Chapter 170: A Strange Figure

After learning about this, Qiu Yan was very anxious and pulled Lu Chiye.

"Hurry up and figure it out! You know, we don't know the details of the group of people in the imperial court, they are so cruel to deal with that group of caravans, and we don't know if our people will be harmed! ”

Lu Chiye also knew this, so he was also very anxious, and after thinking about it, he said, "I'll write a letter now, explain it clearly, and rescue our people first." ”

"As for whether the imperial court will investigate us for mixing in this matter privately, we can only take one step at a time."

Qiu Yan also knew that there was only this way now, and nodded in agreement.

Time waits for no one, and Lu Chiye hurriedly wrote a letter.

It was explained clearly in the letter that these people were their people, and they wanted to help the imperial court see if they could find out anything.

Then, as soon as he could, he sent the letter over.

Another day passed, and the people at the court seemed to have received the letter, and they also believed the explanations of Lu Chiye and Qiu Yan.

So he sent two men and sent all their men back.

Qiu Yan and Lu Chiye's hearts that had been hanging because of their accidents finally fell, but they never thought that before they could settle down, their hearts hung up because of another thing.

The two men who had sent their men over placed their men in two wagons.

Qiu Yan and his wife waited at the gate of the city early, and when they saw the carriage coming, Qiu Yan was anxious to get on the carriage to see if there were any fewer people.

As a result, he was stopped by two people in charge of the escort, one of whom explained.

"Wait, Mrs. Lu, don't be impatient, there are some things I have to explain to you first."

"Because at the beginning, we thought they were also merchants who were also doing improper business, and they couldn't pry their mouths open, so in order to make the interrogation smooth, some torture was inflicted."

After Qiu Yan heard this, he looked up at him suspiciously.

I saw the man clench his fists and bow in apology, and said, "On behalf of a group of us, I apologize to you and your men." ”

The people sent by the imperial court also had official positions, and Qiu Yan didn't dare to accept this gift anyway, so he only accepted half of his courtesy.

Then, shaking his head at him, "You don't have to apologize for this, you guys are also routine. ”

"We were unreasonable and didn't explain it to you beforehand."

In this way, the two people who escorted their subordinates were sent away, and the couple breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that they were not guilty.

But listening to the other party's words, Qiu Yan was a little worried in her heart, and her intuition told her that this could never be as simple as some punishments.

Sure enough, the group of people sent by the imperial court was too ruthless, and they severely injured all Qiu Yan and Lu Chiye's people, and none of them were spared.

Looking at the scarred hands one by one, Qiu Yan's heart was about to break.

These are all subordinates they have personally cultivated, and they have been helping themselves for so long, and they have never suffered such a big injury.

With tears flashing in his eyes, he covered his mouth tightly with both hands and didn't dare to make a sound, turned around and buried himself in Lu Chiye's arms.

Lu Chiye was also incredulous, angry and helpless in his heart.

can only comfort Qiu Yan while letting the people he brought send this group of subordinates to the hospital for treatment immediately.

Qiu Yan eased up for a while She raised her head and looked at Lu Chiye, with tears on her face, and said sadly.

"Husband, I suddenly feel that I am so defeated, they have suffered such a big grievance for us, but we don't dare to say a word, and we are afraid that the people on the other side of the court will be guilty and have to hold them."

Lu Chiye didn't think so, but now they are not capable enough, so they can only silently hug Qiu Yan and comfort her.

I remembered that the faces of my subordinates were blue and swollen just now, which was still covered by the clothes, but none of the exposed flesh was spared, let alone the inside of the clothes? It must be scarred too!

Where is this interrogation? It's clearly lynching!

Although the two of them felt uncomfortable because of this, they could do nothing but pray that nothing happened to the group of men.

It didn't take long for news from the hospital that no one had died, and most of them were now out of danger.

However, none of the flesh and skin on the body were intact, and some were burned with a soldering iron, scarred, and even rotted because they had not been treated in time......

Qiu Yan and his wife were angry and sad, but because of each other's identities, they could only put this matter down temporarily.

But the men who were arranged out were seriously injured because of them, and Qiu Yan couldn't do anything to throw them in place like this.

Therefore, I deliberately stayed here for a while longer.

After that, they were specially settled down.

When all this was ready, Lu Chiye went to meet a few shopkeepers in person, and after returning home, he said while helping Qiu Yan massage his sore shoulders.

"The matter here is almost settled, and it's time for us to leave, how about it, are you okay here?"

"yes, that's good." Qiu Yan pulled out a somewhat tired smile.

