Chapter 100 Qi Yue, you are finally here

The next night, Zhao Zhao got a reply from Shen Jinyu, which said: I have set up my defense, Mr. Qin has been protected, and the secret guards are ready. Duan Mufeng's dead soldiers will be targeted as soon as they appear. , I will have a banquet at the Shen Mansion in five days to ask for leave, Mr. Qin. You tricked Qi Yue into the Shen Mansion on the pretext of a fake assassination. Bring over the antidote you brought. I will try to develop an antidote.

After reading Shen Jinyu's reply, Zhao Zhao breathed a sigh of relief. He did not trust the wrong person. Now only by cooperating with Shen Jinyu can they have a chance of relief.

Zhao Zhao is big-hearted, but he is not a fool. When the name Shen Jinyu is mentioned, the tenderness in Qi Yue's eyes cannot fool anyone, and the same goes for Shen Jinyu. So Zhao Zhao took a gamble, and now it seems that he made the right bet. .

After memorizing the contents of the letter, Zhao Zhao burned the letter paper.

Estimating the time mentioned by Shen Jinyu, Zhao Zhao left the house three days later under the pretext of going to the Qin Mansion to spy on the news. In fact, he just went out to take the opportunity to lure the dead men who were monitoring them to reveal themselves, so that Shen Jinyu's secret guards could reveal themselves. Catch the whereabouts of some dead soldiers.

Qi Yue and Yin Baiyi did not become suspicious. When Zhao Zhao came back after sunset, Qi Yue immediately asked nervously: "Did you find any of Duan Mufeng's dead soldiers when you went out today?"

"Yes," Zhao Zhao took a sip of water, "the vendors on the streets, the waiters greeting people at the door of restaurants, the men blacksmithing in blacksmith shops, and there are people like Duan Mufeng among the crowds everywhere."

"Staring so closely," Qi Yue frowned, his face gloomy.

Zhao Zhao wanted to comfort her by saying that these dead soldiers had been controlled by Shen Jinyu's people, but he swallowed it back before he remembered it was time.

Yin Baiyi: "What's the situation in Qin Mansion?"

"Three days later, Qin Huaiming will go to the Shen Mansion for a banquet. I heard that the newly ennobled Marquis specially set up a table in order to thank Qin Huaiming for some favor. I think that when Qin Huaiming's banquet is over, we can stay here. Take action on his way back," Zhao Zhao said.

Qi Yue nodded, "Okay, just for show, but Qin Huaiming must have followers with relatively high martial arts skills, otherwise it would be too fake if we can't kill even a civil servant who is over fifty years old."

"Usually when high-ranking officials like them hold banquets, after the banquet is over, the person who organized the banquet will send their own people to take the guests back to the mansion. The people around Mr. Shen are very skilled, so there should be no problem with this. "

Zhao Zhao was still secretly thinking of a reasonable explanation, but Yin Baiyi answered the question for him, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Qi Yue: "That's fine. Also, Duan Mufeng's dead soldiers are very likely to be in the dark when we take action. His dead soldiers may take action when we fail. When I take action, you two will pay attention to the dark places." A dead soldier."

Yin Baiyi and Zhao Zhao nodded, "Okay."

The three of them discussed the action plan for the day and just waited for the time to come.

Three days later, Xu Shi.

Zhao Zhao led Qi Yue and Yin Baiyi to Shen Mansion. Qin Huaiming's carriage was parked at the gate of Shen Mansion, and people had already arrived.

Qi Yue: "Which way should we go now?"

"Which way?" Zhao Zhao asked back.

"Didn't you say we would do something to Qin Huaiming on his way back? Why did he come to the door of Shen's residence?"

Zhao Zhao: "Oh, you are stupid. There are several roads from Shen Mansion back to Qin Mansion. How do we know which one Qin Huaiming is going to take? We can only guard him here and follow him out."

Qi Yue was stunned for a moment, feeling that something was not quite right, but it seemed to be the truth. After thinking for a long time, she nodded, "Okay."

Seeing that Qi Yue was not suspicious, Zhao Zhao secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He took Qi Yue and Yin Baiyi to the side door of Shen Mansion. The three of them climbed up the wall and lay down behind under the cover of the corners of the glass sculptured animal heads.

In the yard, the conversation between Shen Jinyu and Qin Huaiming came faintly, which was very vague to the ears. Qi Yue looked at Shen Jinyu's mansion and thought, Shen Jinyu has made it through now, he has been promoted to a marquis, and he lives there. It was great to have Bai Yueguang Yue Ling in such a big and grand mansion, and Qi Yue was heartily happy for him.

However, this joy is mixed with a lot of sourness.

On a full-moon night, there is not a trace of cloud in the night sky, and there is only a full moon that alone emits bright white moonlight.

After staying on the eaves for almost a stick of incense, the yard suddenly became noisy. There were shouts, fighting, and even the sound of weapons clashing together. Qi Yue was startled, and she poked her head out to see what was going on in the yard. What happened, Zhao Zhao on the far side yelled something bad.

"A fight broke out in the yard, and Duan Mufeng's soldiers took action before us!"

"What?" Qi Yue got up and looked into the courtyard. He saw Shen Jinyu protecting Qin Huaiming and fighting with the men in black. There were about six men in black. Shen Jinyu was retreating while fighting, and he was already somewhat defeated. appearance.

"Let's go down and help!" Qi Yue made the decision almost immediately.

"Okay!" Zhao Zhao agreed, and Qi Yue took the lead to climb down the wall. Yin Baiyi who was behind wanted to follow, but Zhao Zhao suddenly held his hand.

Yin Baiyi turned around inexplicably, "What's wrong?"

Zhao Zhao shook his head at him, "Let's not go there. It's fake down there. It's just a show."

"Ah?" Yin Baiyi didn't understand.

Zhao Zhao pulled him down and said, "That's a show for Qi Yue. The dead man is a fake, and so is Qin Huaiming. I'll tell you what's going on in a moment."

"It's not Zhao Zhao, what's going on? What did you do without telling us?" Yin Baiyi was pulled over the wall by him and walked straight in through the gate of Shen's Mansion.

Qi Yue, who was kept in the dark, did not notice that Zhao Zhao and Yin Baiyi did not follow. After she landed, she immediately drew her knife and went to hit the man in black. The man in black was opened, but when she turned around, Qin Huaiming was nowhere to be seen. She walked around Look, I saw a trace of clothes flashing past at the corner of the courtyard wall in front, Qi Yue immediately chased after him without thinking.

When she chased after her, there was no one behind the courtyard wall. There was only a closed room in front of her. Just as she was hesitating whether to go forward, there was a sudden noise in the room, as if someone was struggling and knocked down. thing.

Qi Yue's heart skipped a beat, and she approached the door with the knife in hand. There was no light in the room, and it was pitch dark. Qi Yue stood at the door and gently pushed the door open a crack. She did not go in first, but threw the scabbard in first. .

The scabbard fell to the ground and made a "pop" sound. There was no movement in the room. Qi Yue then stepped into the room. She held the knife in her right hand across her chest and her left knife behind her back. She looked left and right and walked towards the middle of the two bookshelves.

Behind her, a dark figure came out from the other corner and followed her.

Qi Yue held her breath and walked forward. She walked around quietly behind the bookshelf, but there was no one there. She was wondering in her heart when she suddenly felt someone behind her. She almost subconsciously wanted to turn around and draw the knife, but before she could do anything, When that happened, the man behind him spoke calmly,

"You're finally here."
