Lin Yi vaguely felt that the people around her were getting dressed.
She tried to open her eyes. It seemed that it was not time for Qin Shuihan to practice. It was pitch dark outside, it must be midnight.
"Shuihan..."
Qin Shuihan leaned over and kissed her forehead.
"Yiyi, you go on sleeping, I want to go out for a while."
After saying that, he lit the candles in the outer hall and put on his black night clothes.
The shadow behind the screen was very neat, the clothes were tight, and the figure perfectly highlighted. Lin Yi couldn't help but shook her head, was it Shui Han?
"Shui Han! Is that you?"
Lin Yi hugged the quilt tightly, with a tremor in her voice.
Qin Shuihan sighed in his heart. He didn't expect to scare her. He should have gone to sleep in his bedroom just now.
He glanced down at his night clothes and then put out the candle.
"Yiyi, it's me, can't you hear my voice?"
Qin Shuihan sat beside the bed, touched her head, and comforted her to lie down and sleep.
After a while, Lin Yi fell asleep again.
Qin Shuihan looked outside the house with sharp eyes. He knew that the footsteps were Xuan Feng.
"master."
Xuanfeng handed over a sword.
This is the Tangxi Sword that Mr. Qiu worked hard to obtain for Qin Shuihan. It is light and frosty, with compelling spiritual energy and is even lighter.
When he reached the entrance of the courtyard, Cheng Xian, who was dressed in night clothes, immediately nodded and saluted.
"Your Majesty."
Qin Shuihan glanced at him. He not only wore a sword but also a dagger on his waist, his eyes flashed with seriousness and vigilance.
This was the first time Cheng Xian followed Qin Shuihan to arrest someone, but he didn't expect that the other party turned out to be a big bastard who embezzled military pay.
After passing the martial arts selection that year, several of his brothers were sent to the frontier, and he was incorporated into the Yulin Guard because of his superior martial arts skills.
Are those brothers back then healthy?
Cheng Xian pulled the cuffs again. This was his first time wearing night clothes. It was too tight and he was not used to it.
After all, the robes of the imperial guards are large and have loose cuffs, making them very easy to move around.
However, he noticed that this night suit was very tough, didn't feel like cloth, and seemed to have some defensive capabilities against swords.
Several people drove horses to a large house in the northern suburbs.
Several people have been waiting here for a long time.
"King Han, Lou Li's people have just left. As you expected, they came with five carriages and moved many large boxes. Judging from the marks on the wheels, they must be gold."
Zuo Haoran rubbed his hands. He had been waiting for two days. He was sleepy and cold, but his eyes were full of excitement that could not be concealed.
After all, the network is about to be closed, which is exciting!
Qin Shuihan showed a smile. The groom-to-be was also trying his best. His injuries from the previous days had not healed well, so he came to keep an eye on him again today.
"How's it going with Xiaoqi?"
"King Yi brought more than 20 people from Fengying Pavilion to follow Lou Li's motorcade."
Qin Shuihan nodded. The amount this time was so huge that he would definitely be able to find the location of his small treasury.
He looked at the house with dark eyes, believing that he had not made a mistake in his judgment.
As soon as Lou Li purchased the mines in western Banzhu, warnings came from northern Xinjiang that a snowstorm was raging and the soldiers were infected with typhoid fever. They had no financial resources to purchase supplies and medicinal materials. In order to stabilize the morale of the army, he asked the court for support.
The timing was too coincidental, and my father quickly sent military pay to Northern Xinjiang.
Qin Shuihan felt helpless. When it came to marching and fighting, his father always spared no effort to support him, but was the real situation really as reported?
My father never seemed to suspect that others would embezzle military pay, but he was obviously a suspicious person.
Qin Shuihan was puzzled.
At this time, the candles in the mansion were extinguished, and everyone held their breath, tensed their muscles, and were ready to rush in and arrest people at any time.
About ten people came out of the house, all dressed in black.
The leader's steps are strong and vigorous, and one can tell at a glance that he has profound skills.
"The person who takes the lead will be caught alive, and the rest will act accordingly."
Qin Shuihan glanced at Xuanfeng and Cheng Xian and told them to go back later.
Everyone rushed over like an arrow from a string.
"Xuanfeng, protect Mr. Zuo. Cheng Xian, take down the leader."
"yes!"
Qin Shuihan also walked over slowly.
Although the moon was obscured by thick clouds, the twinkling stars could not be seen, and the surroundings were shrouded in darkness, but with the weak moonlight, Cheng Xian quickly rushed to the leading man.
Capture the thief first and capture the king!
"Deputy Commander, there is an ambush!"
"Don't panic, kill them all!"
