Qi Su: "Then let him stay locked up for now. Listen to what he says and don't be stubborn. Your senior brother is already trying to find a way to rescue you."

With so many people, they can't run very far.

Moreover, these are all bargaining chips used to extort Yun Wuyi, and they won't be harmed easily.

After finishing the chestnut cake, Qingyan pushed open the door to go out.

Qi Su grabbed the little monk's hand.

Qingyan: "Get out! It's improper for men and women to interact like that!"

A small, gourd-shaped bottle lay quietly in his palm.

What is this?

Qi Su: "This contains some sleeping Gu. If anyone goes too far, we'll use this on them."

Qingyan held the small bottle.

"Could this kill someone?"

Qi Su: "Ancestors, your monastery is about to be raided, and you're still worried about the executioner's life."

Qingyan insisted on asking.

Qi Su said helplessly, "He won't die, but he'll be in a daze for a while."

Qingyan then accepted it with peace of mind.

.

Qi Su watched as the little monk carried a basket of steamed buns back to the Dharma Hall.

Ciyun Temple is Yun Wuyi's home. Even though he has returned to secular life, this place still holds a completely different place in his heart.

He would never stand idly by and watch this place be drawn into the political turmoil of the court.

After leaving the main hall of the Buddhist temple, we walked to a secluded place.

Qi Su turned her head and called out.

"Black Bird".

Sure enough, an echo came from a tree branch not far away.

"What do you need, my lady?"

The voice was unfamiliar.

It wasn't the three, four, or five that Qi Su was familiar with.

But it doesn't matter.

"You stay at Ciyun Temple and take care of the young monks here."

The black bird's voice sounded troubled.

“My lady, my master commands that I must not leave your side.”

Qi Su smiled gently.

"If you do as I say now, both of us will be fine. Otherwise, I'll beat you up right now. And when your master comes back, I'll say you were the one who harassed me."

Black Bird...

They all live in the same nest, and everyone knows how much the master dotes on his wife.

He even flirted with her; does he have a death wish?

Just follow orders.

Anyway, Lady Qi's skills are unfathomable, and she also knows poisons and Gu.

In this capital city, no one can hurt her.

…

Qi Su jumped over the wall again and returned to the vicinity of the mountain gate.

As a result, the horse she had tied up so carefully in the woods next to the mountain gate was nowhere to be found.

She walked around in the woods.

A voice came from above.

"Hey, what are you looking for?"

The person was lying diagonally on a tree branch, wearing a blue robe, blending into the lush greenery of the forest, making him difficult to spot.

A pair of fox-like eyes reflected the light filtering through the leaves, clear and bright.

Qi Su: "Where's my horse?"

The man smiled, his eyes crinkling.

"They were released."

Before Qi Su could get angry, he immediately said, "Don't worry, don't worry, I have a carriage."

Qi Su: "Let's go."

The person fell from the tree.

"Hey, aren't you going to ask me why I'm here?"

Qi Su: "It's not important."

Shen Qingyu: "It's important. I deliberately stayed here, waiting for you to come to me. I've been waiting for you for several days. See, I finally caught you, didn't I?"

Qi Su sighed.

"You've come at a bad time. I'm not in the mood for chatting and laughing with you right now."

She looked up at the grove of trees.

He asked Shen Qingyu, "What do you think of this place?"

Shen Qingyu immediately shook her head.

"No, no! I don't like it here. I don't want this place to be my burial ground."

Wait, he actually understood what she meant.

Qi Su broke off a tender twig and flicked it at him.

"Since it's no good, why don't you get out of here? If you anger me, I'll bury it, and that's what I'll do. I don't care what your opinions are."

Shen Qingyu smiled and said:

"You have no conscience! I found out about your cheap husband and came here specifically to tell you."

The small branch that Qi Su had raised in mid-air fell back down.

"Tell me about it."

Shen Qingyu: "They're going to trick your cheap husband into coming back, and then kill him."

Qi Su: "What kind of secret is that? It's not surprising at all."

Shen Qingyu: "They plan to shoot him in the street and then pretend it was done by a refugee. As revenge for speaking up for the Great Yan Dynasty and persuading everyone to surrender."

Qi Su: "Oh."

That's not surprising.

Shen Qingyu: "Your Prince Qishan is already on his way to the capital and should arrive in two or three days. You should know that, right?"

I don't know that.

Her husband, once he released the rain, was like a fish entering the ocean, or rain entering the forest.

The main point is that there is no news at all.

Shen Qingyu smiled at her.

"Now that I'm hanging out with bad guys, I'm a little bad guy myself."

I'll gather more information for you. After your second cheap husband dies, will you marry me? I had someone calculate it; you'll only have a long-lasting marriage after three marriages.

Qi Su swung the small twig in her hand.

"You probably won't be able to get married. Because right now, you're about to lie dead in the ground under this forest."

Shen Qingyu jumped up from the tree.

"No, no! You can't get back to the city without me. Are you going to walk back?"

.

They rode back together in a horse-drawn carriage.

Shen Qingyu hadn't been alone with Qi Su for a long time, so she was very attentive to her.

It seems to be just as he said.

He was completely infatuated with Qi Su and was just waiting for her second husband to die so he could take over.

Qi Su would never believe he was a sycophant.

This person with a split personality can destroy someone with a few words.

He is pitiful, but only because he wants to appear pitiful.

Qi Su: "You smell strongly of blood."

Shen Qingyu: "Ah, did the smell bother you?"

He leaned closer to the carriage wall, curling his body into a ball.

"And now?"

Qi Su: "It's a little bit better."

The carriage curtain fluttered in the wind, revealing the gradually darkening twilight outside the window.

Shen Qingyu: "I miss Jincheng a little."

Qi Su looked out the window.

"Yes, Song Garden is such a large garden. Even in the entire capital, you can't find many gardens of that standard."

Shen Qingyu laughed silently.

As the carriage jolted along, I don't know which of my wounds was aggravated again.

He frowned, a hint of pain in his expression.

Soon, his expression turned indifferent again.

“Go back to Jincheng. I’ll do my best to make you the mistress of Song Garden.”

Qi Su: "You'd better try your best not to die in Ganjing. I can smell a slight rotten odor on you."

Shen Qingyu laughed: "No way. Someone as smart as me would only die after I've gotten what I want."

Qi Su did not ask him what he wanted.

Anyway, we're only destined to travel together for a short while.

The bonds don't need to be too deep.

.

The next morning, in the capital.

Qi Su booked a table upstairs at a small restaurant not far from the bustling Zhanxing area.

Today, we are to execute the Venerable Liaowu.

The Embroidered-Robe Envoy must have been very clear about his relationship with Yun Wuyi.

This is a devastating blow to the heart.

But it doesn't matter. Although Yun Wuyi lost the right to be a monk, he gained a good wife.

His dear wife will help him protect the monk he trusts most.

Qi Su took stock of the materials in her hands.

On the execution platform, officers were already clearing the area in preparation for the execution.

This restaurant is a bit far away; it would be better to go somewhere closer.

It was a public place with a large number of people, and it was windy today.

It is necessary to set up smoke points in advance at various windy locations, just in case.

Just as I was making plans, I suddenly heard someone shouting downstairs.

"Oh no! His Highness the Prince of Qishan is going to jump off the city wall!"
