Wake up from different people's homes

Chapter 49 Wake Up From My Concubine's Bed (2)

Qin Shuang didn't answer, Ye Si just took her as the default.It is actually an easy thing to want to leave, but the problem is where to go after leaving Jinyi Yushi?How to avoid being hunted down by people from the Hou's Mansion or the Xiang's Mansion?How to make a living?This all requires a careful plan.However, before Ye Si was ready, the news of Changle Hou Xiaoming's defeat came from the frontier, and the people in the mansion were panicked all of a sudden.There are not a few people who have been involved in the whole family because of the defeat of the army. If the emperor wants to get rid of this thorn in his side and charge him with crimes such as collaborating with the enemy and traitor, things will be very bad.

He didn't see Qin Shuang again for several days in a row. Ye Si walked briskly to the courtyard where Qin Shuang was located when he was free for a while.The dense bamboo forest is dense, and the emerald green dark path reveals a cool atmosphere.As soon as he got close, he could hear a few words, but they couldn't really hear them from a distance.Ye Si was startled, hid his body in the bamboo bushes, and secretly went to see the speaker.

It was a man in black, who seemed to have had an argument with Qin Shuang, and there was anger in his suddenly raised voice. Ye Si could hear the words "You take care of yourself" clearly.The man possessed martial arts, and disappeared from sight after a few jumps, leaving only Qin Shuang standing under the peach tree with a gloomy expression.Ye Si hid for a while, then patted off the dust and bamboo shavings on his clothes, and walked slowly towards the yard.

"Are you ready to leave the Hou's Mansion?" Ye Si looked nonchalant, his eyes sometimes fell on the colorful fallen flowers on the ground, and sometimes fell on the side of the well fence in the corner, but he didn't dare to look at Qin Shuang's expression.

"Leave? Where can I escape?" Qin Shuang's expression was half a smile, and she took a step forward.The slightly cool fingertips landed on Ye Si's chin and gently raised it.Facing the pair of eyes that were somewhat confused and somewhat kind, he asked again, "Where did you escape to? Where else can you escape to?"

Did she repent?Is it unwilling to escape or has nowhere to escape?Ye Si frowned, and took a step back to avoid Qin Shuang's hand. "The news of Xiao Ming's defeat came from the frontier. I don't know if it's true or not."

Qin Shuang replied flatly: "I thought you were the wife of the Hou Mansion, and would live and die with this Changle Hou Mansion."

Ye Si gave Qin Shuang a strange look, and asked, "Will you die for a stranger?" To the original owner, he was considered a husband, but to her, Ye Si, the so-called Xiao Ming just existed. An unclear image in my mind is undoubtedly related to a stranger.As for the Xiangfu, if they don't come, they don't bother to contact them.

"No." Qin Shuang chuckled, hiding the glint in his eyes.

In the late spring, the catkins were flying, and the people who stumbled into the Hou's mansion brought bad news.Xiao Ming led a thousand remnant soldiers to surrender to the enemy country. It was just a guess at first, but now it has become a reality.The emperor was furious and lay dead for hundreds of miles.In his eyes, the lives of dozens of people in the Hou Mansion are nothing.With one order, all the people in the Hou's mansion will be put in prison and beheaded for public display.At dusk, the rosy clouds burning in the sky suddenly looked like fire.

No one wants to have anything to do with traitors, colleagues who usually have a good relationship are now just wooden people, even the high-ranking Prime Minister is unwilling to say more.It's just that he dotes on his daughter, and sent her to the Hou's mansion with all his heart, how can he watch her die now?The attendants of the Xiang's mansion hid in the dark under the twilight, and set fire to the wing room, illuminating the sky that was gradually sinking into the darkness like daytime.

"Wait." Looking at the fierce flames, Ye Si whispered to the silent guard that she must take Qin Shuang with her.Holding the hem of her skirt, she ran into the bamboo forest, and the courtyard was empty except for an empty wine jar on the stone table, the door was half-closed, and there was no one on the couch that Qin Shuang leaned on on weekdays.Ye Si felt anxious, and rushed into the house to search for it.

