Seeing the back of Si Wei leaving, the lieutenant winked at the soldiers around him, and asked people to follow up to secure the door and windows, and then said to Butler Zhao: "You are not bad, go add some clothes too. !"

Steward Zhao arched his waist, and went to the yard. Adding clothes was the next step. This group of women and children always had to prepare something.After everyone in the Qi Mansion was gone, the deputy general's cronies approached his ear and asked: "Boss, we have done house raids a few times, why are you so...gentle this time?" The cronies are rough people, no Know what adjectives to use to describe this task of catching people.

The deputy general rolled his eyes at the people around him, "You know what, Marquis Qi led the troops to repel the aliens in the north. His courage and strategy are admirable. Now that Marquis is being framed, we can't help you." You can't fall into trouble."

"Boss, our brothers can beat his mother up about the foreign race in the north, why do you admire him!" The confidant laughed, "Boss, there is no one else here, let the brothers know the truth chant?"

The lieutenant general glanced at the people around him, then looked around and saw no outsiders, "Pig head, you have followed me for so long for nothing! Didn't the boss ask us to bring the carriage?"

The confidant scratched his head, "So what?"

"You're stupid!" The lieutenant slapped his cronies resentfully, "Our boss has never been at odds with that Marquis Qi, but when Lord Hou said he wanted a carriage, the boss gave it to him. Why? "

"Why?" The confidant asked down the line.

The deputy general was too lazy to compete with this stupid guy, and directly expressed his guess: "I guess either the old general Wu made love, or..." The deputy general's voice was lowered by three points: "The emperor's order!"

"Ah? The emperor is not..." After hearing this, the cronies couldn't help shouting loudly.

The lieutenant quickly covered his mouth with his hand, "Shut up! If you say one more word, I'll cut off your tongue! Do you want to die?"

The confidant covered his mouth and nodded, and then he was a lot more polite when escorting the people from the Qi Mansion.After they finished talking, Si Wei led the two children out, nodded to the lieutenant general, and knocked on the door of Kong Qiaozhen's room.

"Sister? Are you ready? The soldiers are going to take us back home. We should start when we are ready." Si Wei said while knocking on the door.In fact, Kong Qiaozhen and others in the room could hear Si Wei's conversation with the lieutenant just now, and what Si Wei said at this time was just to remind Kong Qiaozhen not to act rashly, just come out obediently.

Haitang and Shaoyao had been with Si Wei for a long time, and they soon understood what he meant.Si Wei didn't have to wait long before the door of Kong Qiaozhen's room was opened. Shaoyao held a bundle in her left hand, supported Kong Qiaozhen with her right hand, and Haitang took a step behind holding the baby.

"What's in your hand?" The deputy general didn't want to embarrass the members of the Qi family, let alone being "embarrassed" by the Qi family.

"Master Jun, these are our young master's diapers and a change of underwear. You can replace them when the young master gets wet." Shao Yao replied neither humble nor overbearing.

The lieutenant general nodded. Although he was surprised why there was another little one, he didn't say much, but it was a pity that the little guy was about to die within a few days.

The lieutenant brought two carriages, Kong Qiaozhen took Haitang, Shaoyao and Xiaobao in one, and Si Wei took Qiao'er, Zhan'er and Ciwazi in one.The rest of Steward Zhao and others were going to follow, but when Zhiqing and Ciwazi came, they brought the carriage they were driving, and at this time, the rest of the servants just squeezed into it.

Maybe it was because there was no detour this time, or maybe it was because Si Wei was thinking about something along the way, the carriage seemed to have arrived at the gate of Qi Mansion very quickly.

Although Si Wei had tried his best to imagine the dire situation in the mansion, he was still shocked when he got off the carriage.The entire Qi Mansion was surrounded by soldiers wearing armor and holding weapons.

"Xiaozhi!" Si Wei was brought back to his senses by Kong Qiaozhen's call. "Sister, let's go in!" After saying that, Si Wei took a deep breath, and helped his sister to walk into the mansion first.Even if it is a dragon's pool and a tiger's lair, they can't help but break into it at this stage of the field.

After entering the main courtyard, it didn't take long to reach the main hall.In the north center of the hall sat Qi Rongxiao and General Zhang Yi who were drinking tea.

Seeing a group of people coming in, Qi Rongxiao got up and greeted them, "Mother, you have worked hard all the way!"

Kong Qiaozhen took off the hat on the cloak, revealed her face, and shook her head at Qi Rongxiao.

"Mother's face has become more rosy recently, it seems that the prescription given by Dr. Youfang is good!" Qi Rongxiao said with a smile.

You Fang doctor?Si Wei looked at his sister suspiciously, and suddenly understood what Qi Rongxiao meant.Kong Qiaozhen was in the postpartum confinement period, Haitang and others gave her nourishment in different ways, so now Kong Qiaozhen is not only not as haggard and pale as a "seriously ill" person should be, on the contrary, she has gained a lot of weight.

"Yes, I can't tell that Lang You Fang still has some skills. My sister has recovered a lot after taking his medicine, her health has improved, her appetite has improved a lot, and she has gained some flesh." Now that she understands Qi Rongxiao means, of course Si Wei has to cooperate.

"Sure enough, she is a beauty, no wonder you are so filial, Lord Hou!" Zhang Yi interrupted with a wicked smile on his face.

