Rudonghai

Chapter 213 Coercion
Gu Yunxiao's eyes were slightly red, and he covered her eyes with his hands, looked at Xueyan's smiling lips, and murmured: "Those thieves, I will let them pay with blood, and I will never let your sacrifice be in vain!"

She stood up and looked at Xiao Yi: "Auntie should be taken captive to the palace and threatened Uncle. Or she was hidden elsewhere so that Uncle can't move."

Xiao Yi pondered for a while, then replied: "This subordinate thinks it will be the latter."

If Mrs. Zhen Guohou is there, it may not be possible for others to succeed, but for the sake of Zhen Guohou, she may be the first to act first and sacrifice herself.

Gu Yunxiao frowned, she thought the same way, the other party might not have thought of it.

If this is the case, the aunt took the lead in seeking death in order not to implicate Zhen Guohou, and the uncle didn't know about it and was kept in the dark. Wouldn't he be restrained all the time and let him manipulate him?

Qiu Hong asked: "Madam, why don't you go to the palace to find the young master and let him think of a way."

Almost all the Xiao Jiawei left in the Xiao Mansion were injured.Now if they face to face with the masked man, they will have no chance of winning.

Fearing that these people would turn back, Qiu Hong wished she could send Gu Yunxiao to Xiao Xilin's side immediately, so she could feel at ease.

But Gu Yunxiao shook his head: "Don't go to the palace for the time being, so as not to startle the snake. The masked man hasn't returned for a long time, and the other party won't find out for the time being."

She is just a mere one, and the other party will definitely not think that the masked man will miss.

The thief underestimated the enemy and gave himself a chance to breathe.

"Find my aunt first, and if you don't hurry up, I'm worried that my aunt will have an accident." Gu Yunxiao prayed in his heart that no accident should happen to Madam Zhen Guohou, and he must wait until she finds her.

"Xiao Yi, where do you think Lord Ji will hide aunt?"

As soon as the words came out, Qiu Hong and Xiao looked at each other, and they almost said in unison: "An Guo Hou Mansion!"

The most dangerous place is the safest place, no one would have thought that Madam Zhen Guohou would be invited to such an obvious place as the Hou Mansion.

Gu Yunxiao nodded: "The guards in An Guohou's Mansion must be stricter than before. How many remaining Xiao Jiawei can still be used?"

There were too many injured Xiao Jiawei who were attacked by masked men just now.Although they were all willing to sacrifice for the Xiao Mansion, Gu Yunxiao was not happy that these loyal people would risk their lives.

Xiao Yi understood what she meant, and muttered: "Master left ten people behind, and now three of them are seriously injured and have not yet woken up. One injured his legs and feet, making it difficult to move, and one injured his hands and back. For the time being, only five are available."

This still does not include Qiuhong and Qiulu, the two maids are not good at hand, but they are brave enough and have hidden weapons to defend themselves.But the sneak attack just now has almost used the hidden weapon.

Gu Yunxiao frowned, it was simply fantastic for five people to infiltrate An Guohou's mansion unscathed and rescue Mrs. Zhen Guohou's wife.

But time waits for no one, the longer it drags on, she may never see Mrs. Zhen Guohou again.

This lady treats herself very well, just like her own daughter. Whether she helps prepare the dowry or fights for Gu Yunxiao, in her heart, she has long been an elder like a mother to Mrs. Zhen Guohou.

Gu Yunxiao can't just watch Mrs. Zhen Guohou being threatened, let alone let her have the slightest mistake.

Zhen Guohou and Xiao Xilin were not there, and there were only a few people present who could save Zhen Guohou's wife.

Xiao Yi said firmly: "No matter how many people die, this subordinate will definitely rescue Madam Zhen Guohou."

"Don't say such unlucky words at the beginning, there are few people, we can't fight head-on, we can only outsmart." Gu Yunxiao turned his head, there was no chance to change the dress on his body, and his cheeks were still stained with mud. This Mrs. Xiao did not The usual brilliance looks a little dirty, but there is no timidity or retreat in the eyes.

"You are from the Xiao Mansion, and you are your husband's right-hand man. Don't go to death easily. Besides, dying at the hands of thieves for the sake of a mere villain is really taking advantage of them, but wronging you."

Gu Yunxiao thought for a while, and his brows gradually relaxed: "An Guohou's Mansion is too big, we only have so few people, it is impossible to search every corner, we need someone who is familiar with the Marquis' Mansion."

Qiu Hong's eyes rolled: "Ma'am, are you going to the Hou's mansion to arrest a servant to ask?"

Hearing this, Gu Yunxiao laughed: "The servants are all responsible for their own one-acre three-point land. They may be familiar with the Hou's mansion, but it is impossible to know all the places. Especially the master's forbidden land, how can a servant be able to Set foot?"

Qiu Lu thought of someone: "Ma'am, the Buddhist hall of the Hou Mansion is at the back, and the eldest girl of the Ji family is still confined inside."

It's been a few months, and Ji Qingrou hasn't finished copying thousands of copies of the female tame, so naturally she won't be released.

Especially at this critical moment, An Guohou couldn't think of her, Mrs. Hou was unconscious, Ji Jiaqian couldn't protect herself, and Ji Keran was concerned about her own ambition and great cause. Who would remember this cousin?

Gu Yunxiao nodded: "That's right, Miss Ji is the best choice. The Buddhist hall is far away from the Hou's mansion, and the guards are not too strict. Most of them are women and maidservants. Xiao Jiawei can arrest people quickly when he enters."