The leader's voice was calm, as if he didn't care at all about the person confronting them.
The swords intertwined in the darkness, and faint sparks flashed.
Qin Shuihan frowned. The opponent's people were well-trained and could fight calmly in the dark.
Well--
Casualties were inevitable, but judging from his clothes, it was a master from Fengying Pavilion who fell to the ground.
As expected, Zuo Haoran was no match. Although his martial arts skills were pretty good, he didn't know how to take out people's vital points. Facing those who were killing him, he even tried to block the opponent's mobility.
Xuanfeng decisively assisted from the side, but soon the other party's companions also joined the battle.
This is a life and death struggle.
On the other side, a big knife was swung down, and Cheng Xian's sword was split into two halves.
He quickly lowered his body, drew out his dagger and slashed towards the opponent's knee.
Although even Qin Shuihan looked approvingly at this operation, the opponent was too strong and perfectly dodged the attack.
There was a frightening murderous look in the opponent's eyes. Although he was tall and tall, his steps were extremely light. Cheng Xian was beaten without the ability to fight back.
All his movements seemed to be a beat slower than his opponent's.
Qin Shuihan watched the leader's movements closely. The "deputy commander" just now proved to be his former master Qi Gao.
He sighed and rushed over.
"Deputy Commander Qi, stop it."
Qi Gao was a little shocked. He originally thought that some idiot who was desperate for his life was eyeing his money, but he didn't expect that the person ambushing him was actually King Han.
He put down the sword and stood in the darkness with his back straight.
"Why does His Highness Prince Han want to go there with me?"
Cheng Xian, who was lying on the ground, was breathing heavily. With the sword strike just now, he thought that his life was sealed here. Unexpectedly, King Han stopped the opponent's sword with a slight wave of his sword.
So strong!
"This king cannot let go of Da Qin's moth, and it has nothing to do with who Deputy Commander Qi is. Are you going to just surrender, or will you let me remove your bones?"
"King Han has such a strong tone."
Qi Gao breathed a sigh of relief slowly. In his eyes, Qin Shuihan was just the little kid back then who accidentally made military exploits.
Qin Shuihan felt the contempt in his eyes, and he didn't care much. Remembering that he had taught him a lesson, he put away his sword.
Cheng Xian was stunned. Just now King Han had vowed to remove the opponent's muscles and bones. Will he have to extract the bones with his bare hands now?
Qi Gao was obviously angered by his move. Was he looking down on himself?
"Shuzi! Don't blame me for being rude!"
Qi Gao swung his sword and struck Qin Shuihan on the head.
He is worthy of being a soldier on the battlefield, his strikes are sharp and direct to the vital point.
Qin Shuihan turned sideways and hid.
Before he could stand still, Qi Gao swung his knife again, hitting his waist directly.
Qin Shuihan pushed hard and stopped his arm.
Qi Gao took a step back.
He stared angrily, his eyebrows twisted into a straight line, like a devil in the night, his eyes revealed a ferocious light.
"court death!"
Qin Shuihan sighed. After all, he was a general leading troops in war, so he couldn't hold his breath.
Three moves and one pass.
Qin Shuihan quickly drew out his sword, and before Qi Gao could react, he knocked down his sword with one blow.
The next second the sword was pointed at his throat.
Qi Gao covered his arm. Although the sword just now did not cut his arm, the vibration transmitted through the blade obviously injured the entire arm.
He has such strong internal strength, I underestimated him.
"It's up to you to kill him!"
"good."
The sword rises and the arm falls.
ah--
Qin Shuihan broke his hamstring again.
"Cheng Xian, stop his bleeding and don't let him die."
Cheng Xian wanted to say "yes", but he opened his mouth but couldn't spit out a word. Everything happened so fast, and he was able to capture the opponent in just a few seconds.
He held his breath for a long time and shouted "Yes!"
Qin Shuihan ignored it and turned around to deal with others.
Zuo Haoran covered his arm and stepped aside. It seemed that the old injury from last time had not healed. In the round just now, his arm was in heartbreaking pain again.
He watched Xuanfeng parry left and right, but he didn't expect that King Han's guards were so powerful. Who knew that as soon as he looked at Qin Shuihan, what caught his eye was his figure swinging his sword to death.
A sword slashed across the neck!
A sword pierced the chest!
It turns out that is the correct way to fight!
Amazing!
At this moment, the clouds cleared, and the stars in the night sky just showed their faces, then became dim and faded under the light of the morning sun.
The sound of cattle carts could be heard on the official road not far away, and early-rising people were already on the road.
"Guxue, clean up this place. As for Lieutenant General Qi, force him into the secret room of Fengying Pavilion first. Don't let any news about this matter leak out."
The Fengying Pavilion killer named Guxue tugged on the wind collar around his neck. His neck was prone to cold and he liked to put something around him all year round.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty."
Qin Shuihan glanced around and saw Zuo Haoran drooping his head and covering his arms. It seemed that his old injury had not healed and he had a new one.
"Master Zuo, I'll take you back home."
Zuo Haoran quickly shook his head. It was because he was useless. He could still do such a small thing as returning home. He could just pull the reins with his left hand.
"Thank you King Han. It doesn't matter if Shi An is here."
He looked at his followers and found Shi An sitting on the ground, with people from Fengying Pavilion helping to stop the bleeding in his legs.
Worse than myself...
Qin Shuihan followed his gaze and glanced at his follower, who was also seriously injured.
"Xuanfeng, take Mr. Zuo back to your home."
Xuanfeng nodded and ordered.
When Qin Shuihan returned to Prince Han's Mansion, Qin Yi's good horse was already in his stable.
He went directly to the study.
"Fifth brother, how are you doing there? I found Lou Li's vault."
Qin Yi hadn't taken off his night clothes yet, but the suit finally fit him.
Qin Shuihan glanced at his boots and found that they were full of mud.
"Qi Gao is already under our control and everything is under control."
"There will definitely be no problem for Fifth Brother to take action."
He glanced at Qin Shuihan's sword and thought that Qi Gao was not someone to be taken lightly, so Fifth Brother should take action now.
Qin Shuihan took a piece of leather and sat on the squat, carefully wiping the blade.
Sure enough, there was blood!
Qin Yi curled his lips. He didn't wear a sword today. Anyway, he was just watching, not killing.
"Fifth brother, Lou Li's treasury is in the cemetery in the west of the capital. There is a mausoleum guarding house over there. It is sparsely populated and heavily guarded. I never thought that this old guy would hide gold beside the tomb."
Qin Shuihan laughed coldly. Everyone in the court knew that Lou Li was a filial son. It was true that he placed a large amount of gold and silver treasures beside his ancestors' graves.
"Fifth brother, shall I inform Brother Bai right away and ask him to prepare for the performance?"
"You go back and change your clothes first. Today is the wedding day of the prince's brother."
Qin Yi collapsed on the tea table, he wanted to sleep.
"Fifth brother, I will take a nap for a while. When I wake up, I will go home and change clothes."
Qin Shuihan sheathed his sword, ignored him, and went directly to Hanquan.
Three poles in the sun.
Lin Yi went to feed the voles, but the two couples seemed to have no stomach movement. Was it because they were not getting enough nutrition?
She sighed and looked at the petri dishes of different sizes. Sure enough, the white porcelain vessels were awkward, like the jelly she ate yesterday.
Although Lin Yi is not an idealist, she still felt a little uncomfortable when she saw the mold on several dishes.
But obviously these molds are not what I want. They grow together with those tiny bacteria. However, the temperature at this time is too low to maintain a constant temperature of 37 degrees. Let's wait until the weather gets hotter.
Lin Yi closed the door and walked to the entrance of the courtyard. She found that Tong Mingyan was working with a new person today.
"See Princess."
The two of them bowed at the same time.
"Thank you for your hard work, are you?"
"Bao Qingyun, a humble official, will be guarding the princess's yard from today on."
Lin Yi pursed her lips, why wasn't it Bao Qingtian?
However, this guard is tall, has strong facial features, and is indeed heroic. It would be a waste of talent to show him the door.
She shook her head and looked at Tong Mingyan.
"Child Guard, where is Guard Cheng?"
Tong Mingyan knew that Cheng Xian was favored by King Han and might be of great use, but when he saw him this morning, he was really shocked.
There was an inexplicable light shining in the blue and black eyes of the dead fish, as if it was still staring at death, which was very strange!
Cheng Xian grabbed Tong Mingyan's shoulders and said, "Brother Tong, King Han is so powerful!"
But after shaking a few times, he immediately covered his arms and twitched the corners of his mouth.
"It hurts, it hurts so much!"
Tong Mingyan didn't know what happened last night, but he knew that Cheng Xian had been too excited to sleep these past few days.
It was indeed exciting to be able to act with King Han, but I didn't expect that he would be this good after the mission was over.
He calmed down and immediately replied: "Reporting to the princess, Guard Cheng twisted his arm and is resting in the inner court."
Lin Yi groaned, wondering what the guard had been through and how he could twist his arm. However, since Dr. Chen was at home, he stopped meddling in his own business.
"You guys are guarding the gate here, aren't you bored?"
The two looked at each other, then fell to their knees.
"It is a humble honor to be able to protect the princess."
Lin Yi took a step back in fright. She just wanted to chat casually, but she didn't expect the other party to have such a strong reaction.
"You, you guys, get up!"
The two of them looked up at Lin Yi and saw that she was really anxious and at a loss. After a moment of hesitation, they stood up.
After a moment of ideological struggle, Tong Mingyan asked cautiously: "Princess, what's wrong with this humble position?"
Lin Yi hummed, she seemed to finally understand the thinking mode of these people.
There is no distinction between high and low work. As long as it is work, it must be performed diligently and without complaint!
"No, no, it's really not. I just thought you might find it boring to stand here..."
Tong Mingyan and Bao Qingyun both straightened their backs and served King Han without hesitation!
At this time, Biyue also came over. Looking at Lin Yi's uneasy look, she knew that she didn't like others to kneel down.
But what happened just now? Do the two guards need to kneel down?
"I've seen Guard Bi."
Tong Mingyan and Bao Qingyun bowed.
"Child guard, Bao guard."
Biyue also returned the salute. Her eyes lingered on their faces, but she didn't see anything unusual.
"Princess, are you going out?"
Lin Yi shook his head.
"I'm going to get some ingredients from Chef Li."
"raw material?"
Lin Yi stuck out her tongue.
"Material!"
Biyue hurriedly followed, leaving Tong Mingyan and Bao Qingyun blank.
Lin Yi and Bi Yue had just taken a few steps when they met Qin Shuihan who was coming.
"Yiyi."
Qin Shuihan took Lin Yi back to Jinghan Pavilion, but looking at her little face, he hesitated a little. Can Yiyi change his clothes?
"Shuihan, what's wrong?"
Lin Yi felt that his pace was a little fast, as if there was something urgent.
"Yiyi, change my clothes."
Lin Yi blinked.
Changing clothes? Can I do this kind of thing myself?
Qin Shuihan opened the wardrobe and took out a set of indigo brocade robes.
He took off his clothes and stood in front of Lin Yi with his upper body naked.
"Yiyi, cashmere is in the middle."
Lin Yi swallowed and quickly put a piece of base clothing on Qin Shuihan.
She held her clothes and stood in front of him.
Eyes facing each other.
The maid always stood behind her to change her clothes!
Lin Yi patted his forehead and quickly walked around behind Qin Shuihan to dress him.
"Lingpao."
Lin Yi muttered about the robe and immediately picked up the robe on the bed.
Qin Shuihan's eyes were a little dull. Sure enough, Yiyi's views on clothing were different from others.
"Yiyi, the one next to you. This one is on top of the robe."
Lin Yi rolled his eyes, a little speechless, and quickly changed to another one.
After putting on a set of clothes, Lin Yi's outlook on life was completely shattered.
The man's dressing is also so complicated. It seems that he went to bed too early and didn't know the order of Qin Shuihan's undressing.
"You are dressed up so beautifully, where are you going?"
Lin Yi combed his long hair. The quality of his hair was so good.
"Today is Qin Zhe's wedding day."
It turned out to be that bastard. Lin Yi snorted. The day after tomorrow was Shen Shihua's wedding. I didn't expect that their wedding was so close.
Didn’t you say you want good times and auspicious days? Why do you make every day seem like a good day!
"Do you want a drink?"
"What good wine can he have there?"
Lin Yi breathed a sigh of relief, it's not like modern marriage where you just have to drink and go crazy.
"Then you come back early."
Qin Shuihan curled his lips, hugged Lin Yi's slender waist, and leaned against her chest.
Yiyi's heart was so tender and warm that he didn't even want to go to the Prince's Mansion.
Lin Yi felt that he was a little tired and gently massaged his temples.
"Did you not sleep well last night? It seems you woke up very early."
"No, I slept well last night."
Lin Yi hummed, a little unsure whether last night was a dream or not.
Qin Shuihan opened his eyes leisurely and saw several paintings in front of the case. He couldn't help but reach out and look through them.
He stared at a painting of a mouse and thought for a moment.
Lin Yi raised his eyes and looked at his "masterpiece", which was Jack from Tom and Jack. He was bored the past few days and recalled the cartoons he watched when he was a child.
"Yiyi, give this painting to me as a gift."
Lin Yi scratched his head, thinking that this simple drawing could still be given away? A few words written by Shui Han are worth more than this...
"This kind of painting is not worthy of elegance, hahaha... Who are you giving it to?"
"Qin Zhe."
Lin Yi almost choked on the air. Is this painting a wedding gift?
Qin Shuihan picked up the pen and ink and wrote the word "Shuo Rat" directly next to the painting.
Lin Yi burst out laughing, so that's it.
"Shuihan, you are so bad!"
