    After Qin Yuan sat down, the carriage started and drove for a while, getting further and further away from the majestic palace wall and heading towards the bustling streets of Chang'an.

    After walking around half of the city, Qin Yuan opened the curtain and looked out, and saw that not far ahead was Shuangyan Lane where Jinghaihou Mansion was located. Knowing that she was almost home, she calmed down, pursed her lips, and slowly opened the curtain.  lay down.

    The cold wind flowed into the carriage as she opened the curtains, causing her to cough again. The maid next to her hurriedly rubbed her back, took out a small medicine bottle from her bag, and put it under her nose for her to smell.  .

    Although the fragrance of the medicine in the bottle is light, it is full of pungency. In normal times, Qin Yuan would not be able to bear it and would have to sneeze constantly, but now it was strangely related to her illness. She sniffed for a while, and the cool breath followed her.  The nose rushed straight into it, and the chest cavity instantly felt a lot of warmth, and the cough was relieved.

    She calmed down her breathing, took the medicine bottle and played with it in her hand, thinking casually that she had long heard that Yu Ruoshui was famous for his superb medical skills and reputation all over the world. Now it seems that his reputation is indeed well-deserved. She can barely let down her guard a little if she lets him treat her in the future.

    Arriving at the gate of the mansion, all the old servants of Jinghaihou Mansion had already lined up and were waiting at the door with bated breaths. Many women had red eyes because they had not seen the young lady for a long time.

    After entering the mansion, Qin Yuan couldn't help but walk slowly, looking around as she walked, and saw that everything in the mansion had not changed, and still maintained its original appearance. She looked so friendly, and turned back to the chief steward with satisfaction: "During this period,  Thank you for your hard work."

    The chief steward choked his voice and did not even dare to say anything.

    When she arrived at the inner courtyard, Qin Yuan was not in a hurry to go back to her boudoir and went to the main courtyard first.

    The furnishings in the main room are exactly the same as when she left. To be precise, since her mother's death, everything in the room has been preserved by her father almost paranoidly. It has remained the same for fourteen years.

    She walked to the dressing table, raised her hand to test the non-existent dust on the audition surface, took a look at the face in the glasses that was said to be very similar to her mother, turned around with half interest, and walked to the window to play with the pair.  Beauty shoulder glaze bottle.

    After looking at every place, Fang took the three sticks of incense handed over by the servant, knelt down in front of a pair of memorial tablets enshrined in the main room, and held the incense in silence while looking at the tablets.

    After a long time, he slowly leaned over and kowtowed heavily.

    ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª

    In the evening, after taking a bath and taking medicine, Qin Yuan went to bed and lay down.

    When I was in the palace, I had so much to plan that I couldn't sleep three out of ten nights. Now that I'm back home, I can finally let go of my guard and finally have a night's rest.

    Closing my eyes, I was just about to feel sleepy when I suddenly remembered the scene when I met Qu Qinyao at the palace gate this morning, and I opened my eyes uneasily. The woman spoke very strangely at that time. Could it be that she has discovered something?

    Thieves?  Why do robbers appear in Chang'an City every time?  Is she being mysterious, or does she mean something?

    After thinking for a while, she glanced out the window, and she slowly felt relieved. There were people sent by the prince to guard the house. No matter whether the banditry was true or not, she would never dare to deceive Jinghai because of the power of the royal family.  The head of the Hou Mansion came up.

    Thinking of this, she turned over with relief, a smile on her lips, and closed her eyes again.

    ¡°Maybe it¡¯s been a long time since I slept at home. After this sleep, I fell into a deep sleep. I didn¡¯t even hear the sound of fighting outside.

    In a trance, he was woken up by a strong push, "Miss, Miss! Wake up quickly! There are robbers in the house!"

    It was the voice of maid Luyun.

    Thieves?  She closed her eyes and sighed softly. Sure enough, she had been thinking about it all day and dreaming about it at night. However, after thinking about it for a while before going to bed, she actually dreamed of the robber after falling asleep.

    But Lu Yun¡¯s voice became more and more urgent, with a life-threatening energy, right next to his ears, which couldn¡¯t be more real.

    She was frightened, and opened her eyes suddenly, and saw many servants hugging the bed. Everyone looked frightened as never before. Seeing that she was awake, they said in a trembling voice: "Miss! There are really robbers outside, miss."  , don¡¯t delay, run for your life quickly.¡±

    what happened?  Did the robbers really break in?

    Qin Yuan was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly got out of bed, letting the servants hurriedly put the cloak on her, and looked out the window calmly as much as she could.

    Sure enough, the sky in the front yard was dimly visible, and it was obviously brightly lit. The sounds of fierce fighting and the sound of weapons hitting were unmistakable.

