Chapter 111 Don't Make a Sound
Shangguan Yao came back to her senses when she heard Bi Huan's voice and hurried forward to grab Bi Huan.
"Don't make a sound!" Shangguan Yao grabbed Bi Huan's arm and saw Qin Junchen's body fall forward to the ground. She began to feel scared and warned again: "Don't make a sound!"
When Bi Huan saw Shangguan Yao looking at her, a cold smile appeared on the corner of her lips. She pushed Shangguan Yao away and quickly walked to the door: "Someone come! Someone's been murdered!"
At this time, people from the private room next door and those passing by walked into the house.
Bi Huan burst into tears: "Murder, murder!"
Shangguan Yao looked at the people rushing in with a pale face.
Shangguan Jing's gaze was still on Qin Junchen who was lying on the ground.
"Please, some kindhearted person, please help me get a doctor." Bi Huan cried and hurried to Qin Junchen's side. She held Qin Junchen's head and said, "Sir, Sir?"
Qin Junchen regained some consciousness after being shaken by Bi Huan. He said weakly, "Take me back, take me back."
Bi Huan seemed not to have heard Qin Junchen's words. She choked up and said, "These two siblings have no good intentions. They invited me here, grabbed my neck without asking any questions, and started to attack me without saying a word. They even wanted to kill me."
Shangguan Yao listened to the increasing discussion around her and shook her head, saying, "No, that's not the case."
She didn't know what would happen next, but she knew that if her brother's identity was revealed, they would not have a good ending.
"Make way, make way!" A man's voice came from the corridor: "Master Qi from Kaifeng Prefecture is here, everyone make way."
As the words Kaifeng Prefecture appeared, those standing at the door made way for it.
Shangguan Yao heard that it was Lord Qi from Kaifeng Prefecture, and her face turned even paler. She retreated to Shangguan Jing's side and said, "Brother, what should we do?"
At this moment, Shangguan Jing was no longer as furious as before. He seemed to be still immersed in the anger he had just felt. He looked at Qi Zhan, who was wearing a black brocade robe, walking in, with his hands clenched into fists.
Shouldn't Qi Zhan be investigating the case at the Duke of Ying's Mansion together with Qin Junyi?
Why are you wearing casual clothes in this Fanlou?
Qi Zhan was accompanied by a young man who looked towards Qin Junchen and said to him, "Master Qi, I'll go over and take a look."
Qi Zhan nodded.
As Liu Wenyang walked towards Qin Junchen, Qi Zhan looked at Shangguan Yao, his expression slightly changed: "What's going on?"
After seeing Liu Wenyang walk up and squat down, Bi Huan met Liu Wenyang's eyes. Then she quickly put Qin Junchen on the ground, walked to Qi Zhan and knelt down, saying, "Sir, it was him. He killed my young master. Please help him."
Perhaps fearing that the onlookers wouldn't know who the young master she was talking about was, Bi Huan added, "This servant's young master is the second young master of the Yongyi Marquis's residence."
When Qi Zhan heard about the Yongyi Marquis Mansion, his eyes almost went dark and his gaze fell on Shangguan Yao again.
He said that when he just walked in, Shangguan Yao looked familiar to him. It turned out that she was Qin Junyi's concubine.
"What's going on?" Qi Zhan said again.
Bi Huan cried and said, "Today, the young master received a letter from the young lady's brother, saying that he was coming here to meet her. The young lady also came with him. Who would have thought that the young master had just walked into the room and hadn't said a few words to the young lady when the young lady's brother rushed in, grabbed the young master's throat, and said some incomprehensible words."
"The young master is already trying his best to prove that what the young lady's brother said has nothing to do with him."
"But the young lady's brother was still aggressive, saying that it was the young master who did it. He became furious and snatched the dagger from the hand of the servant and stabbed the young master."
Bi Huan seemed to have let something slip, and quickly explained, "The dagger was originally in my hand because I wanted the young lady's brother to release the young master."
"Did he say something incomprehensible?" Qi Zhan really felt that things had been a bit weird at the Yongyi Marquis' Mansion recently. He was slightly angry and asked, "What incomprehensible things did he say?"
"The young lady's brother said..."
"That's right, I did it," Shangguan Jing interrupted Bi Huan. Rather than letting Bi Huan reveal what they had just said, it would be better for him to admit that it was he who did it to Qin Junyi: "The Qin family has been bullying my sister. I was so angry that I attacked Qin Junyi's brother."
Qi Zhan said "Hey" and stared at Shangguan Jing: "He has no respect for the law in front of the people. Come, take him to the Kaifeng prison!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a constable who was also in plain clothes walked forward and took Shangguan Jing away.
"Brother," Shangguan Yao didn't dare to act rashly because there were so many people around. She looked outside the door from time to time, wondering why Qin Junyi hadn't come yet.
Shangguan Jing shook his head slightly when he passed by Shangguan Yao.
Compared to the fact that the Shangguan family was discovered to be still alive, his imprisonment was nothing.
What's more, once Qin Junyi and the prince find out, they will definitely rescue him from prison.
Shangguan Jing had just observed Qin Junchen's injuries. They should have only injured the bones and flesh, and would not be fatal. With the status of the Yongyi Marquis Mansion, it would not be a problem to find a doctor who could treat Qin Junchen.
When Shangguan Jing passed by Qi Zhan, something seemed to flash through his mind.
When he came to Fanlou, he received the news from the person who was watching Xie Lin, and it was Xie Lin who informed Qi Zhan of Kaifeng Prefecture of the news.
If I really told Qi Zhan, why would Qi Zhan be so indifferent?
Thinking back to Qin Junchen's surprised words just now, "I came here to find you?"
At this moment, Shangguan Jing realized that he had fallen into someone's trap.
Shangguan Yao watched Shangguan Jing being taken away. The handkerchief in her hand was almost torn to pieces by her, and her forehead was covered with cold sweat.
Liu Wenyang stood up and walked to Qi Zhan's side, saying, "He's dead."
"Dead!" Qi Zhan exclaimed. He suppressed his inner wonderment and looked at the people behind him who were whispering to each other. He said, "Let's all go away. Let's all go away."
Why have I been so upset lately?
What kind of evil spirit has been provoked by the Yongyi Marquis' Mansion?
As Qi Zhan finished speaking, the spectators began to leave the room one after another.
The young man standing on the corridor watched the people dispersing until a man in guard uniform came out of the room and walked up to him.
He whispered, "My Lord, something happened to the second son of the Yongyi Marquis's Mansion. The one who did it was Qin Junyi's wife's brother."
