51: Before being punished(1/2)
In the vast team, everyone lowered their heads and looked sad. No one noticed that Nalan Yunye slowly walked away from the crowd.
Kang Anan kept walking, his legs were sore and weak that he was unwilling to stop. The maid around him couldn't bear to see it anymore and persuaded softly, "Miss, you have sent the master a long way, please go back! If you do this, the master will be reluctant to leave!"
"I still want to send my grandfather to another trip, and I still want to talk to him. You guys go back first!" Kang Anan spoke lightly, and still strides forward. Many people have already returned along the other road.
"Miss, the master will feel distressed when he sees you like this. You can't bear to leave the master, but you have to think about the children in your stomach!" The maid saw that Kang Anan's face was not very good, and was afraid that she would not be able to stand such a long way, so she spoke out again to persuade him.
child?
After hearing the maid mention the child, Kang Anan stopped like a dream and felt a little uncomfortable in her lower abdomen.
"Peace, help me to the wooden stake beside me for a rest!".
On the front of the right, there are tree roots and wooden stakes placed, which seem to be able to rest when people are tired.
"Okay!" The pavilion wiped his tears and helped Kang An'an walk over.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I walked to the wooden stake and before I could sit down, two teams of officers and soldiers from the government rushed towards them and surrounded them.
"Miss..." The pavilion had never seen this scene before. He was a little scared. He held Kang An'an's hands tightly, and his face also showed a look of fear.
Kang An'an raised his eyelids and sat down on the wooden stake. Then he patted the other one and said to the pavilion, "Don't worry about them, you can sit down and rest for a while!"
"Who is Miss Nalan?" The officers and soldiers came out from somewhere, and their eyes were on Kang An'an and the pavilion. Because they were both wearing mourning clothes, they could not tell which one was more noble from their clothes.
"I!" Kang Anan looked up, frowned, and replied to the officers and soldiers. Her voice was very soft and she was tired. She stopped to rest and felt how tired her body was. She faced the officers and soldiers' gaze with regret, and even raised the corners of her lips, "It is not convenient for the little woman to salute the official. I hope the official will forgive her. What should the official do to find the young woman?"
"After someone told me that the Nalan family merchant ship smuggled the flames and salt. Now I ask Miss Nalan to go with us!" The officers and soldiers looked at Kang An'an's belly that was about to give birth, but did not make things difficult for her. They even gave Kang An'an a polite feeling, "Miss Nalan, let's go!"
Kang Anan was not surprised when he heard the words of the officers and soldiers. It seemed that she had known about this early in the morning. In fact, Kang Anan didn't know that there would be such a day, but she didn't expect that this day would come so soon and it was still a very bad time. She even suspected that someone was deliberately messing with her.
"Official, can you ask, "Who is the one who told me?" Kang Anan said as he stretched out his hand. Seeing this, the pavilion stepped forward and helped her up.
"That's right, it's kept secret for the time being. However, you can ask the magistrate in the yamen!" The officers and soldiers' eyebrows were filled with impatience, but they still kindly reminded, "Anyway, the lady will see the sue sooner or later, so you should think about what to do to avoid prison!"
"Thank you, lord!" Kang Anan said and stroked his stomach and asked tentatively, "Can the little woman hire a carriage to travel?"
Her question did not give much hope. Since ancient times, those who are officials have any power look down on the lower class, let alone consider a person who has violated the law. Even if this person is as heavy as her, they will beat and scold him.
"There is a carriage, please come on, Miss!" After the officer and soldiers said, he turned sideways, and saw a carriage slowly coming and stopping when he reached Kang An'an.
Kang Anan was shocked at this ordinary carriage that was no longer ordinary. Unexpectedly, even the carriage was prepared for himself. It seemed that his opponent was really prepared.
Kang Anan was not polite either. With the help of the Pavilion, he stepped into the carriage. The Pavilion begged the officers and soldiers to follow him.
"Peace, go back to your house. Today is the day when my grandfather is having funeral. There are many things in the house!" Kang Anan looked at the pavilion casually, his eyes flashing.
The pavilion immediately understood what Kang Anan meant, and Kang Anan wanted her to go back to the house to find someone to ask for help.
"Okay, then be careful by yourself!" After the cabinet said that, he retreated to the side in a panic.
"Let's go!" Kang Anan put down the curtain and said to the officers and soldiers.
Along the way, Kang Anan was thinking, did the people in the government be so polite and cared for him, and did they not get real evidence, or did they consider that she was a lady from Nalan Mansion?
Maybe both.
