Chapter 414: The Concubine's Sister Travels Through Time VS the First Sister Reborn (20)
The bandit leader had never expected that his group of brothers would actually plot against him in this way.
"When it comes to interests, everyone is the same." Shi Yi dragged him back two steps and whispered, "We can make a deal. You tell me the mastermind behind the scenes, and I will take you back to Kyoto to save your life."
Liu Yanqing, who was following the two closely, heard her daughter's words and felt her heart sink. She actually thought it was an accident.
"If you don't tell me, you won't have a chance." Shi Yi thrust the sharp object in his hand deeper. But she still had a smile on her face, as if she hadn't done such a cruel thing.
"Fourth Prince," he opened his mouth and looked at the person who came.
A sharp arrow shot into his heart.
"Madam Ge, Miss Ge, I'm late." The fourth prince Qi Yanlian threw the bow and arrow in his hand to the ground, and rode his horse to command his men to kill the bandits.
Shi Yi's eyes were fixed on Qi Yanlian, and he did not hide his suspicion of him. Liu Yanqing saw something, covered her eyes, and protected her behind her. In the process of avoiding the fight between the bandits and the soldiers, the two were separated unconsciously.
"Second Miss, be careful." The bandit came towards her with a knife. Liu Yanqing heard the voice of the fourth prince Qi Yanlian reminding his daughter, and hurried to look. Just one look, her heart was scared to death.
"Huh?" Shi Yi, who heard the voice in a trance, looked in the direction of the voice, and saw a sharp blade that was impossible to avoid.
Liu Yanqing almost covered Shi Yi with her whole body to protect her, but was kicked away by someone. She kept screaming and reminding, "Be careful. Get out of the way."
"Second Miss, get out of the way. Quick!" Qi Yanlian caught up with the bandit with a sword, and his speed was only a little slower than the bandit. Liu Yanqing, who was lying on the ground with a slight injury and her daughter's life hanging by a thread, completely pinned her hopes on him.
In fact, Qi Yanlian was also very anxious. He originally just wanted to use this matter to gain merit, and didn't really want to hurt the lives of the Ge family. But the leader of the bandits had been killed by him personally, and the other bandits who were unaware of the situation were fighting desperately. Now, they had to kill all the members of the Ge family to vent their anger. This was really intolerable. He had no choice but to kill them and leave no evidence.
The knife finally stabbed into Shi Yi's body. But it didn't hit the vital part. The bandit knew that he would not live if he hurt the official's wife. After stabbing Shi Yi, he did not dodge or avoid, and let the sword of the fourth prince Qi Yanlian cut his throat.

Shi Yi woke up again and was already in the Ge Mansion in Kyoto.
"Second sister slept for three days and three nights." Ge Yuyi, who was about to get married, saw her open her eyes and began to say sarcastic words, "Second sister may not know that in these three days and three nights, how many people lost their official positions and titles because of you."
"Shut up." Liu Yanqing, who came in with a bowl of medicine, heard her little daughter say this to her elder sister, and her face immediately darkened.
"Mother, you always favor my elder sister." Ge Yuyi stamped her feet and ran out.
She knew that in this family, her position was only slightly better than Ge Mingyi's.
"Mother." Shi Yi struggled to sit up from the bed with a pale face, and the dead skin on her lips had wrinkled again.
"Don't move. Don't move." Liu Yanqing was afraid of every movement she made.
"It's okay. I know my body. I'll be fine after a few days of rest." Shi Yi tried to squeeze out a very faint smile.
"You don't care about your body." Liu Yanqing personally put a pillow under her and began to feed her medicine. Lv Ya, who was standing by, saw that she couldn't help at all, and she was so anxious that she could only cry.
"Dear Lv Ya, don't cry. Bring me some candy. The medicine is too bitter." Shi Yi coaxed her.
"Okay. Miss, wait for me, I'll get it now." Lv Ya saw that she was finally useful, so she burst into tears, wiped her tears, and rushed out.
"Mother, has this matter been investigated clearly?" As soon as Lv Ya left, Shi Yi immediately asked about the progress of the matter.
"The fourth prince has led people to wipe out all the bandits." Liu Yanqing lowered her head and stirred the soup spoon in the bowl.
Shi Yi was silent.
"Drink the medicine." Liu Yanqing blew the medicine in the spoon to cool it and handed it to her daughter's mouth.
After drinking the medicine, Liu Yanqing left, but was greeted by Ge Mingyi again.
"Have you ever thought about the mastermind behind this?" Ge Mingyi asked this as soon as she entered the door.
She is now tied to the same boat with the second prince, so naturally she has to consider everything for him. In this matter, she has found direct evidence related to the fourth prince, and is just waiting for someone to come out and identify the fourth prince.
Shi Yi glanced at her lightly and said softly: "Go back."
"Are you really not curious about the mastermind behind this? You have to understand that what you and your mother suffered this time was not an unknown disaster, but someone's careful design." Ge Mingyi still insisted.
"Go back." Shi Yi turned his back to the wall, obviously not wanting to continue communicating with her.
"I will marry into the Second Prince's mansion next month. Although I cannot guarantee that I will not deal with the Ge family, as long as you do not oppose me, I also promise that I will not cause you any trouble." Ge Mingyi reached out and tucked the quilt for her. For some reason, Ge Mingyi always felt that her second sister was not as simple as she appeared. But her second sister gave people the impression of being so harmless. The contradictory yet vigilant sixth sense made her more afraid of her second sister.
"Go back, elder sister. I will not interfere in the affairs of you and the third sister." The coldness in Shi Yi's words frightened Ge Mingyi.
Ge Mingyi couldn't understand why her second sister had changed into a different person just because of a bandit rebellion.
"Miss, I'm back. There is no honey, but I found a jar of candied fruit." Lu Ya ran in with a jar of candied fruit and bumped into Ge Mingyi. Ge Mingyi glared at her, and she shrank back in fear.
"Think about it, second sister. Don't reject me too quickly. I will wait for you. I, your elder sister, have always been your support." Ge Mingyi glanced at Lu Ya with contempt and stepped out of the door.
"Lu Ya, did anything happen during the days I was asleep?" Shi Yi asked.
"The young lady had nightmares every night these days. She woke up and fell asleep again. Lu Ya was really worried." Lu Ya ran to Shi Yi with the candied fruit jar, forgetting all the unhappiness that the eldest sister Ge Mingyi had given her before.
"Has anyone special come here?" Shi Yi turned around and looked at her expectantly.
Lu Ya thought carefully for a while and said with certainty: "Besides the master, the mistress, the third young lady and the eldest young lady, there is no one else in the mansion."
"Oh." The light in Shi Yi's eyes dimmed, and she felt sorry for the person lying on the beam.
