The Qin family's shopkeeper was startled when he saw Li Jianmin, who was pale and in a state of panic. He hurried forward to support him and said, "Young man, what happened? Come in and talk!"
Li Jianmin grabbed Shopkeeper Qin's hand and asked anxiously, "Is Master Qin here? This concerns my sister's safety. Please, Shopkeeper, help me notify Master Qin! I have something important to discuss with him!"
Shopkeeper Qin was startled by Li Jianmin's cold hand, and when he heard that it was about Miss Li, he dared not neglect it and immediately ordered his servants to go to the mansion to look for her.
After the waiter left, Shopkeeper Qin explained to Li Jianmin, "It snowed all night last night, so the young master isn't in the restaurant right now. Brother Li, please come with me to the side room to wash up and wait for a while!"
Li Jianmin did not refuse. He had already spent a night in fear, and then he had tried his best to escape from the predicament, and then he had walked for a long time on an empty stomach. At this time, he was actually at the end of his strength, and he had only relied on his willpower to hold on until now!
Perhaps it was because he had suddenly arrived in a warm place, or perhaps it was because the breath he had been holding along the way finally let out, he found that his legs seemed to weigh a thousand pounds and he could no longer move an step!
Just as he raised his foot to step onto the stairs, his foot suddenly went weak and he instantly squatted down. Fortunately, the shopkeeper Qin beside him was supporting him, so he didn't fall to the ground!
Li Jianmin gave a bitter smile, "I...my legs suddenly lost their strength!"
Shopkeeper Qin knew that he was very cold, so he quickly called the waiter to help him to the side room.
Then I boiled some hot water and got him some clean clothes to change into!
Just as I finished cleaning up here, I heard hurried footsteps coming from the stairwell over there, and the door was opened from the outside in a few moments!
Qin Yue stared at Li Jianmin with eyes as sharp as torches, and asked anxiously, "What happened to Miss Li?"
The moment Li Jianmin saw Qin Yue, his tense emotions could no longer be controlled. "Mr. Qin, please save my sister!" After saying that, he knelt down for a long time!
There was no need for any extra words. All the servants in the room tactfully left the room, and soon there were only two people left in the room!
Qin Yue helped him sit down at the table. "What happened? Tell me in detail!"
After a cup of tea,
Qin Yue clenched his hands at his sides into fists. From Li Jianmin's narration, he understood that these people were coming for him.
It turned out that the person he had not been able to find these days had already secretly changed his target.
A surge of anger suddenly surged in his heart. He was the one who implicated Li Yan!
He tried his best to suppress his surging emotions, calmed himself down, and asked, "You said these people are not Han Chinese?"
Li Jianmin nodded, "They said you can go to Gaoyun County alone!"
Qin Yue instantly searched for the location of Gaoyun County in his mind. It was located on the northwest border, adjacent to Suzhou City on the west!
As for the person who was spying on him, Qin Yue guessed that it was the crown prince or the second prince, but he never thought that it was the Hu people who wanted to deal with him!
Yes, he was careless. His father had been stationed at the border for so many years. The Hu people must have hated his father very much, but they could do nothing about him.
My father has been guarding the northwest border for so many years, and the barbarians have never gained any benefit!
Now that the trade route has been reopened, it has given these people an opportunity to take advantage of it!
They knew they couldn't deal with my father, so they wanted to use me to threaten him!
The more Qin Yue thought about it, the more he felt that he had neglected it. If he had considered these things earlier, would the outcome have been different?
Time was running out, and this was not the time to regret. He immediately stood up and said to Li Jianmin, "Don't worry, this matter is caused by me. I will go and rescue Miss Li right away!"
The other party simply wanted to use his own life to threaten his father so that he would be afraid to take action.
At this moment, Qin Yue thought that he was just a worthless life. At worst, he would lose it, and it wouldn't matter if he was one less person in the world!
He planned to exchange his life for Li Yan's life. She had a friendly family, relatives, and neighbors. If she was gone, how many people would be sad for her.
But he was different. No one cared about him in the first place. The worst result was losing his life. This matter was caused by him, and he would never let anyone hurt Li Yan!
Qin Yue, having made up his mind, opened the door of the wing room and walked down the stairs. In front of the stairs, someone blocked his way!
Qin Yue looked at the middle-aged man dressed as a scholar standing in front of him. He squirmed for a long time before saying, "It's me... I'm sorry!"
"Young Master Qin, now is not the time to discuss right and wrong. I came here to go to Gaoyun County with you. Please allow me to accompany you!"
After Li Erlang learned from Daya that his daughter had been kidnapped by criminals, he rushed over without stopping. It was impossible for him to wait for news at home indifferently. The person who was kidnapped was his daughter, and he couldn't just sit there and wait!
Qin Yue couldn't refuse his father's pleading gaze, so he finally nodded!
"Uncle Li, please wait a moment here. I will come to meet you after a cup of tea!" After saying that, he hurried to the general's mansion!
After returning to his mansion, Qin Yue wrote a letter to his father.
"Father:
"When you read this letter, my son has already arrived at the border. It is probably because of my son that County Lady Li was captured by the barbarians!
"The Hu people wanted me to go to Gaoyun County alone, and I dared not disobey them because County Lady Li is the woman I admire, and because of my negligence, she is in imminent danger.
"I know that my father always puts national affairs first, and I also know that this is your responsibility. Therefore, I dare not tell you about this matter. This is because that woman is the person I cherish most in my heart, and I dare not gamble with her life!
"I am willing to go alone and do my best to rescue her. I know the road ahead is dangerous and there is a high risk of death, but I cannot bear to watch the one I love imprisoned and remain indifferent. If I can return safely, I will then apologize to my father. If I cannot succeed, I am willing to risk my life to ensure her safety.
"yours truly
"Unfilial son!"
Qin Yue stuffed the letter in his pocket and handed it to Cen Bo. After pondering for a while, he said, "I have to go out on an urgent matter. Please give this letter to father in a month!"
He thought that the matter would be resolved in a month. If he could come back, he would take the letter away then. If he couldn't come back, it would not be his concern!
