Chapter 213 The Secret of Searching the Yard



Han Lan spy?

Si Jinxing raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard these words. If you want to accuse someone of a crime, you can always find a pretext!

She looked at Mo Qiu and asked in a low voice:

"Master Huang beside Jia Wensheng, have you ever seen your face?

Also, have arrangements been made for the person you rescued and the one who was rescued from prison two days ago?"

Mo Qiu immediately replied:

“I haven’t seen it. I had a cloth covering my face that day, so I don’t think Mr. Huang would recognize me.

Those people from the Red Gang have just been escorted out of the house, so please rest assured, Princess."

As soon as Mo Qiu finished speaking, someone outside the door shouted:

"Listen up, people inside!

This house has been completely surrounded by us, you have no chance of escape!

If you don't open the door, you will be resisting arrest. Regardless of whether you are spies or not, you will be dragged directly to the government office and punished with fifty strokes of the cane!"

Si Jinxing glanced at Xue Yong who was guarding the door and nodded.

Xue Yong stepped forward and just as he removed the two bolts one by one, the door was suddenly pushed open from the outside!

Two rows of yamen runners rushed in quickly, drew their swords and stood in a row, blocking the front!

Si Jinxing, protected by Qingchan, took two steps back. Looking forward, she saw Jia Wensheng striding in!

Behind him were Master Huang and Liu Xitang, whose hand was broken.

A hundred or so yamen runners and government soldiers tightly protected the three men, just like they were there to capture a traitor as ferocious as a flood or a beast!

Si Jinxing raised her eyes slightly and said coldly:

"Excuse me, sir, who reported this to you? Do you have any evidence? You're accusing us of being thieves without any evidence?"

When she said this, Jia Wensheng, who was surrounded by the crowd, had already noticed her.

The woman in the portrait was quite good, but not even one tenth as pretty as the woman in front of him!

The woman was wearing a plain dress with a light green satin cloak embroidered with a pattern of birds climbing branches.

Her long hair was casually tied up, and the rest of the hair hung naturally behind her, blowing freely in the autumn wind, making her cold face look like a fairy who was not of this world!

He was so engrossed in watching that he didn't hear what the woman said until Master Huang beside him gently tugged at his sleeve, and he came to his senses.

No wonder the Nine Yama Luo changed his temperament and agreed to this marriage!

It’s just a pity that this woman shouldn’t have survived!

He coughed lightly and looked around, only to see that there were only four or five people in the yard.

Jia Wensheng felt relieved and said:

"As for the evidence, I certainly have it. When the court is in session, I will show it to you, young lady!

Girl, there is no need to be afraid. After I search the yard, I will prove that you are innocent and not spies.

I will naturally give the girl justice!"

Upon hearing this, Si Jinxing looked at Jia Wensheng and said:

"Sir, are you planning to let so many officials into my yard?

I'm afraid this is a bit inappropriate, isn't it?

What if any of them secretly smuggles stolen goods into our yard while the yard is being searched, and then we can cry out that we’ve found them!

Wouldn’t that be a frame-up?”

She ignored Jia Wensheng's darkening expression and said with a smile:

“Since you are going to search my yard, you might as well search these people that your Excellency has brought with you first.

Don't accuse me of not cooperating with the investigation. I'm just being cautious, Mr. Jia, don't you agree?"

Seeing this, Master Huang said coldly:

"You daring traitor! Our Lord is speaking to you in a friendly manner. How dare you even think of searching the yamen?"

After he finished speaking, he waved his hand and shouted, "Search!"

Seeing this, Mo Qiu and Qing Chan pretended to stop them, but the palace soldiers and yamen runners immediately drew their swords!

Si Jinxing caught a glimpse of the glint in Jia Wensheng's eyes, reached out to stop the two of them, and said loudly:

"Don't act rashly. If we resist, we might just fall into their trap."

As soon as these words were spoken, Jia Wensheng, whose worries were exposed, looked extremely ugly!

The best thing about this house search is that these people obstruct the search. Then he can accuse them of rebellion and execute them first and report to the emperor later!

But now, the plan was easily exposed, and Jia Wensheng realized that the Princess of Anping was more difficult to deal with than he thought!

He chose to remain silent and watched as several yamen runners in front of him were about to step into the Chuihua Gate!

As long as that person brings the token into the courtyard, even if the Princess of Anping has a hundred mouths, she still won’t be able to explain herself!

Si Jinxing glanced in the direction that Jia Wensheng was looking, and flicked his fingers under his sleeve, and a silver needle flew out!

One of the yamen runners felt a pain in his foot and fell forward immediately!

He was also a fool. He grabbed the token in his hand before entering the yard!

With this fall, the thing in his hand also fell to the ground!

This sudden scene shocked everyone in the courtyard, and even the yamen runners at the hanging flower gate stopped in their tracks.

Jia Wensheng looked at the thing on the ground, and the smug look in his eyes instantly turned into fear!

He subconsciously looked at Si Jinxing who was standing in front of him, only to see her turning her head and looking at him with a smile on her face.

Jia Wensheng's heart trembled. The woman was clearly smiling, but that smile was creepy!

He immediately looked at the yamen runner beside him and gave him a wink.

But it was too late, and a figure appeared out of nowhere.

The man picked up the thing on the ground first and handed it to the Anping County Lady!

Jia Wensheng didn't know this person, but Liu Xitang recognized him in the crowd!

Isn't this the Song Xiner whom he had flirted with in the farm outside Qingcheng County?

He immediately stepped forward and said sarcastically, "Hey, isn't this Miss Xin'er?

Did you know that I was coming, so you rushed out to meet me?

Don’t tell me, I’ve never met anyone who can serve others better than you…”

Before he could finish his words, he suddenly felt a pain in his mouth!

A small stone stained with blood fell to the ground and rolled several times before it stopped!

Song Xiner was so angry that her teeth were chattering when she heard Liu Xitang's shameless words.

Seeing him like this now, I just wish I hadn't knocked out all his teeth with my own hands!

The yamen runners and soldiers who were laughing loudly fell silent when they saw this!

They looked around and found that this house seemed very unusual. Could it be that Han Lan Gaoshu was really there?

But suddenly a wailing sound was heard!

Liu Xitang rolled up his sleeves, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and cried out:

"My lips! My teeth! Who is it? Which grandson is doing this in secret?! Get out here, grandpa!"

However, Jia Wensheng didn't care at all whether Liu Xitang had lost a tooth or a cracked lip!

He stared at the Princess of Anping in secret shock, only to see her unfold the object in her hand, glance at it, and then smile.

For some reason, he always felt a chill on his back...
