Chapter 1451 One Thousand Taels Is Not Expensive (16)
"Grass, Xue Qinglian, you are doing well, you sneak attack while I'm not paying attention!"
On the roof, the man stood up slowly, condescending, with a cold aura, "I beat you, do you need a sneak attack?"
"...Are you Qinglian or Heilian? Did you change your face? In disguise?"
"Idiot." The man spat out two words coldly, sat down and drank.
Liu Zhiqiu climbed onto the roof and circled around the man twice, except for a slight change in breath, there was no other abnormality at all.
This bitch will still roll her eyes at him, is that something Hei Lian can do?
"Qinglian? Heilian? Give me an accurate word." He picked Qinglian to beat her.
"Stop spinning, it'll make me dizzy." The man pulled Liu Zhiqiu down with his backhand and kicked him with his toes, "Zhiqiu, tell me, is there any way to know what happened back then?"
"You mean about Qianyi saving you? When she saved you, there were only the two of you there. If you want to know more about it, just ask her if she doesn't."
"I asked."
"She won't tell?"
Xue Qinglian was silent.
That's the default, Liu Zhiqiu stroked his chin, pondering, "Based on my experience, if a woman refuses to tell the truth, there must be something tricky hidden in it. Or...you can plant another fate Gu for yourself? At that time, let's see how she saves you."
"Are you an idiot? Where is I going to get the same life Gu—" The voice stopped abruptly, and Xue Qinglian's eyes flickered.
Patting the man on the shoulder, Liu Zhiqiu groaned, "Pack me a red envelope later, I want a big one. I won't accept it if it doesn't exceed a thousand taels."
"Oh, it's you who don't accept it, it's not that I don't give it." The man got up, patted his buttocks and left, "Sleeping."
"With my help, you can get twice the result with half the effort. Are you sure you don't want to give red envelopes? One thousand taels is not expensive. You are a ghost doctor and a pavilion master. In your eyes, one thousand taels of silver is money? Damn you, a miser!"
Something flew towards him, Liu Zhiqiu reached out to catch it, lightly.
One thousand taels of silver bills.
Liu Zhiqiu was so happy that he chirped on the ticket twice.
In March, at midnight, the moon is bright.
Several figures took advantage of the moonlight to enter the second courtyard of Liu's house, and went straight to Xue Qinglian's bedroom.
Wei Hong and Wei Lanhuo, who had already fallen asleep in the front yard, opened their eyes, looked at each other in the dark, and quickly picked up the weapon on the wall and went out through the window.
"who!"
"stop!"
"Don't chase! Come back! Xue Qinglian——!"
The sound of cold soldiers meeting each other, and the low-pitched scolding sound, spread across the courtyard wall to the small courtyard behind.
Qianyi fell into a drowsy sleep, and when she heard the word Xue Qinglian, she woke up startled, and then heard the clanging of swords, she threw off the quilt, got out of bed, and ran out without even putting on her shoes.
Arriving at the second courtyard, the yard was in a mess, with broken tiles scattered, and the potted plants that the old lady had placed in the yard were also chopped down.
On the roof, several figures fought fiercely, merged into the darkness at an extremely fast speed, and disappeared.
"Qianyi, don't run around, go back to your room and hide, I'll go see if the old man and the old lady are not surprised." Wei Hong didn't follow after her, and ordered Qianyi to go to the front yard immediately.
There is a general in the backyard, and Qin Yi is secretly guarding it, which is much safer than the front yard.
Qianyi nodded indiscriminately, her heart was in a mess, her mind was so empty that she couldn't think of anything.
This is Xinghua Village, where the prince has set up strict protection. Over the years, the village has never entered Xiaoxiao. How could it be that suddenly, someone sneaked into the Liu family compound at this time?
While thinking wildly, Qianyi ran to the place where Liu Muqiu lived. Most of the people with kung fu in the yard went to chase the assassin, so she went to see Mu Qiu. Mu Qiu has a big belly now, if he is startled...
Trying her best to suppress her worries about Xue Qinglian, Qianyi tried to calm herself down and do what she could.
Fortunately, the courtyard here was not affected. Although Liu Muqiu was awakened, but the assassin didn't come here, he was still in good condition.
"Mu Qiu, you stay here, don't run around, your stomach is eight months old now, if bumping into it is not a trivial matter, I'll go outside and have a look, and I'll call you when it's safe."
"Be careful." Liu Muqiu nodded, her face was slightly pale, and there were still wet tears on her cheeks.
"Don't be afraid, they will all come back safely."
Liu Muqiu nodded again, forced a smile, "I'm not afraid, help me to see my grandparents, I just stay here."
"good."
In the front yard, a group of elders were already sitting in the main room, an oil lamp was lit on the table, and the dim yellow light reflected on everyone's faces, all of them were worried.
"Dahong, what's going on? Why would someone sneak into the Liu family compound?"
"Have you visited the backyard? Are the old lady and Mr. Qin all right? Is the little magpie scared?"
Several old people asked one after another, Mrs. Liu was so worried that she got up and went out, "No, I have to go and have a look, otherwise I won't be relieved."
Just as he was about to go out, people came in from outside. It was the empress dowager, Qin Xiao who was holding the baby, and Qin Yi also followed behind them.
"How is it? Are you all right?" Mrs. Liu anxiously went up to meet her.
"Seeing that you are in such a hurry, why don't we stand in front of you? Calm down and sit down." The Empress Dowager frowned, her face was calm, and the aura of being in power came out.
Mrs. Liu sat down obediently, and seeing the Empress Dowager sitting next to her with the little magpie in her arms, she felt relieved a little.
It's just that the frown on the brow still can't be opened, "Who are you talking about breaking into our house? What are they trying to do?"
"I don't know, but the one who can get in without Wei Lan and Wei Hong's eyes and ears must have a strong background."
Wei Hong nodded, and added, "However, I saw that the other party went straight to the second courtyard after entering the courtyard, and did not spread his hands to the front and back yards. I guess the other party came for Xue Qinglian."
"What about Qinglian?" The old woman stood up suddenly, her whole heart aroused.
"Go after the assassin."
"This kid, people came after him clearly, what is he doing chasing after him? Oh, don't let anything happen, he is not young, how can he still be so impulsive?" The old woman's eyes were red with anxiety.
Qian Yi was even more flustered, she was so flustered that she couldn't see things in front of her eyes.
"Old lady, don't worry, Xue Qinglian is good at poison, and she is the owner of the Assassin's Pavilion, and Zhiqiu and Dalan are there to help, those people can't easily hurt him." Wei Hong could only comfort him in this way.
The atmosphere in the entire hall became extremely oppressive.
Mr. Liu walked around the main room several times, looked at Liu Da and Liu Er, "Second brother, go drive the carriage and report to the officials overnight. It will be a lot better if the officers and soldiers come to help. The boss and I will go to the village chief and let the village Every household lights up lamps, summons strong laborers, and beats gongs and drums everywhere in the village! The sound of gongs and drums may scare those people, and give Qinglian Zhiqiu and Dalan some time to breathe."
The villagers don't know kung fu, so he can't ask the unarmed villagers to fight those assassins because he is worried about his children, and let them die in vain. So just ask them to beat the gongs and drums. As for the children at home, they will find them by themselves.
