As soon as Yao Xi left, the audience in the teahouse also went out one after another, and the number of people outside the door quickly increased.After the reputation of Mr. Wanxi's liking for bearded men spread, there were no more little girls who went to Yao Xi, even if it was so, Yao Xi also surrounded many people who greeted her politely.

Meng Li'an inadvertently stood in front of Yao Xi, separating her from the crowd.He didn't know all the small reminders sent by Dongchang, so he couldn't tell how many people came.Fortunately, among the people who came over, he knew a Dongchang fan pretending to be a listener. His surname was Qi and he was from a hundred households. He had seen that person several times in Eunuch Meng's house.

Qi Baihu also saw Meng Li'an and gave him a knowing smile.He was worried that this job would be difficult. Yao Xi had two good eunuchs by his side. No matter how many of them there were, it would not be easy to kidnap Yao Xi without anyone noticing. Right now, he has Eunuch Meng's godson. It would be much easier for Meng Li'an to cooperate inside and outside with Yao Xi.

"Let's not wait for your eunuch and the others. I'll take you back to the palace first!" Meng Li'an knew Dongchang's methods.There are many cars and horses at the entrance of the teahouse, and people are crowded, and any incident will cause chaos.It is very likely that the people from Dongchang will disturb the crowd first, and then take advantage of the chaos to attack Yao Xi. As for whether these people intend to kill Yao Xi or take Yao Xi away, it is unknown.Everyone knew that Yao Xi belonged to the empress dowager, and the people in Dongchang didn't dare to be too blatant. The most urgent thing to do was to get Yao Xi away from the crowd, and then he drove Yao Xi back to the palace himself.

"Okay." Yao Xi was also afraid that the Empress Dowager would be worried again if she went back late, anyway, just leave someone here in the teahouse and wait for the father-in-laws to come back.

Meng Lian protected Yao Xi and walked towards the carriage, wary of everyone who passed by.

Qi Baihu winked at his subordinates, several men in various costumes approached Yao Xi through the crowd, a man reached out and touched a lady who had just left the teahouse, and the lady exclaimed loudly: "Ah! There are hooligans!"

There were quite a few ladies and ladies who came to the teahouse to listen to the opera, everyone felt insecure when they heard this, and rushed back to their carriages in a hurry. At the moment of this chaos, Yao Xi, who was about to get out of the crowd, was swept back into the chaos again crowd.

Meng Li'an only stretched his arms to protect Yao Xi's body. Seeing that Dongchang Fanzi was about to make a move, he grabbed Yao Xi's hand in a panic, dragged her away from the crowd, and sent her to the carriage.

Yao Xi was pushed into the carriage by Meng Li'an, she didn't understand why Meng Li'an was in such a hurry.Could it be that the empress dowager ordered her to be sent back to the palace within two hours? "Brother Li'an, the father-in-law who is driving is still trapped in the crowd and has not followed!"

"I'm driving. Father-in-law is ready!" Meng Li'an lifted up his robe, flew up to the front seat of the carriage gracefully, grabbed the reins and pulled hard, turned the horse's head and galloped towards the palace.

Yao Xi was dumbfounded.Meng Li'an was standing under the car talking to her, but suddenly jumped up, his figure was unbelievably strong.Is she seeing it wrong?Or is Meng Li'an, who looks sick, actually a master of martial arts?It's really strange, Meng Li'an has such kung fu, why was he bullied into such a bear in Ning'an Palace before?

"Brother Li'an, do you know kung fu?" Yao Xi opened the curtain and asked Meng Li'an in surprise.

Meng Li'an didn't have time to talk to Yao Xi, and the people from Dongchang didn't chase after him, probably they took a shortcut and waited to stop him.The evil tiger is also afraid of wolves, no matter how good his kung fu is, he can't stand against the opponent's numbers. Besides, he may not be able to beat Qi alone, and he has no chance of winning in a real fight.

The only possible way to save Yao Xi is to use his relationship with Eunuch Meng to persuade those people to plan on Yao Xi another day.This is also the reason why he hastily dragged Yao Xi on the road instead of the two eunuchs of the Lian family from Ning'an Palace.

Seeing that Meng Li'an was only driving the car without answering, Yao Xi sat back in the carriage bored and hummed a little song.

Meng Li'an had black lines on his face.He was worried to death for Yao Xi's life, but Yao Xi looked carefree and innocent.

"Woo—" Meng Li'an suddenly reined in his horse.

Qi Baihu rode a horse and stood at the entrance of the alley, smiled at Meng Li'an, and beckoned him to go over and talk.When he was at the entrance of the teahouse, he had originally signaled his subordinates to catch Yao Xi in the chaos, but who would have thought that Meng Li'an would dodge left and right to take Yao Xi out of the crowd.

He understood Meng Li'an's difficulties, Meng Li'an was obviously a member of Ning'an Palace after all, so of course he had to put on an air in front of Yao Xi.I'm afraid that Meng Li's saddle is too much, which really ruins his job.He rode a fast horse and took a shortcut to wait here alone, just to discuss with Meng Li'an, see if he should give Yao Xi to him directly?

"Eunuch Yao. I'm going to the street shop to buy something. You sit in the car and wait for me to come back." Meng Li'an got off his horse and walked towards Qi Baihu.He wasn't afraid that Qi Baihu would divert the tiger away from the mountain, and it was impossible for him to lead Yao Xi to break through the siege of the East Factory, so he could only try to persuade these people to do it another day for his sake.

Yao Xi will be fine when he returns to the palace.

