Return of the Swallow

Chapter 742 Obedience

Qiu Yuanming's hair was cut in his sleep, and he was scared out of his wits.

Qiu's house is heavily guarded, and there are still people who can break in. If this atmosphere is not corrected, maybe someone will cut off his head in his sleep without knowing?

And his chaff and two daughters-in-law.

Women, now they are bald, how can they meet people? He couldn't wait to directly claim that these three women wanted to convert to Buddhism, so he just sent them to the family temple.

Now he fell painfully, and before he got up he was ridiculed again, he couldn't hold back his face, his face turned into a pig's liver color, Qiu Yuanming angrily glared at the people upstairs and roared:

"Come on, rush up for me, these are the arsonists, the culprits who sneaked into Qiu's house and attempted to steal, take them down for me! There will be a lot of rewards for taking down that demon girl!"

"Yes, sir!"

The guarding boxers got their orders, and wanted to reward them heavily, they got up one by one, screaming and rushing upwards. The roar frightened the "spectators" downstairs.

It's just that the stairs are narrow, and the Jinghu Guards are one against ten. They are very brave and good at fighting. A group of them guards the stairs. These boxers are really difficult to conquer for a while. To catch Qin Yining like this is simply a dream.

Qiu Yuanming also saw that this was not going to work, so he turned around and gave instructions to his followers.

At this time, there was another commotion in front of the inn.

Wu Zhifu, who met once yesterday, and Qiu Yuanming, who was wearing a sapphire blue round-neck and wide slender gown, came together with his servants and the Qiu Family Nursing Home. The two were whispering something while walking , appear to be very closely related.

Qin Yining originally looked relaxed, but watching Qiu Yuanming torment like this was like watching a clown.

But seeing Qiu Yuanqing and Wu Zhifu came together, and carefully observing the expressions of the two when they spoke, she found that Wu Zhifu's attitude towards Qiu Yuanqing was quite respectful and cautious, not at all like the attitude of an imperial court official treating a commoner. But like a slave to a master.

Looking at it like this, Qin Yining's heart felt cold.

Here, the Qiu family is very powerful, if the local government dare not come forward to uphold justice, then anyone will have to suffer. Unless she can put down her figure to cater to the Qiu family.

But she, Qin Yining, is a person who won't give in.

Wu Zhifu and Qiu Yuanqing frowned when they saw that there was such a commotion at the stairs.

"Stop." Qiu Yuanqing reprimanded in a deep voice, and glanced at the attendants beside him.

The entourage immediately went forward knowingly, and helped Qiu Yuanming, who was still pointing upstairs and cursing furiously, down.

"Cousin Ming, what are you doing? Since you were frightened yesterday, you should take care of yourself. There are still so many people here. You have to think about the Qiu family's reputation if you don't care about anything else. Make a lot of noise and make people talk."

Qiu Yuanqing's voice was so low that only a few people nearby could hear it.

Qiu Yuanming was still angry, and spat on Qiu Yuanqing's face: "Bah! You bastard, don't worry about being kind, your nephew has been abolished, and I will spend the night with your cousin and two nieces and daughters-in-law." They all had their heads shaved, and they were almost burned to death. You don’t care about it, but you still make sarcastic remarks! You are still not human!"

Qiu Yuanqing was spit all over his face, and disgustedly took the wet handkerchief handed over by his entourage to wipe his face, and his patience was exhausted.

"Brother Ming is confused,

Even if Princess Zhongshun ordered someone to set fire, the magistrate will handle the matter, so it's not your turn to cause trouble in the city. If you do this, won't you cause trouble to the magistrate? "

After Wu Zhifu heard the words, he immediately understood Qiu Yuanqing's intentions, stepped forward and cupped his hands and said: "Princess, you have done such a thing this time, and the officials have no choice but to take you back to investigate carefully."

"Princess, what should I do?"

The few people around were already bursting with anger, and asked Qin Yining's meaning in a low voice. It seemed that as long as she nodded, the silver-faced spy and Jinghuwei would turn into hungry tigers and wolves, and pounce on the flock of sheep downstairs.

Qin Yining's mind was running fast.

In the current situation, Prefect Wu has been on the side of the Qiu family indiscriminately.

Not to mention Qiu Yuanming's idiot, he can't represent the meaning of the entire Qiu family, just looking at Qiu Yuanqing, it seems that he wants to arrest them all.

She was polite yesterday, but changed her mind overnight. Qin Yining didn't know why Qiu Yuanqing suddenly changed her attitude, but she knew that what they were going to face now was the largest family in Jianchuan and the local magistrate.

Looking at the anxious and angry faces of the people around him, Qin Yining pursed his lips, but did not give an order immediately.

Although Qiu Yuanqing brought a limited number of people in the inn, but the Qiu family is such a powerful force, do they want manpower or not?

If the strong dragon does not overwhelm the local snake, if there is a head-on conflict, even if she is surrounded by peerless masters, she will probably suffer in the end.

