Chapter 428: In Peril


Le'an felt that her father and the prince's brother seemed to be saying something cruel, but she could not get the key meaning from it.

Although she was pampered by the emperor, she was not stupid.

She could guess what happened in the court just by hearing about it.

Thinking of Shen Yinqiu's position and hers, she never expected that they were so opposite.

Shen Yinqiu was sitting in the carriage leaving the palace, escorted by seven or eight guards.

It was getting late, so she opened a small car window.

The streets were empty, except for a few late-night snack stalls in some leeward places, where a few men gathered to drink and chat.

Shen Yinqiu closed the car window, looked at Wan Qiyan, silently moved to his side, and pulled his arm, "Are you asleep?"

Naturally, Wan Qiyan was not asleep.

He was just closing his eyes and resting his ears, still paying attention to Shen Yinqiu's actions.

"I know you're not asleep."

Shen Yinqiu answered her question without waiting for him to answer.

"We've helped you so thoroughly.

Isn't it too revealing?

Will he care about your abilities and then burn bridges?"

Wan Qiyan opened his eyes, and the light on the table caught his eyes, "Why do you think of this?"

Shen Yinqiu looked at him blankly and said subconsciously: "Because they seem to let you get involved in anything openly, and they have been using us as a shield."

Wan Qiyan sighed and held her in his arms, "You don't have to think about it so much."

"That's true.

After we finish all these things, they won't let us stay, will they kill us?"

"Unless he uses all the troops in his hands, he will not be able to successfully cause any harm to us, but that will inevitably put him in a weak position, and the court cannot really be peaceful."

Wan Qiyan said softly, " When we take the eldest princess away tomorrow, we won't have to worry about the court affairs. " Shen Yinqiu hesitated, "Then we have done so much, what have we gained from it?

You said that you want to cooperate with the prince for mutual benefit, but we have always been doing things for him, and we have not benefited.

They all say that we should take a longer-term view.

These things will be over in the long run.”

"It's good that we have achieved our goal.

We don't have any big losses anyway."

Wan Qiyan comforted him.

He had no intention of competing for those powers, but if the emperor and others wanted to harm him or Yinqiu, he would instead help the other princes.

It's not impossible.

When the two returned to the Hou Mansion, the lights were still brightly lit, as if they were waiting for them specially at such a late hour.

Shen Yinqiu and Wan Qiyan looked at each other and walked in hand in hand.

As expected, they saw Wan Qi Situ still sitting in the hall.

He had sharp ears and eyes, and was keenly aware of their footsteps.

When he looked up, his eyes were sharp and less gentle than what he usually saw Wan Qiyan.

So, did their visit to the palace make him realize anything?

"You are back."

Wanqi Situ looked at them in a deep voice and said.

This normal attitude made Wan Qiyan step into the hall and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Ziyan, it was really you who collected the evidence of those ministers and presented it to the emperor."

"Is there any problem?"

Wanqi Situ was so angry that he lost his temper, "You know who you have offended.

The emperor's power today is not as great as you think.

He also has things to consider and weigh, and you must do this to break his balance."

Do you think you have made a contribution to the incident?

Do you know how many pairs of eyes are staring at you outside?"

Although Chase's accusation was harsh, it was not difficult to hear his concern.

Shen Yinqiu looked at Wanqi Situ quietly.

This was the first time that Wanqi Situ didn't even give her the peripheral vision.

This time they were talking about business, and he probably didn't want to pay attention to her, a little shrimp.

After hearing what he said, Wan Qiyan raised his head and said, "I know, but if I'm afraid, can I just stop doing it?"

Besides, he wasn't afraid.

Wan Qi Situ choked, thinking that Wan Qi Yan meant that the emperor asked him to do this.

He thought for a while and said: "Even if the emperor asked you to do this, you don't have to hand over so much evidence to destroy Nan Hou Ye's right-hand man."

They were all pulled out.

I don’t believe you didn’t expect it, except that you did it on purpose.”

Wan Qiyan nodded, "Don't worry, I won't harm you because of my affairs."

Wanqi Situ smiled, "Every move you make has people from all walks of life staring at you.

Is it now a question of how many people will harm your father?

Now it's a question of how many people outside want your life."

"You don't need to worry about this.

It's getting late, so you should go to bed early."

After Wanqiyan said that, he turned around and planned to leave.

Because Wanqi Situ no longer lamented and talked about the past, his attitude was not bad. good.

Shen Yinqiu was carried away by Wan Qi Yan.

She took the time to look back at Wan Qi Situ and saw that his expression was very gloomy, as if he was in anger, but there was no resentment.

Wan Qiyan turned her head over to prevent her from looking at it.

Not long after the two left, they heard the sound of objects being smashed in the original hall.

From this sound, you could tell how angry Wanqi Situ was.

"He seems to care about you."

Shen Yinqiu looked sideways at Wan Qiyan's expression and said.

"Let it go."

After Wan Qiyan said that, he looked at Shen Yinqiu with a smile and hugged her tighter.

It was already late at night and he was afraid that she would freeze.

