Apart from Ling Feng, the other men all had red eyes and couldn't bear to blink at Su Qinghe.
“My lady, we are all fine. No one has noticed anything. The servants in the manor have all been sent to Shili Xiang as you instructed.”
Lin Xi stood in front of Su Qinghe, wanting to hug her, but considering the others around him, he didn't go forward.
Ji Yuan's heart and eyes were also filled with Su Qinghe.
"My lady, was the trip all right?"
Ji Qingyu looked at her longingly. "My lady, I've missed you so much!"
Looking at her husband, who was standing awkwardly in front of her, Su Qinghe smiled gently and went over to hug and kiss each of them.
"It's complicated, but Sister Qin and I are both fine. I'm just here to visit you all and I won't be staying long.
As she spoke, Su Qinghe also saw Qin Anmin's husband standing not far away.
"Are all the gentlemen here alright?"
Su Qinghe released Qin Ange and walked to the center of the cellar.
Seeing this, Qin Anmin's husband became somewhat anxious.
"Sister-in-law, we are all fine, but why didn't my wife come back with us? I hope something happened to her."
There were more than a dozen men standing behind him, all looking at Su Qinghe with worried expressions.
The young master Ling had already told them the whole story, and when he came to their residence to take them away, they all agreed without hesitation.
Having lived in fear in this cellar for two days, and now that Qin Anmin was nowhere to be seen, he was even more panicked.
Seeing their pale faces, Su Qinghe quickly explained and comforted them, recounting the key events that had occurred in the mountains.
"Brother-in-law, don't worry, Sister Qin will be fine."
After he finished speaking, their expressions improved somewhat, but they were still worried.
"I never expected Luo Pinzheng to be so audacious. If it weren't for my sister-in-law being by my side, I'm afraid... sob sob..."
As he spoke, Qin Anmin's husband choked up, his eyes filled with gratitude as he looked at Su Qinghe.
Seeing this, Lin Xi and the others quickly offered words of comfort.
"Commander Qin is An Ge's sister, and she is also a close friend of our mistress. It is only natural for them to help each other. My lord, please stop crying. Commander Qin is alright, isn't she?"
As the others comforted her, Su Qinghe pulled Ling Feng over.
"I have threatened Luo Pinzheng this time, and she will probably send people to the manor soon. If they find this place, it will be fine if there are only a few people, but if there are many, you must make good use of what I gave you."
Ling Feng nodded silently, his grip on Su Qinghe's hand tightening involuntarily.
"My lady, you must be careful. If something happens to you... I... I won't be able to give you so many children..."
He was a little shy and spoke very softly, but his eyes met Su Qinghe's intently.
Su Qinghe was taken aback, then chuckled and pinched his cheek.
"Don't worry, you won't get away! I, Su Qinghe, always seek revenge. I haven't gotten my money back yet, and I'll crawl back to you even if I have to."
Su Qinghe was joking, but Ling Feng shook his head seriously. "Crawling won't work, we have to walk back."
“If you really manage to climb back up, I estimate you won’t be able to have children anymore.”
"You still dare to look down on me?" Su Qinghe laughed in anger and reached out to pinch the back of his neck.
Ling Feng gritted his teeth and stared stubbornly at Su Qinghe.
Su Qinghe had no choice but to nod and promise him.
"Okay, okay, I promise I'll walk back. Really, it's no big deal. Don't make it sound like a life-or-death situation. Don't you know what I have on me?"
Before Ling Feng could speak again, Su Qinghe stood up and walked to the bedside.
There were four soft little balls lying on it.
"Little Wang'er, Little Le'er, Little Cheng'er, and my Little Wangyou, come here, let Mommy hug you!"
Looking at the four little ones kicking their legs and crawling around on the bed, Su Qinghe's eyes were filled with tenderness that almost overflowed with tears.
It's so late; they must have been woken up by the conversation earlier, but they're quiet and haven't cried at all. So well-behaved! No wonder they're Su Qinghe's children!
"Ya~ Ya~"
When Su Qinghe picked her up, Su Wangyou's eyes widened instantly, and she stretched out her two chubby hands to hug Su Qinghe's head.
There was another bed on the other side, and all of Qin Anmin's children were on it.
Su Qinghe glanced at them quickly, not having much time to chat with Lin Xi and the others. She kissed each of them on the forehead and hurried off to the Commandant's Mansion.
She ran as fast as she could down the mountain, even using her internal energy, and managed to get back to the mansion in the dead of night.
Having lingered in the cellar for a while, the sky was now beginning to lighten, and it looked like it would be fully light in about half an hour.
There were still few people on the street. Su Qinghe moved with lightning speed and quickly climbed over the guardhouse.
Without stopping for a moment, she went straight to the study.
She had been to the Qin residence countless times, and could be said to know the place as well as she did her own home. Therefore, Su Qinghe quickly entered Qin Anmin's study.
"who?!"
A figure flashed past her eyes, and Su Qinghe's eyes turned cold. She pushed off with her feet and quickly chased after it.
However, before she could catch up, the man stopped and turned around.
"Is it... Qinghe?" the man asked uncertainly.
Su Qinghe paused. "This voice sounds familiar..."
But the person in front of him was completely covered in black, so his face was not visible at all.
Su Qinghe thought for a moment, then tentatively asked, "Sister Baili?"
Upon hearing this, Baili Honglan clapped her hands excitedly, "It's me! It's me!"
Once they realized it was someone they knew, both of them lowered their guard. Baili Honglan ripped off her mask and strode up to Su Qinghe.
"Qinghe, do you know where Anmin went?"
Bai Li Honglan looked anxious.
“I just got back. I had something important to discuss with her, but I searched the entire mansion and couldn’t find her. The men in her household were also nowhere to be found. I was so worried! I was just thinking of going to your mansion to ask you.”
Su Qinghe did not answer her immediately, but instead grabbed her arm and pulled her into the study.
"Perfect timing, I also have something to tell you."
Su Qinghe recounted in detail everything that had happened in recent days to her.
After hearing this, Baili Honglan's expression changed drastically.
"Treason? That serious? What I'm about to say is also related to this matter."
Seeing that Su Qinghe was waiting, she then told Qin Anmin what she had originally intended to say.
“I’ve been on business in several nearby counties these past few days and I’ve noticed that several of them are acting strangely.”
"..."
Su Qinghe listened quietly to her finish speaking, and finally gave her a positive answer.
"The person behind this is likely to make a big move soon, Sister Baili, you need to send a message back to the capital as soon as possible."
Seeing Baili Honglan nod, Su Qinghe thought for a moment and decided to ask anyway.
"Luo Pinzheng said that the person behind the scenes is the Crown Princess. What is your opinion on this?"
Baili Honglan's eyes widened.
"You believe her father's nonsense! I am the Crown Princess's woman!"