"It's just that Miss Ji is willing to cooperate with Madam?" Qiu Hong couldn't help worrying. Ji Qingrou had a problem with Gu Yunxiao before, and she was involved in copying female tame, and she hated Madam Zhen Guohou even more. How could she help?
"It's not impossible to convince her." Gu Yunxiao stroked Hai Dongqing on her shoulder, and said with a smile, "I'll sneak into An Guohou's mansion with you later, and I'll convince Miss Ji."

"Think twice, madam!" Qiu Hong and Xiao Yi were anxious. They had no choice but to let Gu Yunxiao take risks just now. How can they let her go to An Guohou's mansion now?

If he was captured by mistake, I am afraid that Gu Yunxiao will be dragged in before Mrs. Zhen Guohou can be rescued.

"Are you not confident in yourself, or in me?" Gu Yunxiao shook his head, making up his mind: "Don't worry, I still hope to live a good life with my husband and children, and I won't put myself in danger. There is a [-]% certainty that Miss Ji can be persuaded."

"Then what about the remaining [-]%?" Qiu Lu asked suddenly after hearing this.

Gu Yunxiao sighed, looking at the still dark sky, said quietly: "That's God's will."

But how could she give up half the chance of success?

Either persuade Ji Qingrou, or this girl Ji yelled loudly, alarming the guards and taking them down.

Gu Yunxiao had no other choice, she signaled: "Time is running out, so there is no need to say more."

Qiu Lu was injured, so she stayed directly in Xiao's residence, so as to respond to Xiao Xilin's message, so as not to worry the young master.

Qiuhong insisted on following Gu Yunxiao, and kept to her side no matter what she said.

Gu Yun couldn't resist her, so he had no choice but to agree.

Xiao Yi and the others protected Gu Yunxiao and sneaked all the way to An Guohou's mansion smoothly.

There are many guards nearby, and a faint smell of blood comes from all directions.This is the place where important officials of the imperial court live. I am afraid that Ji Keran will attack the family members of these ministers first.

I didn't know that Ji's mansion secretly raised so many disciples, all of them were strong in martial arts and good at sneak attacks.If he hadn't taken it lightly, Gu Yunxiao would have been captured alive and become one of the hostages.

The Buddhist hall is at the back of the Hou's mansion, and the guards are not as many as those at the front.

Xiao Yi knocked unconscious a maidservant who was similar in stature to Gu Yunxiao, and another maidservant who was alone. Qiuhong stripped off the dress, and the two hurriedly put it on.

After dressing up in disguise, Gu Yunxiao was about to go in and said: "If I haven't come out in a quarter of an hour, you go in. Remember, no matter what the situation is, capturing Miss Ji alive is the top priority."

Xiao Yi solemnly responded, and said in a deep voice: "Madam, take care, and Qiuhong should not leave Madam's side."

"Yes, I swear to protect Madam to the death." Qiu Hong solemnly swore a poisonous oath, and then slowly walked towards the courtyard behind Gu Yunxiao.

"Who?" The mother-in-law saw the two of them from a distance, vaguely guessed it, and said with a smile, "You girl, why have you been away for so long? The girl just asked. Come in quickly, or I'm afraid there will be nothing good to eat."

Ji Qingrou was known for her temper, and the maid was not willing to join her in front of her.

It's a pity that these two maids have just entered the mansion not long ago, and they are not as well-established as Jiashengzi, so they were naturally pushed to the front.

Gu Yunxiao didn't dare to make a sound, lest the other party realize something was wrong, so he just lowered his head and quickly walked past them, and behind him he could faintly hear the mother-in-law muttering: "Why do you think Xianglian looks good?"

The other woman didn't take it seriously: "It's pitch black everywhere, and there are no lanterns, you're dazzled again, hurry up and have a drink, it's really cold, unfortunately, it's our turn to watch the night..."

It turned out that the maid's name was Xianglian, Gu Yunxiao remembered it, and was relieved that the mother-in-law didn't recognize her.

The two of them probably drank a lot and were a little tipsy, so they lost their previous vigilance.

What Ji Keran is doing up front, this quiet courtyard probably hasn't received any news.It's unavoidable to leak the news, I'm afraid that even the family's child will not be able to detect what's wrong.

Gu Yunxiao saw that a wing room was still lit, and walked over.

Seeing that there were no other servants around, except for the two night watchmen outside, Qiu Hong couldn't help but feel happy.

There was a small stack of thick rice paper piled up in front of the table in the room, and Ji Qingrou, who was sitting in front of her, had lost a lot of weight, her face was haggard, and she was throwing the brush on the ground in displeasure, and stepped on it twice.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, she said without raising her head: "Why did Xianglian come back, where did he die? Hurry up and help me grind the ink, I've had enough of this damn female tame..."

Before she could speak, Ji Qingrou felt a sharp chill on her neck, and swallowed the rest of her words in shock: "It's you? Why did you come in here? Where are the people outside?"

"Don't worry, the people outside are fine. Now that sister Rou can be quieter, I won't make it difficult for you." Gu Yunxiao stood in front of the table, watching Qiuhong firmly lay a dagger on Ji Qingrou's neck , as long as a little force, the delicate skin can draw a bloody mouth.Ji Qingrou quickly calmed down from the panic just now, raised her eyelids, and snorted coldly: "Why, why don't you stay in Xiao's mansion and come to Hou's mansion to do something, just to see you for a long time, third sister misses me ?”