After that loud noise, instead of causing any excitement, the entire mansion became quiet.

The candles were extinguished one after another behind them.

It seemed that Wanqi Situ had also left.

On the way back to Chang'an Courtyard, there was not a single boy in sight.

Wan Tong was carrying a lantern to light up in front of them.

Suddenly seeing someone walking, she raised the lantern in her hand, looked warily into the dark and yelled: "Who?"

Wan Qiyan and Shen Yinqiu both stopped and watched a person walk step by step from the darkness to their lantern.

"Second Young Master" Wan Tong recognized the person and looked back at Wan Qiyan, waiting for his instructions.

Wan Qiyan raised his head and looked at him, "What's the matter?"

When he meets anyone in the Hou Mansion, the first thing he says is that something is wrong.

Wan Qi Sheng looked at Wan Qi Yan and said, "Today, several officials came to visit the government."

Shen Yinqiu listened and looked at Wan Qisheng's expression from time to time.

When several officials came to visit, were they looking for the Hou Mansion or Wan Qiyan?

Wan Qisheng waited for a few breaths but did not wait for Wan Qiyan's answer.

He continued: "They are all doing it for you, openly or secretly.

You have become a hero in front of the emperor, and you have put yourself in danger to be a hero."

It doesn't matter, I do whatever you want, but you brought trouble to your home, and you don't care about Shen Yinqiu's life or death.

Do you know how many times the guards in the mansion stopped the secret guards who came to assassinate your father, and how much you lost?"

Shen Yinqiu was a little confused.

Dead soldiers were not something ordinary people could keep in captivity.

And she really didn't know that someone was so bold and dared to climb the wall of the Hou Mansion to assassinate him.

After all, both Wanqi Situ and the eldest princess are people who are not easy to mess with.

One has been on the battlefield and made great contributions, and there are many soldiers loyal to him.

The other is the eldest princess who currently holds one-third of the military power.

Wan Qiyan didn't seem surprised at all, as if he had known what happened for a long time.

He asked: "So what?"

"Wan Qiyan, you are so terrible.

What do we owe you?

You were not in good health when you were a child.

Who has never seen those illnesses that you suffered from?

You will retaliate against your family when you recover."

"Who's to blame?"

Wan Qiyan's voice dropped several times.

Shen Yinqiu wanted to hold his forehead, but Wan Qisheng seemed to be a poor little man who didn't know anything and was kept in the dark.

His words made him hateful.

Wan Qisheng said with a straight face that he was right, "We don't have any objection if you want to be successful and climb up the ladder.

But the method you used is really shameful."

After Wan Qiyan sneered, he still didn't respond to his words.

He glanced at Wan Qi Sheng with pity in his eyes, and then left with Shen Yin.

Who is shameless?

We will know tomorrow.

Shen Yinqiu looked up at Wan Qisheng and passed him by.

Wan Qisheng didn't stop him, but took Shen Yinqiu's arm.

Shen Yinqiu whispered, why is her poor right hand so miserable?

Only then did Wan Qisheng remember and quickly let go.

Wan Qisheng had already brought Shen Yinqiu to the other side.

He knocked Wan Qisheng away with a palm, his face cold, "Next time, I won't be polite even to you."

Wan Qisheng clutched his chest, his blood surged up and he vomited a mouthful of blood.

He quickly explained loudly: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do it."

Of course, this apology was not directed at Wan Qisheng.

Wan Qiyan and Shen Yinqiu continued walking forward without looking back.

Wan Qisheng said with some annoyance: "It sounds like you were polite to me."

The fear that almost killed him when he was a child still remains in his mind.

Until he watched Wan Qiyan take Shen Yinqiu into Chang'an Courtyard, he didn't get a response from the other party.

Wan Qisheng was full of anger and checked that the injury on his chest was not serious.

He walked slowly and lonely back to his yard.

He had been waiting on this road for a full hour before they came back.

As soon as Wan Qiyan returned to the house, he wanted to check Shen Yinqiu's injuries.

Shen Yinqiu let him check and explained: "There is no big problem, he just touched it lightly, without force, and did not touch the wound directly.

Besides, there is a splint.

Woolen cloth."

Wan Qiyan bandaged her again after making sure there was no redness or swelling around her.

Shen Yinqiu looked at his silent expression and then looked at Wan Tong.

Wan Tong did not dare to make eye contact with Shen Yinqiu.

She thought that maybe Wan Qisheng's words just now were a little too much.

Wan Tong retreated very wisely, leaving Wan Qiyan and Shen Yinqiu alone.

"Are you angry?"

Shen Yinqiu looked at him carefully and said, his tone full of testing.

Wan Qiyan looked up, saw her expression and shook his head, "You don't have to talk to me like this, I'm not angry."

Shen Yinqiu nodded obediently on the surface, but was thinking about it in his heart.

He didn't look lifeless.

"When I was eight years old."

Wan Qiyan knew that she didn't believe it.

If she didn't say it, her little mind would probably keep thinking about it.

Shen Yinqiu immediately raised his head, waiting for him to continue talking about what happened to the eight-year-old:
