Chapter 37
What happened in the front yard is unknown to the back yard.

After a lot of tossing, Qi Tanying's high fever subsided a little. Although she still didn't have much strength, her spirit was much better.

After Xiang Tinglan learned about their current situation, she began to think about how to escape.

Seeing her girl frowning and thinking, Ting Lan regretted so much, she shouldn't have taken her to the clinic without authorization, otherwise she wouldn't have ended up in such a situation.

Now I can only pray in my heart, hoping my uncle can come to save them soon.

Qi Tanying doesn't like to pin all her hopes on others, she is not someone who just sits and waits to die.

Perhaps to prevent them from escaping, the windows in the room were locked, and there were two women with round waists and thick arms guarding the door, who would come in every quarter of an hour to have a look.

Qi Tanying beckoned Ting Lan to her face, and whispered a few words to her, Ting Lan showed a hesitant expression after hearing this.

"Is this really possible?"

Qi Tanying urged her to go quickly, but Ting Lan had no choice but to do so.

After making mental preparations, Ting Lan walked to the door and said loudly to the two wives guarding the door: "My girl wants to take a bath, you go and prepare water."

The women were eating melon seeds and gossiping, when they heard the words, they stopped eating melon seeds, looked at each other, and one of them suddenly threw the melon seeds on the ground, "Yo ho, this little hoof is actually rousing people!" .”

She spit into the room, "Look, this one hasn't climbed onto the second master's bed yet, it's just here to play the role of master."

These words were obviously meant for Qi Tanying, and Ting Lan was very annoyed when she heard this, and was about to reason with her.Suddenly, she heard Qi Tanying in the room calling herself.

Ting Lan held back her anger, she couldn't ruin the girl's plan.

She untied the pouch on her body, stuffed it into the woman's hand, and said kindly: "My girl has a fever and is sweating a little, and her body is sticky, please ask mom to get a bucket of water."

The woman weighed the purse, seeing that it was not light, a greedy smile appeared on her face.She said to her companion who had been silent all this time: "You look at them first, I will come as soon as I go."

Just as her companion was about to ask why, Ting Lan tugged at her sleeve and said in a low voice, "Mom, don't worry, I still have good things here."

The mother-in-law looked at her suspiciously, only to see Ting Lan took out a jade hairpin and stuffed it into her hand, "Mom, my girl is a little hungry, please ask mom to find something to eat for her."

The mother-in-law took a closer look at the jade hairpin, and saw that it was all white and exquisitely crafted, and it seemed to be a good thing.

She said: "I'll get you some food, you two stay in the room for me honestly."

Before leaving, she warned Ting Lan: "Don't try to escape, there are guards everywhere in this mansion, if you are caught, the second master will not be able to protect you."

Ting Lan nodded repeatedly.

After the women had left, Ting Lan quickly entered the house.

At this time Qi Tanying had already got under the bed, seeing Ting Lan coming in, she quickly moved to the side to make room for her.

The master and servant lay motionless on their stomachs, nervously watching the movement outside.About a quarter of an hour later, there was a knock on the door outside, "The water you asked for is here."

It was the voice of the woman who scolded people earlier.

The room was silent, no one answered.The old woman muttered a few words, then stepped into the inner room with a fat body.There was no one in the inner room, so she went to the clean room again, and took a look with her head, but there was still no one.

"Where did this person go?" She couldn't help muttering.

At this time, the other woman also came back, saw the door was open, and walked in with food, just in time to meet the scolding woman.

After seeing the tray in her hand, the cursing mother-in-law instantly realized that the two of them had been deceived.

She glared at her companion with hatred, and ran out in a hurry, yelling as she ran, "Come here, the concubine brought back by the second master has escaped."

"Kang Dang"

When she heard what she was yelling, the tray in the other woman's hand fell to the ground, and she ran out quickly, not caring about spilling food everywhere.

During this period, Qi Tanying and Ting Lan didn't dare to vent their anger, until they ran away, they quickly got out from under the bed, and then quickly rushed out of the house, running in the opposite direction to the two women.

At this time, it was already dark, and the two of them did not dare to go to the place where the lights were on, so they could only tiptoe to a remote place.It's just that they were not familiar with the layout of the county magistrate's mansion. After walking for a while, they didn't even know where they were, let alone find an exit to escape.

At this moment, the sound of many people's chaotic footsteps suddenly came from ahead, Qi Tanying hurriedly dragged Ting Lan to find a place with a backlight to hide.

When those people got closer and closer to them, Qi Tanying heard a middle-aged man's voice: "We'll be in the backyard soon, sir, don't accidentally hurt my son."

After a few breaths, someone answered him: "As long as my fiancée is fine, he will be fine."

The voice sounded deep and deep, and the familiar feeling made Qi Tanying ecstatic. It was Yan Li's voice, and it was Yan Li who came to save them.

She held Ting Lan's hand tightly, and Ting Lan also looked excited.

Just when they were about to get up, something happened suddenly.

The sound of weapons colliding suddenly sounded around them, scaring the two of them to retreat quickly.

They heard the middle-aged man's voice again, "Little thief Xiao, how dare you trespass into my county magistrate's mansion. Today, I will order you to come in standing up and go out sideways."

Followed by Yan Li's voice, "He is your only son, don't you even care about your son's life?"

After the words fell, the young man begged: "Father, don't provoke him, save me, save me first."

The middle-aged man seemed not to be threatened at all. He laughed a few times and said: "The son is dead and reborn. If you let you go, I will lose my wealth and life. Come here, kill them, and leave no one behind." .”

All of a sudden, countless men in black came out from all directions, and the sound of clashing swords echoed in the surroundings. If you listen carefully, there are also shrill screams mixed in.

Qi Tanying was next to Ting Lan, she understood that at this time, she couldn't go out, and going out would only cause trouble for Yan Li.

After a while, the fighting sound in front became much quieter, and Qi Tanying did not move.After a while, the fighting stopped.

Qi Tanying was worried about Yan Li, so she couldn't help taking a sneak peek.

She saw Yan Li holding a long sword, standing opposite to an old man in brown clothes, she heard Yan Li say: "I said, I came here only to find my fiancée."

The old man in brown clothes, that is, Yang Yiqun, the magistrate of Rongyang County, sneered at the words, "Do you think I will believe your words? Since you are here, then enjoy the great gift I gave you."

After speaking, he clapped his palms, and a dozen archers immediately appeared on the surrounding roofs.Yang Yiqun gave an order, and all the off-string arrows were shot towards Yan Li and the others.

Qi Tanying was so frightened that her face turned pale, her heart was in her throat, her legs were so weak that she could hardly stand up.
