My wife is a squeamish bag

Chapter 380 Don't Trust Your Eyes Too Much

After waiting until it was dark, An Beibei still didn't wait for Qi Jingyu to come back.

After dinner, it was another hour, and Qi Jingyu was still not seen.

Now not only An Beibei, but everyone in the Qi family is very worried.

"Do you need me to send someone to look for it?"

Chu Qingfeng asked quietly.

"Thank you, Third Young Master Chu."

"Need not."

The voices of Qi Lushi and An Beibei sounded at the same time.

Chu Qingfeng gave her a meaningful look, which made her scalp tingle.

"Erlang may be delayed by something, maybe he will be back soon. Besides, the dense forest is so big, sending people to look for it is like finding a needle in a haystack, so why bother with all the guards?"

An Beibei twitched the corners of her mouth and said with a false smile.

Just kidding, let Chu Qingfeng send someone to look for it, what if Erlang happens to be moving coal?
"Miss An is right."

Qi Yun nodded in agreement, and then turned to Chu Qingfeng, "Thank you for your kindness, young master, but there are not many people around you, and everything must be for your safety, we'll wait and see."

Chu Qingfeng didn't force it, and nodded lightly, "That's fine."

Another hour.

Qi Jingyu hadn't returned yet, and everyone in the Qi family was worried, but there was nothing they could do.

"Go back to your room and sleep. Perhaps Xu Erlang is staying in the county seat, and he won't be back until tomorrow."

Qi Yun said.

"Grandma, you go to bed first, I'll wait for him."

An Beibei still wanted to guard the gate of the courtyard.

"Erlang's family, listen to your grandmother and go back to bed quickly. Erlang used to come back overnight, so don't worry too much."

Qi Wencai persuaded from the side.

"Yeah, go to bed first, Erlang will be fine."

Qi Lu didn't know whether he was comforting An Beibei or comforting himself.

An Beibei couldn't hold back the crowd, so she had to go back to her room.

After returning to the room, she didn't have the mood to sleep at all, sitting on the bench, her heart fluttered.

Where did Erlang go?

Have you received the message she sent him?

Where did the fire go?
Why haven't you come back yet?

It stands to reason that if Erlang had gone to the dense forest to carry coal, he wouldn't have returned by now.

Unless, he went further afield.

I remember that Erlang told her last night that if it was impossible, he would go to Hualin County to lay new clues and lead the third prince's people to other places.

Could it be that he has already gone to Hualin County?
But when the third prince came to Wangshan Village, it was obvious that he had seen through everything, and the people who stayed in Hualin County might have been set up by him.

If so, wouldn't Erlang be very dangerous?
Thinking of this, Amber immediately felt restless.

She kept reassuring herself that Erlang was very skilled, and he still had sleeve crossbows and gunpowder on him, so there would be no big problem, at most he would come back later.

Maybe Huo'er was delayed in looking for him, or maybe he didn't dare to come back when he saw someone new at home.

But even so, she still couldn't sleep peacefully, so she had to sit on the bench and open her eyes to look at the dawn.

Wangshan Village tonight is destined to be a restless night.

In the middle of the night, several black shadows rushed towards the Qi mansion.

"master."

Chu Qingfeng was half leaning on the head of the bed, closing his eyes and recuperating, when Hei Ying stepped forward and called out.

"how?"

Chu Qingfeng closed his eyes and asked quietly.

"Our people searched the surrounding dense forest for a whole afternoon, but did not find any trace of Qi Erlang."

"Is there any news from the county seat?"

"I didn't see Qi Erlang either, he probably didn't go to the county seat."

Chu Qingfeng slowly opened his eyes, staring at the bright moonlight outside the window, and said quietly: "I didn't go to the county seat, and I can't find it around, where do you think he will go?"

"Could it be that the master suspects that he is going to work for the head of Linglong County?"

Black Eagle frowned.

"Very likely. I just proposed to send someone to look for it. Chu Linglong's reaction was obviously guilty and nervous. It can be seen that she knows what Qi Erlang is doing. As for the rest of the Qi family, it seems that they don't know yet. However, There is another possibility, Qi Erlang discovered that we were in Wangshan Village, so he went to inform others."

Having said that, Chu Qingfeng's face turned slightly cold.

"It's unlikely."

Hei Ying subconsciously denied: "Our people have been hiding in the dark and have not found Qi Erlang's figure. Although he is very skilled in martial arts, as long as he gets close, my people will definitely find out."

"What if the news came from Mrs. An?"

"That's even more unlikely. She hasn't left since we got here."

"Black Eagle, don't trust your eyes too much. If you didn't see it, it doesn't mean it didn't happen."

Chu Qingfeng said calmly, but his eyes were extremely sharp.

Hei Ying lowered his head, "This subordinate knows his mistake."

"Leave this aside for now, is there any news about the Wei and Hu residences?"

"Yes. The information I have found so far is almost the same as what Miss Wei said. Although the two governments are working together, they are doing their own thing, and they are not too involved with other forces. However, Wei Yin is suspected of raising soldiers privately. There are not many people, so I don’t know what their intentions are.”

"What is the relationship between Wei Yin and Qi Erlang?"

"When the Qi family was first exiled to Qing County, life was very difficult, until three years ago, when Xu Yang from the Xu family next door led a team to patrol, they encountered a small group of Nanman cross-border troops. During the fierce battle, Xu Yang fell off a cliff and his life was unknown.

Fortunately, Qi Erlang was very skilled, witty and courageous, and brought back the whole team except Xu Yang, so he was appreciated by Wei Yin, who replaced Xu Yang and was promoted to Baichang.

It was also at that time that Miss Wei fell in love with Qi Erlang at first sight, and she would not marry unless she was a king.

But Wei Yin seemed to disagree all the time, and Qi Erlang was also unwilling.

Until March of this year, Qi Erlang and An Shi hurriedly registered their marriage under the supervision of Hu Shiming, son of the Hu family. Wei Yin was also present at the time, obviously acquiescing.

Judging from the situation at the time, everything seemed to be a coincidence. The reason why Qi Erlang got married to the princess was just to get rid of Miss Wei.

As for whether there really was a marriage contract, Old Master Qi had passed away many years ago, and he traveled a lot back then, so it would take a certain amount of time to find out.

However, judging from the time of An's appearance and the whereabouts of the earrings we found earlier, it is undoubtedly Princess Linglong. "

After hearing Heiying's report, Chu Qingfeng frowned, and pondered: "So, the marriage between Linglong and Qi Erlang was made possible by the joint efforts of the Wei family and the Hu family. Uncle's people?"

Hei Ying was horrified, "Master, could it be that the Seventh Prince is hiding in Qing County? Wouldn't it be very dangerous if the master's identity is revealed?"

Chu Qingfeng shook his head, "Qing County has been calm all these years, and we didn't take too much trouble to find Chu Linglong. Whether it's the Seventh Uncle's intention or Chu Linglong's intention is unknown."

"It's hard to say anything else, but the Wei family should not belong to Princess Linglong."

“How come you see?”

"My master doesn't know that after Princess Linglong married into the Qi family, she only went out once, but disappeared in the county."
