After the horses left the city, the roads along the outskirts of the city seemed even more lonely.
Without the cover of busy traffic and the fact that this was an official road, even if Chen Yannian wanted to keep up with them, he could only keep a certain distance.
Although there are many carriages and horses going to various places on the official road, she is also worried that if the coachman or Yan Ziqing suddenly turns around, he will be able to see her at a glance.
So Chen Hongnian kept following their car at a distance of two or three carriages.
After such tracking, after going around two or three intersections, there were fewer and fewer vehicles traveling with Yan Ziqing's carriage.
Moreover, the roads along this route were all straight, so if Chen Changnian continued to follow them on horseback, he would inevitably expose himself.
So she only left the horse nearby, and after the carriage went further and further away, she just gathered her strength and jumped into the woods on both sides of the road to follow it.
Fortunately, this journey is not far.
After she followed it for dozens of steps, the carriage stopped outside a gorgeous manor on the outskirts of Beijing.
Although this is just a suburb of Beijing, to be able to build such a gorgeous manor, the owner of this manor must be very wealthy.
Moreover, a manor of this size is most likely the private property of one of the manor owners.
After all, ordinary people cannot afford this kind of manor, and most people who can afford this kind of manor will not live in this kind of place.
Therefore, the owner of this manor is probably either rich or noble.
But as a result, Chen Yannian couldn't help but find it even more strange. When did his third brother meet such a wealthy person.
And since the other party is so rich, why is it that the rich man is still unwilling to take his wife away.
To be honest, when Song Chuchu stayed in Chen's house, she almost thought that her brother's friends were actually very poor and wanted to rely on their house to take care of their daughter-in-law.
However, it seems now that that person has absolutely no reason to act like this.
After all, even if Song Chuchu is a concubine, if the manor owner's wife is jealous, he can keep the concubine outside.
While Chen Hongnian was wondering, Yan Ziqing had already got off the carriage.
He knocked on the brass ring at the vermilion door of the manor.
Not long afterward, several attendants appeared in the manor.
Those attendants seemed to know Yan Ziqing. After Yan Ziqing briefly explained the situation to them, they opened the car curtain.
Song Chuchu was just dying in the carriage. In the past, if she saw a handsome boy, she would inevitably tease him.
However, when she discovered that the young man who poked his head into the new manor today was very handsome, she had no intention of admiring him.
The young man just lowered his eyebrows and said respectfully, "Madam, I heard that your foot is injured. Why don't you let me carry you down?"
After hearing this, Song Chuchu only stood up in cooperation. At this time, she didn't know whether it was the medicine that had the effect or Chen Jinghuai's bone-setting skills that were very good.
When she stood up this time, it was not as painful as before.
She just limped up to the young man, and then after getting out of the carriage, she lay on the young man's back.
Chen Changnian, who was hiding in the tree, could not help but breathe a sigh of relief when she saw that Song Chuchu seemed to have no communication with Yan Ziqing throughout the whole process.
It was just the remaining half breath that she couldn't help but suck back after seeing someone coming out of the door again.
The visitor was wearing ordinary butler clothes. He was slightly fat and had a head full of white hair. He looked like an ordinary kind old man.
However, he was such an ordinary-looking old man. If she remembered correctly, this should be Zhou Yingqi, the commander of the secret guards around King Jin.
But after King Jin's accident, the commander and King Jin's secret guards disappeared.
However, at that time, everyone's attention was focused on the situation when King Jin had an accident in Yunzhou, so not many people investigated where these people went.
But now she met Zhou Yingqi in this unknown manor.
Generally speaking, it is impossible for this kind of royal secret guard to fall into the hands of ordinary people. Even if it falls into the hands of ordinary officials, it is impossible. After all, these secret guards do more than protect themselves
The master must have done some shady things for his master.
Especially this is the secret guard of the Tian family.
Therefore, after the death of their master, there are only two major destinations for these secret guards. One is to prevent their master's secrets from being revealed. Most of these secret guards will die to ensure that their master's secrets are not leaked.
Another way is to recall them uniformly for Emperor Yong, and then directly serve Emperor Yong, or be given to his other sons by Emperor Yong.
But this manor is obviously not a royal manor, and if Emperor Yong really likes someone, there is no need to hide him in this mountain suburb. After all, after the overthrow of Chen, the power of Emperor Yong has been unprecedentedly concentrated. He is rich all over the world. Of course there is no need to hide people in a place like this secretly.
But apart from Emperor Yong, the only sons of Emperor Yong who can be with Song Chuchu now are the Liang Prince Zhao Nianze and the fourth prince Zhao Chengyuan. The only other son who barely meets the age limit is the ninth prince Zhao Lang.
The Ninth Prince is still young after all, and although he likes to flirt with women, it is not known that he has ever had any romantic debts.
