It was not until Zhao Rixin came back that Chou Chou took back his consciousness to protect him.
However, Qingyan was also prepared to find an opportunity to let him know that he was being watched, so as to avoid being careless in the future and capsizing the boat in the gutter.
After Zhao Rixin returned to her house, Qingyan could sleep peacefully. She would go to Xue Minghua's place tomorrow morning to tell her, so that he would not know that he would come here to look for her, which would easily expose her secrets.
Again, when acting, you have to do the whole thing.
As for the palace, she also had to go there, at least for a formality, and treat it as saying goodbye in advance. If the plan couldn't keep up with the change, she might leave directly.
So I won’t enter the space today and go to bed early. I still have a whole morning of running tomorrow.
When they got up the next morning, Qingyan and Zhao Rixin ate together in the front hall and then went their separate ways. Before going out, Qingyan reminded him. After Zhao Rixin went out, he discovered the two monitored positions.
Although the two people pretended to be passing by, it turned out that they hadn't slept all night. Zhao Rixin broke out in a cold sweat and didn't know if the news of his visit to Prince Jin's Mansion last night had been passed back.
He walked quickly towards the Court of Justice. Although he had already made a plan, he still wanted to show his concern for the latest progress of the investigation there.
It happened that King Jin was also there. After all, it was him who the killer confessed to, and now he was related to him, so it was normal for him to follow up there.
When he went over there, he could tell Prince Jin about this discovery and see if he should make plans again.
Qingyan went directly to Xue Minghua's house and told her that she was leaving. Even if it was false, she couldn't say it clearly. She couldn't reveal Zhao Rixin's plan. If word spread from here, it would be troublesome.
As for coming back, things should be over by then, and it won't be too late.
Xue Minghua was reluctant to leave her for a while, and prepared a lot of gifts for her. Fortunately, there were no big ones. Except for some clothes and jewelry, which were just for food, Qingyan did not refuse.
After that, the two of them entered the palace together. Xue Minghua often went into the palace to accompany the queen, so the guards did not stop him. They waited at the palace gate for a while until they got to the harem, and let someone go in to let them know.
Within a moment, they were invited into Funing Palace. He Linling had prepared refreshments and was waiting for them.
Qingyan told He Linling that she would be leaving in the next two days. Because Zhao Rixin had not determined the time yet, and she didn't know whether she would leave today, tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, she only talked about these two days.
Today I came here specifically to say goodbye. Naturally, He Linling was reluctant to leave her and prepared many gifts for her. She had been preparing these things since Qingyan arrived and asked her to take them with her when she left.
After all, Qingyan told her when they first met that she was just passing through the capital and would stay here for a few days before heading south to look for her parents, so she couldn't leave him behind.
She took Qingyan's hand and told her to be more careful on the road alone. She also asked her to protect herself and not to take advantage of the boldness of talented people to get into trouble easily. It would be bad if she got involved.
Although if Qingyan hadn't been nosy in the past, her son might have been in danger this time, but minding her own son's business is definitely different from minding other people's, so she still told Qingyan to put her own safety first.
Qingyan did not refute, but listened attentively and nodded in agreement.
Judging from He Linling's appearance, he probably didn't know that Zhao Rixin was assassinated again in the capital, otherwise he would definitely have to ask. After all, she lived in the second prince's mansion, so she should know better.
I don’t know if this plan can be known to the Emperor and Queen. In fact, she said it would be better if the fewer people know about it, the more people who know will inevitably reveal clues.
She chatted with He Linling for a while, and had lunch with Xue Minghua in the palace before leaving. She sent Xue Minghua back to the Yang Mansion, and then took the carriage back to the Prince's Mansion.
When we came out, the carriage was empty. When we came back, there were three more big boxes, one given by Xue Minghua and two by the queen He Linling.
Zhao Rixin returned home in the afternoon, and the two of them sat down in the study room in the front yard to discuss their plans.
They had agreed to leave early tomorrow morning. As for carriages, they would drive two, and Qingyan would definitely drive the one.
She drove the carriage when she came here. She couldn't leave without the carriage.
