Qi Xuanliang made it clear that the coachman was his and would act according to his instructions.

No wonder they could let the coachman go back alone with confidence, and then he could lie for them covered in blood.

After finishing speaking, the room fell into silence.

The light of the candle flickered, and Yan Ruyu gently touched the heart of the candle with the dagger in her hand.

The warm candlelight reflected the smooth lines of her face, which did not feel warm, but instead made her look a bit colder due to the light of the knife.

"Finished?"

Song Qingyao bit her lips hard and whispered: "That's what happened. I don't know who you two are. If you were sent by the Qi family, then I will go back with you. I just want to let my husband go."

"Ayao," Qi Xuanliang held her hand firmly, "No, we have to go back together."

"If I go back, he can't do anything to me. The most serious thing is a family meal. Anyway, I have nothing to be afraid of, but you are different. If you go back, I'm afraid you won't have a chance to come out again."

Song Qingyao's eyes turned red: "I don't want to see you being tortured to death like the second master. My husband and parents-in-law are gone. Before my mother-in-law passed away, she told me to take good care of you. I can't watch you die."

"Then can I watch you die?" Qi Xuanliang gritted his teeth, "Ayao, you are my wife, the one I want to grow old with."

Yan Ruyu interrupted them: "Which one of you came up with this idea?"

"It's me!" Qi Xuanliang took the lead, "If you have any trouble, just go to me. It's none of A Yao's business."

Yan Ruyu glanced at Song Qingyao and then at Qi Xuanliang, knowing what she was doing.

"Then, what happened to your medicine truck and the dead servant guarding the hospital?" Huo Changhe asked.

Song Qingyao lowered his head, and Qi Xuanliang sighed: "This is probably fate. I originally planned to turn over and keep the medicinal materials, so that we can help others in the future.

Unexpectedly... the bandits actually came. I was very lucky at that time. I was frightened and injured, so I fainted. When I was in a daze, I heard them say that they were from Heiguan Village. "

"When I woke up again, I had been rescued," Qi Xuanliang recalled the scene at that time. "They asked me where I was from. I didn't want to tell me at first, but I was afraid that they would get suspicious, so I told them, and then asked me if I wanted to give it to my family. Write a letter and I’ll say no.”

"Because I have made an agreement with Ayao to tell her the news of my being robbed in the evening."

It turned out to be the case.

"Then you can see clearly how many people are robbing and killing you, and how they are dressed?" Yan Ruyu asked.

Qi Xuanliang thought for a while: "There are about a dozen of them, riding horses, wearing cloaks, and their faces are covered with black cloth, so they can't see clearly."

"However, they are really ruthless in their attacks, very much like gangsters."

Yan Ruyu took a look at the clothes they put on the side table. She probably didn't have time to get into the wardrobe, because the clothes were all placed on the side table.

"Aren't you planning to take the children with you?"

"Luo'er has always been pampered," Song Qingyao said with a wry smile, "The conditions here are difficult, not as good as a big house, and there are not many people around. She will only cry when she comes. We thought we would hide away for a while and wait until the limelight is over. Think of a way out, and then find a way to get her out."

This rhetoric was exactly what Yan Ruyu and Huo Changhe had expected.

Yan Ruyu thought thoughtfully: "Why is your daughter so close to her second wife, Yan?"

Song Qingyao's eyes turned red when this matter was mentioned, and Qi Xuanliang was also angry.

"Huh, Mrs. Yan is a restless person. She usually stirs up troubles everywhere. If it weren't for A-Yao's generosity, there would have been no peace in the back house! She lost her own child, so she often came to see our daughter."

"Every time A-Luo made a mistake, A-Yao disciplined her, and Mrs. Yan stood by to protect her. A-Yao was not in good health, and Mrs. Yan was fast-talking and aggressive. She often took A-Luo to her courtyard. Over time,..."

"When I take my daughter out later, I must teach her well myself!"

He spoke with anger and excitement, but he really looked like an angry father.

"What kind of child did she lose?" Yan Ruyu was curious.

"It's a boy," Qi Xuanliang sighed. "It is indeed a bitter person. When she produces it, she is difficult to give birth. Qi Jingliang is not at home. At that time, there was an outer room.

She was probably angry because the fetus was not in a very low position and it took a long time to give birth, which almost cost her her life. "

"If it weren't for the medicine and doctors at Qi's house, it's hard to say whether she would have survived. After she recovered, she really showed off her power for more than a year because she gave birth to a son.

But then the child was lost, and she became depressed for a while, and then she started to have ideas about our daughter. "

Yan Ruyu paused for a moment and asked, "What does her son look like?"

Qi Xuanliang was stunned: "This...I don't know very well. When the child was very young, he rarely went out of the yard. When he was more than one year old, I saw him a few times, that is, on New Year's Day, and celebrating his first birthday. In fact, No impression."

Yan Ruyu nodded slowly and asked: "Qi family, besides Mr. Qi, have you ever had any doubts about anyone else? I'm afraid he himself can't do such a big thing, right?"

Qi Xuanliang and Song Qingyao looked at each other and shook their heads.

"We don't know exactly how."

Song Qingyao frowned and said: "There was a chaos in front of the door this morning, and it is said that the county government was alerted. Fortunately, I came out quickly. If I were one step later, I would have been locked up at home."

"It's probably related to his incident," Song Qingyao said bitterly, "Retribution!"

Yan Ruyu originally wanted to ask if they had ever discovered that there were other people in the Qi family, maybe Mr. Mo, or some strange person.

The place that interfered with the space between her and the abbot was still not found.

However, it seems that they don't know either.

Having nothing else to ask, Yan Ruyu stood up.

Song Qingyao bit her lip: "Are you taking me back?"

Yan Ruyu said calmly: "Not for the time being, but whether your words are true or false, we cannot accept one side of the story. After the matter is found out, we will make a decision."

Qi Xuanliang asked hesitantly: "Who are you? People from the government?"

Huo Changhe nodded and simply passed the blame: "Yes, it was the county magistrate who asked us to investigate in secret."

Qi Xuanliang was a little scared: "If you have any questions, just come at me. It's none of A Yao's business. We didn't hurt anyone, and we didn't want to harm anyone. We just wanted to protect ourselves."

According to what they said so far, it was indeed the case, which was why Yan Ruyu and Huo Changhe did not make things difficult for them.

The two of them didn't speak, turned around and left the hospital.

Not far away, two secret guards saluted and secretly stared at the small courtyard.

Not being embarrassed doesn't mean you have full faith, nor do you let it go.

Huo Changhe saw Yan Ruyu's words and asked, "What are you thinking?"

"Your Majesty, I want to verify something."

"what's up?"

"We have to go back to Qi Mansion."

"Okay, I'll accompany you."