Seeing Meng Li'an approaching, Qi Baihu quickly got off his horse and yelled at him: "The factory owner told me to keep a low profile. I was afraid of fighting in the street with the eunuchs in the Empress Dowager's palace. Fortunately, Master Meng accompanied that Yao Xi came out of the palace."

"What does godfather want you to do to Yao Xi?" Meng Li'an stood in the alley talking to Qi Baihu, while anxiously checking if Yao Xi was okay.

Qi Baihu smiled and said: "You know that we are never allowed to tell others about the errands ordered by the factory owner. Eunuch Meng, please go ahead! I'll just ask someone to drive that carriage away."

Meng Lian frowned and said: "Godfather's errands can be done in another day! Yao Xi went out of the palace and I was by my side to wait on him. If the others are gone, how could the Empress Dowager let me go?"

"This—" Qi Baihu was a little embarrassed. "Master Meng's words are not unreasonable..."

Meng Li'an saw a turning point.He thought that Qi Baihu would agree to attack Yao Xi another day, turned his head to check the situation on the other side of the carriage, and saw Qi Baihu suddenly stabbed him in the abdomen with a sword - Meng Li'an dodged and was not in a hurry to be solidified A solid stab with a sword.

"You dare to kill me?" Meng Li'an couldn't believe that Qi Baihu had the guts.

Qi Baihu quickly pulled out the blood-stained sword, took out a handkerchief to cover Meng Li'an's wound, and said very apologetically: "Master Meng is right. If something happened to Yao Xi, if you are fine, the Queen Mother I will definitely not let you go. I didn't stab your vitals, and this move was done as a last resort to save your life—don't blame me!"

"The surname is Qi! You—" Meng Li'an was so painful that he couldn't speak.

Qi Baihu patted Meng Li'an on the shoulder, and was about to go to Yao Xi's side. Just two steps out of the alley, he suddenly turned around and said, "Master Meng! It's too bad!"

Meng Li'an clutched his bleeding abdomen, gasped and asked, "What's wrong?"

"To tell you the truth. The factory owner didn't intend to kill Yao Xi, but he just wanted to use him to discourage the Empress Dowager's interest in Yao Hezheng's case. It would be a bad thing if you were injured!" Qi Baihu slapped his head violently, and hurriedly He took out some silver taels from his pocket and stuffed them into the shocked Meng Li'an, and said thoughtfully: "I don't know if you have enough silver when you go out of the palace. You can use these to buy some medicine! Don't let people see that you are injured. Remember, remember!"

WTF? ? ?

Meng Li'an instantly felt that Dongchang's recruitment was too sloppy, and that a foolish person named Qi could become a hundred households?It's better to finish Dongchang as soon as possible!He supported the wall, endured the pain, took out the dagger hidden in the sleeve, and threw it at Qi Baihu, whose back was facing him.But his hand was trembling with pain, his head was too short, let alone 01:30, and his strength was not enough, the dagger fell limply behind Qi Baihu.

Meng Li'an's vision gradually blurred due to excessive blood loss.That guy surnamed Qi is really an idiot. He said that he didn't stab his vitals, but he did!With hatred for Qi Baihu, Meng Li'an leaned against the wall of the alley and gasped for breath while clutching his wound.

Qi Baihu said that Eunuch Meng didn't intend to kill Yao Xi, but just wanted to use Yao Xi.This shows that Yao Xi's life will not be at stake for the time being, and it may be too late to go back to the palace and tell the Empress Dowager about this matter.

Yao Xi felt that someone stepped on the shaft and climbed into the carriage. He thought it was Meng Li'an who had returned, and asked with a smile, "Have you bought anything?"

Qi Baihu strode into the car, took out the towel prepared early in the morning, covered Yao Xi's mouth, and quickly tied her up.

***

Wan Yu waited and waited for a little fire.

She clearly told Yao Xi repeatedly that no matter what, she must come back within two hours.How long has it been?Looking at the situation, her father-in-law is planning to spend the night outside the palace!

"Your Majesty, the eunuchs who accompanied Eunuch Yao out of the palace are back." The maid replied outside the door.

"Where's Yao Xi? You haven't come back yet?" Wan Yu asked angrily.

Seeing that the master was angry, the palace lady lowered her voice and said timidly: "No. The eunuchs said that the entrance of the teahouse was chaotic, and a young eunuch named Meng Li'an took Eunuch Yao into the carriage and left first."

"I don't know where to go!" Wan Yu was so angry that she clenched the silk in her hand into a ball.

In the afternoon, Wan Yu, who was upset because of Yao Xi's delay in returning home, stuffed tea bags into lotus buds in the back garden, so that the tea leaves would be infused with the fragrance of lotus in the morning.

"Mother, something happened." Aunt Liufang hurried over and said, "The little eunuch surnamed Meng who served Yao Xi is back."

Seeing that Liu Fang was in such a hurry, Wan Yu hurried out of the back garden, and as soon as she walked around, she saw a bloody eunuch lying on the stone steps outside the hall. "Where's Yao Xi?"

Meng Li'an breathed weakly and said: "Eunuch Yao was taken away by the people from Dongchang." Of course he knew what it meant when he said this.He didn't really want Eunuch Meng to die, he just wanted Yao Xi to be safe and sound.Both of them are kind to him, but Yao Xi is the only one who treats him as a person.

Dongchang?Meng Delai?Wan Yu's expression turned cold, and she ordered the maid: "Let the imperial physician enter the palace and show this little eunuch. Liu Fang, follow Ai's family to Qianqing Palace!" She was afraid that Meng Delai would be wronged, so she even sent someone to investigate the evidence of Yao Hezheng's case Now it seems that it is not important whether Yao He was killed by Meng Delai.

Dare to touch Yao Xi?court death!