"What are you doing?" Qingling's voice came from behind, and she turned her head to see the face without a smile.The beauty came out of the bath, dripping water from her hair, soaking her plain white clothes.Ye Si was stunned for a moment before regaining his senses, covered his lips and coughed lightly: "Someone is coming from the Xiangfu, you follow me. My father dare not take me back to the Xiangfu, but we can use him to get out of the city. As long as we leave Kyoto, we will be safe."

"Really?" The ending sound rose slightly, and there was a bit of frivolity in the cold eyebrows and eyes, "Then let's go."

The spreading fire seemed to engulf the entire Marquis Mansion, and the mansions on the same street might be implicated. It didn't take long before the Jinwu Guards patrolling the city rushed over, and almost everyone's eyes were on this inexplicable incident. On the big fire, two people were not noticed quietly slipping away from the corner door.

The emperor's imperial edict has not been officially handed down yet, and the supervision of the Hou's Mansion is extremely lax.Perhaps it was because Xiao Ming was not in the mansion, so he didn't pay attention to the group of old and weak women and children.The carriage stopped at an inn outside the city, and the coachman took out a letter and a bank note from his pocket, handed them to Ye Si, and walked away.My cheap father is really thoughtful, where so-and-so used to be a guest of the Prime Minister's mansion, and he can go to seek refuge, and he remembers it clearly, but these things are nothing to Ye Si who wants to escape. usefulness.

"Freedom." Looking at the flickering candlelight in the night, Ye Si sighed softly.

"No." Qin Shuang raised the corners of his mouth a little coldly, "This is just the beginning."

"Huh?" Ye Si raised his eyebrows, a little puzzled.

"The chase has just begun. Of course, it's not from the emperor's chase." Qin Shuang looked at Ye Si with a vicious mockery in his eyes, "This is the path you chose, and you have no chance to retreat."

The main task has not been completed. It seems that the Hou Mansion is not Qin Shuang's prison, so what is it?If she had imprisoned herself in the prison of her heart, how could she help her to escape?This task, which was thought to be simple, suddenly became complicated. His hand was pressing on his temple, and he was feeling bored, when his wrist was suddenly grabbed. "Let's go!" A low shout came to my ears, and the remaining warm breath tickled my restless heart.

The narrow corridor of the inn seemed to go forever, and when the door was opened with a creak, it was only a moment before he suddenly realized.The temperature on the wrist suddenly disappeared, leaving only a small red mark, and I felt a little bit lost in my heart.Following Qin Shuang into the house, she was relatively speechless and could only fall into silence.

"I can leave the Hou's Mansion anytime and anywhere, but I went there for temporary refuge." Qin Shuang lit up the candle and said calmly, "I never thought that the disaster of the Hou's Mansion would come so soon."

"Who are you?" Ye Si asked in a low voice.The words "orphan girl" and "weak girl" are definitely not suitable for Qin Shuang.

"A terrible person." Qin Shuang smiled lowly, and when she raised her head, her eyes were like waves of autumn water.Seeing Ye Si frowned, her face became a little more solemn, "I have killed 160 people, I don't want to continue like this, I want to leave that bloody and filthy world." Ye Si trembled in his heart, This is the prison in Qin Shuang's heart?In this world, I am a weak woman with no power to restrain a chicken, so how can I help her?

"Some people want to chase and kill me." Qin Shuang replied slowly, "But the court will take action, as long as they get involved with Xiao Ming, who is collaborating with the enemy and treason... As for you, leave tomorrow morning." Qin Shuang How could Shuang really drag an unrelated person into this vortex?

"No." Ye Si pursed his lips, and swallowed the words he wanted to say under Qin Shuang's meaningful gaze.In fact, to her, she is just a stranger, and it is a natural thing to part ways here.If you want to follow her, why?But if you don't follow her, how can you complete the main task?The brows and eyes were full of distress, but apart from warning and alienation, Qin Shuang's eyes could not find a trace of warmth.
