As soon as Jiangmen Jiaojiao opened her eyes, she was paranoid that the prince had come to steal her

Chapter 346 Empty Shell
At this point, Qi Yinran was silent for a moment, and then said: "Then it happened that the daughter of a steward in the house who was in charge of flowers and green plants secretly made a secret promise to Brother Xie, and would always visit him on the pretext of sending flowers and plants, which also annoyed Brother Xie. I’m very upset.”

"Then he left without saying goodbye."

"Did you say goodbye without saying goodbye?"

Xie Zhaozhao raised his eyebrows, smiled helplessly and shook his head, "I think he ran away. The fourth brother is most afraid of being liked by a girl."

Qi Yinran laughed helplessly, and the two chatted about other things.

After dinner, Qi Yinran personally sent Xie Zhaozhao back to rest.

The courtyard where the palace arranged for Xie Zhaozhao to rest was called Zuiyuexuan, and Lu Jingrong was next door.

After Qi Yinran left, the smile on Xie Zhaozhao's face gradually disappeared, and his expression returned to solemn and complicated.

According to Qi Yinran, the fourth brother left a month ago, but Qiu Shui said that after waiting at the foot of the mountain for so long, he never saw the fourth brother come down the mountain.

Who is lying?
Qiu Shui had a token of her fourth brother, and she had known him for a long time, and was most likely Mr. Miao's daughter. She shed tears and was worried that his appearance could not be fake.

But Qi Yinran's words and demeanor seemed very stable and not fake.

Xie Zhaozhao frowned slightly. After thinking for a moment, he went to Lu Jingrong and asked, "What rare treasures did Mr. Lu pick?"

"No."

Lu Jingrong shook his head: "I just took a look...the flowers and plants here are very good, and some of them have high medicinal value. It's a pity that they all belong to others."

"When things get better here, I'll help you get a manor to grow these herbs." Xie Zhaozhao said generously, "Keep your word."

Lu Jingrong was stunned for a moment, then smiled and nodded, "Well, I know you always do what you say... King Qiyang's pulse today is very normal, and it doesn't look like he took some life-prolonging medicine made from a child's skull."

"is it?"

Xie Zhaozhao was silent and said, "If it is used, will the pulse point to it?"

"Yes." Lu Jingrong explained: "That prescription is sinister and evil, and the pulse is also sinister, but King Qiyang's pulse is very normal, that is, the pulse will not be replenished until the end of the road."

"Oh..." Xie Zhaozhao said he understood, and added: "The third young master of Qi told me that the old King Qiyang used the prescription prescribed by my fourth brother before, and he also said that some old gentleman came to the house."

"He is also a doctor... He has very good medical skills and is very good at using medicine. He mentioned it casually, but I didn't want to ask more questions to avoid making him think too much."

"I came here now to borrow your syringe. I want to explore the house a little tonight."

"Give you."

Lu Jingrong handed the syringe to her without hesitation, "There seem to be a lot of guards coming and going in this house, so be careful."

"It's natural."

Lu Jingrong asked again: "Do you need my help?"

Xie Zhaozhao remembered that when he was helping to catch weirdos, he suddenly spoke and almost caused trouble. He immediately shook his head indifferently and said, "Sir, please have a good sleep. I will go by myself."

Lu Jingrong sounded a little regretful: "Okay then."

He has experienced all kinds of weird things in recent days, and he seems to have fallen in love with this sense of adventure.

It's a pity that Xie Zhaozhao doesn't need help.

……

After Xie Zhaozhao returned to Zuiyuexuan, he asked Hongxiu to find Xuan Jing to arrange things for tonight.

"Hong Xiu will pretend to be me resting here. Xuan Jing will take two skilled men with me, and the rest will stay put. Remember, this house is heavily guarded. We must be careful to avoid being discovered and ending up badly."

Xuan Jing and Hong Xiu took the orders.

When he went out, Xie Zhaozhao put on red sleeves clothes and made some simple changes.

The night was dark, and she and Hongxiu were already about the same figure. Their masters and servants had known each other's actions for many years, so it was not difficult to imitate them. No guards at Qiyang Villa raised any eyebrows.After entering the room assigned to Hongxiu, Xie Zhaozhao immediately put on black clothes and masked his face, and jumped out of the back window.

During the day, Xuan Jing had already touched the entire villa.

The defense of the entire villa is indeed very tight. The manager of the villa once revealed without leaving a trace that there were rumors about the mountain spirits and wild monsters in front of him. He was afraid that some young people would come to the palace to cause trouble and affect the old prince's rest, so he strengthened the guard.

There are three places in the villa that are most heavily guarded.

One is the Fushou Hall of the old prince, the other is a family ancestral hall, and the third is a small Buddhist hall in the southwest.

It is understandable that the first two places are heavily guarded. After all, they are very important places.

It is thought-provoking that a small Buddhist temple in the southwest corner must be heavily guarded.

Xie Zhaozhao made a gesture to Xuan Jing.

She went to the small Buddhist hall, Xuan Jing went to the ancestral temple, and the other two people followed them to provide support.

Xie Zhaozhao dodged the guards all the way and reached the Buddhist hall.

The Buddhist hall is very small and very simple.

The altar table in front of the Buddha statue was covered with dust and had not been cleaned for an unknown period of time.

Moreover, the decoration here is very simple and can be seen at a glance.

Xie Zhaozhao was extremely suspicious in his heart. He checked everything carefully and made sure that there was nothing unusual here. There were no organs or secret rooms, but there were indeed many guards outside.

It took a lot of trouble to get in.

Xie Zhaozhao's expression was complicated for a moment. When he heard the agreed signal coming from outside, he knew he couldn't stay for long, so he left immediately and returned to Zuiyuexuan.

As soon as she arrived, Xuan Jing came back and shook his head at her.

"There's nothing unusual in the ancestral hall. Maybe it's just because it's a ancestral hall, so the guards are tighter."

Xie Zhaozhao nodded, "Okay, that's it for tonight. Go back and rest, and we'll talk about it tomorrow."

……

Fu Shou Tang

Qi Yinran personally wiped the hands and face of the old King Qiyang, carefully put down the tent, and then stood up and went outside.

A steward was waiting there, hunched over.

"What's wrong?" Qi Yinran asked.

"Go back to the young master, after Miss Xie Qi returned, she and her men went to the ancestral hall and the Buddhist hall not long after."

"I went anyway..." Qi Yinran lowered his eyes and smiled lightly: "It seems that she really didn't come just for father's medical treatment. She doesn't believe what I said at all."

"We haven't seen each other for more than ten years. The little girl has become so alert and powerful, but she doesn't show any abnormality on the surface."

The steward said hesitantly: "What should we do now?
Qi Yinran took a deep breath, raised his head and closed his eyes without speaking.

Now... what else can I do?
From the day King Dingxi's men appeared in Qizhou, everything was no longer up to them.

Now the Xuanjia Army came secretly and hijacked the Qizhou military camp.

He guessed that King Dingxi had also secretly returned here.

With only their current abilities, how can they fight against the imperial court?
Fortunately, everything that needs to go has already gone.

Now all that's left is him, his father, and this empty shell, and that's it... just support it day by day.
