Chapter 172 Entering Liang Mansion at Night



The sky was getting dark at this time.

Tong Wen Yao took He Chuan and climbed up the wall from a tree near the wall. She had already seen the layout of the house when she came in. From here, they walked through the corridor and then through the garden and arrived at the peach blossom courtyard.

He Chuan frowned and followed Tong Wen Yao with the corpse on his back. Tong Wen Yao looked up at He Chuan on the wall and whispered, "Come down quickly!"

His lips moved up and down as he said silently, "I'm scared." Tong Wen Yao had forgotten that He Chuan was afraid of heights. It was just that when they were climbing the tree in the afternoon, he dared to climb. Why was he afraid of heights now when he had to jump over the wall?

Tong Wen Yao was a little helpless and whispered, "I'll catch it." After hesitating for a few seconds, He Chuan closed his eyes and jumped down.

"Ouch!" Tong Wen Yao caught the female corpse and let He Chuan fall to the ground.

"Wen Yao, why didn't you catch me." Tong Wen Yao took a look at the makeup on the female corpse. Fortunately, it was still there, otherwise she would have fallen and been disfigured.

Perhaps because He Chuan fell and made a louder noise, someone not far away shouted, "Who is it?" Tong Wen Yao reacted quickly and immediately pulled He Chuan to hide in the bamboo forest.

The guard who came over saw some traces of trampling on the ground and looked very unhappy. He quickly said to the person next to him, "It looks like someone has been here." Another person's face flushed and he said nonchalantly, "Who would come here? Let's go! The master will send us to carry more goods later."

The man also heard that if he was late and was seen by the master, he would be severely scolded and even have his salary deducted.

After the two of them walked away, Tong Wenyao and He Chuan came out together.

"Let me carry the female corpse, and you can walk by yourself." He Chuan disagreed at first, but after Tong Wen Yao persuaded him, he put the female corpse on her back.

Looking at the backs of the two guards as they walked away, she thought to herself that the guards of the Liang residence were not very good. When passing through the corridor, He Chuan was discovered. Tong Wen Yao immediately hid aside with the female corpse on her back, leaving He Chuan running around in the yard. Listening to the barking of dogs and He Chuan's wailing, Tong Wen Yao silently lit a candle for him in her heart.

With He Chuan's help, Tong Wen Yao easily slipped into the Peach Garden. She carefully avoided the main courtyard and searched room by room, and finally found Xiao He in the last room.

"Xiao He, do you want to be Mr. Liang's concubine?" She was very embarrassed at the moment, but she asked her directly.

Xiao He didn't answer after hearing this. Instead, he asked, "Who are you and why did you save me?"

Tong Wenyao saw the vigilance in her eyes and couldn't help but smile and asked, "I need you to stir up the capital."

Xiao He's expression relaxed after hearing this and he said, "Sir, you are joking. I am just a lowly grain of sand. How can I stir up the storm?"

Tong Wenyao looked at the package on the table and asked, "Can't you guess who I am? Then why did you keep the package I gave you?"

Xiao He glanced at her, then sat down and said, "I guessed it. You're from the Tong family? But are you the eldest or second son?"

"I guessed wrong. I was the one who saved you from Li Yuansi. I just didn't expect that you would end up back in Wanhua Tower."

Xiao He smiled bitterly, "I sold myself to enter Wanhua Tower in order to save my sister, but she disappeared among the refugees, and now all I have left is Wanhua Tower."

Tong Wenyao said, "I need your help. You've heard that countless women have died under Mr. Liang's hands. Do you want to become one of his men?"

"My sister is gone, what's the point of me living?" Tong Wenyao said, "You still owe me your life. If I hadn't saved you, do you think you could have escaped from under the Li family's noses?"

At this point, Xiao He's face flashed with emotion, and then he agreed: "Okay, then I will do things for you and give you a life."

After Xiao He agreed, Tong Wen Yao quickly dragged the female corpse to the bed, then took out a tinder and lit it. She first put kerosene on the female corpse, and as soon as the tinder was lit, it instantly caught fire. Tong Wen Yao didn't have time to talk to her, and directly pulled her out.

She pulled Xiao He and hid in a tree in the garden. People were coming and going below, shouting, "The fire is coming! The fire is coming!"

By the time Master Liang arrived, the fire had already spread to a large extent. "Quick, quick, help! My beauty is still inside!"

Seeing that everyone was putting out the fire, Tong Wenyao climbed down from the tree and brought Xiaohe to the wall where they had climbed in.

"You climb up by stepping on my shoulders." Xiao He glanced behind him and saw that someone had obviously seen them. He gritted his teeth, stepped directly on her thighs, and then stepped on her shoulders to climb up the wall.

Tong Wen Yao saw that the person behind her was obviously running towards her, so she took a few steps back and then jumped up. Fortunately, Xiao He caught her from above and pulled her up.

He Chuan was waiting outside at this time. Tong Wen Yao asked Xiao He to go down first and she would follow behind. When the servants came running over with weapons, Tong Wen Yao scattered all the powder in her hand and then jumped down.

He Chuan led them out of the alley, but unexpectedly ran into the group that He Chuan had led away earlier. Tong Wenyao pushed Xiao He into He Chuan's arms and said, "You go first, I'll follow behind." He Chuan didn't dare to delay and took Xiao He's hand and ran away. After Tong Wenyao saw them running away, she picked up a wooden stick and fought them.

However, Tong Wen Yao was not stupid enough to fight with five or six guards. She fought while retreating. When she turned the corner, she threw objects at them, ran to the alley, climbed over the wall, and then climbed a tree to someone else's yard.

Then he stopped, breathing heavily,

"Ah! Ah! Someone come quickly!" Tong Wenyao saw Chan'er screaming and calling for help. She pulled her over, covered her mouth, and said, "Chan'er, it's me!"

Chan'er struggled. If Tong Wenyao hadn't been practicing martial arts recently, she would have been unable to control her. "Chan'er, it's me, Tong Wenyao, who saved you in the Tiger Gang."

Hearing this, Chan'er stopped struggling. Tong Wenyao continued, "I'll let you go, don't scream!"

Seeing her nod, Tong Wen Yao took her hand away. Seeing Chan'er turned around with a look of suspicion, the young man in front of her asked in a familiar voice, "Where is your young lady?" Chan'er was sure that the person in front of her was Tong Wen Yao.

"Miss Yao, please follow me."

Following Chan'er to the door, she whispered, "Miss Yao, please wait a moment."

She knocked on the door, and a cold voice came from inside, "What's the matter?"

Chan'er then pushed open the door and said, "Miss, Miss Tong is here." A hint of surprise flashed across Wei Zhuyue's face, and she said, "Is it Tong Wenyao, Miss Tong?"

She replied, "Exactly."

"Please come in quickly."

When Tong Wenyao came in, Wei Zhuyue was only wearing an outer coat. Seeing that it was a man coming in, she screamed,

Fortunately, Tong Wenyao spoke in time: "Zhu Yue, it's me."
