Chapter 129 The concubine who died young in the novel "The Emperor Takes His Minister's Wi
While the fighting raged in the neighboring courtyard, the main courtyard, which was completely surrounded, seemed somewhat out of place.
It's so quiet here.
Standing beside Nan Yi was a guard holding a knife. The guard had an ordinary face, but his eyes were flashing with cold light.
He appeared beside Nan Yi as early as when someone attacked Xiao Lanyi at night. With the thought that his master did not want to disturb his mistress, he simply instructed Nan Yi: "Go in and light a calming incense for the mistress, so that she is not disturbed."
Upon hearing this, Nan Yi gave him a somewhat complicated look, but quickly looked away.
Should we light some calming incense?
If he hadn't known that there were only two of them, and if he hadn't used any spells on the guard in front of him, he would have thought that the guard had come to help him.
With this calming incense, those who come to snatch people or guard them will be even easier to fool!
After thinking for a moment, Nan Yi silently thanked the guard for his help, and then happily went to light some calming incense.
Just as he finished lighting the calming incense and came out, the courtyard in front of him suddenly exuded a more somber and murderous atmosphere.
The moonlight was as cool as water, and in the chilly night wind, several black figures silently landed.
"coming."
The head guard muttered something under his breath, gave Nan Yi a knife, and then led his men to intercept the men in black.
The master's side is not important, but if something happens to the mistress's side, none of them will have an easy time.
Holding the broadsword given to him by his trusted bodyguard, Nan Yi fell into deep thought.
As he pondered, he flicked his fingertip, and a Gu worm fell into the collar of his body guard and invaded the other man's body.
The eldest guard paused, his expression becoming bewildered.
"flaw."
"flaw."
“ ...... ”
Surrounded by countless whispers, people acted on their impulses, and soon a gap appeared in the encirclement. A man in black seized the opportunity and rushed out, heading straight for the main house.
Nan Yi tried her best to carry the broadsword and swing it, but she was no match for the man in black. She was kicked away in one move.
The door was kicked open with a bang. Upon seeing the woman sleeping soundly on the bed, the man in black quickly grabbed the blanket, hoisted her and the bedding onto his shoulder, and rushed out of the room.
The two sides were locked in a fierce struggle, but because the men in black had hostages, the guards were hesitant to act rashly. In addition, Nan Yi caused trouble from behind, which allowed the men in black to successfully snatch "Le Yan".
Meanwhile, the guards protecting the main courtyard were all lying on the ground, mostly killed by Nan Yi's sneak attacks.
Seeing the mess everywhere, he silently got up, dusted himself off, and then used his lightness skill to leave the Lan residence.
While the main courtyard was settled, Xiao Lanyi and Wen Yingchen were still locked in a fierce battle nearby.
Wen Yingchen originally came to use a diversionary tactic, but after a while, he really got angry.
Especially when faced with the man who had stolen her away and spent more than half a month with her, and now wanted to marry her, his jealousy eroded his reason, making him truly want to behead Xiao Lanyi.
Xiao Lanyi also loathed him to the extreme.
Putting aside past grudges, just looking at the present, tomorrow is his wedding day, yet Wen Yingchen has to choose to cause trouble tonight of all times.
If it's not handled properly, he might have to change the auspicious date and time.
How could Xiao Lanyi, who had longed for marriage for so long, accept this?
Therefore, the culprit, Wen Yingchen, must die in front of him!
The Lan family is never quiet.
After the Wen family's secret guards successfully abducted the person, they followed Wen Yingchen's plan and left Jinlan Town overnight in a carriage without stopping at all, speeding away.
After watching the Wen family's carriage leave Jinlan Town, Nan Yi returned to the inn to report back to Liu Chutang.
"Given the power of Wen Yingchen and Xiao Lanyi, the two will inevitably suffer heavy losses."
"When Xiao Lanyi discovers that Le Yan is missing, she will only chase after Wen Yingchen and leave."
"Once they've all left, it will be time for us to leave properly."
Sitting on the edge of the bed, Liu Chutang gently tucked a strand of Le Yan's slightly disheveled hair behind her ear, a smug smile playing on her lips.
She should thank Wen Yingchen for coming; otherwise, she wouldn't have had such a perfect scapegoat.
With Wen Yingchen drawing attention ahead, who could possibly notice her hidden behind the scenes?
Nan Yi looked at her, his gaze sweeping over the sleeping figure. After a moment of contemplation, he asked, "Where will we go after leaving Jinlan Town?"
Upon hearing this question, Liu Chutang paused, narrowed her eyes slightly, and said calmly, "Return to the capital and enter the Wen residence."
The most dangerous place is the safest place.
Wen Yingchen would eventually realize he had kidnapped the wrong people, but he never imagined that they would be living peacefully in his backyard.
"But Emperor Kangning and Consort Song are still in the capital."
Nan Yi coldly reminded him, "Don't forget, they're looking for her too."
Moreover, the capital city is right under the emperor's nose. If Emperor Kangning's men keep a close watch, they will probably be discovered very soon.
Liu Chutang shook her head and smiled faintly: "Of course I know, but nowhere is as convenient as the Wen family."
Knowing that Liu Chutang had made up her mind, Nanyi stopped trying to persuade her.
Instead, he turned his gaze to Le Yan on the bed, remained silent for a while, and then asked, "What about her?"
"What if, after she wakes up, she no longer wants to be under your control and wishes to return to the palace?"
Liu Chutang's expression turned cold. "If that's the case, I don't mind refining a few more Gu."
It would be best if she stayed by her side willingly.
But if she doesn't want to, she has ways to make her agree.
*
Just as Liu Chutang had planned and guessed, Wen Yingchen and Xiao Lanyi were unable to deal with each other and ended up with both sides suffering heavy losses.
However, Wen Yingchen had already achieved his initial goal and was unwilling to continue entangled with Xiao Lanyi.
He coldly said, "Xiao Lanyi, the Emperor already knows you are still alive. Your power will be crushed by the Emperor's iron cavalry sooner or later."
After uttering a single sentence, Wen Yingchen, who had been stabbed several times, left the Lan residence under the protection of his guards.
Xiao Lanyi, who was also injured, disregarded her own safety and immediately ran towards the main courtyard.
Upon seeing the scene of people everywhere in the main courtyard, he spat out a mouthful of blood and roared with murderous intent, "Chase them! Find the mistress at all costs!"
That damned Wen Yingchen, he'll tear him to pieces!