Then Zhao Rixin and Uncle Liu drove a carriage. Although it was safer for them to share a carriage, there was something wrong with it. He couldn't go out on errands and not even catch a carriage.
You can take Qingyan when you go out, but what about when you come back? You can't just go and never come back, it doesn't make sense.
Moreover, Uncle Liu is very skilled and can also act as a guard.
Although at first they thought of going out without escorts, thinking that this way the other party would be able to relax their vigilance, but later they thought it was wrong.
The words of the two of them alone make it even more suspicious. Qingyan going out alone is already very suspicious. After all, it is easy for a little girl with no ability to go out alone to make people think too much. She must have martial arts skills.
So I refined my plan and brought Uncle Liu with me just to be on the safe side, so that the other party wouldn't find it strange. Anyone who knew him well would know that Uncle Liu was the bodyguard and coachman of the second prince.
I didn't bring any other guards. It wouldn't work if I brought one or two. If there were too many, I was afraid of causing unnecessary casualties, and I was worried that the other party would be too frightened to take action.
Qingyan also told him about saying goodbye to Xue Minghua and the Queen today. Zhao Rixin nodded, this was better and would not make people suspicious.
He also said that only he, Prince Jin, and Qingyan knew about this matter, and no one else knew about it. Even Uncle Liu thought that the second prince was just on official errands.
Qingyan didn't have anything to pack. The things she bought were all in storage bags and Chou Chou's space.
The Queen and Xue Minghua put some things on the surface for eating, and there were so many that Chou Chou received them in the fresh-keeping area and could take them out to eat at any time.
Clothes and other items are placed on the carriage. It doesn’t take up much space anyway and can be placed in the cabinet under the seat of the carriage.
Early the next morning, two carriages came out of the side gate of the Prince's Mansion. After leaving the inner city, they headed directly towards the south gate. Chen Liu was directly south of the capital.
The two carriages went one behind the other, with Qingyan driving Da Xiong behind and Uncle Liu driving the carriage in front.
First, she didn't know the location very well. Although she had the consciousness to find the way, there was no need to go to any trouble on her own since she was being taken by someone who knew the route.
Moreover, walking behind can better protect the other person. It is better to keep the person within her sight than to be in front while the other person is behind. If the enemy comes from behind, even if she reacts quickly, she is afraid that the two of them will be injured.
Originally, Yuanbao could enter the space after leaving the capital, but once Yuanbao upgraded, he didn't know when he would be able to come out, and the journey only took one day. Zhao Rixin and Uncle Liu would definitely ask if they couldn't see it, so they might as well just stay outside. Just hold on for two more days.
I don't know if their plan was too successful, or if the other party really couldn't bear it anymore.
Just ten miles away from the capital, they encountered a group of ambushes. They originally thought they would encounter them on the mountain road. After all, it was easier to hide there and escape after doing things.
I don't know if the other party is too confident and thinks they can kill them in one fell swoop, or if they think it will be more unexpected in such a plain area.
Of course, if Qingyan had no consciousness, the other party would indeed be caught by surprise, because they were farmers pretending to work in the fields and were scattered in the fields on the roadside. At least Uncle Liu and Zhao Rixin didn't notice any clues.
But Qingyan still discovered a problem, because she and Zhao Rixin were different. They grew up in the capital and did not know about farming, but Qingyan did.
Just the fact that they were working in the farmland exposed those people. Not to mention that Qingyan had spiritual consciousness and saw that they were just pretending to work.
Even if Qingyan didn't have consciousness, she would still doubt them. It's winter, and even if it's not like the northeast and northwest regions where there's a cat winter, there's not much work to do in the crop fields.
Who would go to the ground to weed and play in the cold weather? One look at these killers shows that they know nothing about farming and have no common sense.
So when Qingyan was far away, she stepped forward to remind Uncle Liu and Zhao Rixin that there was something wrong with the people in front of them and told them to be careful.
Uncle Liu and Zhao Rixin both picked up the weapons at hand, especially Zhao Rixin. He did not expect the assassination to come so soon.
At the same time, I was also a little worried. No matter how good Qingyan's skills were, if there were many people on the other side, there would inevitably be fish that slipped through the net and came to them, so it was better to be prepared for battle.
