Chapter 80 Fishing
She didn't let Uncle Chen and others come over because she was afraid that there would be too many people protecting Yan Qinghao, and they would fight to the death if they saw the guards guarding the exit.
So she didn't tell Uncle Chen and the others the truth, but just asked them to guard outside the door while she waited here alone.
The first time Yan Qinghao saw her, he would definitely not regard her as a threat. She could also observe the situation in advance to avoid putting Uncle Chen and others in danger.
Below the secret passage.
The people in the Governor's Office were shocked when they saw Yan Qinghao falling from the exit.
The group thought something dangerous was thrown down, and took a step back cautiously at first, causing Yan Qinghao to fall heavily to the ground.
Yan Qinghao was already seriously injured. He was knocked unconscious and felt unbearable pain in his stomach and lower back.
"It's Marquis Dingyuan!"
The guards from the Governor's Office immediately saw the figure clearly, then rushed forward and grabbed Yan Qinghao.
Someone had already prepared the ropes, and the next moment he was tied up again.
"Commander-in-chief, the man has been caught!"
Yan Fengxiao walked out from the crowd.
After seeing Yan Qinghao who had been captured, the coldness on his face deepened.
He raised his head and glanced at the exit, vaguely sensing that something was wrong outside.
Staying in the secret passage was somewhat risky, so he immediately gave the order.
"Go up first."
"Yes, Governor!"
A group of people crawled out of the secret passage one after another.
Then they saw a scene that shocked them.
In the yard over here, a large group of people wearing the uniforms of the general's guards were guarding here. On the ground next to them, there were two bodies of men in black lying.
The two men were both determined to die. Faced with the situation of certain death and afraid of being interrogated, they simply bit open the poison sacs in their mouths.
Qin Mingzhu stood in front of the guards of the general's mansion. She raised her eyes and smiled at Yan Fengxiao who came out of the exit. "I have nothing to do tonight, so I came here for a walk."
A look of surprise flashed across Yan Fengxiao's eyes.
But soon, his eyes flashed slightly and his gaze met Qin Mingzhu's.
"Thank you, ma'am, for what happened today."
When others call you Madam, it is just a courtesy.
However, when it came out of Yan Fengxiao's mouth, it felt very meaningful.
Qin Mingzhu glanced sideways in Yan Qinghao's direction. Seeing his miserable appearance, she suddenly smiled and asked, "What does the governor intend to do with him?"
Yan Fengxiao didn't even think twice: "Kill him."
As soon as these words came out, Yan Qinghao felt his scalp tingling, and with a look of horror in his eyes, he said: "Yan Fengxiao, I am the Marquis of Dingyuan, and I am also your brother. You can't kill me!"
Yan Fengxiao narrowed his eyes, and his phoenix eyes looked particularly dangerous at this moment.
The black robe made a slight sound when walking, as if it was carrying the cold snow in deep winter.
He approached Yan Qinghao step by step, and the moment the long sword in his hand was unsheathed was enough to make people feel like they were falling into purgatory.
Yan Qinghao watched the cold light approaching.
He opened his mouth wide, as if there was no air around him at this moment, making it impossible for him to breathe.
The overwhelming feeling of suffocation had already caused cold sweat to seep into his back, and a feeling of dizziness came over him.
"Third brother, let's talk it over. I know a secret, a secret about your biological mother! Your mother was already pregnant when she entered the mansion as a concubine. Everyone said that your mother gave birth prematurely. In fact, you are not a member of my Yan family at all. My mother knew this a long time ago, but she didn't kick you out of the house. My Yan family is indebted to you!"
Yan Fengxiao paused.
He raised his head and looked coldly at Yan Qinghao, whose face had turned pale with fear.
In order to survive, Yan Qinghao didn't care about anything else. He opened his eyes wide and suppressed the fear in his heart.
He continued, "If you don't believe it, you can ask some of the old people who stayed in the mansion back then. They all know the truth!
In order to conceal this matter, my father sent them to a farm outside the city to live out their retirement early to avoid it being exposed.
My father took in your mother, who was pregnant out of wedlock, and gave you and your son a chance to survive. Now that my mansion has fallen into decline, how can you kill his son with such a clear conscience? "
Upon hearing this, Yan Fengxiao silently raised his long sword, his eyes showing no fluctuation or change.
"I'm not interested in knowing."
His movements were not fast, but very determined.
It seemed that Yan Qinghao had to be beheaded on the spot.
It can be seen that there is some personal grudge involved.
As Yan Qinghao's ex-wife, Qin Mingzhu did not plead for mercy.
On the contrary, he wanted to urge Yan Fengxiao to act faster.
Just as the long knife in Yan Fengxiao's hand was about to fall on Yan Qinghao's neck...
Something strange happened!
A stone hit the blade of the long sword in Yan Fengxiao's hand, causing the blade that was originally aimed at Yan Qinghao's neck to deviate from its direction.
Suddenly, a figure rushed out from among the guards of the Governor's Mansion. The man quickly threw Yan Qinghao to the ground, then pulled something out from his waist, and a firework suddenly appeared in the sky.
Everyone else in the Governor's Mansion was stunned. After entering the secret passage, it was dark inside and no one noticed when one more person appeared in the crowd.
This person hid very well, even wearing the uniform of a guard of the Governor's Mansion. He had been following at the back of the group.
This sudden change made many people feel a chill in their hearts and a chill in their necks.
But he reacted quickly, rushed forward with a sword, and stabbed the assassin who suddenly jumped out!
The Governor's Office had a large number of people and the man who suddenly ran out was no match at all. He only resisted for a few rounds before being chopped into a bloody gourd and lying on the ground.
After defeating the enemy, everyone looked around with lingering fear, careful to prevent anyone else from sneaking in.
After confirming everyone's identities, the people in the Governor's Office breathed a sigh of relief.
"What's going on? When did he get in?"
"Maybe he's been hiding in the mansion, sneaking in when we came down!"
"What did those fireworks just mean?"
The fireworks have dissipated in mid-air.
Yan Fengxiao, who was anxious to kill Yan Qinghao just now, just raised his head and looked at the sky without saying a word.
There was a little blood on the front of the long sword, which was left by the chopping of Yan Qinghao's neck just now.
He was not surprised by the accident, his expression remained calm, he just opened his thin lips and spoke softly.
"Should have taken the bait."
Qin Mingzhu raised her eyebrows and heard Yan Fengxiao muttering to himself. At this moment, she understood what he meant.
She suddenly walked to his side and asked, "Did the governor deliberately use him as bait to fish?"
Yan Fengxiao nodded slightly and looked at Qin Mingzhu with his dark eyes.
There was a hint of murderous intent in his voice.
"If you want to kill him, then we should work together to find a way to get rid of him. Otherwise, there will be endless trouble. Use him as bait, and the person behind it will show up in person."
Qin Mingzhu blinked and smiled at Yan Fengxiao.
"Thank you very much."
Yan Fengxiao thought for a moment and suddenly said, "After the hidden danger is eliminated, you can marry me with peace of mind."
