Chapter 114 Summon Zhangqiu Mansion

Late at night, Qiu Shihua's room in the Qiu Mansion.

Tomorrow is the day when Aye Xiumu returns home, Qiu Shihua is lying on the desk and desperately copying something.And the old ledger book that he brought out from Shanchun Hall was spread out and placed on his left hand side.

Recently, whether at home or in Shanchun Hall, Qiu Shihua felt a feeling of being watched.He also tried to secretly entrust the letter to Aye, elder brother or Qiu Mo, but whenever he wanted to take action, there would always be an unknown force hindering him.It wasn't until now that he realized how difficult it was for Qiu Mo to be restrained when she was not married.

After transcribing the last word, Qiu Shihua breathed a sigh of relief, ready to put away his things and go back to bed.Suddenly, a heavy footstep sounded from outside the door.He was taken aback, and immediately stuffed the old account book into the cage next to the desk.

To be on the safe side, he stuffed the transcribed booklet at the bottom of the pile of scrolls on the table, and then looked vigilantly in the direction of the door.

"Who is outside?" Qiu Shihua's forehead was covered with a thin layer of sweat, but his face tried to keep calm.

The door of the study room was slightly pushed open from the outside to the inside, Qiu Shihua's pupils constricted, staring at the door that was about to be pushed open.

With one big foot, he stepped steadily into the study.Qiu Shihua took a look, it turned out to be him.He secretly swallowed, but he was not as nervous as before.

"Ah? Come late at night, what's the matter?"

Qiu Shihua stood up from the chair, walked around to the table, his body just covered the position of the booklet, and bowed his hands to the person in a flat tone.

For a long time, the dark and quiet sky above the Qiu Mansion was pierced by a burst of intense but short-lived sounds of falling objects and knocking of heavy objects.A watchman who passed by the courtyard wall of the Qiu Mansion was startled, thinking that something evil happened to him in the middle of the night.

He touched the bridge of his nose, listened to his left and right ears for a while, and found that there were no more strange sounds, so he muttered, "I'm afraid some daughter-in-law and husband-in-law quarreled again..." and continued walking along with the wooden stick. He patrolled the alleyway, completely forgetting the strange noise just now.

Until the dawn of the second day, in the direction of Qiu Shihua's room, there was a scream of horror that pierced the sky...

The news that Qiu Shihua was unconscious after being attacked by the thieves who sneaked into Qiu's mansion at night didn't take long to reach Qiu Mo's ears.

"What? The fourth brother was attacked at home?!" Qiu Mo had just gotten up and heard the news before the bed even got out of bed.She was so distraught that it all seemed too unbelievable.The curfew system in Chang'an City is so strict, how could a thief who appeared at night jump out of nowhere and sneak into Qiu Shihua's room to steal and hurt people?

"Fortunately, today is the day when Master Da Lang and Mr. Xiumu go home, otherwise..." Shuang Han was also very frightened when she first heard the news.

According to the servant sent by Qiu Qianzhan to deliver the letter, the first person to find Qiu Shihua was the servant who told him to get up in the morning.He didn't find him in Qiu Shihua's dormitory at first, but after searching, he found him lying on the floor of the study.When he was discovered, Qiu Shihua's face was tilted to the side, and there was a pool of blood on the ground behind his head, which was shocking.The front of his clothes was in a mess, and the surrounding items were also turned into a mess.

The first reaction of everyone in the Qiu Mansion was that there was a thief at home. Qiu Qianqing, who returned to the mansion this morning, immediately made a decision. He and Qiu Shirong rushed to treat the unconscious second son. Went to Qiu's house to investigate, and sent a letter to Qiu Mo, hoping that she could return to the Qiu Mansion to assist in the first phase of the Qiu Mansion's inner mansion.

"Where is fourth brother? Are you awake? How is he now?" Qiu Mo grabbed Shuanghan's hand and asked anxiously.She felt uneasy in her heart, wishing she could go back to the Qiu Mansion immediately and visit her family.

"The servant girl asked, and said that the back of the head was hit, and she is still awake... Fortunately, Shiro was still breathing weakly when he was found, and the place where he was lying happened to be covered with a carpet, and his body was still warm when he was found. This gave Uncle and Da Langjun a chance to save his life."

There was no danger to her life, so Qiu Mo breathed a sigh of relief, but this matter was always a bit bizarre, Qiu Mo's sixth sense told her that things were not that simple.

"Where are the rest of the Qiu family? Are they injured? Has the house been stolen?"

Since it is suspected that thieves broke into the house and robbed, there must be some other evidence to support this judgment.

Shuang Han shook her head, and continued to Qiu Mo: "This is the weird place. I heard from the servant that the entire Qiu Mansion was destroyed except for Mr. Sirang's study, and there were no traces of thieves visiting other places, and no one suffered anything. Hurt. Just..."

Qiu Mo felt that all of this happened too strangely.Qiu Shihua had just been arranged to study in Shanchuntang by them, when something bad happened at home.Moreover, the assailant only focused on him, and was not interested in other people's property. Is this normal burglary?
"Just what?" Qiu Mo asked.

"It's just that Mrs. Lu is not well. As soon as she heard about this, she fainted on the spot. Now the big house, and even the whole Qiu Mansion, are in chaos."

Qiu Mo leaned against the edge of the bed, her eyes closed tightly, her fingers rubbed between her brows, and what Shuang Han said kept spinning in her mind.

After Mrs. Tian was arrested, seeing that Qiu Wuniang was not expected to be in charge, the eldest aunt Mrs. Lu had no choice but to support her sick body and take care of all the housework in the Qiu family.But now that something like this happened to Qiu Shihua, as a mother, how could she bear such a sudden blow?Crashing down is almost inevitable.

Now that the Qiu family has completely lost the woman in charge, how can this not be chaotic?

"That's why the second master hurriedly sent a servant to look for you, and wanted you to go back to the Qiu Mansion."

"Where's uncle?" Qiu Mo was surprised that Shuanghan didn't mention Qiu Qianshen, the third bedroom of the Qiu family.He, the top figure in charge of the Qiu family's foreign affairs, even had such a big incident happened in the Qiu family, did he not even make a sound?