Qin Yining is not impulsive, even if he has backbone and dignity, this backbone and dignity are not achieved on the basis of sacrificing the lives of people around him. If it was her own, she could not care about it, but the people around her were innocent, so she couldn't bring them down.

Thinking about this, Qin Yining said in a low voice: "If you keep the green hills, you won't have to worry about no firewood. Don't be impulsive and listen to my orders."

Several people understood Qin Yining's meaning as soon as they heard it. Although they felt aggrieved, this was indeed the most sensible choice at the moment.

Qin Yining said: "Prefect Wu, this princess regards you as an upright and honest official, and has always had hope for the government. Is this the fault of this princess? The fire that broke out in the inn last night, I believe that the people who live in the inn don't know what to do. The prefect in the distance must have seen it? But why is it so close, from the fire to the successful fire fighting, I have not seen the figure of prefect Wu appearing on the scene of the fire?

"You can say that everything was a coincidence, but what about now? Someone brought people to commit crimes in the street and slandered the princess without any basis. As an official of the imperial court, you refused to investigate carefully, and even brought people to think about it. Take me away. Why, is it possible that the prefect Wu still intends to beat me to death?"

Wu Zhifu was speechless when Qin Yining's words pierced his heart. Unexpectedly, this princess could be so sharp-tongued, and she could make sense in every sentence, making it impossible for him to refute.

Even if he is a puppet, he is unwilling to lose his demeanor in front of the common people. Fearing that Qin Yining would say something more, the prefect Wu immediately said: "Princess, don't force your words. Since ancient times, there has been a saying that the emperor breaks the law and the common people are guilty of the same crime. Now that you are suspected of arson and arson, then you have to follow me to the yamen On trial, is it true that the princess' principles are only for restraining others, so it doesn't work for you?"

Qin Yining sneered, "It's really interesting. Since the magistrate invited me to visit the princess's yamen, naturally I won't embarrass you. But you have to think clearly, everything has a cause and effect, right?"

This sentence is tantamount to telling Prefect Wu that if something happened to her, or if something happened to the person he brought with him, what Prefect Wu would face would be the most craziest revenge from the faction of Prince Zhongshun.

Wu Zhifu shuddered when he heard that.

In fact, it has not been a day or two for Pang Xiao to be famous outside, and his various methods are not something he, a little magistrate, can bear. It's just that people have to bow their heads under the eaves. He wants to save his life and be rich, so he can only attach himself to the Qiu family on the three-acre land in Jianchuan.

Qiu Yuanqing is very likely to be the next head of the Qiu family, and he doesn't know how many years he will stay in Jianchuan. If he offends Qiu Yuanqing, what will happen in the future, what will happen to his wife and children?

Wu Zhifu shook his head, feeling helpless and bitter. The only consolation is that Prince Zhongshun did not come to Jianchuan, and Jianchuan Pass is extremely dangerous. Like a god, I'm afraid I can't lead troops to attack, right?

Then what he had to rely on was still the Qiu family.

Thinking about this, the prefect Wu has already made up his mind and ordered people to arrest Qin Yining and his party.

Qin Yining winked at Mu Jinghu, signaling him to calm down and not act rashly. The rest of the people also stopped listening to the orders and did not resist.

But before everyone noticed, Jing Zhe and Xiaoxue had already retreated quietly. Using the tall bodies of the Jinghu Guards as a cover, they quietly retreated to the window facing the street. After carefully observing the situation outside, they were like two different people. Like an eye-catching shadow, it sneaked out quietly.

Because of the verbal confrontation between Qin Yining and Wu Zhifu, everyone at the scene focused their attention on these two people, and they didn't even notice that the group of burly Jinghu guards would quietly disappear Two people.

Qin Yining led the people downstairs, followed Wu Zhifu, Qiu Yuanming and Qiu Yuanqing brothers and left the inn without any resistance.

Qin Yining asked: "How many days will the prefect Wu plan to solve the case? Although my princess is soft-faced and easy to talk, she is not without temper. You put a hat on me for arson and murder for no reason, and you don't even have any evidence If you dare to frame someone, I can understand that you were too tired and worried and made a slip of the tongue. However, I cooperate with you, so don't push yourself!"

Wu Zhifu's face was red when he was told that he had a guilty conscience, and this time he came out to arrest people entirely to cooperate with Qiu Yuanqing. After being told by Qin Yining, Prefect Wu became even more shameless.

Qiu Yuanqing broke the prefect Wu's embarrassment in a timely manner, and said: "The princess is a golden branch and jade leaf. Even if there is something wrong, she can't be locked in the cell of the prefect's yamen. Can the magistrate give me a face and allow the princess to live in Qiu's house?" Guest house? In this way, it will be more convenient for the adults to interrogate, and the princess will not be wronged?"

Prefect Wu nodded happily, he didn't want to serve such a sharp-tongued person. Wouldn't it be better to live in Qiu's house?

Hearing this, Qin Yining became even more defensive. She can now see that Qiu Yuanqing's purpose may not be to vent Qiu Feizhen's anger, nor is it for Qiu Yuanming of Liufang.

Perhaps what he did was to lock her up at Qiu's house!
