Lucky husband

Because Bai Ting said a few more words at the door just now, the leading official became suspicious of them, but after entering the door, looking at the two scholars who were reading and discussing knowledge in the room, the leading official's suspicion was slightly dispelled.

The worst ones who came to the capital to rush for the exam were Juren. Although they were official servants who were ordered to do things, it was obviously not wise to offend Juren. lead."

Bai Zhiwen and Li Mingde, who were still discussing a certain issue just now, stopped to look at the officials, and Li Mingde spoke first: "No problem, please follow me to another room, our household registration certificates are all over there."

Originally, their household registration certificates were kept separately, but because Li Mingde and Bai Zhiwen were going to take the examination, Li Mingde held them together for the time being. So right now his household registration certificate is with Li Mingde.

The leading officer gave a look to a person behind him, asking him to check the room, and then he followed Li Mingde with another person and went to Li Mingde's room.

Under Bai Zhiwen's watchful eyes, the remaining officials opened their cabinets and cages, checked under the bed, checked the ground, and left the room after making sure that there was no one hiding in the room.

Bai Zhiwen watched the whole process with a cold face as the official did not make a sound to stop the search, but because of the identities of Bai Zhiwen and Li Mingde, the official did not do anything excessive during the search. I looked at the place where the person was, and I didn't rummage through the things inside.

The same is true for Li Mingde's room next to them. The leading official inspected their household registration certificates. Together with the household registration certificates, there are also things they used when they participated in the examination.

Although these things can basically prove that Li Mingde and the others are really students who came to the capital to take part in the examination, the leading official inspected all the information very carefully, not letting go of any details, just worried that their things are fake of.

The real can’t be fake, the fake can’t be real, Li Mingde watched without saying a word, let the leading official watch, and check their room with the people next to him.

There was no problem with the information. There was no Tibetan in this room. Then, the officials carefully checked the other rooms, the kitchen, and every corner of the yard.

After confirming that there is no possibility of anyone hiding in this small courtyard, the leading officer politely put the road guide and household registration certificate back into Li Mingde's hands: "Li Gongshi, Bai Juren, our brothers are ordered to search for fugitives. , please forgive me for offending me just now."

Li Mingde made a student salute: "Several officials are working for the imperial court. I can't help but I should cooperate more and not let the fugitives go unpunished."

The implication is that they will not be dissatisfied because the house was searched, after all, this kind of thing is beyond their control.

Just when these officials were about to leave the small courtyard, a strange sound suddenly came from the room behind them.

The leading officer's expression froze: "Why is there a sound inside?"

"Maybe it's a wild cat?" Bai Zhiwen frowned and said uncertainly, "This alley is located in a remote place, and there are often wild cats."

It is true that feral cats come and go, but no one knows whether the sound is made by feral cats.

At this moment, whether it was Bai Zhiwen or Li Mingde, as well as Li Mingjin, Bai Ting, and Nanny Qiu, their hearts were lifted.

Just when the leading official was about to go in and search again, a wild cat with yellow and white patterns suddenly jumped out from the eaves.

Probably because it was frightened by seeing the people in the yard, it ran to the other side of the eaves and jumped down, and landed lightly on the ground.

Then, under the surprised or relaxed eyes of a group of people, the wild cat ran to the corner of the wall, ran to the side yard, and disappeared.

It turned out that it was really the noise made by the wild cat.

After the wild cat ran away, the courtyard was very quiet. Bai Zhiwen and the others turned their heads and stared at the three officials standing at the door.

The leading official coughed lightly, and put on a polite smile: "Li Gongshi, Bai Juren, if you have any news about the fugitives, please go to Jingzhao Mansion immediately to explain."

After the officials left, Bai Ting stepped forward and gently closed the door. The moment she inserted the door bolt, her composure disappeared, and she leaned against the door, panting heavily and silently.

God knows, just now she was so nervous that she forgot to breathe, but her legs softened as soon as the person was sent away, and she might have collapsed to the ground without leaning on the door panel.

Bai Zhiwen's complexion was not so good either: "That wild cat just now was really..."

Before he finished speaking, Bai Zhiwen squeezed out a smile: "Brother Jin, you fell on your knee just now, let me see if you feel better."

Finding an excuse, Bai Zhiwen stepped forward to help Li Mingjin go back to the house.

Behind them, Li Mingde also helped Bai Ting leave the yard.

Qiu Nanny followed closely behind and went back to her room.

Although they closed the courtyard door, they don't know if the partition wall will have ears, so they can't relax now. It's better to wait until the officials in this alley are gone before talking about the next thing.