When they arrived at the yamen, the officers and soldiers led Kang An'an directly into the prison. "Ms. Nalan, let's wait first, and then the court will be held after the magistrate comes back!"
"Hey, lord, today is the day for my grandfather to have funeral, and it is a big event. If the court hearing is not here today, can you ask the magistrate to be polite and let the young woman go back first. After my grandfather’s funeral is funeral, the young woman will return to this yamen again!"
Kang An'an did not understand the process of the government's investigation, so he would try his best to get what he could.
When she said this, she was crying, and with a big belly, she looked pitiful.
After hearing this, the officers and soldiers sighed, "This is not possible. As long as someone reports the case, we have to file a case to arrest the suspect, regardless of the cold winter and heat, whether it is birth, old age, sickness and death of the suspect, let alone the lady's grandfather!"
Kang Anan tightened his fists, and his face was still kind, "Thank you, lord!"
This prison was not the first time she came to this prison. The last time, half a year ago, in order to save Ling Shuang, she was not afraid of tigers and provoked Murong Yuntian. She was imprisoned in the prison in Yanzhou City. The environment there was harsh and the prisoners were complicated. The environment seemed to be much better this time.
Kang An'an sat there, praying in his heart that the pavilion could go back to his house as soon as possible to find Nalan Yunye to explain the whole story.
After all, this matter involves the Nalan family's water transportation business. Nalan Yunye is also a member of the Nalan family. He knows the great relationship and knows the truth that there is no end to the eggs after the nest is destroyed.
So, at the beginning, Kang Anan had great hope that he would be released from prison soon.
However, as time went by, she became more and more panicked and was locked in this closed prison. She could not get any news. No one came to see her. She didn't know whether her grandfather had been in the funeral on time. Whether the pavilion had informed Nalan Yunye, whether Nalan Yunye was busy with her grandfather's affairs or wanted countermeasures to negotiate with the magistrate.
She didn't know, and didn't know anything. What worried her even more was that her abdominal discomfort was intensifying and there seemed to be signs of giving birth.
Kang Anan took a deep breath and then exhale. This is the knowledge she saw in medical books earlier. The abdominal pain caused by tension can be relieved by deep breathing.
Children, you must hold on, at least your mother doesn’t want to meet you in prison.
Kang An'an's eyes closed slightly and his hands gently stroked his abdomen. Gradually, the discomfort disappeared.
...
When Nalan Yunye returned to the mansion, the huge Nalan Mansion was almost empty, because everyone except the guardian went to see Nalan Zongliang off.
He took off his mourning clothes and went straight to the mourning hall. He opened the coffin and saw Nalan Zongliang lying safely inside.
Nalan Yunye reached out and pointed it in front of his chest a few times, then used internal force to open Nalan Zongliang's tendons.
"Uh..." After a while, Nalan Zongliang's heartbeat gradually recovered, followed by breathing, and finally woke up quietly.
The moment he opened his eyes, he saw Nalan Yunye standing in front of him, and immediately stretched out his palm to slash him.
Nalan Yunye flashed lightly and avoided Nalan Zongliang's attack.
He laughed, arrogant and wanton, "Grandpa, don't waste your energy, you can't hurt me!"
"You bastard!" Nalan Zongliang cursed angrily, and he seemed to have lost his martial arts skills. The attack on Nalan Yunye just now used up all his strength, so that now he leaned against the edge of the coffin, covering his chest, and only breathing after a breath.
"Grandpa, how have you been doing these days? Do you feel better to be alive?" Nalan Yunye simply jumped and sat on the table with tributes beside him, with his legs crossed, feeling leisurely and contented, "How are you thinking about it?"
Nalan Yunye used the most peaceful tone. After asking, he slightly raised his eyes, and his amber eyes met the light, and his rays were filled with light in an instant, captivating the soul. Nalan Zongliang looked at him, but he felt cold and cold, as if he was being slapped by his eyes.
What kind of person is this? Even at such an old age, he couldn't stand his sacrificing gaze and almost wanted to beg for mercy.
"I said there is no treasure map!" Nalan Zongliang turned his head and did not go to see Nalan Yunye. His chest was fluctuating violently. I don't know if it was because of fear or the sequelae of just waking up.
"Say it again!" Nalan Yunye seemed to have lost patience when he heard this. He moved his body and stood in front of Nalan Zongliang. He leaned over and raised him, "This is a chance to survive. Don't blame me. In addition, I want to tell you that your good granddaughter is being taken to the jail at this moment. I have the final say on whether to save or not!"
"What did you say?" Nalan Zongliang's face, whose fearless face suddenly became panicked. In this world, An An was probably the only weakness of him, which made him care so much.