Yuanbao jumped directly into Qingyan's arms and arched his waist excitedly. He had no energy to use now. He was ready to have a good fight. He must use up the excess energy first, otherwise he would not be able to bear it. Advancement, I can hardly hold it in anymore.
When the carriage was about to approach those people, those people first pretended to be chatting and laughing, and walked out of the fields, as if they were finishing their farm work and were preparing to go home. They didn't just go straight this way when they saw them. rush.
Qingyan nodded in her heart. This was a good point. She also knew not to expose herself in advance and to paralyze the other party first, which was a bit of a strategy.
When their carriage approached, those people happened to reach the edge of the official road, and then they quickened their pace and surrounded them.
They were already prepared, and Qingyan would not let them gather around her before taking action. Instead, she got up from the car and headed towards the people surrounding her on the left, while handing Yuan Bao over on the other side.
One person on one side, they were shooting left and right. Qingyan did not hold a weapon, and faced five people with spears with bare hands. They had disguised their spears as hoes before, and when they pulled out the front, the spear tip inside was revealed.
Qingyan relied solely on her huge strength to directly fight against those people.
The kung fu of the people who came this time was not as high as that of the five killers last time. They only had a few more moves than ordinary people. Their movements were wide open, without much skill, and they relied entirely on brute force.
He doesn't look like a professional killer who engages in assassinations, but more like a soldier or a thug guarding the hospital.
Because their movements are so similar, they were trained by the same master.
They came in two directions, with five people on Qingyan's side and six on Yuanbao's side. Although they wanted to rob and kill them, they did not dare to come with too many people. After all, it was too suspicious to see a large group of people on the plain. They were far away. If you see it from a distance, avoid it.
So there were only about ten people in total, and obviously not many if they were spread out.
Uncle Liu and Zhao Rixin were holding their knives and preparing to attack, but they found that they had nothing to do and could only watch.
Especially Uncle Liu, who looked at Qingyan and Yuanbao in shock, feeling that in the blink of an eye, eleven people had been eliminated.
Forget about Qingyan, he knew from his master that this girl was a martial arts master. Even though he was a little suspicious when he saw her weak figure, he was still somewhat mentally prepared.
Seeing the other party's neat punches and kicks knocking people away, although I was surprised, I could accept it.
What made him unable to recover the most was Yuanbao's cat. Before, he only thought it was more spiritual than the gray civet cat in the Prince's Mansion, and it was also bigger and fatter.
But every day I see it clinging to its master, acting like a coquettish and lazy person, or basking in the sun in the yard, I never expected that this cat is also an expert!
This is not spirituality, this is becoming a spirit! The way each claw looks like it is no less generous than its owner.
Because it had been agreed before that it would be enough to lure the snake out of its hole and know which family they came from by giving orders and taking actions, so Qingyan did not kill them all, but only injured them and lost the ability to act again.
Most of them had their hands and feet removed by her, or were beaten to the point of fracture. They were injured but not fatal.
The same goes for Yuanbao. Qingyan also told him not to go up and rub people's necks with his paws, killing them with one move. All he had to do was cripple their hands and feet, so Yuanbao always followed their tendons and hamstrings to make them Loss of ability to move.
Although she could not leave him alive, since protecting Zhao Rixin's safety came first, there was no need to do more killings.
The eleven people's legs and feet were disabled and they were placed directly on both sides of the road. Zhao Rixin released the homing pigeons in his hands. This was prepared in advance. King Jin would send people over to clean up the mess.
They continued to move forward. This wave may not be the only one behind them, so they did not lower their vigilance. Chenliu was still more than fifty miles away. If they were to go there again, they might not be able to get there before dark. , so it didn’t stop.
Qingyan sat on the shaft of the car and washed Yuanbao's paws with water, dried it with a cloth, and then held it in her arms again.
Yuanbao grumbled in her arms, complaining that she disliked him and felt that fighting with these people was a bit unsatisfactory.
It is now a bit ferocious, and wants to kill people with its claws, but it also knows that it is best not to do this. After all, it still needs to practice and cannot kill indiscriminately.
Qingyan patted its head comfortingly and gave it some water from the Water Lingzhu Pond to drink. (End of chapter)
