Chapter 388 Chapter 387 Midnight Fright

When it was late at night and everyone was asleep, An Xin changed into his night clothes and flew out of the village, disappearing into the night like a mountain spirit.

A bright moon hung in the sky, and a dark cloud floated in the distance, gradually blocking the moon's light.

The garrison soldiers on the Lingnan city wall were resting against the arrow tower. They were on duty and did not dare to fall asleep. They felt a gust of cold wind blowing past them, and they opened their eyes dazedly a little, but found nothing, so they closed their eyes again and continued to sleep.

There was a lantern hanging in various places in the county magistrate's mansion. As long as it was not a remote place, it would not be so dark even at night.

At this time, something inappropriate for children was happening in a main room in the backyard.

A hint of doubt flashed in the eyes of the black shadow lying under the eaves, and she turned her head with eyes as calm and clear as autumn water to look.

I thought to myself, that’s right!

This is the main house in the main courtyard, which is usually the master bedroom where the master and mistress of the mansion live.

Could it be that the information they obtained was wrong?

If the facts are not the same as what Li Ziyu and Kong Xun have found out, then his guess may be invalid, and this Xin County Magistrate is still Xin County Magistrate.

However, during the interrogation of Wang Yuantao, he said harshly that his current master was not as kind as his previous master.

If the master behind him knew that his spy died in the Daniuling stronghold, he would definitely not let them go.

All these signs made it hard for her not to make a bold guess.

“…”

Didn't you say you weren't going into the backyard? What did the low panting inside mean?

Perhaps the black shadow felt that eavesdropping was not something a serious person like her should do.

So she left quietly, just as she came quietly, waving her sleeves and leaving without taking away a cloud.

Just as An Xin was thinking, since he was already here, he might as well take a tour of the study in the county magistrate's mansion.

He found the right direction and flew away. As soon as he landed on the roof, he heard a commotion coming from the direction of the study: "A thief just tried to sneak into the study. Hurry up and take people to search all the courtyards."

When An Xin heard that someone was trying to sneak into the study of the county magistrate's mansion, he was shocked.

He thought that Kong Xun would not be so reckless. If he really did it, An Xin would have to consider whether to let King Liang's rebellion succeed.

With this IQ, not only did he waste the three years of training outside the capital, but he also went to waste the old emperor's tireless teaching and earnest expectations of him in the past two years.

He said so and thought so, but An Xin, who was standing on a high place, still discovered it at the first moment. When he saw the two figures below trying to hide in the dark and escape, he flew down in front of them.

"Old..." One of the young men hiding behind the rockery saw the man in black in front of him. After the initial surprise, he immediately recognized him.

"Woo..." But as soon as he uttered the word, another man who was half a head taller than him covered his mouth and said in a very low voice: "If you don't want to attract people, don't speak."

When they caught sight of An Xinqing looking at them, they lowered their heads silently, looking as if they had been caught by an adult for getting into trouble.

Kong Xun saw the lanterns in the distance reflecting the disappointment in An Xin's eyes. He pursed his thin lips and said nothing, but a hint of loss flashed in his eyes.

Shan Yongzhen also noticed that An Xin looked unhappy, and quickly admitted his mistake sincerely: "Teacher, I was wrong. I shouldn't have secretly come to the study room to find more information in the county governor's mansion, and even caused Brother Kong to come to me."

When he heard that it was his student who caused the trouble and also implicated the dragon egg, he came out to look for someone.

If it wasn't the right time and place to be angry, An Xin would have wanted to beat this kid up.

Just as An Xin was about to say that he would take them back, footsteps were heard not far from their abandoned and remote yard.

"Search... The mansion has been ordered to be strictly guarded. The thief can't escape. If everyone searches carefully, we will definitely catch him."

Sounds of searches were heard everywhere.

An Xin took a deep breath, suppressed the urge to beat him up, and lowered his voice: "I'll go and lead them away, you two quickly sneak back. If the guards search your place and find that you two are not there, hehe..."

Although An Xin did not say what came next, Kong Xun and Shan Yongzhen knew that the result would not be good.

This was not the time to waste time. Kong Xun knew An Xin's ability, so he nodded to her and took the troublemaker to find a dark place. They climbed over the wall of the courtyard and were not far from where they lived.

An Xin frowned when he saw the direction they were going, and thought to himself that something was wrong. The sounds of the guards searching just now came from that direction, and it was obvious that they would soon search the courtyard where they lived.

As soon as Kong Xun and Shan Yongzhen turned over and looked up, they saw a dark shadow flying quickly over their heads. Then the two of them climbed up another wall and looked in astonishment at a group of guards who were about to knock on their yard door.

They heard another group of guards who were searching not far behind them shouting, "Here, the thief is hiding here, hurry...hurry and catch him..."

A crackling sound was heard, and the guard who was about to knock on their gate hurriedly led his men over there in order to grab the credit.

At this time, whoever catches the person first can not only show off in front of his master, but also get a considerable reward.

Kong Xun and Shan Yongzhen breathed a sigh of relief, then climbed over the connecting courtyard wall and returned to the courtyard where they lived.

Shan Yongzhen wanted to follow him into the house, but Kong Xun turned his head back with a deep and cold look in his eyes and raised his hand to stop him. He whispered, "Go back to your room and sleep now. What happened tonight has nothing to do with us, understand?"

For the first time, Dan Yongyuan was shocked by the strength and majesty emanating from Kong Xun, who usually looked gentle and friendly. He trembled all over and nodded involuntarily, walking towards the room where he lived.

Kong Xun stood in the yard with a figure as slender and tall as a green bamboo, looking worriedly towards the direction where the noise came from.

Ever since he entered the county magistrate's mansion, he often slept in a light sleep. After all, it was difficult for him to sleep soundly in an unfamiliar place.

Late that night, he heard the sound of a door opening in the next room. He originally thought that Shan Yongzhen had gone out to relieve himself, but he didn't expect that he didn't hear him come back for a long time.

Kong Xun then realized something was wrong. He thought that Shan Yongzhen was An Xin's student, and it would be difficult for him to face An Xin if something happened to him.

Now Shan Yongzhen is still the servant he brought in. If he does something and gets caught, Kong Xun knows that he won't be able to escape.

So he could only think of going out and finding Shan Yongzhen before anyone found out. After that, young people did less petty thefts.

As a result, they accidentally bumped into something and made a noise, and then they were hunted throughout the mansion.

An Xin took the guards of the county magistrate's mansion for a stroll twice, and unexpectedly he saw the county magistrate's wife sending her lover out.

If you want to ask how An Xin knew it, it was when she was running away that she saw the county magistrate hurriedly walk into the study to see if anything important had been stolen.

The woman who was quietly escorting someone out of the main room in the backyard with her clothes on, who else could she be if not the wife who was trying to attract the county magistrate?
