Chapter 200 Qi Yanzhou was surrounded and killed
There are two secret rooms in the prefectural government.
One was under the study, and the other was in the deepest part of the prison.
Cao Liang’s secret room was naturally not as indestructible as the Dog Emperor’s secret room, and it was easily opened with supernatural powers.
"Ding-ling-ling... Ding-ling-ling..."
The sound of a crisp bell was heard, indicating that someone had broken into the secret room.
Yuan Ting's face changed slightly when he heard the familiar voice.
He walked quickly to the innermost part of the study, looked at the neatly arranged bookshelves, and frowned.
Someone dug a tunnel into the secret room!
He knew that the things in the secret room were very important to Cao Liang, so he quickly shouted, "Someone come!"
The twenty people staring at Ye Chutang did not move.
A guard walked in from outside the study and quickly came to Yuan Ting.
"What do you want, Master Yuan?"
Yuan Ting listened to the endless ringing of bells and waved to the guards.
When the guards approached, he whispered, "Go and inform Lord Cao that someone has entered the secret room. Go quickly!"
When Cao Liang rushed over, Ye Chutang had already emptied the secret room.
She used her earth-related abilities to build a secret passage leading to the Chen family's home.
And the last ten feet of distance was blocked with earth.
It can not only make Cao Liang suspicious of the Chen family, but also delay time, killing two birds with one stone.
Cao Liang looked at the empty secret room, his eyes fixed on the secret passage, and he cursed angrily.
"Yuan Ting, send someone to chase him!"
"I obey your orders."
When Cao Liang came out of the secret room, he was full of anger.
He left without even looking at Ye Chutang lying on the ground.
Because of the news from the Chen family, Qi Qingyu chose to betray the Qi family for the sake of her child.
His plan can be implemented!
Cao Liang went to the lounge behind the court.
He would occasionally work and rest here, and the four walls were covered with round openings of copper pipes.
There are many yamen runners here who are carrying out the task of monitoring.
In addition to the exile team that had just arrived at the prefectural government, all the prisoners in the prison were monitored.
Of course, these copper tubes have another use – to convey instructions!
Cao Liang walked to the copper pipe that had just been purchased two days ago and said to Yuankou, "Poison Qingyayuan and take away Qi Wenyue and his wife."
He never relies on others for success or failure.
Just like he said to Han Chong, even without Ye Chutang's cooperation, he could still take down the Qi family.
Therefore, Ye Chutang's poisoning of the Qi family was just a test for him.
Qingya Courtyard.
Qi Yanzhou has been waiting for Cao Liang to take action.
He noticed it immediately when white smoke came out of the copper pipe.
Then, according to Ye Chutang's instructions, he immediately reminded everyone.
"Everyone, come out! There's poisonous gas in the room!"
As he spoke, he immediately moved out of the side room and went to the main room of the two elders.
Then they found that they were missing!
Qi Yanzhou immediately lifted the bed board and jumped into the dark secret passage.
He knew that the journey was dangerous and there was a high possibility of an ambush, but he could not ignore his parents' lives.
As a result, they didn't walk far before the secret passage was blocked by soil.
"Dad! Mom!"
The deafening shout received no response.
Qi Yanzhou frowned and exited the secret passage.
As soon as his head emerged from the secret passage, a sharp sword stabbed at him.
The sword was glowing green, and it was obvious that it was smeared with a deadly poison that could seal the wound when it bleeds.
He did not withdraw his head.
Because, as long as he took a step back, more swords would stab at him, making his situation even worse.
He picked up a handful of dirt and used his internal force to blow it away.
The mud turned into a sharp blade and hit the incoming sword, making a clanging sound.
The sword was deflected and stabbed back at Qi Yanzhou's neck.
The masked man holding the sword gripped the hilt tightly and cut horizontally.
Qi Yanzhou grabbed his wrist first and crushed his bones with force.
The poisoned sword flew out of his hand and fell down.
Qi Yanzhou flicked the tip of the sword with his finger.
The poison sword flipped.
He quickly grasped the hilt of the sword and stabbed the man through the heart.
Then he slapped him on the shoulder.
