Chapter 747: He is the one who is rebelling, what does it have to do with us?
Ran Qingxuan spoke softly, lowering his eyes.
Gu Yanchen shook her hand and said, "After seeing the letter, the Marquis of Zhenbei should know what to do, right?"
"Aren't you curious about what's in the letter?"
"I can probably guess it!" Gu Yanchen laughed softly.
"You want Uncle Duan to collect evidence of Qi Jing's crimes, and then secretly contact the old officials in the court to prevent Qi Jing from rebelling at any time, right?"
Ran Qingxuan raised his eyebrows: "As expected of General Gu...but you only guessed half right..."
The smile on Gu Yanchen's face froze and his expression became sullen.
"What is that?"
"I won't tell you, you will know it when the time comes!" Ran Qingxuan looked mysterious, but when he turned around, he revealed a complicated look.
After passing through another gate of Silver Moon City, the two rushed towards the capital.
Gu Yanchen calculated: "Qi Jing has a leg disease and can only ride in a carriage. Qu Feng has been taken away for only seven or eight days and has walked at most two or three hundred miles."
The two did not dare to stop and continued on their way. Halfway through, Ran Qingxuan took out the walkie-talkie and began to adjust the frequency.
"We have to try and see if we can get in touch."
Amid the rustling sound of electric current, Ran Qingxuan tapped out a rhythm in Morse code, communicating at a frequency that only the two of them understood.
This way, even if the walkie-talkie is intercepted, others will not be able to understand it.
The time to wait for a response was extremely long, after all, they didn't know where the person had gone.
Two hours later, they had driven more than two hundred miles. Gu Yanchen slowed down the car a little, looked up at the sky, and it was pitch black except for a full moon.
Just at this moment, intermittent electric current sounds came from the walkie-talkie.
Ran Qingxuan's eyes lit up, and he stopped abruptly when he was about to speak.
With a tap of his fingers, he quickly typed out a string of Morse code: "If someone is watching, use the code."
After a moment, Qu Feng's reply came: "Qi Jing's camp is at the post station in Qingfeng Gorge. It is heavily guarded. Be careful!"
"Qu Feng responded! At Qingfeng Gorge Posthouse!"
The voice on the intercom in her hand did not stop, and she quickly decoded it: "Qu Feng said that they set off for Beijing at six in the morning. He is now locked up in a wing on the west side of the post station, and there are heavy soldiers guarding the dark place."
Gu Yanchen immediately stood up: "Let's go, take them away before they leave!"
The two men drove fast again. In the dark night, the off-road vehicle flashed across the official road like a black lightning.
In the westernmost room on the second floor of the inn, the candlelight was dim and Qu Feng was anxiously pressing the intercom in his arms.
He was thinking about something when he suddenly felt a cool breeze on the back of his neck. He turned back subconsciously...
"Oh my god..."
A short scream came out of his throat. He was frightened by the two black shadows that appeared out of nowhere in front of him. His hand on the table accidentally knocked over the brush, splashing a ball of ink.
"It's us, don't make a sound!" Ran Qingxuan took a step forward, pressed his cold hand on his mouth, and forcibly suppressed the rest of his scream.
Qu Feng's eyes, which were originally wide open, relaxed. He just thought Qi Jing was going to send someone to do it...
Seeing him nod, Ran Qingxuan let go.
There was a sound of armor colliding outside the door, and it was obvious that the Black Feather Guards heard the noise.
"Mr. Qu?" The Black Feather Guard's voice was as harsh as a knife scraping against iron.
Gu Yanchen's eyes flashed, and his hand was already on the hilt of the sword, but Ran Qingxuan was faster than him. He grabbed his wrist and looked at Qu Feng.
"Play it by ear!"
The two figures disappeared in the blink of an eye. Seeing this, Qu Feng calmed himself down and straightened his clothes.
The door was suddenly pushed open, and two Black Feather Guards rushed in with knives. The candlelight was shaken violently by the strong wind, casting a hideous shadow on the wall.
"Who were you talking to just now, sir?" The leading Black Feather Guard narrowed his triangular eyes and swept the tip of his knife across the room.
Qu Feng's Adam's apple rolled, and he pretended to be calm as he bent down to pick up the brush, and said with a click of the tongue: "Your master is really amazing, he wanted me to take action and arranged a place like this, which is not up to the standard at all. A fat rat fell here in the middle of the night and almost bit me!"
The younger Black Feather Guard glanced around the room suspiciously and even poked the bed curtains with the tip of his knife.
"Where did the rats come from in this post station?"
Qu Feng's eyes rolled around, and he suddenly pointed to the corner of the wall: "Look, take a good look, if that's not rat droppings, what is that?"
While the Black Feather Guard was distracted, he quietly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with his sleeve.
The older Black Feather Guard had a gloomy face, and his hawk-like eyes wandered over Qu Feng's face.
"The prince has instructed that if Master Qu needs anything, just let him know. If there are rats, we can change the room for him!"
Qu Feng curled his lips in disdain: "Forget it, just make do with it for one night."
The young Black Feather Guard had a sullen face, and suddenly changed the subject: "Everything is fine if we change rooms, but if you play any tricks..."
"Are you threatening me?" Qu Feng crossed his arms, sneered and raised his chin.
"Your master has to provide me with good food and drink, how dare you threaten me?"
The younger Black Feather Guard's expression changed and he lowered his head stiffly.
"Sir, take a rest!"
The older one gave his men a warning glare before turning away.
The moment the door closed, Qu Feng immediately returned to his normal expression. After waiting for about ten minutes, Ran Qingxuan and Gu Yanchen appeared again.
Just as Qu Feng was about to speak, Ran Qingxuan made a gesture to keep quiet and pointed outside the door.
Gu Yanchen understood and tiptoed to the door. His ears moved slightly, and after a moment, he made a "safe" gesture.
"I was almost scared to death by you... Do you know how dangerous it was just now?"
Ran Qingxuan gave a wry smile and grabbed his wrist directly. Qu Feng felt a flash before his eyes and the scene around him was completely different.
After they entered the room, Gu Yanchen took a bottle of water from the refrigerator and handed it to Qu Feng: "Calm down."
Qu Feng took the water, tilted his head back and took a big gulp. He didn't care as the clear water flowed down the corners of his mouth.
"I thought you had forgotten about me..."
"How could that be possible? Your decision is like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth. We came to find you as soon as we found out..."
Ran Qingxuan didn't dare to tell the truth and said it somewhat uncomfortably.
After drinking the water, Qu Feng scratched his head in annoyance. Gu Yanchen patted his shoulder and asked, "How is Qi Jing's injury?"
After saying this, Qu Feng immediately returned to his role as a doctor.
"The legs were burned for more than half and not treated properly. The infection was severe and the adhesions were also quite severe, which affected my walking. The face only needed skin grafting..."
He suddenly paused and looked at the two of them suspiciously: "You are asking this, are you going to save him?"
Ran Qingxuan sneered: "Save him, of course I have to save him, but..."
"Would you like to hear our plan?"
Qu Feng's eyes were full of excitement, and he nodded: "That's a must!"
"We are ready to help Qi Jing to seize the throne!"
"Ah? What?" Qu Feng's expression froze, and he almost thought he had heard it wrong.
"This is treason, have you thought it through?" Qu Feng's voice was tense.
"He is the one who is rebelling. What does it have to do with us?"
After these words were spoken, Qu Feng became even more confused.
