Ye Chen ran to Chen Qiu and hugged him, with self-blame and fear in his eyes.
Shen Qiu felt the person holding him trembling, so he reached out and patted Ye Chen on the back, comforting him: "I'm fine, I'm really fine, I'm not hurt at all."
Ye Chen was speechless, he just hugged Chen Qiu, and then called out: "Xing'er, find Lan Yu."
Lan Yu studies pharmacology with Xiao Hang every day. Except for sleeping in Qiuchen Courtyard, she spends the rest of the time in the medicine garden. No one knows when she comes back or when she leaves.
Anyway, the whole Qiuchen Courtyard was going to sleep at night but she was nowhere to be seen. The next day, when the maid entered her room, she found that someone had slept in the quilt.
Xing'er hurriedly responded and ran out. Chen Qiu pushed Ye Chen, but he didn't push her. Chen Qiu whispered, "Husband, I'm really fine, but if you keep holding me like this, I'm almost out of breath."
Ye Chen finally let go, his eyes red and frightening, and he choked up and said, "Qiu'er, don't take risks again."
Shen Qiu nodded solemnly and said, "I understand, but now we have to go to Rongwei Hall."
Ye Chen nodded, took Shen Qiu's hand, and walked towards Rongwei Hall with Xiaofu.
There were fights everywhere along the way. No wonder no one came to support Qiuchenyuan. It turned out that Xia Hanshan brought so many people that all the guards who practiced martial arts in the mansion were entangled.
On the way to Rongwei Hall, Xiaofu killed more than a dozen people by himself. When he arrived at Rongwei Hall, the fighting was still going on in the yard.
Xiaofu ran in without waiting for Ye Chen to speak. When Ye Chen and Shen Qiu entered, there were more than a dozen men in black lying in the yard, and some of them were fighting.
Ye Chen shouted: "Xiao Fu, leave him alive."
Xiaofu didn't respond, but he didn't hit them in the fatal spots. Xiaofu was very fast, and after a few turns, those people were knocked unconscious by Xiaofu.
Ye Chen asked Black Hawk to leave some people in Rongwei Hall, and let him lead the rest to search the entire Duke's Mansion to ensure that no one escapes.
Ye Chen and Shen Qiu entered the main hall. The old Duke and Madam Xiao were sitting in the hall. Nanny Sun stood beside Madam Xiao. Several maids were standing on the side. The old Duke was rubbing the ring in his hand.
Ye Chen came in and asked, "Grandpa and grandma, are you okay?"
The old Duke smiled and said, "It's okay. Your grandparents don't care about such a scene. How is it outside?"
Madam Xiao waved to the old Duke, and then said to Shen Qiu: "Xiao Qiu, how are you? Are you okay?" She looked at Shen Qiu's lower abdomen worriedly.
Shen Qiu walked to Xiao Taijun's side, touched her belly and said: "Grandma, don't worry, I'm fine. Everything outside has settled down. It's okay. Let my husband handle the rest."
Ye Chen responded: "Yes, Grandfather, leave it to me, I will handle it." As soon as Ye Chen went out, he bumped into Xiao Hang.
Xiao Hang said: "What happened? I heard the noise and came out with Lan Yu, but we were stopped by two men in black. We fought all the way here."
Lan Yu had already walked over to Chen Qiu and, while feeling her pulse, said, "I ran into Xing'er. She said you were violent?"
Chen Qiu nodded, and Ye Chen hurriedly asked: "How is it? Is Qiu'er okay?"
Lan Yu let go of Shen Qiu and said, "It's okay, the child is fine."
Then he said to Shen Qiu: "You are pregnant now. You must remember that you are a mother. Whatever you do now must be based on him, okay?" He pointed to Shen Qiu's lower abdomen.
Chen Qiu nodded. He had indeed been reckless today. If anything happened to the child, what would he do? Chen Qiu reached out and placed his hand on his lower abdomen.
Ye Chen looked at Chen Qiu, his hands slowly clenching into fists. This time, Princess Fuxia hadn't appeared. After searching the capital for so long, there was no news of her. Could it be that this woman wasn't in Kyoto?
That time, Mingyue came back and said that the woman had gone to Xiangguo Temple. Did she stay there? Or did Wenxin give her some instructions, forcing her to leave temporarily?
What was most important to her now? Money. Yes, she held all the capital in her own hands. If she had no money, all her plans would have to be postponed. Her most important thing now was to get enough money to support the team.
Without money, her army cannot be formed, so she must be trying to find a way to raise money.
It seems I have to go to Xiangguo Temple.
Chen Qiu and Lan Yu sat in the house with the old Duke and Madam Xiao. Xiao Hang accompanied Ye Chen and directed Black Hawk and the others to search every courtyard of the Duke's Mansion. They only returned to Qiuchen Courtyard after making sure that no one had escaped.
It was already past midnight when everyone went to bed. Ye Chen hugged Chen Qiu and couldn't sleep. His hands were shaking all night. He expected that the Phoenix Society would be desperate, but he didn't expect that they would go all out and gather all the people hiding in Kyoto to attack his Duke's Mansion.
This is good, I don’t have to dig them out one by one. But Qiu’er almost got hurt. If Qiu’er got hurt, there would be no point in doing all this.
Unconsciously, Ye Chen's arms around Chen Qiu tightened. In her sleep, Chen Qiu felt someone strangling her body. She opened her eyes and felt Ye Chen's face pressed tightly against hers, with water flowing on her face.
Chen Qiu reached out and hugged Ye Chen. Chen Qiu knew that Ye Chen was scared, so she just hugged him without saying a word and fell asleep again after a while.
The next day, Ye Chen had the corpses sent to the charity cemetery outside the city. Although these people were criminals, they were also citizens of the Great Yin Kingdom. However, Ye Chen forgot that even if only a skeleton was left of these people, no one would come to claim them.
Afterwards, Ye Chen entered the palace, and the emperor was also frightened. These people were really rampant.
Ye Chen said: "Uncle, I need some Black Cloud Guards from you. My secret guards are not competent enough. I have to protect the Ye Mansion, otherwise I can't do anything with peace of mind."
The emperor nodded in understanding, then said, "Ask Black Hawk to transfer fifty men to you. You should have someone to protect you when you go out. Now that the Kyoto Phoenix Order is almost over, that matter should be put on the agenda!"
Ye Chen was silent in thought. Some people had rebellious intentions, and it was the right time to take advantage of the opportunity to eradicate the Order of the Phoenix and force him to take action.