"If you don't save her, the Feng family will save her, and Mr. Ran will also save her!" Nalan Zongliang was Lao Jiang after all, and after a moment of breathing, he calmed down. Not only did he not be threatened by Nalan Yunye, he instead told Kang An'an's retreat.
The strategy to attack the heart is that whoever pretends to be unintentional will eventually win.
"Is that?" Nalan Yunye's hand that was placed on Nalan Zongliang's neck tightened a little bit. He approached him and spoke cruel words, "You probably don't know that the Feng family fled to Weizhou City today. The young master Ran who you said was willing to sacrifice himself for Princess Ruixian for the Feng family. How could they care about An An? Only I can save her and the flesh and blood in her belly!"
Nalan Zongliang's breathing became slower, his eyes were staring, and a few words that almost bit out of his teeth, "Impossible!".
"Here you come!" Nalan Yunye suddenly turned his ears, then smiled evilly, clicked Nalan Zongliang's mute hole, put him flat in the coffin again, and covered the lid of the coffin, "Nalan Zongliang, listen carefully later!"
The pavilion ran back to the mansion because she ran so fast that she came back earlier than those who had returned home before her and Kang An'an.
She didn't bother to breathe, and then raised her energy and rushed into the mourning hall, running and shouting, "Young Master Ye, Young Master Ye..."
She saw Mr. Ye return early and should be in the mansion now.
"What's the matter?" Nalan Yunye slowly walked out of the curtain, looking in a bad mood.
"Young Master Ye, you--".
"I have been tired and unwell these days, so I went home early, why are you the only one, the lady?" Nalan Yunye spoke lightly, and a few words dispelled the doubts in the cabinet.
"Miss, she was captured by the government officials! I hurried back and reported to Mr. Ye, and asked Mr. Ye to find a way to save the lady!" The pavilion said as he knelt on the ground, his eyes full of anxiousness.
"What? Say it again!" Nalan Yunye frowned in surprise, but his voice sounded much calmer. He asked the pavilion to repeat it, mostly to stimulate Nalan Zongliang.
"The lady was captured by the government!" The pavilion did not doubt that he was, and spoke anxiously again, with a crying voice in his voice this time.
After Nalan Yunye was sure that Nalan Zongliang heard it clearly and would not suspect that the maid was the one he found, he raised his hand, "I understand, I will find a way to rescue the lady, you go down first!"
"yes!".
After the pavilion got up and left, Nalan Yunye walked to the coffin again and reached out to knock on the lid, "Grandpa, do you hear it? I didn't lie to you in a word!"
He waited for a while before opening the lid of the coffin, as if he wanted Nalan Zongliang to suffer all his heart. He untied his acupoints and curled a shallow curve in the corner of his mouth, "I'll ask you one last time, but I'll just say nothing!"
Nalan Zongliang's face was loose and silent, making his final consideration.
"Grandpa, think clearly. If you hand over the treasure map, you, An An, great-grandson, you will always be together and everyone will be happy. On the contrary, you can only meet in the underworld! Tsk tsk, that child who has not yet been born, think about it, it's really pitiful! Everyone is dead, what's the use of keeping the treasure map?"
"If I hand over the treasure map to you, will you really let us go?" Nalan Zongliang slowly raised his eyes and asked with a dry voice.
"Of course, I'm not a bloodthirsty devil. To be honest, I don't like killing, I just want to hide the treasure map!" Nalan Yunye made a bold promise and stared at Nalan Zongliang without blinking.
Nalan Zongliang was about to speak, but he seemed to hear something happening in the mourning hall. Nalan Yunye also heard the noise. Not only did he hear the noise, but he also noticed Nalan Zongliang's sudden change of thought.
"Nalan Yunye, you have to die of this heart. I won't tell you even if I die!" Nalan Zongliang wanted to delay time and asked those who came to ask for help.
Little did they know that this violated Nalan Yunye's taboo. He was the only one who played with others in his palms, but never allowed others to bully him.
Nalan Zongliang had long consumed his patience and now he challenged his bottom line.
Nalan Yunye's eyes became lighter, and his heart was furious. A trace of crumbness appeared on the corner of his mouth. He opened his lips, his voice was so gentle that it was terrifying, but it was covered with a huge anger, "Then you go and die!"
As he said that, he slapped Nalan Zongliang's life gate.
At the same time, a white shadow flashed, like a flowing cloud flying by, and it was fast and swift. When the white shadow appeared, several silver needles shot towards Nalan Yunye. Nalan Yunye's body was slightly sideways and barely avoided the attack.
