【Kuan Xin】Snake and Venom

Chang Yi made such a fuss, it was already the third watch, but the six of them didn't feel sleepy, they gathered around the main hall to discuss matters.

Yuan Zhongxin asked: "How is everything going, old thief?"

Xiaojing nodded and replied: "Successful, the three of us came back after watching Brother An get into the carriage arranged by the old thief. It is estimated that we have settled down in Xiyuan by now."

On the way back to the Secret Pavilion from Xiyuan, Yuan Zhongxin detoured to Wazi to find the old thief, and asked him to prepare a humble carriage and park it in the alley two streets away from the back gate of the Forbidden Army camp. The car drove directly to Xiyuan.

Xue Ying said: "And the clues of An Lijiu leaving Kaifeng have all been forged, just wait for Chang Yi to investigate."

Wei Yanei suddenly remembered something, and asked curiously: "Yuan Zhongxin, what did you put in that case book, why did Brother An want to escape from prison?" Didn't he just want to die?

Yuan Zhongxin asked back: "Didn't you open it?"

Wei Yanei shook his head: "I was afraid that something would happen, so I took it out and stuffed it directly to Tian Hu, and I dare not open it."

Yuan Zhongxin smacked his lips and said nonchalantly, "It's just a sweat towel from Sister Suyi."

The five people glanced at him subtly.

As smart as Yuan Zhongxin, he naturally knows what they are thinking. A sweat towel is a personal thing for a woman. If it is not her husband, other people are not allowed to touch it at will-he explained helplessly: "I just asked Sister Suyi to give it to me. A symbol that can show her identity, I originally wanted to get the Nine Lives Lock, but it was too easy to expose, so I asked her for a sweat towel."

Zhao Jianjian supported his chin with his hands, and said thoughtfully: "You said that if that guy Chang Yi found out that the clues were fake, in a fit of rage, would he go door to door in order to find An Lijiu?"

Wang Kuan thought for a while and said: "Probably not. In this way, the movement will be too loud, and it will be easy to leak out the news that they have worked so hard to suppress. If there is someone on Chang Yi's head, that person will definitely not let Chang Yi out." act rashly."

Xue Ying also agreed with this point of view: "On the contrary, as Liang Dutou said, it is more likely to send people to follow us."

Yuan Zhongxin stared slightly, and said: "We will go to Xiyuan tomorrow, but we can't go all the way, we must leave someone to guard Qizhai—Zhao Jian, Xue Ying, you stay in Qizhai tomorrow, if Lin Liang comes to the door, An Lijiu's escape from prison must be kept secret."

Otherwise, according to Lin Liang's impulsive temperament, something might happen.

Zhao Jian and Xue Ying nodded immediately.

Xiaojing was a little worried: "But if the people from Changdutou really follow us, aren't they afraid that they will find Xiyuan?"

Just as Yuan Zhongxin was about to speak, a violent cough interrupted him. He put his fists against his mouth, coughing so much that he almost wanted to force tears.

Wang Kuan's expression froze, and he quickly patted Yuan Zhongxin's back to help him calm down, and said, "Xiaojing, pour him a cup of tea."

Xiaojing quickly poured a cup of tea and handed it to Yuan Zhongxin. The latter took a big gulp, moistened his lungs, and made his cough stop slowly, but his complexion was slightly flushed. .

Wang Kuan frowned, and his tone was tense: "Yuan Zhongxin, what's wrong with you?"

Yuan Zhongxin waved his hand indifferently: "It's nothing, it should be because of getting angry again."

Wang Kuan didn't believe it, and said solemnly, "Xiaojing, feel his pulse." He originally wanted to do it himself, but Xiaojing is more authoritative than him in terms of medical theory.

Xiao Jing gently tapped the side vein of Yuan Zhongxin's left hand, held his breath, and said within a short while, "Brother Wang, don't worry, Brother Yuan is really just because of getting angry. I will make some soup and medicine at that time."

Yuan Zhongxin patted Wang Kuan on the shoulder, signaling him to rest assured: "Look, let me just tell you, don't I know about my own body?" He changed the subject and said what he had just interrupted: " In the first few days, Chang Yi only cared about following the clues, and he didn't have the time to take care of us."

After all, An Lijiu escaped from prison under the custody of the Jilin Army. If the court finds out about it and blames it, the situation will be very serious. It is better to have clues than to fly around like a hooded fly, so Chang Yi will probably put all her heart and soul into it. That group of old thieves specially found someone to forge the clues.

What's more, if they really found out that they were being followed, the anti-tracking technique they learned from the Yuejun Academy class was not just for fun.

At the same time, the Forbidden Army camp was brightly lit. Chang Yi sat in his study with a gloomy expression. The more he thought about the humiliation he had just suffered in Qizhai, the more angry he was. All of them were thrown to the ground, and in an instant, the ground was in a mess.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and Chang Yi shouted impatiently, "What are you doing?"

