In the past few days after arriving in Xizhou City, Su Qi'an has not been idle. He has been secretly searching for clues about Qin Huai's disappearance.
After Su Qian's investigation, he actually found something.
Qin Huai was framed by Wei Yang for cheating, had his honors revoked and was kicked out of the examination room, and then disappeared.
This is just what Su Qi'an learned in the county town. After arriving in the state town, there was actually a long gap between Qin Huai being kicked out of the examination room and disappearing.
For at least half a month, after Qinhuai failed the state examination, he did not return to Lingbei County, but stayed in the state city.
Passers-by once saw Qin Huai wandering around several powerful families in the city, looking for something.
And it is this kind of wandering that eventually leads to disappearance, and thus no one knows whether he is alive or dead.
To some extent, Qin Huai's disappearance is probably related to these powerful families.
This is why Su Qi'an dared to cause trouble in Xiancai Tower.
Su Qi'an is not an arrogant person, but after arriving in Zhoucheng, Su Qi'an's expression was extremely arrogant.
This was actually Su Qian's plan, and his identity was revealed.
When he came to Zhoucheng, he didn't need to think about it. All the information about Su Qi'an had been stripped away.
This is exactly what Su Qi'an wants. Only if he shows great strength can the missing Qin Huai have the greatest chance of survival.
If anyone dares to touch Qin Huai, given Su Qi'an's temperament, Xizhou City will be turned upside down.
For no other reason than Su Qi'an being conferred the title of Dongshan Bo by the imperial court.
In Xizhou City, an earl is nothing, but if Su Qi'an, the Duke of Dongshan, has to weigh it up.
It is impossible for a talented man to come back alive from the border battlefield without means.
Those who are hiding behind the scenes and want to take action against Qin Huai must carefully consider Su Qi'an's revenge.
It was this kind of intimidation that allowed Su Qi'an to buy more time to search for Qin Huai.
Su Qi'an had a hunch that he was about to find Qin Huai.
Rumors from the outside world are still abuzz, but Su Qi'an, who returned to Su's house, is quite low-key.
For a time, all the forces were confused and had no idea what this uncle was thinking.
As for the spies at the door, they had been removed long ago, and there was no surveillance on the entire street opposite Su's house.
Uncle Su's reputation is quite resounding in Xizhou City. No one wants to be displeased by Su Qi'an due to surveillance, which would be very troublesome.
Simply give up the surveillance. Anyway, you have already understood part of this uncle's temperament. Let's take your time with the rest.
As time passed, the sky gradually became dark, and the Su residence where Su Qi'an was located was very peaceful. .
On the street outside, there was only the occasional snoring and the occasional chirping of cicadas coming from the room, which felt very pleasant.
This kind of comfort did not last long, and then was broken by bursts of hurried footsteps.
The footsteps were mixed with noise. Su Qi'an did not fall asleep. He sat in the yard and listened quietly to the noise outside the wall.
After a while, Lieutenant Wang rushed over and said to Su Qi'an, "Mr. Zhen, the movement outside is from the soldiers of the Prefecture and City. I heard them say they are arresting the snitch."
"Snitch?"
"That's right. It is said that this snitch was so good at light martial arts that he sneaked into the state capital secretly. He was eventually discovered. Now the soldiers of the state are tracking him down."
"Haha, there are actually snitches in Xizhou City. It's interesting. By the way, don't be careless. I ordered you to go down and arrange a few more sentries for strict patrols."
"These days, it seems that even the city is no longer safe."
"Well, these subordinates have already given their orders. It's nothing. I will leave."
Su Qian nodded, and Colonel Wang turned and left.
The noise of the soldiers outside did not last long. After almost ten minutes, the footsteps of the soldiers disappeared.
Su Qian sat in the small courtyard for half an hour. As the temperature dropped, the air
A chill filled the air, and Su Qian stood up and returned to the room.
When Su Qi'an returned to the room, she did not go to bed to rest. Instead, she sat at the desk and read a book.
This habit has been maintained by Su Qi'an since she came to Great Liang. Every time before falling asleep, she must take a look at it. Over time, it became a habit.
The candlelight flickered, and the room was very quiet, except for the occasional scraping sound of turning the pages of a book.
Su Qi'an kept this posture for a long time, as if he was sitting still. After looking at it for an unknown amount of time, Su Qi'an closed the page and blew out the candle.
I thought Su Qi'an would go to rest, but sitting behind the desk, he suddenly spoke.
"Your patience is the most enduring among all the people I have seen. Aren't you going to show up yet? I'm tired after hiding for so long."
As soon as these words came out, there were obviously different fluctuations in the quiet air, and then, from behind the bed on Su Qian's right, a figure came out from the darkness.
Although there was no candlelight in the room, the presence of human figures could still be roughly seen with the occasional moonlight coming from the window.
This man was wearing night clothes, his face was covered, and he was tall. His eyes were fixed on Su Qi'an, he was silent for a while, and then he spoke.
