Chapter 38 Choice
Yan Li is in critical condition, and if he is not careful, he will die.

He grabbed Yang Qiao's body and used him as a shield to avoid the arrows.

While slashing his long sword to cut off sharp arrows shooting from all directions, he tried every means to move towards Yang Yiqun.Seeing this, Yang Yiqun quickly asked the archers to focus on attacking Yan Li.

This also caused Yang Qiao's body to be full of arrows, like a hedgehog.

During this process, Yan Li was hit by an arrow in the shoulder, and the strong dull pain caused his arm to lose strength, and he had to throw away Yang Qiao's body.Raising the sword in his hand, he chopped off two-thirds of the arrow, leaving only a short piece in the flesh.

At this time, someone suddenly heard shouting: "It's flooded, it's flooded, come and put out the fire..."

At the same time, there was a burning smell in the air.

The sudden change slowed down the speed of the archers on the eaves for a moment. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Yan Li turned sideways, rolled several times in a row, and smoothly rolled in front of Yang Yiqun.

Yang Yiqun only felt a black shadow flash in front of his eyes, and the next moment, the long sword that used to hang on his son Yang Qiao's neck was now resting on his neck.

He was so frightened that his blood faded away, he shook like a sieve and said: "Your Excellency, you have something to say, something to say." He was completely different from the majestic appearance who commanded the archers to silence him before.

Yan sternly said, "Let them all stop and throw their bows, arrows and weapons on the ground."

Yang Yiqun immediately gave the order, but the archers did not move.

He yelled at them loudly: "Are you rebelling?"

The archers had to throw down their bows and weapons.

Yan Li asked again: "Where is my fiancée?"

Yang Yiqun hurriedly said, "It's in the west wing of the backyard."

Yan Li asked him to lead the way.

Arriving at the west wing room, there was no one in the room, Yan Li pressed the blade down and asked, "Where is the person?"

Yang Yiqun tremblingly said: "Perhaps I misremembered, it should be in the east wing."

So Yan Li escorted him to the East Wing, which was still empty.

Yan Li looked at him with heavy eyes, "Where's the person?"

"I don't know either." Yang Yiqun said with a mournful face: "In the past, the women my son kidnapped were placed in these two places. I really don't know where they went."

"Brother Yan, is she the fiancee you are looking for?"

At this moment, a tall and thin blue figure appeared at the door.After the words fell, the two young women were tied up and pushed out.

It was Qi Tanying and Ting Lan, master and servant.

Yan Li's pupils shrank, "Shen Chao, you really have a problem."

"Where is Gong Yunniang?"

Hearing this, Shen Chao's eyes were a little playful, "Is it too much for Brother Yan to care about other women in front of your fiancée?"

After speaking, he looked at Qi Tanying again, "Miss Qi, look, this is the fiancé you want to save at the risk of your own life, and the first thing he cares about is not you."

Qi Tanying gave him a cold look, "I haven't seen other skills, but I have a skill in sowing discord, how is this different from the gossip women in the market!"

After hearing this, the smile on Shen Chao's face disappeared, "Come here, bring Gong Yunniang up."

After a while, Gong Yunniang was carried in. The white singlet on her body was covered with bloodstains, her face was like gold paper, her eyes were closed tightly, if her chest was not still rising and falling, she might be mistaken for dead.

Shen Chaodao: "This Gong Yunniang has such strong bones that she can withstand the interrogation by the Ministry of Criminal Justice."

As an interrogator, Yan Li naturally knew how cruel the Ministry of Criminal Justice's method of extorting confessions was when interrogating prisoners.Not to mention that Gong Yunniang is still a weak woman with no strength to restrain a chicken. It is God's blessing that she did not die under torture.

With Gong Yunniang's current appearance, it seems that Shen Chao didn't get the location of the secret room from her.

Thinking of this, Yan Li felt relieved.But at the next moment, that guy from Shen Chao actually asked him to make a choice, replacing Yang Yiqun with Gong Yunniang or Qi Tanying as master and servant.

It was a choice between the two, if he chose A Tan, Gong Yunniang would not be able to live.

If he chooses Gong Yunniang, A Tan will fall into Shen Chao's hands.

Yan Li tightened his grip on the sword, and soon he had a choice in his heart.

"I choose mine."

Just when he was about to make a choice, Qi Tanying suddenly shouted first, "Choose Gong Yunniang." She was about to die.

Her words stunned everyone present.In fact, she herself didn't know why she said that.
Shen Chao laughed loudly after hearing this, "I didn't expect Miss Qi to have a side of helping others." After laughing, he glanced at Ting Lan again, "I just don't know if your maidservant has the same heart as you."

Ting Lan immediately said: "I will always support my girl's decision, regardless of life or death, I will be with her." Although she is afraid of pain and death, she still firmly expresses her supportive attitude.

Shen Chao suddenly changed his face.

What a pair of master and servant who are not afraid of death.

He snatched the long sword from the guard at the side, put the tip of the sword against Qi Tanying's neck, and looked at Yan Li provocatively, "Master Yan, it depends on your choice!"

Yan Li naturally knew how to choose, and he had firmly chosen Qi Tanying from the very beginning.

Just when he was about to say his choice again, he was taken a step ahead.

"Choose Gong Yunniang." This time it was not Qi Tanying who made the choice ahead of him, but his boss, Dali Temple Shaoqing Wu Han.

Wu Han appeared in front of everyone in night clothes. Hearing his choice, everyone in the room had different thoughts for a while.

Shen Chao looked at him and said, "Wu Shaoqing, this Miss Qi is the fiancée of your next official. Your choice like this will chill the hearts of your subordinates!"

Wu Han's brows and eyes were cold, and there was no trace of joy or anger on his clear and handsome face.He said: "What is this? If necessary, even my own fiancée can give up."

As soon as these words came out, the whole hall was silent.

Shen Chao couldn't help clapping his hands, "Master Shaoqing is really extraordinary."

Wu Han squinted at him, then turned to look at Yan Li, "Change."

Yan Li immediately refused: "I will not risk A Tan's life."

Wu Han's face darkened uncontrollably, "Cheng Yansi, now is not the time to indulge in love for children."

They found the secret room and the evidence of the ink corruption case in Cangzhou, but there was a private log book inside.Gong Yunniang didn't mention this at the beginning, so he had to ask Gong Yunniang clearly.

Yan Li did not back down.

At this moment, Gong Yunniang, who had been in a coma, suddenly opened her eyes. After seeing Wu Han, she struggled and stretched out her hand towards him, making a rapid ho ho sound from her throat.

Wu Han subconsciously took a step forward, Shen Chao pointed at Gong Yunniang with his sword, and shouted: "Don't come here, if you come here again, I'll kill her."

Wu Han retreated immediately.

Gong Yunniang's eyes widened, her outstretched hand kept grabbing the air, her mouth opened and closed, as if she had a lot to say.

"Shut up!" Shen Chao's expression became sullen, and at this moment, she was still thinking of sending a message to Wu Han.

If he hadn't gotten what he wanted, he would have killed her with a sword.