    "Miss! Don't delay!" The door suddenly opened, and a maid climbed up on her hands and knees, crying: "The thief has already entered the inner courtyard! He will go straight to our courtyard soon."

    Qin Yuan turned pale and asked: "Where are the guards? Where are the people sent by the prince? "

    It¡¯s not like you can¡¯t resist a few thieves!

     "I don't know!" The maid cried desperately and shook her head. "I only heard that there were many bandits. Most of the guards in the house were chopped and wounded. Even Manager Chen was killed by the bandits' swords. They were not those bandits at all.  opponent."

    Qin Yuan gritted her teeth, knowing that there was something wrong with these thieves!  No, I'm afraid they are not thieves at all, seeking revenge is the real thing!

    Without further delay, she wrapped herself tightly in her fur coat and walked out quickly.

    Walking into the courtyard, Qin Yuan turned around and said to the lost maids with concern: "We simply go through the back door. I wonder if the thieves will break in through the front door. Will they send someone to guard the back door soon?"

    Before he finished speaking, there was a crash from outside the hospital, like the sound of something heavy falling to the ground, and the sound of fighting was already very close at hand.

    The maids were so frightened that they rushed out of the courtyard and rushed towards the back door of the mansion.

    In the chaos, no one cared about Gu Qinyuan.

    Qin Yuan followed the crowd and took two steps. Taking advantage of the crowd's unpreparedness, she turned around and hurried back to the courtyard. She pushed open a side room where sundries were usually placed, ducked in, and then turned around and closed the door.

    There were several large cabinets standing against the wall in the room. She walked to one of the cabinets, opened the cabinet door, reached out and groped inside, and then heard the sound of heavy objects moving, and a secret passage appeared in front of her eyes.

    She leaned in, closed the cupboard door, and walked along the secret passage for a while. A door reappeared on the wall. She pushed it open and arrived at a deserted house.

    This house was the one that had been abandoned for hundreds of years next to the Jinghai Marquis Mansion. She straightened her clothes and stood in the deserted garden and listened for a while. She heard that there was still a fierce fight not far away, so she hesitated to continue hiding.  In the deserted house, it is better to use this time to escape from Shuangyan Alley.

    Suddenly I heard several men's voices coming from far and near, "I heard that Miss Hou in the mansion has escaped. I think that such a delicate and rich young lady, even if she escapes from the mansion, she can't run very far. We are here  If you look around a lot, you may not be sure where she is hiding."

    "Hey, brother, isn't this a house? Could it be that the lady is hiding inside? Let's go in and search!"

    Qin Yuan's face became extremely ugly. She raised her eyes and saw an ancient tree not far away. With a fixed gaze, she ran to the tree as fast as possible, groped on the ground, opened the secret door, and went down to the tunnel.

    Only she and her grandfather knew about this tunnel. Earlier, she had walked back and forth countless times without even lighting. With her eyes closed, she knew where the narrowest place was and where to turn.

    After walking for a long time, she reached the end of the tunnel. She stopped, touched the steps on the wall, and walked up the steps lightly. He knew that there was a very concealed but light dark board above his head. He only needed to push it gently.  Then you can get out of the tunnel.

    Reaching the top of the steps, she pushed open the dark panel skillfully. Her eyes were dim, and her nose was filled with the unique smell of wood lacquer in deserted temples.

    She was completely relieved and cautiously exited the tunnel. Just as she was about to stand up, there was a sound of footsteps and the temple suddenly lit up.

    The hair on her body stood up, and she watched the person opposite walk from the darkness to the light. The person was still as cold and handsome as when she first met him, but unfortunately there was no smile on his face. He looked at her and said, "It is indeed you.  "

    She looked at Lin Xiao coldly, but another person came next to her. The person ignored her and squatted directly at the entrance of the tunnel. He looked at the light wooden board, touched his chin and thought: "I remember that I did it for this wooden board."  , I used to be puzzled by the explanation, I didn¡¯t want to wrongly accuse a good person, and I never wanted to cast doubt on you, but now I finally understand.¡±

    Qin Yuan looked at Qin Yao fiercely and sneered: "So what if it's me? Even if I know this tunnel, what evidence do you have to prove that I have harmed people?"

    Those women in Pingkangfang were as lowly and filthy as the mud under their feet. They were worthless even if they were alive. When she thinks about it, she still feels clear conscience.

    When she said this, her expression was fierce, completely different from her usual timid and delicate appearance.

    It's a pity that she only looked at Lin Xiao and Qin Yao, and never noticed that there was a person hiding behind the dilapidated curtains in the palace. The person was wearing bright yellow clothes, and the five-clawed dragon embroidery pattern specially made by the prince of this dynasty was faintly visible on the clothes. When Qin Yuan said this  , the fists falling by his side were clenched unconsciously.