The man flew backwards and hit his companion who had no time to dodge.
After getting a short respite, Qi Yanzhou wielded his sword, forced back the people who came to kill him, and quickly came out of the secret passage.
When Cao Liang's men saw that Qi Yanzhou showed no signs of poisoning, their faces changed slightly.
Ye Chutang deceived the prefect!
Qi Yanzhou saw that Cao Liang's men were suspicious, and his legs immediately went weak.
Cao Liang's plan has not been implemented yet, so he cannot be exposed, otherwise there will be no way to counter the enemy's plan.
He pressed his sword to the ground, his face terribly gloomy and revealing an almost imperceptible weakness.
"When did you poison me?"
Cao Liang's men did not answer Qi Yanzhou, but approached him quickly, trying to kill him while he was sick!
Someone shouted outside: "What are you waiting for? It's your turn to take action!"
The National Protection Army guarding outside the yard were worried that they had no chance to help the Qi family, so they rushed in immediately.
Apart from Qi Yanzhou, only Old Man Qi has better martial arts skills in the Qi family.
Qi Yun'an knows a little bit of fancy moves.
Therefore, the National Protection Army did not need to take any action at all to control the Qi family.
Qi Hean struggled and cursed.
"You bastards, you are in cahoots with the prefect, you shall not die a good death!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a member of the National Protection Army slashed at the back of his neck with a knife.
Aunt Xu hurriedly supported her fainted son, her face pale with fear.
"You...what on earth do you want to do?"
The National Defense Army sneered, "Can't you see that? The emperor wants to keep the entire Qi family in Liangzhou City!"
Aunt Su laughed out loud when she heard this.
Everyone looked at her like she was crazy.
Aunt Su said proudly: "I am the emperor's spy planted in the Qi family. If the Qi family is finished, I won't have to go into exile and will be free!"
Aunt Xu's eyes changed from looking at a madman to looking at a fool.
It is simply a pipe dream for a person who is of no use to the emperor to want freedom!
Aunt Su, however, did not have this awareness. She held Qi Jingyao's hand and smiled happily.
"Yao'er, we will be able to return to the capital soon and live a good life."
After saying that, she looked at the National Defense Army beside her.
"I……"
As soon as she opened her mouth, she was questioned: "You said you are the emperor's man, how do you prove it?"
Aunt Su spilled the beans, telling everything about her previous surveillance of the Qi family and her message to the emperor.
"Words are not enough, I want evidence!"
If Aunt Su has evidence, she can use it to overthrow the imperial power in the future.
Aunt Su was speechless.
All along, she was the one who wrote letters and gave them to the maid, who then passed the messages to the emperor.
If the emperor wanted her to do something, it was the maid who conveyed it.
She had no handwritten letter or token from the emperor.
The rewards that the emperor secretly gave her were all taken away when her house was searched.
In other words, she couldn't prove that she was the emperor's person!
When the National Protection Army saw that Aunt Su could not produce any evidence, they put their swords across her neck.
"The Emperor's original words were, not a single member of the Qi family will be left alive!"
Aunt Su understood that from the beginning to the end, the emperor had no intention of letting her live!
Because she is the evidence of the emperor's plot against the Qi family!
She took a step back and slumped to the ground with a deathly pale face.
"I regret it. I shouldn't have helped the emperor frame the Qi family for treason. The reason those weapons were transported into Tangzhou Courtyard was because the emperor's men were among those who inspected the dowry!"
After the Qi family got into trouble, she wanted to get a divorce and leave.
In order to continue to use her and squeeze out her last bit of value, the emperor did not agree.
Thinking of this, Aunt Su felt like she was a joke.
She laughed again, a sad laugh.
Except for Qi Jingyao who had no expression on her face, everyone else wanted to cut the traitor Aunt Su into pieces!
The National Protection Army looked at Aunt Su who was full of regret and put away their swords.
Whether to kill or chop is up to Qi Yanzhou!
Thinking of this, he looked towards the main room where the fierce fight was taking place.
The Qi family members also looked over, their eyes filled with worry and fear.
They hope Qi Yanzhou can win.
Because only if he wins or escapes, the Qi family will have a chance of survival!