And the fourth prince, Zhao Chengyuan, doesn't seem to have the temperament to spend so much time raising people to other courtyards. What's more, although he is a prince, he is not favored by his mother, and his mother's family has little influence. And he himself is an idiot, so until now, he has never been involved in government affairs. Naturally, with his little private money, he will never be able to afford a manor of this size.
However, Prince Liang's current concubine, Mrs. Xu, is not easy to agree with. I heard that before, Prince Liang and his concubine, Mrs. Su, were in love with each other. But in the end, the two houses fought, and in the end the Xu family forced the Su family to retire sadly.
Now it seems that it would make sense if King Liang sent Song Chuchu to another court because he was afraid of the Xu family.
Moreover, Emperor Yong now relies more and more on King Liang. There is only one voice in the court saying that King Liang will definitely inherit Emperor Yong's rule in the future.
Therefore, it does not seem surprising that King Jin's secret guards arranged for King Liang to inherit.
It's just that Prince Liang and his brother never moved around very much, so there shouldn't be much interaction between them.
Moreover, King Liang had never been to Yunzhou, but Song Chuchu came from Yunzhou.
The only one who has been to Yunzhou is King Jin, and if he really wants to be investigated, King Jin can match him in terms of time and relationship with these two people.
But now everyone else is dead and the funerals have been held. Could it be that this man could come back from the dead?
And if Zhao Yanzhen hadn't insisted on forcibly marrying Jiang Nianjiao, Jiang Nianjiao would have already entered the Chen family.
Besides, he was so attentive to Jiang Nianjiao at the beginning, so it's probably impossible for him to change his heart in such a short period of time.
For a moment, Chen Yannian felt that he had no clue.
On the other side, after Yan Ziqing sent Song Chuchu to the manor and asked Zhou Yingqi to take good care of Song Chuchu, he said goodbye to Zhou Yingqi.
Although Chen Yannian was a little curious about who the person behind Song Chuchu was.
But the person she was really following was Yan Ziqing. Now that she saw Yan Ziqing leaving, she naturally followed Yan Ziqing's carriage.
Just when she thought Yan Ziqing would leave on the carriage.
Unexpectedly, Yan Ziqing suddenly paused for a moment before getting in the car, and within a moment, his eyes were fixed on the edge of the forest road next to the manor.
Chen Yannian couldn't help but feel nervous when he saw his gaze coming over. Could it be that Yan Ziqing had discovered his existence.
But soon, not far from her, there were wooden leaves shaking in the forest, and Yan Ziqing's eyes were only fixed on one place.
At the same time, a flying bird rushed out from the shaking place of Konoha.
Seeing that it was just a flying bird, Yan Ziqing quickly withdrew his gaze. Chen Changnian saw that he seemed to be ready to climb onto the carriage.
He also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
But considering Yan Ziqing's usual acumen, she didn't dare to act rashly. She only planned to follow the method just now and keep only two or three cars away from Yan Ziqing. She would get closer to him when she returned to the downtown area. @
Thinking of this, she prepared to follow the carriage from Lin Ye.
However, during her dazed moment, a figure quietly approached her.
Chen Yannian felt the support of others
Nearby also dodged sideways, and then the two started fighting in the forest.
This little movement is much louder than the noise made by the flying birds.
Yan Ziqing, who had originally boarded the car, naturally flew towards the forest road where Chen Changnian was fighting.
He originally felt that he was being followed by someone, but it was just that he couldn't do anything when Song Chuchu was in the car. He didn't expect that person to follow him to the manor now. He originally thought that the other party's target was the secret of the manor, so he thought at the time The people in the manor would deal with him directly, but they didn't expect that the stalker was not coming for the manor at all, but seemed to have been following him.
When he thought about the hatred he carried, he couldn't help but feel wary.
Therefore, although the stalker had probably been discovered by the secret guards outside the manor, he still turned around and followed him.
Not wanting to follow him into the forest, the only person he saw besides the secret guards outside the manor was Chen Changnian, who had separated from him this afternoon.
He unexpectedly called out, "Ah Qian, why are you here?"
At this time, Chen Yannian was only focused on fighting the secret guard and had no time to pay attention to him.
Finally, the secret guard stepped back a foot away and said loudly to Yan Ziqing, "Do you know each other?"
Yan Ziqing nodded and broke through Chen Hongnian's offensive with one sword.
After the sword in Chen Yannian's hand was picked up and clattered to the ground, she turned her eyes to Yan Ziqing.
Realizing that she had been discovered by Yan Ziqing, she subconsciously wanted to cover her face with her hands.
Yan Ziqing walked towards her helplessly and said, "Aqian, stop covering up, I already recognize you."
Then Yan Ziqing just explained to the secret guard next to him, "Brother, she is one of our own, please be accommodating."
When the secret guard saw what Yan Ziqing said, he naturally stopped, but before leaving, he still warned, "Don't let her tell others about this place."
