——
It took advantage of Qin Song's feelings for her.
But after all, the result is quite satisfactory, Qin Song finally abandoned his hatred and obsession, and was not bewitched by Yun Heng and Ye Xunyi.
"Wu Chenghou is still a person with principles and bottom lines." Qi Huan didn't want to bring up this old matter again, so he changed the subject: "I heard that His Majesty and His Royal Highness still saved King Rui's life and entrusted him for life. Under house arrest?"
Queen Gu smiled and said, "Your Majesty is soft-hearted."
She didn't say much, and Qi Huan didn't ask too much, but the two of them knew each other well——
Yunheng is not Yunzheng. After Yunzheng escaped from death that time, he was rescued from the fire scene of the imperial mausoleum by Gu Zhan, and he learned his lesson. The idle prince spends his days, but Yun Heng's heart is stronger and his obsession is deeper. The emperor intends to save his life, and he himself is afraid that he will not be able to bear such a lingering life...
But no matter what, before and after countless times, the emperor gave him the opportunity that should be given time and time again, and it was he who insisted on going his own way and refused to turn back.
On this point, he and Ye Xunyi are a perfect match, they both think highly of themselves and have to go the same way to the dark!
Duke Ping Guo returned to Beijing, and the next day he brought Gu Zhan to visit in person as an elder. He came to the Marquis of Changning to discuss with Qi Wenjing and his wife face to face the details of the wedding date of the two children and the wedding.
While they were discussing business in the front hall, Gu Zhan dragged Qi Huan and sneaked out, and asked Jiang Xuan to bring in a small wooden box.
"What are you doing?" Qi Huan felt that it was not polite to leave like this, and couldn't help but look back at the courtyard behind him frequently, "You have already given the betrothal gift, so what is this?"
Gu Zhan had a stern face, but looked unhappy, and said in a firm tone, "I didn't give it to you, but Marquis Wu Cheng asked me to bring it back, saying it was a gift for you and my wedding."
After a pause, he said again: "He won't come back to drink the wedding wine."
When mentioning Qin Song, Qi Huan felt somewhat awkward and guilty.
The smile on her face froze uncontrollably. Seeing that Gu Zhan was still staring at her intently, she also thought it was funny that he was so narrow-minded: "You are curious, why don't you open it first and take a look yourself, and now you are angry at me?" for what?"
The box was unlocked, so Qi Huan opened it without any hassle.
Neatly stacked inside are dozens of account books, and another document.
On the top, there is a piece of strangely shaped old fabric that can't be washed out of its original color.
Qi Huan saw it in his eyes and immediately recognized that it was the half of his sleeve that she had scratched when she stabbed Qin Song.
She didn't explain the origin of this piece of fabric to Gu Zhan, but just handed it to Xing Luo: "Dispose of it."
Then he flipped through the things below, looked at Gu Zhan with a smile on his face, and said, "It was the bargaining chip for me to retire from the Qin family. He returned the business road that my mother ceded to the Qin family. I will not be with him in the future." If there are any more contacts, including letters, he is determined to let go of them completely!"
The relationship between her and Qin Song started with the ownership of this business road, and now it also ends with it, from beginning to end, clean and tidy.
And she and Gu Zhan...
The errands started from the first meeting on the bed, and they echoed from beginning to end!
The main text is over, and there are two small episodes by Qi Yuanchen and Queen Gu. I will delay it for two days, and it is expected to be released on the 31st of the end of the month. Babies have worked hard to follow the article. I love you.