"Anyway, there's nothing else to do here, or let's arrange for someone to go and talk to my father in person." Before parting, I had a meal with him and his sister. ”

Qiu Yan deliberately didn't mention Cao Xinfeng, and Lu Chi probably knew in his heart that he was definitely disgusted by what she did last time.

Nodding gently, "Okay, I'll listen to you." Then I'll go and talk to my father-in-law right away. ”

Qiu Yan nodded, and continued to lie on the table, not even having the strength to move.

After Qiu Xian Ling heard that the two were about to leave, he specially talked to Qiu Miaomiao.

So, the father and daughter were in a good restaurant in Qiguang Mansion, and after booking a private room in person, they invited Qiu Yan and them to come over for a meal before leaving.

The couple naturally arrived at the appointment on time, looking at the dazzling array of dishes on the table, Qiu Yan couldn't help but smile exaggeratedly as soon as she walked in.

"Today's meal, I'm afraid that my father will break the bank, right? Sister, you're here too! ”

After speaking, he warmly hugged Qiu Miaomiao.

After a careful observation, I didn't find Cao Xinfeng's shadow, and I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in my heart.

No matter how you say it, the Qiu County Order is also a parent official, and there is still a set of things in terms of observing words and feelings.

Looking at Qiu Yan's appearance, you can know that the knot in Cao Xinfeng's heart has not been let go.

But thinking that they thought that the couple would be leaving soon, it would not be good if they kept going on the road with resentment.

After quickly pulling her to sit down next to her, he was a little embarrassed to speak.

"You must not be like your mother, she has a bad temper, but she has been like that for so many years, I have long been used to it."

Qiu Yan pursed her lips and didn't say anything.

Qiu Xianling looked at the scene a little embarrassed, and hurriedly took the initiative to raise his wine glass.

After saying some auspicious words, he continued.

"Before parting, can you agree to my father's little request? I don't know when I'll be able to see you in the future, it's all a family, so don't be so stiff, okay? ”

Seeing that Qiu Yan still looked too lazy to pay attention, Lu Chiye hurriedly kicked her lightly under the table.

Qiu Yan came back to her senses and said a few perfunctory words casually.

"I know, anyway, my husband and I will leave soon, what does her matter have to do with me?"

Seeing the embarrassed look on Qiu Xianling's face, Lu Chiye hurriedly took the initiative to say.

"Okay, madam, today is the day for my father-in-law and my sister to practice for the two of us, don't talk about these unhappy things."

"I respect my father-in-law first, I wish you a bright future, and I hope that my sister's life will become smoother and smoother in the future, and she will make more money."

After speaking, he took the initiative to raise his wine glass.

At the mention of her father and sister who made her feel warm, Qiu Yan finally had two smiles on her face.

took the initiative to take Qiu Miaomiao's hand and said earnestly.

"Sister, in the future, you will be at the express point, but you must continue to study hard, if you have the opportunity, you can also go to other places to take a look."

"I know, my sister is so good, I, as a sister, definitely can't hold you back. Don't worry, I'll definitely learn more from others. Qiu Miaomiao agreed simply.

Soon, several people began to take the initiative to find some interesting topics, and this meal was also harmonious.

It's almost time, and Qiu County Ling also has to deal with the work at hand, and Qiu Yan and they didn't keep him much.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Lu Chiye had also been called away by the shopkeeper under his hand, and at this time in the box, only Qiu Yan and the two sisters were left.

Qiu Yan felt that staying in this room was quite boring, so she took the initiative to suggest.

"Sister, let's go out for a walk, maybe we can buy some of the things we need on the way."

"Okay, I'll go with you." After speaking, Qiu Miaomiao stood up and took the initiative, took her hand, and walked towards the street.

But who knows, just after the two of them went to buy some things that they needed on the road, and Qiu Yan finally put down Cao Xinfeng's matter, Qiu Miaomiao suddenly got closer to her and whispered in her ear.

"Sister, have you noticed that someone seems to have been around us several times? I don't know if it's intentional or not. ”

"Really? Where is that man? Hearing what Qiu Miaomiao said, Qiu Yan immediately looked at the people around them vigilantly.

"Look, it's the one in a dark gray robe, but he's quick to hide."

Qiu Yan looked in the direction of Qiu Miaomiao's finger, and found that the person was already like a loach, and he merged into the crowd in three or two clicks, and he couldn't find it.

patted his chest gently, with a palpitating expression, and took the initiative to admonish.

"Sister, my husband and I will leave in the future, you must be extra careful."

"If you go out alone, don't go to that kind of remote place."

"Don't worry, I know it." Qiu Miaomiao smiled.

However, although the stranger ran fast, Qiu Yan always had a bad premonition in his heart.

After going home separately from Qiu Miaomiao, the first thing I thought of was Ji Zhai, who had no whereabouts before.