A voice came in a low voice: "Chang Dutou, that adult said he wants to see you."

Chang Yi immediately stood up, the anger on his face subsided in an instant, panicked, he quickly said: "Go and invite him in!"

Not a moment later, a man in a black robe with a black cloth pinned to his face walked in casually. Chang Yi hurriedly stepped forward to cover the door in trepidation, then bowed respectfully to the man and said, "My lord, come late at night." Here, what's the matter?"

The man called an adult didn't even look at Chang Yi, he stepped straight on the pile of messy things on the ground, sat leisurely in Chang Yi's seat, and cast a glance at Chang Yi, his eyes seemed to be poisoned, screaming Frightened, the man suddenly said, "I heard that An Lijiu escaped from prison under your supervision?"

The man's voice was unexpectedly high-pitched, with no emotion or anger in his tone, and the ending was slightly raised, picking out the fear in Chang Yi's bones. He lowered his head and tried to calm down: "My lord, calm down, this time It was the little one who fell for Yuan Zhongxin, a traitor, and I have already ordered someone to investigate urgently..."

The man stretched out his hands, crossed his fingers, supported his chin, and said slowly, "Angry? Why am I angry?"

Chang Yi was taken aback for a moment, but still didn't dare to look up at the man. He asked puzzledly, "Aren't you angry, sir?"

The man sneered: "Why should I be angry, but I don't pay attention to the little An Lijiu."

Chang Yi hesitated to speak: "But An Lijiu has..."

The man casually interrupted Chang Yi's words, his eyes were slightly vicious, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised: "Chang Yi, have you forgotten the task assigned by Madam Cha? The case of An Lijiu is handed over to Yuan Zhongxin, isn't it? In order to find out the truth, it’s just a dog that was let out to play games because the guy above was so bored—you don’t really think that you are competing with Yuan Zhongxin, do you? Are you worthy?”

Chang Yi's heart jumped violently when he heard it, and trembling slightly while suppressing his voice, he replied, "I don't dare."

The man raised his eyebrows, and the warning in his tone was self-evident: "That's good, Chang Yi, don't forget who gave you the head of the Jilin Army, I know you can't wait to send Yuan Zhongxin Cut to pieces, but you have to remember that with your status, you are not worthy of being Yuan Zhongxin's enemy. If one day you are eager for quick success and quick profit and are forced to get rid of Yuan Zhongxin, and because of this, you have angered the person above, let alone I, even Cha Mama can't save you."

Chang Yi felt that she was sweating profusely on her forehead, and her whole body was wrapped in a biting cold air. She nodded nervously in response, not even daring to breathe too clearly, for fear that she would offend the man if she was careless.

The man looked at Chang Yi, who was too frightened to speak out because of his few words, and was very disgusted in his heart. He withdrew his eyes with great disgust, got up and came to Chang Yi: "My words have been brought, can't you hear me?" It's up to you to be able to listen." Then, as if he felt that he would feel suffocated if he stayed for a moment longer, he opened the door and left without hesitation.

As soon as the man left, the oppressive chill in the room disappeared instantly.

Chang Yi, who was terrified and terrified, was relieved until he couldn't see the man's dark figure at all. He looked out the door angrily, gritted his teeth, and said bitterly, "Yuan Zhongxin, you're lucky!"

At the hour of the next day, except for Zhao Jian and Xue Ying who stayed at Qizhai, the other four went to Xiyuan. In order not to arouse unnecessary suspicion, Su Yi still had to sing the play three times a day, but it was still a coincidence that they went, Yuan Zhongxin and the others just arrived when the stage was closed.

The servants who greeted Yuan Zhongxin and the others recognized them before, and Su Yi had also ordered that if these children came, there was no need to inform them, just let them go into the backyard.

As soon as Yuan Zhongxin and the others entered the backyard, they were startled by An Lijiu's comfortable and calm appearance. They slept lazily on the bench, basking in the winter sun and drinking tea, feeling very leisurely.

An Lijiu seemed to sense the arrival of the four of Yuan Zhongxin, opened his eyes, and said with a smile: "Oh, here you come, sit down, why are you standing there?"

Four people: "..."

Yuan Zhongxin raised his eyebrows: "Why, wasn't someone yelling and accusing him of all the crimes before? After escaping from prison, he knows how to enjoy life?"

An Lijiu had a hippie smile: "That's natural. Now that I think about it, I think it's pretty good to live like this."

Yuan Zhongxin narrowed his eyes, and said dumbly: "Then you really thank us, if the six of us hadn't figured out a way, where would you have come to live like this?"

An Lijiu blinked, and said obediently, "Thank you all."

Yuan Zhongxin: "..."

Why does this sound like a curse?

Wang Kuan and the others were quite surprised, and looked back and forth between Yuan Zhongxin and An Lijiu with full interest.

After a long life, Yuan Zhongxin has met his opponent in the field of cursing and bickering.
