Chapter 197 Ye Chutang Meets Qi Qingyu
Because the guard had a beard, it took Ye Chutang more than an incense stick of time.
But the three of them cooperated well and successfully completed the disguise.
Ye Chutang looked at the "guards" in the bronze mirror with satisfaction, then stood up and walked to Qi Yanzhou and Han Chong's men.
The former was so shocked that he forgot the words, and the latter was so shocked that his eyes widened.
They are also people who have seen the world. Although people with disguises are not common, they have seen some.
But upon closer inspection, there is no difference between the person being disguised. This is definitely the first time I have seen such a person.
Ye Chutang said impatiently in a guard's voice: "I don't know anything. I should leave."
After saying that, she stripped off the guard's inner clothes and put them on together with his outer clothes.
The guard was thin, and after she put on two pieces of clothing, they fit him perfectly.
Qi Yanzhou came back to his senses and said to Han Cong's men, "Sir, please go and find out about the fire at the post station."
"Don't worry, Mr. Qi. No matter where we stop, we will ensure the safety of the Qi family."
While the two were talking, Ye Chutang packed up the bag containing the medicine.
He secretly put the things he had taken out of the space back.
And added height-increasing pads to the shoes.
At this moment, she is no different from a guard.
Qi Yanzhou looked at Ye Chutang's back as he left with the empty tray, his eyes filled with worry.
Han Chong's men followed Ye Chutang out of the yard and called her.
"We are a little thirsty too. Go get a bucket of cool water."
He was not ordering Ye Chutang around, but giving her an excuse to cover up.
After all, she had no idea what a guard was like or what his job was.
If she met an acquaintance of the guard and asked to greet her, she could use the excuse of being busy fetching water as an excuse to avoid the conversation.
The time going back and forth is just enough to adapt to the new identity.
In fact, Ye Chutang did not need the help of the National Protection Army.
She had already thought of a way to deal with it.
"Okay, please wait a moment, sir."
After saying that, she went to the kitchen of the prefectural government with ease.
The reason why Ye Chutang was so familiar with the layout of the prefectural government was that she had memorized the maps of the prefectures and counties and government offices that she needed to report to in her mind.
If she was unprepared, she would not disguise herself and act rashly.
There was a well in the back kitchen. When she was fetching water, she slipped on purpose and hit her head when she fell.
Before pretending to faint, she gave instructions to the people around her.
"Send a bucket of water to the adults guarding Qingya Courtyard..."
Before he could finish his words, he closed his eyes and passed out.
"Yin Fei, what's wrong with you?"
"There's such a big bump on his head, he must have fainted from the impact."
"This kid is still so impetuous in doing things. He can't even draw a bucket of water properly."
"You send him to rest, I will go and deliver water to those adults in the capital."
Soon, Ye Chutang was helped up and carried on his shoulders.
She immediately tensed her body to avoid being perceived as too soft and feminine.
"Why is Yin Fei so light? If you don't know, you would think the prefect didn't give him food!"
"He has lost his appetite recently because of the girl, so he has lost weight."
"Isn't this kid afraid that the tigress at home will find out and skin him alive?"
Amidst the teasing, Ye Chutang was thrown to the back seat in the front yard.
The back seat is where the guards rest when they are on duty in the prefectural government.
Each room has a dormitory and can accommodate twenty people.
The ventilation in the room is not very good, and it is summer, so the smell of sweat is strong.
Ye Chutang was almost vomiting from the fumes.
She held back her anger, and her face became even paler.
"You're seriously injured. Don't fall like a fool."
The guard who brought Yin Fei back found some trauma medicine and applied it on his swollen forehead.
After applying the medicine, he closed the door and left.
Ye Chutang woke up immediately and went underground to the vicinity of Chen's family, the Tongpan of Liangzhou.
She did not enter the Chen family, but hung the black jade pendant representing Qi Yanzhou around her waist and walked around casually.
Soon, Nan Xiao appeared in front of Ye Chutang.
His face was disguised, but his figure remained the same.
Ye Chutang recognized him immediately and said in his original voice, "Let's find a place nearby to talk."
Nan Xiao didn't expect that the person in front of him was Ye Chutang.
After a moment of silence, he quickly said, "Madam, this way please."
There is a noodle shop near Chen's house.
When Qi Qingyu married Chen Shaoping, Qi Yanzhou was worried that his elder sister would not have a good life in the Chen family, so he secretly sent someone to buy the noodle shop and secretly gather information.
For three years, all he received was news that his eldest sister was very favored.
For Qi Qingyu, Chen Shaoping not only refused to take a concubine, but also sent away his maid.
Therefore, Qi Yanzhou never thought that he would pass through Liangzhou City during his exile but fail to see his elder sister.
Nan Xiao took Ye Chutang to the backyard of the noodle shop.
"Madam, this noodle shop is owned by the young master, so it's convenient for us to talk."
Ye Chutang was in a hurry and asked bluntly, "Why didn't Azhou's sister go to see her parents?"
Nan Xiao had been secretly protecting the Qi family and arrived in Liangzhou City only half an hour earlier than the exiled team.
When he found that Qi Qingyu did not appear at the city gate, he guessed that something had happened.
He immediately went to the noodle shop to inquire, but didn't know much.
"Madam, before the exile team entered Liangzhou City, there was nothing unusual in the Chen family. The eldest daughter went out in the morning to buy cakes that the master and the lady liked to eat, but she went back to the Chen family after buying things and never came out again. In addition, the Chen family closed the door to visitors today."
The Chen family is now like an iron barrel.
The flies outside can't fly in, and the flies inside can't fly out.
