Chapter 130 Don’t Think of Peace
Xueqing heard Shangguan Yao's scream and crawled up from the ground in shock.
"Madam, we can't stay here for long. I will take you back to the Marquis' Mansion." Xue Qing stepped forward and supported Shangguan Yao: "I can't leave you here alone."
Shangguan Yao looked at Wen Zi's body in the courtyard, thinking that Qin Junyi had not appeared in the past few days. The desire to see Qin Junyi immediately and to rely on him was instantly extinguished.
"Madam?" Xue Qing saw the fear on Shangguan Yao's face slowly dissipate, and repeated, "Madam, please go back to the Marquis' Mansion."
Shangguan Yao did not respond to Xueqing's words, but pushed Xueqing away and walked towards the courtyard.
"Madam," Xueqing's face showed a trace of panic. She followed Shangguan Yao closely. When she was about to say something, she saw Shangguan Yao stop in front of Wen Zi's corpse.
Because he was thrown from the roof, his face was facing the ground.
Shangguan Yao squatted down, turned the corpse over, looked at Wen Zi's bloody face, and a layer of frost appeared in her eyes.
Wen Zi has been making arrangements to deal with Xie Jing these days.
Today was the day when we arranged for the person who would contact Xie Jing to show up, but we didn't expect something like this to happen.
Could it be that he had alarmed the enemy again and was discovered by the Xie family?
So what Wen Zi said about what was planned today, didn’t happen?
"What did Wen Zi say to you when she went out today?" Shangguan Yao asked coldly.
Xue Qing lowered her eyes, not daring to look directly at Wen Zi's bloody face. She said, "She said that today is the last time she will meet with the informant to see if the informant has found out why Xie Jing and his wife parted ways."
Hearing this, Shangguan Yao took a deep breath. She knew Wen Zi's skills.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have been running around with Shangguan Jing all these years.
The person who dumped the body came and disappeared, as he ended up in such a miserable state.
It's just that the other party is provoking her.
After being in Bian Jing for so long, there will be no one else who wants to deal with her except Xie Rongying.
"What time is it?" Shangguan Yao asked.
Xue Qing: "It's almost midnight."
Hearing this, Shangguan Yao stood up and ordered, "Take the money and arrange for Wen Zi to be buried with honor tomorrow morning."
"Yes." Xueqing saw Shangguan Yao regain her composure, and the fear in her heart faded a lot.
Then, under Shangguan Yao's instructions, Xueqing took out cloth from the room and covered the two corpses in the yard.
After everything was settled, Xueqing walked into the house with a pale face.
"You can sleep with me tonight." Shangguan Yao's face showed no emotion, but she felt a little uneasy in her heart.
"yes."
——
The next day.
Before Shangguan Yao woke up, Xueqing had already gone out to arrange for people to dispose of Wen Zi and the man's body.
It was already early morning when we returned to the courtyard.
When I walked into the main room, I saw Shangguan Yao had already finished dressing. Joy flashed in her eyes: "Madam, are you going back to the Marquis' Mansion?"
"Not going back for now." Shangguan Yao stood up and glanced at Xue Qing: "We can't stay here for long, let's go somewhere else."
"Should you tell the young marquis?"
Shangguan Yao thought that Qin Junyi had no time to care about her recently, so she said, "I'll find a chance to tell him after we settle down."
"Where do you want to go, Madam?" Xue Qing then realized that Shangguan Yao had already packed her bags.
Shangguan Yao said, "Go meet the person Wen Zi mentioned who was in contact with Xie Jing."
Hearing this, hesitation flashed across Xueqing's face.
"Ma'am, are you going to that kind of place?"
Shangguan Yao chuckled: "It's come to this, why are we still divided into different levels?"
She just wanted to know whether the woman Wen Zi arranged last night was successful.
"yes."
The brothels and theaters were still fast asleep during the day, and even the alleys and streets next to them were deserted with few passers-by.
Xueqing and Shangguan Yao walked side by side, and their eyes were scanning the left and right sides since they arrived at the street.
"Miss, it's just ahead." Xueqing said, pointing to a quiet and secluded small building at the end of the street.
Shangguan Yao looked in the direction Xueqing pointed, her expression indifferent.
She knew that Wen Zi and Shangguan Jing had made friends with many people in Bian Jing, especially people from all walks of life.
Although she was curious about the person Wen Zi mentioned, she had never thought about contacting him.
After all, this kind of place is not where she should come.
But now the only useful person Shangguan Jing left for her is gone, and she can't just wait for Qin Junyi to appear and take over the current situation.
She wanted to see how far Wen Zi's plan had progressed.
Then think about what to do next.
The master and servant came to the small building. Looking at the three words "Youqinglou" on the plaque, Xueqing walked forward.
He picked up the door knocker and knocked on it.
After a while, there was a sound at the door.
The person who opened the door was a girl of about twelve or thirteen. She poked her head out and looked at the unfamiliar Xue Qing: "Who are you looking for?"
"I'm looking for a charming girl." Xueqing said.
The girl frowned, realizing that there was another woman dressed as a woman behind Xue Qing. She said, "Our girl went to bed very late last night entertaining guests, and she hasn't woken up yet."
"Can we go in and wait?" Shangguan Yao walked forward and asked.
The girl was about to shake her head to refuse.
Shangguan Yao continued, "I'm a friend of your Miss Wen Zi. Something happened to her."
Sure enough, when the girl heard Wen Zi's name, her expression changed. She immediately opened the door and said, "Come in first."
Shangguan Yao and Xueqing walked into the small building and, led by the girl, came to a quiet pavilion in the backyard.
"Please wait a moment, I'll go see if the master has woken up." The girl said and turned around.
Shangguan Yao was still somewhat nervous, as she didn't have many people she could use. Now that her brother had fallen into the hands of King Wei, it was likely to have brought great trouble to her father.
She didn't want to contact her father and didn't want to see his disappointed eyes.
Whether it was her brother's experience or Wen Zi's fate, it was all because of her. If she had arranged for Qin Junyi to return to Longxi with her earlier.
How could this happen?
But now that things have come to this, all she can do is return them one by one!
The Xie family can never live in peace!
As long as Qin Jun uses her supernatural powers to join hands with the prince to rescue her brother from the King of Wei, everything will still be in time.
Even if it is difficult for Qin Junyi to take action against the prince, his father will not stand idly by.
Shangguan Yao had only one goal at this moment, which was to ensure that the situation was under her control by the time her father arrived in Bian Jing.
The sun gradually rose higher and the wind gradually picked up.
After sitting in the pavilion for half an hour, he finally saw the woman slowly approaching from the curved corridor.
Shangguan Yao used all her good temper today. She looked at the woman who walked into the pavilion and stood up.
A woman in white brocade came in and looked at Shangguan Yao. Her eyebrows twitched slightly: "Could it be that you are Master Shangguan's sister?"