"How did you find me?"
The voice of the voice made Su Qian a little surprised, because this person turned out to be a woman.
Su Qian shook her head and said, "Is this important?"
"In this case, you discovered me, so I have to send you on your way."
The next moment, the female snitch swung her clenched hands towards Su Qi'an's position.
Several steel needles were fired at extremely high speed.
The speed was so fast and silent that Su Qian did not dodge in a hurry. His body stiffened and he lay directly on the table.
The female snitch standing by the bed shook her head and said in a cold voice, "After being hit by my pear blossom needle, you probably have no ability to resist. I'm sorry. For safety's sake, I had to take this step. Just have a good sleep." .”
Immediately, the masked female snitch walked towards the window behind Su Qi'an, preparing to escape from this place.
Suddenly a pair of big hands grabbed her arm, and a figure clearly appeared behind her.
The female snitch was shocked, and just about to struggle and resist, the next moment, her body went limp, and the palm she swung out completely lost all strength.
Her head was dizzy, her eyes were dark, and the next moment she fell into Su Qian's arms.
This was not Su Qi'an's method, but she was injured herself, bleeding excessively from her lower abdomen, and fainted all of a sudden.
Su Qi'an really didn't expect this situation, and there was a faint fragrance lingering in her nose.
Su Qi'an touched her nose, looked at the unconscious female snitch, shook her head and said, "Is this considered blackmail?"
"Hey, that's alright. Seeing that you're not bad at heart, I should do something good."
If the female snitch had really killed her just now, it would not be that easy for Su Qi'an to deal with her.
The next day, the light from the sky illuminated the room, and when the light moved up, there was a bed.
A woman was lying peacefully on the bed. The woman was young, only about eighteen or nineteen years old.
A standard oval face, very delicate. Although the face is pale, this face is very beautiful.
Su Qi'an stood on the bed, looking at the woman in front of him and sighing. In terms of appearance, this person is not inferior to Lu Xiaowan.
If you look carefully, you can see that there is a faint noble temperament.
It is not an exaggeration to say that this kind of person is the daughter of a wealthy family, but it is a pity that she is a snitch.
Just when Su Qian was sighing, the woman with her eyes closed, her eyelashes trembled, and after a while she slowly opened her eyes.
When she saw Su Qi'an standing in front of her, the woman stood up sharply and gestured with her palms to attack.
But soon a pain came from her lower abdomen, which made the woman look ugly and her body stopped moving.
Su Qian shook her head and said, "Don't move. If the medicine you just changed makes the wound collapse, it will be troublesome to change it again."
"Don't even think about taking action. You are no match for me now. You should just take good care of yourself."
Listening to what Su Qian said, the woman lowered her head to check her injuries. It was obvious that there was a circle of gauze wrapped around her lower abdomen.
The woman nodded, but soon as if she thought of something, she raised her head sharply, with an unhappy expression on her face, a hint of shyness, and said angrily.
"My clothes...were you changed into?"
After hearing this, Su Qi'an's expression suddenly turned strange. He hesitated for a while and then stammered.
"Um, girl, please understand that at that time, it was too late and it was impossible to find the doctor. Plus you were bleeding too much, so..."
"You rascal!" The woman's face was angry and she threw the pillow over.
Su Qi'an continued to explain, "Girl, don't be angry. This is Su's fault. But Su promises that I was involved in changing the dressing, but the maids in the house did the changing of clothes. Su feels that No taking advantage of others’ danger.”
"Get out!" the woman yelled, throwing another pillow at Su Qi'an.
Su Qian could only dodge in embarrassment.
What does this mean? Could it be that you are a gentleman and are only responsible for applying medicine and changing clothes, but you didn't see anything, or you only saw half of it?
Su Qi'an also knew that he was in the wrong, apologized repeatedly, and quickly exited the room.
Su Qi'an, who was standing outside the door, shook his head helplessly. In that situation, only Su Qi'an knew how to apply medicine and bandage. Others, including the maid, could not. It wasted time, but it cost a life.
Besides, it was late at night, so how could Su Qi'an be in the mood to peek at anything, and having said that, he really didn't see anything.
Although it feels reasonable, this is Da Liang after all. After all, you have touched the girl's body to some extent, which is immoral to begin with. Whatever you say is wrong.
Su Qi'an didn't think much about it. It was his own fault that this happened, so just accept his fate.
Su Qi'an stood outside the door for a long time, almost an hour, before knocking on the door lightly.
There was no movement in the house. After a long time, a woman's voice came.
This time when Su Qian entered the room, the woman's mood was obviously much more stable. Although there was a bit of anger on her face, it was much calmer than before.
Women are not unable to communicate. Through communication, Su Qi'an knew that the woman's name was Ajiu.
You knew this name was a fake name as soon as you heard it, but Su Qi'an didn't mean to expose it. After all, no one has any secrets when walking outside, especially a female snitch like this.
As long as this person is not hostile to you, you can call him whatever you like.