After returning to the room and closing the door, Li Mingjin's flustered heartbeat gradually calmed down. When the wild cat jumped down, he was thinking about what they would do if Mr. Yan was discovered.

Sitting on the soft bed, Bai Zhiwen hugged Li Mingjin and suddenly regretted it. At that time, he and his senior brother made the decision to bring Mr. Yan home too recklessly, without considering the safety of his family.

In the final analysis, it was only his guess that Mr. Yan had something to do with the cheating in the exam. He didn't know why Mr. Yan was harmed because of something, maybe it had nothing to do with the exam.

And at that time, they didn't know how complicated the things behind Mr. Yan were. At that time, they could actually think of other ways to help Mr. Yan. It was because they didn't think carefully that they made the family panic and frightened.

After a long, long time, until the heartbeats of Bai Zhiwen and Li Mingjin gradually calmed down, their sore and weak legs and feet gradually became stronger, and until the noise outside the alley gradually disappeared, Bai Zhiwen said to Li Mingjin: " Ah Jin, there will be no next time."

Li Mingjin didn't reply. He didn't know what he could say at this time. Should he answer "Okay, I understand" or "No, you can't do nothing?"

After a while, Madam Qiu's voice sounded outside their room: "Brother Jin, Zhiwen, have you rested yet?"

This was Mother Qiu reminding them that the officials outside had left and they could come out of the house.

Just now, Nanny Qiu went outside first, because she was about the same age as the other wives in the alley, and they had lived here for several months, so she quickly chatted with those wives Got up, discussed a few words in twos and threes about what happened just now.

Qiu Nanny quietly said to Bai Zhiwen and Li Mingde: "They're all gone, move your friends down quickly."

Mr. Yan just passed out after being drugged at noon, but now that he has been tied to the beam for so long, I don't know if he has other problems.

This time, Nanny Qiu stayed and stood at the door, paying attention to the movement outside, and wanted to see what Bai Zhiwen and his friends looked like.

Bai Zhiwen and Li Mingde untied the cloth strips on Young Master Yan's body carefully and with great difficulty, just like they carried Mr. Yan up there just now.

At this moment, Mr. Yan's eyelids moved with his eyes closed and unresponsive.

Bai Zhiwen, who was lying on the beam, didn't notice Mr. Yan's movement. He had to worry about falling from the beam, and he had to pay close attention to Mr. Yan.

After a while, the cloth strip on Mr. Yan's body was finally untied, and Bai Zhiwen stretched his hand forward, intending to take out the cloth strip stuffed in Mr. Yan's mouth.

At this moment, Mr. Yan opened his eyes, and the expression in his eyes quickly changed from blank to sharp.

When he felt that someone was moving him just now, his consciousness began to wake up. The soreness and weakness of his limbs made him slow down for a long time before he gathered a little strength to lift his heavy eyelids.

After opening his eyes, he realized that there was something wrong with the environment he was in. The roof beams were too close to him, so close that he could touch them with his hands.

Just when he was about to speak, he suddenly found that something was stuffed in his mouth, which made him unable to speak.

Humiliation, anger, worry, helplessness, regret, anxiety and other emotions emerged at the same time. Mr. Yan remembered all the things before he fell into a coma. It seemed that he had mistrusted someone.

Bai Zhiwen was taken aback by Mr. Yan's sudden opening of his eyes, and then said pleasantly, "Mr. Yan, you finally woke up!"

The effect of this drug was really domineering, and it almost made Mr. Yan fall into a coma for three hours.

While talking, Bai Zhiwen pulled out the cloth strip from Mr. Yan's mouth, and told him in a low voice why they treated him like this: "Do you have the strength now, can you move yourself?"

Mr. Yan tried his best to move his hands and feet, but his hands and feet didn't respond to him. He had no choice but to tell the truth: "I can't move it yet."

In order to make him unable to resist, those people used a very large amount of drugs on him. I'm afraid he will have to rest for a while before he can recover his ability to move.

Bai Zhiwen nodded: "Okay, then don't resist. Brother and I will get you down first. It's not safe to lie on the beam."

Although Mr. Yan's hands and feet were still weak, he was awake at least now, and with his efforts, he was able to control his hands and feet a little, so that Li Mingde and the others could move him down.

Smoother than expected, Mr. Yan left the special beam and lay down on the simple "bed" made of several stools again, allowing him to lie down and rest with some peace of mind.

Standing at the door, Aunt Qiu's eyes were full of shock. Her lips trembled slightly when she faced the officials who hadn't changed her face just now, which was enough to show how restless her mood was.
