Qin Shi: Starting from saving Yan Lingji

Chapter 13

At the moment when he saw the wanted warrant, Zheng Ze's thoughts were not on the sheepskin scroll.

Since Yan Lingji fell into a coma, Zheng Ze rarely let others see Yan Lingji's appearance, and the merchant named Li Da was the same.

It was obviously done very secretly from the beginning to the end, why would he know?

correct!

When a Zhuangzi stopped on the way, I found a peasant woman to wash Yan Lingji's body. Although I stood by the front and back, I was probably noticed when I got on and off the carriage.

These are not important right now, since Li Da knows that he is carrying a criminal from the imperial court, what does the other party mean by sending this arrest warrant?
Thinking about the good, the other party thought that his identity was not simple after talking on the road, so he secretly entrusted a letter to show his goodwill.

But he doesn't like to rely on the outcome of things to expect to develop in a good direction, and he doesn't like to place expectations on others.

Not only Li Da, but also the peasant woman, who also saw Yan Lingji's real face.

Even if Li Da doesn't tell the truth, it will be a matter of time before Han Jun finds this place.

"No, we can't stay here any longer!"

He threw the scroll into the brazier for heating, and then poured the candle into the basin. Hearing the chirping sound, Zheng Ze was full of thoughts, and suddenly thought of a place.

He kept on guard in the room. Although he was highly concentrated, he continued to take medicine for Yan Lingji as usual until night slowly enveloped Xinzheng.

Zheng Ze carried Yan Lingji on his back, and the woman behind her had jet-black hair falling down softly, covering her cheeks, concealing her delicate face.

It was night, a carriage drove out of the post house, heading towards an unknown dark corner.

In the north of the city, the street lights flickered on and off.

The carriage moved forward slowly, but the crisp sound of the horse's hooves treading the ground was regular but abrupt.

The evening wind blows, the corner of the street is silent, and the shadow of the carriage slowly melts into the darkness, being enveloped and swallowed by the night.

"stop!"

On the originally deserted long street, several people suddenly appeared from left and right, blocking Zheng Ze's way.

Since they are dressed in black, night is their color.

Zheng Ze sat in front of the carriage, expressionless, and said lightly: "A person from Qijuetang?"

Hearing this, the person blocking the way did not answer, but said, "Aren't you afraid of encountering ghosts when you travel in the middle of the night?"

Zheng Ze smiled, "I'm worried, the ghost is afraid of meeting me."

"Heh, what a big tone, the front is forbidden, please detour, Your Excellency!"

I don't know if it was Zheng Ze's tone that bluffed people, but the three people on the left and right in front of him didn't seem to be good at it, but they didn't embarrass him too much.

"Forbidden? What I want to go is a place that others can't go to." Zheng Ze said, "I want to see Tang Qi."

When the passerby heard the name, his eyes suddenly sharpened, and he was about to say something when he was interrupted by a voice.

"Hehe, it's been a long time since I've heard you call me old. I'm getting old, and my ears aren't very good."

At this time, a figure holding an umbrella was walking slowly from the front of the carriage from far to near.He has white hair and pale face, but his figure is as tall and straight as a steep cliff piercing into the sky.

"I don't know why this friend is looking for this old man?"

Zheng Ze's heart moved, he didn't expect to see him like this, he pursed his lips, and got off the carriage.

"Take the liberty to come here, I want to discuss a business with Master Qi."

"Business? Haha, interesting. Did my friend find the wrong person? This old man is not in business." Tang Qi said with a smile while holding an umbrella.

But the awe shown by the people around him made him look not as kind as before.

Zheng Ze didn't lose his temper under the opponent's aura, and smiled, "There are many interests in this world, even if you are not a businessman, who can guarantee that you won't make a deal occasionally?"

"Oh? That old man would like to hear more about it."

Zheng Ze stretched out a finger, "Can we talk about destroying the Poison Scorpion Gate within a month?"

As soon as these words came out, both Tang Qi and the surrounding Qijuetang gang members showed incredible expressions.

After a while, Tang Qi's voice came slowly, "This business is not small, friend, are you sure you can handle it?"

"It's my business whether to accept it or not, and it's Qi Ye's business to talk about it or not." Zheng Ze ignored the other party's temptation, no matter what, first stabilize the present, as long as Yan Lingji is awake, there will be a lot of trouble between coming and going. There are plenty of choices.

"So what does the old man need to pay?"

Hearing what he said, Zheng Ze quietly breathed a sigh of relief, "Help me hide someone."

Tang Qi stared, "Who?"

"Han Tingqin committed the crime." Zheng Ze said truthfully, the other party will find out about these things later, there is no need to hide them.

"Hiss, this matter is not easy!" The old man seemed a little embarrassed.

Zheng Ze put his hand on the cross-sill of the carriage, "Whether it can be done or not depends on whether Qiye wants to do it or not!"

"Since you have said so, my friend, then I can only do my best."

……

After leaving the post house, after mutual testing, Zheng Ze finally settled down on the site of Qijuetang.

Anyway, will there be anything for a while.

Sending away the person in charge of helping Qijuetang, he knew that the other party would not go far, but it didn't matter.

Yan Lingji sat down on the edge of the bed where she lay, took a deep breath, and rubbed the space between her eyebrows.

Looking at the woman who was sleeping peacefully from the beginning to the end, Zheng Ze couldn't help saying: "You are comfortable, you saved me again, how do you pay it back?"

"When you wake up and be more self-conscious, you can barely think about promising me with your body."

In a room where no one talks, Zheng Ze said so amusedly.

It's just that he didn't notice that when he turned his head away, the lips of the beauty on the bed moved slightly, and looking at her cheek, it was obvious that she was gnashing her teeth.

When there is no movement outside, Zheng Ze is going to take a break for the time being, and try to gain more trust from Tang Qi tomorrow.

But before he lay down for a long time, he was awakened by a knock on the door, and the next moment the tall old man pushed open the door and walked in.

Zheng Ze got up. He was sleeping with his clothes on. He had nothing to clean up. He just looked at Yan Lingji and covered her more tightly with the quilt.

Tang Qi came in just in time to see this scene, but the look on his face was not very good-looking, and Zheng Ze had a bad premonition in his heart when he saw this.

"Friend, you didn't tell the old man that this prisoner is from Baiyue."

He looked at Yan Lingji lying on the bed, and seemed to recall something from the past.

Zheng Ze's eyes flashed, and he instantly understood the purpose of Li Tang Qi's trip. He had participated in the conquest of Baiyue...

"She's just an unarmed and fragile woman, and being born in Baiyue is something she can't decide, so Qi Ye wouldn't visit late at night for this, right?"

As soon as things were discussed on the front foot, the back foot made troubles. It was not very pleasant to say.

"Do you know how many Baiyue people have been killed by the old man on the Baiyue battlefield, and now he still has to provide shelter for the Baiyue people?"

Zheng Ze had a headache. It stands to reason that Tang Qi shouldn't be so attached to Baiyue, unless he knows more...

For a moment, he was also a little uncertain about the other party's thoughts.

At this moment, a charming and indifferent voice sounded, "Oh? I really want to know how many Baiyue people you killed back then."