"The emperor has not condemned our brothers for a day, and my mother is still the stepmother of Marquis Qi'an and General Beifang, and the royal wife of the emperor, so put away your messy thoughts!" Qi Rongxiao squinted at Zhang Yi, and said nothing. Be polite.

Zhang Yi withdrew his smile embarrassingly, and muttered: "How could someone call such a beauty a man? Are you blind?"

What Zhang Yi seemed to be talking to himself made Qi Rongxiao's eyes change, but soon he returned to his previous appearance.Except for Si Wei who had been staring at him, no one noticed his abnormality.Si Wei had a lot of things he wanted to ask Qi Rongxiao, but he also knew that now was not a good time to talk.

"Master Hou, my sister is just recovering from a serious illness, isn't it..." Si Wei looked at Qi Rongxiao and asked.

Qi Rongxiao didn't answer, but looked at Zhang Yi. "Ah? Madam, do as you please! As long as you don't leave the gate of this mansion, Madam will treat us as if we don't exist, so you can do as you please."

Kong Qiaozhen nodded, and took Haitang, Shaoyao and the baby back to Jinglan Garden to rest.Afterwards, "Master Hou, I also took a few children down to rest!" After speaking, Si Wei returned to Jingtai Garden with the three children.

Si Wei could see that these people surrounded Qi Mansion tightly on the outside and loose on the inside.People who don't know will definitely be intimidated by the battle outside the Qi mansion, but when they enter the mansion, just like the leading general said, they can pretend that they don't exist, and they can do whatever they want.

Which song is this singing?Si Wei felt that he couldn't figure it out.Since he couldn't figure out why, and Qi Rongxiao didn't give him a hint, Si Wei simply followed his old habits.

Because it was almost noon when the soldiers arrived at the other courtyard, and it was already past noon when they changed their clothes and set off to go back. Although Si Wei felt that the return journey was much faster, in fact, this was probably because of Si Wei's feeling. Mistake, it was already dark when they returned to Qi Mansion.So Si Wei and the others had dinner and washed up before going to bed.

Both Qiao'er and Zhan'er are sensitive children, and Si Wei didn't know if what they saw today would have any bad influence on them, so Si Wei let them sleep by themselves, trying to give the two children a sense of security.

I don't know if it was because of the close people around, although the two children were a little frightened, they fell asleep quickly and peacefully.Si Wei, who was still full of worries, couldn't fall asleep, so he could only close his eyes and rest his mind.

Suddenly Si Wei heard a small sound coming from the door.With the experience of being assassinated last time, Si Wei quickly got up from the bed.Before he had time to do more, he heard a familiar voice at the door: "Xiao Wei? Are you still awake?"

"Rong Xiao? Why are you here? They..." Didn't guard you?Si Wei didn't ask further, the general said that as long as he doesn't leave the gate of Qi Mansion, it's fine.Besides, even if he was in custody, Si Wei believed that Qi Rongxiao would find a way to come out.

"Xiao Wei, it's running out of time, listen to me!" Qi Rongxiao pulled Si Wei out of the bed, "I'm leaving for Beifang tonight, you decide what happens in the house, remember not to let others know that I'm not here , General Zhang Yi will help you, understand?"

Si Wei frowned, and through the slight light, Si Wei saw clearly that Qi Rongxiao was wearing armor, the same style as the soldiers he saw outside the door today. "Why do you want to go to Beifang? What happened?"

Qi Rongxiao watched Si Wei make a quick decision. "Xiao Wei, it's no longer necessary to hide the matter from you, but this matter is very complicated. Let me make a long story short, just listen, okay?"

Seeing Si Wei nodded, Qi Rongxiao began to tell the story.To put it simply, this matter is that the youngest son An Wang, who was favored by the first emperor, was not convinced that he did not get the throne.And the Qi Rongxiao brothers are the disaster of the fish, the two brothers are famous generals, Wang An sent someone to contact the two brothers based on the principle of "if you can win, you can win, if you can't win, then get rid of them", but the two brothers rejected it unanimously. , So there was a scene where the ministers sued the emperor for their crimes in the court hall.

"Then what does the emperor mean? Since he sent troops to surround the Qi mansion, why did he send you to defend the north?" Qi Rongxiao explained, and Si Wei became more puzzled.

"King An has secretly stationed troops around the capital. Currently, the troops in the capital are not strong enough to compete with him, so the emperor asked Yingxiao to send troops from the northern defense back to the capital. As soon as Yingxiao leaves the northern defense camp, the neighboring countries will be ready to move. , I am only going to prevent the attack of dishonest countries that want to take advantage of the chaos, and the northern defense camp will not be without leading generals." Qi Rongxiao quickly explained.

"Yingxiao has brought all the soldiers back to the capital, what do you use to fight against the enemy? And why you? Zhang Yi who came to surround our house is also a general, why don't you let him lead the troops to guard the border, but let you, a retired general Go?" Si Wei suddenly felt a little angry, why did the Qi family do this dangerous thing?

"Yingxiao only took away the [-] troops from the North Defense, plus the [-] troops borrowed from the Lan Kingdom are enough to help the capital, and the remaining troops are enough for me to defend the North Defense Camp. As for Zhang Yi... ..." Qi Rongxiao pondered for a while, "I guess the emperor has two intentions, one is to prevent the snake from being overwhelmed, and the other is that the dragon and tiger battalion led by Zhang Yi is regarded as the emperor's guard battalion, and he has no experience in leading troops against foreign enemies alone."

Si Wei narrowed his eyes, "You must go anyway?"
