After Qin Feng left the prison, he was not in a hurry to go home. Instead, he went to the Forbidden Palace and planned to plead with Emperor Liang.
Even if Xie Bi cannot be pardoned, he can at least postpone the execution date and buy a few more days.
As a result, before even entering the palace gate, the imperial army closed the gate and blocked him back.
Not surprisingly!
Xie Bi was in trouble, not only because of Li Qian's killer move, but also because of a multiple-choice question thrown by Emperor Liang to Qin Feng.
If he gives up Xie Bi, then Qin Feng can still participate in the peace talks and make further contributions to Daliang.
On the contrary, the only way to save Xie Bi is to escape from prison.
Once he is charged with this crime, Qin Feng's lifetime achievements will be wiped out in an instant.
By then, Qin Feng will be just a self-respecting warlord, and it will be much easier to deal with him then.
If you take a step forward, you will be beyond redemption; if you take a step back, your glory will continue.
In other words, the current saint seems to have taken the threat from Qin Feng more seriously than Beidi.
I would rather the peace talks be affected, but I would take advantage of this rare opportunity to hit Qin Feng hard.
There are still five days left. These five days will not only determine Xie Bi's life and death, but also the future of the Qin family.
As everyone knows...
Qin Feng had already prepared for the worst, but he must not give up trying other methods until the last moment.
These short five days passed very quickly.
In the blink of an eye, it was already the fourth day, and there was still no news from Xie Yuner, just when Qin Feng was about to give up.
A miracle happened!
In the evening, Qin Xiaofu ran back panting, shouting as he ran: "Master, Miss Xie is back!"
Qin Feng's heart trembled, and he rushed to the front yard in three steps and two steps at a time, just in time to see Xie Yun'er walking towards him.
After not seeing each other for a few days, Xie Yun'er looked much haggard, and his once bright eyes had become cloudy.
"Yun'er, where have you been!"
"I almost turned the whole Kyoto upside down."
Seeing Xie Yun'er's current appearance, Qin Feng's heart was bleeding. He rushed forward and hugged Xie Yun'er.
Xie Yun'er's body trembled slightly, and she buried her head on Qin Feng's shoulder.
The grievances I suffered these days burst out all at once.
The violent girl who made the people of Kyoto frightened was like a wounded little sheep, just looking for someone to rely on.
Even if you can only get a moment of peace.
Qin Feng wanted to ask Xie Yun'er where he was hiding, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.
The only thing Qin Feng has to do now is to appease Xie Yun'er.
As for other things, we can leave it to later.
Qin Xiaofu left wisely, and before leaving, he also drove away the servants around him who didn't know the truth.
In the entire courtyard, only Qin Feng and Xie Yuner were left.
Just hug each other and rely on each other.
I don't know how long it took before Xie Yun'er finally spoke, but his voice, which was once full of energy, became extremely fragile.
"sorry that I had you worried."
As soon as these words came out, all the indignation and worry in Qin Feng's heart disappeared in an instant.
Qin Feng gently stroked Xie Yun'er's back, trying to keep his tone as gentle as possible.
"It's good to be back, Yun'er, you have to remember that no matter what happens, I'm still here."
"I will never let you face the predicament in front of you alone."
Xie Yun'er hummed slightly and leaned her head on Qin Feng's shoulder.
The tears fell silently, wetting Qin Feng's shoulders.
Xie Yuner never mentioned where he had gone.
Qin Feng also tacitly agreed not to inquire into the details. As long as Xie Yun'er came back, it would be a blessing in misfortune.
It wasn't until Xie Yun'er's mood gradually calmed down that Qin Feng took her back to the backyard and quickly sent the servants to prepare meals.
Due to the hasty preparation, the dishes are very simple, with a total of three items, vegetables, meat and soup.
Xie Yun'er lowered her head and ate silently. It was obvious that she had hardly eaten seriously these days, and she looked a little embarrassed when eating.
Qin Feng sat quietly aside, accompanying Xie Yun'er, and from time to time, he would give her a piece of food with chopsticks.
After eating and drinking, Xie Yun'er put down his bowls and chopsticks without getting up. He just sat at the dinner table and stared at Qin Feng.
The eyes are unpredictable.
Sometimes happy, sometimes sad, sometimes resentful.
Qin Feng knew that whether it was the dissolution of the engagement or Xie Bi's imprisonment, it would be a huge blow to Xie Yun'er.
Qin Feng had been brewing for a long time and was about to say a few words of comfort, but Xie Yun'er spoke first.
"I'm tired. I'll stay at the Qin Mansion tonight, okay?"
Qin Feng endured his heartache, reached out and touched Xie Yun'er's hair, and said with a bitter smile: "Silly girl, this is your home."
"You can stay here as long as you want."
Xie Yun'er forced a smile and nodded gently, looking extremely well-behaved.
This kind of well-behaved and sensible person who has experienced great things, ups and downs, is the most heart-wrenching.
Qin Feng took Xie Yun'er to the guest room and prepared the bedding for her with his own hands.
Xie Yun'er was very tired and fell asleep. After covering her with a quilt, Qin Feng closed the door and left.
Qin Feng was not sleepy at first, but the big stone that was weighing on his heart fell to the ground and he felt a lot more relaxed instantly. Therefore, he fell asleep soon after returning to the room.
Early the next morning, Qin Feng was woken up by Comrade Lao Qin.
"Feng'er, how do you solve the problem of thanking uncle?"
Although Lao Qin didn't say it explicitly, today is Xie Bi's execution day.
According to the rules, the execution will be carried out at noon, which is only two hours from now.
Qin Feng sat in the lobby without saying a word, his head running rapidly, thinking about all possible solutions.
In the end, there was still nothing.
Do you really want to rob the law field? !
Although this road meant a narrow escape from death, as the lord of Beixi County, Qin Feng could never give up on Xie Bi.
After all, the fundamental purpose of settling down in Beixi County is to never abandon a companion.
Qin Feng took a deep breath, and the hesitation in his eyes disappeared, and he became extremely determined.
"Ning Hu, gather the troops!"
Ning Hu, who had been standing silently beside him, his eyes lit up: "I have been waiting for your words for a long time!"
"Brothers have finished dressing up and are ready to go at any time."
Hearing this, Qin Feng smiled knowingly, it was worth it to have such a brother in this life!
Qin Feng no longer hesitated and immediately began to make the final arrangements.
"Ning Hu, in this battle, we will definitely bear a heinous crime, and everyone involved will inevitably die."
"While there is still time, you should go home immediately, arrange for your family, and leave Kyoto together."
Seeing Ning Hu standing there with no sign of anxiety between his brows, Qin Feng couldn't help but frown.
"What are you still doing? Hurry up!"
Ning Hu held his head high and grinned very proudly: "Do you even need to say this?"
"In the past few days, I have seen you unable to do anything, so I know the outcome of today."
"So, I made arrangements early in the morning."
"My parents and family have all packed up their belongings and are ready to go at any time."
"Hey, Marquis Yong'an, as long as you are in Kyoto, you may have to move your head at any time."
"My Ning family doesn't care! It's better to go to Beixi County and live happily!"