So he tried every possible way, but couldn't find out any information.
Ye Chutang understood.
The Chen family launched the attack suddenly.
I think that after seeing the emperor's secret order to destroy the Qi family, Chen Tongpan chose to use Qi Qingyu to deal with the Qi family.
"Did Ah Zhou plant someone in the Chen family who could protect Qi Qingyu?"
Nan Xiao nodded.
"Yes, if the young lady is in danger, they will do their best to rescue her."
The only problem now is that we don’t know what happened to the Chen family.
Ye Chutang asked, "Are you sure that Azhou's people can rescue Qi Qingyu?"
She had to know the strength of the Chen family's accomplices before she could make a plan.
Nan Xiao said with certainty, "Sure!"
"There should be people from Azhou in the prefectural government, right? Did they pass on any inside information?"
"Cao Liang is Lord De's man, and he is very cautious. The people Lord De has planted are all on the periphery, so it is difficult for them to get confidential information."
After Nan Xiao finished speaking, he asked worriedly, "Madam, are you all right in the prefectural government?"
Ye Chutang knew that Nan Xiao was reliable, so he told him about his guess of the "substitute plan".
Nan Xiao was horrified when he heard this.
"Fortunately, Madam saw through the prefect's plan, otherwise the Qi family would never have been able to recover!"
After saying that, he handed Ye Chutang a signal cigarette.
"Madam, if you encounter danger in the prefectural government, light the signal smoke and I will lead people to rush in immediately."
Just in case, Ye Chutang did not refuse and accepted the signal cigarette.
"Wait here, I'm going to Chen's house."
Nan Xiao immediately stopped Ye Chutang.
"Madam, the Chen family is now impregnable. You can't get in."
Even if he used the identity of the prefectural guard, it would be useless.
"I have a way to get in."
After Ye Chutang finished speaking, he quickly left the noodle shop.
She walked to a deserted place and sneaked into the Chen family's house underground.
Although she was not clear about the Chen family's layout, she could use her special powers to sense where the most people were.
The place with the most people is where Qi Qingyu is imprisoned.
Ye Chutang found a big tree and stuck his head out.
The yard and the roof were full of people.
The door to the main room was closed and angry voices were heard.
"Qi Qingyu, you only have two choices now. Either you take your two children and die with the Qi family, or you help the emperor get rid of the Qi family and find a future for your two children!"
"Don't think you don't have to make a choice if you don't speak. I'll give you another quarter of an hour. If you still don't let go, I'll chop off Chen Ge'er's right hand!"
"Don't think I'm trying to scare you. I have many sons and grandchildren. It doesn't matter if one or two die!"
Ye Chutang heard that the person threatening Qi Qingyu was Chen Weiming, the magistrate of Liangzhou.
He is also the patriarch of the Chen family and Qi Qingyu's father-in-law.
Soon, an old man with an angry face walked out of the main house.
He warned the guards outside, "Don't let anyone get close to here!"
"Yes, sir."
Ye Chutang heard from Chen Weiming's voice that Qi Qingyu was locked in the side room on the right.
She immediately went underground to the side room and found the location of the bed based on the load-bearing capacity.
The floor under the bed was lifted up by the soil and moved aside.
Ye Chutang looked out through the gap under the bed and saw several feet.
In other words, besides Qi Qingyu, there are other people in the concubine room.
She lit up a highly concentrated smoke, knocking everyone out.
When the sound of falling stopped, she put out the smoke and came out from under the floor.
Five people were lying in a mess beside the table.
Judging from their clothes, one of them was Qi Qingyu and the other four were maids guarding her.
Ye Chutang covered Qi Qingyu's mouth and let her smell the stinky antidote.
Qi Qingyu woke up quickly.
She saw a strange man in the room and her eyes widened in fear.
But she did not want to escape or scream as Ye Chutang expected.
Because she knew her situation couldn't be any worse.
Seeing that Qi Qingyu quickly calmed down, Ye Chutang immediately let go and introduced himself.
"My name is Ye Chutang, and I'm Qi Yanzhou's wife."
Qi Qingyu listened to the soft female voice and looked at the plain-looking man, feeling a little confused.
"It's a disguise. I don't have much time, so I have to make it short."
After saying that, Ye Chutang took out the black jade card.
When Qi Qingyu saw it, he immediately took it in his hand and examined it.
After confirming that the black jade card was genuine, she believed the "man" in front of her.
She asked, "Sister-in-law, how did you get in amidst all the guards?"
"Aunt, time is running out, let's not talk about unimportant topics."
"Okay, Dad, Mom, and brother, are you okay?"
"It's fine for now. What do the Chen family want to do by locking you up and threatening you with the child?"
Qi Qingyu's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
"Let me identify my family members and frame them as fugitives!"
Even if she had to die with her two children, she would never do such a beastly thing!
Ye Chutang understood.
The disguise artist hired by the prefecture was not very skilled and could not withstand a careful scrutiny.
When the Qi family's substitute escapes from the prefectural government, he will immediately flee into the crowd so that the people can see him.
The people of Liangzhou City are not familiar with the Qi family, so it is not difficult for a substitute to get away with it.
But the people are not fools. They know very well that even if the Qi family wants to escape, they will not choose to escape to the heavily guarded prefectural government.
When something is out of the ordinary, there must be something wrong. They will suspect whether the person who escaped is really a member of the Qi family.
If at this time, Qi Qingyu stood up and told everyone that the ones who escaped were her relatives.
This will confirm the fact that the Qi family are fugitives!
Cao Liang can also use this reason to openly help the dog emperor destroy the Qi family!
