Chapter 179 Who Takes Action



"You don't know when the people moved away."

"You don't even know where they went."

"The job has been completed like this, what else do you have to say?"

"The Lord just let you go and didn't involve your family. Isn't this a grace?"

As they watched the bodies of the two Royal Guards being carried out, the expressions of the people in the yard did not change.

Everyone has to bear the consequences of their own mistakes, and it is a blessing if your family is not implicated.

Lu Yunqi must be in a bad mood right now. Captain Jiang hesitated outside the door for a moment, but unfortunately what he brought was not some good news that would make people happy.

He walked in and was about to say something when someone followed him in.

This is a young man dressed as a peddler, holding a bamboo basket in his hand, with someone unknown inside that smelled fragrant.

The fragrance did not soothe the atmosphere in this gloomy room. Lu Yunqi looked at the two people who came in with a blank expression.

"Sir, there is no unusual movement around, and no special people are approaching." said the peddler.

Lu Yunqi just hummed, without asking any questions or speaking.

The vendor responded by trying to leave, but then he thought of something and stopped.

"But." He hesitated.

Lu Yunqi looked at him.

"Speak," he said.

"But today a bell doctor came to the alley behind the Guandi Temple," the vendor said, "and he treated the neighbor of that family."

Bell doctor?

"Is it Miss Jun from Jiulingtang?" Jiang Baihu interrupted.

The vendor nodded.

"That's her," he said. "She said there was something ominous about that woman."

This is not surprising, Miss Jun has always used this routine.

"It seems that there are no patients recently, and being a doctor and teacher is boring." Jiang Baihu said, and took the opportunity to tell Lu Yunqi about the incident at Jiulingtang. "So now it seems that those doctors can't be united against Jiulingtang."

Lu Yunqi said "oh" and looked at Captain Jiang.

"Jiulingtang," he said, "Is that still her name?"

Captain Jiang was stunned for a moment and then nodded.

"Of course," he said.

The name has already been established, how can it be changed?

However, once the reputation is raised, this is not what Lu Yunqi wants to see.

"Sir, although some doctors have changed their opinion of her, some have not. I will go find some..." Jiang Baihu continued.

Lu Yunqi stood up and moved his neck slightly, as if to relieve the stiffness from maintaining the same posture for so long.

"Oh," he said, "don't bother."

. ……

Miss Jun walked slowly on the street, the bell in her hand still ringing, and people around her were still greeting her enthusiastically. Although she had a smile on her face, her eyes could not hide a bit of anxiety.

How come it disappeared?

Why did Bing'er's sister disappear?

Last time, I didn't dare to go closer and ask, but now the time is right, the place is right, and I can get closer to this place by borrowing the name of Jiulingtang and Lingyi, and getting close to Bing'er's sister will not arouse suspicion.

But I didn't expect that the person was gone.

It would be understandable if she was not there at the beginning. But a year ago, she suddenly entered the palace to assassinate the emperor. Such an unusual action would definitely be investigated. Maybe Bing'er would be found out, and then Bing'er's sister would naturally be found out as well. In that case, it would be absolutely impossible to keep them.

But I just heard from the woman that Bing'er's sister and her family had been living here, but they left these few days.

This means that the incident may not have been exposed yet.

But why did it happen right after I arrived in the capital, instead of earlier? This meant someone must have known about this. Did I arouse suspicion?

This is impossible.

That's absolutely impossible. I have been careful enough.

What is going on?

"Miss, Miss." Liu'er shouted.

Miss Jun stopped, calmed herself down a little, and looked at Liu'er.

"Miss, do you still want to turn?" Liu'er asked with a puzzled look.

Only then did Miss Jun realize that she had arrived in front of the Jiuling Hall.

That was really out of control.

The situation has become a little complicated now, and we must be more careful.

"Forget it, I'm too tired. I won't turn today." She said with a smile.

Liu'er happily took her medicine box and went in first. Miss Jun sighed lightly, lowered her head and also went in.

"Now that you're back, it's time for dinner." Chen Qi said with a smile, swinging his arms in the yard.

There was a hint of sourness in his words, but unfortunately Miss Jun was absent-minded and ignored him, and Liu'er didn't understand at all.

"Have you finished your work?" Liuer asked. "Don't just think about eating."

Chen Qi rolled his eyes in choking.

Just as he was about to speak, there was a sudden commotion outside the door, accompanied by the sound of horse hooves and footsteps, and it seemed that many people were approaching the door.

"Miss Jun, Miss Jun." The doorman ran in with a pale face and pointed outside, "Oh no, the Jinyiwei are here."

Royal Guard?

The expressions of the people in the yard froze slightly.

"What's the big deal? This isn't his first time here." Chen Qi said calmly, "He must be here to see a doctor again."

He shook his head as he spoke, somewhat helplessly.

"Our rules are useless to them. Miss Jun can only be wronged. Anyway, even if the rules are violated, others will not say anything. After all, they are the Jinyiwei. Everyone understands. I will go and see."

As he spoke, he walked out. Fang Jinxiu hesitated for a moment, then continued to pour the herbs into the basket. She glanced at Miss Jun out of the corner of her eye, and her hand paused again.

Miss Jun's expression was a little stiff, as if she had not yet come to her senses.

She had never looked like this before.

Whether facing the doubts of his family or the provocations of the young ladies in Yangcheng, or even when facing Lin Zhubu and Jinyiwei, his expression was calm and composed.

But at this moment she was actually a little surprised.

This matter must be serious.

Could it be the same thing as last time...

Fang Jinxiu put down the herbs in her hand, rolled up her sleeves and walked out quickly.

Miss Jun also took a deep breath. No matter what it was, she had to face it since it had come.

She walked out and caught up with Fang Jinxiu, but then passed her.

Fang Jinxiu glared at her and said, "Look what you can do."

Miss Jun walked into the hall, but there was no one there. Chen Qi was standing at the door, looking outside, his face somewhat pale.

Miss Jun walked over and saw a team of Jinyiwei standing outside the door. There were many people watching on the street, but there was no noise at all. All the people's eyes were fixed with fear and avoidance on the man who was still riding a horse in front of Jiuling Hall.

The man on the horse was also wearing a Feiyu suit and a spring sword. His face looked even paler in the late autumn sunlight, and he looked murderous.

Lu Yunqi.

He actually came in person.

Is it related to what happened to Sister Bing'er today?

Miss Jun looked at him.

Lu Yunqi didn't look at her, his eyes seemed to be forever unfocused as he swept across the plaque of Jiuling Hall.

"Pick it." he said.

As soon as he finished speaking, two Jinyiwei soldiers stepped forward, drew out their Xiuchun swords, jumped up and struck the plaque with the back of the swords.

With a click, the plaque of Jiuling Hall fell down suddenly.

The people on the street as well as Chen Qiliuer, Fang Jinxiu and others all cried out in surprise.

The plaque of Jiuling Hall fell to the ground with a muffled sound, raising dust.
